"I wonder what you're work looks like"............It is your work, not you're as that is short for you are. If you use the contraction, that means you are saying "I wonder what you are work looks like.

You Could Say "Me" is the Pot Calling the Kettle Black.
Gee, now am I racist or do I just have a hatred for cooking ware? 
Look at the pot calling the kettle black - I am not fighting wth you. I more mature than that. sm
Besides everyone has their own opinions. Glad I got to see yours.
Imagine, the class you have. This is like the pot calling the kettle black
Your post saying: you have no breeding whatsoever. You sound like a gross, subliterate redneck to me. So kindly remove the beam from your own eye before you look for the speck in someone else's. :D :D
and you're gorgeous? pot/kettle/black...............NM

So that makes it okay to "rip me apart"? Pot...kettle...black...

Obviously you're black, right? LOL
So the criers should shutup too, then, right? Just let people get away with whatever they want and don't call them out for fear or stifling their "right" to freedom of speech when they spew hate. Sure, and I was born yesterday and race is not an issue in America. Wake up, it's alive and well, as we can see on this board. How sad this rears it's ugly head here. Surprised, nope.
Oh, okay. So if we're really calling things for what they are....
you must be in luck today! I don't use the language it takes to call you what you are! We CAN beat around the bush though -- thy Queen of the Canine Females. ROFL
If you're calling me an idiot, you must be one of the ones I'm talking about.

If you're on dial-up, don't forget a calling card

I agree with you about calling 911. sm
Have it checked out.
Here's what fortunately happened to my stubborn sister.
She just happened to luck out because she was in a room full of people at a big birthday bash for a friend. She didn't feel good, a bit of a nagging headache, but thought it was no big deal until her head started to ache so bad that she dropped into a chair. She was about 5 blocks from the hospital at the time and someone called rescue. She had a brain aneurysm rupture, but she made it. After a month in the hospital she is "normal" with only a slight problem with short term memory.
The "moral" of this story is that if my stubborn sister had been home by herself, thinking, "maybe something is wrong" she would have taken an aspirin and went to lie down.
Don't mess with chest pain. Better to find out that you've pulled a muscle or something.
AAMT ADHI orwhatever they're calling themselves this year...
AAMT ADHI (or whatever they're calling themselves this year) is a conglomerate out to make money ~ like any other business. They lost sight of the basis for their existence long ago. I was a paid member (as were many MTs) until I realized what a waste of my hard-earned money it was. Ultimately, instead of helping the MT they just want to make a sale.
Black widows are shiny black, females have red spot
There aren't many males around. After the mate, the females eat them lol.
We have black widows galore here in Calif. I actually keep frogs in my yard (provide ponds for them) and they have made a big impact on the insect population.
Remember to always wear shoes (something I try to do).
Well that is real mature, calling me a rimrod. Why the name calling?
I am not telling everyone to leave this site. I gave info about MTSTars.net to let us, who have been on this site MTStars.com for many years to make up their own minds. YESTERDAY, I never got a straight answer about the owner of this board and now I know, but I was in the middle of asking questions earlier and my posts kept getting deleted. I was not calling anyone names, like YOU have and I am not insuling anyone like YOU have. NOT offshoring? Well he is from Pakistan am I right? I still do not know the truth. Can you supply me with more information about Dr. Ahmed?
Well said! Pot and Kettle
nm
Pot, meet kettle. Your posts are all over the board. sm
...just because they are responding, and probably not even as vocal as you've been on here. That just reduces any point you were trying to make to shreds, sounding juvenile and defensive instead of engaging in reasonable debate -- but worst of all, acting like you are superior and somehow smarter than all the rest of us when most of us have known all about this big "news flash" of yours for years now. You say you wouldn't hate others for what they believe in, but when someone spoke up saying they like ASR, you insulted her by saying she must not have been a fast typist then. ASR isn't going away, no matter how many people quit MQ citing that as a reason. Many times, it's not even the MTSOs who sell doctors on ASR - there are companies out there courting the doctors, pumping them up with sales talk about how great it is and how much time/money they'll save. THOSE are the ones the rest of us are aiming at, and wisely so. Think about it, do you think the MTSOs like it when clients go to ASR and lower the rate they are paying the MTSO?? If the MTSO also sells the equipment, maybe. Otherwise, doubtful. It's new technology and MTs must adapt for now, as chances are good it will flame and then fizzle out. MANY, many doctors have already tried it years back, hated it, and returned to traditional dictation. As you've been told, this is NOT a new development so it's not that people don't care; they just aren't as urgently impressed by the rants since it's old news. It lurked on the horizon for a long time before it ever actually hit the shelves and a lot of us researched it prior to it actually being utilized.
Yes, there are plenty of issues that are pulling MTs everywhere down. Offshoring is one of them. Has been for years. ASR/VR is one of them. Has been for YEARS. Maybe this is news to you, but again, most of us have known about these things and been proactive about/against them for YEARS by not accepting lower rates and not offshoring or working for companies that do.
I will reiterate, though, that one of the biggest issues dragging MTs through the mud is something that is perfectly fixable - the BEHAVIOR of some MTs. Unprofessional, juvenile behavior is not considered a desirable quality in any employee. Lack of work ethic and false sense of entitlement are two more traits that are not desirable in an employee. Someone who has only been in the business for a few years but thinks they know more than MTs who worked on manual typewriters is yet another undesirable. MTSOs read this board all the time and take note of these things, and when certain names come up on resumes, they go immediately to the circular file, if you know the flavor of THAT Kool-Aid.
kettle corn is great, easy to make, and you can spice it up...
and there are pretzels, potato chips, veggie chips. you can quickly roast any kind of nut and spice or sweeten them up. I use sucranat for sugar, or turbanado, anything not bleached.
yummy fruit, fresh or frozen.
lots of things you can do...
I agree......some think they're not obligated
xx
I agree; it was a decent mini-course. Maybe they're trying to right some old wrongs.

