end of January great, too
I went at the end of January and had maybe a 15-minute wait max on the most popular rides, practically no wait on all the others. The weather was clear and high 60s, so not bad. I can't imagine what a mess it must be in the summer.
This is how it was told to me in January
They said at social security I could start drawing my money in 01/2009 - that is the year of my 66th birthday but I turn 66 in March. Now what they said is I could get 2 checks in January- why wait? Well, the wait for me is I get more money by waiting 2 more months and that is the rest of your life money- it can go up some because social security gives raises (unlike our jobs now). I reach 66 in the year 2009 but not 66 years of age until March, 2009. Does that make it more understandable- remember it is the government talking!
I think I bought it in January. nm

I'll probably wait until January...
and see what havoc is wreaked on my pay - but at this point there is just so much wreaking already...
Yes, I wish it were January 1st. I feel obligated
to invite people I do not really want to spend time with here for Thanksgiving and Christmas because otherwise they would have nowhere to go and would sit home alone. Guess it's not good to invite people and then resent it, but I do. And the cooking is left mainly up to me because the others are too old/incapacitated or too worthless to help.
We were slow the first week of January but
now we're being dumped on and can't seem to get to back in control. I've worked almost everyday just trying to stay close to TAT.
I have just missed this first 1 for the year, January.

4th quarter taxes are due on January 15th

How's your work load going Monday, January 9?
Just wondering if we are all in the same boat, sinking because of India oursourcing.
Good for you--I left the field in January
after 16 years. I now work as an Editor outside of the medical field. I'm still home-based, and my journalism degrees are put to good use. I hate to see what has happened in this profession, and follow the developments. However, I did not feel encouraged about my future in transcription, and felt that it was best to get out ASAP. I'm relieved to be out of it, and encourage anyone considering a career change to follow their intuition and explore their options.
Your transcription experience will put you ahead of the game in nursing school. Best wishes to you, and congratulations for taking action.
Yes! I saw it in Philadelphia in January - it was absolutely incredible!

I have the feeling they may eliminate SE because they are starting this new plan in January. Quite
frankly, I am surprised you do okay with Amherst. I sit looking at a no work sign many days and it gets a little tiresome. I have already been looking at other companies because I have felt for a long time with the lawsuits and millions going out MQ is not the place to be anymore. Too much baggage and may Spheris is in the picture especially if they drop SE I think that may well be true.
I'm hoping to go part-time January 1, at least for several months.
I am just so burned out I'm not getting the lines I need, my house isn't getting cleaned, I don't seem to have any leisure time, etc. I'm hoping that going part-time will be enough of a break that when I am working I'll be better focused and can actually produce the minimum lines that I need.
It slows down every August and January on both ER accounts that I have. This time sm
of year is the worst. I forget about it every year until it happens again. It usually picks up again at the end of August and then is really busy until the end of the year. It slows down a bit (not much) in the beginning of January and then is really, really busy until mid to late July into August.
I have been doing this for 13 years and the only year ever that it did not happen to me was last summer. Not sure why, but both hospitals stayed busy the entire 2006.
I dont remember exactly whether it was by Qmail or what mail but it is starting January 1. I was
concerned about that because usually when they change any kind of employee status or SE status it is in the beginning of a tax year. I am worried about the SE status for that reason. But it is January 1.
internest is not updated fast enough? I book you buy in January was put together mid last year..how
nm
No actually I plan to suck everything out of them at my line rate this year and then quit in January
when they start the new pay plan. Yep, that is exactly what I plan to do. Yep, I have it all planned out. This sick sick lady has it all planned out. The best of MQ is over.
Other than the reduction in ASR starting Oct 1 the rest of the deal doesnt start until January 1 so
we all have time to move on if it does not suit us.
Has anyone on this board's work slowed down this January. MT work that is.
Got several friends with slow-down of work but they are MQMTs Wondered how the rest of the MT world is doing.
A sad $11,000 for 2007, but I need to
...this is my 2nd year transcribing. I am really going to try to pick up the pace and the money in 2008 and am looking into getting my own accounts. If I don't do something I will have to get another job in addition to transcription. I worked for a doctor's office when I first started out making $14.00/hour, which in hindsight was pretty good for a beginner. I guess it just takes some people longer to get in gear. Things are really clicking for me now, and I can now fly through dictators that I used to find extremely difficult, so there's a ray of hope! I have never made more than $15,000 per year my entire life, and I've been working since I was 14 years old - it's time darn it!
CMT since 2007 (sm)
It's not that bad. The transcription portion is not difficult. There is a CMT prep book that has much harder practice dictations in it than the test will give you. You won't get a foot pedal in the test, but you only have short snippets to transcribe.
However, the first part of the test is the multiple choice part, and that was the part I found much more difficult than I anticipated.
As far as studying for it, I personally think working is the best way to study for it. There is a lot less emphasis on the BOS rules in the CMT test than I anticipated as well. I found it to be a transcription and knowledge test, not a memorization of the endless rules in the BOS.
Just go register for it and take it. Let us know what happens!
Word 2007 is the best
I used office 2003 pro since it came out and hated it. It was so slow. I just got the new office 2007 and it is MUCH better than any other version of office.
How did you get Office 2007 when it has only --sm
been released to businesses and is not available to the general public yet?? just curious. (wish I had it)
I have QLDB 2007
there is not much difference between that and 2006. the big difference between 05 and 06 was the search function. 06 would not let you search starting with an asterisk for a wildcard. 07 is the same. but i just tried searching for part of a word without a wildcard and it brought up words that had that part in the middle. so it seems you do not need the asterisk at the beginning of a search.
to be honest, i rarely use my electronic references. i mostly use the net and sometimes will double check a finding with an electronic ref.
i update my references on CD for the tax credit. and as a backup.

