Why do you assume every post is directed . . .
to you or in reference to your posts???? Sorry, but the world and this board don't revolve around you. Get real.
Been at home for over a year now and I switched to night shift. I work for a national. Started out
working the night shift and sleeping in shifts during the day. My kids are way older but that doesn't mean they don't interrupt me. Besides, there the phone issue, more interruptions, the dogs bothered me a lot, too. Love them dearly but, oh so spoiled. It was taking me 10 hours to do what I can do in 8 on nights, plus I manage to get more sleep, if you can believe that. I still get supper on the table, vacuum, laundry, etc. So far it is working pretty good, so I think I will put in for permanent night hours for awhile. No sense in working 10 when I can work 8.
Yep, I had to work today, didn't get dinner started until 1:30
So just got done with dinner at 5 pm!! But just thankful to have a job at home where I got to spend the day with my daughter, rather than if I would have had to go out to work today, like some people did! Maybe someday I will get the holiday off, but this is second best!
I proof as I go. I didn't when I first started umpteen years ago. nm

Okay, call me weird, when I started I didn't feel...sm
that way. I read about becoming in an MT and I read all 3 books then available on the subject. I found the names of only 2 schools, HPI and At-Home Professions. I found out all I could about them both before making a decision. I didn't go in ill-informed. HPI said right up front that at least 60% of the people who take their course can't do the job, or find it too difficult. My thoughts? It wasn't the program because the advice from those books about a training course was what HPI offered. I felt that what I put into my training would pay off in my successful career. I over studied. I didn't fudge on anything. I wrote out every term 3 times to memorize the spelling (I was a horrid speller then, top notch today). I WORKED for it.
I think that is why I had a good career going pretty fast and by 3 yrs I could make full time money on full time hours. I did a fair amount of job switching and not always for more money, but rather for the experience of the work. I had a plan. I had a goal. That goal was to transcribe OP notes full time. It took about 7 or 8 yrs, but I ACHIEVED IT!
So, after the way I approached this, I make it very clear that it is hard work, that the pay on the face of it isn't great, but hard work and continuous learning will get you there in time.
Actually, it started long before the post you're talking about.
'Shroom had nothing nice to say in a number of different threads, mostly because she didn't want to believe what people were telling her about the kind of income they are able to generate by working for themselves. Either way, the word is inappropriate and should not be used. Fighting among each other is non-productive and only makes this site less useful to those who need information, encouragement and a place to turn for advice. The "advice" and name calling that was undertaken by 'Shroom is inappropriate and should be deleted.
What a great post! I have 3 kids and my oldest just started college ...
I miss him like crazy even though he comes home every weekend with his laundry! He is also a drummer in a band and for some reason, their new drum set is at my house. But, I realize that soon enough my house will stay clean and the noise (i.e. - drums, guitars, laughing, fighting - not sure I'll miss the fighting!) will quiet, so I try to enjoy it all as much as possible. (excuse me while I go have a quick cry and then get back to work!  )
Happy New Year, everyone!
Oh my..I'm afraid my original post started a flame I did not anticipate...sm
I think it just proves there are companies out there that are not worth our time and some that are. I left my email address (in my original post above)and would very much like to hear about companies that are fair, honest, have steady work, treat their employees professionally and yes...do pay a minimum of 10 cents a line. I know they exist and would appreciate input from those of you who know who they are. You can email me privately so as not to start another flaming war! Thanks for your help.
Didn't the post say PT, 15,000? THAT's PT???nm

I didn't think she was being mean about my post.....was she?
I didn't take it that way.
Didn't know the other post was from you
and I do have a hard time believing $98K in just 30 hours a week, but anything is possible I suppose.
oh. I obviously didn't see the post below before.
I thought it was just like your existential scream for the day or something, heh.
12 noon to 3 PM - I am at 1261 and done for now.
I too get slower as the day progresses. Work better in 2-3 hour bursts!
Link didn't post

I didn't get any of what you said from the previous post
I think the poster was just saying that nationals do those things mentioned. Nowhere was it said in her post that nationals are crooks. Those are your words and you're trying to put them in her post because she she contradicted your theory.
Sorry, here it is..it didn't post correctly

