Hi RadGuy....I have had some nice docs too....
One difficult ESL at least always says at the end, "Tank you wery much, and hab a nice day." And I have a new psychiatric nurse that BELTS out very loudly WITH GUSTO, "THANKS! YOU GUYS DO A GREAT JOB!" We had better, since her reports are ALWAYS 250 lines long! That would be real culture shock for you,huh RadGuy!!Ha Ha! Hab a nice day!


Call human resources. I called human resources about it. Sooner or later they will get tired of the
calls and do something about it. Safety in numbers. I have called twice. I forgot to mention the assinine QA point plan though. Mostly I bitched about the no work thing. Told them the new pay plan based on incentive is another joke with no work. Cant make incentive with no work.
Well that is real mature, calling me a rimrod. Why the name calling?
I am not telling everyone to leave this site. I gave info about MTSTars.net to let us, who have been on this site MTStars.com for many years to make up their own minds. YESTERDAY, I never got a straight answer about the owner of this board and now I know, but I was in the middle of asking questions earlier and my posts kept getting deleted. I was not calling anyone names, like YOU have and I am not insuling anyone like YOU have. NOT offshoring? Well he is from Pakistan am I right? I still do not know the truth. Can you supply me with more information about Dr. Ahmed?
Human? - sm
To err is human...to scam is criminal....and she will be brought up on charges this time, I will make sure of it.
You must not be a human being.
If you knew a patient's life was in danger you would not be at all concerned?
that is verbatim. QAs are only human too. nm
 
Human responses?

Actually it is the height of human
We are poisoning the earth and ourselves. Nature is amazing in her resilience, but do you know how long it takes the ecosystem to recover from fires and floods? Did you know that fire retardant has been found in human breast milk? What about the amount of pesticides and chemicals in the bloodstreams of infants and children? Denial is the only thing scarier than that. Do the research, it will open your eyes.
Every species EXCEPT HUMAN. nm

Yes, I think it's human nature

I agree with you. We are ALL human...nm.

Human nature

People generally don't talk about how happy they are on a regular basis. They tend to want to talk to others when something is bothering them, and focus more on the negative. So I guess it makes sense that you don't see a lot of posts that say "Ladeedah, how I love my job and what a stupendous day it is in the transcription world today!" The job is just a means to a happier life, not the definition of a happy life.


Personally, I feel honored that I am in this profession.  Not because of the money or the skill and intelligence that it requires, but primarily because it allows me to be home with my daughter instead of shipping her off to daycare every day for some stranger to screw up. That is why I will deal with the lack of raises, crappy dictators, periodic lack of work, mgmt that is too overworked to care, etc. To be with my baby all the time and still bring in a paycheck, however meager it may be.


They believe ASR is human transcription?

They were all probably told that is why the work is over there and they have to fix our stuff, that way it boosts their egos. 


I still believe it is the other way around.  OH...our ignorant minds.


Yes, we are all human BUT my post isn't going to part...

DeVenture & Human Rights
You may want to check out the Bangor Daily News online State page for August 7 of this week. President, Michael Deville was found liable for employee discrimination. Sounds like a great place to work. In addition, that manager you are speaking of most likely has no backbone when it comes to standing up when it's require of her.
You are probably more upset than the doctors will be. They might act tough, but they are human too.

I'm with you, we're all still human beings operating these
It doesnt hurt to say a few words on behalf on someone at the other end.  If you don't have that within yourself, and you don't need it in return, you're a cold and lost person. 
ENFJ here, miss human contact

No, I like to feel human thank you. I wear my jeans or better.
I am not the type who wants to go around sloppily all day. It makes all the difference in your outlook as to how you dress and your personality.
How nice is this keyboard? Nice light touch?
I have a regular Microsoft ergonomic one now but I'm thinking I should probably get a replacement and use mine as a backup. 
Its human nature to impose on other people whats right for yourself!

Even when its not asked for.  Maybe some people like to surround themselves with nonsense and chaos, where as I like peace and quiet!  I think people who like working with other people are either pretending or just plain crazy! 


sorry, you are assigning human logic/emotions to animals...
seal mothers do not go nearly insane with fear and pain as they watch their babies being clubbed to death in front of them. - you've got to be kidding. Animals are incapable of the complexities of logic and emotion to get to that conclusion. If you want something to be frantic about, go to Africa and see the abandoned newborn infants piled in chicken wire crates in the hospital. Let's get priorities in order and no, a boy is not a dog or a pig or a rat.


You're human. Blanks happen. Should never be penalized for them. nm

Sorry. I am human and I make mistakes like everyone else. Obviously I meant "two." nm

I'd love to agree, but I can't. I do think some doctors are aware a human being is transcribi
for them, but I think it is far from the majority. 
When I worked for a vet. guy had dog allergy tested and dog was allergic to human dander. No kidding

And create enormous amounts of trash and pollution. Human overbreeding is doing us in. nm

The people proofing are human. Humans make mistakes daily.

I wouldn't take a position that docked for errors. We're all human, not infallible.

