My tivo did not record it.  Can anyone do a recap for me?

Who will be watching the show finale tonight?  I would watch the show with my daughters when they were in grammer school now they have better stuff to do and I still watch it.   Was a great show.  

Denny died after his transplant,  embolism.  Alec was very kind and nice to Izzie afterward.  Meredith and Derek had some steamy intimate moments at the end.   Finn seems very taken with Meredith but it will probably do him no good.   The prom part seemed rather far fetched.    Burke and Christina were hand in  hand near the end of show. His surgical ability will probably return, after all what would Grey's be without him??    George and the lady orthopod are becoming closer.   Next season should be interesting indeed.  This show is my very favorite series, also like ER but Grey's is better.  

being a roadside idiot holding a stopandgo sign.

that is the bottomline.

I have many years of experience of transcription.

If you don't see the writing on the wall of where MTing is going - well, whoa be it for me

to explain it to you.

I'm just bowled over by the fact that after this many years

my experience is worth less than if I had never learned

how to type, learned English grammar, learned to type 100 cwpm, struggled my way through computer education on my own,

learned medical terms, drug names and values, learned foreign

dialects, learned many specialties .......that here 30 years later I

can hold a sign and make the same money.

But you stay in the field if you feel like you will come out ahead.

Since they have turned the career into a profit making machine for

a bunch of suits - the respectability of it and the career side of it

seems to me has flown out the window and the MT has become nothing

more than a part of that apparatus that can be replaced at their whim, and rather

cheaply -

The OP never said that her supervisor asked MTs to work extra.  If your supervisor asks you to work extra and you do, and there is no work for the other MTs during their schedule...then this is a different story.  This would then be considered a problem with management because they are allowing others to work extra and grab another MTs lines.  If MTs are not being asked to work extra and they are anyway, then this is a problem with greedy MTs not working their schedule.  There is a big difference between the two. 

The bottom line is:  The problem starts with MTs not working their schedule.  If management does not follow through and take care of the problem, then it becomes a problem with management.

paint your house a funky color. I'm thinking I missed a huge sale at Home Depot on paint because my neighbors are going crazy with the colors. Yes, I understand home depot and Lowe's screws up paint and you can get the mixed up colors very cheap but geez. My neighborhood is going crazy with weird paint colors on their houses. Two months ago someone painted their house bright green with bright pink trim, then came the peach house with green trim, bright yellow house followed by bright blue house with the leftover yellow trim. New house being built across the street is all burnt orange including the fence. They even painted the driveway burnt orange and not UT vols orange. Now my neighbor is painting hers bright green. It's not a bad neighborhood here in Central Florida and the houses here run from 150s to 300s but these colors are horrendous. I think if I put my house up for sale I won't get an offer because the peach house, green and pink house, and orange house are all on the dead end street I'm on.

dont know what you are talking about but

GOSH

IS IT NICE to hear some good news from someone that something is working out for them!!  Wow!   

Gonna get it ordered today because I have 1 podiatrist who is kicking my butt.

Thanks again!

Obviously if someone is socializing or otherwise not working, no they shouldn't be compensated.  I've been in that situation too. People like that are what drove us to a production-based industry.  I've also worked in-house in places where the newbies refused to do the ESLs and the difficult reports so they never learned. 

There are lot of us that do work and work hard that have 20-30 years of knowledge and expertise and are not compensated for it.  Sorry don't think its right for a newbie to make the same amount as someone with 20-30 years experience.  You'll say. "There are some with experience that don't know what I know."  I don't believe a newbie knows what an MT of 30 years' experience knows no matter what.  It just doesn't make sense.  You can't cram 30 years into 1-2 years. 

There probably are some imcompetent experienced MTs out there just as there are imcompetent MTs period, but don't lump us oldies altogether.  Of course, nobody knows it all.  When it comes to quality versus production, quality is most important.  IMHO.
