No, YOU are implying that this mother doesn't want to be bothered with her kids. How do YOU know?

That one bothered me a lot too......
I wasn't over it and then this Amish thing. We were actually planning a trip to that area (Amish) next week but decided on Niagara Falls instead.
Anyway, about the girl in Colorado. I just kept thinking about what her morning with her Mom might have been like. Then she goes off to school and her Mom never gets to see her again. (Obviously I can't help but look at this from a Mom's point of view). I just couldn't even imagine how I could deal with that.
I saw an interview with a woman who says she now prays with her children every morning before they leave the house. I think that is a good idea. I have twin toddlers.....wondering how bad it will be when they are in school. Ahhhhhhh :-(
The thing that bothered me
Was the fact that the doctors told her they wouldn't need her services any longer after today. I didn't hear a word from her. If they had given the job to another transcriptionist, I never would have known. I would have just started work today never knowing that I wouldn't be getting any more work and didn't have a job any more.
since no one has bothered to answer you, I
At MT Stars there are archives - with all sorts of opinions on some of the things you are asking. What with all the off-shoring going on, not sure it's worth your while to do it, whereas CODING and CODERS is booming. The USA is desperately seeking all kinds of coders (medical and hospital billing). Maybe you'd like to check into that......
Best of luck!!!
Yes, they have bothered me for a while now. Taking SM
advantage of stay at home moms.
And please, if you do make that amount of money, I don't want to hear about it. I too do well, as would anyone working for close to 20 years, but that does not go for newbies to this profession or, rather, what's left of this profession.
personally, I don't mind not being bothered (sm)
and being left alone to do my job, make my money, and live my life! As long as I don't have any problems and they don't, I really enjoy not having someone "breathing" down my neck all the time. I consider it one of the perks of my job! Oh, well, to each her own, right?
Thanks for your reply. This has bothered me, along with a lot of other stuff about this blankety bl

I don't understand why you were bothered that she left a message on your machine. sm
How does the 'generic' greeting you have to answer it indicate what type of message someone is supposed to leave? Would you have rather she left a totally informationless message? I just don't get it.
The only person that bothered me at my wedding was the one who wore a white dress. Black is fine.
Why are YOU attacking HER? Just because she doesn't want kids, doesn't mean she needs a psychi

You're funny. Ignorant, but funny.
I don't live in NYC and I don't work out of NYC and I make wayyyyy more than $23 an hour, SandyGIRL.
I'm an employee at the largest national and I make anywhere from $58K to $64K a year.
You don't have to believe anyone but you show your ignorance by telling those of us who make that money that we're full of it.
Hahaha
Sorry, that was not an ASR funny, just a regular ole dictation funny. LOL! nm

So no one here is an Aquarius. MT not a suitable job or Aquarius can't be bothered?
Fine line between genious and madness I have read. Guess MT would push Aquarius over the madness edge huh?
What a funny, funny reply. LOL
You are a genius! I am sorry you are ugly and fat. I feel bad for you, but what I can I do to help? Go to a plastic surgeon.
now that's funny, true, but very funny
Anal Association of Medical Treachery.
Does MQ really seem like they want MTs? It doesn't seem like it
When you make something so complicated, difficult, cumbersome, and frustrating, that sends me the message they aren't really wanting to be in the business. As far as I'm concerned, they have sent me a signal they don't want me to work for them. Wonder who they sent those surveys to.
What? DQS doesn't use
What the heck are you talking about? They are getting ready to put PRD on my machine. Why would they do that if we can't use word expanders?
Just because I am an MT doesn't mean that
transcription. If that's all you have in your life I feel sorry for you. You're a miserable hateful human being and people like you are the reason I started working at home in the first place.
Try to have a nice day.
She probably doesn't know how to use it.

5 OUT OF 10 to me is 50%, doesn't

No she doesn't......
She sounds like someone who's telling it exactly like it IS and knows what it's all about. Things are and have been rapidly changing in our industry and all other industries, for that matter, my dear. There ain't no free lunch any longer....SURPRISE!! Better get with it or you WILL be left out. Not a threat, just facts.................You can take it or leave it, but you'd be wise to take it.....from one sistah to another....
Well said. Like you said, it doesn't
majority of people have had alcohol in their past. People who are more prone to being alcoholics will likely become addicted before they even realize what happened. There is also a component of denial before you admit to the problem. I am not saying everyone that comes from a family with problems will become an addict with something, whether it is food, drugs, alcohol, etc., but it does play a role; and to dismiss that fact, is only being judgmental. "You have a problem; well you created it, bottom line." I think that if you know there is a tendency in your family, you can take measures to stay away from addictions; but sometimes bad stuff just happens to good people. I think we all might have a few problems we aren't exactly proud of. And for someone who overeats and is obese, it is no different than someone who is an alcoholic. I am not talking about people who have medical conditions either that might cause them to be obese, so don't start getting upset people.
I have a huge family history of alcoholics and mental disorders. I myself have some chemical imbalances and have been diagnosed with anxiety disorder and OCD. I recognize that and take measures to be able to live the healthiest life I can.
that doesn't mean we can do anything about it
anyone not getting paid should contact their company and the bank
This was all before 9/11 (which doesn't
excuse Clinton by any means), but has anyone noticed that these outsourced jobs are going into the back yards of Afghanistan and Pakistan? Don't any American officials worry about the potential danger to Americans associated with that?
One does, one doesn't.........
Our Super Center asks to see receipt for big items not in a bag, but our small store across town does not. Our Sams Club has a person that looks at the receipt as you're exiting the store. Every item has to be accounted for that is on that receipt. Also, none of the items are bagged at Sams.
I don't know why my DH doesn't get that!?!
IF MAMA AIN'T HAPPY, AIN'T NOBODY HAPPY. I mean this is common sense! HELLO! :D
doesn't take much for ya does it. YUK.

