Its not the animal lovers fault about abortion and abuse of innocent children, it's the fault...
of our government to allow such a law. The innocent dogs being killed over the so-called rabies roundup vs. shortage of "beef" have no government to help protect their rights to live so the humans have to step in and protect their rights and the humans should protect the human's rights as well to live, but when a government passes laws, etc., you can only fault the government; afterall, they have the final decision.
it IS the mayor's fault and it IS Kathleen Blanco's fault
to assess the potential damage and what help they have immediately available in their area. They are then responsible for contacting the feds for more aid BEFORE the fact if they truly know their geography, economics, and have a weather advisory board on hand for such purposes, which they DO.
The mayor and the governor did not do any of this and now as the general consensus of the liberal loonies always turns, if you drop the ball and don't take responsibility for what you're expected to know how to do in your elected office, BLAME BUSH.
Stupid is as stupid does.
I think I would look for another job. Doesnt seem right

No doesnt sound harsh
I agree with you to an extent about threatening with that, and I have informed family members that could be done if he does not get help and endangers them in some way. They of course say they know, I think they are trying to handle it without hurting the kids any further. He has not physically hurt them just scared them which is bad enough! Thanks
High IQ doesnt = good MT.

Link doesnt say if this can be done at home.

Above poster doesnt know how to use antibark
My dogs quickly learned when they had collar on and what that meant. They didn't bark. Take collar off when you want them to alert you. Believe me, they know the difference between collar on and collar off. Mine even knew the difference between dead battery and charged battery. When they would bark with collar on, I knew it was tiime for recharge.
Then hope your boss here doesnt end up

9pin doesnt work for me
There are issues with it stopping and starting. The USB works best in V8. I work in V8 and V6 still so I have both pedals :(
I still use 2. It looks better and doesnt get confused with abbr. periods.
I wouldnt change to 1 unless the AAMT Book of Style rules on it and I dont believe they have. I could be wrong on that. If anyone knows, please let me know.
Another thing I have noticed people doing is not putting a comma before the and in a list. I was always taught to use the comma but some people dont.
advil doesnt touch mine
I used to get this all the time it drove me crazy. It felt like a constant burning band. I was hold my arms up by my neck and shoulder. Is there anyway you can find something to support your arms while you type? I bought a chair with arms, and i put a 2 x 4 board across the arms and rest my elbows on that and let my fingers do the work, not my neck. I also have a split keyboard. When the pain was severe, like yours, I would get up and put a warm wash cloth and sort of massage it into my neck every couple of hours while stretching, and then apply some icy hot so it really penetrated into it. As a poster stated, xanax works and anything that relaxes the muscles, Soma, or Flexeril, ativan, buspar (antianxiety), on top of the massage, heat n stretches. I also cut out the coffee and sugar because i'm an anxious person and I clench constantly. That should get you through until you find away to rest the arms while working. I know with this job, one part of our body will suffer, either arms, wrists or hand joints, even neck and shoulder. I wish they'd invent something to take the strain off of every muscle for us gals who have to sit here day after day! Anyways, I feel your pain, hang in there.
Is there any spyware you can use that doesnt interfere with all your other programs at all. I have
XP and service pack 2 etc etc just about all the programs you can have and Norton so dont know if they have Spyware in them or not. I have office also.
I wouldnt go get him. Just treat him tonight even if he doesnt have it
That may keep him from getting it. Head lice is a nuisance but not hard to get rid of. I wouldnt sweat it. You should change their sheets, etc...
I disagree...just because you are in a certain profession doesnt mean you cant have time off..sm
My mom has been an RN for over 40 years now and I have several family members in some of the other professions you mentioned above. A certain profession does not mean you have to work certain days/holidays. If you have vacation time you are entitled to use it whenever you wish. I used to work in a physicians office for 10 years and I always put my vacation time in for my two weeks in December in January. Other employees put their time in for summer. So while they are out having fun with their time off in July I am not crying and moaning because they are having fun in the sun while I work to cover them. It is the same thing no matter when your time off is scheduled. It has nothing to do with what field you work in. If you want time off at Christmas be a little more organized and schedule your time off way in advance. And no I dont think I am the only one with a family who would like to be off for the holidays. I just make it a priority to take my vacation at that time. You enjoy your time when you want and I will enjoy my time when I want.

