Those short reports drive me nuts also (sm)
Ever get stuck with those 4-line reports with a bunch of demographics? You end up making no money.
And then you find out you're the only one that's doing them.
Quit! Do yourself a favor. 
A jump drive is the same as a USB drive. SM
It's basically a small device you plug into a USB port on your PC and you can store files on it (like the floppy disks of the old days but with WAAAAAAY more space!). You can pick them up at Wal-Mart now for pretty cheap. I have a 2 gig and I can back up my entire hard drive on my PC (programs and all) if I needed to.
This may seem nuts, but....
My kids just left for school, one is a senior in high school and one is starting full-day first grade. My husband left for work and I am so sad and loney and its only 8:29 a.m. This is the first time I have been alone for more than an hour or 2 in years. I guess I should work unfettered, which will be weird. Even the dog is wondering where everyone is??? 
That is who said it. They are definitely nuts!LOL!

Also not nuts about it sm
slow, not user friendly.
Going nuts
 I just saw my original post. I am not going crazy just tired with learning all this stuff regarding digital and trying to land this account. Please forgive me!!
ASR is NUTS - LOL!
The patient recently returned back to her vulvar area, where she and her husband live with their 3 children and 2 dogs.
Must be kinda crowded in there....
OH COME ON NOW THIS IS GETTING NUTS!!!
Am I nuts
for hoping to get 1400 lines per day?
I don't think they are nuts, per se, but rather (sm)
so high all the time, dont know any difference.
btw: the inventor of LSD expired yesterday at age 102. he musta been doing something right. lmao
I know. It is nuts. It's even
more nuts to read MTs on here defending poor little Indian MTs trying to steal our jobs. Maybe they'll see things differently when they get pink-slipped.
She is NOT nuts, she has a business to run.

What drives me nuts is
EVOO. I do not like that at all.
She says EVOO then says extra virgin olive oil????
Are nuts okay on induction???????nm

They're nuts!!... you were right...sm
only way it would be "aggressively" is if he said, "pursue treatment more aggressively."
What? Are you nuts? I never tried to make
Perhaps I am a little more observant than most, but I thought that I was friendly enough.
Seems as though someone else is feeling hostile today though. Get up on the wrong side of the bed, perhaps? LOL :)
I think if it is THAT important to you, then you should read the thread again and you may be able to see who tried to make someone feel *badly* here.
I do hope you feel better soon.
P.S. I am unable to use the bad S word that you used in your post. MTStars says it is a bad word and prompts me to edit my post.
nuts? Are you suggesting we need have

THIS DRIVES ME NUTS
why are we so concerned with sending work overseas??
This nation is so concerned with fixing problems everywhere else in the world and not focusing on our own!
Why do we constantly send work, money, military, etc etc etc overseas when we have homeless, starving, children (and adults!) here in the USA? We have students who can't go to college because they can't afford it and the federal government won't help because they are not a minority! We have people who can't get jobs for the same reason!
How about this?! Why don't we stop looking at race, background, and gender, and start looking at qualifications? Why don't we stop judging what people need based on color?
But i'm getting off track...
This country has a serious issue, and it starts with companies like AHDI. Rather than lobby for "a standard" they need to lobby for our work staying right here. When there is such an over abundance of work here that no one goes hungry and everyone has a roof over there head, then we can send it over there. I know there is such a romanticism about helping foreign areas. We see it everywhere. Celebrities adopting foreign children, missionaries wanting to go to China but not bothering to minister to people in their own back yard. Yes, we need to help, but we need to take care of our own also!
There is something wrong when a basketball player makes millions and a teacher barely can get by on his or her salary. What kind of country have we become? We place more value on entertainment then on morals and education.
When will it stop? We are going to dig ourselves in to such a hole and we are going to pull down all of our greed, immorality, conceitedness and every other vile thing we have become down on our heads!
I'm sorry I just don't understand what is so great about our country anymore. It seems we've got it pretty twisted. It won't be long before we start to reap what we sow. And I promise you, in the healthcare world, if all of our transcription goes overseas, and the documentation process becomes sub par, next thing you know the lawsuits will quadruple, which will raise the cost of healthcare, which will mean absolutely no healthcare for some, and so on and so on.
But hey, all in pursuit of the almighty dollar, right???
Thank you, I was going nuts, that helps.

