The Rolling Stones? You mean The Strolling Bones? Mick wasn't hot b4 and still isn't! But hey,
big lips and pretzels for legs then hey, more power to ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For those of you that don't think Mick Jagger is hot sm
I would much rather have a 62-year-old husband that looks like Mick than most of the fat bellied rednecks that American woman seem to be stuck with and pretending to still adore them. Now THAT is eeeuu. Sure he might be a nice guy, but stop buying Doritos and ice cream.
I'm proud to say my husband is mid-forties and still has a body like a 20-year-old. He does not work out, he does not watch his diet and he does not drink or do drugs. But he does play bass guitar in a band and he can still move like a 19-year-old. Not to worry, he still has his "day job" as well.
Must be something about the music that gives them the capability to keep a high metabolism and not letting their midrifts go to innertube to justify sticking a Nascar sticker on the bumper of their pickup. 
Who thinks Mick Jagger is still hot??
Mick and Keith are 62 and Ron is younger....sm
just cause you probably look like you're 70 and you're probably 50 isn't anybody else's problem except yours.
*ROFL*
It's Keith Richards who has the pock marks, not Mick.

Mick Jagger has NEVER had plastic surgery! Nor has KEITH RICHARDS!
The Stones
Absolutely! Old or not, they still have what it takes in my opinion! I can if you can still sell out a concert, go for it!
Stones
Probably still jumping around because he is still full of drugs from the early days.
I'm sorry, but that guy it just plain homely. Not all that talented in my opinion, but music is a personal taste and lots of people like the Stones.
The Stones. sm
The stones are and forever will be legends. The little girls on here are too busy buying Jessica Simpson and Brittany music.
Stones
I will love the Stones forever.
rolling stones still have it
I saw them on their Steele Wheels tour. They were ossum, absolutely worth every penny. Fantastic performance!!!
Gross!! Maybe in the 70s-now the Stones are just 70!

Stones who's next Aretha? sm
You generation X people just don't get it. The Stones were essential in elevating music, what ever you like as it is today; we were there and we fought for it and beatles and stones were with us. I guess you did not like the Queen of Soul either, to fat, what? She was the FIRST woman ever inducted into the Rock and Roll Music Hall of fame. You young people are so obsessed with looks. I guarantee you looks will fade and that includes yours. It starts at 35. Even though you think you will never age, you reach your peak at 30 and then at 35 you start dying if you are narrow minded.
Stones? GRAVEL!
Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you SHOULD do something. Thought they looked bad and sounded even worse. Needed grease for their slow swiveling joints and voices were so bad that if Simon were to have heard them for the first time he would have said that they sounded like his Uncle Herman. Just goes to show you that a lot of money makes for an Emperor's clothes kind of mentality in terms of displaying something that should not be displayed. Anybody agree with me????
Throwing stones...
I would like to point out that you are asking people to delineate their experience on their resume, and that is not the function of a resume. Recent experience and future objectives should be discussed in a cover letter. A resume is more or less a reference guide of your work experience. Your deciphering of one should come with your experience in hiring MTs; what companies they have worked for and what educational programs they have attended should illuminate to you what they've done in the past.
1. If a company runs an ad looking for MTs and puts "competitive line rate" for compensation, or only asks for 2 years experience for acute Basic-4, expect a resume from everyone who graduated from XYZ "Typier" School in Whittier, Wisconsin. It's obvious you don't know what you want.
2. If you set an MT up for testing, expecting them to follow abbreviated, slapped-together instructions by e-mail without a telephone alert it was on its way, don't expect the test back in 20 minutes. Legitimately timed testing is NOT done this way.
3. For those of you who use online tests from third parties, I encourage you to go and take your own test. It will be very educational at the very least with regard to what you are spending your money for, which is not much.
4. Still on the subject of testing: Give legitimate examples of the work the MT is going to be expected to do, and not the "cherries." If you have 50% or more ESL, you might want to pick out some of your more difficult dictators to provide as examples of what your company has to offer in terms of work being done for a production-based pay scale.
5. Be prepared to answer questions about how you count your lines, and know that any MT worth their salt is going to want to compare your line count of their test with what the MT can count on their own.
6. Don't tell people to expect a call from you, not call and then call, expecting them to drop everything to accommodate you. They are looking for work, not begging for scraps.
7. Finally (for now), do not do a "bait and switch." If someone applies with you because you offered a particular specialty, or work type, a line rate "based on experience," a definite schedule, etc., and you decide later that's not the case...shame on you.
Anyone seeing the Rolling Stones on tour?
I've always wanted to see 'em in concert - can't believe they are all in their 60s....but Mick Jagger still knows how to shake it!
Oh my gosh. Went to Rolling Stones about 8 years ago (I'm 55 and as straight as they come). SM
We jumped up and down and hollered and smoked pot and just went crazy. It was so much fun!
My original post was about the Stones and I did not name call!!!! Give it up! nm

incident involved Rolling Stones concert...NM
.
I have been doing this forever as well, but
never thought to work toward a half daily goal. I work in 2 hour increments in that same manner, but find that in the morning that first 2 hour break comes too soon. I don't know why I didn't think to try a 1/2 day goal, other than after doing this forever I may be "stuck in a rut." By the way, great post!
YES!! always and forever LOL nm
XX
the same jobs in the USA forever!! nm

Mel Gibson. Forever.