It's our fault
I saw an article yesterday (can't remember which newspaper) that said that. It's America'a fault there's global warning, its (whichever gods) punishment to the US.
Not my fault!
Only because the bashings start immediately after I post and then I react - sorry for being human!
My fault
Next time honey, we will turn on the lights so everyone can see it. Also, I would appreciate all the music turned down so I can hear you say to me "Oh Frank, my goodness you are so......" I just love it when you talk to me like that. For that my dear, you will get a bonus in your check next pay.
Yes of course my FAULT
Yes I looked up words, Yes I did my research, YES I HAD A BAD ESL WHO DIDN'T SPEAK ENGLISH !!!!!!!!! That is WHY
My fault sm
I also usually stay off the boards, but I totally forgot tonight. That's OK
It's not the dog's fault....
nm
Right...and of course, it's someone else's fault you were
Still can't post, still don't get it and still haven't learned to just stay out of the conversation as obviously they're not looking for your opinion...rude and mean as ever. Of course...that's just an OPINION. blah blah
How was it my fault?????
I was sitting there minding my own business. He walks over and blurts out my test results. Exactly what should I have done? Put tape over his mouth? I had no idea what he was going to say before he said it. I am the injured party here who is out over $100.00. I have to type an entire day to make $100.00.
It's always our fault
I learned a long time ago that no matter what, any mistakes made will always be blamed on the MT. If something doesn't get dictated by the doc, the excuse is inevitably either "it was lost by the transcriptionist" or "that Transcriptionist isn't typing all my dictations."
I used to greatly respect doctors - and then I became an MT and started actually having to work with them. Boy did my opinion change - and fast!
Lu..........thank-you. If I have a fault it sm
is being blunt. But, I am not going to sit here and beat around the bush and sugar coat things. I have seen too many whiny, complaining MTs in my career to cater to that stuff any longer. If you have been in the business a long time you know what I mean as do all of the others who have done this for a long time.
Maybe the bluntness comes from working on production for years (which I like) or whatever, but I don't have time to baby and soothe. If people don't want to hear how the business is then don't listen (most don't listen anyway).
The Mts who are successful in this business, working on production, know that we don't have time for the nonsense! I especially don't have time for the folks who are complaining because they have TOO much work and have to do different accounts, when there are people out there begging for work! Kind of reminds me of people who complain of having no money, need money and the overtime is there, but they just don't want to work it today! GEESH!
that doesnt sound right. I have downloaded mine I know 5 times
Maybe you should talk to a different person.
You should be able to download the player again with your password. I have had mine for 5 years and never had any problem reinstalling it. I know I have installed mine 5 times.
I think they will see these newbies run faster and harder than we ever did if something doesnt suit.

Do you honestly think MQ doesnt send work to India, etc.

I guess it depends on which office you get switched to now doesnt it.

Why dont you stick your $1.18 where the sun doesnt shine lady.

