Firstly, yes, God bless our troops!

Secondly, we have a Constitution that guarantees our freedoms. I, for one, am not about to give up my freedoms for "the war on terror."  This whole premise is insane.  Remember democracy?  A government FOR the people, BY the people.  We are about to lose OUR democracy to GIVE IT AWAY to a foreign people who HATE US!  It is beyond my comprehension how people are so naively ready to give up our FREEDOM.  The Constitution, which has been stamped on and spat upon by this regime we have in the WH, also guarantees our RIGHT TO PRIVACY.  What is the matter with you people who are willing to just hand it over?  My grandfather, father, husband, son have fought to KEEP our rights, and you're so nonchalantly give over any and all rights just to keep you safe?  Then, you tell me, who are the cowards?

Firstly, it would depend on the accounts, etc.
Bad accounts - more surely yes, paid by the hour, at the very least $15/hour, with full benefits.

Good accounts, you would most certainly want by the line as some ladies on here claim 2000 lines + a day. Seems those people would lose out.

To make a more even playing field, I would go with hourly. It will probably never happen as long as our sister MTs in India, etc., are willing to work for literally 'pennies,' such as 2 or 3 cents/line...?
No, I think the OP is suggesting throwing a fit to get the troops home NOW.

I second that, and thank you to all of our troops and men/women in uniform who help keep us safe.

awww dolfan. call in the troops. cute.
you lost though.  you resorted to name calling when you could not make your argument.  sweet.  i love it when i see people like you who believe you know something and when logic proves they don't resort to name calling.  it says lots about you and your character. 
Bless you.
Bless you.  I am so glad to hear that there are still good people in the world.
Yes! Bless you!

Bless you!
I feel so much better after hearing your trials. Hope all is well now.
God bless all of you.
My finger will heal in time. I feel so small for whining when you are all faced with such bigger challenges. God bless you.
God bless you
My prayers are with you and your daughter. I have a 5-year-old, and I would be a basket case if I had to endure what you are going through.
Bless you!!
No kidding. This has driven me crazy, but I just re-listened to the wav file and you are absolutely on target!!

So.....bless you and all your children, too! (Doing a happy dance)

Just wait til the QA hears this. She really is a sweetheart, have never had one problem with her, and she and I were working on this one together. But, thanks to you......heheh......I'm one up! :)
Bless you!

Bless you
Finally, somebody that agrees with me:)
God bless you!
You are a saint for trying to rescue your mother like that.  From your post, it sounds like you have been "rescuing" her all your life.  If she is so fragile and you are the only child, you really do have a lot on your shoulders.  I had a similar situation with my stepfather when I was younger, but I didn't handle it well either.  He and my mother eventually divorced (through no fault of mine).  I admire you for being so loyal to your mother.  I agree with the way you are handling things in your situation, nobody knows what anyone else's life is like.  Just know that you have friends and support on here when you need it.  You are a very strong person and I just know that this will turn out right for you.  Just thank God that you are 'there' for your mother.  You will never regret that. 
Bless you all so much!!

I have 2 big tupperware egg plates, so I can get them done and overwith tonight because I think I'm going to have to do all the rest of the food now....geez...it will be all worth it though, it's twins!


Again, thank you all so much!


THANKS! Bless you.

Bless you!
It is sure nice to know that I am not alone!
Bless you Bless you

I will be starting to use Shorthand. I have seen conflicting answers as to yes you can convert to ShortHand and no you can't. I am not real puter savy. I saw directions, but I would rather start from scratch than attempt what they say to do. This will help very much.


Have a great evening.


Bless you! - nm

Thanks so much

I think eventually we'll all have some crisis like this to deal with. Our business is fairly unstable right now. You are not the only Transcriptionist I know of with work issues right now, either so low they are not working or are facing layoff or worse. I am so sorry! I wish you the very best in the job search.
God bless you

I took care of my mom briefly full time before she died last year and it was the hardest thing I ever had to do.  At the same time it was a blessing because we got very close - closer than we had been and we had been very close already.


You're not alone in your struggles. You'll make it through and your mom will have an easier transition because of your help. 


Bless you!
Time to start dusting off your old resume, it sounds like! I wonder if that's their plan - make all the old-timers quit and then hire in new cheap labor? Maybe they're about to get bought by the Q? Sounds like straight out of the Q-book...
God BLESS your mom and your love and

respect for her.  I've been that mom and have only one child, a son, who also knows what I went through to provide him with everything I could inspite of the fact that his now dead father had a portfolio of over 2 million dollars, but hid his assets very successfully.  His father would never pay child support or keep up insurance on my son, would bring lawsuits against me from time to time to try to get custody of our son; he even "kidnapped" him one time and did not return him for three months!!  My now dead ex knew all these things would make me spend even more money and time away from work to deal with those issues. 


However, when our son was with him, he would give our son a minimum of $100.00/day just for whatever he wanted, took off to all places in the world, Israel, France and Spain and once a month they'd go to the Bahamas or Bimini.  This was my X's way of trying to undermine our son's love for me.  Guess what???   It did NOT work!!! 