I agree completely. He is nuts.
But what did I miss with Johnny Depp???
How about nuts? Almonds are healthy. (nm)

Thought I'd heard/done it all. This is nuts!! sm
Doc comes on and I thought he had a poor connection or something because his voice is shaking... he says, "Sorry, I'm jogging and I'm a little out of breath..."
JOGGING WHILE DICTATING!!!???
Needless to say, I'm not enjoying this dictation.
Long report too... he's a cardiologist... lol... maybe explains the jogging...
Okay, just had to vent. Back to work.
That totally drives me nuts....
they just keep talking right on through the yawn as if we can even remotely begin to understand what they are saying. Sheesh!
I tried that out once...WAY too many emails...DROVE ME NUTS!!!

I think it's nuts that it's still in beta test but we still would have to PAY to take it. sm
If I'm helping YOU develop your product, I should not be paying! When game developers need people to beta test their games....the game company PAYS THE TESTER! AAMT is absolutely out of their minds.
yikes ! ESL driving me nuts
Just a quick vent - for the last 45 minutes I have mostly been listening to the sound of her breathing with an occasional "continuing dittation" thrown in here and there followed by more breathing  . I even heard someone in the background say "You can push 1 to put it on pause" which she does for a split millisecond and then continues back with her breathing/"continuing dittation" pattern. Not having a good day today. Beam me up Scotty, Please ! 
Are you NUTS?!! Stay put with your own account! sm
I have been there - had my own account(s), gave them up, and went to work for a national. They are so unreliable to say the least!
Honestly, having your own account is the best of both worlds, more money, less headaches, etc.
I am now back doing my own account(s) again and loving every minute of it. Stress-free living and no headaches. Keep within TAT, send my invoice, and get a fat paycheck! What more could you want?!!!
Really think long and hard about the choices in front of you and best of luck whatever you decide.
my shortand is driving me nuts
It's running so slowly behind what I am typing that I am really messing up and have not even added that many items to it yet. I need it for a job I have that you cannot use autocorrect, which I love, but have to use shorthand. Is there something I can adjust so it does not lag so far behind
Thank you for clarifying. Drives me nuts
when people just read the first 2-3 lines and think they have the story. Although, sadly in the end would agree that he probably would not be the best motivational speaker - but I would have said that before his probs began - he just does not seem right for that kind of organization - but those are my personal feelings only. Thanks again
Oh nuts, it didn't copy. Sorry. nm

Absoluuuuuuutely abSOfreakinglutely drives me nuts.

Yes, "myself" drives me nuts as well as "further" for sm
"farther" and "anxiousness" instead of "anxiety." TV newscasters are really getting bad. They're adding "ous" to everything!
leave them right there, no matter how much it drives you nuts!
I did this for a week with my husband. Pretty soon his stuff was all over the house and come one Monday morning he about had a stroke trying to put together something to wear. Guess what? After that he started putting his things away like a "big boy" because mommy was not there to help him all the time. This is what my MIL should have done when he was living at home, not catering to his every need and constantly "helping him"!!!
how about pecan pie, use food processor for the nuts.
or a cheesy-egg dish, ie, keesh (however that is spelled).
and the doc spells "orientated." drives me nuts.

I have a new female dictator who just drives me nuts.
She speeds through the entire physical exam in less than 10 seconds. She gets going really fast and doesn't swallow, so I can hear her spitting all over while she talks! If she can't be bothered to slow down and enunciate so that she can be understood, she deserves to have blanks in her reports. It's not auctioneer school, lady!
How true, I have one very crappy doc that drives me nuts, just got done 10 minutes of him that is-sm
riddled with blanks. I go through it once more, then the office mgr goes through it and fills in what I cannot get. We have an understanding that I do what I can then send it in luckily on him. It is an all-around non-money making account....I waste my time, she wastes her time then the owner proofs it. This doctor even has horrible residents who dictate for him. If there was not so much background noise I would do a lot better but they somehow manage to find the most horrible place to do their dictation and go to town with it........surprised I still have hair left. I told them that if we continue to do this guy (the doctor had decided to stop using the service but changed their mind recently) that I should be paid double (I get the bulk of this twit) and they should charge more to do him due to all the heck he puts us through. ------Can't wait to see what happens with that one!
You cant have a 1 hour TAT and MTs have work. They are completely nuts. We are being used and abused

