My hands get cold, and typing with cold muscles is like (sm)
running or other exercise when not warmed up. I wear thin, warm gloves with the fingertips cut out to keep my hands & knuckles warm. For muscle pains in the shoulders, neck, biceps, etc, try Flexall cream - I find it to be VERY effective. Also try slight changes in chair height, keyboard height and angle, and monitor height. I found if I enlarge the print on my screen, it keeps me from hunching forward to try to read it. (CTL + scroll up or down on mouse wheel to make print bigger or smaller. It will not affect the size of the finished product.) Frequent "mini-breaks" to do other chores: filing etc. if in an office, quick household task if working at home, also helps relieve repetitive stress. A few months ago I thought my typing days were numbered due to various pains & arthritis; now I can work pain-free for up to 11 hours in a day. Good luck! :)
Northern Idaho!

It reminded me of TV show "Northern Exposure".  Rugged people, rugged landscape, natural beauty!  Absolutely fantastic!


Northern NJ Rate
Hi - Can anyone offer insight as to what a fair per page rate would be for a neuro office in northern NJ?  I would rather charge per line, but some of their other transcriptionists charge them per page, and I want to be competitive.  Thanks!
Northern NJ rates

Hi,


I freelance for 2 different doctor's, one in Manhattan and the other in Brooklyn, NY, although not Jersey I charge 2.25 and 2.50 per page. I am not sure if this is the going rate as I have not raised my rates in 3 years. I guess I am just happy to have them pay on time...


Northern Indiana here, very humid. nm

Northern California Clinic

 


If this information is correct, I  for one am happy if my employer makes money.  Let's take a poll...has anyone out there ever benefitted from working for a company that lost money/had to go belly up? 


This is how it is in Arizona
Welcome to an Arizona summer-- the electric meter spins itself off the pole and the utility companies dance with glee.  My AC went out a week ago (naturally on the weekend) and it was over 90 degrees in the house with the swamp cooler going full blast.  Come on, move to Arizona everybody----.  The Chamber of Commerce doesn't tell you about THIS part!
Don't come to Arizona
It is the same here-- and all the Calif. people ARE moving here-- making it that much worse. I want to get out of here, too.
YES IN ARIZONA

9 p.m. in northern Wisconsin and it's 82 and HUMID, oh dear..nm

Depends on where you are. In northern IL..that is starting pay. But I'd not believe the poster
said they made that 20 years ago.  Wages were not that high back then.
No, I'm in Philadelphia now, but I loved the northern' NYC 'burbs!

southern, northern, eastern, western--sm
what difference does it make where anybody is from...how about being a *bleeding heart* for ALL life...not just human and not just animals. God gave everything that breathes life, and we should respect that. human or animal. JMO

Northern Counties Secretarial Services - MN

Anybody ever work for Northern Counties Secretarial Services in Minnesota in the 90s?  Used to be what seemed like a great company, but in the end, they did a few really good MTs dirty. 


Arizona fires
You all have probably seen the horrible Arizona fires on TV.  I can see the smoke and flames from my house-- and could be in its path if the wind changes.  There is a meeting at the high school tonight regarding fire info.  Even though I am SO tired of doing transcription, I would much rather be home doing it than attending a fire meeting--.

Move to Arizona. Don't the heater too much here!!!nm

A $300+ bill is typical for us in Arizona. sm

We use the payment plan so our bill is the same every month. They average all 12 months and come up with a month payment.  Our winter bills usually would be as low as $70 if we weren't on the payment plan.


Can't live here without AC - no way, no how.


ocean front property in Arizona, too??
are ya a little bit country - haha -- gotta love George Strait!! i'm with ya all the way on those proposals!!
Did anyone attend AIBT in Arizona to learn
Just wondering if any of my old classmates come to this board. Thanks
I loved Arizona - I lived in Tucson....sm

see?  I'm telling ya, it's a small world.  I spent nearly 10 years out west in the 1970s.....Tucson for 3 years (worked at Pima College and other places), Santa Fe, and Denver.  Came back to the east coast in 1980!!  In Tucson I also worked for Desert Cycles, a dirt bike store on Speedway!!!  Flagstaff was a tad too cold for me.  *lol*


 


depends which part you come from, you show northern Italian. Sicialians do things different.

Sedona, Arizona is awesome this time of year.

Would you walk three blocks in 110 degrees at 3 p.m. in Arizona - no trees, no breeze, no wet SM

except for sweat.  It's brutal. 


Now is 110 and supposed to get hotter.  Yesterday was 113 in the shade


Monsoon FINALLY hits Arizona. Microburst winds & rain.

Anybody live where it's cold?

cold feet
I bought a cheap electric heater and run it pointing towards my feet.
Cold fingers
Even though I keep my house comfortable, I find my fingers getting cold when I type.  Is it just me. Does anyone have any suggestions.
Cold in Colorado! ...
Burr is right!  I'm in northern/central Colorado, I think it is about 5 degree now with light snow ... but the wind is dying down.  Horrible hurricane type winds the last few days.  Thanks for mentioning us Coloradans!!  :)
Cold in the midwest too
I heard on the TV that Cedar Rapids (eastern IA) had temp of -17 with a wind chill of -30 this morning! BRR!
Old people who are cold?

cold fingers
All the time when I start out before the work area is sufficiently warmed up with the SPACE HEATER. Space heater essential to get fingers going.
How about a cold remedy?
I get great relief from colds with Zicam. (I also take 50 mg of oral zinc, which boosts the immune system). I use the Zicam when the cold is in my nose, with runny nose, sneezing, congestion. To open your sinuses you might want to try Rhinocort. You'll need a Rx for it, but it is good stuff. It's safer than Afrin (which works great but can't be used for more than three days, and can raise your BP). Oh, and chicken soup may help.

Hope you are feeling better soon.
Mine gets cold too

Not sure why just the right hand.  I have mild Raynauds though it is worse in my toes - I have to wear wool socks or slippers while I work. 


Do you have cold intolerance in your hands or feet any other time?


Yes, I do have cold intolerance
I've been tested for thyroid, but it comes back okay.  Hands always cold, but when typing the right one becomes much colder than the left, feels somewhat numbish, and painful in the wrist.  I'm going to try making a wrist warmer with rice in it to heat in the microwave to see if that helps.
Cold in California

Chance of snow tonight near Fresno.  I know this is not your kind of cold, but for us it's unusual.
