Reason to change your address if you move
Posted By: diddles on 2006-02-22
In Reply to:
About 6 months ago I moved into a large apartment complex (it is a 1 mile drive to get to the main road from my apartment). A lot of college students live here and there is high turnover. When I moved here, I had already changed my address on the USPS web site so my mail was waiting in my box the day I moved in...
along with mail from the 3 college girls who moved out the week before and still after 6 months, one of them has not changed her address. If you ever need a reason to change your address, listen up. 
I have her cell phone bills for 6 months. I have her W2s, all 3 of them. I have her credit card bills (5). I have her bank statements. I have at least 8 rebate checks she sent off for (don't know the amounts). Lastly, I have her Federal Income Tax Refund Check.
Now I have put these things back in the box for the mail person (I always miss seeing him/her). I've marked "moved, left no address", I've torn a corner off envelopes and marked it "damaged, return to sender", I've talked to the apartment office...everything goes back to the delivery person and I GET IT ALL BACK!
If I were an evil person, I could really mess up this person's credit. It has crossed my mind to open some envelopes and cancel all her credit cards, cell phone, close the checking account by phone, etc. and see if doing that would get her attention and get her to change her address. I don't have any intentions of breaking the law but I can see where people get ideas to steal other people's identies!
I don't know what else to do. I'm taking the important stuff directly downtown tomorrow and will try to speak to the postmaster directly to see if something can be done. Anything else I get is going in the garbage. I don't like getting my mail, much less someone else's and if I sent off for rebate checks, I would make SURE they went to the right address! Oh, bless her heart. I don't think her elevator makes it all the way to the top floor.

Did they change their web address?
Could you possibly post the new link? I had the link in my favorites, but I get a "webpage cannot be found" message when I go to it now. Thanks in advance!!!
As an SE, all taxes are taken out, but I am wondering if that is reason enough to make a change? sm
Company "A" is my first job being an IC and I am not sure I can wrap my head around why any employer cannot take out taxes which is not the case with many companies which offer you IC status. They tell us how and when to work. This IC job I have right now is no different than any job I have ever had with a hospital, but I think it is a rip off having to pay self-employment taxes. BTW, Company A is in the same state in which I live, so wouldn't be difficult to take taxes out of my check.
Even 4.5 is too low. doctors do not change - they still hem and haw, change, change stuff along wit
It is just not enough for the work. Speech is great on the wrists but you are not just reading what is typed, you are making a lot of changes. I have a hard time doubling a lot of days with all the changes I have to make. Just my opinion.
Don't change. I had to change back to cable. SuddenLink DSL stinks! nm

Change provider vs change to business plan
In your place, I would seriously consider changing providers if there were others available in your area, but I'd ask around about their service quality first. It may not be any better. If there are no other providers, then consider changing your service package to a business account rather than residential. They're usually more expensive, but they also tend to get faster service if there's a problem.
Last summer, I had no electricity for 3 days due to severe storms, but there were some 600,000 in the same boat with me. We just had to wait it out. It's a downside of working at home.
change attitude, change life
The first thing you need to change is that defeatist attitude! I know that's hard at times like this, but that's when you need to most.
I won't go into detail, but my financial situation is also at an all-time low, we couldn't even exchange gifts., daughter in hospital twice, & no med insurance)..but then I heard about how much worse things were for others around me this season. Now I'm thankful instead!
Get out while you can. Things will *never* change unless you change them. (nt)
Help that is with the address bar
see above....
IP address?
Satellite will be through Wild Blue (dish) Ok, what do you mean by static IP. Is this something i ask them for?
I move around A LOT!!! - SM
I ALWAYS take pictures before AND after. When I lived in Florida, the apartment complex tried to charge me $700 to pay for cleaning. They said it was because I had pets and I left kitty litter behind, etc. I DID NOT HAVE A CAT!!! Do not just shake this off. They expect that people will not come back and make a fuss, well let me tell you - I WILL AND HAVE GOTTEN ON AN AIRPLANE to go back to a place that tries to charge me. I rest my case - thank you.
If you would like to move on to
a company that can give you plenty of work, your own accounts and not make your life a misery, please email me. I have spoken with many MQ people recently and have work, but somehow it seems that many are afraid to leave. I can pretty well guarantee you a good livelihood and little to no hassle .. and if it sounds to good to be true it is true .. plain and simple.
Move On
Same thing happened to the hospital I worked at. We were told we would be hired by the outsourcers at same pay! Ha!
I didn't transition but the ones who did report the pay was all changed once onboard. Plus the new benefits were horrible compared to what we were use to.
I chose to decline their offer, took unemployment and found a new job on my terms.
Good Luck!
PS: In my state, if you lose your job through no fault of you own (outsourcing) you are entitled to Unemployment Compensation.
If I could move, I probably would.
I'm not happy with the kids in my daughter's classes nor have I met many people that I would choose as my friends. I have met a few good people though. It's really hard though being young and single here, not to mention working at home, but I've made a few steps over the weekend to change that. Small steps, but I already feel better.
Can you move...
That would be helpful. There is no need to be hateful, tell people you are at work from this time until that time, and you cannot be disturbed unless it is an emergency. State the fact and then ask them to respect that! I know what you mean when you say people act like you aren't "really working!" It is annoying!
Me three! Let's move on!

