She asked, I answered and my answer
not what OTHERS wanted so they answered, not her. If you don’t want a variety of answers, should never throw out on this board.
If it was answered on another forum, let me know. This is the first time I have asked.

You asked, I answered truthfully. It's not my fault you don't believe it.

These are not petty! These are major sm
things that any experienced MT should know. You need to take the correction as it was intended...........not to be petty but to fix things that you have been doing wrong for years! The docs don't know formatting and unfortunately most of the hospitals don't either. Be glad you FINALLY have some correction! Why you would waste your time checking everyone elses transcription is beyond me.
This kind of transcription is why I don't get too excited when I have an "experienced" MT call me to test for a job. I have tested MANY MTs with experience even more than yours and gotten the same thing! Sometimes people have been working for the same place for years and never been corrected.
This kind of stuff is why (in my opinion) that all MTs should have at least 2-5 years experience in an acute care facility before going out on their own! This "new wave" of going to MT school and then opening your "own business" is bringing this profession way down! It needs to stop.
Isn't Richard Petty from there? nm

All this petty bickering and it's not even the MedQ board! oh my!
Have you ever heard of Richard Petty? He lives in Level
Cross, which is a hop, skip, and a jump from GSO.
White Stripes, Black-Eyed Peas, Tom Petty, Chrissy Hynde
Life is life....the haven't bonded the same as if it were a 2-year-old!

Bad things? what bad things? people's being petty and small?

I make sure the job is not my life and that it does not take over my life. sm
I have been at this 25 years, even once had my own accounts and worked 24/7 with cat naps to keep going but no real sleep. I really burned myself out. Now I work a regular 40-hour week, but it is not my life. It is a means of making money so I can go live my life. I work for a company that is not all about production. They want us to take our time and do it right. I am doing that, and it feels so good to be able to work at my craft and be allowed to do a good job while I am at work.
But after I get off, I have my family and I take time to have fun and enjoy life. I think that is the key to not staying burned out. You need down time, time to have fun, exercise, relax, etc.
Exercise is very important, too. It rejuvenates the hormone system so you have more positive hormones flowing through your body and helps get rid of stress.
That's what I do.
every question asked on here could be documented in some book. So? cant a question be asked?

Thank you all who have answered! That's what I like...
about coming here, the diversity of answers. You ladies (and maybe guys) have been a great help! Thank you.
thanks to those of you who answered
think I'll give the 5htp a try - i'm in a stressful situation and I think my depression is situational,thanks again.
I'm sorry nobody answered you. I am sorry
for your dad, too. I have no personal experience with those exact meds; however, I am very allergic and/or intolerant to many meds, and Zantac actually does that to me - makes me an emotional mess. I am on other meds that give me GI upset, and I have to take Zantac for a few days until either my GI system calms down, or my emotions are shot. It makes me very labile. For elderly people and those with allergies or intolerances, that can be a very common side effect - also, as I'm sure you know, elderly people are hyper-sensitive to many meds and/or have bizarre reactions - not the usual warnings on label. I hope things work out - he'd probably rather have GI distress than be agitated or upset. Good luck.
I answered their ad and
So I got my own job. I have many years of experience. I went through 2 other jobs before with larger companies, then I found this one with a small company and I just love where I am at now. I did not use them at all. I don't know why they would put themselves out there and then not bother to reply.
Many thanks to all who answered!

Answered below and yes
NM
you just answered your own sm
question! you have only been doing this for a few months! Are you doing acute care or doctors office stuff that you already had been doing. There is no way with only a few months experience you can go home and work on acute care for a MT company and expect to make any money.
Same thing I have been talking about in this field forever. Too many folks want to get very little experience and then leave and "work at home" not realizing they have to have some experience.
You need to go and get some in-house experience.
thanks to all who answered
you are the best...and no sarcasm!
Curious -- Who are you asking? Someone else answered..? lol nm
..
Thanks to all who answered! I will try your suggestions. nm

nm
Okay, you answered my question. nm

NEVERMIND. No one answered anyway.
Pffffffttt!
Answered you down at your other post
See down under your other post. E-mail me and I will try and help but I don't thinkyou will need some equipment, etc. to start. Gotta go do deliveries.
You answered your own question...
Enjoy it. You will regret it if you don't!
thank you. someone answered this on the mq board
thx though
and she answered you. why the 'tude? nm
.
Do a search here. This ? gets answered almost every day.

