from my hospital either. I had just gotten up and turned on the TV and Charlie Gibson was on, which was weird, because it was a little after 9:00 and he should have been off. He was talking about the building being hit, and I saw the second plane live.
I was in such shock I could barely tear myself from the TV to work. Nobody from the hospital called or emailed about it that day or ever. It was the strangest thing.

If you e-mailed me about this I e-mailed you back
yesterday.
I have an adjustable keyboard tray. My parents bought it for me for Christmas years ago and I don't know where they got it and they are no longer living for me to ask. If you go to any office supply website and Google adjustable keyboard trays you'll find several. You really don't need an adjustable tray, especially since with a pillow on top you really just need a support for the pillow.
I prop my pillow on top of my tray and then put my keyboard on the pillow. If you just a firm pillow your keyboard will bounce and you'll spend all day chasing it, so use a pillow that is sort of squishy.
I'm not sure why, but I find I sit with my back against the chair when I use a pillow. The pillow absorbs the stress from your fingers and wrists, adds support for your arms and shoulders and I find I'm more relaxed and more productive.
The so-called "reality show" is the lowest form of so-called entertainment in recent years
I hate them. They've ruined TV.
I e-mailed someone I know
On one account I work on, it's a *.dot file (template) she created that has a pop-up screen that asks for things like Patient Name, MR #, MD name, etc. You just fill in the info and the macro snaps everything into the template and you're ready to go.
I asked her if she learned this through the Word Help file or books, and which ones. As soon as she gets back to me, I'll let you know. This is considered one of those time savers.
I e-mailed you.

I E-mailed You.
If you don't receive my e-mail, feel free to e-mail me through here :o).
Why can't they be mailed to you?
It is not that expensive to put the pay stubs in an envelope and use snail mail. Also, why can't they be sent by email?
Anyone have an inkling when these will be mailed out?
xx
I e-mailed you...sure hope you got it!
Hugs,

Mine were mailed to me also.
The sender obviously wants proof it was received. I receive Certified mail from my employer when it is important such as forms to fill out, etc. Doesn't have to mean dooms day.
Hayseed... I e-mailed ya'
re: cropping avatar.... Thanks. 
To the person who e-mailed me
I'm not comfortable at this time giving out the name of the company. I will say that it is a very small company in Georgia, in the Atlanta area. This individual is very vindictive and spiteful, apparently with no life of their own. If, however, you want to e-mail me the name of the company with which you have had problems, I will be happy to either confirm or deny that it is the same company.
Are your checks being mailed? If so,
check the date it was postmarked. Check with your company and see when they mail your checks, then count the days it took to receive it. If it is taking too long, complain to the Post Office!!!
We are having a problem with our checks. My husband's checks get mailed on a Friday, but he may not receive them until a week or later, if he receives them at all!!! As of today, he is missing another check that was mailed 12/31. Four checks have been lost in the mail since they put the new rates into effect. Of course, his company stops payment on them, costing them more money, and then re-issues another check. He used to get them a day or 2 after they were mailed before the new rates. This puts us in a bind, too. His checks come from 45 miles away.
I finally went on line and placed 2 complaints, as I was missing 2 checks during the past few months, too. Mine come from 11 miles away.All our mail goes to a central post office, 50 miles away and that is one of my complaints I placed. Three days for a letter to go from my home town to my home town is ridiculous. 
So, it may not be your company's fault, but the good ole post office.
I just e-mailed you with instructions
for the AutoText entries. You cannot use outside programs (text expanders, shorthand, etc.) with InScribe. It's kind of a long process to add AutoText, so I save up 25 or 30 and enter them all at once, usually.
My tapes are mailed
and I E-mail the reports back. Works great plus cuts down on gas.
my tapes are mailed
I have the same deal. They mail me the tapes and I email the work back.
I agree. I just e-mailed her
Yes, it IS high here. I've been here 37 years (life long) and it never ceases to amaze me. It's all the retirees driving the cost up.
anyone know the deadlines for the W2s/1099s to be mailed out by? nm

Just e-mailed the Oprah! show
I just finished posting a comment to the Oprah! Show. If/when (I'm an optimist!) I get a response, I'll be letting y'all know. Happy Wednesday! 
Thank you to the 2 who e-mailed me! I've applied.

Have you ever been e-mailed pictures of someone in your company
and then wish you hadn't looked?
I was in the same situation. I E mailed my resignation.
Offer up a small notice. They still have your last paycheck to send you and they sound really nasty. Do the minimal amount to do for them, be professional to them and then get out as quick as you can. Remember, though, if you want your check, just do what you can to make sure you seem professional and not stooping to their level. But if you are happily leaving, e mail notice ASAP and forget about them except for your small notice obligation and focus mentally on your blessings. This will get you through the difficult time left with them. THen let go of them and forget them. Trust me. I had trust issues with jobs for 6 months after a bad experience with 1 MTSO, and am just letting go now. Above all, preserve your self-esteem, be professional and courteous, but get out. Good luck!
Wow, what a great site....always mailed mine in but think - sm
I will start doing this. Actually I have not paid at all this year, so maybe I will start now and get a little in the "pot" so to speak. Thanks for the tip, a weekly or bi-monthly payment will certainly help ease the pain and make it more "normal".
I e mailed the Oprah show about a year ago sm
I got an automated response and that was it. I have always loved Oprah, but she is into helping kids in other countries, not so into helping here.
someone just e-mailed me "how to write a letter to your Senator" -
I responded to this e-mail and attached a sample for her (Sarah) to send to her Senator, but came back as not deliverable. Just speak from your heart when you write. Be respectful, "Dear Senator, thank you for representing our state" And then tell your story so to speak, how things are effecting you. That bringing IT jobs (not just MT, but anything that contains our private information, credit card processing, debt collection, etc.) would not only deter the rampant increase in identity and medical identity theft, but would bring American jobs back to America, American MONEY back to America to be spent in America! Good luck to all
Most often direct deposit into your account or a regular mailed check. nm

