Can't find work...should I start a business?
I am about to finish up my certification at a local college and have been extremely disappointed to find that it seems no one is going to hire me to work for a company because I don't have 2+ years experience....even though I've spent the last 2 years transcribing school work....I am trying to decide if I'd just be better off to take what I've learned and try to start my own business. Financially, I am able to do it, but I'm just not sure how much of a headache it might be. What should I do? I kind of feel like I've wasted a lot of time and money. I'm pretty confident that I can do the work, but how can you prove that to someone who just wants to know if you have experience? I just don't know what to do.
find referrals or start searching
I don't know anyone who gets massages, so I have to go through the search process (yellow pages). Try one, if that doesn't work, try another. One who works on athletes is a good bet. When I call and talk to them, I tell them exactly what my problem is and what I'm wanting -- very deep tissue, therapeutic massage to work out the adhesions in the arms and lots of upper back/shoulder work. Ones who have been around awhile have worked on many with this exact problem. Unfortunately, not all of them will work for YOU, so it's a matter of trying one for a few months, then evaluating how you feel. If you're not better by then, move on. I just left one who I was SURE would help because of her style (rolfing), alas the arms got worse. I have one now who does exactly what I need. imho, gadgets and pills may relieve some pain, but they don't straighten out the muscles that's causing the problem. (btdt) If you can't go the professional route, get a shiatsu massager thingie, and dig that into your arms, shoulders, upper back and neck. They're all connected. The tingling I get in my little and ring fingers is relieved by working out the back of my shoulder. (I can't do my own massage well enough myself to maintain, but it's good for spot treatments.) The massage is painful, but it's worth it to keep my profession, and lifestyle, alive for me.
anyone know where to find samples of flyers to start your own business?
I want to make my own and would like to look at how a few are formatted. Thx.

PS..arrogant to say the least
Arrogant?? Not at all. sm
How does giving an honest response to a direct question regarding income equate arrogance?
I'm amazed each and everytime I read some of these posts that people can be so hateful, bitter, catty, and jealous.
I hate transcription and am totally burned out. I do just enough to get by. If another MT is typing their fingers off and making a comfortable living, I say "Good for them!" How can you begrudge someone who works hard for being successful?? Would it have made you feel better about yourself if she had posted that she is struggling to make ends meet and can't feed her family? Good grief people.
You talk about QA being arrogant, BUT
You post all the time and it is very visible how much you are actually arrogant. You have such a terrible attitude and nasty mouth. Even as the abbreviation you used it is uncalled for. Your opinion is NOT the only one that matters. You are one person i would just LOVE to meet in person. I would be the first to put you in your place right then and there!
I know that. You're the arrogant one here.
Why would I want to be a doctor anyways? I have my reasons for being in MT. Direct patient contact and long hours don't fit into the life plan. Nobody here has to explain themselves to you. The truth is that nobody even likes you because you're such a nasty, mean person. That's why you're here verbally abusing strangers on the Internet. Have you kicked any dogs lately?
Too arrogant for me and I think he prefers men. nm
I agree. You are arrogant.

