B.S. in HIM, earned RHIA, didn't want to be management, found MT came easy to me. nm

they found out -- see message
because someone I used to work for filed a complaint with the local police department and told them I was operating without a business license. She had no idea; she apparently just filed a complaint, hoping she was right. Of course, as I mentioned earlier, I didn't know about this law, so I, being the honest person that I am, procured the license when the complaint was filed. That was the first I had heard that MTs working from home have to have a business license.
Ooops, I see you found what you were looking for (see message)
Good for you! I think it is a good idea to also get TSWB, it is a GREAT reference.
Help with "no operating system found" message sm
Laptop with Windows XP shows "no operating system found" - desktop working. Did this before and comes back with turning on and off, went into "setup" and shows I have so many MB stored on hard drive but cannot get system to boot, misplaced XP CD. This time I cannot get it to come back and depend on laptop at end of day to research, e-mail, etc., as desktop for too many hours is too painful. Any way to get the Windows XP to start up so I can do a system restore to an earlier time? Perhaps an update did this. It is "dead" but everything is still on there, lots of "good stuff" - a Dell so no one else will touch it and I can't get online with them as my other computer is not a Dell.

message re. "no operating system found"
No warranty- a client co. added some software to the XP which was very expensive, i.e., voice, lots of extras I used for over 2 years, "loaded" and it did this to me before but was able to get it back by unplugging, restarting several times.No one else will touch a "Dell" and that co. is closed. After several "hundred" times I can only do an "F2" and it shows me there is a hard drive with several MB of stuff on there but won't load it, tried everything in the system - hate to lose all this "good" stuff. Is there any way I can transfer my XP from my desktop or run the laptop from my desktop somehow. I think if I could get a startup menu and choose a time to restore it to, like last month or something, I could use it and stop any further "updates" which really mess up things. Gosh, I loved my laptop as it is not "painful" to use and I do have such back pain at end of day, but then I am preaching to the choir about back pain and this job, aren't I? Hate to give up on it when I know there are some good programs on there. Sorry for the rant, I have let this "take over my life" trying to get it to work again. ***$#!** Thank you!
They can brag all they want.......
I just don't want to have to pay to rebuild and rebuild for them out of my taxes. If they can't afford to rebuild on the beach, then don't build there in the first place. Heck, my mother's insurance company that she's paid into for 50 years doesn't even want to replace her roof in total torn up from the hurricane.
She just wants an opportunity to brag about all the
If the hubs were to walk out on her and leave her with no alimony, no nuthin', I wonder how rah-rah she'd be about having to sell most of what she's got just to keep a roof over her head.
Money brag or is this normal now?
Why might someone might feel the need to tell you how much money they make when you did not even ask?! Insecurity, perhaps? This happened to me recently via e-mail and I have no idea how to respond, if at all. 
Many of us are "lucky" however, we don't brag at the expense of others. nm

I think this post was put here to brag and incite flames.
You know from history that every time the big money makers in this field boast about how much money they make in how little time that the thread goes downhill fast. First, somebody doesn't believe. Then someone is offended at the insinuation of lying. Then someone says other people could do it, too, if they were any good at MT. Then everyone is defending themselves and name calling. Why start it? Especially during the week before Christmas? Do you really need to rub people's noses in their lousy paychecks when some of us don't have enough money to even get gifts for the people in our lives or pay our bills because there was no work this pay period? People who need to tell others how much they make suffer from low self-esteem and misplaced priorities. There are more important things in life than money.
No, I am not trying to brag. I just wanted to know if others who live in my region are charging app
I did speak to another local MT this evening and she is charging .15 per line. That is all I wanted to know, what was the norm for this area and if I was overcharging.
If she has earned it they have to pay it is
what I said. There has to be something in writing or something inferred that there are benefits of paid time off/vacation and if so then she has to be paid. If there is no such understanding then you cannot expect payment.
I've been through this same situation.
I asked you to SHARE HOW - not brag. That's why folks like YOU aren't credible.
So sad that you should be so pompous. That's why I have to question HOW these #s are honestly achieved.
If you earned more than $600.00 for the year, then the
company is required to send you a 1099 form and it must be postmarked by 1/31.
For anyone that is an IC can you tell me why your wages earned are not the same as what your are cr
my accountant explained this but I cant remember the reason we dont get the full amount of credit and can you tell me what percentage we dont get credit for.
She doesn't even know if she earned the bonus because
she doesn't know what the bonus was based on is everything that I've read in this situation. The co said there would be a bonus, but she has no idea for what or how much. Sounds like the company put out a little snip of info, got the person to work her butt of to "qualify" when there possibly was not a bonus even to begin with.
He hasn't EARNED our respect. (nm)

