I was not meaning you directly at all

In Reply to: Sorry you feel that way - sm
guess I was just trying to get across the point that in other parts of the states southerns are protrayed as such. I am white, my husband is black and my mixed daughter was an English major in college here in the south and an accountant now, She, along with me, shutter when we hear ebonics. Like where you live and where I live outsiders would probably not believe with all the diversity, huh?

I don't think it can do that, it you are meaning
HE to He, etc.
I know the meaning is not
derogatory, any more than my grandmother was being derogatory when she said "colored people." Certainly, all the countries you mention (Middle East, etc) can be considered oriental, since the word just means of the east. ("We Three kings from Orient Are.") But I have never heard anyone use the term "Oriental" to describe someone from Turkey, or Saudi Arabia, or any Caucasian person in the eastern hemisphere; only to people from the Far East (many Americans tend to muddle people from these countries into a group because of their similar physical characteristics). At any rate, Asian is the favored term today. Oriental things (such as rugs) are a different story. My cousin (age 54) still uses the word "Oriental" for people from the Far East... she also gets Arabs and Indians mixed up. oriental/occidental
ps CTA meaning to cover their a**.

I said he is the same on the inside, meaning,
he still is the most tender-hearted man I have ever known in my life, the same as 28 years ago when I married him. He knows that I firmly believe that his drinking is wrong and that it is killing him (which I don't want to happen), but, leaving him is not something I want to do (been there, done that). I choose to stay. Not everybody's situation is the same and, Biblically, I have absolutely no reason to leave him nor do I want to leave. I hate to see him killing himself this way and that is something that I pray about daily. 
IC status meaning
I worked 3 weeks for a company as IC status. They wanted a schedule so I did one and then the work was not coming through so the third week was told not to do schedule; it did not look like the MD I was going to have would get into a routine. I did the work at night or early morning. Was told I had to work my schedule even if I had no work I had to be there in case it came in. Does IC status not mean TAT and production but flexibility with schedule as long as you get the work done. Also it went from 60 minutes to 120 and then at the time I finished the 100 minutes 85 more came through and it was like she expected me to do it right then. I had 24 hours. Also was called as soon as it uploaded at 4p.m. one day and was asked "ARE YOU TYPING". It was not my scheduled time and it had only been uploaded about 30 minutes. What is your take on this. IC does not mean be harrassed if not an employee with benefits right. No work for 3 days and then hounded as soon as it came in. I am not there now because I voiced my opinion.
IC meaning independent contractor?
As far as I know...no...for independent contractor, they do not have to pay any benefits or even take out SS, so I would think it would be MORE not less for IC. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
I am not meaning to start a firestorm, but can anybody SM
explain this? I'm not trying to get banned, but every other site on the net survives just fine and there is no such restriction on them.
Maybe I'm dense, but I can't even make up a sensible reason for it.
Exactly what I was meaning in post below, but you say it so articulately. Thanks.

It sounds to me like this MTSO needs to look up the meaning of IC. sm
From your description, you have been more than understanding. We set our hours and we work them, but are not sitting here every time something is needed. I have worked 3 IC jobs (simultaneously) in the last 1-1/2 years, and can tell you there are wonderful companies out there that are very considerate. You don't need this one.
Are y'all meaning Sylcount?
If you need an Expander too, you can get Instant Text, which has counting, invoicing, and reporting built in. :-)
Again, you've missed the meaning.
The interpretation is this: Money will speak louder than just writing a letter. Speak financially. Get it now?
'Plenty' meaning - the 6 or 7 people who
The sclerae (plural) are injected, meaning SM

Isn't it an "at will" relationship, meaning that no cause is needed at all?

No, that's baloney. Study-up on meaning of 'cult'.