I have no issues at all. I'm just saying that the OP is being condescending and arrogant.
And if there are any issues going on, they seem to be coming from a person who needs to analyze any posts in diagreement with their opinion as if that disagreeing poster must be crazy and that simply isn't the case.
No I don't think doctors are arrogant and inconsiderate as a whole.
Because they don't dictate the way we like isn't a personal thing against us. Some have skills with dictation that others don't. Like public speaking, some can, some can't. Doctors do have lives and problems and patients outside of trying to dictate patient records.
It's how incredibly arrogant this administration is!
How can you trust anything that comes from anyone in this adminstration's mouth? Starting at the very top!! I can NOT wait until his dictatorship is over. I am really praying that the Democrats get back in office. I can not stand the Bush administration's air of superiority. I don't appreciate being made to look foolish on the world stage. Bush and his cronies are an embarrassment to this country. I can not wait until their regime ends!!
No, I was agreeing that Mary's arrogant.
;)
I dunno
If you are dressed modestly and stone cold sober and have the unfortunate coincidence of being somewhere where there is a rapist or killer and you become his victim, I guess you were in the wrong place at the wrong time? No, that's not true. You would be a victim and that person who be wrong. That is what everyone would say. So, because she was drunk, she deserves it more?
I am not saying it didnt increase her chances of something bad happening. All I am saying is that she is still a murdered young woman, someone's daughter, and she STILL doesnt deserve to have her life taken away from her by some psycho.
Gee, I dunno...
why don't you ask these heterosexual pedophiles?
Dunno'
You've have to ask the supervisor. I'm too busy typing to be running around asking the others how many lines they've type. I just worry about myself, maybe something you should consider doing eh?
dunno - but I get 7.2 CPL for ME.....nm
I dunno
I have no idea, although I was kind of thinking along those same lines. This guy is killing me this week.
Not nearly as arrogant and inconsiderate and downright exploitative as most MT companies n/m

I personally don't. I think she's arrogant, pompous, and in general, a big mouth who's ful
Aren't you sorry you asked? (LOL!)
you sound arrogant to me. "unfortunate family members?"

I dunno... at my old job the doc does peck away at a PC - sm
to put a few things like BP, Wt., Resp., etc. into the EMR, but they also still dictate notes. Some are on templates, others are full-on, long office visit or H&P notes. Depends on the doc's style. Some work is still done in house, and a majority of it is sent out to services. I now work at a service, and my accounts all use an EMR. I still have mostly long, detailed notes from there, and the EMR seems to have only taken over the absolutely most simple & repetetive of standardized notes.
That is weird! I dunno why?

Please explain what was snippy, rude, arrogant, or insulting in her post.
Sorry, but that's the attitude YOU put forward. You're the one ranting about not being able to find quality MTs. You use the same nickname and the same style as someone who posted the same topic a few days ago. I think you knew that would incite a riot. Maybe the MTs should start an MTSO bashing post and explain the real reason some MTSOs can't find decent MTs. You reap what you sow. If you're only offering newbie rates, you're only going to get newbie applicants. Maybe it's YOU that is the reason you can't find quality MTs.
Do you think doctors are generally arrogant and make a lot of money and so inconsiderate of us?
I had been listening to several breast onco dictations by the same female dictator who kept on yawning that it was so annoying...made me want to post a complaint to a forum of mother MDs (though I was not quite sure where I would post it) which I previously run into...
I then saw under the General Discussion board this thread:
http://www.mommd.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php/ubb/get_topic/f/1/t/000236/p/1
That made me feel like reaching out to the sleepy doctor who was probably not being paid for that time she takes to dictate about her patients (she apparently let them pile up before dictating) and just let her head rest on my lap (I am a female). Maybe she did not have enough sleep, or not even enough time to enjoy her family...
Excuse me? Arrogant for buying a house for a family member that was sm
about to become homeless? I think not. You sound like my ungrateful, jealous sister in law who can't stand anyone else to succeed. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. They were unfortunate at the time and we bailed them out! Ask them, they will tell you where they would be had my husband and I not put our credit on the line for them.
As Americans....
All I see us doing is "convicting" Natalee and her mother. I just want to know why some come to the defense of the ones that are thought may be guilty and the ones that are actually being held, yet at the same time are so ready to tear apart the victim and her family. I mean come on, let's complain about the mom's make up for crying out loud, or the fact that she is distraught and saying things that aren't right. PLEASE PEOPLE. Get real.
Believe me, when we Americans are
fed up with anything something will be done!! What do you think the original American Revolution was about??? I know, I know....so many Americans have become just "sit on your butts watching TV and let someone else handle it" idiot! But I do have faith in plain ole common horse sense. This is our country and we must do and shall do what is necessary to keep it that way. People will rise up when the situation gets bad enough and quite honestly, I think we are almost there, don't you?
spy on all Americans....did you not...sm
Did you NOT see all the newswires on this very subject about the govt spying via Google's new desktop? Read and then go to Google and read some more!!

