York, PA here. Hi to the both of you!

Upstate New York
I have finished my MT course and I am waiting for my results, hopefully this week. I live near Glens Falls, New York, and was wondering if there was anyone here who was from my area. I would love to hear from anyone in the vicinity. Elsie
My New York relatives used to rag on me:
and say when I visited, "She's from Massatoothetts where they thay 'Pahk the cah in Havaad Yaad.' " (Note: My relatives have no teeth, hence the lisp.)
Cue the banjo's.
anyone from York, PA area? sm
i am looking for info on an OB/GYN named, Rosean Freundel. i can't find her on any of the MD websites. anyone have any contact info on her? she delivered my SIL's baby and she needs to request her records. she delivered at York Hospital about 2 years ago.
I LIVE IN NEW YORK, BUT...SM
right now work as a ful-time employee status. Do I understand your post to mean that I, as a New York resident, cannot work as IC if I chose to? Thx.

Stephanie from PA: I've been to York sm
to the H-D assembly plant a few years ago. Loved the area there and the proud people working for H-D. So sad to see the demise of the jobs in the PA steel mills and the loss of jobs in the American auto industry to foreign manufacturers. Very sad, indeed. I come from a manufacturing area, now virtually ghost towns with just service jobs left.

No way, in New York or CA you can't live on $11.50 an hour.
I understand your message and get what you are saying; however, it is literally impossible to live on $11.50 an hour in those two states, and probably a few others. You can't even get a 1 bedroom studio apartment for less than $1500 a month, not including utilities, then food, clothing, and other bills. Sorry, can't do it.
Hi Ella! I'm from New York City
I grew up in NYC.. multicultural, diverse, many different neighborhoods. I love NYC . Rude New Yorkers are a stereotype. All kinds of people here. Visit it sometime.
Love your posts, though... ths is an MT board - active, retired, former, and anyone who's thinking about becoming one.
X-press
Are you willing to give any info? Did you work for them? Thanks!
Does anyone know anything about the Greenwood Lake area of New York?
.
Where's the press release?
?
We should all send this to the Associated Press too,
which would be published in newspapers across the whole country.
info@ap.org
Press the FN key and Scroll (next to F12)

I'm in upstate New York, haven't had a problem. Mine is hvc. Where are you?

Just curious: I RESIDE IN NEW YORK and you in a little village in the Midwest, right?...nm

has anyone heard of x-press transcription
i took a test with them last week and hadn't heard anything. any info?
thanks
Of course not, the press release has already been released...sm
and it's all over the local news. Couldn't even tell my family until the press release went out. Actually, couldn't even tell my coworkers before the press release went out. Thanks for your concern, but I'm well versed in security, etc.; particularly this past week.
I wish we had a big button we could press that went BZZZZZZTT!!

There is an Associated Press article in today's sm
paper about increasing car sales in India. The Indian people are enjoying higher wages and are now able to purchase cars. Car makers are scrambling to get pieces of this new, juicy pie.
I wonder how long it's going to take before sending our work to India is not cost effective for the MTSO anymore. The Indian MTs won't be able to live on their 2 cpl anymore and will need more, and more. It's going to be interesting to see this evolve.
There's hope for us!
just press the Ŗ" button to slow it down
The "3" key speeds it back up
Hold Shift and press F3 twice
F3 cycles through sentence case, uppercase, then all lowercase.
I sent it to 2 staff writers for the Associated Press plus...
Forbes Magazine, 60 Minutes, USA Today, Washington Post, NY Times, and a couple of others. The Editor who e mailed me did not know I was an MT but that's okay - you investigate one offshored industry, you investigate them all. I asked him to check into any credible sources he had. You may have noticed in my letter it constantly said, "See what you can find out."
You can still highlight your word and press Alt-T-A to... sm
get to the Autocorrect dialog box in 2007. Your highlighted text is already in the With box. Just type your abbreviation and tab to the OK button and hit Enter. A lot of the old shortcuts still work even though the menus are no longer on the ribbon.
weird..if you look up the profiles, the "guy from Iowa" is from New York..wonder if he origina
came from Iowa? I don't think Guy will win..thats too easy. It better NOT be that snotty Carissa..that is one show I'd NEVER watch. I like the "Iowa" guy.
Gee, wish all these newyorkers would meet on the New York State board. It gets lonely up here.

