I was certainly not saying I was representing "everyone's" sentiments. I offered insite into WHY I believe not everyone will care to answer the original question.
I have no idea what your problem is, and I don't care. Grow up.

that's your opinion and you are entitled (sm)
to it. However, so are we, entitled to be happy with MQ. Sorry if that offends anyone! 
I'm as entitled to my opinion as you are.
You're the one upset, dear. Not me.
Yes, most of the whining on here is juvenile. It isn't constructive in any shape or form.
Yes, you are free to gripe. I'm free to respond as well.
I don't think I'm above anything. How ridiculous. I'm in the same boat as most everyone; I just have a different outlook.
As for your "typical office environment"...now THAT is absolutely a hoot! You are truly right on target there. Yes, it IS like a typical office environment. Full of disgruntled, dissatisfied workers who will not budge from their mired-up dark places but demand all in the company change for them. It is a rumor mill of the most destructive type. It is an emotional wringer.
The continual gripe sessions have made absolutely no progress for any of the problems discussed. The constant pity parties have made no positive impact either. They have only kept people upset and drawn others into a horrendous emotional spin.
Just keep on, Cowgirl. You have every right to get upset and stay that way.
I'm continuing on. You're not influencing my actions in the least. :)
As I said EVERYONE is entitled to their own opinion, nothing more to say - nm

yep, UR sure entitled to your opinion....nm
We all are entitled to our own opinion of course and our way of doing things - nm

-and the last time I checked, we were all entitled to our own opinion. nm

You are certainly entitled to your opinion, no one would accuse you of enabling.

k, that is your opinion, i stated mine. poor quality in my opinion shows bad work ethics if they do

So obviously anyone entitled to a refund....sm
then will be eligible for this? I also know people who don't pay a dime all year and then end up getting a refund at the end of the year because of the earned income credit, etc. So those people will definitely get this, correct?
Vent all you want; you are certainly entitled. sm
The MT industry/career sunk months ago, and it was an even bigger sink than the Titanic. However, in this case, this sink destroyed thousands of very dedicated and very hard-working MTs who were filled with nothing but passion and love regarding transcribing.
ICs are not entitled to vacation, insurance, etc. If you are
wanting benefits you need to be an employee.
Correct: If you are an IC, you are not entitled to unemployment
Have you talked directly with them about your concerns?
IMO, every client is entitled to have their reports the way they would like
them. For example, Roman numerals were accepted and correct for years before whoever decided they were in charge decided to change them. They is why each client should have dedicated MTs to their account. Those MTs will learn the account and transcribe it per client's wishes. I hate putting the actual patient name in a report, but certain facilities want it that way.
People are entitled to express their own opinions, right? . . . So . . .
if their view doesn't happen to be the same as yours, they are judging and only come here to cause problems. Good grief! Everyone's opinion has validity as just that - AN OPINION.
Even though I may not agree with someone, I still respect their right to have their own opinion/view. Just because I have I different stance doesn't mean I think they are stupid or wrong. People can disagree without a "war."
I meant to type--they feel entitled and are

Your post should be entitled "Unrealistic MT speaks."
I've been in this business long enough to know that number one, it is darn hard to get any clinic to sign a contract with an MT, and two, I'd put my head on the block and say that 99.99% of them would never sign a contract stating that if they break the contract, they would continue to pay the MT x-amount per month, and if their high-powered attorney allowed them to do such an air head thing, they'd find a legal loop hole via to get out of it soooooo quick.
The MT who originated her post was obvlously feeling very down, as you would be if it happened to you, so I must say it was very BIG of you to kick her while she was in that position, and I have to wonder, who's more professional - you or the clinic who dumped her with no notice after years of good service.
May the karma bug bite you big time in the butt, and it will, too.
Have a nice day - Julie
According to the latest Plexus journal entitled "Planning Your exit" ....
even editing may soon be a thing of the past. I don't have the journal, but I have heard about at least one article making the point that, even though the unedited reports produced by physicians using VR are atrocious, the quality (or lack thereof) is beginning to be acceptable anyway with seemingly no concern about the how the poor quality of these reports might impact patient safety or quality of health care. The article makes the observation that this trend may be the harbinger of the death of our profession, hence the title, "Planning Your Exit." Anyone have the journal and, if so, can you share more of what it has to say?
Why don't you grow up
and while you are at it, go take a shower and do your hair for once in your life and put make up on. It will do you good to look presentable for once.
Enough already...come on, grow up!
Why do you even waste space slinging insults?
Grow up
How disgusting. Because this lady hit the nail on the head, you have to reply with a personal attack. Go look in the mirror.
Can we say GROW UP???