I think it is a 65 character line without spaces but doesnt that mean you have to type a lot more to
get your lines in so you really arent making 9.5 cpl in fact right. I am not sure I understand when you dont get paid for spaces how much you really lose from that. Is it 20% a report or what percentage do you lose. If a report is 100 lines with spaces then what do you really get paid for on those 100 lines without spaces. I think that is what I mean. I am just tring to figure out how much longer you have to work to get your lines in at 1000 lines a day without spaces versus 1000 lines a day with spaces. Seems it would take quite a bit longer.
I don't fault you for being pessimistic
because the both the companies and our own so-called professional organization have trodden on us for so long that most MTs really don't think there is any other way.
Fortunately, nothing I have planned requires the "companies" to listen to anything MTs have to say, "whining" or nicely.
And nothing I have planned requires cooperation from the beneficiaries of cherry picking with wonderful accounts and who are happy with their jobs.
The essence of the situation is that services are much more in danger of extinction in this age of technology and the global economy than are domestic MTs. The majority of them are on borrowed time.
The companies don't have the assets that are critical to the future of the profession. The offshore companies and their transcriptionists certainly don't.
The only ones who do are the MTs with the skills to do the work that can't be done by VR or offshore. Those are the only assets that aren't commodoties. Those skills can't be replaced by a software robot, a matchbook-school new graduate, or an offshore wannabe cherrypicking-transcriptionist to do the easy "Queen's English, theatrical elocution" dictation.
The MTs are the ones in possession of the assets that are critical. The skills are the asset, not the job. The job can be sent offshore. The company can fire you from a particular job. But the critical assets are still in the hands of the MTs, who have the power to shape their future by harnassing and directing those assets in a positive way.
Why is the MT's fault? Apparently he
is being allowed to do that by his supervisor.
It isn't any MT's fault -- given opportunity, then those who really want the money will make it.
I know that for myself I work my schedule. I do work extra quite a bit of the time -- at the request of my supervisor. They ask me specifically to work more.
Surely, you are not suggestion that I say, "Oh, I'm so sorry. I just can't work any extra. You see, MT Mary Poppins will get huffy because she will think I'm stealing her lines and then I will be called a greedy MT so I should forfeit money to be made for myself because of how SHE feels." ???
If you TRULY think that is reasonable, you are going to be miserable as long as you are in this job.
If I am asked to do more, I will do it as long as I am working in this business. It's NOT unfair to anyone. It is my opportunity to make money. Nothing is unfair about that.
Sheryl, I'm sure it's my fault. SM
I am terrible at explaining. I wish somebody else would look over my instructions and help you, because I promise, it works.
And this is AAMT's Fault????
Come on, get real! All AAMT did with that list is publish what JCAHO already said was not to be used because it is on their list of dangerous abbreviations. It's all about patient safety and if you haven't read up on that, it IS the hot topic in healthcare these days, so much that studies are done every year by the National Institute of Medicine. AAMT may have faults, but have your facts straight about who causes the changes and why before you spout off.
like its your fault he has to work in the day?.....
tell his sorry ______ to grow up and be a man. you wanna better yourself and make a better life for your family. you go girl!
Giving up? That's their fault then!
Sorry, but where survival is concerned, you don't "give up". There's always a way. I've scooped dog pens, I've delivered phone books, I've cleaned houses. That's a lame excuse and people like that don't get any pity from me.
I eventually went back to school and am out of debt, own my home and both my kids are college educated, with me being the next to graduate from a major university.
I've been kicked in the butt financially, health-wise (lost my job, got fired because I had cancer and chemo made me "throw up too much"), divorce due to domestic violence.
I never gave up. I will never give up.
Life is YOUR responsibility. If you give up, that's up to you but there's no one to blame but yourself.
this comes off that it is her fault this happened - sm
because of her fence. I disagree. The pitbulls would have gotten in the fence themselves regardless if they were intent on attacking, and any dog that wants to get out from a fenced area can if it is intent on doing so as well. I had an adult husky that bent up the wire enclosure on a split rail fence about 3 inches, and squeezed under the fence and got out. He saw deer. It took 45 minutes to catch him, so never say never about letting your dogs out, accidents/things happen every day.
MT and practice are both at fault sm
Have had this done to me more than once. The PT office should have said, no way, if she approached them. She should have said, no way, if they approached her. You have been hurt, and it's not only common courtesy but a stab in the back. Keep them as a client until you get really busy with others and then drop them. I would not keep her, not for one moment. I had to let go of both a friendship,, a client and an employee twice because I do not tolerate this type of sinister behavior. You should not either. Fool me once, shame on me; foll me twice, shame on me. You should be flaming mad, you have every right, you were scammed by both.
