I forgot the most important thing. SM
Even with a child proof home, 3 kiddies under 5 can still get in plenty of mischief when you take your eyes off them for even a second. Your eyes have to be off them more than a few seconds if you're trying to do a job. HIRE SOMEONE TO HELP YOU, PUT THEM IN DAYCARE OR WORK AT NIGHT WHEN THEY'RE SLEEPING.....PLEASE!
Oh! I forgot maybe the most important point
If you are seriously considering a move there, you should know that for your training you MUST go to the office for two days, initially at your own expense. if you stay more than 6 months, you'll get reimbursed.
forgot an important one surgical911.com
google anything or webmd anything your bound to come up with links... good luck
Forgot one other important piece of information - sm
Tater's mother and grandmother both have a very long history of mental illness and the grandmother has been institutionalized several times. The mother has lied and continues to lie about fabricated life-threatening illnesses and other fantastic situations that no one person could EVER deal with in their lives.
you forgot to mention the most important part...all of those would have said ..go to the ER
Thank you for the tidbit, I will
:-)
another bayscribe tidbit
i thought before when i was in the cc-to or comments box, i had to F7 back to a previous field (or mouse it), but hitting Alt-F8 takes one back to the top of the main text box!
Truck driving
My friend and her husband drove as a "team" before he passed away. She said it isn't as easy as it looks-- especially if you are a woman. She said she had to back the trailers into the loading docks and all the "macho men" would just stand there and stare at her-- apparently they are too "manly" to have their jobs taken by women. Anyway, she said the driving part was fun, but the company monitors you every second via some kind of tracking device and it isn't like I thought-- that you could stop in various parts of the country, etc. There is a lot of technical stuff you have to know about the truck, maintenance, etc., as well. She said she wouldn't do it again.
truck type
Don't have direct experience but my husband trucks and am familiar with the concepts. This is an intriguing scenario so hope you don't mind if I speculate a bit.
A few questions for you. By partnership, do you mean you intend to drive, as in split equal driving hours with him? What kinds of distances are involved...state/regional or interstate? You talking lap top type on internet based platform or what (i.e., method of report transmission)?
Certainly, RV is not the same as OTR. I think your main issue would be internet access while in motion. You want to type PT or drive PT or what?
The ice cream truck
The Mister Softee ice cream truck came every evening. You could hear his bell dinging wayyyy before he got to our street. On special occasions (i.e., daddy's payday) we were allowed to go a sundae or milkshake or rootbeer float. I read in the paper just the other day that the man who started Mister Softee recently died.
We saw an ice cream truck the other day (sm)
and my daughter was so excited. But I told her I doubt it if it would come up where we live because there is too much of a spread between houses. We saw it going through a housing development. Which makes sense, but was a disappointment for my daughter (and me!!!!). I remember playing outside and hearing the music way in the distance. I would run to get dimes from my Mom or Dad. That is a VERY pleasant memory. Thanks to OP for starting this topic. 
We have an ice cream truck come through
our neighborhood every day. They have all the good stuff from the good ol' days!
Did you just fall off the turnip truck?
Of course it's a scam. Grow up.
Leased a truck for four years. At the
end of that time, purchased the truck because we had put so many miles on it, and they financed for another FIVE years to keep the payments about the same. Won't try that again!!!!!!!!!!!!
I call it Mack Truck Flu.
Feels like you've been run over with a Mack truck! Glad U are feeling almost within normal limits.
good job! watch out for the truck
being in your name because whatever he does will come back on you so if he crashes and hurts someone, they can come after you. my x took all the keys so I had another set made and they didn't work so I reported it stolen and let the cops get it from him. (the car was only in my name) plus it adds to your paper trail that you're going to need to keep yourself protected.
don't you feel better all ready! 
Sorry but truck driving is going south also
Also had hubby as truck driver, as well as done team driving --the rates there are going down as many are coming over the borders and able to drive for less. So that profession has dropped 50% as well or at least held its own over the past ten years which is not a progression at all. Even owner-operators are seeing a decline. So it is hitting everywhere.
Back the turnip truck up!
You are working full-time with demands of 1,200 lines a day and only making $16,000.00 a year. You'd better find another job. What part of the Earth do you live? My goodness, clerks make more than that. You may want to try becoming a file clerk as you'd probably make more and it certainly would be less stressful! Take care!
My husband used to drive a truck and
back in 1970s, he made $1 a mile and above. He got out when the rates went down, when the government starting forcing truckers to drive only so many miles a day, and when the companies wanted you to drive over and above the so-called allowable mileage and if you got caught, YOU paid, not the company. Then there was the cross-country in 3 days deal....then, 'Hm-m-m, he could do it in 3 days, let's push a little harder to see if he can cut his time down more." 
