So many people on this board expressed concern for you well being, I was surprised. But I am VERY glad that you did so well and accomplished what you meant to accomplish. I applaud your efforts and wish you the best of luck. I am a bit concerned about the doctor situation though. No doctor should have such control over someone's physical care as to put pressure on someone who works with them. That is not ethical! I understand your concerns about your husband's position and I am not suggesting that you do anything drastic, but it sounds like someone is holding a weapon over your husband's head to make you continue you care with them. You have a right to choose your own doctor and not suffer any consequences. This is still the USA, not matter what her problems, and you still have the freedom of choice. Please continue on your present course of action and only do what you feel comfortable doing, but please keep in mind also that no doctor should FORCE you to take care from them. Please also continue to come here to talk about things. There are some very supportive people on this board, and use them when you need to. All best wishes to you!! You should be so very proud! and bless your husband for being so understanding too!

I agree. When hear/research blank, it is SOOO

But, she said the sex is SOOO good. Isn't this a twisted sort of situation?
She's miserable, but yet the sex is just so darned good? How good could it possibly be from such a jerk? Sounds VERY codependent.
Marry me?! :) Seriously...hear, hear. Good post. - nm

that is so so good to hear
praise God from who all blessings flow...
That's good to hear
This is the first thing my doctor wants me to try.
Good to hear it can be done
I am not skeptical, I am encouraged to know that that much money can be made in this field and am glad you were willing to share it. I'm a fairly new MT (just hit 3 years) and average about $20 an hour as an employee working full time, plus benefits. I feel like I'm doing fairly well, but would like to make more and sometimes get discouraged when I read posts on this board about people with umpteen years of experience making $12 an hour. I know that in many ways this is a tough field, but there are people who do quite well at it, despite all the negative talk.
That is good to hear - sm
I have the same issue. Been using Smartype since it came out for Word (used it in DOS and loved it), but recently bought IT but have not even had time to put it on my computer yet, have it here on my desk for almost a month now, need to get it loaded on my computer and bite the bullet. I have heard to kind of wean yourself into it, and as I have a mountain of work this weekend I guess it will have to wait once again, until Monday, regardless if I have gotten all this work done or not. Thanks for the head's up, gives me some hope!
So sorry to hear this - good luck to you

I hear CareerStep is good
I hear CareerStep is good, online, and they offer placement with companies guaranteed if you make 90 or better on your final.
I was blessed enough to get to train with a friend, work under her for 4 years, then went off on my own, but these days, school is an absolute must. Best of luck to both ladies.
Glad to hear you all had a good time. :)

That's good to hear. Maybe I should give it a chance and see if I like it.
Good luck to you! So sorry to hear about your pain.

Good to hear it. Hope you find it useful. NM

It is great to hear good news!
Good for you!! It is so nice to hear a positive post.
I do not suppose you would care to share your new company?
A good lesson is, if you hear something strange, ..sm
Verify, verify, verify. I have been guilty of not doing that many times. Not to worry. I probably could have said it in a kinder manner. Sorry!
I hear that every day from my account. Awesome feeling isn't it. Good for you
I hope you realize your hard work is appreciated after all!
Wonderful! So nice to hear good things like this!

I am so glad to hear you talk about VR in a good light
I have a jewel of a platform and you can make a decent salary. It is not garbage and like you said, the people here complaining are ones who do not have a good system. You have to be fast in scanning and hearing. If you are a slow typist to begin with, I have no idea how this would play into a person who does really good with VR. I do not fit that category and the people I have know that did VR did not either.
Good to hear an update. See message about "the projects" :)
I got the same deal with my ex. He wouldn't leave me alone because he wanted his beloved 3 bedroom ranch house.
I gave him the house (with my teeny share of equity) and moved into a teeny apartment with my 2 kids. HUGE bedroom bathroom and living room, teeny kitchen, great neighborhood. We all bunked in the same bedroom as there was room for a double bed, single bed and a crib with enough room left over to dance and play with toys. My kids were 5 and 2. We loved that place and it's probably because we finally had some peace and some fun.
My ex did the same thing. He accused me of moving my kids to the "projects" because I wasn't good enough to give them a nice home like the one he had. He still has that house and he lives in it alone and has for nearly 20 years. The last girflriend lasted 6 years and finally gave up on him.
He gave up on his kids almost 10 years ago and they gave up on him the day we moved into the "projects."
Best move I ever made. Happily married now for 13 years with 2 more kids that are considered my older kids' brother and sister, though their donor dad always insisted on calling them "half". "He's not your brother, he's your half-brother."
Idiot
Be strong, hang in there and don't give in. 
P.S. I wasn't looking for another man, I just got lucky I guess. He does forget to take the trash out sometimes though. 
So glad to hear your good news!!!! Eat a candy bar anyway :-) no message