Lanier is proprietary meaning it will only work
with a Lanier system and you cannot use a C-Phone or DVI workstation to access a Lanier digital system. You won't be able to use it with a DVI system or Dictaphone. However, if memory serves, you should be able to use a Dictaphone C-phone or DVI workstation interchangeably with most other digital dictation systems and Dictaphone.
I'm glad you brought this up. I've been meaning to
maybe "black and white" chars. (meaning spaces

Does anybody understand the meaning of EmErGeNcY room anymore?
I cannot understand why I type SO many ERs with trivial chief complaints such as:
sore throat - cough - pimple - splinter - blister - farted - (okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a little, but COME ON people!)
The most recent ccx.....Can I take a laxative? Not constipated, just needs to know if she can take a laxative along with her hypertension med. Thought she better go to the ER to ask. 
Why are these people allowed to be such a waste of ER resources?
Just a pet peeve....wondering if anyone agrees with me.....perhaps someone else who has spent hours in an ER waiting room for something or other.
isn't off peak meaning night/weekend and therefore would not count toward the 450? nm

well time to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas...
and please dont get me wrong... i know these times are hard for everyone and i hope your work picks up or you find a job that helps... but regarding the holidays... so many of us (myself included) have made this a buy buy buy holiday. I'm been so upset this year because I have bought barely ANY gifts but I simply cannot afford them. So then I realized, it is time for family and togetherness, as generic as that sounds... life is short... it's not about "things" it's about people. And I'm not super religious, but this is a good video below.
good luck on work!

Might be meaning the 3 boxes left upper corner??
the 3 little square boxed in the right hand corner, see them. The middle one makes a bigger screen. Unclick it and it goes back to regular size. This this what you meant.
Well, grammar/punctuation can dramatically alter meaning, so it IS important. nm

Yes DIRECTLY FROM THE ......nm
What I would tell you directly sm
I know you want a better job and for whatever reason, it just has not happened...YET.
Anything worth having is worth waiting for. Up to a point, the longer you wait the better it will be. Though, after a while it seems useless, it really isn't.
I had a wonderful job up until summer of 2007. Like a fool, I had $$ in my eyes and I took a job at 10 cpl. It was hard work and the line counts weren't great, but then they started to regularly run out of work. That was year ago this month. I started actively looking for work and I had offers, but I didn't take them because the grass is usually greener over the septic tank, rather than on the other side of the fence. I have been burned and didn't want to be so again. I sent out one last resume just before Christmas, but didn't think anything would come of it. I was wrong. My gift for Christmas turned out to be my dream job, so I quit the one I had.
In June, the one I quit in December begged me to come back and I accepted, because as a PT job, it would be perfect, and it has been. The boss I disliked is gone and a great gal is in her place. There is also a great deal of work.
I have the same time in you do, 15 years. I have waited much of that time for a full time job and a part time job to come together in a way that meshes as perfectly as these two do. All good and wonderful things come to those who wait.
I am wishing YOU all good things and soon. There is a company out there wishing for a hard worker, looking for their needle in a haystack and that needle is YOU. Best wishes and good luck!
Jan -- I type directly into the EMR
Your doctor can still dictate but you will type directly into the EMR but you need to do it in house unless they allow you access from home -- which they might. But it is hard to charge per line as there will be some "normals" that they put in. So I do it hourly at the clinic. Have done this twice now for clinics. The first one, only one doc did the dictation, then another started and pretty soon all five were doing it and I had to quit as they needed someone full-time and I have my other own accounts. I did it just to help them out at first and get out of the house. But they did not like the hours they spent after seeing the patient doing the charting. So one never knows. Good luck but don't burn your bridges. Charge them reasonably but not out of anger.
Please see the post directly above yours.
While you are right that SSDI is different than SS, you forget that there are hundreds of children out there who have lost one or both parents and receive SS until age 18. They are certainly not retired so you're argument that it is SUPPOSED to be an account that helps people after they retired is inaccurate. It is, as originally stated, a program that was meant to help people who fell on hard times (not retirement).
As far as judging someone else, I'm just stating facts.
Like many other hardworking people on this board, I am not especially fond of watching my tax money be spent in a wasteful manner (I am not calling SS wasteful), and I certainly do not appreciate the people out there who are looking for ways around the system.
I could go on in this vein for a while but I've got to get back to my work. :)
Wow, this must be directly for a facility. Sm msg
Very hard to imagine an MTSO paying that type of money, although it is well worth every penny! Good luck! Grab it quick!
Even though IC directly for the hospital,
it sounds like you do not handle all of their transcription needs (in other words, providing the staffing, with the hospital being your account). For MTSOs who do have hospital accounts, I have seen the rates varying between about 18 cpl and 25 cpl (I imagine this is dependent on several factors, such as how the lines are counted, volume of dictation, and geographical location, among other things). For clinic accounts it also varies, but usually at a lower rate, about 12 cpl to 18 cpl, again depending on several factors.