Doesn't everything? jk

Well...I'm sure he doesn't
like me very much. But, I'm not really concerned with that to be honest with you. He wasn't a very nice person to begin with, and when I tried to be friendly and in a nice manner ask him to please not play his music so loudly so late at night, he basically ignored my requests. I am not a mean person and don't want to cause trouble for anyone, but I felt I needed to do to do something in that situation to make sure that my son and I could get a decent nights sleep. The police cannot tell the person who called them. But I'm sure he probably knew it was me because I had asked him to turn down his music already. He has never confronted me about it though. We just live our separate lives in peace and quiet. :-)
To me, it doesn't.....
I agree. I just wish the pay matched that thought, as I'm sure the street sweepers do. LOL
I'm in my 50s and it doesn't get better *LOL*.nm
Well, actually it doesn't mean a . . .
heck of a lot in the "real" world. If it gives someone satisfaction to get either the RMT or CMT, good for them. However, I would never consider it a real credential. Now R.N., M.D. or even EMT MEAN something and people recognize those. RMT? Registered massage therapist is what that stands for to most people.
Personally, I think the majority of those taking the beta test (at a whopping $90 a pop) are newbies to the field, misled by their online school.
I would love to see the AMA step in and take over all MT issues...now there would be some BIG clout, and some real credibiltiy, if they were in charge. 
Again, it doesn't have to be that way...
Not all companies are all about paying next to nothing and neither are the doctors. If we as MTs refused to visit a physician if they offshored their back office work and convinced one family member or friend to do the same, believe me, that would certainly get some attention.
An organization for the MTs would basically give us what the AAMT won't. Who is going to have better resources than fellow working MTs? Who is going to know who the better employers are? Who is going to be able to bring up an important issue and try to really make a difference with it? I sure hope we aren't going to rely on AAMT for that.
We are in a global marketplace, but that doesn't mean we are out of the ballgame. We need to make US practitioners understand the advantages of having US-based services especially in this field. Besides that, we certainly don't have much left to lose. If we all just took a little time and made a little effort, things might start to turn around. If they don't, at least we gave it a go.
Why come here to ask...who doesn't know..
to live conservatively and QUIT! If you are married or in a relationship with the other person contributing financially, why bother keeping your job? Maybe someone less fortunate than you needs it. This is something to discuss with a financial planner and your family.
I have one like that, but he doesn't
He says - "oh my, oh dear, oh my, oh dear" I actually have to laugh. It's either that or get mad b/c he's single handedly destroying my line count. One night, I put it on speaker and left my husband listen. We seriously thought he was going to sh*t himself, he was getting so worked up over not being able to find the vital signs. Hysterical!
Doesn't it seem odd
that the only way to type enough lines (to make any money) in this profession is to be able to use tons of short cuts and chunk-of-text macros? - - Kind of like having to use steroids to compete in sports now-a-days!!
Actually it doesn't
"Association for Healthcare Document Integrity"
the India part is my own little joke, with more than a grain of truth to it.
Don't know why it doesn't.
x
it doesn't for me
It should but doesn't. I have toggled the CS Expander to "off" and have made various adjustments in the "preferences" for ShortHand to no avail. I still get double expansions or missed letters/word fragments. On another thread, someone mentioned that either ShortCut or Instant Text should work, thus my question about ShortCut (I can't afford Instant Text).
ugh...she still doesn't get it.. nm
never will.
if an MT doesn't know about sm
using reference material and looking up words or is too lazy to look things up for fear they won't make enough money, they should not be in this business. That is what the job IS!
So funny!
nm
LOL!! That is funny. nm

too funny
 girlyman hater, I think you are trolling us here.
the country singer type I have no idea about, but a smart humble guy... science is a plus... bein' good lookin' can't hurt, but I dont want a sweaty singin' cowboy. 
*just kidding, but this is how you sound.
funny
When I first started I thought I heard "bologna amputation" instead of below-knee amputation.
thats funny
That is funny, you are right!! Daycares are better than boarding schools. And I also agree that not everyone is cut out to be a stay at home mom. On the other hand, not everyone is cut out to be a daycare provider and that is what the good parents have to worry about.
OH HOW FUNNY
Thank you for the best laugh I have had all week!!!!!! I am cracking up!!!!!!
SO FUNNY
I don't even work for MQ. you think only some people can use BIG LETTERS in their posts? CRACK ME UP! I am just another MT who is TIRED of hearing all the constant complaining. THANKS
That's funny! THank you!!
.
Now that's funny!
ROTFLMAO. Hope my husband doesn't catch me.
Way too funny! I had one doc that said:
Patient states, "I feel like s--t!" I called my boss and said "I'm sorry, I cant type that in there."
I used to work for an old cranky country doc that actually dictated the chief complaint as: "Doc my b--ls are killing me." I told him when I turned in the completed report that I had changed the chief complaint to: Patient complains of testicular pain. He just laughed and said, "That's why I hired ya!"