God bless you Fluffy.
I pray that God's healing energy surrounds Fluffy, that his breathing is stabilized and that he is completely healed. And so it is. God bless.
Bless your heart
I hope you quickly work your way into a better pay range.
God bless the Red Cross

And some people have the nerve to say not to donate to the Red Cross because of not being sure of where the donations are going. Shame on FEMA.


Keep those donations rolling.  We had some little kids who set up a roadside lemonade stand a few towns away from us and they made $50.00 to send to the Red Cross.  Isn't that sweet?


Our local firefighters were out in Wal Mart parking lot holding up their fire gear boots. No signs or anything. We knew what they were doing. Sure I only had a couple of dollars to stuff in a boot, but if every person entering Wal Mart even put in a quarter, it would make a big difference.  What really shocked me was the amount of people that just walked by.


Bless your heart...

you replied with Peace out, & I replied with guns-a-blazin'...what the heck did I do, forget that great thread from yesterday  


my bad...*sigh*


Bless your heart ...
Are you getting enough sleep? That's pretty important!

Also, how long are you up before you start typing? Do you eat breakfast? You need a good mix of protein and carbs before you start typing. Perhaps a little exercise..??

On your expander, slow is fine on adding to it. Limit yourself to 5-10 shortcut entries a day. Write them down and keep them posted on your screen until you can use them without looking at the list. Then take that list down and work on another 5-10 shortcuts. They won't do you any good if you cannot remember to use them. When naming shortcuts, do whatever comes to mind first, whatever is natural.

Don't spend too much time on ESLs if you truly cannot understand what is being said. I don't like blanks either but there is a difference in beating your head against a wall over unintelligible gibberish versus doing a quick (3 minutes is my limit) research of meds, instruments, terms, diseases, etc. Don't be your own worst enemy here!

Working efficiently is not a matter of how fast you are, it is how streamlined you think.
God bless you. What a wonderful way
to reach out to others!

Now that is truly the spirit of Christ in Christmas!!


God bless you and your family.

Oh bless your heart! ...

I'm so happy for your success.  You're an encouragement to me that one day before I finally get out of this profession that I'll be able to experience wonderful financial rewards again, if only for a brief moment in my case.


I appreciate you sharing your experience with us and keeping it real. 


Bless you all for the input....sm
I'm busy printing my invoices this morning. Geesh. Thank goodness I saved every document and kept records!
Thanks for the positive input! Who needs yet another issue these days?
Bless your heart ...
Sometimes the grass is greener on the other side of the fence;  sometimes it's not.  The important thing is that now you'll never regret knowing if you lost that 'perfect opportunity' or not and you were welcomed back with open arms to your true home.  Sincere best wishes to you on your continued success.   
God bless the Katrina victims
God bless all those people..My heart breaks every day over this tragedy and each day it hurts me more and more..New Orleans destroyed, peoples lives destroyed, homes, jobs, animals..through no fault of their own..God bless them all.  I pray they will be able to start over, both mentally and physically, and I pray which ever part of our govt, be it local, state or federal stands trial for this criminal neglect of American citizens..
You need to move. That is terrible. Bless you.

Bless your heart. You won't forget that one again soon, huh. nm

Bless your heart! I wish I knew what to tell you

Flu is hitting hard. I'm surprised you can work this soon. I wish you the best! I didn't have the flu, but caught some kind of "bug" going around and had pneumonia! It was terrible. Took me 3 weeks to get anywhere close to feeling normal. It was very hard to work when I did start back and I was weak for days. Hang in there! I wish you good health soon!


Bless you for doing this for your baby granddaughter! You
It takes such a big heart to take this on. Gld bless you for doing this, and I hope the way is smooth for you both.
Reagan, bless his heart.

Bless your heart, hon. Been there with 2 babies.
I put gel-filled teething toys in the fridge to make them cold; did the Tylenol thing; did the Orajel thing as well.

Honestly, there's not much else you can do. Sometimes if they were a little fussy, I would recline them in my arm and dip my finger in a very cold glass of iced water to cool it and then gently massage their little gums with my cold finger. They would let me. I think the cold numbed and the massage just soothed.

This is one of those stages that it is hard to get through for both baby and parents! I feel for you. I've been up many nights and suffered long days hurting for my little ones.

If it helps, they won't remember the pain. Only you will! lol

God bless you for caring for that child,
dealing with state/CPS, legal system, therapists, nonsense appointments, and meeting her heavy emotional needs to give her a better life. The other posters who are critical of you just have no idea what it's like to take on a large amount of responsibility.

I hope she is feeling better soon. :)


How very sweet, bless your heart!!!!
So few understand or appreciate the things you mentioned. Radiology has its own set of skills which i would find challenging, as long as it has been since i did any. So you are not a 'mere' anything -- you are a MT the same as acute care, only a 1-specialty person. Thanks again for the thoughts!!
Bless your heart! It is tiring to sit all the time. SM
I try to always remember that there are so many people who don't have a job or a decent home. I try to count my blessings but some days, I just lose the motivation. I hope you can find some relief from your health problems. Best of luck to you.
