FYI on links from message boards

Please be careful when opening links from anyone on the MT boards. I had a word question and posted it to XXXXX (this is the board that the company I work for prefers us to use). Instead of answering my question, someone posted to look at the link that they listed. This link had the answer to my question, but it also transmitted spyware/problem to my computer. Just a warning, especially for new MTs - I had to learn the hard way - and am going back to my books instead of searching the internet or message boards for answers to my questions.

other MT message boards
 I was just wondering how many of you go to other MT message boards and if this is your favorite. I have lots of them posted on my favorites but this is the only one I check every day. Once in a while I might check the others but I'm usually bored after a few minutes. How about the rest of you?
staying away from message boards
Two years into MT I found message boards. I had some small complaints about my job and was kind of in a love/hate stage of my relationship with MT. Reading the boards with people complaining so much really put me more in that frame of mind to the point where I started hating my company and hating transcription in general. When I left the job I had at the time and started a new one I vowed no more message boards because I felt they had poisoned my attitude, which was easily influenced at that time. I stayed completely off message boards for the next five years and now am back (obviously), but that gave me enough time to get more established with my company and actually know and like my career enough that reading a lot of MT complaints doesn't bother me now.
I think it's because most of the ones who post to the message boards
.
Shorthand works for me on message boards. nm

This is why I basically stay away from the message boards :(
nm
They find it more productive to complain on anonymous message boards
I don't get it either.
Supervisors aren't reachable through anonymous message boards. You have to actually write them or
call them at work.
I am sorry. I meant boards not broads. Now those darn boards have disappeared again.
:
but boards will be dano's boards and that's the issue. no one dare disagree with dano.
yes the boards will be boring with just one-sided opinions but we need to please dano. isn't that the purpose of MT Stars?
Venting-why do people keep putting nm and THEN writing a message?? nm means no message - sm
Please put sm if you have a message and NM if there is no message other than your subject line. It makes it easier when reading these messages. thanks so much and have a nice day everyone.

you come up with the best links!
=)
Here are some links for you
http://www.enchantedlearning.com/crafts/christmas/handwreath/ You can use any paper, but if you use tissue paper it may not even make it home.

Don't have time to look for more, but one time in school we had cheap glass bulb ornaments and we wrote our name and year on them with glue and then sprinkled with glitter. You could probably get bulbs/glitter at dollar store.
You might also want to go the dollar store and look for craft kits. I buy kits every year from a craft store and they usually make 6-12. If the tables in the room were in groups you could just take a paper plate and pour 1 kit out on each and they could share, or you could divide up the items into a baggie and make copies of the instructions.
You could take bagels (from the bakery outlet stores and cheap) and smear with peanut butter and then press in bird seed, attach some thread and hang on a tree near their classroom - unless you are wanting them to have something to take home. Can also use pine cones for this.
Buy some plain gingerbread man cookies and tubes of frosting and sprinkles and let them decorate them.
Do you have any links?

Here are two links
Meditec.com Free Trial Offer, MT Mini Course
http://www.meditec.com/free-medical-transcription-course.pdf (pages 9-27)
Candidate Guide for the AAMT Certified Medical Transcription (CMT) Exam
http://www.aamt.org/scriptcontent/Downloads/CMTCandidateGuide.pdf
(has sample questions, page 11)
If you’re going to test people through actual dictation, I recommend that you make sure they all transcribe one report by the hardest dictator you have. If they can do that, then they’ll have no problem doing anyone else you have.
i did not get all the links until i (sm)
until i upgraded my antivirus software. strange as it seems.
had nothing to do with my browser.
Links
I like these sites...
TheGreatDictator.com All kinds of links!
OneLook.com Awesome if you want to do a fuzzy search (part of a term)
TheAGAPECenter.com Hospitals and clinics by state
Of course, Google.
Good luck!
Where do I buy one... links?
Can you save me some time and give me a link. Thanks a bunch!!!!
you also need to fix the links
Starting from mtstars.com, clicking Forums, clicking Main Board leads you to page not found.
Thank you for the links
Will research them
Here are a few more links:

