"most of the stuff I worried about never happened." on a headstone. nm

No, I don't worry about stuff like that, as I said "mind games" - sm
They pull "your parents don't want you to see us" crap, trying to play the kids off of us and guilt us into caving in, and they put the kids down saying they can't do something because they are too tall, too short, too thin, etc. A person can do just about anything they put their mind to if they have determination. My one daughter, who used to love ballet, no longer wants to do it because grandpa told her she was too tall to be a ballerina (she is in 95th percentile for her age in height and weight, very tall and thin for a 7-y/o), which is a load of crap. So its little things like this that affect how they feel about themselves which I will not tolerate. They are the master of putdowns, I can see correcting a child if they are doing something incorrectly/wrong, but its how you do it...you don't tell the kid they are stupid or an idiot because they made a mistake or have a dream. My husband grew up with this pounded into him and does not want the same thing inflicted on his kids, hence the moderation in exposure to his parents...they know this but still they do it and still they nag to have the kids. He's has, in the past, told them pointblank that they will never get the kids, but its like talking to a wall. So I am not a neurotic worrying about too much playtime or staying up an hour late, etc. Just don't want any more emotional harm done.
I don't mind self checkout or bagging my groceries. It does keep costs down.
I just want to buy my stuff at the cheapest price available. I don't want to way ethics and morals of any store because if I need to do that I probably wouldn't buy anything from anybody.
Agree! What about your hubs, kids, sex life, groceries? Something's gotta give if you're doing

Don't worry about it. In 5-6 years you'll have plenty to worry about!
A 10-year-old is never in a situation where anything can "happen," and they don't understand anything "happening" anyway. At this age they're only capable of "having a boyfriend" because that's what they see on TV - that's what the world "expects of us", to pair up and "like each other."
Her friends aren't talking about adult "things" to do in a "relationship" yet, and she doesn't even have those feelings, hormones, or needs yet so don't worry about it.
At 10, having a "boyfriend" is the equivalent to playing "dress up" or "make believe" and is just "sitting together in the cafeteria" at best.
Plus they move on to a new "boyfriend" in a week, a few weeks tops.
Relax, Mom. The part to worry about is yet to come and I wouldn't want to deal with that again for anything!
Best of luck and enjoy these years while you can.
lets do it

PLEASE, lets drop this....
I got the help I needed for today. Let's just drop it.

a key fob lets you into some place
I live in a huge complex and each building has their own electronic box (boxes) on every door that the owners/residents use a key-fob for to enter...the gym, any external door, business center, conference room, etc.
Is that what you're speaking of? Something that is usually plastic and hangs on a keychain to allow entrance somewhere......
How to get job that lets you earn only up to

IF MQ LETS YOU GO, ARE YOU GOING TO REFUSE TO TAKE $$ FROM THEM?
Be honest.
DECREASE IN PAY!! LETS REBEL
they want to decrease our ME pay by 20%. we need to all be asked to go back to MTs and earn what we are worth
Lets ask Frank about spaces
Well, maybe all us MQ workers should send a friendly letter to Frank (isnt he still the CEO?) and ask if we get paid for spaces. I have been told in the past I do, however, I have noted a decrease in lines when switching to DQS and dont know where those lines went. I have to work one to two hours more a day to make the same line count I made on Cottage, in the **good old days**..OMG, not paying for spaces? Well, then maybe we should not space between words or sentences, cause it takes our thumb to hit the key board and know when to space, Im working here..It working to put in spaces..I should be paid!!..Or, okay, dont pay me for spaces, then pay me more for my lines and my intelligence and my knowledge of medical..
There you go, lets have a thread about old cars!!!
yeah.
GO PANTHERS !!! Made it once, lets do it again. nm
What version are you using? Mine lets me do that. sm
I checked to see if there was a setting you need to adjust, but could not find one. I use an older version 8.70b, and it lets me do that, but I know the older versions than what I have did not allow that.
Try a noise machine - we have one that lets you....sm
choose between the sounds of a waterfall, crickets chirping, and other sounds that I got my daughter for $10 at Target. Good luck!
what job lets you decide how much money

Lets cut all cables to India! sm
You know, some other countries don't permit their citizens to access US websites because of salacious content.
I say, we should not be allowed access via the internet to ANY third world backwater where they are sending American jobs!!!!
We should also block content to said polluted backwaters if it involves employment in this country.
Keep America great, preserve our borders real and virtual. Keep American jobs for Americans and LEGAL immigrants.
umm yeah and please learn to speak English.
lets us know whether or not we need to open the post. NM

