with the changing of the seasons, I know that wouldn't be for me at all! I would hate it after only a couple of weeks or so...

Therapy for what? Because I don't support any woman who spouts an idea because she is a woman?
And you fall into the "therapy" or drug routine? Why not address the issues. You want women to support women no matter how ridiculous the idea is or you want to support a truth, no matter who tells it. The rest of the "therapy" crap you post is BS. You must know that by now.
That is a luxury we don't all have
But we don't all have that luxury. My parents are dead and we move often, so don't have any friends to watch my kids for me. You are one of the very few, lucky ones.
Very few of us have the luxury anymore of
And even if there's a smidgeon of wiggle room while agreeing on a starting wage at a new employer, it's usually only a percentage of a PENNY. On a wage that is already disproportionately low for the amount of skill required. And you think 'forcing' minimum wage is wrong? Why? If it were enforced, some of us might actually be able to MAKE minimum wage.
And mandatory cost-of-living increases need to be in place for the MTSO industry, as well, because they've been taking advantage of the lack of any kind of enforcement of it in this particular business, and have been cheating their employees for far, far too long. If they won't take the initiative to be fair, responsible, and above-board in the way they deal with their their clients, and even more so with their employees' wages then yes, at this point I'd rather the government stepped in than have to transition to burger-flipper at Mickey-D's.
Nope. We Don't Get That Luxury
We are the LAST line of defense for the company. We can not ask others to listen to our report since we are holding the soundfile.
You should really stop slamming QA since you obviously know pitifully little about what the job entails.
We can't all afford the luxury of "Finding another job"
It isn't nearly as easy to up and quit a job as you make it sound. What about health coverage? Most of us have children or medical conditions and need our insurance coverage. When you start a new job, you have to wait usually 90 days before health care will kick in and, in some cases, if you have a pre-existing condition, they won't cover you. That is why a lot of us stay. MQ is very closed in the communication department, so this is our only means of communicating with each other. And it doesn't help to get bashed by our fellow MTs. We could use a little patience and little sympathy from our brother and sister MTs. So you have to scroll down past our remarks, you could be in our shoes and that is much worse. So next time you want to bash MQers, think about if the shoe was on the other foot.
Wish I had that luxury! Every single one of the reports
Interesting (except op notes)? YES.
Able to sustain life at $6/hour? NUH-UH.
I want the Hyundai Santa Fe. Luxury and comfort
for a SUV. Rent one for a day or so before you buy, that way you can really tell if you like it. We usually rent something that we're thinking of buying when we go on vacation.
Yes, instead of healthcare, a luxury industry, one with lots SM
of money to throw around. Just a few weeks ago, there were a whole lot of them seling overpriced goods to people happy to be taken to the cleaners. For the next year or so, though, until those're back to normal, I'd check out government contractors, including war profiteers. Seriously. Many of them are making enormous profit margins on contracts that still have years to run.
And plenty of them were carting plasma TVs and luxury items too.

colors
I have found light peach background with dark brown text to be very helpful.
What screen colors do you use?
What screen colors are easiest on your eyes? I read somewhere that shades of lavender/purple actually caused the least eye strain. (I'm assuming no color blindness!) I've been using black text on white background for a long time, but I'm getting old, the bifocals slip on my face, and I'm trying new colors. Just wondering what colors most MTs use to prevent eye strain.
my true colors
Yeah if Mexicans coming in the US illegally and me as a taxpayer having to pay for them to freeload over here makes me a racist and I am showing my true colors then hey I guess I am racist. It is not right. That is why they are known as ILLEGAL aliens. If they would go about it the RIGHT way and become citizens and get jobs and try to better themselves then it would be different but I have a first hand view of what they do and most of them do it. They come over here and try to get all they can for nothing. Yeah I probably would want to come over here but they can do it legally and try to better themselves not be moochers. My parents gave this "little mexican girl" a place to park her camper and asked for no money for rent only utility to be paid. My parents had to ask her 3 times for a utility payment when she has a job and had the money. She expected to live for free off my parents. Dont ask how she got a job because she is illegal and finally admitted it when my mother pressed her. Maybe it was a job where they dont check I don't know. My parents have tried to give and be nice to this girl but she continually takes advantage.
Screen colors
Changing screen colors through the control panel will not change anything on any other computer. That's just nonsense.
Your coworkers sound as though they changed the font color and background color ON THE DOCUMENT itself using the formatting commands. That's the only way a change would transfer with the document itself.
Changing it with Barb's method will give you a glaring blue background with white text. You can't get aqua that way.
You can change your colors in Windows. Start, Control Panel, Display, then choose a color scheme in Desktop. Get as close as you can with one of the ones provided, then adjust the color of the background. You can invent your own if you're not happy with any you see there.
Software comes with built-in instructions now. Just click "help" on the toolbar.
Different pastel colors in a plaid.

