Yeap, I confess. I sent my husband out on his dingy, and he dropped anchor because he is sick of me not paying all the bills and giving him thousands each month.
I confess.... I wanted the clear dictators that they send overseas while we struggle with the worst ones.
I confess... I am tired of getting paid half of what I was making interning in college with 4 times or more the cost. I do not get raises ever; I get pay cuts while spending more and more money on technology to ease the doctors' dictation process.
I confess.... I am sick and tired of seeing so many of my own medical reports look like swiss cheese. No wonder I flat lined during surgery when the overseas Transcriptionist typed the wrong medication, and my anesthesiologist overdid it...
I confess..... I want my own accounts back instead of working for services that pay me 1/4 of what they charge the client....
I did it. I am now trying to locate tankers on the other side of the world for additional help or loaning me their anchors. Please donate to the "Adopt an Anchor, Save Our Jobs Foundation." Who knows, the next anchor dropped could provide you with a job!

I used MK foundation once
and it did cause my face to itch. My sister used to be a MK director. I do LOVE their mascara, though, because it is the only kind I can wear that does not cause me to look like a raccoon by afternoon (oh, a rhyme!) I don't wear much makeup, though, especially when working at home.
I'm very bummed out. He's the anchor I always looked for during any major news story. nm

The trailer I had was not on a permanent foundation,
the wheels were removed, and the interest rate was not outrageous.
We had a dog adopt us. Never saw in the neighborhood
before, no collar. I took to our vet to scan for a microchip and doesn't have one. Vet won't keep the dog because it needs all shots, which we can't afford to do. Dog is a lab and we have no place to keep her, plus we have a dog who is not tolerant of another dog and has chronic medical problems. We feed/water the dog and are providing it with a warm place to sleep, though it is a very small space and not suitable for long-term.
I have notified all the vets in our area, called the shelter, sent e-mails to all residents with e-mail addy in our community, placed an ad in our local newspaper and placed signs at major neighborhood intersections. There has been no ad in the paper looking for a dog, no signs, no one appears to be looking for her. What do you think is an appropiate amount of time to keep her before we try to find her a new home? She is just the sweetest dog and we have all fallen in love with her, but cannot provide for her. We find it difficult to believe that no one appears to be looking for her. DH says she is very conscious of cars like she is searching for "the one" and feels like she was dumped. I can't/won't take her to the pound, although due to her personality we feel she will be adopted immediately.
We're too close to the situation to be objective.
We adopt kittens and the last ones
got some sickness that is normal to shelter animals. What helped a lot was lysine. Seems crazy I know but it helps with the immune system. We put crush it in their food, but with a dog you could probably give in a piece of hot dog. It took about 2 days and they were significantly better. We also had an adult cat that started coughing violently like she was trying to cough up a hairball. This seemed to be mostly a stress reaction as she didn't care for the new additions and if they got anywhere near her she started coughing. We first did a course of antibiotics with very minimal relief and when the antibiotics stopped the coughing started back. We then did another course of antibiotics and a course of prednisone and that has stopped the coughing. We had to do a maintenance dose of prednisone for life as they decided she probably had stress-induced asthma and that if we totally discontinued the pred that another flare would be harder to treat. We're about 6 months into treatment and so far so good.
Sounds like you have your hands full.
I used to use MK foundation, but they changed the formula and now I'm allergic to it.
It makes my eyes water and I can't wear it any longer. I haven't found a foundation that I like as well as the previous MK formula. I wish they hadn't changed it.
Where do you live - I'll adopt her! nm
You can just list the state. If you are nearby, I will come get her.
I have a 3 year old golden retriever at home and she needs a furry friend.
You are asking for trouble. Your marriage must come first as the foundation for a strong family. nm

