I really doubt they let them do actual work. It was probably practice stuff and just made them do X number of minutes of dictation or x number of hours and they just had to muddle through and type whatever they thought it was. I saw a few lines of what the husband typed and it made no sense from what I saw, so I think they just had to put in the time and guess, just to get a feel for what she does.

The first time he said it, I couldn't wait to see it too. nm

last time I used CS, supposedly you couldn't use expanders
in it but my ShortCut for Windows worked just fine. Also, supposedly there was a way to link InstanText to work in CS too but I don't know how since I didn't use that expander.
As far as the autotext files from Word...no, you can't import them into CS at all. You'll have to make an entirely new list within CS.
I've used my laptop to MT for about 5 years, full-time. Couldn't
I love being portable, plus I have a small working space. It's great transcribing on the deck (or at the beach) on nice days. Have never had any technical issues; there's always some sort of adapter thingie that's available for whatever comes up.
CMT is a waste of money & time. Times are different in the MT
industry anymore and having a CMT doesn't make a hill of beans difference. Companies are going to pay what they want to pay. Having a CMT isn't going to get you anymore money. That's a fallacy. There was a time when having a CMT would have gotten you a little better pay but those days are LONG gone. Save your money because that's all AAMT wants. AAMT are big corporation suckups, offshore suckups, and will suckup to anyone or any company that has BIG BUCKS! AAMT care NOT about the American MT, which became crystal clear with the announcement of their upcoming name change.
Sorry even if you are slow, 200 to 400 times per hour - no time -- NM

Sorry, don't have time. Gotta go run around the house a couple of times. nm

I personally will NOT spend too much time looking for a word. I listen 3-5 times if I still don'
it goes to the QA. I am getting paid 5-8cpl, depending upon the account, as an IC and don't have the time to spend too long looking. If I can't find something in 15 minutes I'm done. If I got paid more I might take more time to look, but at these line rates no WAY!
I also get no feedback from QA, or very rarely. We have one QA who is rude and puts down the MTs at every turn. It isn't easy for the MT either. If you aren't even listening to the dictation how do you even know WHY the MT didn't get the word, maybe the doctor is a total mush mouth and our ears are bleeding by the time we got to that word.

I watched also
Bruce Jenner seemed very stiff and almost afraid. I think the team that did a lot of the lifts should not have gotten better scores. The older judge is too hard on them since the celebs have never skated before. I may watch next week just out of curiosity to see who is going bye-bye.
Believe it or not...I just watched
for the very first time. I thought it was a very good movie. Anyone else enjoy it like I did? Thought Russell Crowe did an excellent job.
I have always watched ...
I've always noted what I can make an hour every where I've worked, so it seems strange that no matter what type of reports I have, I'm making around the same an hour... not much fluctation and is less than I can make at another company... (I work 2 different companies)...but I don't know how they could do it...
I watched CNN yesterday almost all day, just
willing those miners to walk out, but knowing that wasn't likely to happen based on the fact that there was no apparent debris that could be blocking them in. I celebrated with the families when word was circulated that 12 were alive. I called my DH at work and cried like a baby. I was numb after the news came that only 1 survived. I kept hearing stories about how the miners were coming to meet their families at the church, a Red Cross person said the miners were fighting about going to the hospital, that they wanted to see their families, and after the ambulance went out I waited and waited wanting desperately to see those men walk out.
I've Never Watched AI, Believe It or Not!!
Thanks so much for posting the link. He's got a fantastic voice. Even though I'm more than old enough to be his mother, that gray hair is SO sexy.
My sister watched our dog
I brought her home something from the place we visited.
I watched the prosecutor video
I watched the video with the interview with the Aruban prosecutor, which was on MSNBC videos in the internet..check it out, maybe it is still there. She said the father was arrested for interfering with an investigation by talking to the boys and telling them no body, no crime.
I watched a special on TV last night
about outsourcing to India and how much they are gaining financially from this situation. It showed some of the girls out shopping in nice malls buying three and four pairs of shoes at a time. Wish I could just buy one pair!! Bring our work back home!!!
Haven't watched the news all day
Boy, that family has been through so much. Sometimes you think you are getting more than you can endure, don't you?
I just watched the new episode. I hope
they can help Jeff out. Tempestt looks very pretty, and she was smart to take a break and go to school. Harvey rocks :)
Have you watched "How I Met Your Mother"?
It's on Monday's, I think. All my days run together, forgive me. It's not reality, but it's really refreshing. Good writing. I enjoy it.
Has anybody watched the TV show "Earl?"
ZZZzzzzz
nice to see some folks watched...sm
waiting to see how this progresses - hope it lasts as a reality show - seems like there is less *bickering* that with Dancing with the Stars, though I like that show too but NOT the judges there....*grin*
Haven't watched yet tonight (sm)
I taped it so I will watch it another time. I like Chris although he hasn't been as good the last couple of weeks. I love, love, love Taylor although he also has not really been his usual self the last few weeks. I also liked Mandisa. Paris and Katherine are great too. Oh, and Elliot. I DO NOT care for Kellie or Bucky, most especially Kellie. I think she is trying to play the cute down-on-the-farm girl like Carrie Underwood and, honey, she needs to stop already. Please, please let her be gone next. I'll settle for Ace being gone too though.
I haven't watched until tonight.
I would say that Kat has a really small range and tries to hit notes she just can't hit. The first and third song were just not good for her. Taylor aced two of the three. Levon is a good song and I think would have been good for him, but he seemed kind of nervous. All in all, he is the winner. Even Simon said so. He's adorable.
My husband and I watched The Notebook (sm)
We both teared up. He told me that he loved me like that, and that I was his Allie. My birthday was shortly thereafter and on my envelope he wrote "To My Allie." What a guy I'm married to. After 23 years of marriage, our love is still growing strong!
My daughter and I watched and cried, too. Seems so
unfair, but then I believe God needed him. For a barb to get him in between the ribs and directly into his heart, God said, "It is time."
LOL. You're right. It's been a while since I watched SNL. Thanks for the reminder.