Still waiting: $60 earned or received? nm

I am making in 2005 what I earned in 1995
Like you and so many others, I have watched my wages as both an IC and an employee go down, down, down. I worked for a company owned by an MT. She paid very good wages but sold the company to an Indian company, who got rid of all the Americans except for a few who would accept very low pay. It's funny...clients want 100% accuracy but they don't want to pay for it. They agree that they can't just randomly pluck people off the street to do MT, that they have to hire experienced or trained people. But they don't want to pay us for our experience or our training. I am doing my last MT job. I have my bachelor degree almost completed and I'm outta here. The lack of respect for MTs, from employers, other MTs, from offshore companies, from clients, from AAMT, is so disheartening.
Question on this, do you have to pay taxes on this as earned income?
I live in a state where we have income tax in addition to federal. Each year on the money we get back from state, we have to claim as income the next year so we are taxed, get paid, taxes on that, get paid, well you get the idea. I hate to get money and have $$$$ shown as earned income, I am way up there in paying taxes now and don’t need additional taxes on me.
profession not based on $ earned, but on specific criteria...sm
"I definitely have made tons of money in my own business. Sounds like low self-esteem on the posters below, unhappy, depressed."
Well, lots of people make "tons of money in their own business," i.e. hookers and drug dealers - doesn't mean it's a profession. A profession is done by professionals - think law, medicine, teaching. MT is just a job. That being said, I'm still far from unhappy and depressed! LOL but it's still just a job. The body of knowledge to do MT is so far from what is considered a body of knowledge (again think law) it's not even in the running. Even a checker at Jewel has a specific body of knowledge. It's the comparison that counts, not the existence. Many people are uninformed about what profession actually means. Do some research, you'll see what I mean.
Waste of time and hard-earned money
when you can only make may be 1 cpl more if you are a CMT. They should not charge you, they should just let you take the test and send you the certificate.
SITE ADMINISTRATOR: PLEASE ESTABLISH A BOARD FOR THE MQ PEOPLE, TRUST ME THEY'VE EARNED IT!!!!!