working directly for rad office
If you took a position working from home directly for a small doctors' office (5 docs) with no ESL and you supplied your own computer and internet, what is the lowest line rate you would accept? There is a good chance they may provide benefits too, including medical insurance. This would be for radiology only with mammos, x-rays, CTs, diagnostics, ultrasounds and no MRIs.
Thanks in advance for comments.
I work directly for a hospital in the NE,
the list is provided to me by the hospital.
Hi, Paul. Appreciate hearing from you/him directly.) SM
Anon, I also love this product; Paul and Ben did a great thing producing it and I'm grateful. I can't say why I like the platform so much except that it pretty much doesn't make me think about it. The work's in the reports, not fussing with the system. With one big exception as far as I'm concerned--it really needs a wild card or at least a better search feature for practitioner's names. That's often a major time waster.
I also like it so much because I find I'm faster on VR. It turns out I have a knack for editing, while I'm just a mediocre typist; others are obviously discovering the opposite. I certainly don't feel the disconnect from the dictator's meaning described by another editor. I confess, although many "hearing-it-wrong" mistakes are made by eScription (enough to make me needed), I've come to have a very healthy respect for its ear and listen very very carefully before overriding its reading.
That said, I'm unfortunately soon moving on to another, untried platform. My old account was offshored, like other eScription accounts with my employer before. I've heard the profit margin with eScription is just too low to compete with local editors. Sad reality???
I have my headphones plugged directly into

I plug my headset directly...
...into the computer in the jack that you plug speakers into.
You might need to bypass the USB hub and plug directly in. sm
I have had this problem with other USB devices. I just switch around until I find one that will work in hub. I don't use EMDAT so don't know if that's the problem. Maybe someone else can shed some light on this.
Is the post you replied to directly above this one?
If not, the one you replied to may have been deleted. They can't control that. They delete one part and everything in response to it automatically goes with it. They can't leave responses hanging there when the one it was tacked onto was deleted.
That cpl is for contractors working directly with doc.
I made 14 cpl (65 char including spaces) when I had my own account.
My DD is a social worker and says that she dictates directly into VR
and the report is on her desk when she gets back to the office. She said everyone in her department loves it!
Anyone else have the family pet who has to sit directly on your foot pedal? My dog (who is an 80-lb
black lab) has done this all week and will not come out from under my desk. Don't know if it's the weather or what, but it is making me crazy!
I take it you've also been lied to directly by supervisor?
I'd go directly to college, which I've done and I'm in my late 40's too.
A high school diploma these days will buy a cup of coffee and a donut, unfortunately.
You need to email me directly to admin@mtstars.com

Do a search of your C drive for it. I have mine placed directly - sm
in my C drive but usually it is in some obscure place within a file, within a file, etc. Look for "autorecovery" and see what comes up. Then the file will not be named "Smith ltr" or whatever but with letters and numbers, go by the date modified column (list details) for the date and time of the file. Hope this helps.
Since when does the child support go directly to the kids? lol!

Was told working directly in MS Word...sm
when I asked what the platform was, that's what she said.
Now I see why I have to have unlimited long distance, and a second phone line!
