There was another post that I replied to and it
is gone. I didn't say anything to warrant being deleted so don't know if someone else did, or they just got slap happy and deleted more than they intended.
But you replied to MY post
and called me a doubting Thomas because I doubted it could be done on 1 income. Now you're going to act confused?
Bunch of us replied to similar ? on Company board under DSG lines post..nm

Please see the post directly above yours.
While you are right that SSDI is different than SS, you forget that there are hundreds of children out there who have lost one or both parents and receive SS until age 18. They are certainly not retired so you're argument that it is SUPPOSED to be an account that helps people after they retired is inaccurate. It is, as originally stated, a program that was meant to help people who fell on hard times (not retirement).
As far as judging someone else, I'm just stating facts.
Like many other hardworking people on this board, I am not especially fond of watching my tax money be spent in a wasteful manner (I am not calling SS wasteful), and I certainly do not appreciate the people out there who are looking for ways around the system.
I could go on in this vein for a while but I've got to get back to my work. :)
Thanks to all who replied..
Thanks for your advice. I know I just need to search and search some more but sometimes I get soooo very down about the whole thing.. and to think that I left an MT position at a hospital near my home four years ago that I enjoyed but wanted/needed to go home to work.. Thing is.. about a year down the road, all their MTs went home to work for them--all making nice cash per line and benefits.. all local doctors.. waaahhhh.. I seem to make THE WORST choices..
 Guess I'll keep looking.. thanks again. 
Thank you to all of you who replied!!
I really appreciate all of you for taking the time to respond... Being new to the business, I was wondering if I was just going crazy to be a little hurt by my boss' behavior.
Thanks again, everyone!
I had already replied about this down below
I hadn't looked at the book very well...just got it today and I've been having a bad day. My son is sick and things have been rough around here. Thanks though...I got it figured out!
Thank you to everyone that replied!
I'm sure that he is going to be just fine. You know how it is when you get a dog, they feel like a child to you. I just worry a little, but he really is doing great. I can tell that he is happy. The first couple of days he was very lethargic and you could just tell by looking in his eyes that he didn't feel well. Now he has more energy and his eyes are brighter. His coat is shinier and feels soft compared to the *greasy* feeling it had before. He is great with my son, and has already become a part of this family after such a short time. I feel very lucky to have found such a great dog! Thanks to all of you for your kind words and advice. I'll let you know how Buster is doing after our next visit to the Vet next week.
THANK YOU to those that replied. sm
It seems that I need to have a serious discussion with my boyfriend. I agree that if the children don't want to eat what we are eating then they can fix something for themselves. I don't mind purchasing alternate food items every now and then for them, but that can become expensive. I also feel that it teaches them that they can have whatever they want whenever they want no matter what. I was raised that you didn't get your own "special" meal just because you didn't like what was being made for dinner.
Even though they are not my children, it is partly my money that is going into their picky little gullets. I feel that I should be able to enjoy a meal instead of feeling sick to my stomach from eating the same old things all the time. My boyfriend has different feelings about the matter. He feels guilty if he doesn't do what they want. It's really kind of scary sometimes how he babies them. Like I said before, his daughter is 18 years old and is AFRAID to use the oven. I can understand wanting your children to have the best and to be happy...and I can also understand how we, sometimes, as single parents can feel very guilty about things, but there comes a point when enough is enough!
I thank goodness sometimes that we don't live together yet. They live next door. It's actually very nice this way for now. I do love his children very much and I love him so very much, but there comes a time when children need to grow up a little and get out of that stage that everything is about them. I raised my son in a very different manner. Yes, he is spoiled, but not in such a way that he thinks the whole world revolves around him and everyone else is just supposed to fall in line.
I should say that they are great kids and are not snotty or rude. They make excellent grades in school and they treat me like gold. I don't want to sound like they are monsters. I think that I will sit down with him and tell him how I feel about this, and tell him that if we can't make some kind of compromise about dinners my son and I will be eating at home from now on and will come over after dinner. I am not going to keep contributing to the grocery bill for dinners if I can't have what I want to eat from time to time. I'm hoping he will agree.
thanks to those who replied
your answers helped me and confirmed what I had already been feeling. It's been a very, very difficult situation and you are right about his kids not having enough discipline. Thanks again.

