In Reply to: Googled the company and could find no website for it. Weird. - nm

When this whole bruha-ha started, I Googled the name as well. The site was up and working, carrying a glowing endorsement from EMDAT as well. Guess the owner decided to take it all down.

When I was active in the....sm
...local chapter of the then-AAMT, I would always say, "If you're a student, you're the most important person in the room today." :)
I believe Active Words can do that.

Unfortunately, we can't please everyone although we try. We run Active X controls
and a few cannot see the left column and we have offered a number of ways to get the left menu to appear. Beyond that, we are unable to help. Administrator
what is the active ingredient?

chipmunks still active...

Should have mentioned in initial post that I have deleted, redownloaded the new EP, and when that didn't work, tried an older version - no luck.  Even the older version is playing just my .dvf files fast.  I think there's a gremlin in my system trying to drive me crazy. 


Thanks so much for your suggestions though! 


Anybody else?


The Active Topics page contains
a drop down at the top where you can sort number of days and specific board.
check out Active Words sm

It's like a word Expander for "the rest of" your computer. I use it to automate repetitive Windows- or Word-based tasks that would otherwise take a lot of Keystrokes or mouse clicks.

I create shortcuts so that I can type just a few keystrokes to perform any of the more tedious administrative parts of my work.

For example, typing "sendlog" will, for me, automatically create an e-mail message that sends my line count log for the day where it needs to go.

It's really hard to explain, so I hope you don't mind if I just refer you to the web site.
looks like it was an active website at one point, sm
now it is just parked by earthlink. www.jesterstouch.com
State Boards are Active Now!
Click the Menu on your left.

Thanks,
MTStars Support Team.
They generally are very active dogs who can develop
behavior problems.  Please do a Google search.  He should be excercised daily.  Again, please do a google search and learn as much as you can.  Talk to breeders, trainers, etc.  In the long run you (and he) will be much better off if you take the time now to research and spend the necessary money to learn training techniques.  You might find that it boils down to daily long, structured walks and then play.  You will do great!  Good luck! 
Could you tell me what the active inflammatory lymph nodes mean?
I had a CT abdomen and pelvis last year because I was having pain from Crohn's disease. I have swollen lymph nodes then. I had no other symptoms as in no other lymph nodes that were enlarged, etc. So they did a followup CT a year later, which happened to have been this week. I haven't gotten the results yet. I'm wondering what your active inflammatory lymph nodes mean? Is it normal for some to be enlarged consistently?
The State Board is no longer active - nm

Make sure you are looking in "All Active Templates."

30 hours divided by four days equals seven-hour days. Most of us have to work pretty much every day
.
You proved my point.. Most active ON RECORD, which is but a blip in

Permethrin and Imidacloprid are active ingredients in Advantix
Says even having a cat bathe a doggie sibling could cuz problems.


Working 6/hour days, 5 days/week I make
$42,000.00, but the work is there to make more if I want to.  I'm in the southeast. 
I am aware of the religion board, just thought main one would be more active...thanks anyway. nm

2000 low days, 4000 busy days
Did 43,000 lines last month.   6 doctors. 
You can "make a living" if you work 16-hr days, 7 days
and if you rarely buy anything but food and the barest essentials in clothing. My balancing act is so precarious that all it'll take is one of life's little disasters (rent increase, sick pet, major car repair) to pull the rug out from under me. Not a good feeling at all.
If the state boards are no longer active, why haven't they been removed so people don't waste

550-650 lph on average. Some days more, some days less. It all depends. nm

How? By working 12-hr days 7 days/week?
;LKJ
In SEVEN days?

$30 in 7 days?  You've got to be kidding, right?  I could see $30 in 7 hours being bad, but in 7 days?  Either way, it's still not even minimum wage.  Aren't you worth at least twice minimum wage per hour?  Granted, there is always a period of adjustment when starting a new account, but I won't even stick around that long if I can't even make minimum wage.  Wow.  That's all I can say.  I think you know in your heart what you need to do.  You are worth so much more.


I've been frustrated myself because I'm supposed to do so many lines per week.  Monday and Tuesday were no work because the weekend people did it all.  Wednesday was technical problems.  Now I'm scrambling to get my lines in by the end of business today to reach my weekly line quota and get a half decent paycheck.  I was basically on call for them for free for three days.


There's not much of interest to me on the Job Seeker's board either.  Heck, maybe I'll take the next month off work and fool around for the rest of the summer until I can find something else.  I should have backed up paychecks coming in to last until then.  Good luck with your dilemma.


yes, just last few days.
Thought it was my computer - it acts like it can't keep up w/the typing and I'm not THAT fast...;) Now that I know it isn't just me though, I think I'll give them a call tomorrow if it happens again.
I think my MT days are over.....sm

I took a Federal job last year and kept one small, very part-time MT account. I got a 2-step promotion yesterday (lots more money), so I'm going to drop the MT account. This will be my first experience as a supervisor/work group leader. I'll probably still check in here, I actually use a lot of the grammar and software info. I loved MT, but the benefits and job security were a good move for me and my family. Best of luck to all.