I wish more people would adopt unwanted children.
.
Here's how foster-to-adopt works on the federal level...sm
All non-Caucasian over age 1 automatically get adoption assistance. All Caucasian kids over age 8 get adoption assistance. If you adopt a sibling group that is more than 2 kids you get adoption assistance. All special needs children qualify for adoption assistance. Adoption assistance usually means Medicaid until they're 18 and in a lot of cases the monthly per diem rate is paid to the adoptive family. For the special needs kids, sibling groups and non-white children that meet the adoption assistance criteria generally the fees for adoption are reimbursed up to $2000 - which is pretty much what all of the attorneys charge for these adoptions since Child Protective Services/DFCS does the majority of the paperwork.
We're currently in the process of adopting our 6-year-old foster child who has lived with me since she was almost 5. The adoption should be finalized in January after my husband meets the 6 months residency requirement (we got married in June and he moved here from another state at that time).
I did try to save the file first but it wouldn't even let me save it.

supposed to be, after people lose their jobs, they are forced to take part-time, lower-paying jobs..
with little to no benefits. service jobs. where are you going to work in a few years, when Medical Transcription is replaced by technology? McDonald's, Walmart? you really going to like that?
Several jobs on Monster & CareerBuilder for inhouse office jobs down there through an

I did 3 jobs for a while about 3 years ago, you burn out quick, I was doing 3 MT jobs though...after
10 months I cut down to 2 as I don't like to have all my eggs in one basket. But I am considering going down to 1 in September for my sanity, its a good steady job so financally it should not be an issue. I have 2 right but have not worked the 1 in about 3 weeks due to some problems at their end, supposed to learn a VA account but not sure if I want to pursue it right now or not, they are waiting to hear from me at this point. I still have a lot going on with chemo, etc. so am mulling things over. But if you have a full-time day job, then I would just go with 1 part-time MT job at night, unless 1 is during the week, and the other weekends only, then of course you will be working 7 days a week, very tiring I know. I have been working 7 days a week for 3 years now but I do slack off now and then of course to recharge and get sleep etc. But burnout happens fast and I doubt you want to lose your day job so be careful. Good luck. 
Two jobs very common, 3 jobs not unheard of.

save it for another day
Yes, I agree with you, but apparently some people are unable to NOT be rude, so I have decided to give it up for today..... it just takes to much energy to argue. Not to mention, they can't even grasp the fact that you and I are two DIFFERENT PEOPLE................. so, there ya go.
oh, and bye the bye, in the churches I grew up in Amen was a form of agreement.
Can you tell me how you save your
that it cannot be saved. I'm sure this is a no brainer and I'm making it worse by thinking too much about it - any help would be appreciated.
Will somebody save me?
 Hi, deep trouble here. Reorganized under my desk (bad mistake, I guess, although the cords are nice and lined up now) and when I plugged the C-phone back in it went crazy and now I get dial tone from handset, but that is all. Can't find the manual after searching for hours. Anyone know what might be wrong or if I need to reprogram this thing? I went to their website, but it is down at the place where you sign in. Of course! Can't work, so need as much help as I can get. Thanks in advance.

Even if you save yourself a
template, you still listen to the entire report and change the words as necessary. You don't leave it if that's not how it's dictated. Setting up your own template saves time & Keystrokes because a lot of times you will have entire sentences or sections the same, but you still must ALWAYS listen to the entire report & make any and all changes.
In addition to OPs, I also make macros for PEs, ROSs, etc., for dictators who usually are repetitive.
Yup! Not only short jobs, but also jobs from
extremely difficult dictators, bad sound files, jobs that need lots of ADT info added, and anything else that is not "easy" to do. I also questioned them about this and was told the same - they do not allow cherrypicking. Definitely not true!
I always use RXList. com on the web and save
paper that way:)
Did you save the sound
Did you save that sound file on your computer? That has surely got to be a first!!
did you try to hit F11 anyway? Usually you cannot see them after you save the document.. but they a

Do yourself a favor & save yourself a ton
of grief. Get a reputable real estate agent and don't screw with these FSBO agents. I promise that all they will do is take your money and won't really WORK to sell your house. That's the difference. A REPUTABLE agent will work their butts off to sell your house.
It will save the phrase but not
the bold, does not come out bolded. What else can I do?
Then seriously, save it to your desktop. That's it.

