dead brain regarding digital!
Trying to switch all my clients to digital, but first I need some help with it! Using the free ES wav player. One of the drs are going to email me the files and the other is going to use a FTP site. I dont know the first thing about transcribing files "digitally" Any instructions would be really appreciated!
Thanks ya'all!
Brain surgeons and the U.S. President take vacations; so can you. The world won't stop if you do!
I needed the morning entertainment. My Monday will now be a better day!

It's Monday
I don't know about the rest of you, but I come here to gain insight, vent, laugh, commiserate, learn, and share. Maybe we can start the week by ignoring the few that come on here to attack, belittle and chastise. Constructive criticism is great as are differences of opinion. Isn't that what this site is supposed to be all about? Name-calling and bullying are what we teach our children not to do. When it happens TO our children, we tell them to ignore it.
Monday was my day too!
Hey all...
Yes, it was a bad Monday. I also was told they were replacing me with a service. She had said that it would be easier with having the same service do the two doctors that I did, and would that be okay with me. It made me sad because yes, I count on that money to make ends meet, but rather than beg and plead, I said okay, and she said it will be a month before changing over. I was just hoping there might be a way I can counter offer and keep this account, but I haven't a clue how I might access the hospital system's dictation as an IC....they are wav files. I do have my Start/Stop player. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I try to believe in the philosophy of when one door closes, another window opens....and that is a good way to think, but right now I am very depressed because this economy and surviving is getting so very tough. Thank you....ps, I have been doing MT for 27 years now, so pretty late to start over elsewhere.
You will have paycheck on Monday 711/05

Try again Monday night.
I'll keep trying.
Wow, a party on a Monday? Can I come?? (sm)
I'll bring food too; I'm a good coo, I swear I am!.
Monday Goals
I thought that it would be good if we use each week as a chance to improve ourselves. We can each set a goal (it doesn't matter if it is big or small) and then we will share it with everyone to get us more motivation to complete it.
Here is my goal for this week:
I will do the dishes at least once this week.
A little background on this goal: I hate housework. I don't want SO to feel like I take advantage of him so I am going to try to make more of an effort around the house.
Anyone else with a goal and background for it?
Monday blooper
It was dictated as Allergies: Sulfones.
I transcribed "Allergies: Cell phones" . . . . until I realized what I'd done.
Somebody beat me with a wet noodle!
It is NOT Monday, darn it!!!!
But it's going to be one of those days! I had a doctor give the date of service as 4-8-05, and now I have one of the very worst ESLs ever dictating a colonoscopy, and he says the throat was sprayed with Xylocaine! Think these guys have been hitting the eggnog a bit early?
Monday - I will lose an account
I just did the stupidest thing. I could cry but it would not help. I will lose this account due to my carelesness and not thinking. I accidentally just erased two "undone" tapes and kept two "finished" tapes. So on Monday I have to tell the doctor and if I were them I would fire me. They have been my account for 4 years but have been patient with me at times through some personal problems -- yucky divorce -- and I do a good job at a very reasonable rate but I would not blame them if they fired me. I just want to take myself out and beat myself silly. But there is nothing I can do right now and so oneward and upward -- I guess. But this will hurt as it is my largest account and I am a small MTSO so I will be out pounding the pavement for something.
Thanks for listening.
Oprah show Monday-have you let yourself go?? sm
I must admit this is me ever since I started working at home 6 years ago. Too easy to do. 6 months since a decent haircut, too many kids to look after and too much work to get done. I thought others might appreciate thesubject matter. Happy watching.
Oops..Monday=money

Monday's season finale
I taped Sunday's show and watched it tonight, and immediately watched tonight's show. I can't believe what Izzie did. I certainly was glad I could buzz thru the boring part about planning the prom so I could get to the important parts. I thought Denny was safe, but not so fast. Very tender how what's-his-name intern picked Izzie up and held her at the end. I'm furious that Meredith and Derek are back at it. She's weird, self-absorbed, childish, ugly, and slutty, so get over her already, Derek! You so don't deserve your wife!
Glad I don't get overly involved in mere TV shows like some people, hehehe.
Thx for the laff on this dreary Monday! :) nm

well, I interviewed for an in-house job Monday
She said by today, Friday, she would let me know if I got the job. She told me I was high on the list of being hired, but she was still interviewing. It is already nearly noon and I have not heard a word. I looked at the job board and the ad for an MT is gone. Is that bad news for me?
Monday night pet loss ceremony
So very sorry for your loss. Here's a great link:
http://www.petloss.com/ceremony.htm
Every Monday, people all over the world remember their pets. You can add your pet's name to their list.
Here is their prayer:
PRAYER: God, Creator of all living things, we ask that as we light our candles, the healing warmth of love will flow into the brokenhearted who are tending their ailing pets.
Give to them Your strength and comfort.
We also pray that the soft glow of light will part the clouds of grief and sorrow to surround our furbabies at the Bridge.
May excitement REIGN SUPREME as wagging tails, ecstatic purrs and flapping feathers feel our gentle touch once again.
May they know the gratitude we hold in our hearts for their faithfulness and gift of unconditional love as they are forever remembered.
We are temporarily separated for only a short while.
The silver cord that connects us through time and space can never be broken.
AMEN.
Yup. Sun-Thurs. I do the Monday holidays. It's fine with me.