obviously the other 2 links didn't......sm
the other 2 links I provided evidently didn't hold your interest because voterfraud.org is loaded with the FACTS state-by-state.......if it's too lengthy for your reading comprehension, just open up Ohio and Florida...
ROFL
Send them the links
As an MTSO, you should never give the "answer", but the way you found it, i.e., the links. This way they will 1. learn how to find it themselves and 2. stop bothering you. It does work, even though I must say that every day is a learning process in this field.
Provide me with the links. NM
Goldbird
This site has some links
You can find some links on this page - docs and others.
Cannot get your links to work
Please double check. Thx
I found the other links I had written down.
digiscript, transcripts.tv, and fantastictranscripts. You can Google them to find the websites. The only place I actually ever worked was emediamillworks/FDCH.
links on left, but on my Dell I don't....nm
Here are the best 2 non-commercial links for bariatric

Lots of information out there. Good luck on your research.
Re your comment on CS's site/links
The reason the companies listed don't have MTec and Andrews showing is because they are being posted on CS's webpage and are being paid!! And Not only that YOU get paid some type of commission for being an affiliate, right?? Come on... you CS guys are becoming indentured servants working before graduation for these companies... with the enticement of getting a job with them. How much would they have had to pay a non-student MT to produce this work??? Also take a look at CS's "Board" -- all business people in it for the buck it looks like to me -- how many of them have been MT's LOL...(and also of the same religious affiliation...)it appears more like a telemarketing site. I believe Michele A. started this company out with good intention, but now it appears the company is in it for the buck -- Sorry if I've offended anyone, but that's my perspective. MTec and Andrews not only have their reputations, but they have class and style!!
"The industry has definitely jumped on-board with Career Step, which has the other schools scrambling. You can visit Career Step's page about industry partners to learn more: www.careerstep.com/site/type=mt/page=companiesrecommend-mt (Click on the links, and see for yourself which school leading MTSO's refer you to for training. If even one of them recommends Andrews or mtec, I'd be surprised
Trouble with links on these forums anybody?n/m

I am starting a blog..need links
I am starting a blog about this offshore deal. If you have any links to stories related to the downside of this, links to contact the government or news sources, please e-mail them. I will post a note here as soon as i have it set up...probably later today.
The good news about links...sm
"missing" on that site is that you can add more yourself. That appears to be the whole purpose of the site - to provide links to references (ergo MTReference) that one might need while working.
Anyone can find anything on the internet; you're right about that. But I'd prefer not to be worried so much about that and more worried about doing my job correctly with appropriate references and answers.
Don't register if you are not interested in the site. I, for one, appreciate that it is there.
You should NEVER reply to or open any links from those
That's why they should be immediately removed from this board the minute they appear.
Found links inside....sm
http://www.tucows.com/preview/197766
http://www.sharetool.com/Utilities/Fax/
(several here, some that cost, others for free)
You could probably find others by doing a Google search for "shareware fax programs" or something of the sort. Good luck!!
Medical grammar links?
Hello,
I'm not sure what exactly you're looking for, but there are a lot of links here:
http://www.angelfire.com/mt/medicalinks/
Also, I like:
http://www.medilexicon.com
Actually, It starts there, then carries on will all the company links and ads.

Here are some links I found for lotions and creams...sm
http://www.soapnuts.com/lb.html
http://www.pinemeadows.net/recipes.php#r2
http://www.gentleridge.com/lotion-creams.html
You could probably find more. I did a Google search with the words "scented lotion recipe". As for the solution to your bottle dilemma, I would check with Hobby Lobby or Michael's to see if they can help you.
I have met some great guys online. Here are some links. sm
http://www.millionairematch.com
I find this to be very good.
http://www.match.com
This is for everyone, but I find millionaire match a cut above.
Don't waste your money on PerfectMatch.com as it literally is not much at all.
I would go with the above two. To me, eHarmony is no good. I've tried them all and I have met more men who are very truthful on the above two.
Are we allowed to post links for other sites?
I thought we could not do that?
does anyone have good links for lab/path words and
equipment words and pharmaceutical words? I hate to spend so much on books that can't be kept current. I found accessdata.fda.gov and rxlist.com in a post farther down and already have them book marked. TIA!
