Ditto. I hope you others realize that most Americans are NOT this way. nm

Gee, I dunno. Maybe since you find Americans fat and arrogant is a start
so we're stuck with your nasty ol' hair-ball self
FWIW, nasty is in the eye of the beholder and you have given nasty as good as you got.
Read your posts again very carefully.
PS..arrogant to say the least
Arrogant?? Not at all. sm
How does giving an honest response to a direct question regarding income equate arrogance?
I'm amazed each and everytime I read some of these posts that people can be so hateful, bitter, catty, and jealous.
I hate transcription and am totally burned out. I do just enough to get by. If another MT is typing their fingers off and making a comfortable living, I say "Good for them!" How can you begrudge someone who works hard for being successful?? Would it have made you feel better about yourself if she had posted that she is struggling to make ends meet and can't feed her family? Good grief people.
You talk about QA being arrogant, BUT
You post all the time and it is very visible how much you are actually arrogant. You have such a terrible attitude and nasty mouth. Even as the abbreviation you used it is uncalled for. Your opinion is NOT the only one that matters. You are one person i would just LOVE to meet in person. I would be the first to put you in your place right then and there!
I know that. You're the arrogant one here.
Why would I want to be a doctor anyways? I have my reasons for being in MT. Direct patient contact and long hours don't fit into the life plan. Nobody here has to explain themselves to you. The truth is that nobody even likes you because you're such a nasty, mean person. That's why you're here verbally abusing strangers on the Internet. Have you kicked any dogs lately?
Too arrogant for me and I think he prefers men. nm
I agree. You are arrogant.

I have no issues at all. I'm just saying that the OP is being condescending and arrogant.
And if there are any issues going on, they seem to be coming from a person who needs to analyze any posts in diagreement with their opinion as if that disagreeing poster must be crazy and that simply isn't the case.
No I don't think doctors are arrogant and inconsiderate as a whole.
Because they don't dictate the way we like isn't a personal thing against us. Some have skills with dictation that others don't. Like public speaking, some can, some can't. Doctors do have lives and problems and patients outside of trying to dictate patient records.
It's how incredibly arrogant this administration is!
How can you trust anything that comes from anyone in this adminstration's mouth? Starting at the very top!! I can NOT wait until his dictatorship is over. I am really praying that the Democrats get back in office. I can not stand the Bush administration's air of superiority. I don't appreciate being made to look foolish on the world stage. Bush and his cronies are an embarrassment to this country. I can not wait until their regime ends!!
No, I was agreeing that Mary's arrogant.
;)
Not nearly as arrogant and inconsiderate and downright exploitative as most MT companies n/m
nm
I personally don't. I think she's arrogant, pompous, and in general, a big mouth who's ful
Aren't you sorry you asked? (LOL!)
you sound arrogant to me. "unfortunate family members?"
like they can't take care of themselves without your noble gifts. Maybe you should be reading some books on codependence.
Please explain what was snippy, rude, arrogant, or insulting in her post.
Sorry, but that's the attitude YOU put forward. You're the one ranting about not being able to find quality MTs. You use the same nickname and the same style as someone who posted the same topic a few days ago. I think you knew that would incite a riot. Maybe the MTs should start an MTSO bashing post and explain the real reason some MTSOs can't find decent MTs. You reap what you sow. If you're only offering newbie rates, you're only going to get newbie applicants. Maybe it's YOU that is the reason you can't find quality MTs.
Do you think doctors are generally arrogant and make a lot of money and so inconsiderate of us?
I had been listening to several breast onco dictations by the same female dictator who kept on yawning that it was so annoying...made me want to post a complaint to a forum of mother MDs (though I was not quite sure where I would post it) which I previously run into...
I then saw under the General Discussion board this thread:
http://www.mommd.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php/ubb/get_topic/f/1/t/000236/p/1
That made me feel like reaching out to the sleepy doctor who was probably not being paid for that time she takes to dictate about her patients (she apparently let them pile up before dictating) and just let her head rest on my lap (I am a female). Maybe she did not have enough sleep, or not even enough time to enjoy her family...