Most days I truly like my job very much; however,
today is not one of those days. After listening to dictators on speaker phones, chewing gum, and ESL's, today I don't like my job a whole bunch. Tomorrow will probably be different, though.
I had one of those days too.
Very draining. Hope it gets better for you.
It will still be there in 2 days
when I go on to work. They let it happen constantly. They are just glad someone is dumb enough to do the idiots the cherrypickers skip continuously. The funny part is one does get used to them although they still SUCK.
Unfortunately, I had it for four days...nm
.
I think I will try it a few more days.....
If I just can get it, then I will try another ergonomic style..
I think after two days..
I am getting the hang of it. I still hit a few keys wrong here and there, but I think I will end up loving it too! I have noticed that my hands dont ache at the end of the day and thats a +++!!
Does anybody else ever have days that you just
absolutely depise transcription? Usually I enjoy my job, but today McDonald's, Hardee's, Pizza Hut, cleaning toilets, etc. is looking better.
Ever have one of those days
When you've typed an entire report and don't recollect having done it.  You check it and it's correct.  Frightening.  My mind is elsewhere this morning.  Too much caffeine (shh, don't tell my coffeepot). 
Having one of those days 2 days in a row!!!

  Have had the same ESL the last 2 days who mumbles incoherently until the end when he suddenly puts the phone near his face and rattles off the last sentence crystal clear before hanging up.  I would love to grab him by the _____ (pick a body part) and ask him very politely to please ennunciate and speak just a little bit louder. 


Thank you.  Done venting.  Carry on. 


 


Have you ever had one of those days?
When it seems like your fingers are not cooperating? So far this evening, I have misspelled somewhere close to 6 of every 10 words. thank goodness for spell checkers! I seem to be hitting extra letters every time I turn around!

Some days just go like this.

My 19 yo son can't find his keys and boy, is he upset.  He, dad and I search the house for the keys.  He knows where he put them last night, but they're not there.  I push furniture out, shake all the clothes that he has lying around his room, search and search, along with the others.  Now, 1-1/2 hours later, 1 hour late for work, he finds them.......

some days
 so where were they????
I tried it only for a few days, it
I started to take Doxepin instead- it was a life saver! It is considered to be a rather "old" drug and you would have to check to see if it is even available in your area. I took it for anxiety & trouble sleeping. Anyway it is a an alternative option to look into should Prozac not agree with you. Good luck.
days gone by

How about shows you miss that are no longer on (excpet maybe reruns)? I miss:



  1. Seinfeld

  2. Ally McBeal

  3. Strong Medicine

  4. The Division

  5. Any Day Now

Days Definitely
I love Days and make sure that I take my lunch break at 1:00 to watch the show. I'm happy to see Patch and Kayla back too. I've been watching for years myself. I just want them to get this Shawn/Belle/Claire mess taken care of. It's been going on long enough. My other addiction is Rob Thomas.
one of those days

I can't concentrate, my head hurts, and I can't hear half of what is being said.


Sorry, I needed to whine for a minute.


Thanks for letting me


Having one of those days...why is it
necessary for these dictators just not to care when dictating.  I am doing a 20+ minute dictation.  So far we are into almost 10 minutes of the dictation and so far I have one paragraph done, literally.  We are still in the HPI.  He has said ummmm who knows how many times and back tracked to rearrange things he already dictated.  I would love for each dictator to type one lousy report of theirs, just one and see what we put up with.  Maybe just maybe then they will shape up a bit and clean up their act, then again why should they care.  Maybe if they got paid for typing their own dictation they might get the point, once they starve, lose their nice boat, house etc.  Sheesh.  Okay done now, feel much better.  Thanks for allowing me to vent. 
one of those days

arghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!


Dictator, weather, kids,


It has all been said before.  And how was your day.


I feel better already

Three days then said ....

No - but did get let go after a few days
as service kept changing the way the work was being submitted and apparently I could not keep up well enough! There are just some very weird and very rude people out there - don't question yourself - sounds like they did not give you the tools to work with - the more companies/accounts I work for/with the more different they are - some companies actually believe their way is the RIGHT way and the ONLY way - don't let them get to you!!  You will find a better job real quick and be glad you did!!
I have days like that as well
Today, mind you, I have easy docs so my line count is fairly good. But I know the rest of the week will be terrible, and by Friday I am looking for other jobs. I don't really think there is a better place out there. I mean, this thing with MTSOs is a struggle for me. I work on the weekends too because I constantly am expected to make up my hours if THEY are out of work or if I have an appointment (which I understand). And, no, they are thankless and I feel like I am working in a third-world country in a sweatshop...

I understand your vent and live it every day.