save it to a disc

Save and print
I print and deliver, save on hard drive for one year and then on CD or zip forever it seems. Finally went through and threw out files from 10 years ago.
Is there someway to save something
like the end of a letter. i.e. Thank you for the referral of the patient. Sincerely, Doc's name etc. He ends all his letters the same way. My niece said that somehow I could put that in my computer and just push something like F7 and it would automatically print that. Have any idea about this? Thanks!
Save as option
I do not use Word, but is there a save as option? From there it may give you options as to what type of file to save as. I think if you choose something like a text file, it may get rid of formatting, but not sure.
try save as and change to .wav
The answer is yes but always save
your files before you do any upgrade just to be on the safe side. You can open 2003 documents in 2007 and they open just like they always have. Word 2007 opens them in compatability form but that is not something you see its built in to the program. However, unless you save your documents as "Word 97-2003 Document" (already built in to the options of 2007 when you click save as or you can set it up to always do that) anyone else without 2007 will not be able to open them unless they have the compatability patch. Same with Excel documents.
I have both intances of 2003 and 2007 running on my computer and can swtich back and forth without any problems.
Feel free to email me directly with any other questions.
Tried that... and still doesn't save right or
load for my autotext. :(
I think the advice you got to get it, try it, save the
receipt was good advice. What do you expect. How rude.
Did you save any of the e-mails
If so, then just include that with a nice letter to your past employers about the fact that your working arrangement did not work out.
If that doesn't work, you may want to see if there is a way to sue her for defamation of character. She has to have good grounds to be calling your previous employers. Was this the lady at Seascript? She seemed to have some problems, but I think she was getting help.
Save what? The normal.dot?
If you checked the option to prompt you to save the normal template, you will be asked if you want to save changes that affect the normal.dot. This can be formatted AutoCorrect entries, AutoText entries, macros, toolbar changes, and a few other changes.
If you clear the check for the prompt option, changes will be saved anyway and you will not get the message.
Or are you being asked to resave the normal.dot to another name? If that's the case, you have a problem.
Save the e-mails you get and, when you
get one from QA person B that contradicts what QA person A said in the old one, reply to B with a cc to A saying in a very nice and professional way that you had understood it to be such-and-such based on what A had told you before. This will start a dialogue among the QA folks and, hopefully, the correct answer will be found and published.
save your money...
I've used it before. The software they include on the cd is Express Scribe which can be downloaded for free on the internet.

I was thinking about buying the All 'n One kit too, but I found that it was cheaper to buy the foot pedal and headphones separately and download the software for free.
I'll tell you why: To save on TAT.

For my company, I do not save any
patient files on my laptop, so therefore no breech of security is possible and I transfer the files over the internet, just the same as with my PC.
It is so they can save money....
If they outsource, they will have 24/7 coverage, no need to pay out benefits, no need to pay vacation time, etc. This has happened to many, but all that you can really do is either work for that outsourced company or find another job. It's tough out there! Sorry to hear that you're being outsourced. You are not obsolete though, as I'm making more money anyway now than I ever have at my hourly job that I lost after 15 years to outsourcing...
Everyone is trying to save money
the short way of saying between the head and stomach? LOL Thanks for the cheering up today!
People should save their compassion for someone
The liberal-loonies never learn. How sad.
no problem... just go to File and Save As
then from the drop-down box chose the Word .doc format to save your file as. You can also program one of your F keys or a control or alt key to do this for you, using the Tools --- Settings --- Customize --- Keyboard
It's just another way some companies have found to save

Save reports and use the compilations to get
a great start on your own glossary. I've done several for different accounts to customize them to my own.
Stay with production if you want to save your
reputation. I have never found a shift supervisor or team leader with any integrity and unless you can shift all your words around easily to adapt to every situation, stay where you are. In short, supervisors and leads have learned to be masters at lying.
bible thumpers. god save us.
