I hear you there! Heaven forbid if you should ask a question.

I work at a company with a lot of ESL/bad dictators. When I flag something, I never get a response, so I have the same darn flag. I feel like I am risking my job when I attempt to do the really hard dictators. If they would just answer my flag (it is always in the same place), I would not have any problems.

Oh, God forbid we get an extra two keystrokes
pretty obvious what side of the fence they're on
Oh, God forbid anyone talk like *gasp* management!
We want to be jealous, resentful, angry, bitter and blame others for our shortcomings!
Oh, a thousand pardons! What came over me!
Some people seem to actually thrive on failure and enjoy complaining. Have fun!
LOL
7th Heaven
I am really going to miss it too! I love 7th Heaven!
7th Heaven
Hard to find good shows the whole family can watch. We will miss it.
I would be in heaven
Lordy, I would be so thrilled if I could make 200 lines an hour!
Oh, for Heaven's sake -

Why in heaven do you even have to "ask" him? - sm
This is a tool of your trade. If your husband were a carpenter and needed a saw, would he ask you? I can assure you he wouldnt. He would just run out and get one. Just go get one for goodness sake.
Kevin is heaven?
If kevin is heaven then.....aw nevermind...lol
good voice but do we really want a nerd to represent America???
I'd rather just pay the money and go to heaven.

Do you work in heaven?
Man, I'd love a job at home with full benefits. Not many of those around here (Los Angeles), if any at all. If the company I
previously worked for at home had those, I never would have gone back to the word-factory of in-house transcription! Consider yourself very blessed!
For heaven's sake! It's not THAT bad!
You can go to CareerStep, one of the "top 3" schools for about $1,600, and if you work at it you should be able to finish it in 9-12 months. As for purchasing equipment, you'll get a foot pedal with your course and Express Scribe (the software you'll use to actually transcribe) is free. You will have to buy a few reference books and some fairly cheap software--that all shouldn't run you more than $400-$500, tops. I'm assuming you already have a computer, or else how could you have posted this note?
Now, there are jobs being taken over by software and being outsourced to other countries. And there ARE doctors who dictate TERRIBLY. But there are still some decent jobs out there and decent doctors as well. If you work at it and sell yourself well, you should do okay. Good luck!
well for heaven sakes, huh FUN FUN FUN
I need to watch now, getting a bit weary of so many this-and-that contest though. Awaiting return of Dancing with the Stars though. Loved it last time, so fun fun fun. I've seen Alicia Keys on Leno, brought back two in quick time, she played piano and say. She is good and so young, so many of them are so young and really have talent too not just a lot of loud hoopla of this-and-that.
How exciting for you both.
For Heaven's sake... don't do what I did!
I accepted a position with another company, turned in my resignation when I received the acceptance letter from the other company. Friday will be my last day on the job, and I have not heard from the other company as to downloading software on computer and my first day is supposed to be Monday. My employer has already hired someone in my place, so I can't ask for my old job back. The past several days I've sent out about 5 or so resume's to various companies.
And for heaven's sake....
don't dictate in the bathroom. That's waaaaaay more than we want to hear!
For heaven's sake, where is your lawyer?
Your divorce is final in 2 weeks, and you're asking this super important question to MTs on a message board? PLEASE ask your lawyer.
heaven should be closed to most IRS agents
As soon as possible, talk to an attorney who specializes in this. Ask them if you can file Chapter 13 bankruptcy. In many cases, you can ultimately pay up to 10% of a past owed date.
While this is being haggled in the courts, you can send money, or not. You will have the protection of the federal government, who will handle another branch of the federal government.
Just never miss a single payment to the courts.
At-home MT about 10 years ago...it was heaven...
I had no complaints about MT-ing really...worked from home, made lots of money with no worries or pressure, worked the hours I pretty much wanted so I could enjoy my 'real' life, it was the best job I ever had ~
I quite miss it
Oh for heaven's sake...if she knew how to...
do that, she wouldn't have a question! Anyway, what platform do you use? Most of the time you will find a folder in the "My Documents" folder or in the hard drive (go to "My Computer" and click on your hard drive--usually C:) by the same name as your platform. Inside that folder will be your templates. When you get there, you can press Ctrl and F together. A screen will come up asking what you want to search for. Click "All files and folders". Where it says "All of part of the file name:" put "*.dot" (without the quotes). This will find all of the templates within that folder. Hope this helps.
it is heaven and paradise all rolled into one-I hope you get to go soon.
Kauai and Molokai are my personal favorites because they are the least developed (that people can visit)
Oh, for Heaven's sake - if you don't like it just don't reply. Grow up.