Bet you're hubby never makes $1 a mile or above now, especially with the high fuel costs and maintenance of the truck unless he is Haz-Mat or in a specialized field.
Oh, BTW, they are bringing back the railroads because "it's too expensive to truck the goods anymore." It's the old "dange" if you do, and "dange" if you don't type of deal.
Oh, wait! Could this be just like transcription?
Yeah, must have fallen off the turnip truck.
After paying on my truck and house for a year I can
refinance and get an interest rate that is close to someone who has never filed bankruptcy before. So, the high interest rate won't be there forever and at least I will have assets rather than renting or not having a car at all. So, bankruptcy in my case was the best option.
I'd think it would be long-haul truck driver or
long haul truck driver, depending on account specs and whether or not they use hyphens.
Congrats and while you are at it, report your truck stolen by him.

The Good Humor ice cream truck! They still
sell some of the products in the store, but it is nowhere near as good. The vanilla ice cream bars covered with toasted almonds! The half and half popsicles with flavors like rasberry and lime that were SO fruity! The Good Humor man in his white outfit! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! It was great! 
good luck to you!! Do something about that truck..you are responsible for any damages unless you
it taken without permission (different than stolen).
Camaros..three 1994, 1998, and 1999 and a truck,
Chevy truck 2005
My hubby drives a long distance truck
thank goodness! He says the trucking business in dire need of truckers. Bet we don’t see folks punching those in.
It's a bus, not a truck load of nuclear waste. It's a blue collar job,
s
Used to own a Suburban, loved that truck. Have ridden in Ford trucks and SUVs
The Helms Bakery Truck! It sold candy & Pixie-Sticks, too! Yumm! (n/m)
:)
Whoops...I forgot - cranberry sauce, too. My husband would kill me if I forgot the cranberry sauce!
oh, sorry, yes that is important sm
the pay is average for a national. I make $900/week. I think that's pretty darn good! 
How important is it to you ...
How important is it to you that your US medical records are KEPT in the USA?
Does it matter to you? Why or why not?
It's VERY important to me. I don't want anyone in the US much less
outside of the US knowing my business, financial, medical, or otherwise. If I can't sue someone who has used my information for their personal gain then that is a problem for me. It would cost me a fortune to sue someone overseas who say sold my information or threatened to put it on the Internet.
How important is it
Very important. I am HIV and do not want that information going anywhere.
but TAT is what is important and OP...sm
stated that they were having a TAT problem prior - so? TAT is promised, not met, and so the OP didn't meet her/his end of the bargain. I promise 24-48 hour TAT and that's what they have been getting from me for nearly 10 years. 
A deal is a deal is a deal - whether on paper or not on paper - verbal contracts are also recognized - just ask Judge Judy *lol*
To the OP - I hope things go better for you truly - but remember this: A promise made is a debt unpaid....that also is in regards to TAT. Best of luck - things will turn around for you, I am hopeful.
And this is important. sm
It varies state to state, I am sure. You need to get the house out of your mother's name. Where I live, the house has to come out of their name 2 YEARS before they can get in a decent nursing home. There are a not of variables and when you are running to doctors, doing shopping for 2 people, cleaning, plus working full-time which no one realizes if you are an MT because you are "at home"; you really don't have time to keep all the plates spinning by yourself, with no help, and this issue about my mother's home should have been addressed a long, long time ago.
It's important to ask
questions of a potential employer but sounds like she overdid it.
Have to admit though she certainly doesn't lack confidence!
It is amazing to me how self-important US MTs are ...
You want to point your finger toward offshoring companies using HIPAA as your miserable crutch; however, when it comes to ensuring the legitimacy of who YOU are to handle this sensitive, private, protected information -- well just forget it.
After all, I mean, YOU work at home. And you are a citizen of the US. And no US citizen EVER scammed the public, EVER stole identities, EVER did anything wrong. Talk about self-righteous and self-important. Hahaha
What's wrong? What are you afraid of? Someone might really find out about your lack of control over your own life?
No one has ANY idea what YOU are doing with this information either and if your attitudes and behavior on here were shown to physicians and your own employers (and probably your family and friends), many of you would be out - out of a job, out of respect, out of friends and maybe family, out of most of everything and everyone who has no idea what you are like when you feel your anonymous status is hidden.
I'm entitled to how I feel the same as you are. You might want to get prepared though -- time and the conditions in this world are rooting for my opinion.
With the increasing security risks, insurance costs, etc., in this world -- you might want to get busy cleaning up whatever it is you're hiding because the likelihood of you submitting yourselves to any/all of these things for a job is going up and fast.
Hahaha
If bathing is so important to him
then he could wear some swim trunks in the tub with her. I stated that in my last post also. He would still have the bonding time with her but would be covered so she wouldn't be exposed to that. That was also an idea that was posted by another poster that her brother does I think.