It's time we all called NJ. I called
They can't provide anything in writing.
Nobody knows anything - keep telling you to call your supervisor.
I smell something worse than New Orleans coming from NJ.
E-mailed glossary from work computer to PC but glossary isn't readable.
After literally two days of working on this, finally got my glossary to my personal computer and into IT V Pro which I upgraded (thank you Christina!!!). But my entries are all garbled.
I hope this isn't some safety feature used by my national to keep us from using company glossaries though I did create this myself over three years.
Job starts in three days (radiology) and I so need this glossary. Hate to start over again...as you well know.
Anyone? TIA :)
Gerger-Moretti (now just Moretti) e-mailed me for almost a>>>
year after my short stint with them. I was especially amused when they announced that MTs would NOT BE PAID for any reports with any errors regarding account specifics (and 1 VA account had more than 90 pages of account/doctor specifics- and 100s of docs!!!). Glad I got out when I did.
Some companies need to get a grip.
I think all new mts should be called
mt wannabe (that's me) I wannabe, but feel like I will never get this down ever.... my job is so hard that my day is such a breeze !!!!!!
he just called nm
nmn
I called them
with my complaints and filed an Employee Complaint form but they say that there are no problems, they are only getting isolated complaints -so EVERYONE who has a complaint needs to call them and follow up with a filed written Employee Complaint.
seems to me if he called YOU, he should already know your name...sm
just my opinion. I hate these calls and mostly never answer until it becomes three or four times a day, then I answer and I am not nice. they usually do not call back after that. It has been relatively quiet around here for a while now...knock on wood. lol
Can you tell me what else it's called please?
That might explain why I didn't get such good results on my search.
that's called....
the old bait and switch!! They ALL do that! :(
They are called.....sm
They are referred to as non-word utterances. And if you want to belong to a forum that is not just MT, I own one at Google Groups called the Legal, Medical, and General Transcription forum. The URL is http://groups.google.com/group/Legal-Medical-General-Transcription?hl=en
Yes, I have what are called
Druscens and I do not see them, only can be seen with the lamp exam physician does. These can be started on macular degeneration. My vision is excellent but knowing what I do, make sure I take eye vitamin, eat leafy greens, no smoking and wear sunglasses out always.
You called her? LOL.
x
Have you called your QA to ask about it?
x
That was not called for.
Your are totally wrong for berating this person the way you did.
I was called....sm
but called and told them I was sick. I wasn't really but how do they know? I have other things to do.
I called about it . . .
and had information sent to me. From the commercials I thought it was a non-invasive procedure, but it is very similar to a traditional facelift. They do say the incisions are smaller, so healing is quicker. They also say the scars are less noticible. The before and after photos look incredibly good to me. I'm still considering it, and if I wasn't such a chicken I might just do it.
Have you ever just called a
business and just interviewed them before you applied so they could interview you? Does that make sense.? I may have an in-house transcription job. They told me that everything was looking in my favor, but they are still interviewing and will let me know for sure Friday. They offered a pretty good wage and I would take it but if I can find something closer to home even if a little less pay I would go for that too. I have been looking into businesses that have nothing to do with transcription. I am thinking about calling the local banks and seeing if there are any entry-level positions available for data entry, administrative assisting, clerk. I don't have an accounting degree of business degree, just extensive computer knowledge that transcription requires. I really don't know what to ask for to tell the truth. The local banks never advertise for help but I do see new people in there from time to time.
I have also been looking to get my CNA certificate renewed which I may just do. I was going to call the nursing homes here and see what the starting pay would be, what the patient/aide ratio is, what the hours would be like.
To tell the truth, I am not making it with these home jobs. I have already been through 3 companies. I never had a work history like that before. Before I came home, I stayed with 1 place for 8 years, then another place for 6 years before that. I hate jumping around and most of all, I hate babysitting my computer for work. I want 8 hours then be done.
just called the bank and
Yeah, they called me twice
not possible to block a "100" number and that is all there is. It is weird.
Here it's called Transcam (sm)
Do a search at the top of the board. You'll get plenty of information on their scam.
Isn't that called profit
They charge the hospital more than they pay us.... yes.....don't understand what is supposed to be bad about that. It's called profit. As far as calculating the lines differently for the MT versus how they count them for the hospital for billing, there is nothing illegal about that and there is nothing that says they have to calculate the lines the same way.
well, they called me yesterday, but (sm)
I wasn't here. So, she left a message, stating that if I had any questions regarding the new plan, I could call them back. I aint even gonna bother...just see what happens when it happens. But, if anyone else does talk with them, I'd love to know what they have to say! Good day all!