Google Copies Your Hard Drive - Government Smiles in Anticipation
Consumers Should Not Use New Google Desktop
San Francisco - Google today announced a new "feature" of its Google Desktop software that greatly increases the risk to consumer privacy. If a consumer chooses to use it, the new "Search Across Computers" feature will store copies of the user's Word documents, PDFs, spreadsheets and other text-based documents on Google's own servers, to enable searching from any one of the user's computers. EFF urges consumers not to use this feature, because it will make their personal data more vulnerable to subpoenas from the government and possibly private litigants, while providing a convenient one-stop-shop for hackers who've obtained a user's Google password.
"Coming on the heels of serious consumer concern about government snooping into Google's search logs, it's shocking that Google expects its users to now trust it with the contents of their personal computers," said EFF Staff Attorney Kevin Bankston. "If you use the Search Across Computers feature and don't configure Google Desktop very carefully—and most people won't—Google will have copies of your tax returns, love letters, business records, financial and medical files, and whatever other text-based documents the Desktop software can index. The government could then demand these personal files with only a subpoena rather than the search warrant it would need to seize the same things from your home or business, and in many cases you wouldn't even be notified in time to challenge it. Other litigants—your spouse, your business partners or rivals, whoever—could also try to cut out the middleman (you) and subpoena Google for your files."
The privacy problem arises because the Electronic Communication Privacy Act of 1986, or ECPA, gives only limited privacy protection to emails and other files that are stored with online service providers—much less privacy than the legal protections for the same information when it's on your computer at home. And even that lower level of legal protection could disappear if Google uses your data for marketing purposes. Google says it is not yet scanning the files it copies from your hard drive in order to serve targeted advertising, but it hasn't ruled out the possibility, and Google's current privacy policy appears to allow it.
"This Google product highlights a key privacy problem in the digital age," said Cindy Cohn, EFF's Legal Director. "Many Internet innovations involve storing personal files on a service provider's computer, but under outdated laws, consumers who want to use these new technologies have to surrender their privacy rights. If Google wants consumers to trust it to store copies of personal computer files, emails, search histories and chat logs, and still 'not be evil,' it should stand with EFF and demand that Congress update the privacy laws to better reflect life in the wired world."

You all must be the Americans sm
Do you have any idea how it feels to natives of other countries who speak a different language, when Americans go there and insist that everyone speak English with them? Not even the courtesy of being able to say please or thank you in any language other than English. It is rude. It is selfish and it is no wonder that much of world holds this opinion of Americans...rude, selfish, bigoted and mean!
Not only that, I have been around these boards long enough to notice that MOST OF YOU aren't very articulate. I watch many of those acting as "grammar police" are no better. So many of you cannot spell and will not learn (or even use the spellchecker). Overall, many if not most of your have a rather tenuous grasp of the English language. It is sad to remember that you all are MTs.
i dunno, maybe 20? it varies depending
on hot topics, mental duldrums, needing breaks from bad dictators, etc. Its usually very momentary.
Gee, I dunno. Maybe the way she tongue kissed
they did that a lot while growing up?
I dunno about that. My books are packed away and SM
I use Google all the time - then again, I do only one type of work and I have many years' experience. If I got into something new, I'd probably have to dig them out myself.
I dunno...Al-Qaeda is everywhere, so what does it matter?