We answered this the other day - The average is 3:1
1 hour of dictation will take 3 hours to "type" transcribe.
Dont know if JAM answered but....
I copied this from his/her email.
Position the curser where you want to start, (beginning of sentence)
press F8, hit the period key. It will then highlight to the period and
you can delete. This will work with commas also. If you get stuck in
the mode or change your mind, just hit esc. Just remember to hit F8,
then hit whatever key you want to highlight to, then delete.
Answered back
Again some companies do differ in amounts by the last month paid as you can invoice out for December in January and they sometimes accure that amount so they can deduct it in that year. I have still claimed it in the year that I received it and did this for many years and never had a problem. So as long as there is not a huge 10 to 15K difference I think that the IRS knows this. Again 1099's can be corrected and sent in if there is a discrepancy in the amount. Feel safe as long as you have the records to indicate what you received in the year.
I have answered your question above. (nm)
nm
Your question was answered and not at all with
any sarcasm from what I read.
It seems that the poster just answered in as few words as possible.
I understood he/she to mean without experience, the company would hire from within.
Very simple.
How did you get that they were assuming you had no experience? seems that you are the one assuming eh?!
Thanks to you all who answered. One more question.......
How do you know which C-phone will be compatible with everything?
They answered. Said he was from Pakistan and that all MTs
x
You answered your own question!
They can't spell!
LOL! Thank you and everyone who answered without complaing (nm)

My question is not answered though
Are these records done by MTs or is this the punch a screen and put on the information.
I also want to thank DeeAnn who answered
my question so kindly and the person who posted with BINGO-LOL is confused and needs help.
Stop trying to be Sherlock Holmes, it is pathetic!
sa, thank you so much, this answered all my questions...nm
nm
You answered somebody's inquiry
a few weeks ago about my company and it sounded as though you were a current employee.
Hey, it's okay to vent. I know it must be frustrating.
I'm glad I have not had to buy a BOS 3. That would make me mad. They are waaaay too expensive. 
This is answered on the Word board. SM
Just go to that board and scroll down, or do a Find (in the Edit menu if you have IE).
No one was being rude. They just answered her question.
She IS a newbie and thought she was being trained wrong when, in fact, she is probably being trained right. She doesn't know the rules of transcription.
Well, that pretty much answered my question!
You keep using your high school diploma and playing "I win" games back and forth on the computer. I have a feeling that's all you have anyway, which, my dear, is not much.
Answered A LONG TIME AGO - DUH. SM
I guess we can assume you only answered it to be able to put down the original poster? I hope you get the same one day, I really do. Wish I could see it happen. You are hateful.
Is there a reason you answered for Sheri
I think *that* shows a lack of respect for someone. I also said Sheri ONLY was to answer the question (because she is the administrator of the board).
And in terms of "when in Rome do like the Romans do ..." Just call Rosa Parks.
I'd like one, too! I answered your post on the other board.
I'm sure they'll need an experienced technician to work at home, though. Just like any other job, they don't hire newbies without experience to work at home right away. It's better to learn in-house from experienced people than to try to go it alone. You can't troubleshoot over the phone and fix someone's computer if you've never actually done it in real life. College merely lays the foundation, it doesn't make you an expert in the field.
I've been trying to find an at-home tech job for over 10 years now. It's not easy. Too much competition out there with all the youngsters and Y2K layoffs. Totally saturated market with much lower wages than 10 years ago. People generally don't quit at-home tech jobs because they're hard to come by.
wow...okey dokey..answered my ????
wouldnt of been DTSS in springfield MO was it?
