One poster said that Kellie made Southerners look stupid and one poster said Bucky might get the boot. I was responding to them in my post.

Anon, which post are you replying to?
????????????
One of the ones in the previous post.
There in no guarantee with any of the options that you will have service everywhere you go. If you travel mostly in major cities an air card might be an option. The monthly fee is usually $60+ and I don't know if you have to sign a contract. If you have to be connected to the internet all the time now to work (can't download work and then get off-line) then working in the car isn't going to be an option.
I didn't get any of what you said from the previous post
I think the poster was just saying that nationals do those things mentioned. Nowhere was it said in her post that nationals are crooks. Those are your words and you're trying to put them in her post because she she contradicted your theory.
If your DD has previous skills she can post
resume on the on-line sites like monster.com. There are few jobs that are legit. If they require $$ upfront you can bet they are a scam.
The platform is escription....and sorry about the typos in my previous post...
Does anyone else have trouble reading this post and previous one from this poster?
It is hard to read when correct punctuation, etc. is not used. I know everyone returns to work. I am just saying that it would be nice not to return to 40 hrs worth of typing & it be expected to be caught up on the day I return. Call me crazy, but I believe there are only 24 hrs/day. I may not be able to read this post well, but I can do math! It is also not fair for them to dump all my work on 1 other person. Jobs come & go, but children grow up & life is too short. I would like to thank those who posted support & compassion & hope when this poster needs help, you will overlook her insensitivity & give support anyway.
Bucky
No pro future for Bucky?? Huh-he was approached by Led Zepplin a few weeks into Idol. I am not a rock fan or a Led Zepplin fan, but think that was a pro invitation. I am from Rockingham, so know. I have only lived here for two years, originally from the midwest, but as far as Kelly and Bucky-they talk and act like they do down here. Might sound "dumb like a box of hair," but that is the way it is here. I think Kelly is cute (and plays a dumb blonde well), but also think she has probably lived a sheltered life and never been out of Albemarle, North Carolina. All in all, North Carolina still has 3 in the top 8. Cannot beat that!!
Rockingham, NC-Bucky
I agree Bucky is not the best choice for American Idol, but I have lived here only 2 yrs and they sure are making it a Big Deal here. I won't vote for someone "just because." I want the true "American Idol." Love Carrie Underwood. I liked Kellie at first, not my fav, but now she is playing the dumb blonde way too well. I think she is best in jeans. Didn't fit the tight dress thing (pulling up the back and the boobs) with heels though she looked nice. Can't wait for next week and the 50's theme!!! Should be good. I definitely think Kevin needs to go. I do believe he actually thinks he is a sex symbol. I think Chris is cute and has a voice, but I HATE that rock and thinking you have to pick up the mic stand and play with it. Drives me nuts. Must do something for a few people. What's his name did it last season. Is kind of like football players taking off the helmets and doing a little jig in the end zone. Oh.....
Bucky might get the boot . .
Simon was right - that hair was just bad! The stylists are doing them wrong.
Bucky must go! I agree as well sm.
I personally don't think he has the vocals for this competition; he should have tried Nashville Star!
bucky may have a future but he does come.NM
.
Kevin, Kellie, and Bucky can go -
Taylor and Katherine were my favs this week. Taylor is consistent in entertaining people and Katherine has a very strong voice, although her choice of songs isn't always the best. I'm hooked on Idol! LOL Bye-bye Kevin.
For sure... Bucky? He's nice, but has no pro future.

but no matter what Bucky sings....nm
I agree, Bucky's performance was at least fun.
Ace is always annoying. But I think Bucky was very fortunate to have lasted as long as he did. I'm sure he'll be able to find work, at least as a second job. There have been other country singers that did find even though they aren't great singers. I've never thought Brooks & Dunn had great voices at all, and they make a living.
I don't watch AI, but Bucky is from a nearby town. They
interview Rocky (his twin) on our local Fox channel frequently. He always has his hair back in a ponytail and it looks much better than what I've seen with Bucky and that hair all loose - and what is it with that wide stance I've seen on the previews. If it is supposed to be sexy it isn't. Anyway his brother doesn't seem to be a genius either, but he doesn't come across as a dummy either. Evidently he sings too and he said that both of them would probably move to Nashville and try to get something going.
Yeah. Bucky was not one of my faves but it was Ace's turn to go!
x
I'm ready for Bucky to go, too. I think Chris really took it to the next level last night and I
thought Mandisa was fabulous! Thought it was funny how these kids really weren't even familiar with Barry Manilow, guess I'm showing my age.
I think Bucky will go home tonight. I did not like Taylor's performance.

thanks for replying
thank you
Thanks for replying :)
Thanks for your help, I am going to check into that one. :)
thanks for replying!
I am in my 24th year of transcribing! I'm not alone but at times very frustrated...
thanks for replying - nm

Thanks for replying...
there's good and bad in there, I guess. I have heard that people in different locations will get different speeds (no matter what speed they are paying for), and that makes me a bit nervous. But stability is just as, or even more important, and it sounds like its been really stable for you. So I'm taking heart and keeping my fingers crossed! Thanks! 
Thanks so much for replying
I was beginning to think no one would reply for fear of Big Brother watching!
ideally!..:) Thanks for replying. nm

