Do you think pc attacks only occur at night? They are looking for open pc all the time.
:P

Sounds great! I may make that tomorrow night.

In case anyone is interested, 20/20 tomorrow night at 10 EST will have Teri Irwin (Steve's widow)
who will be interviewed for the first time since Steve's death. I think this will be an interesting and sad segment. I know a lot of people here adored Steve and want to know how she and the children are doing. Just thought I'd let everyone know!
Should just post all their open positions in one post and only be allowed to post one of those a day

I can't wait to post another list tomorrow so we can !!!
 all have fun again. Good night!
What an ugly thing to post. Your job could be outsourced tomorrow, sweetie. FYI...Job security

I've had 3 at one time, but only one open at a time. nm

Lucky thing for me my MD is in the office tomorrow morning, so I made an appointment for tomorrow.
If it is strep, I'll have her give me a shot of penicillin. That's what I usually do for strep. My stomach can't hardly handle taking antibiotics. I end up with vomiting and diarrhea which makes me feel even worse!
Thing is, I work for a hospital and we already have one girl off indefinitely for medical reasons. A couple of ladies didn't log on until late today because we had thunderstorms in the area. And we are way, WAY out of TAT for OPs and Discharges. So, I feel kind of bad taking a sick day. My supervisor is so stressed. She's been begging us to work OT for the last couple of weeks. How can I call her and tell her I'm sick?
I'm halfway through my shift anyway. I'll be all right. The Motrin is really helping and then I can take it easy all weekend.
Thanks for listening.
You don't have to open a post to see how many
have viewed it. It is right beside the date showing at the end of the subject line of each post.
I have no idea what post you are talking about though.
i cannot open ANY post -- just me??

when I open your post
Who is that guy - your husband? Cute.
Yes, I tried to post same last night about 10 times, and it won't let me post.
I used to breed lab puppies (please no activist flames)! I had a champion female white Canadian lab, and people would be on a list for years if by chance I bred her, which I did twice, and so that I could continue her line. Anyhow, she's my sweet Skye who passed away 2 months ago? At any rate, we had the same problems with kids in the "hood" who wanted to come over and play once the puppies were old enough to be exercised daily and played with. At first I thought, how cute, right? Puppies and little kids - what better picture! Well, the majority of kids were adorable, but there were always 1 or 2 sick ones who would smack the pups, smash and hold their heads in the dirt (a real common thing, but I don't know why - psychiatrist anyone). At any rate, I finally had to ban the whole group due to the 1 or 2 creeps, had to call the police, the whole 9 yards, and that's EXACTLY what the police officer told me - next thing is there will be poison meat or a donut in the yard. He told me to always go out and patrol my yard, especially alone the fence line every day before I let the dogs out, particularly at night. I went out with a flashlight. It was about a month later, but sure enough - poison meat. Because there were so many kids involved, we obviously couldn't pin point the exact family, but the police went and read the riot act to them all. It would stop and not happen again for a year or so, but every now and again we would find something. My dogs were NEVER out and barking, so it was nothing like that - it was just over the puppies and the cruel kids.... Not trying to freak you, but that's the way these kids and their families are. You can really judge someone's character by ill treatment of a PUPPY, of all things. And the parents?? They sound whacked. Please be careful.
Thanks for this open and informative post ...
It seems that now getting your own accounts is the only way to go (at least for the time being until the pervasive mood of the industry corrupts even in that area). My curiosity though lies in how those who are claiming that they work for services are able to do this.
Also, congratulations to you for your success in getting your own accounts, and thank you for sharing your insight in a manner that doesn't imply that you're trying to belittle those who don't have their own accounts like I've seen others do on this board.
P.S. On the matter of panhandlers, in the area of the country where I live an investigative reporter did a feature on just this subject a couple of years ago. Believe it or not, it was estimated that panhandlers in this area average approximately $120K per year. I tell you, I'm in the wrong profession ... 
lets us know whether or not we need to open the post. NM