All the different colors of correct-tape!
Sure does bring back memories. I remember sitting at my Selectric in my basement when I was a newbie back in 1975 crying my eyes out because I had just finished a 3 page report and the doc wanted me to insert a paragraph at the beginning of the report! There was no "memory" back then and the whole thing had to be retyped just to add one paragraph! I remember them fondly, but am much happier with my computer! Thanks for the walk down memory lane, though!
Horses change colors.....
Didn't ya see the Wizard of Oz? LOL
Plastic shoes that come in many different colors, and several
different styles. Very popular with medical personnel who are on their feet all day. Google Crocs.
Here's a site for NC cottonmouth colors:

changing background colors
1. Click on Start | Control Panel | Display | Appearance | Advanced
2. Cick in the White box that says "Windows Text"
3. Under Item you'll have Window and under Color 1 you'll have you're bright white.
4. Click on the down arrow and either pick one of the colors you see or click on Other.
5. Click on the white box (lower right) and on the far right a bar will appear that goes from bright white to black. Click down the bar a little bit at a time until you get the color you like. You'll see the colors change in the COLOR box. When you have the color you like, click "Add to Custom Colors" and then click OK. Click OK twice more.
You have now changed the display on your screen alone. Whoever you send the file to will see it according to their settings.
The colors set on your computer pertain
only to you. It comes into the MTSO at however they have it set.
Click the More button on the colors tab so you can
further customize the color in the right window.
October! Love the colors of fall
I feel so alive!
Brighter colors do fade over time and I could
that is 12 years old.
Some of the craft stores like Michael's carry them in funky colors, too. nm

It was wonderful outside. The butterfly bush is covered with butterflies of all colors. nm

I changed the background and text colors in the Windows appearance settings.
It does not transfer to anybody else. The colors you see on your screen are going to depend on your video card so only you can play with the colors to find one that is soothing to your eye.
He loves that I
am always ready to go at a moments notice and he doesn't have to wait for me.
He also loves that I am very smart. He jokes and calls me *the smart one in the relationship* because I seem to know a little bit about everything.
She loves this man.
Just because they are having a disagreement does not mean she would be better off without him. The parents maybe, but I doubt her DH feels like he would be better off without his parents, even if it is true. This is an issue that can definitely be worked out.
Loves him?
I feel for HIM that he passed at such an early age. Hopefully he is on to bigger and better things . . . but when he was about 15, she gets drunk, drools all over him, and calls him 'Schmoopie' on national television and that is love??? She is nothing more than a gold digging skank, and as far as I've seen loves herself more than anyone or anything else.
To the one who LOVES VSR
Were you a very slow typist? All I know is that I have been doing this for about 7 years and had gotten to the point where I could pretty much type along with the dictator and when done did not really have to make corrections or edit once I transcribed the report the first time. It was pretty much perfect without any corrections to be made and I was getting paid double the amount. Now I am spending the same amount of time and getting paid half less. I don't see how this could benefit anybody or why anybody would LOVE this unless they were a very slow typist to begin with!
I must be one of the only ones who loves it
It's probably because I was medical secretary/ transcriptionist/paralegal for over 20 years before I became an MT. I recently started back working part time as a LT. It is very hard and they can definitely run hundreds of pages as the above poster said, but the TAT is usually a week or more. The work I'm transcribing now needs to be done in 2 weeks. There is a website that you should look at that has general as well as legal jobs. It's www.tiptopwebsite.com/cslusher. Hope this helps.
Thanks! My whole family loves this and now