No way! It took me forever to figure out how to get - sm
my DOS Smartype to work (MTSO still uses WP 5.1), couldn't imagine the nightmare of figuring that all out all over again. Every Windows has had tons of bugs, I'd rather wait 2 years until they are all worked out, plus it will cost a lot less then probably. I plan to avoid it all together if I can.
Yes you can, took me forever to figure it out - sm
but I have my WP5.1 and Smartype on mine. Had to change a few things in a couple files and change a BIOS USB setting, but works great. PRD will work to, go to the Columbia website and they have it all mapped out there how to do it. You just have to do about 3-4 things and it will work.
Nothing is forever....see message
But it's better to go from good to bad than from bad to worse!
It SHOULD TAKE FOREVER if the person is doing nothing but AMERICAN
dictators and YOU ARE DOING THE OTHER WORK THAT IS LEFT OVER. FOREVER IS A LONG TIME.
CONSIDER THIS: Your source and your manager don't like you and are going to let you stew by feeding you information about this Indian person doing all the easy work and letting you pick up the crummy work done by Indian dictators. And as long as you keep doing this, they have no motivation to change and the Indian MT walks away with your money.
Have a nice day indeed. Sounds like you have had a rotten couple of months and you are wasting your have a nice day on me. I'm doing great dictation, picked up a huge bonus this pay period. Don't waste wishing nice days on me. I make my own thank you.
got it, DUH. havent typed a Pap in forever.
s
It should work, I have Smartype for DOS, took me forever to - sm
figure it out (tried on and off for a year) but finally got it to work. The Columbia University site has wonderful info. on how to get the DOS programs to work with XP. In the end all I had to do was change a USB setting and my Smartype works fine with my WP5.1; and my systems settings/BIOS have not been compromised because of it. I have PRD too (not on disk though) but have not tried getting it to work but I am sure it is something similar in getting it to work.
Little girls that age have been saying this forever. Don't worry! nm

I have not picked up a book in forever
I go to the Internet for everything I need to know. Keep in mind that you need to find reference sites that are legit, then the Internet is the way to go. In fact, my books are packed in a box and I have no clue where that box is. The exception to that is my Book of Style, and it is a rare use item, as well.
Fat can be lost but ugly is forever. It must suck

I'm totally avoiding the mall...FOREVER
People are crazy this time of year. Hello chronic anxiety.
QUITTING MEDICAL TRANSCRIPTION FOREVER
Hello everyone,
I have finally quit medical transription once and for all. It has been a roller coaster for the last eight years. I finally found something that is so much better. I will be making my own hours and deciding exactly how much money I want to make. I got so tired of begging for enough work. I was tired of seeing everything going to India. I also got tired of making less and less money. This is the only industry where you have to have more and more experience and knowledge, but you do not get paid more for it. I am just happy that I found an out for myself. Now, with EMRs there will be very little transcription work left. I hope the best for all of you!
Take care
Magic Jack is not unlimited forever
The fine print on my Magic Jack indicates that if I use it for more than 20 percent more than the average person (whatever that means), they may discontinue my service. I am not familiar with the MT jobs that require unlimited phone service or the C-phone, but I imagine that those minutes would add up rather fast.
As far as using the Magic Jack for long-distance calls to family and friends, it seems to work great. It just doesn't seem like a good choice for MT work, IMHO.
Aw, thanks. I've been in the biz forEVER and in order to learn, you HAVE to be priased...
I know some QA who never do anythnig constructively but for one to learn, you cannot beat them into submission like the Marines do. I had an MT one time who was on 100% review for 6 months. The other QA would complain but I would say to her, 'Fran, you are doing a great job, but you need to remember that it is venous stasis not venoustasis' (not her real name and not a word she necessarily missed) She learned it because I didnt say it nasty. I've had more than my share of bad QA and thats why I know you have to be praised at some point. It is just easier for me to try to help. Kind of like first grade, ya know - if you have a good first grade teacher, you have a desire to learn. If you have a QA that cares, then it is easier for everyone.
Happy New Year and hopefully good QAs all aound!
Ditto, doing 23 minutes of a Dr. I hate right now.....taking forever....well back to it - nm
