Just send your all proof to Admin. Simple. But

When this happens to me, I go to several reliable sources and make sure that (1) I *am* spelling it correctly and there are not any alternative correct spellings and (2) that I have a source any doctor would not be able to argue about. I then type a polite note to the doctor and send it along with my proof. In my note, I include the comment that if he has found it spelled another way in a reliable reference, I'd be glad if he would let me know what reference that was, for my own information.  Once, for the name of a medical device, I went to the manufacturer's web page and printed the page describing the device and showing the spelling.  Along with my polite note, I faxed the web page to the doc.  The next dictation I got from him, he was very nice and apologetic and thanked me for being thorough! The worst that has happened is that I didn't hear anything back from a doc, but that's fine, too.  In the unlikely event that the doc STILL wants it spelled incorrectly (which has never happened to me, but it's possible) I would have him put it in writing that he wants it spelled that way. 

I proof after, but would love to proof during.  I'm working on it.  I'm curious as to what percentage of MTs proof as they go or proof at the end?

Thx for responding.

The Gab Board does not have a button in the *jump to* list, it is only listed on the boards to the left of the screen.  I never had the list of boards to the left, and maybe others don't, and so they would not find the Gab Board.

I did not get the list of boards to the left until I updated my antivirus program.  I even followed the instructions listed awhile ago from your web master and did not get the list to the left.

At least this is the way it is on my computer; maybe others also, in which case they would be posting on the wrong board, or not using the Gab Board.

Thank you! 

Do you have the information for the Admin. on anything to send information?

on the MQ board....the resident troll is back and as annoying as ever.  While we hate the overzealous banning....please, please, please remove the troll.  Disagreeing and trolling are way different, and the trolls DO need to be banned. 

I do not belong the AAMT, I was contacted by Spheris by E-mail asking to fill out an application.   And this is the only place that I ever post anything about being an MT -- so they got it from here.   This has been mentioned before and somehow our E-mail addresses are gotten and I would like to know how.    Like I have said, I have never posted a resume, never applied for a job and only have posted about 10 messages in the past six to seven months.   So how they got it, I don't know.

Hi!  I signed up, but need to edit it as I must have misunderstood and now my real first name is posting next to my avatar.  Guess it's no big deal, but would prefer that my board name post instead.  I keep trying to log in to change it, but it doesn't work.

Thanks for your advice,

You can rest assured that it's far better to raise a child in happy divorced home than a miserably married one. 

My daughter was only worried that she'd be the only one in her class coming from a divorced family, and I really reassured her that, unfortunately, every other seat in a classroom back then (15 years ago) and today (in my area) is a divorce situation.  She came home almost immediately relieved that what I had said was true and that she didn't feel ever like she was a misfit. 

Best of luck!!!!! 

Just today, someone had thanked MTStars for the AMEX gift certificate and the administrator from here did have an *sm* either in subj line or name line and nothing was inside.....and SHE DEFINITELY KNOWS HOW TO RUN AND POST ON HER BOARD....don't be so quick to jump on the draw......please.

Like we said before - it's mostly a simple error....we all do the best we can.

There were some wonderful posts to lift my spirits but alas, they are gone now.  It doesn't matter because my spirits, they are alift ;-)  Thank you posters, and especially ERMT who gave me a fun horoscope reading!  I hope she saw my post before it got deleted...even though it was completely clean and had no naughty words at all.  

I think everyone really could use a good laugh these days and now with ASR, MTs can contribute as well as QA. I get some really funny ones but forget to write them down so was thinking it would be neat to have an ongoing blooper board on this site. The comedy board is great; and being an MT site, I think a blooper board would be very appropriate and appreciated.  Thanks for your consideration!