Grow up...nm

Grow up already
If you can't "bring yourself" to type a sequence of letters that form a word -no matter how offensive - you are in the wrong field.
and yes, there are legal implications. Verbatim meanst verbatim.
just grow with it
i know its hard. but try to set the fear aside. You are still there, so they must plan to keep you (3 months is the usual probation period). Just do the best you can. Conquer this obstacle and then you can decide if it is what you want to keep doing or not. I still regret quitting something i was pursuing decades ago, that i quit out of fear. If you quit, make it for the right reasons, not because you were afraid of not making it, or afraid of your boss. Believe me, if I can do this, so can you (I flunked my first transcription course). I'm an MT now for 30+ years.
Why Don't You Grow Up?
Your posts are getting tedious, not to mention very boring.
i grow strawberries,
in the garden; what i do with them may not work for store-bought ones -- don't know. But when i bring them in, i rinse them and let dry in a collander. I hull them and if there are any too soft or bad spots, carve them out, then put them in a bowel, cover with seran wrap and leave in frig. I don't think i've ever had them go moldy. If you freeze them, they freeze better if they are sliced, but they freeze whole pretty well too.
grow up ladies
Don't you get tired of the cat fighting? It isn't any wonder you don't produce any lines.
Grow up? How about you wise up?
So, you mean to tell me that having 1 or 2 glasses of wine or beers is enough to call someone drunk? Come on and WISE UP!
Again, I didn't ask WHO GETS DRUNK AND TRANSCRIBES, I asked who has a few drinks while transcribing.
Being in the vicinity of MY OWN HOME having a drink or TWO and transcribing is no big deal to me. Some of you people are SO UPTIGHT and I think NEED TO DRINK!
HICCUP, pardon me!
grow up........*shrugs*............nm

It has to grow back a little to wax or to use any other
only way to really not have it grow back anymore than stubble would be to shave and I wouldn't recommend shaving. The other option would be to use cream bleach. Also, for waxing, it just has to be long enough for the hair to grip the wax ~ it doesn't have to be full grown or anything. =)
Y'all need to grow up
I have 35+ years in this field -- started out on the job with a typewriter and "tanks of dictation" I for one read posts and it's " I only want to work Monday through Friday, I can't work because of kids, whine, complain, etc, I need benefits so on and so forth -- I have been working for 30+ years -- I KNOW how to search the internet, how to spell and I will spend time researching etc -- maybe for those of you, PRIVATE insurance is an option -- I know in my own personal experience last year when I broke my leg and was in a cast for 2 months, my hospital bill INCLUDING follow up was $26.
So, you didn't get a "Christmas/holiday bonus", so you didn't get an MT week gift -- right now, be GLAD you have a J-O-B and quiit whining and complaining and most of all GROW UP!!!
btw -- s/o makes $22 an hour -- he "got a raise" but come down to the nitty gritty, he LOST HIS RAISE and is making $3.00 LESS -- no benefits either
In a big hurry to grow up at 20, BIG MISTAKE
No one at 20 has the life experience to know herself, let alone know what to want and expect in another person.
Second time, and successful time, age 39. Better to choose than to "settle" for whatever's in front of you at the time.
I just sit on my fat butt and watch it grow. nm

So we should assume you grow all of your own food? sm
Do you grow all of your own food, raise your own cattle and chickens, and raise your own sheep, which you then shave yourself and use the wool to make your own clothing? Because even if you're walking to the store, you're still supporting gas-driven machinery. How do you think all of those supplies get to the store? On the back of someone's bicycle?
Oh grow up - such a sore loser!