Lets bottom line this, say she leaves and goes to another company
What do you think would be her chances of them going to VR? Do you think it will go poof and disappear? Do you think refusing to take lower wages makes the companies take notice and reverse to go back to the golden days when we had really good salaries? Be willing to bet that next paycheck most would go along with their companies going to VR rather than changing, going to a new job only to find out the same thing happens there.
okay, now I'm a little worried....
my husband is on a boat...sort of a boat....which is docked on LA coast. He wasn't worried yesterday as he was talking to me on a pay phone, but he was also getting drenched by torrential rain.
all I can do is pray, I guess
Sorry I had you worried.
I won't let it happen again.
worried
I`m so sorry to hear you all are losing your accounts. It`s really scary, I have been looking for some type of employment since December and still nothing. I was working as a receptionist at a Independent doctor`s office and and because of lack of money and to try to safe money he joined in with another doctor in his office, which had a full staff so most of us lost are jobs. Anyway with all this happening I decided to go to MT school which starts the end of this month, but after reading all the posting`s on here of lost jobs, YIKES! I`m wondering if this is the way to go. In other words I am now scared, worried, and very concerned and just don`t know what to do.
What is going on in the health care field? 
I'm not worried . . .
Those who would bash someone for trying to question a system that is obviously not working very well are people which I refer to as sheep . . . the ones who don't want to buck the system because they're afraid of losing their way. We would still be living in caves if it weren't for those people who had the guts to question and demand accountability.
I was worried about that, too, but...
It looks like you have the option of keeping a minimum-payment land line account for emergencies. You use the same phone for ooma and land calls. You can keep your own phone number if you keep your land line. It sounds pretty amazing.
I got a little pay-as-you-go cell phone awhile back, so I suppose I would just use that to call 911 if I gave up my land line.
I'm not worried.
I'm not worried about any American MT taking my job. I'm very good at what I do. I like my employer and really don't want to be the one to subject them to some of the nasty folks on this board.
Worried?
Yes, EMR seems like the most worrisome of the threats to our jobs. But I had a client who doesn't use us anymore but does use EMR and they have not been able to get rid of their MTs because all EMR can't be done with a punch screen. There are so many variables that some of it needs to be dictated. Now if Kaiser is not dictating and just doing EMR then their records are suffering but Kaiser is an entity unto itself and it makes up its own rules and patient care is in the toilet at Kaiser.
I think I smell either VR on the easy stuff, or offshoring of the easy stuff.

Well, lets hope they keep the regulars on their own accounts because the hospitals know who types
regularly in those accounts and how the work is and if there is no complaining from the doctors and all of a sudden when you start throwing a whole bunch of new backups in there and the docs start complaining the hospitals can look in those systems and see who is working and then they call and complain to the MQ office and some have threatened to leave if the situation doesnt get straightened out which means you go back to just the regulars that really know the hospital.
Lets try this again. With all the big nationals running us out or work and lowering our wages what
do you suggest.
Whew! You had me worried there
I have been worried about my job as well and tired of the pay..
I have been concerned with the MT field as well. I originally got started in this profession to be able to be at home and work when I have children. So far no kids have come along but I have found something else to do in addition to transcribing at home. Visit www.thefreshairshop.com if you are interested. :-)
I figured you must be worried....sm
I know you're worried and I don't even know you. However, knowing insurance, if you go before the insurance kicks in, they (the insurance after it kicks in) will see this as a preexisting condition and may not cover future treatment. IF you can wait 12 days (because even if it was serious, and it may not be serious, 12 days won't make any difference, outside of possibly allaying your fears). 12 days will gallop by!!! I feel bad for you because you're anxious and I'm the same way about these things. Hope you do well !!!!! 
Thank you for posting! I was so worried about
you! I am very proud of you, too! It is unbelievable and sickening, literally, how bad withdrawal is from simple pain meds. It WILL get better, I promise! And, again, we are not addicts - the body simply gets dependent on pain meds, as well as some blood pressure pills, antiseizure meds, and more. The stigma of being on pain meds can be so devastating as well, but you have nothing to be ashamed about! Please do keep us posted!
You had me worried there for a minute! :)
I make a point to take my lunch "breakette" out on the deck. or I'll go stark raving mad! 
I too am worried about the future of MT BUT......
Am I the only one here who thinks this article has nothing to do with us? We ARE NOT simply word processors or data-entry keyers. This says nothing about medical transcriptionists. Just my opinion.
Yep, but they said that about XP, too, so I am not too worried anymore.

I'm not worried, but I guess you SM
don't see that not doing everything you can before going to a word board is really lazy, plus it abuses the poor people who do go there to help out.
I am just not worried about VR, EMR, the sky falling and on and on
If the entire medical field goes kerplunk, all you can do is pick yourself off, get another job really fast and heave ho. What else? I have had 2 jobs pulled out from underneath me and I am still here. You can make it also. No use in worrying. I lost a very profitable job to outsourcing years ago and now don’t worry about the fate of Mting.
