For goodness sake, if you're going to drag the Bible into it

you might read the part about man being created separately in God's image. In the Old Testament, there are distinctly different punishments for killing a man and killing a beast. Now, no doubt God loves animals and they will be in heaven, but I can assure you, God has not created man and animal on the same level.

It was a joke for goodness sake. Get a sense of
What's the problem? You don't like jokes, you feel the need to defend George, or someone steal your thunder? Sheesh.
For goodness sake, this has nothing to do with MQ it is about a totally different company I am
looking into. Geez.
For Pete's sake, you're not terminating a pregnancy, you're just typing a report after the
It's already been done before you even hear about it, and NOTHING changes regardless of whether you or someone else types it. Sheesh.
For Pete's sake, if you're too sick to work,
call in sick!!
This past week I've had chronic sinus drainage and a nagging,constant cough that has kept me up most of the night. Felt okay during the day,(although typing speed decreased significantly).Was able to take cat naps off and on during the day to make up for lack of sleep, otherwise,I wouldn't have hesitated to take a day or two off.
If I'm "really" sick,I call in for a sick day without hesitation!!
my goodness you're insecure

really as skilled and hardworking as you've always sounded, apply to Wedmedx. They're looking for employees, full and part-time, right now, and a skilled employee working a genuine 35 to 40 hours a week consistently can pay the mortgage, the car, buy the grandkids nice presents, take a ceramic-painting class, join friends for lunch out, and decide not to travel on vacation this year because the exchange rates are so awful. Best wishes.)
Leave. For goodness sakes, if you're unhappy
get out. Stop this juvenile whine and complain behavior.
The only thing more ridiculous than your incessant whining is the fact that you have NO IDEA yet what the new plan is. You have nothing to base it on. What? The 20% ASR reduction? That was foretold upfront...it was a pilot program and the rates would be adjusted later. Well, later is here, people. This is not a new business concept. This happens all the time. The phone company does it with new services, industries do it with new products. You have an option -- opt out of ASR and transcribe. YOU HAVE A CHOICE.
Stop trying to incite panic. It's embarassing for supposedly mature, intelligent people to be acting like this. Grow up.
That is exactly what I meant. Evil for the sake of evil, not for the sake of satan
who is the essence of evil in Christianity. Call evil what you want it exists in every nation and every culture.
Having said that, did not the terrorists call America the Great Satan after their attack on 9/11?
They will have to drag me away...
kicking and screaming from my 5.1. I've been using it since it first came out and hoping to retire before losing it. I convert to Word before returning to client.
Open ES first, then drag them into box. nm

Grab it with your mouse and drag it over to where you want it.
Single right click, hold, drag.
If she uses ftpsurfer she can just drag and drop
Are you saying the files are already in digital format and they are already on her PC? All she would have to do is open the file where they are at, minimize the window, click on ftpsurfer, click on your folder to open it, then drag and drop. So I would try another free FTP utility, like ftpsurfer.
Do you mean the one where you drag files or programs to the
start menu and right-click the shortcut to assign your shortcut keys?
It's all good. Doesn't Star look like a guy in drag?
Especially since she lost weight. So who cares about her husband's "orientation"? I'm not so sure about Star.
Use Windows Explorer, drag and drop. sm
OR you can copy specific files/directories from your main drive to your back up drive.
We used to cruise the main drag, race on the old highway, and
stop at the burger joints to see where the parties were. The kids don't get to do that any more because the cops bust them for loitering, curfew, etc. In fact, that's the first thing DH and I noticed about each other was our cars while cruising the drag. He had a red AMC Javelin and I had a red Dodge Coronet.
It's your work flow that's such a drag, not you or your software. Wow! Sounds like an

Just drag and drop using Windows Explorer. No need for special software.
This is all stated assuming that you are using a Windows Operating System, XP or Vista. Put a blank CD into your CD drive, open Explorer, find the file(s) and/or folder(s) you want to put on the CD, left mouse click and drag them to the CD drive.
You can drag options back from the tools customize dialog.