Anyone know higher-up contact names at Dept. of Health and Human Services..sm
this is who created HIPAA. Anyone willing to email or write any of these people in regard to these offshoring issues and how the doctors should be required to inform the patient when their medical information is leaving the country in order to be transcribed. HIPAA was created with privacy and protection as its main purpose, but ironically once the work leaves the country, this means nothing. The Dept. of Health and Human Services (HIPAA) needs to step up and do the right thing here in the best interest of our country's citizens, while preserving many U.S. transcriptionists who will lose their jobs if no changes are made.
I was nice today, and people were nice to me.
If you steer away from the nastiness, there are a few nice and encouraging posts in there. 
HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION RULES IN FAVOR OF PAST EMPLOYEE OF DEVENTURE

NOT GOOD!!!


But YOU are the one doing all the name calling
She simply asked you to knock it off....as so many of us would like to echo.  Get over yourself and quit knocking everyone who posts on the board.  There are some of us who would like to be informed and knowledgeable about our sister MTs and our industry as a whole.  If you are not one of them, don't waste your time or our time by coming to this board at all, okay?  Your whining is annoying
Hey, who is this guy calling old! How

Name calling
Name Calling or Substitutions of Names or Moral Labels:

This technique attempts to arouse prejudices in an audience by labeling the object of the propaganda campaign as something the target audience fears, hates, loathes, or finds undesirable.

Dangers inherent in name calling: In its extreme form, name calling may indicate that the propagandist has lost his sense of proportion or IS UNABLE TO CONDUCT A POSITIVE CAMPAIGN INTELLIGENTLY.

Before using this technique, the propagandist must weigh the benefits against the possible harmful results.
Have you tried calling?
I know when I had A problem they were able to answer my questions. Have you tried calling them? :)
If he keeps calling you, tell him

him for harassment.  I'm pretty sure he would not have handed the title over like that without his money.  If she owed him money, where is his proof? receipts showing balance due? Please do not hand over money to someone who may well be a heartless opportunist.


I'm very sorry for your loss.  Be well.


calling you?
they say that girls in the trailer park go round the outside, round the outside.  I wouldn't be bragging about servicing the neighborhood's husbands. 
No need for name-calling here.
The tone of this chain is not malicious nor judgemental.  Please don't come on here carelessly calling people names.  This woman had a life or death situation on her hands and handled it the best way she could.  She came here to help another human being in trouble by giving her valuable first-hand information.  In other threads, this malicious tone may be okay, but not here, okay?  Please just stay away if you can't bear the comments, okay?  These people are hurt enough already.  Thank you.
OK without the name calling....sorry
So do you think a nationalized health plan is a good thing for this country?
No name-calling, please. NM

What does name calling accomplish. It seems like you and another
poster calling a person names is no better than the cherry picker.
Why the name calling? You are sad. The comment sm
was made because he was for spheris and the outsouring they do, and yes they don't advertise jobs here because they outsoure. You are the one that needs to do some soul seardhing and grow up.
I don't think ANY of the name-calling or slurs is okay.

It seems like as soon as someone posts something against the "prevailing opinion," it's okay to call names and make all kinds of nasty remarks about them personally.  Not just in this topic, but in many others.  There seems to be an attitude of "they said something bad first, so it's okay to say the most hateful and hurtful thing I can think of."


I disagree with your post above, but I certainly wouldn't call you a name or imply that you are deficient, lacking, or stupid in some way for having that opinion.


I don't personally think the "single mother" is relevant to the topic at all.  It's a bad thing to have happened REGARDLESS of the person's age, marital status, or number of children, but I also don't think it's EXTRA bad because she's a single mother - and I don't think that's how she meant it.


? about "cold calling."

For those of you who have acquired accts through cold calling, what do you suggesting saying?  I did get one account this way, but cant remember how I managed.  Any tips appreciated!


 


Thanks,


Florida girl!


who's whining here besides you. i'm calling

re: Susie-LD Calling
This is true--we were all told to switch to a LD carrier by our transcription company to use for dictation and many of us were contacted by the phone company withing 4 to 5 months of doing this and told that we could not use it for business purposes. They actually called the numbers and knew that we were calling various places for dictation so some of use were switched back to using the 800 numbers
You are calling me perverted
when you come on this board with all of this stupid, juvenile crap. You really need to grow up.
Who are you calling stupid?
Well, if they are soooo stupid, explain how they are the largest transcription company in the US?

Perhaps you know something about the packet that we don't, because in case you didn't know this - NO ONE GOT THEIR PACKET YET! DUH - Talk about stupid - look in the mirror.

How do YOU know so much, huh?

PS - While looking in the mirror, go brush those yellow-stained teeth, comb that nasty wirey, brillo-pad hair, squeeze some of this nasty whiteheads, and get a face lift - because ain't no one want someone like you working for them!
I agree with you about calling 911. sm

Have it checked out.


Here's what fortunately happened to my stubborn sister.


She just happened to luck out because she was in a room full of people at a big birthday bash for a friend. She didn't feel good, a bit of a nagging headache, but thought it was no big deal until her head started to ache so bad that she dropped into a chair. She was about 5 blocks from the hospital at the time and someone called rescue. She had a brain aneurysm rupture, but she made it. After a month in the hospital she is "normal" with only a slight problem with short term memory.


The "moral" of this story is that if my stubborn sister had been home by herself, thinking, "maybe something is wrong" she would have taken an aspirin and went to lie down.


Don't mess with chest pain. Better to find out that you've pulled a muscle or something.


"I am trying to tell him he needs to go to the ER." This is a quote from OP who is now calling
