It seemed to me that you were the one who put them in the post. Perhaps that isn't what you meant. ???
No, I actually don't have issues with my parent's divorce. It happens. They have both moved on and are happy and I am happy for them. Are you trying to put words in MY MOUTH? LOL.
I know A LOT of kids whose parents are not divorced who overly indulge their children. In fact, it was because my parents were divorced that I was not given more help (such as paying or helping to pay for my education). Both sets of parents were *starting over* so I don't think that line holds true that the divorced parents have more money. At least not in every case.
Listen, I am probably the same kind of Mom as you are. I would feel the same way if my daughter's best friend was being spoiled like that (minus the feelings toward the parents being divorced). My 12 yo daughter is always wanting to know why she can't have a cell phone, iPod, portable DVD player, phone in her room, etc. MOST of her friends have all these things and will probably have cars when they turn 16. So don't blast me, I am on the same page as you as far as that goes.
I just felt like you were commenting negatively that the child comes from divorced parents. If I was wrong then I apologize.

DO NOT PUT WORDS IN MY MOUTH...OP
First of all, I only mentioned the fact that the child has 4 parents to make a point...they have twice the resources we have to give their child things like a car for her birthday...that's the only reason I brought that up. I do not hold the fact that her natural parents are divorced against her...I love this girl! I'm just worried about her being, first of all, turned loose in a car mere hours after getting her license, and the fact that now my daughter is wanting to run around in the car with her!
I know it's none of my business, that's why I have NOT stated any opinions to ANYONE...except my husband, about the situation. So, you completely took my post out of context. Perhaps you have some unresolved issues with your parent's divorce?
took the words right outta my mouth
Classic!
did not put words in your mouth just noted
that I didn't think the problem was that I didn't know what I was doing. Unfortunately, Dragon doesn't limit their claims to only disabled MT's. So I thought it important to post that it doesn't do what Dragon likes to say it can do.
I wasn't putting down Network Marketing...sm
Simply stating where the money in Quixtar comes from. Sure, you get a bonus check every month if you sell products, but the majority of the money comes from the tools. Tapes that are made from Quixtar seminars are sold and pushed on people. If you don't get on the tool program, they don't want to help you - because they won't make money if you don't buy the tools.
Busy MT'ing...you took the words right out of my mouth...sm
Great advice. Attitude is everything. It brings to mind a quote I read not too long ago...
"I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails."
I didn't "put words in" your mouth...
I've had enough of this. Opinions are opinions. That's all. Continue to try to keep this going, if you must. I don't care to participate any further. I am not one to thrive on contention.
Those would probably be the LAST words out of her mouth for a long time

Lots of 'em, but use a Lab Words, Sted's Ortho/Rehab Words, & Tessier's Surgical Words most
s
You'll need a lab words book and maybe the Derm and Immunology Words..nm
s
Stedmans Med $ Surgical Equip words, Path and Lab words, and Tessiers Surgical Word book (3rd
edition). I never buy drug books anymore. Waist of money in my opinion. New drugs come out so often, it's best to use the web.
The Sted's Ortho & Rehab Words is probably my most used book and then the Lab Words book. GL! nm

