Communication is great. Last I heard in a newsletter
was Liz was back in the office part time,Jason was general manager, and altho Liz was prior owner, there was nothing about her being a general manager.
Ok, last time it was posted was in March, but when were the last 3 picked?
Are you all ever going to do anything about cherrypicking?
Great post. The biggest gripe I have heard from available
Wrapping yourself in money will not keep you warm in old age. Just because a middle-aged man is bald or has a bit of a paunch, it is up to a woman to "light that fire". Go to it ladies.
Wow. We've all heard it takes about 5 positive comments to overcome 1 neg. Great example. We ne

I WASN'T GUESSING. I HEARD WHAT I HEARD VERY CLEARLY.
I don't even agree with what QA said, but they are QA. Question them, and your out the door.
Saw him on CMT show with John Fogarty. Great, great singer with a neat personality and drop dead
gorgeous without seeming to know it.
Great post. I swear by both Advantage and Frontline Plus-- both work great! - sm
I don't know about "natural" approaches for the house. I have always used flea bombs in the past before the miracle of Advantage and Frontline changed my life. Have not had a flea problem at all since I began using those products about 10 years ago, dose all the dogs religiously once a month with the Frontline Plus except in Dec.-Feb. to save a few bucks and because the ground is generally frozen by then and no fleas are scurring about. -- Hope you get flea free soon.
Thanks to all. Got some great feedback and ecouragement. This board is great.
My rant passed, ate a late lunch, now back to the trenches.
GREAT GREAT SHOW! I still think Ellen Pompeo
should have gotten the Emmy/Golden Globe whatever it was for the show. I like Sandra Ho, her character just needs more depth... Next week looks AWESOME!! Maybe there is still a chance for McDreamy!! First season DVD coming out with deleted scenes! Can't wait to get it & watch it!!
It is a GREAT company and great deal! I've had
Vonage about 6 months now and I love it. The only mistake I made was trying to keep my original phone # - I wouldn't recommend that. You have a temp # for a while, and the other provider can fight for the old #, etc. Go to vonage. com. They have new features all the time! There is even a new soft phone that is a phone on your screen. You don't need a real phone when working - just headset. It has 800 #s you can have very inexpensively - great voice mail. You get emails when you have new messages, etc. I only wish I had used them a year ago! Nothing but good things to say, and I complain about everything! 
Sounds like he will do great then. Again, best wishes for great success!

That's great Patti. Thanks. Have a great time at the beach.

You should feel great as a transcriptionist if they think your work is that great!!!
It is not your fault they approached you. I think it would be a different storey if you were the one searching for the job to take away from a company. They obviously want to get rid of the company and if you didn't take the job they would probably ask someone else. You should enjoy the better position and not feel guilty!!
Great post -great job of wording your answer! (sm)
Original poster - I completely agree with this answer, especially the part about finding yourself and using all that you have learned intellectually and connecting that to something that you will also enjoy with your heart!! You have so many wonderful options for your future - much more than many of us.
IT - great program, great support system. nm

Thanks for all the great advice! You guys are great!

Now Ive heard that before.:) nm

That's not what I have heard...

What I heard...
And is strictly speculation... Phillips will dump MQ and Spheris will snap them up... and we all know what happens to those who work for Spheris! Can you say hello Bangalore? 
I heard it too AND

Not heard anything about it
sorry
I am sure you have heard this before..
there is no such thing as a dumb question.
you are asking questions other people wish they had the answers to but are afraid to ask.
and you are correct in your assumptions, however, your on-call status might have parameters; for instance, between the hours of midnight and 8 a.m.
Anyone heard of LTS, INC?
I was thinking of applying at LTS, INC but I was not sure if they were reputable! If anyone has ever heard anything about them, let me know! Thanks!! 
What I heard
I heard September 11th is the day we are all supposed to boycott.
This is what I heard is better to do
Of course, we all need gas, and as another poster noted, just not buying gas on a certain day will not work.
What I heard is, buy your gas from a small-time operation, as opposed to Exxon, BP, etc. This will cause them to lower their prices, and the smaller companies with follow by lowering theirs.
Also, noticed yesterday that gas has come down by about .50 in my area. I wasn't surprised, because when I have to go out, there's much, much less traffic...I would estimate by 75% of normal, so folks are boycotting in a way already... cutting down on their trips, combining trips, etc., because they just draw the line at the point prices had risen.
The last I heard
Huntsville Hospital transcription was a pill to work for. I worked with a lady one time who had quit the hospital because after they had agreed to give her vacation at a certain time months in advance they told her she couldn't take it and she had to cancel her vacation plans. They may have improved the way they do business by now but not sure. I would do more research if at all possible.
Heard something
Instead of the bonus being in the 10/1 paycheck, it is supposed to be in the 11/15 paycheck. Of course part of all of it was that you have to be with the company in order to receive it...you leave, you lose. Only half of the employees qualified, which is curious. I know a lot of people left after they restructured they pay plan and the hew hires get their $1000 bonus so I'm confused as to how it saves them money. I guess they are thinking they are about to have another exodus when the bonuses are given out and the new people won't be there long enough to qualify for the next quarterly bonus.