If Ihave both programs open at the same time
and 2 jobs open at the same time - I get both voices when pushing the foot pedal..... so I just close one
Yes, as stated, as long as only one open at a time.
the companies are using different versions of Extext, and in that case, you'd have to go through an upgrade when opening Extext for the different companies.
2 cents you have the most well-rounded open minded post so far.
Thanks for posting.
if the post were pulled wouldn't there be no subject line to open? sm
They don't just delete the guts, the whole thing would disappear.
You can only have one Outlook Express open and downloading emails at a time. If have both the SM
laptop and the PC trying to download email for the same address, you are going to have one downloading some and the other downloading whatever comes in after the first computer downloads, make sense? That's why you are only getting part of your email on one and part on the other. You have two different machines trying to download the same emails.
If you set both Outlook Express programs set up the exact same way on each computer, then both will work, but not at the same time.
Hope that makes sense.
Doc trying to go digital and having a heck of a time/can't open files. Please see message.
I am working with a doctor's office who has an Olympus recorder (I think it's the W-10). She has been trying to send me a sound file. She sent a sound file that was left in the recorder from about a year ago to see if it would work and it opened up just fine for me with my transcription player (Philips Executive SpeechMike kit).
Since that time, she has tried to send many more test dictations that she just recorded herself to try and I am unable to open up any of them. She says that when she downloads the sound file from the recorder to her computer it is a WAV file, but as soon as she tries to email it to me, it changes to a VAL file extension.
This is quite frustrating for both of us and I am trying to find any reason at all that this is not working (since it did work on the first dictation that someone else had recorded previously but won't work since on anything else). This makes me think it might be something she is doing while recording? Is anyone able to tell me anything she might be doing wrong that might be causing this problem? Or any suggestions on anything else we can do?
I did download the voice software that came with her recorder. I am able to play the files there, but not on my Philips transcription player, which I need to do to transcribe the files. As I said before, the first file she sent did play on my transcription player, but none of the files she sent since then will work. I would greatly appreciate any help or suggestions you might have at all. Thank you.
Didn't see last night but saw the first time and...
remember having that same feeling. Couldn't believe the husband was doing her work as if anybody could do it.
Night Owl - Yours is the most worthwhile post I have ever read on these boards
When working from home, whether dealing with clients, MT management, or QA personnel, you can just feel the negative vibes coming off of people over so little. It causes a very stressful environment. Maybe that is where some of the MTs on here develop that attitude, I don't know. The awful insults, comments, and degrading people on here is absolutely unbelievable. Just because you have 15, 20, 30 years of experience in this field, that is no excuse for rudeness. Once you have insulted someone to the point I have seen here, your MT experience means nothing to me, and if I were a management person and knew this about you, you would not work for my company no matter how perfect your MT skills are. This says a great deal about you. Perhaps people in general will write things they would never say to a person face to face. I happen to be a very mature, very experienced MT. I feel like my knowledge should be used to help someone, not degrade them. I hope the MTs who have posted above on this comment will continue to call these people out when they post these horrible comments. Even if you are right (which seems to be the most important thing in the world to them), there is a way of stating facts, opinions, and comments that you have yet to learn in dealing with people even if it is not face to face.
Have no problem with camp - its what she said about night time that reflects her real
parenting attitude. She gets a double bonus cause they're tired at night and she doesn't have to deal with them. That's the horrible statement, but the one she REALLY meant. Now that I called her on it, she's gonna change it to they bake cookies or sing by the camp fire together at night....Please!
You can't just open the attachment. You need to save it to a file and then open SM
your wave player and load it.
I saw HOWIE last night on a late night episode of Blind Date. too funny.
I'm thinking if they are smart they'll boot Rachel. I think she's really smart and a good player. I don't think Howie is all that smart or able to be a winner. I think this could force Howie to hook up with James to go for the final 2.
time of post
Is there a way to tell what time a message is posted? Sometimes I would like to know when a "Word Help" has been posted....if it is new or if it has been there for too long to help. Thanks.
Then how is it that you have time to post here all day long?
so transparent
OMG! Just checked my time sheets regarding the post below
about drop down menu having changed for our stats, and the time sheet is JUST LIKE SPHERIS NOW!!! The poster below is right - there is no more choice of "correction" for editing versus transcription, and there are a zillion in and out boxes to log in, JUST LIKE SPHERIS!! Bet the new "pay plan" is now here, and we'll hear really soon....The time sheets are ready - just might help if we knew, too!
Thank you for taking the time to post back....sm
I'm sure he must be depressed, and my brother also. I'll bring up the subject to him and see if I can make him see that they are really needing some outside help here, more than we can do just as family members. You bring up a lot of good points. Thanks again.
EVERYONE SHOULD TAKE THE TIME TO READ THE POST ABOVE FROM RutgersFanMT.
This is an example of how at least one company manipulates both the Transcriptionist and their own clients to their detriment and to the company's gain. And it is all true.
Sorry, that is not uncommon at this time of year. Post SM
office employees get greedy.
TERRIFIC POST!!.....thanks for taking the time
Well, collectively it probably took 20 minutes of my time to post today.
My kids are out and about. I did all my work. I'm a good girl, you see! I don't really get your perceived "jab" at me at all. Why do you think that because I am in favor of someone being an MT and keeping their precious baby at home as opposed to in day care, that somehow that means I say I spend every minute of my life focused on my kids? I really think when you respond like this, its because you are not confident in your own life - I won't delve deeper, but you feel guilty. Guilty enough to have to make fun of me and put imaginary words in my mouth. I never said a whisper or innuendo that MT mothers with kids at home have to focus every second of their lives on their kids. That's ridiculous! We all know that! And I assume you're the same poster above about camp? You use the same SM. I am sorry to disappoint you that I don't understand your "revelation" about my identity! I never said a word here about camp, and don't follow that thought at all. The OP asked if she could do it - be an MT and have a baby at home. I recognize another poster from below, childfree by choice. She and I have had some wonderful debates in the past, and I think we usually agree to disagree! But certainly nice meeting you, I think??
Thank you for taking the time to post this good advice. NM