I can tell you that if you move to
Houston, CyFair district is excellent. Far Northwest Houston is really nice, as well as the Woodlands, but I prefer the CyFair district so moved out here instead of the Woodlands.
I personally like the city. My husband could live on a farm. This is a little bit of a compromise for both of us. Texas is gorgeous though. If it doesn't really matter where you live, I would consider the hill country.
Why not move??
you said you have no husband, no kids.....so, you are free as a bird!!! You would be surprised at what can happen when you change your entire environment.
Good Luck!
I like to get up and move around.
So, two days a week I get to see the world! HA! I am a Mom of two. I start working around 8:30 a.m. and take frequent breaks. I love hitting the grocery store on a Tuesday mid morning with all of the Mom-Moms and Pops-Pops, and it sure beats the rush on the weekend around here anyway.
I work for about an hour at a time and then break. I cannot stay glued to the screen as it gives me a headache. I am very successful and very productive (at least I like to think so). I do have my own accounts to service, so it makes it hard for vacations, but we get by.
I do work weekends, but not consistently. Weekends are actually most productive for me since there's not a lot of running around and everyone is ready for couch-slouching by the weekend in my house other than the occasional running one of my kids to a friend's house.
Oh and I should mention, I absolutely love the flexibility of being an IC. I am my own boss and find it much easier when I need time off to just simply ask myself, "Self can I have a few hours off to go shopping!" LOL
hey maybe we should all move to
the Pillafeens! I mean Phillipines

There is a way to move them.

Let's move on to something else. :D nm

What is the site address?
//
again, I did only address certain MQrs (sm)
and again, the ones who continuously whine and complain regarding MQ-this and MQ-that, it's nerve racking! My point, and this is the last time I will state it, is it is embarassing FOR ME, mind you, speaking for no one else here, to be associated with these whiny babies! Simple enough for ya? I am not backtracking at all, I simply retracted one word that seems to have gotten SOME OF YA riled up! So there, and I am NOT AND WILL NEVER BE a Clinton fan. That ticks me off more than anything anyone could say to me!
Anyone out there who works for MQ agree with me? Please come to my defense!
I have address resources available, but
the dictating physician will often forget to say the doctor's first name, and there will be 20 Dr. So-and-sos listed. Or they spell the easy names like Smith, but not the difficult ones that they mangle the pronunciation on. Then they carbon copy six different physicians. I've got the hospital directory, online hospital website, online physician address lookup, Google, and other resources, but it's still very time consuming.
I'm thinking I like Meditech better. LOL At least everything was in there. F7, F10, arrow down, save, you're done.
E-mail address
I will be glad to send you a copy of the E-mail that they sent me. But everyother time anyone has E-mailed me from this board it always states either in the subject line or somewhere that it is in response to a post on the board. This definitely was not and there is nowhere else that Spheris could have gotten my address and see above there was someone else that got it also. So they are getting it someway.
Internet address
Hello. I was wondering if anyone knew how to delete internet addresses that are seen when you hit the drop down box. I have a bunch of them that aren't valid anymore, and I want to get rid of them. Sorry, I don't know the technical wording, but hopefully you know what I mean. Thanks.
Can you post the web address please?
thanks
This will be the last time I will address
this because you are all so stupid you can't get it through your brains (?), I am one person and that is it. I say exactly what I want. I don't need anybody elses help on this board.
Can the ISP track to an address?
I didn't think it could. That would be great though. I feel bad for this person.
Sorry leaving address
I have almost five years experience, still probably considered a newbie when I see some with almost 5 to 6 times that much. But I just wanted to email someone who knows more about transcriptions companies than I do at present.
just need your your e-mail address
The Quick Reference (PDF format) I send via email. The manual is too large so I'll give you a link to go to and download it from.
Your e-mail address is ALL SHE NEEDS. (nt)
If I could address both posters ... sm
ALS: I read your post to my husband, who works on computers for a living, and he said it sounds like you lost an entire partition. I know that's not helpful and probably something you already figured out, but just wanted to offer something here. He also suggested running a virus scan as it sounds like something a virus might have caused. I sincerely wish you luck and hope that your files can be recovered. You might want to consult a local technician.
To the other poster: I am so sorry for your losses and I can't begin to imagine what you and your children have gone through. It sounds like today was difficult, to say the least. I think we've all been guilty at one time or another for saying something maybe we shouldn't have because of something going on within ourselves. I also send you sincere good wishes.
Do you have the exact web address? Please em it to me. Thanks! nm

