I was just elaborating on the positive aspects which give us freedom of choice.  I agree with you 100% about the negative aspects.  That's why I've been "happily divorced" for 8 years.

    Is me disagreeing with me? ROFLOL nm

    Not disagreeing with everybody but QA is a necessity!
    This QA poster is asking that the MTs not generalize when describing QA people and I for one hate to admit it, but she is right. I recently left a company whose QA personnel were absolutely awful - I don't even know how they got the job.  It was insulting to me as an MT.  However, I do have to say that over the years there have been 2-3 that I have relied heavily on from time to time.  They were almost like mentors instead of angry school marms.  I could e mail them at any time about anything, even if it was what seemed like a stupid question.  I have recently started a new job where we have to pull in dictation from old reports, chief complaints, meds, exam, etc. and copy and paste it to our current reports.  Mind you, these are MTs you have been on this account for YEARS.  I could not believe some of the stuff I was seeing - "pupils reactive to light in combination," or "benign prosthetic hypertrophy."  The list goes on and on.  I don't care how experienced these MTs thought they were, they should have been on 100% QA.  No, you may not be one that needs that, but believe me there are plenty out there who do.  Imagine you were that client.

    No, it wasnt Toth.
    Thanks! Have a good day!
    no where did I say it wasnt work?
    I only said you are not typing the lines that you should be paid BY THE HOUR and not by the line. That way, the more corrections you make the less you feel like "I'm not making any money today." Thus quality is going to be much better because the MT is not going to worry about going as fast as they can to make money and will take time out to make the corrections needed.

    There should be a requirement of lines, but not PAID per line.
    Sorry. I wasnt arguing with you. Im just generally
    it just gets me p1ssed off, and then i start ranting!
    wait..wasnt thread to send ESL's
    Now you dont want work sent overseas??  I thought the thread was to send all the ESL's overseas??  I frankly dont want any work sent anywhere but for all of it to stay in America and I will do the difficult and good doctors, cause they pay my salary.

    I agree. I would be long gone if I wasnt the age I am and am actually phasing out anyway.
    :
    That wasnt very helpful..she is confused by verb, noun, and adj. as far as how to tell
    which is which. I think the "a" in front is more helpful.
    Wasnt you worried that some weirdo might come back in while you werent there to monitor it? sm
    It just worries me that after we get everything set up will some weirdo go in and look around, get info off of your accounts, or go look at icky stuff on the web using your computer? My husband says his tech guys at his work said there is no reason why a tech person cant "fix" your problem by walking you through it. They say there is never ever a reason to authorize someone you dont know access to your computer. I am so confused! Really want this job, but dont want to risk my computer being an open door either.
    Wasnt that a rip. They must have called every person on every account to work. I cant possibly
    figure that mentality. PLUS we get nothing extra for weekends, nothing extra for  holidays ZIP. They overload the accounts and so we have no work. Why would they pay weekends or holidays when they play this game. Somebody is pocketing something but it AINT THE MTs. I hope every MT in that office inundates Mt. Laurel with complaints until they replaced the people that did this and not to mention their STUPID STUPID PICKY MQ point plan. That is a horrendous joke. Somebody up there needs to be removed and quickly.
    So you have also noticed the light and dark shades in text. I wasnt aware that it was like this when
    I bought it. Is there anything to make this better at all. I just bought this whole computer system with LCD screen and I guess I will call them and see what can be done or just get used to it. I like it but not so much having the text look like that. Have you spoken to anyone about yours.
    Wasnt' that post scary? Isn't it UNREAL?? Who cares if we type drugs wrong, right?
    I could go on and on about the STUPID mistakes MTs make - perfect dictators - just stupid lazy mistakes - wrong drugs and meds entirely - happens all the time. Forget dosages.  If doctors had to rely on this typed garbaged (used typed intentionally - transcribed doesn't fit), they'd kill most of us as patients.  And some MTs have an attitude about it? So frightening. But lets' give 'em bonuses and incentives to GET IT RIGHT!
    My post disappeared. I wasnt being disrespectful with the TV just tired and didnt proof before subm
    Sorry if I offended anyone when I saw it I had a good laugh with everyone else but still thought there was good advice in the post but I guess not -- my apologies if I offended and will watch my ShortHand lol.
