In Reply to: it's CHERRY PICKING and she could not get away with it at MQ - It's all bogus.

I thought cherry picking was doing what you wanted to and not doing what you didn't want to. At least, that's the way it is in the south.

My sentiments exactly...

About taking the car away from him when he dropped out of college, and my sister knows I felt that way at that time. Yesterday, when I saw how heated she was getting when she kept pursuing the discussion, I told her that it was none of my business. It was quite a drama.

My sentiments exactly!!!
I am repeating now what I did then...

I am going to school full time to be an accountant, I am working a full time job at home, and working a part time job in house, and barely getting by every month...

I had a friend I had not heard from in years contact me this week and tell me she was starting MT school - I said RUN THE OTHER WAY!!!!

I would not recommend anyone do this anymore. For years, I defended my job and my "career" to other transcriptionists, long after they saw what I was not seeing, and now I feel so foolish -- I could have finished school years ago and be in a place right now where I could be happy and fulfilled and not feel like such a failure -

This is my year to take control again!!!

Hee-hee - my sentiments EXACTLY

I agree we need some kind of Book of Style, but NOT AAMT/AHDI's NONSENSICAL, IDIOTIC version - Yes, I'm yelling...(caps).

Correct, and my sentiments exactly..
Doesn't matter which natural or manmade disaster referenced, the fact remains our health information is going to someone who is not bound by law (as US health care providers are) to keep it confidential. As in your post, I don't give a rip if some greedy offshore MT has a job or not. We have "heartbeats" but we also have family to support.

My sentiments exactly, I agree 100%. If only. nm

My sentiments on this chick exactly!
She also posts on the "other" board as Medtrans82. A lot of the time, she posts the same stuff on here as she does on there and it's nothing but drama! Her husband is a gay porn addict, her stepson hates her, her husband hates her, what should she do, etc., etc., and when someone questions her, she gets all nasty.

Yep, I know your MO sweetie, it's been the same for over a year now.