Chicken pox in the mouth
I'd be calling my doc asap with it being in her mouth. The home remedy I had to use was Maalox/Benadryl and doc added diluted Xylocaine to numb it. My dd had it on her uvula also. Made a concotion of yogurt with the above also and added Lysine to it to. That is after the doc had a look at her. Good luck but don't mess around.
We go to them. Word of mouth is a big one.
There are farmers markets and roadside stands. Some of the ranchers advertise in the weekly advertisement papers, and others advertise in the daily newspaper. We also have religious sect colonies near our town, who either set up stands or go door to door. You can always drive to the colony as well to buy produce or meat. Ask the small butcher's shops or meat processing businesses where to get organic local meats.
You don't need to use the mouth for F10 and insert (see msg)
Not sure what you mean. If you use the F10 and insert the word, use the Alt, (I think it's T or X) whatever has the little underline in it, then esc. Mouse doesn't have to be used at all. Try it.
Put your money where you mouth is
I suggest that you go out and get accounts and have the MT's work for you and you don't pocket a dime when they give you "perfect work" and yet you have to still proof it, deliver it, answer all questions, invoice out and make sure the account is happy. I doubt that you would do all of that for free -- . I make 2 to 2.5 cents per line from my sub's. I am sure some of the VERY large companies are making 6-8 cpl but that covers the QA person, the software that they provide, the benefits, if they provide you with a computer, management, etc. But for us small to medium -- dare you try it and see how rich you get -- that is why I still type 2000 to 2500 lines per day and am ready to give up my subs as it is not worth the 20% I get off of their accounts.
snart mouth, eh?....does not ........NM
no, but my mouth is watering! nm
x
the mouth noises!!!
I hate it when they are sitting there thinking about what they want to say and are moving their tongue around in their mouth so it sounds like they are sucking or smacking!
it means nothing by mouth sm
but they probably wanted the exact meaning which is nothing per os.
It is not that I am 'frothing' at my mouth
because she implied that I am Indian, I am angry because she thought that she is some kind of detective and was criticizing my GRAMMAR!
Do you understand NOW ?
If you were putting
your pie hole to good use, you wouldn't have time to be on this board participating in such foolishness. How old are you?
Well why do you not like putting it where it goes?!?!
rude!
Ah, so this is putting them down!!??!! LOL!
My Post: I don't know..... I know many MTs making that in a month...but in their jammies, don't have to fuss with the makeup and only have to leave the house to go shopping! Oh, and they still get the write offs.
And sorry about the sobering up comment, I just coulnd't for the life of me figure out what you were looking at. And still can't! Many posters use initials sm/nm for see message or no message - maybe that's why you're getting confused : )
Just as I am putting away $ for my SM
later years (I have no children to depend on) I expected that my mother was. Wrong. I have currently chosen to essentially give up where I want to live, to be with who I want to be, to take care of things for now, but it won't be that way forever.
I am doing it out of obligation right now, but I don't intend to sacrifice the next 10 or so years of my life to keep doing this.
Putting myself out there
Has anyone ever done this...?
I am thinking about making a bunch of copies of my resume and writing a cover letter describing my abilities........then distributing it to different clinics around the area.
I work from home but want a second job as an in-house Transcriptionist to gain some experience and also because I am not making that much money here at home!
Has anyone ever done this? If so, have you had success doing it? How about putting an ad on Craigslist for transcriptionist services?
that one surely has both feet in their mouth right now.
When someone points a finger its usually to make themself feel more powerful, sad and unhappy person. Honey, all came here the same way, we came from dirt and are going back to dirt. You keep being strong, raise those babies the best you can and be proud you don't have the mentality of the person making such a crud statement.
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.
A mouth guard helped me
Good luck.
meant mouth SHUT

What is with these dictators with the microphone in their mouth?!
Cripe - I've been on this american doctor all morning and he is the pits. Sounds like he has the microphone buried inside of his mouth. All kinds of breath noises and other undesirable sounds. Things are so distorted and my line count is in the toilet. Don't they know its garbage in-garbage out? Plus he talks 200 mph. ARGH
loud-mouth neighbor
ooooooooooo, I would love 1 minute alone with your neighbor!!!!
oops - SMART MOUTH..............NM
typo
ok, I'll keep my mouth shut!! ;) Thanks! nm

Straight from the horse's mouth . . .
Snagged this straight from the Escription site. Hope it helps.
We have had success configuring both the Belkin USB/Serial Adaptor and the Dynex USB PDA/Serial Adaptor to work properly with a serial Foot Pedal and EditScript MT. Other adaptors may also work using this setup, however we cannot guarantee that they will.
- To set up the Belkin USB/Serial Adaptor:
- Install the USB/Serial adaptor per the instructions included with the device.
- After installation, open the Windows Device Manager:
- Right-Click on My Computer, choose Properties.
- From the Hardware tab, cick Device Manager.
- In the Device Manager window, click the + sign next to Ports (COM & LPT). You should see the USB/Serial Adaptor listed there with a COM port next to it.
- Right click on the Adaptor and choose Properties.
- From the Port Settings tab, click Advanced.
- From the COM Port Number drop-down, set the device to COM6. (Any COM device higher than COM4 should also work; be sure to remember what you set this to.)
- Click OK to close the Advanced window, then OK to close the Properties window.
- Close the Device Manager
- Now open EditScript and log in.
- Once you have logged in, click on the Options button in the EditScript toolbar:
- From the Foot Pedal tab, change the CommPort setting to COM6 (or whichever port it was set to above).
- Click OK to close the Options dialog.
Your Foot Pedal should now work properly through the Serial/USB adaptor.
Can you get cancer from chronic mouth
I have a wisdom tooth that is coming in. I do NOT do well w/ dentists/anesthesia, etc...well a few months back i had an appointment to have this removed. long story short even though the dentist knew I was freaked out about the local anesthesia he took so long to do the extraction my mouth was no longer numb when the hygenist tested my gum area. I freaked out, left crying and vowed to never go back to him. Well now that the tooth is slowly coming in more and more i have an ulcer that seems to be getting bigger from where i am more or less chewing the inside of my mouth.
It doesn't really hurt or bother me that much, i would much rather deal with the ulcer than have another panic attack/heart racing event from the local at the dentist's office. My concern is this: Can you develop cancer from a chronic mouth ulcer? My aunt died of oral (tongue) cancer last year so i'm paranoid about it.
Any info you can give is welcom. Thanks!
All accounts I have are through word of mouth.
I started calling whenever an ad appeared in the newspaper for an MT. From there all accounts have been through referral. Work quality is the best reference you have.
Put your money where your mouth is and cancel
your service and switch to someone different.
you talk out of both sides of your mouth--sm
on one hand you say compassion is another term for "enabling," and lending a helping hand to someone emotionally is only making them a victim. Now you say you have compassion and sympathy for others. yeah right.
She's talking out of both side of her mouth...
I know I recently saw a clip of a speech she did in which she said "outsourcing must stop" and "it is time to insource"
Yeah, work for $5/ hr and keep your mouth
?
PS-I don't like putting it over there, but was told had too!nm