Anybody heard of
Any information would be helpful. TIA
Yea, but what is said and what is heard are different. NM

I heard that!
Just a few that get to me...along with the phrase "24/7, 365"... Not sure why that one gets on my nerves, but it does! "Team player" is another one! and the best yet...to me, my boss uses the phrase that she is going to "tickle" something...meaning mark it for future reference (I think).. not really sure about that phrase either!
Must not have done much. I never heard of it and I'm okay this a.m.
I usually get socked by everything down the pike with my AVG.
What is it about? Never heard of it.

I have never heard of them, but you should
try posting this on the companies board and maybe someone there can help. Also, it might not be soon enough for you. Try googling the words "opinions on Entente Health Care" and that might help. Good luck!
Never heard of them. Sorry. nm

Yes I have heard of this, but the
pay was very low.
I have heard that it is about 85%
85% for no spaces compared to spaces being counted. Not sure if that is a correct number. I know there is a chart somewhere that breaks it all down.
Never heard of them
That is odd. I live in Arkansas and have never heard of them. Are they new? Let us know if you do hear anything about them.
I have not heard of this before? Can you tell us more.
and in fact wondered to myself about specializing in maintaining flower gardens for the sick and elderly who haven't the strength to do it but want it just the same.
I have never heard of these, but this is exactly what I need. I'm going to ask about them. Have

sorry I mean heard

I heard that also
I believe it has something to do with benefiting farmers and their crops, but I could be wrong. I think that was the reason it got started in the first place.
I heard about them
I heard about this company, giving all their work to India and not paying any one on time. Please be aware of this guys!
I have never heard of that but perhaps...sm
Hibiclens would be better than Betadine, I would think....plus Betadine stains and Hibiclens does not. *S*
Fresh blade to shave that area though - I know this because I no longer have the bumps since using the fresh blades.
Never heard of that.

Wow - now I have heard it all lol

What I have heard is this ..
The test is comprehensive and the difference is that there is less emphasis placed on the transcribing of reports in the test and more emphasis placed on your body of knowledge. It requires that you have at least two years of acute care experience to take it. We pay a .01 per line higher rate for CMTs at my company and that works out to be 12.00 a day extra for your production requirement or $60 per week or $240 per month. I find that our MTs think it is well worth it. Additionally, with the average age of MTs being 58, I'd say that your grandfathered CMTs are dwindling in the workplace as they retire and those left are tested CMTs but a different formatting situation.
never heard of it, but
I googled it and it sounds very yummy. Sounds sort of complicated though.
I had not heard of these before, but
I Googled and got this as the first hit. Apparently, it does not detect cigarette smoke, but rather detects the act of lighting the cigarette, and is made for such purposes as catching the culprit who is smoking in a school bathroom or other such public facility. Check it out.

Has anyone ever heard of this?
My cousin went in for a cholecystectomy. She was VERY ill for days afterwards. She went in to the ER and had a CT. They said her liver was perforated during the chole. Now, she is literally on her death bed with a perforated liver and blood clots in the mesenteric artery and another major artery. She is being transferred to a transplant hospital for evaluation of possible liver transplant.
All of this happened because of mistake during a cholecystectomy. She is 34 years old and may not make it. The original doc avoided her like the plague and they had to push for a new doc. No new docs would take her because of the lawsuit potential that already exists. Her family finally got a doc to give verbal orders to have her transferred to the transplant hospital where hopefully she will get better care.
Unbelievable. I wonder if the doc knew what he did during surgery and tried covering it up, which ultimately may kill her. Docs are so afraid of lawsuits that the patient's care is going down the tubes.
Never heard of it, but I am
losing about 2 pounds a week eating a sensible diet including carbs. I get so frustrated when people mention diets and it's all no carbohydrates, or very low carbohydrates. I didn't get fat because I ate too much white rice or potatoes, LOL, I got fat because I ate too much of EVERYTHING, along with sitting on my bum all day long. And a diet that restricts me from eating watermelon because of the glycemic index? I can just imaging going to a friend's house and her asking me if I want some watermelon. No thanks, I'm on a diet, LOL.
I heard this as well...
I had a national tell me they are being required to get licensed in the states they want to hire people in and can only offer benefits if you live in those states. They can still hire ICs, but they have to take out federal tax and social security. I believe the IRS cracked down on everybody. Another one told me that all employers have to allow ICs to be the "by the book" ICs, they can take off when they want and don't have to work schedules.