Excuse me? Arrogant for buying a house for a family member that was sm
about to become homeless? I think not. You sound like my ungrateful, jealous sister in law who can't stand anyone else to succeed. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. They were unfortunate at the time and we bailed them out! Ask them, they will tell you where they would be had my husband and I not put our credit on the line for them.
As Americans....
All I see us doing is "convicting" Natalee and her mother. I just want to know why some come to the defense of the ones that are thought may be guilty and the ones that are actually being held, yet at the same time are so ready to tear apart the victim and her family. I mean come on, let's complain about the mom's make up for crying out loud, or the fact that she is distraught and saying things that aren't right. PLEASE PEOPLE. Get real.
Believe me, when we Americans are
fed up with anything something will be done!! What do you think the original American Revolution was about??? I know, I know....so many Americans have become just "sit on your butts watching TV and let someone else handle it" idiot! But I do have faith in plain ole common horse sense. This is our country and we must do and shall do what is necessary to keep it that way. People will rise up when the situation gets bad enough and quite honestly, I think we are almost there, don't you?
spy on all Americans....did you not...sm
Did you NOT see all the newswires on this very subject about the govt spying via Google's new desktop? Read and then go to Google and read some more!!

Google Copies Your Hard Drive - Government Smiles in Anticipation
Consumers Should Not Use New Google Desktop
San Francisco - Google today announced a new "feature" of its Google Desktop software that greatly increases the risk to consumer privacy. If a consumer chooses to use it, the new "Search Across Computers" feature will store copies of the user's Word documents, PDFs, spreadsheets and other text-based documents on Google's own servers, to enable searching from any one of the user's computers. EFF urges consumers not to use this feature, because it will make their personal data more vulnerable to subpoenas from the government and possibly private litigants, while providing a convenient one-stop-shop for hackers who've obtained a user's Google password.
"Coming on the heels of serious consumer concern about government snooping into Google's search logs, it's shocking that Google expects its users to now trust it with the contents of their personal computers," said EFF Staff Attorney Kevin Bankston. "If you use the Search Across Computers feature and don't configure Google Desktop very carefully—and most people won't—Google will have copies of your tax returns, love letters, business records, financial and medical files, and whatever other text-based documents the Desktop software can index. The government could then demand these personal files with only a subpoena rather than the search warrant it would need to seize the same things from your home or business, and in many cases you wouldn't even be notified in time to challenge it. Other litigants—your spouse, your business partners or rivals, whoever—could also try to cut out the middleman (you) and subpoena Google for your files."
The privacy problem arises because the Electronic Communication Privacy Act of 1986, or ECPA, gives only limited privacy protection to emails and other files that are stored with online service providers—much less privacy than the legal protections for the same information when it's on your computer at home. And even that lower level of legal protection could disappear if Google uses your data for marketing purposes. Google says it is not yet scanning the files it copies from your hard drive in order to serve targeted advertising, but it hasn't ruled out the possibility, and Google's current privacy policy appears to allow it.
"This Google product highlights a key privacy problem in the digital age," said Cindy Cohn, EFF's Legal Director. "Many Internet innovations involve storing personal files on a service provider's computer, but under outdated laws, consumers who want to use these new technologies have to surrender their privacy rights. If Google wants consumers to trust it to store copies of personal computer files, emails, search histories and chat logs, and still 'not be evil,' it should stand with EFF and demand that Congress update the privacy laws to better reflect life in the wired world."

You all must be the Americans sm
Do you have any idea how it feels to natives of other countries who speak a different language, when Americans go there and insist that everyone speak English with them? Not even the courtesy of being able to say please or thank you in any language other than English. It is rude. It is selfish and it is no wonder that much of world holds this opinion of Americans...rude, selfish, bigoted and mean!
Not only that, I have been around these boards long enough to notice that MOST OF YOU aren't very articulate. I watch many of those acting as "grammar police" are no better. So many of you cannot spell and will not learn (or even use the spellchecker). Overall, many if not most of your have a rather tenuous grasp of the English language. It is sad to remember that you all are MTs.
please don't condemn ALL americans...sm
PLEASE do NOT condemn ALL Americans for what the Ignorant Americans do......most Americans are NOT this ignorant and would never do something like some of these people *owned* up to doing.....
