I think you are preaching to the moon.

This subject is just as bad as politics and religion. Good for you, you don't eat meat. As for me, I think nothing tastes better than a nice big juicy steak! Yum, yum!

last night was a new moon, not a full moon - sm
my kids were wound up too though.

Helping is one thing. Preaching is another.

I'm not preaching. And anyone who cares is still paying attention. SM
If you don't care, then you'll be without a job soon enough. The rest of us will try elevate medical transcription while you work for pennies and compete with the Indians.

Thank you Moon!

Your post made me happy! Finally, someone who "gets it." Maybe you could email me and tell me who you work for? I bet MT's would LOVE to work for someone like you.

Moon
QA doesn't put their signature or # on the document anywhere, do they?
I know the MTs goes on there, so how would they even track a certain report to the QA person that did it?
Also, what about the reports that don't go through QA and go directly to the facility?

Thanks again Moon!
You are 100% correct! I AM just trying to get it right and do a good job! I do not believe that we all need to just, "suck it up" etc., that is the problem with this whole industry! No one wants to stick up for themselves or the industry. They would rather put up with it, just for sheer peanuts. I don't believe it is right. If there were more people like us, this industry would be a whole lot better off. Some people just don't care about crap work and just want to collect a paycheck. I honestly care about the work that I put out.

Moon
But what about the ones you don't proof?

Exactly right moon...
nm

If they can send a man to the moon...
Why can't they invent something to stop cherry picking once and for all??? ARGH. I'm having an annoying day myself - must be Hurricane Katrina....

MAN you can tell it's a full moon!

Is it full moon out tonight?

Moon void this morning
Mercury is in its shadow period right now and the moon just went direct at 9:30 Eastern time....not full until next week. (see www.astroprofile.com) We're just getting started. To quote Bette Davis, "Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy ride."

Take lots of deep breaths and try and stay as positive as you can.....hang in there!

YOU are right! These companies promise the moon so they (sm)

can get the accounts and the MTs are the ones that get the bad deal. To be honest, I too, am not good with heavy ESLs but I sure try. I am also slower than most - but I sure try. There are some ESLs that really try hard and I appreciate their efforts. Then there are ESLs that are so fast and so sloppy I haven't a clue what they are saying. There are also horrible American dictators too. As the above poster said - the lack of decent courtesy is gone. Their excuse - I'm in a hurry, blah, blah, blah. Well sometimes I'm in a hurry so maybe I should stop capitalizing words, quit looking up strange words, forget punctuation. Really! Have dictators forgotten that there is a real human being transcribing his mess?

It's a full moon? Bring on Van Morrison!!!!
x

I hear ya...must be a full moon or the infamous
"I've eaten the microphone and I can't dictate" monster has reared its ugly head!!!

Hugs, girl!

My keyboard problem (is it a full moon?) sm
I can't get one to last more than a New York minute!

I bought TWO HP keyboards the Saturday before Christmas. As of yesterday, I have already killed one! It was squeaking and didn't type out things I know perfectly well I had typed. I would have had over 2000 lines if I had not had to back up every word to fix it.

I don't like Microsoft keyboards, the punch is too hard. This HP, the punch is very light and I like it, but man, they don't last. I am hard on keyboards, it is true and they last about 2 or 3 months if I am lucky. I hate the ones that are too clicky and noisy, if you know what I mean.

What are you all using? I have to do something and my budget does not run to a $100 keyboard right now. Help me please.

Oops, missed the part about expecting it to be as big as the moon!
.

Yes, and what about Moon Zappa and Dweezil? What in the world were they thinking?
Horrendous.