accutype, x-press transcription, Medquist
Help! Need some info please. I have been an MT since 1992 first in a clinic setting, and now in hospital since 1996. I have been doing Radiology transcription and love it. I have been looking for an at home job for the past couple of months and have been offered a couple positions. I currently get paid by the hour and have no idea how to convert my work to line count. I have been offered .075, .08 and .09 no spaces? Anyone type PET scans and know what the line count is on a report like that? They told me they would give me 9 reports and I would be busy all day which I can't believe because I can usually type 25-30 reports an hour of MR, CT, US, MN and general x-ray.
Thanks, TLB
Have always heard good things about X-Press
and have heard they pay really well
Any current info on X-press Transcriptions?
I was told that I passed their test and was sent an IC contract out, but just wondering about any good/bad experiences before I sign for sure. Also, how are the pay and accounts? Thanks! 
Press Alt + F9 to toggle on field codes.
Or go to tools, options, and check field codes on the view tab.
You need to press shift key and caps lock. You may
need to do it a couple of times. I transcribed for many years and never had a problem, but the last couple of years I have this happen about once a month. It isn't a malfunction of the keyboard - it is user error :).
Pasted info from their website. York Hospital is part of Wellspan.

Moderator, it is not copyrighted, it's a press release, sent to me via email. However,
the link is included and can be viewed at MTIA's web site. EVERYONE should read this....it affects our future. I do not doubt the hundreds of resumes MTSOs receive today in response to job postings will dwindle to a handful. The entire credentialing process is geared to one way only, and that is lining the pockets of those who have led the way to destroy a once honorable profession. Why would anyone want to go through the process to earn a substandard living today, certification not withstanding? Does anyone think the MTSOs are going to pay a much higher premium for a credentialed MT? Come on...get real. If they are outsourcing today to make more money, does anyone really think they will bring those jobs back and pay EACH AND EVERY credentialed MT a livable wage, money out of their pockets?
www.mtia.com...if the link does not work.
I would not be holding press conferences criticizing the government I want to help me find my
daughter nor offending the citizens of the country I wanted to support me. She has clearly lost her mind and needs a spokesperson and she should vent to her husband not the world, although her vents and concerns are unfounded according to their attorney and the prosecuters. They did not have EVIDENCE to keep these brothers. No EVIDENCE. What part of this doesn't Mrs. Twitty get.
I have given my kids cell phones..and taught them how to press and hold the key to call me..so that
My kids are only 6, 8, and 9 and i used to think it was silly to give kids that age cell phones, but not anymore!!
Press Ctrl+Shift+8 or click on the pilcrow on the toolbar (looks like a backwards P). nm

okay, york hospital said they had delivery records, but no prenatal records. sm
they had no idea who she practiced with or anything like that and of course SIL doesn't know any name other than Freundel. i am also a midwife besides being an MT and in order for me to take her given her bicornuate uterus, i have to have her records. i guess delivery records is better than nothing, LOL, but i have to have her prenatal records. i wonder if there is a clinic there or something that med students rotate through. i couldn't even find ms. freundel on AMA, but she may not be through with her training yet either and that is probably why.
hit left Shift key 3 times, then right Shift key 3 times -

Good anatomy book is "Gray's Anatomy" (Running Press), soft cover, and inexpensive

Question to a long timer. I have been transcribing for 15 years. I have been with one hospital for 10 years. I recently added a part time national using the same equipment and same format as my original account. For my original account I average 15-20 minutes an hour. After a month with second account, I am still only at about 8 minutes an hour. They do have a lot of ESL but so does my primary account (just not as bad, even when I first started them). I'm suppose to do a certain amount of minutes for this secondary acount, thinking I could do it in 2-3 hours a day, but I just can't reach my goal and I just do not have the time to work any more hours. Any advice?
Too much, several times a day.....but usually only for a

End of times?
Does anyone think this unusually hot weather in practically all parts of the U.S. has anything to do with Bible predictions?