HE is disrespectful of ALL Americans
She is completely right. She has a right to her opinion and she is free to express it on this board. This man has disgraced us on the world stage and is not deserving of respect in my opinion. He certainly did not respect the 3500+ soldiers that died fighting a trumped up war. He does not respect the American people when he disdains public opinion and pushes his own agenda. This is a free board and as far as I know nobody's children have any desire to read anything on this board.
Most difficult: Americans!
I absolutely cannot get the American accents in which the doc sounds like he/she is running an auction. At least with the ESLs I can get into the rhythm. Not with these guys. Although once I figure out what a grunt or a cough means I make a normal LOL.
I had some decent Americans,
some decent nurses, and then started getting probably the worst dictator on my account. Is 15 blanks a problem? :o}
It is because she HAS a job, which many Americans would love to have right now.
She is going to quit her job to get the assistance. She is not in need of it as she thinks she is. When people abuse the system, it runs funds down and then the people that truly need the help don't get assistance. If she in fact had lost her job, I would feel differently, but she has a paying job. Why can't she use the money she earns to pay for insurance? If what the posters below are saying is true, this is not a surprise pregnancy, but planned. Shouldn't they have included in their plan to have a baby a way to pay for it? I would love to have another kid, but I would never dream to do it on taxpayer money. Why should someone else have to pay? That is what I wrong with America. Too many feel so entitled to live the life they want yet don't want to work for it.
Opinion of Millions of Americans
Hate to tell you, Bush lover, this is the opinion of millions of Americans..Shrub is a failure, a jerk, an idiot, a warmonger. This country has not been this divided and torn apart since the Vietnam war. Bush was a uniter and compassionate conservative, yeah, right..The guy is a lying murderer and he alienates the world and half of American from him and his followers, who follow blindly, even though we have proof he lied about this illegal war, his advisor, Rove, outed a CIA operative and so much more..The guy is terrible and thank GOD he will be gone in three years.
Americans don't want to work...that is just hogwash.
not that Americans dont want to work, we just
What we deserve, but paid what it actually costs to LIVE in America, to afford the insanely high medical care, insanely high gas, insanely high food, etc. We can never work for less than what we get because we'd then have to move to a different country where we can afford their cost of living. Its all backwards. Thats why CEOs are all slime...they're sitting pretty up there and do not care what goes on because they're comfortable and well taken care of.
What's really sick is when Americans can't understand
plain and simple sarcasm
I tell them they are taking jobs from Americans and...
I do not do business with anyone not in the U.S.A.. I try to say it very nicely, though. I totally resent having my financial records (let alone medical records) in the hands of other countries!
If everyone would refuse to deal with them, U.S. companies would be forced to bring the work back home.
oh yeah, like white americans and others...sm
another one who needs their head examined - blaming all the crime in America on illegal aliens.....you're very sick......
Just look at the predators going after kids - NOT ONE IS EVER FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY - only white trailer park trash oh and priests.......pedophiliacs......
Gang rapes - usually done by white men.......
drugs were around way before the illegal aliens - street gangs were around before illegal aliens (think MAFIA and then Bloods and Crips)........
Geesh - you need to just quit posting is all....ill-educated as far as the street goes, eh?
look in the mirror before you falsly accuse Immigrants!!
Trailer park trash has been on the welfare rolls for 4 decades in this country!! They keep having more babies thinking they can stay on forever. Good thing the welfare laws are changing!!
regarding post below - How not to hire Americans
I sent an e-mail to Hillary Clinton's website with the article and video - visit and leave your comments - democrat or republican - I just want an American to work on this very important topic. Low or middle class - to strengthen it we need our jobs - not to mention the security of our personal information by not off shoring.
http://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/middleclass/
Now I am off to visit other politicians websites.
Many newbies and even oldies and VR - Americans only.

If it weren't for us Americans, he wouldn't be the star
Huh? Your logic is amusing. She deserves Americans looking for her?