I agree, fishy. If you're an IC you'll have to take out approx.
30% on top of the 25% they're going to keep, but will you have to claim earnings of it all, even their 25%. Hmmmm, I think I'd be asking a LOT of questions because why aren't they just saying you'll make 9.75 cents instead of 13 cents that you'll really NOT be making.
I agree! They're looking for you to upload to a network drive,
which is totally not your responsibility to provide for them. If they don't want to install a network and dedicated drive, they can turn on their file sharing but allow ONE computer to be the master computer. All other computers would have access to the shared folder on the "main" computer. However, they would HAVE to be sure they uploaded the files again to the main drive after making changes.
As for the search feature, they've already got that built into Windows. Start Menu, Search for Documents, Advanced Search options, "A word or phrase contained in the document," type the patient's name into the box, and specify which drive to search on. Hit OK and voila!
DixieDew, I don't always agree with your political views, but you're right on the money in thi
You bet I agree! Red splotches and swollen lips? It's sad we're more concerned... (sm)
About your husband than you are! If you want someone to agree with you no matter what you say, ask your momma! If you want opinions and ask for 'em, don't whine when you get 'em!

I totally agree and keep in mind the quality of the dictation where you're at currently. SM
You're already used to the dictators where you're at now. I can almost guarantee that the quality of the dictation will decrease and the number of ESL will increase whatever national you choose to go to compared to where you're at now. Even if you do luck out and a get a good account at a national, there is still the transitional phase where you getting to know the dictators, account specifics, etc. and your production will decrease considerably than what you are used to.
I'd stay where you're at, choose a national that you like, one that gets more positive feedback than negative, and try it on for size.
Good Luck!
I agree with this; hence, my query about how folks who say that they're working for SERVICES ...
are making this kind of money.
Totally agree. They're no longer paying for this so-called skill
and that's part of the reason the quality is down.
Agree! What about your hubs, kids, sex life, groceries? Something's gotta give if you're doing

Black lab here too,
She looks black to me.

