themselves asked me if I'd be interested.  That was 10 years ago though and still going strong, but now I think the competition keeps one from landing their own accounts.  However, it can be done.  I've heard others say they've mailed flyers or gone cold-calling to offices with a business card.  I guess if you have local medical facilities, it's worth a try.  Even mailing a letter with a business card could land you an account.  You never know who is unhappy with their current transcription provider. 

One account I had (he's since retired) asked me because his Transcriptionist was retiring.  So quirky stuff can happen. 

Most of the time my laptop is plugged in. Sometimes I unplug it to play games in bed or if we are having a storm.

I wondered about purchasing a battery back up in addition, even if you can do that with a laptop that already has a battery built in, which I don't know. :) This is my first laptop and I have only had it for about two months.

edition and the CD that comes with it is an outdated spellchecker and not the dictionary on CD-ROM.  The Stedman's one is just the CD and they are always more than the book.  The have more detailed info on the CD.  I have an older version of the book and I think I've used it 2 times in 10 years.   When I update my Stedman's now I buy the CD and I might use it more if I had it on CD versus the book, though with their CDs now you can only install it twice.  They also have the book, but it is about $50.  

Check the classified board here and check half.com.  You can most likely find it cheaper at either place. 

can take the responsibility and offer a limited warranty that it performs properly.  Or can recondition the equipment.  Myself, I would not buy and Lanier is expensive.  A lot of job worksites want MTs to provide/purchase this expensive stuff, no way. 

Who knows if you will continue with the service and if not, you have equipment that only works with services that have that equipment.  Nope, not me, would not buy, would not sell the owners equipment.  It will come back to "you" and owner may not accept and remedy

Good Luck!

that holiday you refuse to work?  Grocery stores, food joints & seems any store is open on holidays and you expect them to be fully staffed, so why shouldn't we?

Yes, I took off for the first time on Christmas day, in 18 years and it was great, but I worked Christmas eve and this whole past weekend.

Someone has to do it!

Depending on which account but 60 minutes to me is about $100 to $175 for me.    If it would be my surgeons would be over $200.  Sure they did not mean for 60 minutes of transcribing -- $40 per hour?  Even dividing by minute that is less than $1 per minute.  Way too low.
