for two reasons. Not the electricity, but the fact that if you are always running, you leave yourself more open to someone trying to compromise your computer. the second reason is that even though you may be set to receive updates on antivirus, etc. sometimes those updates need you to reboot in order for them to take effect. in fact, most of them do. If you are always running, your updates are never taking effect. The minor mini-surges at start up do NOT put wear and tear on your computer. they were DESIGNED for shut down and restart. geez. better get new techies!

No. I have AVG set to update and run in the middle of the night. My techies said no reason to shut d
:P
I saw HOWIE last night on a late night episode of Blind Date. too funny.
I'm thinking if they are smart they'll boot Rachel. I think she's really smart and a good player. I don't think Howie is all that smart or able to be a winner. I think this could force Howie to hook up with James to go for the final 2.
SHUT UP!
Get over yourself.
No. I have as much right to tell you to shut up and
get out as you do me!
No. You're just a lesion, a runny icky sore. A little sunshine will dry you right up! That's what you DON'T want -- something to heal up that oozing attitude of yours!
MQ is digging it's way out and if that isn't good enough for you, get out.
It's a real shame MQ cannot get the IP addresses of all the complainers and fire every single one of you without notice. Absolutely, that would be the best action they could ever take!!
shut them down?
do you think reporting them local news agencies that fight for consumers would help shut them down?
It's taco night! (again.....) We had taco pizza last night, southwestern chicken soup before th
Maybe I'll just have a salad.
You are a fool..so shut up
Why do I work two jobs? Do you have the need to know? Because I like to live well and have money in my pocket. Why dont you work two jobs? Because you are the lazy one and most likely no other trans company would hire you except MQ, who it is well known will hire newbies and transcriptionists that other companies would not give their 2 cents to.

kidneys shut down
Changes are that he is not even aware of what is going on and is semi-comatose or full coma. Hopefully, the hospital will keep him comfortable. My father-in-law went so fast that the nursing home couldn't give him enough morphine to keep him comfortable (even though he was basically not awake we could tell he was experiencing discomfort), they legally couldn't dispense enough and it was evening. They were going to call Hospice in the morning but he passed away before that could be done. Hopefully, the hospital will have the ability to keep this man comfortable.
I know, I know, I had one eyeball shut and
One eyeball open and my fingers were sore from typing. Too late to catch, but he won't read it anyway. Just was venting. I would laugh if he would call me and say the same thing. But I know he won't. Thanks anyway. 
She just threw that out there to shut us up, I think
She posts here quite frequently, mostly to whine about her husband, stepson, MIL,and everything else. I don't believe she's really an intentional troll at all, just a complete moron who was trying to dig her way out of the sh*tstorm she started with this gem of a post.
Yes, it is SHUT UP or APOLOGIZE!...nm

so its okay for you to be unappreciated, to just keep mouth shut
I also do my work and then some, but why not a little respect back that I give? I can't believe it doesnt bother you. Look at your tone on this board, you seem like the kind of person who would be bothered by it.
meant mouth SHUT

EXACTLY! Shut up & check out the classifieds.
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
shut up or put up - your choice - you cannot control them, only yourself

ok, I'll keep my mouth shut!! ;) Thanks! nm

Do you shut your puter down overnight?
Just curious how many shut completely down at the end of your work day or overnight? Why or why not?
Your computer gets sluggish if you shut it down? NM

Do you think Company Board should be shut

They've forced many of our ERs to shut down
a regular doctor's office. So the few that are left are full to bursting. Once when I had a medical emergency, the ambulance couldn't take me to the closest ER because they had no room, instead we drove FOREVER to a far-away hospital, and still I had to wait a long time out in the hallway. Right now I would say 80% of the people being treated on the account I type for are Mexican and don't speak English. So the hospital has to pay for full-time, professional translators to accompany these people at office visits. And it's no surprise that a large number of them came here illegally.
Shut the h*** up. I make $75K a year doing this with BIG nationals.
I get full benefits. I'm not gutless in any way and I'm NOT having my "rights" taken away from me.
They're not doing anything to me I don't want them to do.
If that's YOUR situation, then make that STUPID statement about your own idiot self.
I'm doing just fine financially, Granny. I doubt YOU make the money I do. Not many do, they're not willing to sit their butts down and actually WORK for more than a few minutes at a time without running here and complain to all the other 'children' about 'school'.
I don't take s*** off anyone, not individuals and certainly not places I work -- there are too many of them out there to work for and if I don't want to do that, I can work for myself.
I kinda like the fact that I bring home more than THREE times what it takes for me to live, AND have insurance, AND a TSA, AND choose my work schedule.
Gotta shut the door and zone out and get it done
Been there, still go there sometimes. It took me a long time to just focus on the work, because at first I thought, "This is so coooool! I don't have to actually go to work. I think I'll go make brownies and come back to it later." WRONG!
Had to make myself a schedule, as the kids were getting packaged brownies and the dishes were never done. It's tough at the beginning to and when I started a year ago nobody was home. Then school got out and I realized I had forgotten to factor in the summer part, which was a nightmare! "Mama! You're not WORKING, ARE YOU?" Ended up starting at 4:00 a.m. and then working again after everyone was settled in bed.
Now I'm back on schedule. Good luck. 
PS--one more thing and then I'll shut my mouff!
Someone said something about not allowing this poor dog to get the exercise he needs out doors. My dog gets PLENTY of exercise. He is not overweight, and we play with him every single night of the world--he's a big part of our lives. He chases balls and toys and we play probably at least 30 minutes to an hour every night of the world, so a dog (particularly a small one like this) does not have to go outside to get any exercise. Thanks for listening/understanding.
Guess I should have kept my mouth shut, now people are - sm
policing the policing. Too nuts.
Unplug shut down plug in and reboot!

