    Also LOVE LOVE ESCRIPTION and make good money but...
    Can I ask how you sit there for 8 hours. Lately, I'm having a motivation problem. When I focus, I can rack up the lines, but lately, I get so easily distracted. My mind wanders and I struggle to get my lines. Any tips on how you stay productive who do you work for?? I work for Transcend.
    Good one--I love it!
    Although I won't offer for her to knock on my door whenever she wants to talk. I've finally managed to play it "cool" enough so she doesn't knock on my door every day now. She did that in the beginning. When I moved in she said she was so glad I moved in and she was so lonely. As soon as she would get home from work she would come straight to my door and ask what was for dinner. I finally managed to get it across that I was working and on the "time clock". Plus every time she wants to talk she always wants to bad mouth her exhusband with choice words or even worse talk about new men and sex and how much they want her. Kinda sad really. I started letting my eyes glaze over when she did that. She got the hint I'm sure but she just can't help herself. It is all she wants to talk about. And I must say hearing her talk about it is about like imagining my parents in that situation. I just don't want to know. Ugh.
    OMG I **love** BBQ! It smells so GOOD!

    I love the Good Times reruns...sm
    glad that TVLand is showing them now!
    Good for you. I love my local at home job.

    I do VR, love it, make good money at it
    and I have no idea why people who do not do, have not done, don’t plan on doing talk so much against it.
    I love hearing good news! Congrats to you BOTH! NM

    Boy, would love to know your story, its not good to harbor such hatred - sm
    and resentment, does not do anybody any good. You, of course, are entitled to your opinion but I doubt you will find many that agree with you. Chill out.
    good idea with the potpourri, love the scent of cinnamon
      I also like peach and orange smells too, but they never seem to last with the candles or other glade air fresheners, and the expense is too much.  I have two animals and a litter box to cover.  Those air things with the fan do not work, nor does the thing that squirts out scent periodically, waste of money.
    Hahahah! Are they good Italian folk? I LOVE me some garlic!!
    I put garlic in practically everything, short of desserts!
    The sex is too good. LOL Besides, I'm a committed girl. I do love him. He's just a jerk somet

    Lucky. I love long reports. I thought I got a good one, but it was a 1.5 minute
    report with 12 minutes of dead air. Sit here and do nothing. For free.
    Good for you, I love people who rescue homeless pets. I take in cats myself

    Thanks again.

    Thanks again.
    I love procedures, colonscopes, EGDs, cardiac caths - this stuff earns me the good money, ESL or no!

    love, love, love the show. hate american idol. this show is for real.
    the only reason i entertained watching it was because of mark burnett and as usual he has such genious casting and editing. btw, don't know who anything about "metal" music but these performers make me like it. love marty and jd as performers. HATE JESSICA. susie is so nice and so emotional. it seems they all support each other and enjoy each others skills. regarding ty and bob marley, ty was excellent but he also lucked out on the song! bob marley was genious too and his music is very easy to listen to. i don't like 3/4 of what the others are given to sing but their performances make me love the music. dave navarro shines on this show, very gracious for the most part and letting the contestants down easy when they have to leave. he was great last night with brandon (?). sweet, sweet show. i am so impressed with everyone involved.
    Yep that's it, 4000. Love, love love the zoom
    But I feel like a dork typing...every time I try to type But it is coming out as Nut!
    I love it too - love doing my nails 5 hours a day and staying awake

    Love NOT getting paid while sitting doing my nails too.  It's a real turn on.


    I tell all my friends to try it -- sit in front of your computer while you have no money to pay your rent and instead do your nails, you get a real buzz down in the pit of your stomach.


     


    People either love it or hate it. I personally love it
    but I know a lot of people say you cannot make any money on it and will not work on it. I do okay. I'm obviously not getting rich but I am making a living. I found it easier than Dictaphone and faster such in downloading and uploading job and you only have to log on one system and not like Dictaphone where you have to log onto the VPN and then log onto the program. It's always worth a try, but yes, the biggest complaint I hear is that no one can make a living and the cpl isn't that great.
    I went back in house and love it. I love not being
    secluded. I was working in my PJs, less organized and feel much better now that I get up and dress for work and see people (even those in traffic aren't so bad anymore). I find that I have more of a life now, and my family says that I spend more time with them now.