Thanks for the info!
QL DRUG REF 2007 . . . WHAT DO YOU USE INSTEAD
I have always used Stedman's QL electronic drug search reference material. I loaded my 2007 and discovered that they have built in something called a Launch Ready Reference Bookshelf that completely changes the way the drug reference works now. One thing that is missing is the fuzzy search, which I have always loved and used tremendously. I called Tech Support at Lippincott and at Stedman's and they both tell me that it is no longer part of the program and this new Bookshelf is going to be linked to all of their electronic products -- hence no fuzzy search. So, my question is, what is everyone else using. I have the Saunder's Pharmaceutical Word Book 2007 and I hate it as well, it takes too long to load and uses too much RAM to leave loaded.
Hope someone else has found an answer.
Word 2007
If I buy Word 2007, can I put it on more than one computer in my house or is the license restricted to just one computer? Thanks for sharing if you know the answer.

Has anyone had any issues; good, bad or indifferent, on Word 2007.
Thanks
Word 2007
I updated to Word 2007 - I took the time to watch the learning videos and was able to create new macros and boilerplate very nicely.
But I have lost all my add-in word books and dictionaries that were in my tool bar. Does anyone know how to get them back?
2007 survey
Says MTs make an average of $27K a year.
Remember pay is production based. If you don't have experience, you're going to be slow.
I would advise you to enroll in one of the better schools. You're going to have a very difficult time getting a job otherwise.
Word 2007 sm
Word 2007 or Office 2007 was made for Vista and, I believe, is not compatible with Word 2003 or Office 2003. Perhaps they have another file conversion tool on their site. This is the only reason why I cannot upgrade to 2007, although I would love to. There are many platforms and programs that are not compatible with it, as yet, either. It is MS way of trying to *force* the general public to upgrade to Vista, which I think stinks, but there are so many programs and companies that just are not ready for the change. They will also soon stop support for XP home edition, as well, but will continue supporting XP pro for a while yet. good luck to you.
i use QLDB 2007 - sm
I just tried using a wildcard search starting with *...and it would not let me. It will only let me start with a letter, then add the wildcards. Hope that helps!

Word 2007
Could users of Word 2007 share what you think of it, please. Do you like it, hate it, etc. How does it compare with other Word versions? Thank you.
RE: Word 2007
It is ok. You just have to learn how to work it. It works a lot different than the other. You have to learn where everything is. But, I am using it and not much trouble with it. The old one was the best one.
word 2007 Help
I am just switching to word 2007 from word 2000. Can someone please tell me how to copy and paste in 2007?
word 2007 help
I am trying to start using word 2007. There are a lot of things that I copy and paste. When I copy (ctrl+c) it does copy but when I try to paste (ctrl + V) it does not paste. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?
word 2007 Help
I am trying to get used to Word 2007. When I try to copy (CTL +C) and paste it will not paste with CTL + V. I have to use the mouse and click on the paste button. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Word 2007
Word 2007 does have its issues/quirks. We are having problems with its compatibility with our programs too.
If you can locate a copy of Word 2003, I recommend you get one. I bought a copy from e-bay. It was used, but I only paid $40 for it, and it works just fine. You can still have Word 2007 or other versions on your computer too, just don't overwrite your other versions is you are able to find a copy of 2003.
Word 2007
Good point. Thanks.
it is stedman's 2007...nm

I do not use 2003--have 2007, but have--sm
looked under the help option to see if there is anything there that would help you?
Also when you shut down for the day, do you get a msg asking if you want to save changes made to your normal? If so, do you click yes?
$400 for Office 2007?
Why so expensive? I cannot afford to buy this. Any suggestions? I need to upgrade but at that price I simply cannot afford to take the job.
Word 2007
I got mine at Best Buy for $100. It is not the business version, but works fine.
Thanks, I just got word 2007
and still trying to figure out where everything is. Who knew it would be/look so different?
2007 Jeep Liberty and
my husband's 1999 Dodge Intrepid which is paid for. He works for a Chrysler/Jeep dealership so hence the need to drive a Jeep and a Chrysler. LOL.
I was told not until LATE 2007
will escription be able to run with Vista. My boss said not to go buy a new computer with Vista and expect to be able to work escription.
I have D&D 2007 electronic version and....
I HATE IT!! It is so NOT user friendly! When you open it, it takes up your entire screen, and the wildcard search feature is crap, in my opinion. Luckily, I didn't have to pay too much for it (got it on a discount through my MTSO), so I ordered the QLEDB 2007 version (updating my 2005 version). Unfortunately, it's backordered.  but when it gets here, I'm taking the D&D one off my computer.... that's how much I hate it! lol
Cheaper is not always better. I'd stay away from the D&D version until they make it more user friendly.

Macro Help 2007 pleeezzze :-)
I have a client wanting me to work in 2007. I have a nice macro set up to move from field to field in all my documents by using the alt & J key to find @@. This was built in word 1997. I have spent hours trying to figure this out in 2007, but cant do it. The steps are nowhere near the same. I tried following what they said and it does the opposite. Instead of hitting alt & J to go to the @@ in my documents, it now puts in the @@ instead. HELP PLEASE. I really like this new account, but would be lost without my alt & J to move through the documents.
Is there anyone out there that knows how to build a macro in 2007 with the same steps as in 1997?
When i did this i opened the docuement, found the @@ and then would go from there. I dont seem to find these same options in 2007.
PLEASE ANYONE HELPPPPPP
carol, dazed and confused
Word 2007 Macros
When you open your Word document, there should be an option in the toolbar above that says "Developer." Enter Alt F8 to view your macros, but I think you have to manually hit the Record Macro to enter new macros.
p.s. I prefer the previous Word version over this "new" one.