Thank you sooo much,
I have been trying to figure that out for quite some time now. Why isn't that explained anywhere on the site or why isn't there just a tab to click on for "Subscriptions?"
Just wondering, it would sure be easier to do that way.
Thanks again.
Thank you sooo much!
I am in total agreement with you about the Emdat platform and also being able to do more in Word. I really wish there was a way to just type in Word and send the work from there. However, thanks so much for letting me know about how to copy to Emdat. I didn't want to try it until I heard back from someone, so thanks.:)
if they are SOOO BAD
why do so many people work there?
everything is opinion based, just as you didn't like it there, im gonna guess plenty do.
this is sooo cool! Thanks!
I am just sooo depressed
Hello!! I am a newbie, stay-at-home military wife and my husband is the only one working for now. He is deployed right now and I am managing all the finances, since we have separate accounts, I transferred$1000 in my account which made him mad. It felt like I overspent and use the money for nothing. Money that I didn't even spent shopping!!! He knows where the money goes but he still questions me about every single penny I spent and I really felt so bad.
Thank you guys for reading my post. I just felt like sharing this with you. I just need someone to talk to. 
This is sooo true
This is so true. I have been told by the human resource director that the docs will only need a device kind of like a Palm Pilot and that they will key in diagnoses, etc, which somehow which will somehow cover billing, transcription, etc. I guess I could deliver pizzas or go to Wal-Mart. It seems like there will always be PIZZA AND WAL-MART! This is really, really SAD.
My $375 was sooo well spent...
We have a cat and a dog - We have gone through a Fantom, a Hoover wind tunnel, and a Dirt Devil (not in that order, but you get it, about one vacuum every other year - kaplooey with the animal hair - yes I groom my animals but still...they shed)....I bought a Dyson a little over year ago, after seeing it on sale at Sears, looking it up on the 'net, and just being fascinated by the whole vortex deal. I also ended up using a gift card I had as well, which took a bite out of the price. Before buying, I asked the Sears Service Dept and customer service people their "scoop" on the Dyson - they had never had one returned....for any reason in our region of stores - they looked it up for me. I figured that was good enough for me ! I have had no problems whatsoever and absolutely love it. I should have started working at Sears on commission. I have sold 3 of them just by word of mouth..LOL! Gotta love the Dyson - especially with the extra motor in mine (the purple one) for the animal hair - it honestly doesn't ever lose suction!
Not the OP. This is sooo true.
Like when the company looses an account and the Shift lead lies and tries to play dumb like she has no idea why there has been no work for 20 days or more. Yeah right! Big fat liars...most of them.
While at another company based in Florida, I had system problems almost every day. Tech support was a joke. Every time I mentioned it to my Team lead shed say, "I have the same problem everyday" in the most unconvincing voice possible. Big fat liar.
Sooo funny, thanks!