I watched this video and sent it to my US Senator and also
.
I watched the game and have been a football fan for 40+ years.
excuse-making sore loser like you are.
Again, grow up.
Who watched American Idol tonight???
Cannot even believe that Bucky went home before Ace, Katherine, or Paris. Ace cannot sing at all! Bucky was not great, but it was definitely not his time to go! 
Oh give me a break. If had watched the show..sm
you would have known WHY they asked her to leave. She was arrogant, pushy, demanding, and interruptive to put it mildly. The show is WAY better off without her and her attitude of "better than thou."
has anybody been watching Arrested Development? I watched four shows in a row on FOX and it is
I don't know when it is on regularly but it's a great show and they ran four shows back to back and it was laugh out loud funny.
No, that wasn't the case. I watched the interviews on the news.
The very next day after Wilma, there were people standing in line complaining about no help and what were they going to do. One healthy, 20ish woman in particular had her kids with her standing in line. She was upset because she didn't even have water for formula. Now, I do not have a problem helping children out. I would give kids everything I had, but the mother should have had enough brains to fill water jugs and take care of her kids. Those kids are depending on her to do the right thing, and she didn't do it. Her manicure with fake nails certainly was nice, though. Talk about messed up priorities. There were healthy men there complaining about having no water or food for themselves, too.
Yeah, I've heard of her but never watched or listened to her.
I just wish I could get someone else on board, too.
Ever watched Jay Leno's segment "Jaywalking?" People don't know a lot

Oh, me too!!! When I got my first microwave (very expensive) we all watched the bacon cooking.

I'm in the same boat.. Sat on the idol website and watched reruns of

I once watched a retired FBI profiler who studied the case SM
and found evidence of a break-in from the basement window. He took pictures, explained his theory, showed how somewhat could have broken in, hid under a bed. He theorized that the intent was not to kill her, but to rape her. Probably someone who was the house that night. I forgot the profiler's name, but it was an interesting show. Very sad, sad case.
Oops, meant haven't watched it yet. Will watch tonight.

I just had one who couldn't
pronounce the simplest word, like catheter. He does cardiac caths all day every day, and can't even pronounce the simplest terms for his specialty! They shouldn't be able to graduate like that.
Saw my name and couldn't help myself here...
I'm among the 200-odd people who visit every day but don't wanna post because, well, it just doesn't seem right. But, seeing as I saw my name in black and white up on the screen, I just couldn't stop my fingers from typing.
I wicked miss all the jibber jabber, work related and nonwork related. I miss the usual faces, the usual arguments, the good times, the bad times, the times when I swore some people were on the rag...
I too got privately disciplined by the former MTStars staff for my potty mouth, got mean e-mails from people who called me a hick, and got awesome e-mails from some great people out there...and I miss it! All of it! The good, the bad, and the ugly.
We had our little domain name "stolen" a few years ago when we didn't renew it in a timely manner, so I kinda know what it's like. Except ours wasn't a business, just a place where friends and family that we left behind could see what we were up to. The web host kept all our hard work and wouldn't relinquish it because they claimed it was technically theirs...I'm not 100% sure, as I'm not the technical person of the household, but I know that basically we had to start from scratch. You kinda feel violated in a weird way.
I'll keep checking for the "other" MTStars to see if it's back up and running, but for now I'll just hang out here and wait. My personal stuff is all over cyberspace, so I'm not concerned about identity theft or anything like that. Who in Sam Hain would want my life anyway?!
you couldn't pay me enough.
I was offered a job managing an office that sent all the work to the Philippines. I couldn't bring myself to do it. The manager job from the other board (if that's the one you're referring to)sends their work to India. As tough as times are now, I could not bring myself to take jobs away from American MTs even if it meant a decent paying job for me. Still hoping Obama will tax the heck out of these companies that offshore, but not holding my breath.
I couldn't have written it better myself...
Those are exactly my thoughts. Didn't work for Spheris or Medquist, but did work for Heartland before MDI. I am so happy I came to MDI. I am sure they are not perfect, but I think they are better than a lot out there.
I couldn't get it friday either.
