10.5 with major national, 65 chars with spaces,

maybe "black and white" chars. (meaning spaces
s
This was discussed recently. Would be chars. + spaces, but no indents, bold, italics, etc. nm

Shorthand and extra spaces
I've briefly searched the archives, but I must get busy typing. I've noticed in my ShortHand program that sometimes after I expand there will be an extra space and I have to go backspace to fix it. Any recommendations? Thanks!!
Yes, it means without spaces.
nm
I think that means they pay for spaces, 65-charac line.

I do not get extra money for typing and supervising.. I get paid salary which means
 I get to type the stuff everyone else has rejected!
Wwwowoooweeeiiieee.. lucky me and my 3 dollars an hour!!
Good luck! I just got $0.0010 which means and extra $1 for every 1000 lines - Whoo hoo! Very insult

Can they do surgery extra fast? What do they do with the extra glove in the pack?

8243 chars is how many lines?
 confused!!! lol
My line including spaces is 65 characters. I've heard that not counting spaces
takes away over 35% of your line count. I believe it too because you have at least 15 or so spaces on each line that you type. Use your first sentence up top as an example; you had 77 char and 21 spaces - in that line that would be a little less than 30% of your characters that you didn't get paid for. I don't think it's worth it and wouldn't want to work without getting credit for my spaces.
Extra shift or extra work
Has anyone taken on an extra job or shift with a new company for a just a few months to get out of debt or to be able to pay for something that is needed or wanted? I am thinking about taking on another job to get out of a stressful debt situation. I am just afraid I would be going into another stressful situation working more hours with the very busy family schedule I have.
Yes, watch margins/font. Unlike 65 chars line, this
I was paid on gross line for years, and I found that it worked out to be about 2 cpl higher than 65 chars line. Thus, 8 cents per gross would equal to roughly 10 cents per 65 chars. However, as other poster stated, you have to make sure it's a 12-size font and 1-inch margins
Chars aren't counted in gross lines. If you have a 4-line paragraph...sm
you have 4 gross lines, no matter how long or short the sentences are. A heading on it's own line is 1 gross line. A signature on it's own line is 1 gross line. The date at the top of a document on it's own line is 1 gross line. Anything on a line going from margin to margin is 1 gross line, no matter how few or many characters, or if there are spaces or not, even if there's only 1 character on that line like 'A' for instance. Does this help? :)
They used to not pay for spaces, but a poster here said they are getting spaces paid. Are there 2
s
it's spelled right. Exo means outside and you know what phrenic means. nm
:
Pay No Spaces, Type No Spaces nm

without spaces compared to with spaces
10 cpl without spaces equals to how many cpl with spaces?
Spaces versus no spaces....
Can someone tell me how big of a difference it makes if a company pays for spaces versus no spaces. I have only every been paid without spaces. I have been offered a position that pays for spaces, but the cpl is less than I am making now. I am not sure if getting paid for spaces will make up for the pay cut. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Possibly because gas could go up even further SM
Katrina affected many refineries. Gas prices are rising VERY quickly now, so people could be filling before it goes up even more.
This could quite possibly have been - sm
I've just had the worst and the most unproductive working day of my life. After several days of not a heck of a lot of work, I sat down today hoping to make up some lines. So my internet wigs out on me. Cable guy comes, fixes problem, I'm back in business. About 3 ridiculous family emergencies later (loads of sarcasm here), my phone goes on the charger and I ignore the constant ringing for 2 hours. Since I work at home, everyone thinks I've got loads of time to chat.
My SIL was kind enough to take my boys to the pool today. I was so happy to know that I would have 4 hours of peace and quiet to be able to transcribe. But since my internet was not working from right after they left until the moment they returned, that didn't happen. My son comes home from the pool with bleeding and raw feet (Athlete's foot) that I have had no success at treating with the Tinactin the doctor told me to use. So, I A&D his feet, put some socks on, back to work. Then my youngest dumps a box of Cheezit crackers on the floor and decides he will walk on them until they are very finely crushed. After an hour in the kitchen, I'm back to work. Not for long though. Older son decides he wants a bowl of coco krispies. They also end up on the floor, scattered from one end to the other. Then big brother decides to use his younger brother as his sketch board. So I spend about 20 minutes trying to get pen off my little one's face.
Please somebody, tell me I am not the only one with these problems. I'm beginning to think the only time I will be able to work and actually accomplish something this summer will be if I work when my little monsters are sleeping, which means no sleep for me. 
Possibly...sm
Have you actually done an "Edit" when your cursor is in the patient name field on doc info screen? I'm not logged in right now, but I think you actually need to edit the patient info ... Of course, on some accounts we are not allowed to do this nor do we have privilege.
you cannot possibly
be the same person.
Ok, did as much as I could possibly do
this morning and my count was 690. That was with excellent dictators and hardly having to stop. Being told 1000 lph, in my opinion, is totally unrealistic.
What could they possibly do that would
cost that much money? Most places of that nature don't charge a fee, but rather are made up of volunteers & activists who work together to try to bring about change.
Possibly
cachectic?
Possibly
cachexia?
What bills could we possibly have?
That was exactly what one doctor said to me when he called wanting my services and I told him what my charge was. He was in a town 15-20 minutes away and since tapes were the "in" thing", I charged for picking up and delivery, minimal charge.
Well, he thought that was ridiculous and told me I didn't have any "expenses" associated with this job, so what was I charging him for other than doing the reports. BTW, he got my name and number from his partner in the office who thought my charges were more than reasonable and willing to pay for it to get what he called "great" service.
Of course, we have no expenses, we live free, not having to eat, buy gas, pay all the same bills they do. You know, the necessities of life!!!!!!
Go figure!!!
wow- someone please explain how that could possibly
or cheaper for that matter, I'm sure Arby's employees are not on the high end wage category!
Is there something wrong with that? Being possibly SM
pregnant and reading junk magazines in the grocery line? She's a person just like you and me. I read junk magazines waiting in line. How could you criticize her for that.
Now I didn't like to see Brad and Jennifer break up. But these stars don't belong to us. They are people, people who have to go to the grocery store, who may indeed possibly be pregnant, and may just have a tummy.
What a statement!
Possibly oblique?