But MTs who 'keep their mouths shut' are part of -sm
the problem. Where I came from, that's the kind of person they wanted - a little mouse who kept her head low, flew under the rader, and just typed, typed, typed. And preferably did not get sick, eat, or go to the bathroom very often! The people who saw problems and/or solutions were a huge THREAT to the managers, who wanted their own managers to think that they knew what they were doing, & 'had everything under control'. And they were scared that the people who spoke up might embolden all the mice. The only way the MT disgrace in this country will ever have a chance of getting better (and maybe our medical records banned from going offshore!) is if MTs speak up LOUDLY, and bring this problem to the attention of the whole country.
I have converted a bedroom to office. Can shut

How 'bout we all shut up and go to work, loool
I'm shocked that they are still in business. Why haven't they been prosecuted and/or shut dow

If an attorney knew his client had cancer, would he keep his mouth shut? SM......
You are a professional. Regardless of the patient's name, you are to keep everything confidential. The only reason I would say for you to give it to someone else is if you can't keep your mouth shut, but having already heard the name, the damage is already done. Don't make a big deal out of it. The first thing you should have learned in MT training was EVERYTHING IS CONFIDENTIAL, PERIOD, so what's the big deal?
I'd type it & keep my mouth shut. If you defer the report to someone else, you are just calling
hmmm...maybe I don't know yet how to post on this board.
I read in the newspaper that an online betting site had to shut down...
because there were many very large bets on Danielle winning. Supposedly people were tipped off that she won.
I agree that she shouldn't win. Go Terry!
I wish I knew enough to help. My daughter had viruses totally shut her computer down
but hers did let me at least reinstall XP. I had a disc lying around from some of my old computers and it worked fine on it. The downside is that obviously when I reinstalled she lost all of her saved files, picture etc..but she had a working computer and that is all she cared about without having to replace the hard drive. I honestly wish I could help but I am not sure there is any way to transfer or recover what is on your computer if it will not even read a CD to burn to or a USB flash drive. Have you checked out the forums at Dell.com. I went to the troubleshooting area and it lead me to a tech support forum where I could enter in the error message and it told me what I could do to fix the problems and it did work. If nothing else, I would try to take it to a computer shop to have them assess it and let you know what is or is not salvageable. Good luck. I feel you pain.
Unfortunately in my area they made it so the utility companies can shut you off no matter how cold

We had that last night.
I was just bored today since I'm not working. I like cooking different foods as a hobby. LOL
yes, I got it last night...sm
sure do wish they'd make up their minds. When I first started on DQS, from Cottage, I got "yelled" at about NOT putting 2 spaces, now I'm used to 2 spaces, and they go and change it again. Oh, well. Guess I'll get read to get "yelled" at again! 
About last night...

This was a great article. I think she hit the naile on the head in her assessment of each one of them.
Tks for posting the link.
Just on TV last night sm
I'm in California and DPSS Department of Social Service did this exact same thing and did not want to shred so out in open to recycle, 93,000 people to be notified. Shameful disregard, no wonder so muc IF theft. The TV station esposed this happening.
AI - CNN Last night
They had something on CNN last night where they had four people talking about Chris being voted off. One of them was an AI contestant from last year and she wasn't pulling any punches which was nice to see. She told it like it is. She didn't side step any questions like some people. She said Katharine should have gotten voted off instead of Chris and she and all the others said that Katharine would win, not because she was the most talented, but because she was the most marketable. One reporter said Chris got voted off because he was creepy! Of course, it was a man.
Get a PT job at night, then if you like it and - sm
they will let you got FT, then go for it. Never quit a job before you have another in the bag.
CSI NY last night... anyone see it?
So, on CSI NY last night, MAC sure did a good job using a shoestring to tie up that agents artery, didnt he? Even if he WAS in the service, I was impressed. Although, he's no Grissim. Speaking of which... CANT WAIT FOR TONIGHT! http://www.cbs.com/primetime/csi/ if you click here: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/csi/producer_picks/ you can watch the producer's favorite episodes for free on your computer. :D
Yes, I saw this last night
My husband is one of those Vets that could potentially have his identity stolen. :( Very concerning!
Other night job
I dance at the local "Dancing Bare"and am known as the cellulite Grandma.
up all night?
Has anyone ever pulled an all-nighter and typed through the night after your shift during the day? Please tell me how you did it! A strong pot of coffee is a given and some carbs are probably a given.
Also, those of you who work the midnight shift, do you have any tips for staying alert when the house is quiet and the neighborhood is fast asleep?
Thanks in advance!
up all night
This will really mess with your circadian rhythm and make you crazy. No kidding. That is why they outsource now to India (among other things) because when we sleep, they are having their morning coffee and are ready for their day.