lost my address bar
I can't seem to get it back! I have windows XP. I've played around with the toolbars but I can't find my address bar! 
Any help would be appreciated for this technically challenged MT.
NP Address Reference

The link is for the State of Texas, but you can change to any state at the bottom. This includes all docs and NPs, including chiropractors. Hope this helps! Have a great day.... 
Did you get physical address??
Did you get the name of her company and the physical address? Phone number? There is a lesson to be learned here -- you still need to get all of this info in case something like this happens again. Unless you have a physical address you cannot send a demand letter with return receipt or serve her with papers or anything. Hopefully you do have that and can send her a written certified letter demanind payment within 10 days. Then onto small claims court. But none of this is possible without a physical address. Good luck. If you have her full name or business name and city -- you might be able to do a search to find a phone number. Did her check to you have a phone number on it? I always take a copy of the front of checks at least the first one so that I have their account number, etc. Also shows payment. Let us know how it comes out.
Needing help- how to get IP address
Here in the SE AT&T had internet outage this week and now 1 of my computers is asking for the IP address, trying to get back on line. Where to find this? TIA.
If they had your correct address sm
and they mailed to wrong address then I would say yes - if post office error - then no. But they should get another one to you ASAP anyway!!
No where in my post did I address
I think you need to redirect your comments to the appropriate person. I was not approving or condoning her actions. I really don't think this lady understands why everyone is so upset with her (maybe a little thick). I was simply trying to point out what in her post has made everyone so upset.
I was also trying to offer some legal solutions to her problems. Not to mention, that her kids do deserve kudos for serving their country.
Next time you decide to post, make sure you direct your comments to the right person. Some people get a little too excited on this board and make comments in haste that are often misdirected, as in your case.
Upin address
I have this address for upin, and just checked it and it is up and running.
http://upin.ecare.com/
PS: You can Google her address and get - sm
a map & driving directions right to her door. Or, if all you have is her phone number, Google that, or try a reverse directory. Even if it's unlisted, you can probably narrow down her vicinity by area code & first 3 digits of the number. Then look up local office supply stores in the area - Staples, Office Depot, etc., see if she has an account with any of them. You might get lucky. If all else fails, a P.I. can probably locate her for you. I've had good luck with running down people in-person. Got one in a restaurant entertaining other clients, and one at work on her payday. Got paid IMMEDIATELY by embarrassing the hold U-know-what out of them in front of their peers. If all else fails, sue. $12,000 might not be Small Claims Court, though. Still that's 'way too much money to just walk away from and write off as a loss. And the longer you wait, the harder it will be to catch her.
'Go SIC 'em, girl!'
email me your address
I would be happy to give you mine. I don't use it.
I'm not surprised the address is the same,
And I'm sure they're already driving the Bentleys and living the high old life, while we're slogging through the mud carrying them on our shoulders. I think that it's time for that little game to come to an end.
help with address book
Help please. I am doing all my transcription in Microsoft Word. Can someone tell me how to set up my address book so that when I got to Tools, Letter & Mailings, Envelope so that when I click on the address book a list of my doctors comes up and I can just insert it?? For some reason, I cannot figure this out!!!!
Here is the website address
Here you go:
https://www.dittranscription.com/dittrans/pages/default.asp
Just copy and past this in the address bar, it should get you there.