Thanks for replying, thought I might
know you - wasn't intending to make anyone un-anonymous or flame, just wanted to say hi if it was who I thunk it might be. Oh well!
Thanks for replying. I have noticed that there seem to be a lot of ads ... sm
that mention this. I am thinking of seeing if I can train on it. I currently work in DOS so at least I am used to that part. I usually use ShortCut for Windows but I do have ShortHand also but am not as familiar with it. Just thinking about it - thanks again for your help.
Thanks for replying. May I ask how long it took you
finish your degree?
Thanks for the encouragement also.
I think she was replying to the person who
At least that's my take on it. It's clear you went out of your way to write to that AHDI person and obtain and post her (mis)information-filled reply, and for that I, and everyone else who calls themselves a true AMERICAN MT, thank you! Knowledge is power, and MTs need as much of both as they can possibly get these days.
Kudos for your investigative endeavors!

replying to viv's response on 9/13/08
Oh you think that my grammatical style is bad huh? I just went and reread it and being that I don't feel it was bad. I had to state my point and no it wasn't me! Things just didn't mesh for me and that company! They got a second chance and proved themselves the same! Have you or do you work for this company? Who are you to judge anyways? This board is for posting stuff that most of us posters feel is important for others to see or hear. If I wanted someone like you to comment...I would have asked ok! I am coming along almost a month later because I was working my a** off at a real great place! Sometimes on this posting board thing we don't always type grammatically correct it is not a prerequiste for the posters as I see others not always being grammatically correct! So again I do not know who you are but just yourself let it go cause that last post I made was going to be the last one till I see this! Thanks for caring though! mtinsd
replying to job posting
I am not sure if I am doing this correctly. I have tried to reply to several job postings and I never hear anything back. If they don't list an email in the job posting I click on apply now, is this correct?
I have been an MT for over five years, have experience with many different specialities and ESL dictators, so I think my resume is pretty good.
Frustrated with work. I have lost about 6-7 really good doctors over the last 1-1/2 years to VR. The company I work for says they have no control over who gets switched to VR and are not notified when this happens. I will have a great work load and then all of a sudden nothing. Now it seems like there isn't much work to go around.
Thank you so much for replying - that gives me some guidelines to follow
nm
I thought replying might be a "boost"...
so they would know it was coming from one of their own ads and not just an unsolicited resume. Well, shoot! I'll be sure to send a followup email to make sure they got it. Thanks!
Does anyone actually take the time to read the posts BEFORE replying?
been "mentoring" with them for 9-months.....so Yes, she has already been taken for the $$$, and obviously being shot down saying she is not quite good enough yet to "work" for them. ---Ever now and then someone will come on and say they "work" for them and how great they are, but its a bunch of bunk, look at the archives, 99% negative, total scam all the way. Sorry you got taken.
not the poster you are replying to, but I loved Lorenzo's Oil and Pay

Thanks for replying. I'll check out 2003.

Apparently replying to you. Thats the problem with MTs today.
NOBODY looks over their stuff. The new MTs are taught to hurry, hurry, type, type so you can make lines. When I was learning MT, not at an MT school but in college with my other medical records classes, THEY TAUGHT ACCURACY.
You MTs today dont have a lick of pride in your work, else there would be no mistakes like food instead of foot.
typo? that is a flipping copout.

No you wouldn't. You wouldn't like being required to work 7 days per week, mandatory, just like a sweat shop. Of course YOU can make huge amounts of money too if you work 18 hour days.
Of course, I should add that the previous pay was MQ and after the changes that

I have an HP...my previous one was also
an HP and I loved it. My main problem is getting sound to record. I have found that most of my programs work well with Vista. I did speak to HP today and they told me to uninstall sound card and reinstall but I have not tried it yet. They said if it did not work I would have to send it in :(
not this job, but previous one did.

Who was your previous employer? I'm more
interested in making "insane amounts of money" than if an employer is nice to me. That's my personal preference.
Mind telling me who your previous was?
Thx.
Given her previous behavior
she would probably accuse you of molesting her if you did try to hug her.
My previous HIM director was sm
a true psychowitch. One day nice as pie and would give you the world. The next day, a bug would bite her and you would spend the next two weeks on all the garbage reports, worst ESL's. I got out. She liked me but didn't like the fact that I didn't suck up or tattle. She hid in a meeting on my last day of work. I went on call but got so busy with my new job that I wasn't able to come in three times when she called so she fired me. How's that for being a witch. She had one other gal on call for a year that didn't come in when she was called and as far as I know, she is still on call. Go figure.
previous posts
I did read all the previous posts, as you indicated. You did give a lot of information. I will let you know in a week or two what I think.
No the previous poster, but I have one...
I like this one. Not sure if you have it or not. The nice thing is that it covers all the states and you can do a sound a like search as well. If you don't find what you are looking for in the AMA results you can just click below the results on "View Non Members" and that will take you to another listing of physicians. I love this site.

Previous DQS uster
That would depend on the new program. I went from DQS last November to MedRite XL and my count plumeted from 260 an hour to about 100 an hour the first few weeks, but keep in mind I was learning three new accounts at the time. Right now I am at about 220 lines per hour unless I get five 10-minute ESL docs in a row. Just a very cumbersome program.
see previous message above
"Pled" is an American term. The correct word is actually "pleaded."
sm to previous thanx message
thanx
Just went back to previous
job at a doctors practice for a lunch with past co-workers and friends... after that I'm always glad that I left for transcribing at home. Love alot the people I worked with and even my bosses but hated the rest of the crap that goes with an office, every day a new crisis, etc. When I'm feeling down about transcribing and all the junk that can get you bogged down at home, I just need to make a visit back to the old job site and it makes me realize how lucky I am... not that there aren't things that could be better in the MT at home world, but it sure beats what I would have still been doing if I didn't make the move home. Just wish I could bring a few of my friends with me, but I was the only Transcriptionist in that bunch. Just trying to keep smiling!
