I am trying to be really nice, just wanted to make sure someone else thought so, too.

I do love these other two docs, it's just that this one is making me nuts. Knowing that the OM has already talked to her about this twice, mentioning to me as well that she is not comfortable with the HIPAA issue, I though might give some more leverage to the OM. I also thought that was less personal than me saying something like "I find this disrespectful to myself as a transcriptionist."

I appreciate the insight. Thanks!

Marla in So. California pays 11 cpl for a 55 ccl, Oracle pays 9-1/2 cpl, MDI-MD 11 cpl, JLG 10 cpl for gross line, etc.

Of course, these are rates negotiated and paid to qualified MTs.

However, I am truly spineless.  I could not quit because, alas, I am not the only one I'm responsible for here at home.  So, after multiple conversations with folks at work on how they can help to alleviate some of my stress, here I am pounding the keys and probably will continue for a while anyway.  I have let a lot of people down, myself included, with my actions...and not all are work related.  I'm going through some difficult times, but I'm sure there are others out there going through much, much worse. 

I have started taking an anti-anxiety medication though, Lexapro, in the hopes that I can get a grip on my emotions because they do tend to mutate into this huge out-of-control entity and, again, it's not all work related.  I can't remember the last time I did something for me, and apparently if I don't start putting myself first, I'm headed down a very slippery slope.

So, yeah, one day at a time here.  I really appreciate the positive vibes though and I hope everyone else out there is taking care of themselves. 

That my cat is doing much better than a few days ago.  He's eating food, and I saw him drinking today.  I've been giving him subcu fluid for the last couple days.  We are moving to Nebraska on the 6th, so I hope the trip isn't too stressful for him.

Well, I'm having fun playing with this ...I was in mtstars withdrawal there for awhile.  Hope you all are having a great day!

Bye for now

Come to work for Soft Script.  If you are a "newbie" transcriptionist, do not mind us stealing your lines, enjoy rude, threatening, and hateful e mails, and among numerous other things - you like to work for less than minimum wage, then we have the perfect position for you. 

Yes folks, this is what you will get when you go to work for Soft Script, it is a lot of fun, everyone should try it. 

NOT!!!!!!!!!  

to all of you who responded to my post a few weeks ago about insomnia.  I decided to try the Melatonin, and it works wonders!!! I sleep like a baby every night and I don't suffer any side effects.  I also like knowing that it's all natural

Anyway, I just wanted to say THANK YOU!!!!!

 that I welcome corrections from QA's who make corrections that are legitimate, a mis-spelling, wrong term, wrong word, that sort of thing.  I actually look forward to feedback when I get a particularly tough dictator and had to send it in with blanks so I can see if the QA was able to make sense of it so I will have a better chance of getting it next time. I appreciate your help in making me a better MT.  The QA's that I have a problem with are the one's that send my stuff back with "corrections" that are not really corrections, things that would not impact the document in the least.  It is silly, anal, and just makes everyone's job harder.  I just wanted to put that out there because it sounds like from the posts that there are a few good QA's out there that just want to do their job and help us get better as opposed to nit-picking every little, tiny, miniscule thing they can find.  I also especially appreciate the QA's that just give the feedback or explain why the feedback-not the ones with attitude and arrogance and nasty remarks.  Those are the people that need to change jobs, because they are not helping anyone.

Kids are gone.  I'm single.  I'm sick of being in the house 24/7.

I'm thinking about truck driving school.  I love driving. I can drive forever.

I'm going to do my own research regarding schools, salary etc., but would appreciate any "insider" or first-hand knowledge.

I know I need a change.
