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

In Reply to: My opinion is that - sm
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!

wanted to try it but wanted to make sure

I alway thought they wanted a 96 or better - sm
on a test, at least back in 2001 that was the magic number for MedQuist.
wanted to add it was nice of you to positively reinforce MT efforts on difficult dictations...(nm)

How nice that the world revolves around what you make and no one else could possibly make more. sm
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.

We simply wanted to know what you unbiased workers for other companies thought.

If everyone wanted to make a little effort...
And take an area to call, I bet the information could be obtained from the hospitals, etc. There is no reason you couldn't call and say you are considering a procedure/doc there and want to ensure your private information is secure and you would like to know if their billing/transcription is done in-house, outsourced or both, and if outsourced, to whom. I have received answers, but sometimes I have had to make a few more calls.
Yes, Clinton wanted to make sure Hussein
didn't have weapons of mass destruction, that's why we had inspectors, etc., and guess what it was working because everything we were told before going in there were lies....he didn't have any and Bush has admitted that fact.
Wanted to make stuffed cabbage but sm
Wanted to make stuffed cabbage but wasn't sure about Internet recipe. Made teriaki chicken instead. If you have a good recipe, would you mind sharing it?
The only way I'd make what a man wanted for dinner every night....
......would be if that man made $200,000 or more a year and I didn't have to work, period. ; )
Metoo - thought it was very nice and ....nm
That is so nice you guys thought of me!
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.
Thank you - that is what I have, but wanted to make sure as the doctor is correcting a previous repo

Nice to be thought of...wishing you happy thanksgiving as well...(no message)

Nice tips, but to make any computer run faster
I get so frustrated when people tell me they need a new computer because theirs is to slow. The first question I ask is "how many pictures do you have on there?" Standard response "oh at least a couple hundred, but the guy at the store said it could hold Xamount" yes it can, and every picture/video you add is taking up space. Invest in a few flash drives!!
You're welcome! Start dealing with some lawyers, and they make MQ look nice!
Do you LPN's on-call make around $50-60 an hour?!! Nice chunk of change! nm

How nice is this keyboard? Nice light touch?
I have a regular Microsoft ergonomic one now but I'm thinking I should probably get a replacement and use mine as a backup.
I was nice today, and people were nice to me.
If you steer away from the nastiness, there are a few nice and encouraging posts in there.
You spending 3K in gasoline to make 4K plus all that time on the road?That doesn't make sense Pat
Just wanted to let you know (SM)
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

WANTED:
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!!!!!!!!!
That was exactly the one I wanted to take.
However, there aren't any Irish dance instructors in my area. I searched ebay for the instructional videos last night.

I can't believe you wanted to
Lame 'O' Rama!
I just wanted to be sure you all saw my...
"Thank you" down below. The response to this post was crazy and I appreciate the solid support you have given. Please pray for me to have the courage to face this leap of faith. He says he wants to make things better and that he loves me. I have not told him that I love him since he hit me in the eye two weeks ago and he has noticed. I think he realizes that I am tired of all the nonsense and that this could go either way right now depending on his behavior. I am strong, but I just have to believe in myself. I'll keep you all posted. Thanks again. J.
Just wanted to say thanks
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!!!!!
i wanted to say too
when my mom was contemplating having the surgery, the surgeon provided her with names and numbers with patients who already had the surgery so that she could talk to them and see what their experience was.
I wanted to be....
An archaeologist/paleontologist (sic), a zoologist, or a veterinarian. Then I found out how long it took to go to school. That ended that!
I wound up going for computer programming. Hated that. Loved typing and computers but hated the programming end of it, so went into accounting. Me....who flunked math in school, but it challenged me and I was good but not enough typing for me. Then did typing for a book company...got bored. Now I'm an MT. What a life!
Please don't ask my age. LOL
Just wanted to add . . .
It is a blessing to have this site to go to where there are others who truly understand the pain/abuse we take/put up with. Only another MT could possibly understand what it is like at times.
I also wanted to add this ...
Many may actually know the terminology but make mistakes in their transcription or typos. Still, it is incorrect and it cannot be accepted.
Hearing correctly is one thing; transcribing it correctly to the document is another.
I think many errors happen on the transcription phase, not the hearing/understanding phase.
Thanks so much! That was exactly what I wanted to know....nm

I really wanted to ask
my former PS to send me a picture but I was too shy and knew I should not anyway. His voice sounded sexy and just by the way he talked about things in general I had a feeling he was.
yea... i NEVER did whatever I wanted
and as an IC i had every right to, but I stuck to my 24 hour TAT for seven years unless I was sick... i NEVER did vacations, I Never took time off... EVER. Now i'm kicking myself for it since after 7 years they have betrayed me.
Wanted to add
I wanted to add that I do work someplace else also because I don't believe in this industry you can put all your eggs in one basket but I do think Transcend is a nice place to work overall.
Just wanted to say
THANK YOU for the replies. I did receive an e-mail response also, and appreciate that too :).
I am feeling a bit better about this, but still worried too . . . just part of my personality, I guess.
I would still like to hear from others who have experience with this, and thanks again!
Just wanted to say
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.
When I see mistakes I repeatedly make, I make a quickcorrect for it (sm)
for example if I type we plant o instead of "plan to" I have a quick corrct so that if I type plant o, it replaces it with plan to, etc. It is hard - I was with the same company for 8 years. I do not work for anyone with an accuracy requirement though.
What I wanted to do but never did (and probably shouldn't)
I always wanted to tape record about 20 minutes of the yapping and then play it back right outside when the neighbor had a window open, preferably in the middle of the night!
Big rig info wanted
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.
I have always wanted to be able to use "sic" ...
in reports where we know darn well it's wrong but that's what they dictate. Sic means "just as" and is used where the writer/typist knows something is incorrect or unusual but that was the way it was presented (in our case, the dictator). That way the reader of the reports would know it wasn't our error but the dictator's. However, I have never seen where this is allowed in MT.
you could fix it if you wanted to or is it verbatim? nm

I wanted to offer ...sm
our RV that is in our yard. DH reminded me that the kids still sleep there because of our house fire (dishwasher door caught fire). Our house is still in disrepair.
I'll have to find another way to help.
I don't think I asked about MQ. I just wanted to know the
Shorthand and Shortcut, so I can buy the best one.
Not OP but wanted to post about rad. sm
I work for Keystrokes on two different accounts. One is the best account ever, and I literally type 22-26 reports per hour. I have been on the same account for 4 years, use Shorthand religiously, sit and type straight through 6 hours 6 days a week (my choice). About a year ago, I got a bug in my bonnet and asked to change accounts. It was right as the new residents came in, and it seemed to be the worst group ever. I moved to another account, and my counts cut in half.
So, I would recommend Keystrokes for radiology accounts but by the report and make sure that it is an account that either pays links or pays higher because it does not pay links.
Yeah, that's why I wanted to know what it was.

I think you wanted to stir the pot
You wouldn't be celebrating the "holiday" if it weren't for the birth of Christ, why celebrate at all if you want to leave the "religion" out of it since that is the reason for the holiday. I think that you wanted to "stir" things up otherwise you would just be observing quietly and not making a fuss about what your bliefs are or are not.