At the end of a day, once, I was sooo tired and would have
preferred to not type at all and yes...I did it, I CHERRYPICKED.
Then, I realized the other MTs were making selections and that is why I was so tired = I was doing the crappy work.
Now, thank GOD, my account does not allow the MTs access to that function in Winscribe - and becoming a cheater isn't an option anymore. Cheater
I am just sooo frustrated!
I am just so frustrated with my production. I am stuck at 800ish lines a day. I have tried Instant Text and Smartype both and I still cannot get over this 800 line mark. I really need to double this at least because I have 2 children to support. Ok thanks for letting me vent
You're sooo right.
We weren't born yesterday.
My ex was wealthy and I was sooo miserable
without going into detail, I will say my health suffered from being with a man whom I sensed did not love me in a deep fashion. That fact cancelled out the 9,000 sq foot home (attached 4 car garage), 2400 cash allowance monthly, the need for me not to work, vacations to exotic places and luxury cruises twice each year, a walk in close the size of my present bedroom. But, you know, I was so lonely. At least with your husband, you will have a man who loves you when you are old. I left that life to nothing, zip, lost my place in MT world after 20 yrs and had to start all over, his attorneys royally screwed me and yes, I was so poor I was hungry, sold all those clothes at second hang consignment shops and begged someone to hire me (MQ at 0.06 cpl). I had dogs so had to buy a home which took every cent I had. Walked out with nothing in the end. I am happy but at 40, that scene is not one a person can go through without subsequent scars.
I am alone now. A fireplace is my company along with two cats. Seven years later, I am at peace finally but I really did let myself down by putting myself through the hell I lived trying to get my life back on track.
The secret to happiness is being thankful for what we have - I say that every day.
You are sooo lucky!!! Congrats!
!
But ohhhh sooo tempting!! LOL
I am sooo computer challenged. Please can you help? sm
I am trying to test for a company that sent me the test via e-mail attachment. The test file had to be unzipped which I did using Winzip. But now, I have no idea how to get it to play. What am I supposed to do now to get me sound card to play it. I feel sooo dumb, but I've just never had to go through all these hoops. I've always just been able to click and listen. Ugh.
I thought Transolutions was sooo fantastic, don't they have something to help you with that?
X
That's sooo not true. The company can change
Nice try but you really don't understand what you are talking about.
Yeah, sooo, MTSO needs to tell MT what facilty
x
Inhouse only lasts sooo long...
I bet if you asked around, the outsourcing rate is moving faster than we think.
There is always the nationals to go back to in case the inhouse job sends ya' packin'....
I agree, and I work for MQ! Sooo boring, soooo old, and
you would think they'd realize how idiotic they look - whining and whining and predicting doom and gloom! Honestly, MQ and Philips is BOOMING in the business world right now. Huge advances the last few months - HUGE sales of products, advances, awards in the industry. I get email alerts daily on the HUGE growth of MQ - and these old sea-hags just sit on here and cackle about DOOM. Boy, do they need a reality check, or what? All is fine in MQ world, and always, always will be! As long as you're willing to work and have a brain, MQ is a great place to work! Oh, yeah, and I'm mgmt - making 6 figures and even remotely interested in sea-hag opinions! That is just soooooooooooooo lame, too! Or maybe I'm the same poster from below who always uses CAPS! That is sooooooooooo funny. Cracked up at that analysis - some of these women have way toooooooo much time on their hands rather than hitting the keyboard! Analysing posts to compare typing styles. Give me a break! What a hoot!
We just had baby bunnies one week ago. Sooo cute!! nm

Brain dead today - or is it hear hear? I'm going to bed.

OMG! Admin really outdid it with this counting software. Thank you SOOO much! It's really super.
I've seen sooo many posts about this....Listen, the 5000 lines isn't a typo.
It's some type of project. If you search the board, you will see the posts and then maybe we won't have to keep top-posting it all over the place?
Hear, hear! I agree with Dakota - sm
The MTSO should be giving feedback to the hospital/doctors who slur, speak too rapidly, etc. They need to pull up their socks! And there's no reason why these doctors shouldn't be given an outline of what is expected from them when they dictate, such as cell phones, chewing food, candy, gum, etc.
Office Space is hilarious! It's an older movie, but sooo funny! The attitude Peter
has (the main character) reminds me of me! Gotta see if you haven't already. I watch it over and over and I still laugh.
My favorite lines:
"Can't you just zonk me out so that I don't know that I'm at work, in here? Can't I just come home and think that I've been fishing all day or something?"
"I don't really like my job and I'm not gonna go anymore."
That is a good offer. Pay is not that good at UIMC. Good luck! nm

i hear you
That sounds like my husband. If he gets "stuck" with the kids the my job interferes with the family life, but when there are too many bills to pay, I spend too much money. I can never win.
I am so sorry to hear about your dog. SM
I know how sad it is to lose a beloved pet. I have lost many over my lifetime and they all stay in my memory. My condolences to you.
i hear it also....
i'm divorced and get told 'how will you ever meet someone if you don't leave the house'.
i also get neighbors asking me to watch for deliveries, let repairmen in, let their dogs out.....just because i'm home they think i'm in front of the tv eating bon bons....when actually i'm posting on this board!!
