That made absolutely no sense..i rest my case..dumb MTs!

I absolutely agree with you. You've made it grammatically correct
hope this all comes through.

Your change is much better than the one suggested below which totally changes the sentence and would not be correct in my opinion.

that would be Tears Again nm

Peace...out.

I'm in tears over Elliott
What a great, great guy. I'm sorry, but Kat sure came off poorly tonight, and her mother's little "take that" for the camera while Elliott was getting his goodbye was in very poor taste. I would have loved to have had Taylor and Elliott in the finals together. I would have been happy no matter who won then. I have a 19-year-old son, and I'd be so, so proud to have him carry himself with the dignity that Elliott did tonight. I'm am so sad for him, but I hope that something good comes for him out of this.

thanks, i need it. I'm in tears today

fractures, tears..yada
I broke my R hand about 15 years back. Had to work, was the only one bringing in the money as my ex boyfriend was laid off. So I wrapped my hand and went to work. I would transcribe until it hurt so much that I had to take a break. Went to the ladies room, put cold water on it and went back to work. In 2003, I sustained a R rotator cuff tear. No medical insurance and the only one, once again, bringing in the money. I put my R arm in a sling and worked. Had to pick up my R hand and place it on the keyboard and then was able to type. Took it one step at a time. You can do it..Over the years, when I have had trials and tribulations, I have realized when you need to make the money, you will do it..whether in physical or emotional pain.

OMG, I'm in tears I'm laughing so hard!
That is so funny!

Wow! you brought tears to my eyes sm
I was all ready to be blasted and your post actually brought tears to my eyes. I know it isn't ME because the same ME was barely making $10 an hour average on the account I was assigned before I got the one I'm on now and have been on for the last 2 years. I thank my higher power every day for my luck and will never forget that awful account I had before this one.

This brought tears to my eyes. sm
I loved this. I love animals and this shows how loving an animal can be.

This was good. There is no time for tears, arguments when you are
I'd throw him out, change the locks, he'll figure out what to do.

Don't look back.

I loved it. Brought tears to my eyes nm

Thank you all for your support... it brought tears to my eyes.

Seriously, I really appreciate all your supportive advice and thoughts! I have decided after being treated like this and putting up with it for too long, to look for another job or maybe even another career. I wish I could quit on them right on the spot without notice, but I have decided to show them what class or professionalism is, even in this bad situation. (Of course, if they do not pay me, then I will quit immediately.) I can only hope they treat their next MT with some courtesy and respect which we all deserve.

Hugs to you all ~

I too am feeling the same.. almost in tears and really feel like quitting altogether!! So you are n

i gave blood, sweat, and tears as a QA person -
I tried for over a year with a very lame lady who supposedly graduated from one of the *top 3* schools and was a former nurse. She had a terrible ear, little to no comprehension, and was clueless on how to even use her reference books! She was hands down the worst MT out of dozens of people I worked with. The point is this - You can usually tell pretty early if someone is worth training or not. What does your gut say?

I'll say this again, tears are NOT necessary. Determination is. As well as a sound intellect. sm
You CAN do it! Good luck.

That is hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am rolling on the floor with that one.

I saw that, and it's hilarious!!!

Hilarious!
Ha! That is the funniest thing I've heard all day! I remember way back when I first started as an MT, the surgeon had dictated what sounded like "slap reconstruction," so that's what I typed. It was "flap reconstruction!" Gosh, I'm sure glad the surgeon had a sense of humor and he read the document before signing it...hee-hee!

Those are hilarious! (nm)

That's hilarious!

You'd elect Bush all over again! God help you! And you probably thought, and still do think, that Iraq has WMD. Hahahahaha!

Have fun shelling it out at the pumps honey. Bush and his oil buddies count on people like you.

you think everything is hilarious

OMG that is hilarious! My DH's is too! sm
It never fails, he will start talking as soon as I step on the pedal. As soon as I lift my foot to try to catch what he said, he stops. Then when I think he was just making a rhetorical comment or something I didn't need to respond to, I will step on the pedal and he will start talking AGAIN!! This will go on for a couple of minutes, listening to the same little bit of dictation over and over, until I finally tell him to either SPEAK OR SHUT UP!

That is hilarious even though

EVERYTHING you said is true and very very frustrating, it was still sooo funny...especially, and I forget what number...the yawning issue...I always love to try and figure out what they are saying in the middle of a yawn.

You also forgot number 11...spell the word "the" but don't spell physicains names, names of other doctor's office or words that THEY can't even pronounce!

thanks for the laugh...I definitely needed a good on!

Oh, dear! Wiping tears from my eyes. I'll pass on
"touching Frank on a personal level". ROFL! Oh, geez! Yeah, yeah, mind in the gutter and all that.

What a heart-warming story. It brings tears to my eyes.
I can't wait for chapter 2 of this soap opera.

Minimum Wage, as I read this tears began to well in my eyes ...

You, like some of the other posters, reflect a clear understanding of the downward trend this industry has taken over the last few years and the mindset of those who caused it. You mention so many experiences that resonate with my own. Most notably, I like you, put all of my eggs into this one basket, foolishly believing that this wonderland profession that I had found would last forever. It was a perfect fit for my skills, abilities, and work preference. I was able to make an excellent living and felt that somehow I was making a meaningful contribution to the care of each patient whose chart came to life under my fingers.

It is amazing to me how each year the profession requires more and more knowledge from us, more skill, more ability, more dedication, more resources ... and in direct correlation to what is demanded from us our pay is cut more and more and without apology. I mentioned in another post that I remember when I first got into MT'g some 20+ years ago hearing the Powers That Be constantly resentfully complaining that we made too much money and were no more than glorified typists. Who could have known that one day they would finally all band together and make an industry-wide collective effort to correct what they felt was an unacceptable dynamic?

It seems that everyone directly and indirectly involved in the process of transcription is valued and compensated well for their contribution to the process -- everybody except us -- the ones who actually make the final work product a reality.

Thank you for your contribution to this thread.

i made $15/hr before and didn't stay long because i made so much more on production. sm
that was with full benes too. i wouldn't do it for less than $20, but i think even with $20, i'd want benes. are you in-house?

that's hilarious! No offense, of course!
Sounds like something I would do...

I actually did LOL!

?it's individualized to us? - that's hilarious. They

have quit and have sent them 3 resignation letters!!!!

It still surprises them when we tell them I DON'T WORK FOR YOU ANYMORE~!

NOT FOR 6 MONTHS!