How far is the new job to drive - sm
You need to consider many things.
Consider the expenses of driving further and parking fees if there are any. How much time out of your day is driving back and forth, etc.
Teaching hospital - means more ESL than a community hospital. Do you want your day filled with difficult dictators?
Personally, when I was in my 20's - I'd make the change no matter what. Now, that I am 38 and have 2 teens at home, etc. it is way more beneficial to me to make more money at home.
Go with your "gut" feeling! That usually never steers you wrong.
Good luck in whatever you decide.
Yes, as mother's we should take the
responsibility. Whether they were married or not is not relevant. Everyone makes poor choices in life. Everyone, married and unmarried, might need help at some point in their life. What difference would it make if my sister in law was married? The courts wouldn't enforce the order anymore than they are now. You say you are all for going after the father, what difference does it make then? They are not held accountable by your government, but you think it is okay to speak against any woman needing help only momentarily because they made a poor choice in life?
I'll give you another example. My mother who was married to my father for 10 YEARS had to get a divorce and take all 4 of us kids with her. My father after 5 years of MARRIAGE started beating her. He then put guns to my brother and my mom. He raped my sister many times before she was ever not scared enough to tell someone. She left as soon as she could get out and took all of us with her. Our government that she paid taxes into her whole life did not once honor the restraining orders, did not honor the court order for child support, and would not provide my sister with counseling at no charge or reduced rate. Do you know why? Because a member of the family committed the crime. Even though the man told my mom that he is aware that most all sexual assault cases occur in the family, but according to the procedures laid out to them by our government, you cannot get assistance if the act occurs in the family. My mother worked 3 jobs. We had to get her out of bed with a broom because she would come up swinging. She drove us all many, many times to counseling and did not get sleep to go to her next job. If our government would have pursued the child support order, if they would have offered her free counseling for my sister so she was not having to pay out of pocket, just a little help for a short period in her life, then she would not have had it so rough, or us so rough during those times. I am sorry, but it is our responsibility to take care of ourselves. On the other hand, our dollars do not go back to our people in the right way. If you think they do or you think that the government should not be held accountable for their lack of assistance or overseeing of the assistance they do give to make sure it is used properly, you are fooling yourself. If you think it is about all for yourself, never have to depend on the government at all in your life for anything, then give us our money back and we surely could do that.
Mother's Day
My birthday is on Mother's Day this year. I got myself a present, a ticket to see Rob Thomas in concert in PA. I usually get a combined birthday present/Mother's Day present from my husband and two daughters.
My mother's day
First thing when she got up, my 5-year-old asked "Is it Mother's Day?" When I said yes, she went to her school backpack, pulled out a little brown bag that says "I love mom" on it, and took out a little sculpture of herself that she made at school. My 18-year-old son spent half the day sleeping, a few hours at his girlfriend's house, stopped at home and gave me the top half of a carnation. I think he pulled it off of his girlfriend's mom's bouquet or something. My 21-year-old daughter called at 8 tonight and said "Happy Mother's Day. I didn't get you anything. I can get you a card though." I think she basically called to let me know she works tomorrow because I watch my 1-year-old grandson when she works. Oh yeah, my husband and I got in a fight. I'm so close to tears. I can't wait until everyone is bed so I can have a good cry. Am I being too sensitive about the older kids? I don't expect them to spend a bunch on me but they both work, and a $5.00 little flower, an annual or something, or pitching on a hanging basket or something, or even a card..whatever..would have made my day. I don't know. Maybe it's just PMS.
Mother's Day
I'm sorry about those 2 self-asorbed older kids. Just think how much the little one loves you - when a 5-year-old remembers Mother's Day, that's special!
As one of the other posters said, remember this on your kids' birthdays. Turnabout is fair play. If you keep giving to them and doing for them, they will get the message that they can treat you anyway they want.
Personally, I would call them on this, but that is just me. I wouldn't be watching that grandson, I can tell you that.
Mother-in-law
Oh gosh! Don't even get me started on mine --- that is another book! lol. Oddly enough the one thing she does approve of is me being here for her son and our children. She has opinions (her own-- not always bright) about everything else I don't do the way "she" would.
my mother-in-law always said
it costs nothing to ask... so give it a shot... susan
My Mother said it does. She said it did not last sm
for her too long, however, it has been almost a year for me, maybe even longer with these palpitations etc. Some days I am great, others not so great. I was walking with a neighbor until she got pregnant but has had the baby now and I think exercise does help the whole situation.
Thank you so much. Please keep my mother in your
prayers. She is a very sick lady.
mother ill
If I were you I would move her to Georgia. I would just tell her she needs someone to care for her and I didn't want to uproot my family.