One important point: SM
Spheris insurance is PPO, meaning the insurance is not expensive, however, it does not cover the cost of everything or most things, as does HMO insurance. This is a very important fact. Otherwise, agree with above.
I believe it is important for children too..
That does still does not mean that since you made a mistake in your life that you are not entitled to the same rights as everyone else. Could've, should've, would've. We can point fingers and tell people what they should have done, but the fact is, they have rights like everyone else. Of course you tend to do better financially when you do things in the right order. Life does not always work like you want it to though. I myself got pregnant while on BC with a man I had been with for 4 years. I had my son before I got married. We got married when he was less than a month old. He was our only witness. We have since had another child. I have never been on assistance, but I am lucky enough that we have been able to work out our problems and keep our marriage intact. If I could do it all over again, I would have waited, of course. We have struggled quite a bit by having kids so young. Life just doesn't always work out how you want it to though. I want my daughter to get married first and then have children, as do all mothers. Those are things I will teach her too.
Actually, what the account wants is more important than the BOS.
They sign my paycheck and I will do what they request. Don't care much for the BOS and you need to come off your high horse tell everyone they must be consistent with everything.
Yes, consistency is nice, but if the account wants the numbers spelled out from 1-10 that is what the account is going to get - one, two, three, four, etc. They are the ones putting food on my table.
Thanks for that important bit of advice!
I have been going to try them but I will now wait until my next teeth cleaning next month. I NEVER would have given that a thought before. That would be awful to end up with yellow outlines!
Do you know how it might affect crowns??? I assume it will leave them the same color they are. Mine are a little lighter than my natural teeth.
Although MT accuracy is very important,
I think the source of dosing medication comes mostly from the physician's order sheet. I agree with the other poster that a cascading effect is very possible when later dictation and charting is based on the previous records. Also, there are other safeguards and checks made in terms of operations, and they would not be based simply on the H&P. If a doctor bases any operation on just an H&P I would consider him incompetent. This does not excuse the MT who is not careful in documentation.
Get yourself a system...most important..
With Autocorrect, you have to remember everything! So I had to come up with a system that I would remember them. I use the letter *J* for anything that ends in *tion* or *sion,* the letter *Z* for endings with *ize* or *ization*, *x* for words that start with prefix of *ex*, for capitalizing abbreviations, such as HPI that you want to capitalize in a sentence, would be *xhpi.* I use *U* as in uhpi to bring up History of Physical Illness when needed in a sentence, as *HPI* will come up all caps for headings. I also have a system that I will use the first two letters of two words if I have already used the first letters of two words, such as *cp* for chest pain, *chpr* for chemistry profile. If those first two letters are used for something, I go to the first three letters of the first word and the first two letters of the second word. Also will use maybe the first four or five letters of a word. Also, have phrases, such as *sdnh* for she does not have, *shnos* for she has not seen, and just a lot of those types of things. Saves a lot of time. Also have, of course, what the docs constantly say, their little phrases they use all of the time. However, I do forget I have some of these things in there, and have to keep refreshing myself as with about 5000 abbreviations, it gets wicked!! But it really helps to have a system that helps you to remember what you have in there.
Important - see message
I too use Smartype with 2003 and have the same problem, but I wouldn't give up and found out why. What it is when you have a text box (when you jump around using the F11 key to fill in the box) you have to hit the delete key first before you type. If you type without deleting the box first, it will freeze or lock up.
The same thing happens if you hightlight text and want to type over the text. You have to hit delete first and then type. If you highlight and then type without deleting the text, it will lock up. I have trained myself to use the delete key at these times and rarely does it freeze up now. Every now and then I'll forget or accidently do something that will trigger it to lock, but it is not very often.
You can use it, but you have to train yourself. It is a Word problem I was told. If you have any questions, e-mail me and I will try to help
Important ? re. digital(sm)
I get the heebie jeebies worrying that dictation will be erased/lost in the transfer. Is there any backup which will prevent this happening? Where I live if anything is lost, things fly and tempers flare. Scared to death of this happening. How wonderful that you are sharing, kudos to all of you. We need more of this helping attitude.
The MOST important question is.....
Very important - thanks for your post.
Take care of your kids and be flexible while they are still young. Take the time because they grow so fast. If that means losing a buck here and there, so be it. I for one would not trade getting my son to his ballgame or being able to see my daughter receive an award at school for all of the money in the world. I will carry those memories with me forever. We can work on-site when our children are older and no longer need us so much. What a great feeling! Glad you are making the switch back/welcome once again! We missed you!!!!
Most important I think is spelling
Not the spelling police, but I thought your post was cute! Seasoned???? How about proofing your typing? Just kidding . I'm joking!!!