I would do it again for my kids' sake, but sm
not because I enjoy it. If I could ever figure out what else I could do at home as a professional of some sort (rather than selling something), I'd be back to school to do it.
For heaven's sake! It's not THAT bad!
You can go to CareerStep, one of the "top 3" schools for about $1,600, and if you work at it you should be able to finish it in 9-12 months. As for purchasing equipment, you'll get a foot pedal with your course and Express Scribe (the software you'll use to actually transcribe) is free. You will have to buy a few reference books and some fairly cheap software--that all shouldn't run you more than $400-$500, tops. I'm assuming you already have a computer, or else how could you have posted this note?
Now, there are jobs being taken over by software and being outsourced to other countries. And there ARE doctors who dictate TERRIBLY. But there are still some decent jobs out there and decent doctors as well. If you work at it and sell yourself well, you should do okay. Good luck!
For Heaven's sake... don't do what I did!
I accepted a position with another company, turned in my resignation when I received the acceptance letter from the other company. Friday will be my last day on the job, and I have not heard from the other company as to downloading software on computer and my first day is supposed to be Monday. My employer has already hired someone in my place, so I can't ask for my old job back. The past several days I've sent out about 5 or so resume's to various companies.
for sanity's sake
I have been an MT/homeschooling mom for 7 years now. I work from 5:30am-9am and then from 7-10pm. We school from 9-12:30. I actually sit with my kids the whole time. They will do reading and some independent work in the evening(homework). From 1-5 is our park time, ballet, karate, etc. Fridays we have off for co-ops, field trips, and errands. This works great for us. Try finding a homeschool support group in your area so that you can get more involved. Your kids need it also. I am in Florida and here kids are allowed to participate in public and private school extracurricular activities. If you have older kids this may be a good option for them as well. But by finding a support group it will give you some interaction.
Please, just for my own sake, what money
do you think you would make as opposed to what you make per week now? Give me a ball park figure on your salary, do you work full or part and I will get back with you on this and let you know what I make doing VR, ok?
And for heaven's sake....
don't dictate in the bathroom. That's waaaaaay more than we want to hear!
For Pete's sake!!!
English is our official language. People should speak English fluently before even being hired for a job here unless it is of course labor, but even those people should be required to be in school learning English before being promoted to anything that has any level of responsibility!! I agree with the original poster and that does not make me a bigot. I am married to a Mexican and have half Mexican children but my husband was in school learning English when we were dating and I could type his dictations all day long if he were a doctor because he learned it fluently or I wouldn't have married him!! It gripes the heck out of me when I hear MTs make excuses for these people, and I am not talking about all foreigners. I am talking about the ones who speak such horrible English that it does not even sound like English and I would say after 9 years of doing this that equals about 2/3rds of them!! They should not even be allowed to practice medicine here. Would you want one of them operating on you?? Come on let's get real here!! Even my husband agrees so don't be calling anyone bigots when we are just being honest and real!! Also, if I were a business owner which I have been in the past I would never hire someone who did not speak English that is unintelligable and then I would probably be sued for discrimination, what a joke!! Don't you people realize that they are also affecting our business community, our economy??? Businesses cannot operate when there is bad communication or miscommunication, etc. Haven't you had things messed up because of getting an Indian on the phone from New Delhi and having to force them to put someone else on the line that can understand what you are even saying?? I had a plane reservation messed up for my 15 year old daughter flying across country because of a man screwing it all up because he did not speak well enough English to understand what I was saying. I won't name the airline but you never reach an English as a FIRST language speaking person and I will NEVER fly with them again!! People this is not just about our jobs, this actually can be dangerous!! I ALSO have discontinued all business with any of the other companies I did business with previously who when I call are Indian. That is a whole different issue though, the outsourcing, but they both gripe the heck out of me and it has nothing to do with them personally. I love everyone equally. I don't care what nationality they are, but you have to look at this practically not emotionally......
Oh for pity's sake
How about Americans get used to the fact that their country is a mixture of different peoples/culture/languages and try just a little harder to understand and be understood?
Or would that interfere too much with the American Arrogance factor? :)
For Pete's sake, let it go
Seriously. Let it go. See my post above re paranoid nuts.
I use that phrase all the time and my African American girlfriends call me Casper I'm so white.
Exactly where would that be and what Bible do you have?
