In Reply to: Where can I get this vacuum system? NM - Romey
I have had mine for years, about $10. I think I got mine at Lechters, don't know if they still exist though. But I am sure BBB would have it, who knows Wal-Mart probably does too.

Well a social butterfly type wouldn't be attracted to this job in the first place
antisocial problem that a person entered this job with in the first place.
Please explain the gadget part
I don't understand what you mean. And, what if I don't want Google as my home page, can I somehow link it to just my general google favorite link when I open it?
Thanks!
Please explain the gadget part....
Yeah, got turned onto this late last night and now I am finding literally TONS of medical related ones. Headlines from Mayo Clinic, JAMA, NIH, etc.... They even have one for updated diagnoses and symptomology! I am finding enough medical reading to keep me busy for ages.

Funny how we're all different. He looks like he needs a bath to me.

I took a baby bath tub and filled it up with
all sorts of baby items. Pretty much everything I could think of and arranged it nicely and then wrapped yellow cellophane and tied it up with ribbons and rattles. If you know the sex of the baby, you can use blue or pink cellophane. You absolutely cannot go wrong with this type of gift!
I take mine apart before it gets the soap and water bath. nm

our pool feels like a steam bath...nm
Has anyone tried Tahiti Sweetie lotion from Bath and Body Works?
My sister gave it to me for my birthday and it makes me wish I were on an island. 
It's the only place I have ever lived.. Great place to retire or raise a family. Low crime rate e
living is pretty easy here. Low stress..
In the Kitchen and it is the worst but
I purchased a pair of those earmuffs that people use at the shooting range and although I have received many laughs, these are the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I use the little earbuds for headphones and the earmuffs on top and get some peace and quiet. I also put them on when I do not want to be bothered. I have in-laws over a lot to help with my 4 year old and we live in an apartment so these earmuffs are literally the best thing to happen to my work. I work a lot of nights and would just keep my husband up if it were in the bedroom. I really don't think I would want the computer screen staring at me while I am trying to sleep anyway.
kitchen question
I have some acacia wooden salad bowls, serving dishes, etc which I am giving as a wedding present. I know this type of wood is known for its durability but I am wondering if wooden dishes are microwave safe. Also, I remember my mother using them to serve some hot foods. Do they stain with such foods as hot tomato dishes, spinach or berries? Is ther some another way to remove those stains other than bleach? Just wondering if there anybody out there who knows about this?
I had to remove one from the kitchen a little
It was the middle of the night, as I was walking towards the kitchen, I noticed the snake (maybe 14" long, maybe 2" in diameter) side winding towards the refrigerator. I am a nature person but only to a certain degree, so don't want the snakes in my home or any reptile for that matter. I bent down as far as I could with my arthritic hips, scooped the snake up into a dust pan with my arthritic fingers as fast as I could (which wasn't very fast) and walked it up my very steep driveway towards a nearby drain. I didn't want to kill it, just get it far away from the house as I could. I never heard from it again. However, I have bird feeders near the house and maybe that is why I had to even deal with it being in my home in the first place. Not much of a reptile or insect person. I remove the lizards from the house too instead of killing but will spray or destroy insects.

Ever try cooking a meal in someone else's kitchen? sm
You know how to cook, but have a tough time finding where everything is kept in that kitchen so it takes a while longer. You could cook the same thing in your own familiar kitchen in half the time. This goes for MT, too. It takes a long time, even for those of us who have been transcribing half our lives, to get used to new formats, new work type codes, new voices, and learning idiosyncrasies for each and every dictator. It takes time--a few months or more. Be patient, and the line counts will surely add up as you become more familiar with the account.
Kitchen appliance graveyard
In the midst of moving last weekend, I discovered my long forgotten kitchen appliance graveyard. All the cool gadgets that I thought I HAD to have at the time that have long since moved into that cabinet. I had three juicers dating back to the 80's, an ice cream maker, a sandwich maker, a George Foreman grill, a food dehydrator, and a the most recent one I got for Christmas, a smoothie maker. Oh the humanity! I have decided to resurrect some of them for fun and because I feel so guilty. How about you all ? Anyone suffer from this gadget collecting problem?
ants on the kitchen table
Anybody else have a problem with ants on the table. We even fogged the house, used raid and still they come back. Any suggestions?
I use Scrubbing Bubbles, too. Windex in the kitchen.
Bleach with water and Lysol spray to disinfect. I keep a backup can of Comet around in case I run out of everything else. Pledge on the wooden kitchen table just for fun. I don't like the kitty on the counters or table, so he slides across the slippery surface after I use Pledge. Most entertaining. And Brite to shine the kitchen floor so we can watch the dogs skittering around corners while playing with kitty.
Really? What's good flooring for the kitchen and bathroom?
I definitely need something that will hold up to water. I'm just so tired of redoing the flooring in this house. We've only been here nine years and I'm tired of always remodeling or redoing everything. This is the very last time.
Oh, my!. I HAVE been there, desk in kitchen while dishes pile up and so on.
The little ones, at least, from this distance are happy memories and much missed. It really does get a LOT easier, I promise, and sooner than you can imagine, up over your head in it all as you are. Keep taking lots of deep breaths.
digital kitchen timer and a scratchpad ....
I am always startled at how much tallying line count every hour or two keeps me focused. Some days just spread out vaguely and my line count suffers as I get distracted or restless.
The info your platform provides should be enough ... to keep some sort of a running tally.
I trust almost no one is still doing manual logs (best kept in Excell, imho), but yes, even with manual logs, a "bad" hour total can provide the seat-in-chair motivation to perform better next hour.
Taking breaks is a good idea -- but I admit I still spend a lot of time playing catch-up.
Yep, 8 hrs in a hot kitchen on the burger broiler, at an amusement park.