Oh, grow up. There is no teacher here to be a "pet" for. (sm)
Unless you're paying me per line to obsess about my grammar and spelling on this message board, I am not going to stress my grammar and spelling. It's just like when I'm talking with friends. I don't say "I cannot" and "he will", I use contractions. However, I would not use contractions in a report. Casual conversation, like here, is different than professional communication, like in an email to a client, or professional work.
In short, get over yourself.
I've wondered where B. Grow is (sm)
I bought my copy of Smartype from her when I worked at Winsolutions with her. I used to visit her website every one in awhile, too, for Smartype tips. I noticed that the website is down now, so I'm not sure how to get ahold of her anymore. Good advice, though. I'm sure she'd have some ideas.
Pity my employers? Furthermore, grow up!

No one said you have to train them. You just have to grow up and be above the bullstuff.
This is the difference between a good QA/mentor/Editor and a "QA person" -- I'll take my time and help someone if they need it, and I *am* a "good QA".
Not going to make them grow up any faster sm
Sorry, but I have a duty to protect my child until they are an adult. When they are older, if they request that I leave the room during the exam, that is one thing, but no doctor is going to tell me I have to leave the room. My kids know about sex and that no one is to touch them except a doctor and only if necessary during an exam. But they are also still children, and while I don't baby them, I am in no hurry for them to lose their innocence. I absolutely love that my 11-y/o DD still loves her stuffed animals and plays Littlest Pet Shop games on her Nintendo DS. Kids these days are growing up too fast, and while I may be looked at as giving her a sheltered life, I would much rather have that than her trying to act like she is 16 already.
LOL! Know just how you feel. They are near impossible to grow in SoFla.

So did a lot of people, but they didn't grow up to be skanks.
She's gross.
Oh, for Heaven's sake - if you don't like it just don't reply. Grow up.

Barbara Grow expander method
I am in search of Barbara Grow's or Mary Morken's word Expander method and dictionaries. I googled these and am not finding any place that has them free or for sale. Do any of you know where to find them?
Did your mom grow up in the depression? Woman I worked with did the same thing.
party at her home. Low and behold she had a whole room full of toilet tissue she has spirited away from the office over the 30 years!!!! She had grown up in the depression and I guess it was a big deal to have toilet tissue. She sure hoarded it.
Aloe is amazing. I should grow it as a window plant, it's
Totally understanding. Our kids grow up and we have no choices.
My dear friend just called me yesterday crying because her daughter is living with her partner and the partner is pregnant. The daughter is sooo happy, the mother cried. So what you're describing is happening more than where you are and it is saddening. What can she do, nothing. Our kids whether we like it or not grow up and jump out to make their own choices. Some of these choices are "you can't tell me what to do anymore!" And, we have no choice but to live with it. So the choices then become to be miserable OR focus on your own life and work on making yourself happy in spite of what your kids put you through. You have a life, don't let your kid drown it out because of his poor choices. You may think who am I to say such a thing, I'm the mom whose son made poor choices and went to jail, I'm the mom whose daughter chose to abort my first grandbaby, I'm the mom whose son left his wife and kids after almost 10 years of marriage. I really do know how you feel. Find some joy for yourself in your life, you won't find it when you're looking at his.
Anyone ever plant hybrid poplar trees? They are those fast grow ones
that are supposed to grow 8 feet a year. Some claim they send up too many "sucker" shoots from the root areas, some love em. I need a wind break on the N. and W. sides of my lot, and was thinking of these. Anybody ever plant these?
Could this entire conversation BE any more high school? Grow up, you guys, honestly.
I'm embarassed to even work with you all. Sound like a bunch of grade school delinquents. Grow u
So disrespectful, and just plain embarassing. You get whatever you desire, and based on your "class" on the boards, you all are getting it. I thank God literally that I don't have to share office space with you "women". A priceless blessing.
you mentioned everything you could
think of except the pay. How IS the pay???