My DH was putting together my new desk and he had
gotten to the deep drawer where files go. He put the frame of the drawer together without putting the bottom of the drawer on. Fortunately I happened to walking through the room at this point and told him he has to put the bottom in the grooves on one side before he can finishing putting the drawer together. He tells me that the directions don't say anything about that. I told him common sense dictates that you have to put the bottom before you put the second side on. Poor man. He is very bright, but has zilch common sense. I'm not very book smart, but have been blessed with my share of common sense and then some, so I guess we made a good couple - LOL.
The best way to help is to be supportive by putting
You didn't get pregnant. You sound very self rightous and with I told you so attitude. A decision to carry the pregnancy, terminate it or give up for adoption is not one to be made lightly or out of guilt because someone forced their own opinions down the throat of someone who obviously needs help. Being condescending doesn't bolster her self image to find the courage to live with whatever decision she makes. She needs support, not degradation, not put downs, not made to feel worse than she already does. This is a decision she will live with every day...not one you will have on your mind every day of your life.
Knowledge knows when to speak. Wisdowm knows when to listen.
By putting up with him and his ways
you are just enabling him. Sounds like not only are you doing most of the housework, you're providing most of the financial support. I think he has got it pretty good and as long as you don't give him an ultimatum why should he change. You're young yet and there sure is better out there. I'd cut my loses. I'd rather be alone than with someone like your SO.
Thank you putting another twist on what I am
trying to relay in my post above. Happiness is not bought or paid for. You must have self worth and some people like the fact that they can be an employee and have someone else do the worrying in regards to maintaining the account on the administrative level so to speak. I am not going to go on and on again but I just wanted to thank you for your opinion and taking the time to post...
nothing more then putting your name and email in as we do here
those that joined me, thanks. it was fun to talk in real time.
Agree, but WE are putting up with it...
...remember long ago when PROTEST was effective and alive and well?
There is no need for the powers that be to change anything if WE THE PEOPLE tolerate the abuse.
Peaceful protest is and always WILL BE patriotic.
I would strongly consider putting that
comment into the report. They certainly can't think any less of you and maybe seeing it in print will make them realize the harshness of their words as well as their own stupidity for assuming you are the only MT who types for them. Some dictators have no clue or class.
Keep putting your head in the s/m
sand about the credential. Don't get one, it's your choice. In the meantime, everyone else will get theirs and most of the ads (except for the rinky dinky jobs that pay nothing) will require the CMT and you won't be able to apply.
People will listen to you now because the majority of the people in MT don't have credentials. What will you say when the time comes that most do and you don't?
Thanks for putting the word out...
I knew it was Toth. They seem to prey on new grads and I was within 2 seconds of signing their contract....until I read it! Their contract is completely ridiculous and totally out of line, especially for IC. I really don't know how they stay in business. Maybe you at least got a little experience and can try applying at reputable companies. Good Luck!
Ok, moms, need your help! DD has chickenpox on the INSIDE of her mouth and on
I know I've heard of a mouth swish home remedy that can be swabbed inside the mouth to numb the area. If anyone knows what I'm talking about, PLEASE post!
Thanks in advance,
Exhausted Mama