No way! He loves the wacky tabacky.
Don't you remember when he and Linda were arrested in Japan for brining marijuana into the country? It was a big scandal.
Awwww. She just loves you and wants some attention. sm
I have one cat in particular who always hits the keys. When I see her coming, I have to roll my keyboard drawer back under the desk or my transcription will look like this or get signed off prematurely. zzzz zzzz zzzz zzz zzz zzzzz zzz zzzx xxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx

He tells me he loves me all the time, and not
only does he tell me, he shows me. He isn't romantic at all, but he does little things all the time that shows he is thinking of me.
He likes to share new experiences with me, he enjoys going to craft shows with. He isn't particularly fond of working in the yard, but he knows how much I enjoy it and he spends hours working in the yard, even when I'm not working with him.
He cooks and helps around the house (usually without grumbling). I could serve him burnt toast for supper and he would thank me for a good meal.
He overlooks my faults.
He loves me despite my faults and I know I can trust him.
:)
#1 He loves that I am his best friend and that I don't try to be his momma. #2 - The sex! ;)

i thought i was only one who loves Rebecca
my favorite part in the movie is when he kisses his finger and put it on her forehead and she just lets out a sigh. You forgot The Bad Seed. Another excellent oldie:)
My cat loves to sit on the window sill too...
I make sure and keep the blinds up some during the day so she can do so. I think she likes sunbathing. My other cat could care less. He's getting older though. He is definitely past the age of wanting to "hunt" anymore. The youngest still trys to get out sometimes, but is generally pretty happy sitting at the window (this was a wild cat rescued out of the woods too BTW). The older one we let in the backyard with us sometimes. He just sits there and walks around some, but that's it. None are allowed outside by themselves though, especially since we just moved and they could run off and get lost easliy.
I've had inside and outside cats my whole life. It is a personal decision and just depends on the circumstances I think.

I'm an old-timer who loves PRD also and will share with you what little I know
PRD is DOS based and must run in DOS-based WP program.... I have a link that explains how to load WP DOS if you are interested. Looks pretty complicated to me... I gave up as realized I was eventually going to have to move to Windows. Bought InstantText which allows you to add PRD glossaries - but I hate it!!

Misery sure loves company...
I'd bet my last dollar (that I made transcribing today) that any other job has the same hang-ups! Tired of the same old thing, low pay... It is the economy. Everything is going up, we're not the only ones suffering! Everyone is! When I get those types of feelings I often think of the women/men with spouses fighting the war! Now, that's something to groan about! Oh, I'm soooo bored (barf)! Life is what ya' make it... for sure... Good luck in your endeavors whatever it may be...
That's why AHDI just LOVES them Indians!
.
Yep, I agree. Frank loves us and only wants the very best for our lips.
:
There's the difference, right there. I work for an MTSO who LOVES sm
for us to make money because then SHE makes money. I have been on the same accounts for five years.
I can't understand why people get switched around like they do in other places (I've worked for EDiX and another small MTSO and they switched people like mad).
Chicken Cutlets!!!!!!!!!!!! My family loves them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SM
Pound the breasts out flat with a mallet and coat in egg and milk; then dredge them in Progresso Italian breadcrumbs and crushed saltine crackers mixed with Romano Cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Flash fry them in hot peanut oil and serve them hot with tortellinis and pesto sauce and a nice fresh salad. 
Yup - 80 lb golden retriever loves to lay right at my feet. sm
She also likes to lay right at my chair, so when I roll it, I am always on her tail or something. She drives me crazy too. She has to be everywhere I am. Love her to death tho! Don't want to be without her.