You replied to mine below.
I didn't post this one, so it must be someone else.
That was a joke, because nobody replied for a while.
The site can be addicting, but of course you can run it in the background. If you have the foghorn on you can hear when a bottle comes in. :o}
At least they replied to your email ...
They never even acknowledged receipt of my resume with over 20 years of experience in acute care.
To person who replied about TRXinc OR.
You stated that the "owner is a lunatic". I recall I left it to your discretion to elaborate on that, but YOU DIDN'T. Okay, I admit, I'm freaking out a tad. Please at least privately e-mail me. 
I replied back with the address to the

Thanks to those who replied! *SM* for free BOS-2 e-book downloads!!
I want to thank all of you for the help. I did get through the testing, so keep your fingers crossed.
I found a website, but wasn't sure if I would be permitted to post it. However, if you will just Google AAMT Book of Style free download, several sites will come up. It's the BOS second edition. These are shareware sites so just use caution. HTH!
Thanks to all who replied to my Emachine question. For those who had a positive response, can I ask
nm
Boss sent me a nasty email, I replied and proved she was wrong, and yet no apology. sm
This is not the first time -- she's the first to blast you if she thinks you didn't make your line count, work when you should, etc., but if she makes a mistake, she NEVER says "I'm sorry," or "I was wrong" ... nada! Most of the time, I just blow it off. The pay is great, the accounts good, and sufficient work, but other times, I wonder if it is worth it. I suppose in today's job market, I should just be glad to be employed ... maybe I'm just greedy in also wanting to be treated with professionalism, respect, and courtesy.
Not sure if I even have a point -- guess I just needed to vent a bit. Thanks for "listening." 
oops, replied in the wrong place, please see my reply under the original message. nm

I replied this morning and was deleted. I asked if you're spending a lot of extra time on the ex
work. If so, I see no reason why you can't charge her by the hour for what you do. It could me maybe $100 a week insted of every 2. I do think that is a rip-off and you're being taken for your generosity.
Yes DIRECTLY FROM THE ......nm
What I would tell you directly sm
I know you want a better job and for whatever reason, it just has not happened...YET.
Anything worth having is worth waiting for. Up to a point, the longer you wait the better it will be. Though, after a while it seems useless, it really isn't.
I had a wonderful job up until summer of 2007. Like a fool, I had $$ in my eyes and I took a job at 10 cpl. It was hard work and the line counts weren't great, but then they started to regularly run out of work. That was year ago this month. I started actively looking for work and I had offers, but I didn't take them because the grass is usually greener over the septic tank, rather than on the other side of the fence. I have been burned and didn't want to be so again. I sent out one last resume just before Christmas, but didn't think anything would come of it. I was wrong. My gift for Christmas turned out to be my dream job, so I quit the one I had.
In June, the one I quit in December begged me to come back and I accepted, because as a PT job, it would be perfect, and it has been. The boss I disliked is gone and a great gal is in her place. There is also a great deal of work.
I have the same time in you do, 15 years. I have waited much of that time for a full time job and a part time job to come together in a way that meshes as perfectly as these two do. All good and wonderful things come to those who wait.
I am wishing YOU all good things and soon. There is a company out there wishing for a hard worker, looking for their needle in a haystack and that needle is YOU. Best wishes and good luck!
I was not meaning you directly at all
guess I was just trying to get across the point that in other parts of the states southerns are protrayed as such. I am white, my husband is black and my mixed daughter was an English major in college here in the south and an accountant now, She, along with me, shutter when we hear ebonics. Like where you live and where I live outsiders would probably not believe with all the diversity, huh?
Jan -- I type directly into the EMR
Your doctor can still dictate but you will type directly into the EMR but you need to do it in house unless they allow you access from home -- which they might. But it is hard to charge per line as there will be some "normals" that they put in. So I do it hourly at the clinic. Have done this twice now for clinics. The first one, only one doc did the dictation, then another started and pretty soon all five were doing it and I had to quit as they needed someone full-time and I have my other own accounts. I did it just to help them out at first and get out of the house. But they did not like the hours they spent after seeing the patient doing the charting. So one never knows. Good luck but don't burn your bridges. Charge them reasonably but not out of anger.
Wow, this must be directly for a facility. Sm msg
Very hard to imagine an MTSO paying that type of money, although it is well worth every penny! Good luck! Grab it quick!
Even though IC directly for the hospital,
it sounds like you do not handle all of their transcription needs (in other words, providing the staffing, with the hospital being your account). For MTSOs who do have hospital accounts, I have seen the rates varying between about 18 cpl and 25 cpl (I imagine this is dependent on several factors, such as how the lines are counted, volume of dictation, and geographical location, among other things). For clinic accounts it also varies, but usually at a lower rate, about 12 cpl to 18 cpl, again depending on several factors.