She LOOKS black...
But so does OJ Simpson, Michael Jackson (well, not since he bleached his skin)...
Where is Black, MO?
I'm a Missourian too!
black widows
LOL, a creature of the underworld? I sure hope you are kidding. A black widow, as all spiders, are very much needed. They eat other bugs. Most spiders are harmless and black widows do not stray from their web very far. You can put a black widow in your hand and it will not bite you unless you pushed its head down on your hand.
Black at wedding
Black is stylish and I love it. I would suggest not wearing black stockings, etc. Do you have any bright colors you could add such as a cloth rose (very stylish)or some bright jewelry to offset the black. Try a thrift store for a bright bag or shoes. I just did that and found a pretty pink bag with black trim for a couple of dollars. That should offset the black. Just try not to go "totally black" but if you have to, so be it. Just wear a "smile" and have a great time! Life is temporary, enjoy it.
Black Hole
Hi - If you would care to email me personally I would be happy to speak with you. We strive to follow through on everything, and we know the importance of experienced MTs so we do try to make them happy with the account/accounts they are working on. Please feel free to email me.
Thanks.

dressing in black
Don't worry about it. My sister wore black for 15 years when she was teenager and throughout her 20s; one of my nieces starting wearing black when she was in junior high. The niece is an RN and neither of them has ever done anything weird or satanic in their lives.
Some people love black - personally, I avoid it like the plaque, don't even buy black shoes or purses.

Try RealSimple.com. This is a marvelous website for anything you might want to know.
Buy Nothing Day (Black Friday)
movement started in the Pacific Northwest, so I celebrate Buy Nothing Day by buying nothing.
My mom used to do that (1970s) with a black wig - sm
She would wear it a lot when my parents went out. She also had a fall of long black hair. I have them both now, though I don't use them, keeping them more for sentimental reasons now.

I believe cottonmouths are black, though not sure on that - sm
and copperheads have a distinct head as do most poisonous snakes (triangular/diamond shape). Copperhead bite is not fatal by any means and usually not even treated with any antivenom....dogs around here just get treated with antibiotics. Cottonmouths are very aggressive and from the sounds of it, it is not cottonmouth.
Black character......
means any black mark (typed character) seen on the page. Sneaky way of saying you are not being paid for spaces - which just boggles my mind..........
She probably would not even know black strap as in
molasses, she is from the ghetto and lack of education, as she cannot even spell her children's names…she says words like skrimps for shrimp, a funeral comes out fumeral, oh no just being on the edge of borderline competency.
ColorFax by Black Ice s/m
I had a problem with WinFax not working with several programs and freezing up. I tried ColorFax and now do not have any problems.
But YOU are the one doing all the name calling
She simply asked you to knock it off....as so many of us would like to echo. Get over yourself and quit knocking everyone who posts on the board. There are some of us who would like to be informed and knowledgeable about our sister MTs and our industry as a whole. If you are not one of them, don't waste your time or our time by coming to this board at all, okay? Your whining is annoying
Hey, who is this guy calling old! How

Name calling
Name Calling or Substitutions of Names or Moral Labels:
This technique attempts to arouse prejudices in an audience by labeling the object of the propaganda campaign as something the target audience fears, hates, loathes, or finds undesirable.
Dangers inherent in name calling: In its extreme form, name calling may indicate that the propagandist has lost his sense of proportion or IS UNABLE TO CONDUCT A POSITIVE CAMPAIGN INTELLIGENTLY.
Before using this technique, the propagandist must weigh the benefits against the possible harmful results.
Have you tried calling?
I know when I had A problem they were able to answer my questions. Have you tried calling them? :)
If he keeps calling you, tell him
him for harassment. I'm pretty sure he would not have handed the title over like that without his money. If she owed him money, where is his proof? receipts showing balance due? Please do not hand over money to someone who may well be a heartless opportunist.
I'm very sorry for your loss. Be well.
calling you?
they say that girls in the trailer park go round the outside, round the outside. I wouldn't be bragging about servicing the neighborhood's husbands.
No need for name-calling here.
The tone of this chain is not malicious nor judgemental. Please don't come on here carelessly calling people names. This woman had a life or death situation on her hands and handled it the best way she could. She came here to help another human being in trouble by giving her valuable first-hand information. In other threads, this malicious tone may be okay, but not here, okay? Please just stay away if you can't bear the comments, okay? These people are hurt enough already. Thank you.
OK without the name calling....sorry
So do you think a nationalized health plan is a good thing for this country?
