Chris and Katharine's music. Though they are all in good positions to be picked up by a record producer. Look at Josh Gracin. He was 4th.

Elliot and Taylor, oh and what about Chris?
They are all great! It is for sure a man this year!
They do need to learn some dance moves though!
lol
I do like Elliot...but I Love Taylor..

Agree Taylor!
I think Taylor will win it all. And I agree with what the poster said about Katharine. There is just something about her. When the judges say something bad she always has this look like, well that's what you think, but you're crazy.
According to Diaidol.com, Elliott is at the bottom, but it's very close. They're been right three weeks in a row.
I agree, my vote is definitely for TAYLOR!

I like Paris and Elliot
Elliot was great last night with the Mood for Love song.
Elliot all the way tonight!
I read where Elliot will be with someone sm
else for about 6 weeks or so while she is on maternity leave.
Speaking of Elliot.....
Have you heard he was at the Beverly Hills Hilton hotel taking pictures and Nicki Hilton had security stop him! Those Hilton girls are just pure white trash who happen to have money - I don't know who they think they are!
what is wrong with Elliot's mother? nm

Bored!!!!
Help! I need a few words of encouragement. I feel as if I've been working 4 hours and it's only been 1-3/4!!! What can I do to psych myself out to get in my time?
I'm too hot to be bored!

Really bored...
Broasted chicken and John Grisham. He's intelligent and a great storyteller, so I would be well fed and never bored on an island - perfect existence.
anybody BORED??
I am having a really tough time lately with being totally bored with what I am doing. Too many ESL doctors that put me to sleep or frustrate me beyond belief. Too much time with "no work available" and too much stuff in some reports that my line count takes a big hit b/c I'm spending tons of time looking things up... Anybody else feeling bored, burnt out, or whatever this is?? How did you snap out of it? I need to start making serious money at this, but can't seem to get there no matter what I do and so much of it is completely out of my control.
anybody BORED?
Do you have any of the computer programs made for Medical Transcription, such as medical dictionary, medical spellchecker, smarttype, etc. Since I have gotten the above and a few others,I spend less time looking up information and more time typing and some things as easy as a search engine (google.com) may be helpful. Good luck.
Anyone get bored?
Lately it is getting harder and harder for me to stay awake while transcribing - have done this for 20+ years and now have to take caffeine pills (even after getting 7-8 hours sleep) Do the same account every day, same work type (which I know I should consider as lucky), same long reports every day, very monotonous, nothing challenging and having a really hard time. If I complain the office staff will put be on discharges which will be even more boring. Used to get a mixture of short and long reports, now very seldom get anything short and am so bored - get up every hour and walk around 10 minutes or so - any ideas on pepping myself up?
Bored, bored, bored...
I hear you on the boredom front!
I think we are all victims of spring. New season, we want changes, we get restless, there's more daylight, and who wants to sit in front of a monitor 8 hrs/day typing the same repetative droning voices hours upon hours?
The only thing that seems to be a temporary fix for me is to blow off the work for 30 minutes and get outside for a walk. Take the phone off the hook and just go. You can't be productive when you get in a slump and sometimes doing something physical is the answer. Walk fast, swing your arms, head up, deep breaths and think about what you're going to plant in the garden, or what color you want to paint a room in your house, or maybe a new hair style.
I think this time of year we thrive on change, yet this job is not conducive to that so we have to create change elsewhere.
Wow. Now it has come down to me spewing this mystic inner-self stuff. See what being cooped up does to a person?
re: being bored
Hi there!
I have only been typing for about a year and a half so far but I just wanted to say that I do disability psych evals and they are always different to listen to. So if you want something different to do, try finding a company that does psych evals! I also have to walk for about 20 minutes a day just to get my blood pumping to my brain and hands which get sore too!
God bless!

Bored, bored, bored, bored, bored, bored....

I'm bored too
Just interviewed for a QA position because favorite part of my job now is looking up unfamiliar words. But don't get paid for that. QA would be hourly salary and at least I would be challenged again.
Bored
So, I've decided that medical transcription is something I just can no longer do. I've been doing it for 16 years but I'm so bored, it's pretty near driving me crazy. Can't concentrate... vacuuming the house is more interesting that transcribing at this point. I took a week off not too long ago. That week went by far too quickly. Then I took 3 days off this weekend. So, here I am fresh from a good break, and am sitting here wanting to do anything other than transcribe.
I have no idea what other type of work I could do. All I know is transcribing feels pretty similar to getting smacked by a baseball bat! Painful all the same, minus the bruises!
When I first started it did, but now I am bored. nm

off today and bored...
That's where I stay when I go. You will never be bored
and then go to the Ocean's Club. They have some condos you can rent that are part of Atlantis too that are quite nice and they are within walking distance and you get to use all the amenities. That is where I would say to go.
That is bored and you are the trolls--nm