I dunno know - leave it up to my accountant. That is what I pay him for. nm

I dunno if you're wrong or not...
or even a shrew or not. If it were me, though, and in fact it was me a couple of months ago, I'd not go out to lunch a couple of times to be able to get my keyboard. How much is this ergonomic keyboard you are needing anyway? When my ergonomic keyboard bit the dust a couple of months ago, I got on e-bay and got mine for $8.00 ($1.00 bid, $7.00 S&H). It came right away and my soreness and achiness for those few days went right away! But, even though this keyboard retails $50.00, I am wondering how much the one you want costs; way over $100.00? I guess what I'm getting at is I'd just take my kids to the park with Colonel Sanders AND get my ergomic keyboard too. I am sorry that your husband responded so coldly. My husband would bend over backwards to help find a for me to get the keyboard, but I can't see where I'd even make it his problem. I would just adjust my budget so I could get my keyboard and let my husband know what I was doing to be able to get it (and this is what I did a couple of months ago). I guess I don't see how this is such a huge issue; we're only talking about a couple of weeks, right? Of course your health and well-being is of great importance, and an ergonomic keyboard is a high priority because of your symptoms, but would it be that awful to adjust your budget just one time so you could get the keyboard? I guess I don't get to get out that much anyway, so missing a couple of lunches with friends wouldn't be that bad for me!
I've totally missed something here I am sure, right?
Anyway, I do hope your symptoms get much better soon; take care of yourself, especially regarding CTS.
I dunno about that - do you know what horseshoers make

please don't condemn ALL americans...sm
PLEASE do NOT condemn ALL Americans for what the Ignorant Americans do......most Americans are NOT this ignorant and would never do something like some of these people *owned* up to doing.....
HE is disrespectful of ALL Americans
She is completely right. She has a right to her opinion and she is free to express it on this board. This man has disgraced us on the world stage and is not deserving of respect in my opinion. He certainly did not respect the 3500+ soldiers that died fighting a trumped up war. He does not respect the American people when he disdains public opinion and pushes his own agenda. This is a free board and as far as I know nobody's children have any desire to read anything on this board.
Most difficult: Americans!
I absolutely cannot get the American accents in which the doc sounds like he/she is running an auction. At least with the ESLs I can get into the rhythm. Not with these guys. Although once I figure out what a grunt or a cough means I make a normal LOL.
I had some decent Americans,
some decent nurses, and then started getting probably the worst dictator on my account. Is 15 blanks a problem? :o}
It is because she HAS a job, which many Americans would love to have right now.
She is going to quit her job to get the assistance. She is not in need of it as she thinks she is. When people abuse the system, it runs funds down and then the people that truly need the help don't get assistance. If she in fact had lost her job, I would feel differently, but she has a paying job. Why can't she use the money she earns to pay for insurance? If what the posters below are saying is true, this is not a surprise pregnancy, but planned. Shouldn't they have included in their plan to have a baby a way to pay for it? I would love to have another kid, but I would never dream to do it on taxpayer money. Why should someone else have to pay? That is what I wrong with America. Too many feel so entitled to live the life they want yet don't want to work for it.
I dunno. The same woman has done my hair at FS for years. I try to go to
fancier places sometimes, but I always go back there. She's really a good hair cutter.
Dunno.... the QA's who post on here sound pretty
Reading about how perfect they all say they are, how they never make a mistake, and all the rest of us are bastically illiterate, ou'd think they invented medical transcription, and possibly even the English language.
Opinion of Millions of Americans
Hate to tell you, Bush lover, this is the opinion of millions of Americans..Shrub is a failure, a jerk, an idiot, a warmonger. This country has not been this divided and torn apart since the Vietnam war. Bush was a uniter and compassionate conservative, yeah, right..The guy is a lying murderer and he alienates the world and half of American from him and his followers, who follow blindly, even though we have proof he lied about this illegal war, his advisor, Rove, outed a CIA operative and so much more..The guy is terrible and thank GOD he will be gone in three years.
Americans don't want to work...that is just hogwash.
not that Americans dont want to work, we just
What we deserve, but paid what it actually costs to LIVE in America, to afford the insanely high medical care, insanely high gas, insanely high food, etc. We can never work for less than what we get because we'd then have to move to a different country where we can afford their cost of living. Its all backwards. Thats why CEOs are all slime...they're sitting pretty up there and do not care what goes on because they're comfortable and well taken care of.