That's just not how its done, as the poster below for eloquently explains!
We have to stand firm for the Americans of the future here!
When the trade agreement was signed with China, the imbalance of imports and exports was not suspected to occur since they have like a trillion residents. Did not happen as they had anticipated.
Think again of the cheap merchandise coming our way. It turns into garbage within two years most often since it isn't built to pass the test of time (unlike higher priced American and German products). So, the tons of imports turn into tons of landfill. Pollution is what is basically ends up being.
And yes, I do believe China will not stop until it is in a position to control the world economy.
I waited for coverage of the currency in China which they took off the world market. This will cause, or should cause, Wal-Mart prices to go up and allow other stores to continue competing (and providing jobs within this country) in the American market.
This is appalling.
I hope this applies to companies like Medquist. I hope there
isn't a way they can get around it. I REALLY hope.
Bullfeathers. Americans work the longest hours.
We average 1960+ hours worked per year. Google "Americans work the longest hours". Nobody else can touch us. Provide us with a link proving your theory that Americans don't want to work. Young people want to work as well. Every young person I know of is working on top of going to school fulltime. Maybe it's just the people you know who don't want to work, because I can tell you that everyone in my family has a good work ethic. Google "American youth don't want to work". Oopsy, no hits. Guess that blows your theory.
I will only agree with outsourcing and off-shoring when Americans have carte
are going to. Like, the companies that enjoy the protection and luxuries of operating out of the United States -- when those companies work deals with the COUNTRIES they are allowed to send our jobs to SO THAT WE CAN VISIT, MOVE TO, EXPLORE, SHOP IN........when we can go to those very same countries without question, passport, or visa, then I will say I will not fight off-shoring and outsourcing.
But the way it is now......basically we are being held PRISONERS IN OUR OWN COUNTRY while our JOBS ARE GOING OUT THE DOOR.
Americans should be so lucky as to be paid what some Canadian transcriptionists are.
Job security, union jobs, full benefits, 1 year of maternity leave, parental leave, vacation time, sick time, $18 or more an hour...
Glen Beck right now: How not to hire Americans video!!!
NM
Maybe she should have stayed in America where Americans look for drunken teens everyday.
If you go to a foreign country, you are under their laws and their policing. If you don't like it, DON'T TRAVEL OUT OF THE COUNTRY! In the meantime, TEXAS TEAM IS SEARCHING IN ARUBA WITH PERMISSION AND ARE VERY HAPPY WITH COOPERATION FROM ARUBAN GOVERNMENT!
Iranian, Cuban,England,Faster than lightening Americans sm
They're all self-explanatory. The English (from England) speak this way. "This young chap was involved in a fisticuff a fortnight ago full stop." You can't really change too much, but what it means is this young man was involved in a fight (or altercation) two weeks ago (period). Jeez! Full stop means period, it gets on your nerves after two pages of it! Type it like he dictates it and add the period after every "full stop." Period.
after being nasty, now you want to
know which office? I think not, to tell YOU.
Nasty, not me!!!

It got nasty
Those posts got pretty nasty between a few people. I have strong convictions about a lot of things but I would not have come across as some do on this board. I often feel that when someone comes across like that it usually means that there has been a problem in that area -- he who does protest too much. But we all do have a right to our own opinions and I try to look at everyone's. I understand where having a glass of wine is not someone's cup of tea but because I do (and maybe not every one can keep it in moderation) does not mean I am unprofessional, irresponsible or not capable of doing my job. Would be glad to match years of experience, paychecks and longevity of accounts with any of you that called me unprofessional, irresponsible and uncapable of doing my job. Patti
who got nasty?
I certainly didn't, and nobody got nasty with me. In fact, it was one of the better heated discussions I've seen or been involved in. And I've been in the middle of some lulus!!! (but not here)
You want sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows ... turn on Lesley Gore. 
Don't let someone with a nasty
attitude ruin your self-esteem about what you have done with your life. Just consider the source. They sound bitter to me and try to make it everyone else's fault. Keep up your good work and ignore what someone who does not matter has to say. Just be thankful you do not work for her.