Oh, I found it really creepy when you said you found the flowers not so skillfully arranged on your
steps, and from your own flower bed. That's what I was worried about, having gone thru some psycho kids myself with my pups. Someone's been in your yard and in your garden and at your door without your knowledge. Its just creepy to me, and I'd still be very, very careful. Especially valid sounded the other MTs warning you about potential fake molestation charges. You just NEVER know nowadays, and these people have already turned on you big time once. Luckily (though I don't believe in luck), you had it on film to save yourself and your puppy. You might not be that lucky next time, and the whole thing just sounds very unstable to me right now. I know you feel sorry for the little girl, but probably the only time I have ever made BAD decisions regarding my life is when I felt sorry for someone, particularly kids. My son even has an evil kid in his life, but one who has a million reasons for sympathy, and I was saying how we should "be bigger" than the situation and invite this kid over to play. Thankfully, I regained my sanity long enough to remember - ever time I have done something like that on a personal basis for someone just because I feel sorry for them AFTER horrible behavior, it has always been a disaster... Be kind, but you don't have to risk your family again. Be kind from a distance. Its sorry she went thru this horrible experience, but YOU didn't cause it, and its not really your problem. But it could be your problem if this kid acts out in your life. Know what I mean?
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.
I think I found it, found multiple recipes with the same
exact ingredients so I figure this must be it.
MQ - I gotta tell ya
MQ is okay to work for..I have worked at many inhospital positions and transcription company positions and MQ is no worse than other companies I have worked for..
Gotta see this
Go to TheFreshAirShop.com. This is not a scam.
DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO!! RIGHT ON!
Just gotta say...lol.
I live outside of Madison, so been there done that, lol
Gotta be ham.
We have ham and lots of sides.
you gotta be
kidding! 90??
I just gotta say...
sometimes saying "ain't" just feels good... sort of like letting off a good swear word (fiddlesticks just doesn't do the trick)... when I'm feeling rebelious saying I AIN'T gonna do something feels way more satisfying than saying I'm not going to
gotta ask
Okay, this makes sense. So what about people who live near the poles who have extended hours of darkness? Will they rule Alaska at being high risk? I knew a woman who had lived there in the service and she said she did her gardening at 2 AM because it wasn't dark. They adjusted.
Personally, I work better at night and sleep better during the day. I am sharp at night and can produce way more. I can sleep deeply, restfully during the day but not at night. I seem to be the opposite. I've been this way since I was a kid. Maybe I came out of the womb too late in the day!!!!
gotta tell you this one
My neighbor retired from Magnavox forcefully when they left and went to Mexico. He said there is a law that if a part is missing, they don't have to pay the import tax, so they purposefully ship their items with a knob missing! It really ticked us off this happens. It wasn't this administration that started this whole thing either..I won't get into a politics discussion because everyone's beliefs are their own, but just doing a little research will show it.
I also have an aunt whose husband retired from Ford and she said they got a letter if the company does go under, she will lose her little pension check and all her medical benefits. I've seen these companies go under then suddenly appear again once they've stopped all former benefis, which is a crock IMO. Seems like now it's back to the old way, everybody has to stay in the same house and everybody work just to get by. I don't know how minimum wage people make it.
This has gotta be a put-on, right?
One of us is just yanking everybody else's chain with this 'I am most wonderful and experienced MT but I don't speak it the language' lingo? Come on, are we on Candid Computer?

War of the Worlds -- You gotta see it!!
I just saw it tonight....FABULOUS!! I admit I was skeptical because on Rotten Tomatoes (the website I go to see critics' notes first) it was falling and there's been ups and downs about it...AND because as much as I have always loved Tom Cruise he has really gone off the deep end in my opinion.
However, the movie was fabulous. I remember the old black and white movie too. Tom played his part incredibly; as did the little girl (forget her name); and Tim Robbins, too. Really was something.
Go see it!
Sorry.....gotta say my husband, especially when I see
him throwing ball with my son or reading a book to our little girl.......then 10 minutes later when he's leaving his dirty clothes in the bathroom, I could just kill him.....LOL.
You gotta hear this!
nm
gotta laugh
I was actually a triple-D which is an F before I had reduction surgery. So was my daughter who also had the surgery!
Gotta say I agree with above. I was in the same
position one time. I was in my late 20s, married about 10 years, and my husband showed VERY little interest in my. No "I love you," no kissing, very little sex. I started "talking" to an older man who told me he loved me, etc. Anyway, never went further than talking on the phone, but it's something I regret to this day, almost 20 years later. I feel like I was just as unfaithful as I had slept with this man.
Gotta love that! - nm

gotta agree with this one
he is GORGEOUS !
One more thing you gotta do...
When you've caught your breath, spend a couple more bucks and send a certified letter to the oncologist in question and let him/her know what has happened - someone hired the billing company in question and this part of your pain and suffering was avoidable and after exhausting the usual efforts to clear things, inexcusable on their part. Good luck with the battle on both fronts.
Sorry, gotta disagree with your
theory, but I can see your point. If you read the autopsy report, I can see how someone could stage this child being strangled and beaten to death and how the sexual assault could also be staged. But, there were body fluids found on her that did not match the DNA tests for everyone in the house (and contained no familial markers). So, if the DNA evidence was staged, it would make the situation premeditated which means that her parents would have needed motive to plan and carry out the brutal murder of one of their children in a very high profile way. I hope some day we know the truth too.
you gotta step outside the box a little...sm
