Thank you to MT Stars for not only being willing to let us express our opinions, but also for not censoring them.  This bulletin board has more frank and direct information regarding working conditions and companies as an MT that without MT Stars, there would be a lot of wool pulled over MTs eyes.  This board is 100 times more valuable than paid boards, because paid boards are so worried about stepping on any toes.

I am sure it is very much appreciated by all of the hardworking MTs who visit this site .

My top 10 reasons for being perfectly happy and satisfied with my employer!!!

However, I am truly spineless.  I could not quit because, alas, I am not the only one I'm responsible for here at home.  So, after multiple conversations with folks at work on how they can help to alleviate some of my stress, here I am pounding the keys and probably will continue for a while anyway.  I have let a lot of people down, myself included, with my actions...and not all are work related.  I'm going through some difficult times, but I'm sure there are others out there going through much, much worse. 

I have started taking an anti-anxiety medication though, Lexapro, in the hopes that I can get a grip on my emotions because they do tend to mutate into this huge out-of-control entity and, again, it's not all work related.  I can't remember the last time I did something for me, and apparently if I don't start putting myself first, I'm headed down a very slippery slope.

So, yeah, one day at a time here.  I really appreciate the positive vibes though and I hope everyone else out there is taking care of themselves. 

I do love these other two docs, it's just that this one is making me nuts. Knowing that the OM has already talked to her about this twice, mentioning to me as well that she is not comfortable with the HIPAA issue, I though might give some more leverage to the OM. I also thought that was less personal than me saying something like "I find this disrespectful to myself as a transcriptionist."

I appreciate the insight. Thanks!

Twas the night of Thanksgiving, but I just couldn't sleep.
I tried counting backwards, I tried counting sheep.

 
The leftovers beckoned--the dark meat and white
but I fought the temptation with all of my might.
 

Tossing and turning with anticipation,
the thought of a snack became infatuation.


So I raced to the kitchen, flung open the door
and gazed at the fridge, full of goodies galore.
I gobbled up turkey and buttered potatoes,
pickles, and carrots, beans, and tomatoes.

I felt myself swelling so plump and so round,
'til all of a sudden, I rose off the ground.

I crashed through the ceiling, floating into the sky
with a mouthful of pudding and a handful of pie.

But I managed to yell as I soared past the trees,
Happy eating to all--pass the cranberries, please!

May your stuffing be tasty, may your turkey be plump.
May your potatoes 'n gravy have nary a lump.

May your yams be delicious, may your pies take the prize,
May your Thanksgiving dinner stay off of your thighs.

 

WISHING YOU ALL A THANKFUL THANKSGIVING

You asked for opinions, so I'll give you mine. I know you have decided you won't go, but here is my take on that issue. You may not like your stepmother or her children. But your father is still your father. My Dad died just over 2 years ago. What I wouldn't give to have him back just for a Thanksgiving Day. You can get over your personal issues with your step family for the weekend and go and be with your father if you choose. Or you can let these "issues" get to you and choose not to go. Your father won't be here forever. None of us will. Love him while you can. Love yourself enough to be big enough to go and see him. You will never regret that. You WILL regret one day that you didn't go, and you won't be able to change it. You DID ask for opinions. That's all. Please reconsider. You don't have to stoop to your stepmother's level. Be the bigger person. LOVE YOUR DAD WHILE HE IS STILL HERE!!!! Be THANKFUL for him.Off my soapbox. Peace.

Thank you very much. I actually found a pretty good sample. I also found some sites in archives.

Thanks (once again) to all you kind MTs.

a good time to show the house.  All during the holidays, with families visiting and such, is a very good time for homes to sell.

It is absolutely HER job to show your house.  She should also only be bringing pre-qualified buyers.  She should also abide by your request regarding when the house may be shown.  After 3 is certainly not unreasonable, assuming you aren't including weekends in that.  Many buyers are out and looking earlier on weekends. 

In any case, I would call her broker and change agents NOW, if I were you.  Why waste another few weeks, or even days, when it is only delaying the sale of your home.

Just my opinion. 

Not much to many maybe, but my husband still surprises me sometimes.

He works 3rd shift as a dock supervisor at a local shipping company that's only about a mile from our house. He doesn't like to think of himself as "supervisor" because he's always been a team player.

Because they load trucks to ship out the next morning, he had the night before Thanksgiving off, but had to go in at 8:00 p.m. on Thanksgiving night. "Lunch Break" is right around midnight and he found out that one of the younger single guys hadn't had Thanksgiving dinner because he had to stick around to go to work instead of going to visit family.

So I hear a bit of commotion in my kitchen around 1:00 a.m. and find that  my husband had brought the guy to the house and had warmed up Thanksgiving Dinner for their lunch break.

Now isn't that just too sweet?

Of course they left me the dishes, but oh well.