Adhesion possibly
Lisa -- this is what I was writing about before. What you are describing sounds like a trigger point that needs to get resolved. The Chinese call trigger points "blocked energy channels." It could be trapped proteins or by-products of cellular metabolism or scar tissue (adhesion). A well-trained Rolfer or trigger point massage therapist could help here. That's what I meant by not just doing chiropractic alone without soft tissue/body work. The old saying, the knee bone is connected to the hip bone -- by way of muscles, tendons and ligaments. All need attention before it's too late like joint damage! If you're getting numbness, chances are you may have nerve impingement (no diagnosis here). Stretching without working out the trigger point just adds to the muscle flexion or extension problem that tightens around the nerves. If the muscles are out of proper position, so will the nerves in that area. A good resource for you would be a trigger point manual with locations of muscles (insertions points) so you can learn. My recommendation would be to see a qualified Rolfer/trigger point massage therapist to teach you how to help yourself.
Possibly tulips, though I only have a few of them!
Mostly I like anything blue or purple. Love cherry blossoms and also red bud trees.
This can't possibly be for a national as an IC???

Possibly losing my job due to VR...
I was told that the clinic I MT for is considering an expensive VR program. The person that told me works for them too and said that it is about 98% accurate. She also said it might be something I should consider in order for my IC business to grow. Hello? Why would I invest in something I know the medical field would pay for in substitution for hiring an MT? She told me that this VR program costs about $4,000 but she did not know the product make. Is there really a VR product that accurate for that amount of money? If so, then I think it is time for me to get out before I am no longer needed.
Possibly, but they are the exception,

Hmm, I had even thought about it possibly having an
upgrade, asked about that and the specs are not that specific so don't know about that. I thought upgrade because has gone from almost letter perfect to hardly anything right with it now.
Thanks for the information, that possibly
answered my questions. I know it was good at 1 time, same as you and now it is pure salad. I used to really love and now sorta gritting my teeth.
Sounds to me like you would possibly
fit into the category of at least making minimum wage. I would definitely go and check into that. As with IC no such luck but with your status go and let us know what transpires.
Can you tell me how long you have smoked? Your age possibly?
I am about to quit. Have stopped and started throughout my life. Quitting for a year a few times, for five years once (until I married a smoker). The recovery is wonderful, I recall. Food tastes so much better. And, there is the freedom of not having to have cigs, lighter and an ash tray with you at all times. And yes, you feel better (no one realized how ill one feels while smoking until they quit). This time, I am going to carry nicotine patches with me when I get the urge for nicotine which, I recall, strikes with a vengence when stressful situations arise.
Congratulations, my friend. I like the part where you can run a mile (I just joined a gym yesterday). I know life will be better all the way around. Not to mention the savings $-wise.
Stay focused. We must remember that the end result of cigs is possible lung CA, undoubtedly emphysema, COPD and eventually the need for oxygen supplementation. What a miserable way to end ones life - gasping for breath. (My mom is now on oxygen at the age of 74).
You are in my thoughts as I go about this quitting business for hopefully the very last time.
Possibly Esmarch band?
Google is a good resource for looking up terminology.
Need help on possibly homeschooling a 9th grader
Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Could I possibly talk with you through e-mail?
I have some important info regarding the panic attacks your son has had. I know all too well the situation.
scam or possibly truth? sm
My sister is on disability and has decided to return to college. She received a phone call from somebody who told her that since she is on SSD and going back to school that she is eligible for a grant of $5000. All she has to do is allow them to debit her checking account for $300 and she will receive the grant. Sister was desperate financially, so decided to do it. She borrowed the money from our mom and only after the fact told me about it. I'm sure she has been scammed for $300. Has anyone else had this happen and/or could I be right in this matter? I'm curious to hear from anyone on this. Thanks.
re: scam or possibly truth?
This sounds like many of the scams that are happening to the elderly and people on disabilty and the attorney generals from many states are trying to track down these scam artists. On a new station locally they had a story about this scam and the fact that if you are called, asked to give them money for a loan/grant/lottery winnings, etc to say no, write down the phone number or get the information from the person before they hang up. A lot of times the caller will hang up when asked scam concerned questions, and report it to your attorney general as soon as possible. A lot of times they cannot get the money back, but if this person travels from state to state doing this, sometimes they are caught, but usually without the money. Good luck. Just remember everyone if you are asked for money to receive anything that you know does not sound right, please say no, and never, ever give out your bank card number, etc. A woman in one state lost 70,000 to this type of scam until her daughter stepped in when she found out about it, but unfortunately did not get the money back.
Yes, he possibly just said the wrong thing.

How would anyone possibly recognize your vent (SM)
when it desccibes how every Transcriptionist out there feels. Guess it just goes with the business.
If you could possibly get new speakers with plug-in...
nm
LOL! Possibly my husband's cooking?
You should see some of my personal medical reports other people have transcribed. Jeesh, can I sue as a patient for such poorly transcribed reports? Thanks for the laugh...
How could you possibly do any kind of production for either one. Does not seem
fair to either company.
Possibly - good idea - thanks - still
contemplating the recliner - actually had to move one into my office to make way for the Christmas tree - but I bet I would have 2 cats in my lap so must see if that would work!