There's a special place in heaven for people like you...
You, my fellow MT, are a diamond in the coal that is humanity.
Blessed Be!
"May his soul rest in heaven."
This was the last line of a death summary I just transcribed.
That's a new one on me....
Wow ... 14.5 cpl ... that's great! I'd be in "typer" heaven (reference to my post sm
on the main board - ha).
Congrats :)
Brain dead today - or is it hear hear? I'm going to bed.

Marry me?! :) Seriously...hear, hear. Good post. - nm

I believe in something.... Jesus. I'm saved and going straight to heaven. No such thing as limbo.
Agreed. I always found them to be a match made in trailer heaven
Hawaii, the place where Dr. Green died on ER. It looked like heaven there. nm

I've had a sniffler - blow your nose for heaven's sake!
My rant re: "a match made in trailer heaven - two skanks in a crud"
Let me FIRST say that I do not usually rant, I am not a ranter, if something bugs me I take a deep breath, look at the offending item in the grand scheme of my life and realize that most of the time it isn't that big a deal. However, these condescending trailer park references that I run into are a bunch of crap!
How can you make a derogetory referrence regarding people who live in trailers? If it had something to do with race or sex you have been flamed by the whole board. I am sick and tired of generalizations directed basically towards me! I live in a trailer in a trailer park and I MOST CERTAINLY am not a skank. I have heard it all, white trash, trailer trash, skank, etc. when people talk about parks. My town even named it a "Manufactured House Community" and hid it where you can't see it! I am here because I can afford it here. The average price for a house in my town in Maine is $250,000 ++. While we do just fine, I cannot afford that on my MT salary (been MT for 6 years) even though my husband works his butt off at 3 jobs. Oh sure, we could probably get a loan for a $300,000 house but I refuse to get in over my head in debt just to convince people like YOU I am in your league! I also LIKE it here. My neighbors are the best I have had. All of our homes (trailers) are well maintained, the lawns are spotless, and there is not a single car up on blocks that I can see anywhere!! Don't even bother to tell me that is not the norm for parks because there are 300+ trailers in this park and they are all just as well taken care of!
Another thing that irritates me is the word "skank". I have never understood why women have to tear each other down using trashy descriptions like that. Of course I am sure there are those out there who DESERVE the title but most of the time women seem to judge based on the look of the offending party.
You may think your comment was tiny and I am blowing it out of proportion, but I am not! It is comments like that that makes people like my neighbors ashamed to even tell people where they live.
I have said my piece and I await the flaming. When you drive through my park (yah right) and see me standing on the nice, green lawn in front of my pretty trailer with my 7-year-old in the yard, my toddler on my hip, looking very pregnant in my cutoffs and tank tops, you can THINK "skank" all you want. I KNOW that I am a strong, educated, well-employed woman with a nice little family who refuses to put all our happiness and our hard-earned savings on the line to prove that I am EQUAL to people like you!
i'd call that brownie points for heaven LMAO...and a waste of time!
;)
Hear, hear! I agree with Dakota - sm
The MTSO should be giving feedback to the hospital/doctors who slur, speak too rapidly, etc. They need to pull up their socks! And there's no reason why these doctors shouldn't be given an outline of what is expected from them when they dictate, such as cell phones, chewing food, candy, gum, etc.
i hear you
That sounds like my husband. If he gets "stuck" with the kids the my job interferes with the family life, but when there are too many bills to pay, I spend too much money. I can never win.
I am so sorry to hear about your dog. SM
I know how sad it is to lose a beloved pet. I have lost many over my lifetime and they all stay in my memory. My condolences to you.
i hear it also....
i'm divorced and get told 'how will you ever meet someone if you don't leave the house'.
i also get neighbors asking me to watch for deliveries, let repairmen in, let their dogs out.....just because i'm home they think i'm in front of the tv eating bon bons....when actually i'm posting on this board!! 
I hear you
Good for you! Couldn't be more proud!
I want to hear more about this. Seriously.
..
I hear ya - sm
Hard to be the disciplinarian without the support of the husband or grandparents.
Of course, then when they get older and get into more serious trouble as time goes by, it will be YOUR fault for not disciplining them too.
Same old story around here too.