I have been an MT for over 10 years now and I am so bored.
I can't stand being on the phone with anybody because I get so tired of hearing people talk all the time. I get irritated easily and my family is starting to notice it. My friends are upset with me because I don't call them as often as I should. The housework is definitely slacking. I even had to get a babysitter to watch my 9-month-old baby for me because it was too hard working late nights and then staying up all day, getting only minimal naps in before my 7-year-old came home from school. What is the point of working from home for very little and not being able to take care of my own family? I am interested in doing some billing. Do you think you can email me some information on how to go about this? I did some billing before and I enjoyed it, although it was working in a clinic. I am thinking about taking the tests but it's been so long since I've done anything else. 
So bored I could scream
I thought working from home would give me more "flexibility" to be with my family; little did I know that I actually have less time with my family now than I would at a job in town.
To take time off, it must be scheduled months in advance. An emergency has to be cleared in advance. I'm so bored that I'm eating to keep myself focused and awake at night. I would cut back, but I don't earn enough to go part time. It is harder and harder to force myself to go to work, and harder and harder to stay focused, particularly when I have a bad dictator which is more often than not.
I think I'm so burned out I'm crispy around the edges.
BORED TO DEATH
Does anyone else get sick and tired of doing the same work, same doctors, same everything day in and day out? I am bored to death with this job! I like the job just not the same stuff. I think I need a change!!!!
BORED? THE ANSWER
Dear FastMT,
I really like you and I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND AND EMPATHIZE WITH YOUR BOREDOM!! I have too many years (23) of medical transcription under my belt. I had 96 college credits in the academic curriculum, which is very interesting. I am really an academic person. I received an A average in high school in an academic curriculum and won a college scholarship based on my first 1-1/2 years of college (academic curriculum).
I sense that you, like me, have a higher level of intelligence and require much more engrossing and stimulating work than what medical transcription provides you. After the first several years, the whole challenge wears off, and then of course there is the distrust of exactly what these doctors are doing to their patients in the form of harm.
I would like to discuss this with you, because I sense I have the answer for you in the form of a career change. Would you please email me at my email address, which is: dove003@comcast.net? Please do email me, since I really think could have the answer for you!!
THIS IS NOT SOME GIMMICK AND I DO NOT REPRESENT SOME COMPANY. I only want to help you out. Please email me. Thanks.');>![](https://forum.mtstars.com/smileys/smirlove2.gif")

I got bored w/ it too, that's why I'm working my way up
Once you get in the door you can apply for different positions with enough experience. When working for a national, this field isn't limited to JUST transcription!
The VR is what bored me to death..sm
I would actually get to the point where I could feel my head nodding...80% of what I got was VR....I was beginning to feel retarded. The only straight transcription that was sent to me were the worst dictators, cause the company knew I would do it, take my time, research, relisten, etc. I've always felt more alive transcribing than editing.

Was bored, now happy in-house
I was bored and sleepy working at home doing acute care. I always found short reports a better rhythm for me. Nothing makes me sleepier than seeing an 18-minute report come up (usually STAT). Ugh. My production went so low I was let go, which was a blessing. I was out of work for 4 months and prepared to go back to school for something more active like nursing, but found a temporary position doing radiology for an in-house outpatient facility. I liked it so much I came on as an employee. I like the short reports, the contact with radiologists and techs, and having so much control over the referrer's database and quality. The radiologists remark they have never seen such good quality as mine. It is total satisfaction for me.
My son, who is 14, most definitely YES! He is constantly whining to me about being bored, but...
my daughter is starting Kindergarten this year and she is my baby and my last and I am going to be a blubbering fool probably the entire first week of school!
So? Are you just bored that you can comment so cruelly?
NM
Does anyone eat out a lot. I don't like to cook but am bored with the same old fast food.
Got any places not too expensive where I can get food to go. To go is the key. Bored with McDonalds, Wendys, Burger King, delivery pizza. (Boston Market?)
Thanks.
I'm bored and dateless on a Saturday night...
Is it my basic personality?
My SIL's mom also wanted to work from home cause she was *bored*. nm

anybody bored with this summer? favorite month/season?
too hot to do anything. give me late september or early october please.
Okay I'm Really Bored. If you could only have one food and one person on desert island, what and
who would it be? No fair family members. We want a famous person and one food item to picnic forever on this island.
Regarding Taylor... Is it just me or....
has he gone from a rather sloppy looking spazz to looking pretty sexy? Okay, maybe it's because he seems a little older than the rest because of the gray hair (he's 16 years my junion), but he's kinda HOT these days! Last night when he was danced I was thinking........ Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Can't wait to see him do Elvis next week. 
Go Taylor! nm
nm
Taylor-Taylor-Taylor
I hope it's Taylor...I'm anxious to see if anything goes on tonight about last week's shocker when Chris got kicked off...lots of stuff on the 'Net about voting being wrong, etc...have to wait and see.
 GO TAYLOR!!!
NO, YA NUT - Taylor isn't on anything....nm
Taylor will win. sm
Last week, all of Birmingham greated Taylor back home, and Kat only filled half a gym. Taylor has never been in the bottom 3 and Kat has. They are both going to be very rich, but Taylor will win.
Taylor
I loved Taylor tonight. I really liked the last song he sang. I just got done having an argument with my husband who thinks that Katharine will win and should win and that if Taylor wins he won't sell any records. He just doesn't get it. My daughter and I have been trying to vote for Taylor since the show ended, but can't get through.
taylor fan
Yes, Taylor, you make me PROUD! He was so cute tonight!
Spheris can't AFFORD MQ. I doubt it is TRUE and someone is bored and trying to stir
Good job.
Some days I feel so mentally bored I wonder if I am losing my mind. nm