That is an interesting site. Thanks for taking time to post it--nm

This is the last time I will post on this subject or back to you beacuse
you are most definitely a very unhappy person who needs something to fuss about...... It can never only cost 7.5% more because your social security and taxes are based on how much you make. When you add your IC income it is different for everyone, depending on what tax bracket they are in, and yes it cost me more. Even if it were 7.5% I would still say it is not worth it for ME but that is my opinion - you are free to have yours.
P.S. I do fill out my own taxes because I also refuse to pay anybody more than it is worth to do them when I can go buy Turbo Tax and fill them out myself. If you really want to see the difference, fill out your Taxes without your IC income and then put it in and see the difference!
Need help on tech board before my post is deleted a third time. Thanks. nm

Best post I've read in a long time.
I tend to go back and forth with my feelings about this profession. In the mornings I am glad I do not have to get up, get ready and go to an office. Many times in the evening, after I have during the day and still have work to do, I feel like stuffing it all. Many times I am disheartened when I get my paycheck, but I am glad to be getting one, while my sister worries about getting laid off from her manufacturing job. MT has advantages and disadvantages.
clicking on your post to see an answer was a waste of time

There is NOTHING to post! The boards were trolled for a long time by the lawyers AGAINST MQ, looking
for any lame info in a very unprofessional (not to mention unethical) manner. They used us and left. Now the law suits are in the "discovery process", where both sides are gathering info, where they can then decide whether to proceed forward or not. No news at all for us MTs. Again, the $$-hungry lawyer(s)? were all over this board months back, stirring up the pot, begging us for info, and then VANISHED!
To adminstrators. Love your new format. Could you please back the actual time of the post.
Love the little smiley faces that can be added too. And the print. Just bring back the time along with the date of post if possible.
The FUNNY thing is that in the amount of time it takes for them to post a message

How do I get it ST to open when escription is open?
It's taco night! (again.....) We had taco pizza last night, southwestern chicken soup before th
Maybe I'll just have a salad.
Having one put on tomorrow...
after many years of thinking about it and finally finding the right picture. I know it's going to be uncomfortable, but I'm ready to get it done.
Looks like tomorrow is going to be
a good one too!
And tomorrow is 6/7/6, so what. nm

We can also die tomorrow...
I buy what I want when I want. Credit card bills can't take your house. Your credit score goes down and they hound you to death, but that's nothing. I say live it up! No, we didn't purchase the larger home because I didn't want to have to clean it! We do have 2 brand new vehicles though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lovin' it!!!!!!!!!!!! This is what I work for everyday, not so I have to do without. I do "with!!!!!" I live and love and spend every day doing what I want to do and when I want to do it..... Well, I guess I gave away the fact that I'm an IC with no restrictions or limitations. Hubs works and makes decent money, but even if I didn't have his income, we'd be just fine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