why, because they don't KNOW their Bible
which says it is good for ALL to marry, to avoid fornication, not to mention the perverts that go into the priesthood because they see it as an opportunity for abuse, by the structure of secrecy.
Living God's plan is not repressive, for 'the Truth shall set you free'. Satan will use you up and then spit you out when he's done. Chose whom you will serve, for you will either serve one or the other, God or Satan. As for my and my household, we will serve the Lord.
bible
I dont read your bible because I dont believe in your bible or religion.
According to the Bible ...
Proverbs 24:13 Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die.
Yep, that's what it says - King James Version. The word "beat" translated from Hebrew means to strike lightly or severely.
The BOS is not the MT Bible...Unfortunately,
too many have bought into it and believe it is the ultimate authority on anything grammar/format related. IT IS NOT!
It was written by some who have decided on their own to change many age-old rules. The second edition revised and reversed info from the first edition (and, yes, the BOS says I should use "1st" and "2nd" rather than spelling them out).
Thankfully, MOST doctors prefer basic grammar, punctuation and format rules and are not even aware of the BOS, let alone the AAMT.
Those who tell you otherwise are either misled or uninformed. There will be a third edition soon that will again reverse and revise . . . it's all about making money.
Stick to the basic rules you have learned throughout your life, and you should be fine . . . unless you run into a duped QA person.
the BOS is not our bible and many of us...nm
Not sure what Bible you have...
but mine says nothing of women in dresses only, only men working, women having long hair, etc. There are a sector of believers in my community where women only wear dresses, but high end clothes, their hair stays long, but it is really staylish, and they do work outside the home, in high positions actually. A lot of people take the Bible out of context. Jesus does not speak lowly of women at all, women were held in high esteem in their community and were given postitions of leadership in the church. A good book would be "What Paul Really Said About Women" by John Temple Bristow. This is a great eye opener for a lot of men as well who are taught to believe that women are somehow inferior to them.
The Bible says....
heaven and h-ell are even lowercase in the Bible.
Glad you have your own space for your sake SM
Lots to discuss and now you can do it without us peering over your shoulder and commenting right and left. :) Good luck to all of you!
Oh, for Pete's sake, just hire another MT...sm
to cover the account if you want to take a vacation. If you are working as an IC, you should be able to pay more than enough to make it worth her while. Ideally, you get enough work to hire one more person to work with you, and the two of you work together to cover off times and sick days. Honestly, can't anyone think their way out of a paper bag?
For heaven's sake, where is your lawyer?
Your divorce is final in 2 weeks, and you're asking this super important question to MTs on a message board? PLEASE ask your lawyer.
For Cripee's sake! The question was
whether she had to work on the holidays if asked to do so. IF this person even had the slightest idea of what being an IC meant, he/she would never EVER have had to ask a bunch of strangers what she had to do! Basic running-your-own business 101. The IC is the one who calls the shots. Does The Donald ask his cooking staff if he has to work on Christmas? Does a CEO call his secretary and ask if he should work? ICs are ICs - the entire point is that YOU are your own boss and call the shots - not vice versa. Thus the danger to our industry for the REAL ICs - those who are so ignorant of this basic business practice are nothing more than employees, allowing the doctors to slack and not pay taxes, etc. And that is the antithesis of being an IC.
Oh for heaven's sake...if she knew how to...
do that, she wouldn't have a question! Anyway, what platform do you use? Most of the time you will find a folder in the "My Documents" folder or in the hard drive (go to "My Computer" and click on your hard drive--usually C:) by the same name as your platform. Inside that folder will be your templates. When you get there, you can press Ctrl and F together. A screen will come up asking what you want to search for. Click "All files and folders". Where it says "All of part of the file name:" put "*.dot" (without the quotes). This will find all of the templates within that folder. Hope this helps.
Not everyone who follows the Bible is Catholic!!!
I wouldn't know about that. I'm not a priest nor do I have one.
How can it be against the Bible when it wasn't even
invented yet? You're saying that people who read their daily horoscope in the newspaper are against God and the Bible? It's not like we're smoking bidis, sniffing incense, and visiting the palm readers or fortune tellers. Entertainment purposes.
Please read YOUR bible.
I believe you might run across the saying Just Not Lest Ye Be Judged?
Get marital counseling for the sake of your children.
You probably could stay there your entire life and manage but the kids deserve better.
Oh, for Heaven's sake - if you don't like it just don't reply. Grow up.

Oh, for cripes' sake. I just voted Thumbs Down
I guess you have to vote Thumbs Up to get the 10 votes to have it removed (Reason drop-down: Solicitation of business, or something like that ... I can't vote again now to see what it was)
I say HA HA! Why not read the Bible. That is all you need to know for your life!