    Working at home served its purpose for a long time; I was ready to go out into the world again now that I have no little ones at home.
    BD WONG! I love him! I love all CSI and Law and Orders!
    I am so addicted. I actually schedule my job and family around the shows LOL.
    That is a good offer. Pay is not that good at UIMC. Good luck! nm

    Love love love my chair
    The arms can be lowered so they won't be in your way, I don't know about the tilt limiter. But I bought my off ebay about 6 years ago and can't do without it. No I do not think you can find another chair that even compares to the aeron, changed my working life completely, no sore back or butt. You won't regret it, but you will if you go for a cheap imitation.
    LOL. I love it. I also love the song sm
    I wouldn't take nothing for my journey now. Miss the Happy Goodmans!
    Repeat after me: I love my job, I love my job. :) nm

    You can love a job and still love being home! sm

    I got into medical transcription for many reasons.  Yes, one was that I wanted to be home with my children, another was that I wanted to be in the medical field, and yet another was this just fits me.  Medical terminology and grammar are two things that have always come easily to me.  So, this fits.  I can work early, early mornings and late nights when they are asleep.  Also during afternoon naps.  Yeah, doesn't leave a heck of a lot of time for myself, but THAT is a sacrifice I am willing to make, leaving my kids for someone else to raise/care for all day wasn't. 


    I do not love money but I love what it can buy
    for me. I work 4 days a week now and was not bringing home what I wanted every 2 weeks, for some reason that is at least 1,000.00. I just decided to turn up the speed and put my mind to doing at least 3000 lines a day and figured by that should get what I want in the pay line. Worked well for me. I tell people if you want to talk with me call before I go to work, do not let outside influences bother me during my hours. Other than a bathroom break, glass of water, here for the straight 8.
    I love Google and I love MTs
    Okay, who in their right mind would not only discuss but have passionate opinions about hyphens and apostrophes? I love it!

    Anyway, in googling grammar rules I found numerous references that two days' time would not but hyphenated but when used as a modifier like two-day history, it would be.

    I remember telling an OB nurse friend of mine about fretting over 38 weeks pregnancy and whether the hyphen belonged in there and she just laughed and said she thinks she would get the point either way. Well harumph!

    Any rose gardeners out there? Good roses that are disease proof and smell good?
    I heard good things about Knockout Rose but they don't smell too much like traditional rose.  Supposedly blooms all season.

    Agree with other poster.. good price..good service
    I definitely think they are one of the best out there. We also have been talked through issues over the phone and also had a warranty in which they came out and fixed it right at our home. My only complaint..and I am sorry for saying this.. but... when you call their customer service 9 out of 10 times...you get someone who barely speaks English and I just hate that. I think that is true of a lot of customer support centers these days, ironically they are rarely American anymore. I am not prejudice at all. I just find it frustrating to call in for help and the help you get barely understands you and you do not understand them, thus making the experience very frustrating..
    Expensive is right -- around $300 per credit hour! But they do have a good rep. Good luck! nm

    Good for you. Sounds very interesting and a good chance of pace - sm

    but I live in the northeast and not much need for that where I live.  I also live in a small town so that limits my options.  I have spent the last couple of years as a substitute teacher to supplement my MT job and just completed 4-1/2 months as a long term sub which I enjoyed and was a change of pace from MT.  The only problem is as a sub or ed tech you only get paid during the school year so I would have to keep my MT job for summers and school vacations.  With the way things are going in the MT world I hate to rely solely on that.  I don't want to find myself without any job whatsoever.   


    Thanks for all the responses.    


    8 is NOT good if never going any higher - good to get the rust out in the short term though

    Is the dictation quality good, are the dictators good, are you
    a newbie and you still have to look up lots of words ....   The very first day I typed, with absolutely no education way back when, when you didn't have to have a degree/certificate or previous experience, I typed 665 lines.  This was without an expander and I was not a fast typist.   I can do 1000 lines in about 4 hours now on average. 
    LOL! Well, good! I've done ONE good thing today, then. NM

    Yep, a good MTSO will get rid of the crappy doctor, not the good MT...sm
    unfortunately, there aren't many MTSOs out there who will confront a poor dictator and nip it in the bud to begin with.

    In the old days we used to do this all the time. A doctor was put on report and told to shape up and if he didn't he would either be charged more because they had to pay an MT more to do his lousy dictation, or he was always given the option to do his own reports if he wouldn't comply.

    Believe it or not, almost every physician my former company did this to straightened up their act became good dictators and found that it was actually less stressful and less time consuming for them too!!

    The MTSOs just don't have the guts to do this anymore... and they should. I can make more money on good dictators with a lower line rate than crappy dictators at a higher rate, and would rather have the better dictators and lower rate than the other... it's a win-win for both the MT and MTSO because the MT is making more money per hour and the MTSO gets to pay less for her MTs and make a better profit. I can't believe the MTSOs haven't figured this one out.
    This is not a good choice. There are too many good schools

    that have proven their worth. Andrews, MTEC and even Career Step, but I would not choose a school that has spammed the internet in every crack there is as the one you have mentioned.  Find some graduates and see what they have to say.  Go to mtchat.com and do a search of this school. 


    Thank you too! A good laugh is a good thing.