Ceramic tile, but who puts carpet in a kitchen?

In the kitchen having breakfast. Turned on the TV and Charlie Gibson was on
when it was after 9:00. The first building was smoking behind him and he was describing it, not yet realizing what was going on. Then the second plane glided into view, and thinking it was a small observation plane, I said - "Get back, you idi*t, you're too close!" Then it hit, of course, and Charlie processed it in his brain and announced what I couldn't get my mind around: "Then this was no accident."
Is anyone watching Hell's Kitchen? If you think MT is hard, watch this show. The abuse of the
wannabe chefs is second only to MT abuse by the nationals. Really, to work in a kitchen in a restaurant seems the hardest job ever pressure-wise. I say this after watching "The Restaurant" and "Hell's Kitchen" reality TV. I wonder what the pay is to subject yourself to this agony and pressure.
Yard work, painting kitchen cabinets, sanding and priming
kitchen chairs. This morning went out to breakfast with DH and then ran a couple of errands, have already spread weed and feed in the yard and used weeder killer in other areas, cleaned off the patio, cleaned off the bookcase in the den, recycled some stuff, Freecycled some stuff - busy, busy, busy.
The position varies from place to place..
Sometimes you end up doing VR, which can be really easy or a real pain. Sometimes you end up simply editing files and all is good. Other times, you end up with more job responsibilities and hours than you ever wanted. All in all better than typing LOL.
I do! I usually get mine at The Body Shop and Bath and Body Works. Thanks for posting that link. Do

don't type double spaces. Type single. Then no one will be cheated.

I can type with wine, can't type with coffee, though...too jittery.

That is, type the code above before and after what you want bolded in the text-to-type box. nm

For me it isn't an account type but a dictator type ...
and that would be oriental. An oriental dictator (hahaha, that kind of sounds funny...hahaha) is the most challenging for me.
No, you don't type directly into ES. You type in Word -
or whatever their platform is, just like you did with your tapes.
Then you do your line count in Word or the platform.
You should type them. I usually type them in parentheses following the diagnosis.

remind me, type what they say, type what they say, type....
"He indicated that at the beginning of the year he complained of health problems recently but has gotten better." C'mon doc, which one is it?????
Shorthand users: Is there a way to type a word, use a slash and then type another word..sm
immediately following the slash and have it expand. For example if I needed to transcribe mass/sebaceous cyst, is there a way to use my expanded sebaceous cyst without having to back space after I type the slash mark? TIA
You, well you have obviously put ME in my place
with that little lecture. Since youd didn't say anything meaningful to respond to in all that bandwidth, I won't respond to any of the content of what you said.
But just for your information, your little tyrade had no affect on the reality of what is going to happen, so get over it and get used to it.
I saw that place on TV (sm)
a lot of celebrities own there!
It is most definitely not OUR place to be
making phone calls or turning people in. The doctors and nurses are trained to do it as part of their job. If they suspect abuse, drug seeking, whatever, it is up to THEM, not us.
know your place sm
Student Rule #1: Keep your thoughts to yourself when ti comes to CEOs and your opinions. "I read a post by the CEO and felt the need to comment."
I see this is not the place to be
People are right when I have been told - not many nice people in this field. My first week coming on here to look for help and talk to other was this past week and you know what, you can have it. I will look for other places to figure out my problems with work and I suggest you look for help with your personality problems as my work problems do not require nearly the attention your personality does. Good bye and thanks for nothing.
I am not sure if you tried this place..
Did you happen to go into your closet and look for a reference book only to find the administrator of this forum smelling her finger?
I have never been to a place that does that and
would not shop at one.
Not every place is like that at all.
Not very believable.
Why is the cat outside in the first place?

I think 2nd place gets..........nm

then that's what you should have said in the first place.

And this place does?
This place makes no sense to me. People are mean here. I love cafemt. Makes the job fun.
33 yrs, 9-10 at same place.

If you get $ from this place, they sm
will not touch you with a 10-foot pole. I've been in this situation and you will be a no-rehire.
I think I used to be an IC for the same place.
I liked working there, but no time off allowed. One day an MT co-worker of mine got a headache and got in trouble for calling out that day even though she gave plenty of notice early in the morning and they had all day to distribute the work. This is when often-times there was no work at all. I left because after hearing that, I realized I would not be a true IC. Why, as an IC you are supposed to make your own schedule aren't you? And if something comes up isn't it true that you are allowed flexibility? They say it is a small company and everyone is expected to be there for them when the hospital decides to send in the overflow, yet with no notice to the IC. It was too confusing, in may ways worse than employee when at least you know when you are expected to work. Not an IC job at all. Sorry for your experience, but I and many others I know have had the same experience.
