Which would come out to about $14/hour for a 40-hour week. Still not too bad.
Just hang in there, girl. You are not doing bad for 5 months. Just work as much as you can. The longer hours you put in, the sooner you will become familiar with the terminology, accents, etc. and you will get better at knowing how and where to look things up (big part of increasing speed IMO).
Good luck!

Union diesil mechanic - good pay, great benefits. We swap year to year on who brings home more sm
money.....but I am an IC and he has all the benefits...health insurance/dental that the company pays for, pension plan, 401k, etc. Factor all of that in and he makes way more than I do.
to cowgirl - Last I knew, last year the job paid $25,000/year no taxes, etc.
The hospital was bombed about a year ago, but not a lot of damage, very minimal damage.

After I went to a 1-year MT course at a vocational school, it was so bad that I did the 2-year colle
Not only did I finally receive the proper training, but the woman on the advisory board hired and mentored me. I also joined the local AAMT and networked. Good luck. I know how frustrating it can be. A community college will have a good program to include medical language, MT courses taught by local MTSOs, business English, anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, etc.
I think he makes $700,000.00 a year, and if they ask him to walk before his first year MQ has...sm
to pay him a cool 1 million dollars. You can check this out at the Medquist website. I think the CFO makes $350,000 a year, and the head of IT makes $250.000 a year.
P.S. This does not include the perks, like expense account, car allowance, sign-on bonus, etc.
Our 16 year old son has been working for a year now to pay for his truck.
He's learning how to sand and do body work and how the engine and transmission go together. My parents didn't buy cars for my siblings and I either. I had a 20+ year old beater car until I could afford to move up to a a newer one.
I see all the nice new cars parked in the high school parking lot every day. It's nice that so many disrespectful punk kids get handed something nicer to drive than what all the teachers drive. Oh, well. Honestly, I think most of them borrow Mommy or Daddy's car or are the child of a doctor who can afford to hand them everything.
Hopefully, my kids will take better care of their cars because they bought and built them on their own. You're not going to grow up to be responsible if you don't work hard for something and expect Mommy and Daddy to bail you out all the time.
Oh, my Dad lectured us on even allowing our child to have a vehicle because Dad didn't have one until after he had worked his way through college, lettered on the football team, got straight As, lettered on the baseball team, yadda yadda. He either walked or hitched a ride. Yeah, well, times were different back then, Daddy-O. LOL At least my kid has the opportunity to work and earn his own car.
IC - 30 hours week, $98K last year. So far this year - 28K. sm
Individual IC - own account(s).
Not me, owed last year, and expect to owe this year- sm
or break even, had more expenses this year. Only owed $200 but still don't want to owe at all. Need to start doing estimated tax payments again so I don't owe! Guess I will get off my butt and do that this year.
come on.. you cannot compare a 2-year-old and a 15-year-old

46/F I have a 9-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy.

Got $$$$ back last year but this year
I have to pay them, sold a property I never lived in but I had enough sense to set aside $45,000 so just waiting on them to send me my WT2s so I can get started.
Not what I meant . .
If the person doesn't get the item for some reason, I have always refunded. I think people who are scamming are people who take it and run. I have always refunded.
I think you meant
some positive things. I agree with you, but sometimes people just need to vent and this is a good place to do it.
Have a great Friday everyone.
I meant put not up .
No, that is what I meant. thanks
nm
Oh okay, thanks. You meant the *best* was over.

Not you, MQ4 This was meant for
I posted it in the wrong place.
Meant to say nm not sm

Maybe you meant this to be to me..
She never said she was going to Florida. I am not the OP but told her to have fun and that we would be going minus kids to Florida this weekend. If so, to answer your question, we are not going on a vacation. We are going because my husband's company wants us to relocate. They are paying for the air fare/hotel/rent-a-car, etc. We have several BUSINESS meetings to go to where kids would not be appropriate. My kids are young and could not sit still for a real long time where we would be able to sufficiently discuss BUSINESS. Thanks for asking though
thanks, but not what i meant...
Thanks for the response, but i was not referring to Meditec software - i was referring to the training program. Thanks anyway!
He probably meant to say... sm
"No significant ventricular dilatation". Yeah, let voice recognition pick up that goof!
I meant to say
less money...$15.00 less every day
Yes, that is exactly what I meant. (nm)
Sorry, meant to put this on
nm
I meant *Few* - not Dew! LOL

we know what he meant.......nm
that's not what he meant...
nm
I think she meant this one...
Duh, I meant not new..!

Sorry, meant sm, not nm for the above.
mea culpa!
All I meant
It's sad but true--bad things can happen anywhere and anytime. But Minnie, as a mother, don't you agree that a child is generally safer at home with his parent/s. The best daycare in the world can't love or protect a child as a parent would. A child at home with his mom, generally speaking, is safe from such an incident. That's all I meant.
I don't think she meant it like that...
I've had to actually put boil in my ShortHand (boyle)because I could also never remember how to spell it correctly. I really think she was just trying to help you stay out of QA harm's way:-) We're here to help each other.
Sorry, this was meant for OP n/m

I meant CNA,
not CAN. Typo, oh my!
Yes! This is what I meant!
The system is not smooth at all. You cannot always control the cursor ... It puts sentences at the bottom of the page that are supposed to be in the middle of the page...and there is a LOT of editing...and this was supposed to make me faster! HA!
meant to put a
little face in there but just have to use your imaginations!
This is what I think she really meant...sm
I work for a mid-size company. We have hired MTs from no experience to OMG experience. Some have worked, some have not (don't care about the experience). However, we have hired some MTs that had worked strictly for hospitals and this was their first at-home job. Needless to say again, some worked, some did not. The big problem that I have personally dealt with when dealing with an MT that has only worked IN a hospital is that they do not have the concept of being paid per line (not having worked that way previously), they do not have charts to review so they can figure things out and the biggest thing is that SOME (not all) hospitals do not care as long as the doctors are not complaining about the work. SOME (not all) of these MTs go to work for services where there is actual real QA and their work is just not up to par. I am not talking about BOS rules either. I am talking general standard of medical transcription and putting out a 98% or above correct in dictation report.
Meant to say
I have been working as an independent contractor instead of for. Am trying to get ready to drop of some medical records and cheer up Ms. Very Unhappy at the same time!!! Multitasking!
Put under yours, not meant for you
Meant for the one who is blowing her own horn.
LOL--meant sometimes they GO in there:-)
I meant THINK of this.
Any feedback on the idea is appreciated. Thank you.
Did not mean Sue, i meant OP. sorry..nm
xxxxxxxxxxx
Meant to say, look for another IC job
while keeping that one to supplement your income. As an IC, you decide how much you are going to work, so if getting quite a bit on one, then don't work the other.
meant to add
pardon the mess . . . I'll admit that is part of what took so long, but I just decided to heck with it! LOL!!
I think kt meant
on a line. If have 650 characters in a document, that is equal to 10 lines (650 divided by 65 = 10 lines), then multiply that by whatever your cpl rate. If 0.10 cpl then that would be 10 lines x 0.10 cpl, which would equal $1.00. If 6500 characters, then that would be 100 lines x 0.10 cpl, which would equal $10.00.