We were $2.42 on Monday - shot up to $2.99 today and expected....sm
to go well over $3/gallon because of the pipeline distribution problem. The governor has declared a state of emergency and is urging folks to not drive anymore than necessary while they're getting emergency shipments of fuel in.
How's your work load going Monday, January 9?
Just wondering if we are all in the same boat, sinking because of India oursourcing.
I believe it is next Monday, the 19th, as the kids have off school for it.

Try the Hewlett-Packard site. On Monday they...sm
had computers with XP on sale.

That would have been Daddy Bush.

Monday night- Friday, and either Saturday or Sunday, or both -sm
I usually goof off Saturday (or do very minimal work Friday night and Saturday) and then regret it and have have about 130 minutes to do on Sunday, does not make for a fun day.
Someone should have told our President that...nm
nm
Well, I'm glad YOU are not the president...
The same people who wanted to tar and feather GWB for not piecing together some snippits of information before 9/11 and tried to say that he should have seen it coming are the same people who criticize him for stepping into Iraq to remove a dictator who even Bill Clinton said needed to be removed. If you think terrorists weren't conducting business in Iraq? You are naive. If another attack were traced back to weapons or nukes passed off in Iraq, you would be blaming Bush for ignoring all that was known about Saddam and the danger of leaving him in power. In a post 9/11 world, with all that was before him BEFORE the war as far as intelligence, he did the only thing he could do. I think in the long run it's going to work out in Iraq, but again, that takes us back the patience thing. I've got it, you don't. History shows that Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither will a new Iraq.
The president has it in for you, yeah, that's it!
Blaming other people because you refuse to keep up with the world and desperately want to hold on to a job that's clearly on its way down the toilet is the exact attitude that ends up getting nowhere in life, but that's always someone else's fault too, right? What a defeated, running in place attitude you have! See you at Walmart applying for the prestigious greeter job (that will be the president's fault too).
LMAO
That president is such a wimp.
You would think he'd be as far away as possible. I miss President Palmer.
The individual who is now the president of
the insurance company association (whatever it is called) is Mark Racicot, who was Bush's right hand man and head of the RNC. They do not care about the welfare of people, just their own pockets.

Writing to president sm
It's a good idea but he's been talking about it for a long time and doubt he'd agree, his mind is made up. What has to come across is the confidentiality issue which I believe is another moot point. It's very sad and I think has been in the making by the hierarchy for years. Doctors don't care period. They have families, hate dictating, would love to have it off their backs. I guess what we have to do in response is be discreet and not tell them anything we don't want the world to know. Sad, sad,sad!
My email to the President
I wrote this email to the President this afternoon. I cry each time I read it. I know I may have a few errors in the punctuation but I was very emotional when I wrote it. *Please note I am a newer Transcriptionist hence the money comment.
Dear Mr. President,
I am a medical transcriptionist. I just got laid off this morning from my job due to our largest client taking their work back in-house and sending some offshore. I have worked 3rd shift for a year for not very much money. I have sacrificed family time, personal time, money, and my health. I have rearranged our family schedule and my body clock. I needed to work and did what I had to do. I worked the job I could find. It was not much money but that money paid my mortgage, put food on our table, paid our auto loans, and credit cards. There are very few jobs out there.
What do you suggest I do now? What are you going to do about offshoring? How am I going to tell my husband? I voted for you. How are you going to help me, (Name) the Transcriptionist? Do I now have to work for an overseas transcription company. That seems very un-American to me.
We pay our bills, we are good people, we work hard but it does not seem to matter. I'm a tired American. I'm tired of working so hard for so little. I'm tired of not making ends meet. I'm tired of being told to be patient and it will turn around. I'm tired of the rest of the world taking advantage of our generosity. I'm tired of my husband driving a (Corporate name) truck all day and night and showing very little for his efforts. I'm tired. I'm tired. I'm tired.
Well, I guess I can get some sleep now because I don't have to work tonight.
So Mr. President, my policy questions for you are:
1. When are we going to take our jobs back and take care of our own people?
2. What am I going to do for work now?
Thank you to whoever reads this. It may not be seen by the President but I feel better having told him about yet one more struggle of an American family.
michelle for president!!!! nm

Ok, thanks. I guess I don't realize the volume of applicants they get. I will call Monday A.M.!!

Three words to discribe Mr. HIS President....
"Male Shovenist Pig"!
The nerve of some people amaze me. Anyone know if he is Indian?
Three words to discribe Mr. HIS President
"Male Shovenist Pig"!
If you cannot even take the time to spell correctly what you are describing, how can anyone take your comments seriously. "chauvinist".
"discribe" How about describe?
My kind? The blame goes far beyond our president.
He should have finished his first battle before he started another. He has done nothing to ensure that our safety is any better than it was pre-911. If anything, it is worse.