working directly for rad office
If you took a position working from home directly for a small doctors' office (5 docs) with no ESL and you supplied your own computer and internet, what is the lowest line rate you would accept? There is a good chance they may provide benefits too, including medical insurance. This would be for radiology only with mammos, x-rays, CTs, diagnostics, ultrasounds and no MRIs.
Thanks in advance for comments.
I work directly for a hospital in the NE,
the list is provided to me by the hospital.
Hi, Paul. Appreciate hearing from you/him directly.) SM
Anon, I also love this product; Paul and Ben did a great thing producing it and I'm grateful. I can't say why I like the platform so much except that it pretty much doesn't make me think about it. The work's in the reports, not fussing with the system. With one big exception as far as I'm concerned--it really needs a wild card or at least a better search feature for practitioner's names. That's often a major time waster.
I also like it so much because I find I'm faster on VR. It turns out I have a knack for editing, while I'm just a mediocre typist; others are obviously discovering the opposite. I certainly don't feel the disconnect from the dictator's meaning described by another editor. I confess, although many "hearing-it-wrong" mistakes are made by eScription (enough to make me needed), I've come to have a very healthy respect for its ear and listen very very carefully before overriding its reading.
That said, I'm unfortunately soon moving on to another, untried platform. My old account was offshored, like other eScription accounts with my employer before. I've heard the profit margin with eScription is just too low to compete with local editors. Sad reality???
I have my headphones plugged directly into

I plug my headset directly...
...into the computer in the jack that you plug speakers into.
You might need to bypass the USB hub and plug directly in. sm
I have had this problem with other USB devices. I just switch around until I find one that will work in hub. I don't use EMDAT so don't know if that's the problem. Maybe someone else can shed some light on this.
That cpl is for contractors working directly with doc.
I made 14 cpl (65 char including spaces) when I had my own account.
My DD is a social worker and says that she dictates directly into VR
and the report is on her desk when she gets back to the office. She said everyone in her department loves it!
Anyone else have the family pet who has to sit directly on your foot pedal? My dog (who is an 80-lb
black lab) has done this all week and will not come out from under my desk. Don't know if it's the weather or what, but it is making me crazy!
I take it you've also been lied to directly by supervisor?
I'd go directly to college, which I've done and I'm in my late 40's too.
A high school diploma these days will buy a cup of coffee and a donut, unfortunately.
You need to email me directly to admin@mtstars.com

Do a search of your C drive for it. I have mine placed directly - sm
in my C drive but usually it is in some obscure place within a file, within a file, etc. Look for "autorecovery" and see what comes up. Then the file will not be named "Smith ltr" or whatever but with letters and numbers, go by the date modified column (list details) for the date and time of the file. Hope this helps.
Since when does the child support go directly to the kids? lol!

Was told working directly in MS Word...sm
when I asked what the platform was, that's what she said.
Now I see why I have to have unlimited long distance, and a second phone line!

Tick Formatted Text directly about the with box. sm
Any time you're adding formatting like bold or italics you need to tick the formatted text option to save that formatting.
You can have Express Scribe download directly for you.
Under Settings, Automatic Incoming, click Add and use the FTP info you've been given to set up. Make sure your file type is checked. Also, one complaint with this program is that it does not download .dss files.
You can call Mr. L directly. I just did and left a message.