Me, too. I was going to post earlier, but didn't
have the energy. I had the twitching thumb first about a year ago, now aches and pains every week that move or migrate all over, too. Numb legs, butt that kills me - seriously, I nearly cry when I sit down or stand up. Then it moves to my neck, or shoulders, and then back to legs. It is horrible pain, and I'm getting really worried that I'm not going to hold up for this job much longer. Its so pathetic - sitting in a chair and falling apart. I was wondering if it could be fibromyalgia-type symptoms. Horrible. You are not alone! I have also bought so many ergonomic things - chair, keyboard, mouse "platform", and forget it. Oh yes, even lighting, and I still am in pain all over the second I sit down in this chair. 
You need to reread the post. I didn't say
all the freebies were scams.
I didn't get your post either Rita.
Did he do the face lift or not? If he did the face lift and dictated it at a later date and predated the report then that goes on all of the time. When a doctor fails to dictate then it is is dictated at a later date but the date of the actual service or the study, etc. is performed usually does not change. 
I drink 2, maybe 3 cups a day and before noon.
I didn't mention his gender in my post at all
as you so eloquently put, the fact he does not communicate with his patients.
Being an animal doctor hardly qualifies any person or any gender to run a government health program for any person of any gender.
Being smart and trustworthy are only part of what it takes to run such an agency. Maybe a little experience?
Never mind..I didn't see your post answering that sm
very question below.
Mea Culpa.
And sadly, I don't have the Spheris Expander to which you were referring.
duh, sorry, didn't read post below mine. NM

I didn't read your way-too-long post, but...
did you type all that out, or copy and paste from somewhere, cause if you typed it all out...you need to get a life and quick!
Oops, picture didn't post

You didn't read the post very carefully.

Link didn't work in last post

I didn't post that but if I had to make a guess...
I would guess the poster meant that newbies always feel they have a high accuracy.
Don't be offended....if that is what was meant.
Ask your QA or supervisor where you stand. At least you care !!!
Didn't post the question but I have the same problem
thanks for a great suggestion.
Two times mine didn't......but I think I saw a post
xx
Sorry. Didn't read your post correctly
I don't use the compile feature, but build my glossaries as I go along. Never cared for the results I got with compiling.
ooops - SORRY! I didn't relize my first post
my apologies!
On the noon news they were interviewing the babysitting....sm
man whose wife was too distraught to talk on camera. Seems as though when the child's mother was told of her son's death she admitted that they had had problems with him unlocking doors and walking around in the middle of the night and failed to tell this to the couple/friends that were watching him. She gave birth to a girl on Sunday and her son died today. What a tragedy.
It's 12:00 noon, time for a line check.
 
IC work split 7am-noon then 10-1am ... my choice nm

She didn't put any names or even employment locations with her post --
she simply listed errors she sees. I would keep a list as well; could be very useful in training new MTs or orienting even experienced MTs about what they have had in the past, how easy it is for one to just "type what they hear" and not pay attention, etc.
She didn't do anything wrong.
Hey, no problem. I didn't post a name or initials, so you probably wouldn't have known it was
xxxx
OK, chart didn't post correctly, but link will nm
nm
well, excuuuuse me. I didn't realize it had been deleted till after my first post
nm
Didn't see your post but apparently we agree it is a good site! lol
nm
No offense, but your post didn't make any sense whatsoever.
Maybe you didn't explain it right, but I read and re-read and don't understand a thing you just said.
I didn't know I need to post EVERY reason I got into MT...Good God! **rolling eyes***
I stand by my posts as well. YES I did say my children, but pardon me for not listing EVERY SINGLE REASON I got into MT. My children are always number one at the top of my priority list as they should be and that's why I mentioned them. And no, I'm having a good day, but I am astounded with the nastiness on these boards. I've never seen such unahppy people. Is this was MT does to a person?
Work morning, noon and night.....sort of...have always had at least 2 jobs, sometimes 3 -
in 1 basket. I just make myself a schedule for each job and try to stick to it, or work a lot early before kids get up for school, then work the 7 hours I get free during the day, then another 2-3 at night in order to do it all. Generally take 1 day off (Saturday) and 1 night off a week (Friday night usually) to try and keep sane. It can be done but it does grow old quick....been doing it for 3+ years in varying degrees of nuttiness.
You obviously didn't read the post carefully. Try again in a more sober frame of mind.
It made sense to me.
sorry, i didn't read your post before I posted mine...says the same thing, pretty much! :) nm
nm
Yes--it airs at noon in the Pacific time zone after a repeat of last week's show. nm

Why does everyone assume that
the MT is on the board during working hours. And even if they aren't, why must we make it our business??
Please don't assume
I type basic 4 plus radiology and have done clinic as well. I am very well-rounded and a CMT.
please don't assume
I didn't mean to offend anyone by my comment - I apologize if I did.