Stand your ground mom. Tough as it is, I know. You gotta do it.
Did you hear or see this anywhere
else besides on this board?? I haven't heard that - that is very scary. Hope it is just rumor.
I hear what you are saying.
My husband is a school custodian for a K-12 school. My daughter graduated a couple years ago, so I no longer have a kid in school. There were teachers along and along that I did not agree with, but there are always channels to go through. There will always be kids who are picked on. Unfortunately, the parents of the bullies are going to take up for their little angels as well. One of our first graders held a sharpened pencil to the throat of another student, and made threats to the teachers. They tried to get the child removed from the classroom and the local board of education would not cooperate. The teachers walk a fine line. They are expected to protect all the children, but they are not allowed to do very much with little devils like this. We had a coach that the parents tried to run off because he tried to teach some of the 16-17 year-old babies some discipline. I am not talking about slamming them up against the wall. I am just talking about things like making the guys on the team (heaven forbid) tuck their shirt tails in. You would be amazed at the little things that can cause such a stink. I had a teacher tell my daughter she did not agree with my parenting techniques, so it can go both ways. (My daugher was 17) Since my husband works there, I know these teachers. The teacher is a basically good person, we just had a disagreement. I was respectful when I talked to her in front of my daughter, and I expect my daughter to behave in a similar manner. I have noticed that most of the bullies in school have parents that are also bullies. We have resource officers at the school to help pretect the children. Unfortunately, these officers have also been called on to protect the teachers from very real threats from students and parents. While I agree that parents definitely need to know what is going on with their child in school, if some of the parents I know showed up at school every day it would be impossible for the teachers to actually teach classes. These teachers have to teach the whole class, not just your child. There is no way they are going to please all the parents and still do their job. There is also no way on this earth I would be a teacher these days.
Where did you hear this?
Do you have anymore information regarding this? I tried to look up on the IRS website, but couldn't find anything. I think that would be great for everyone to donate 1 vacation day, that would add up to a lot!!
Sorry to hear that you and your...sm
husband aren't getting along!
LOL...I hear that! sm
Used to work for YOG/MQ...glad I got out when I did. Talk about stress...yikes!!!
We need to hear more
About the Teamsters in LA who said they would take us on. Back last week I believe the question was asked about unions and a reply came back that LA Teamsters were interested in us, but no more details were given. Maybe that should be Monday's job, track them down in LA and see what's up.
Where did you hear that it
doesn't start until January?
I hear ya...
...all the songs you mentioned..."Something", too. Don't get me started either...LOL
In my 10th grade English class we had to pick a poem to read in front of the class...I read the lyrics from "Lucy"...a few people were looking at me like I was crazy & I just thought "Oh well, you just don't get it."
Yep, we sure could use his humor these days, that's for sure!!
At least, if what I believe is true, he's in a much better place...I can just see him looking down & shaking his head. Just imagine what kind of songs he'd be writing now!
Oh, where's a peace sign emoticon when you need one...LOL 
I hear ya!
Yeah, except we don't get $50,000 after eating the slime and rotten fish.
I hear ya
Crap, crap and more crap being left. Don't these little cherrypickers know how to do HARD LONG REPORTS???
I hear ya!
Just two months ago, I started to IC for a large cardiology group. The in-house wanted a day off during the week, so I was going to fill in for her at home. Let me tell you, she was a nut and faxed me corrections for the weirdest stuff. Needless to say, I quit that place after two days of filling in! There is always work out there and I found a much better office where I am averaging around $200.00 per tape!
Best of luck to you!
I hear ya.........
I'm in the same position. Left a great IC position (small company) for employee status but I can't seem to find what I had before with the big guys. They all seem to lie and treat their MTs like slaves. Wish I could go back to the old position but I need to work as an employee for many reasons. Suks, huh?
I hear ya.
Next time invite them over for coffe and let them listen to a few ESL dictators!!!! HA. See how fast they run out the door........ LOL
