Hey that's the song she sang! Who does that?
x
Exactly, because the way she sang her last song stunk
nm
NOOOOO, Kat sang 1 song decently
and I CAN'T STAND HER. I knew last night was going to be a lot of low-cut tops for her. I just really can't stand her. I think she believes she can sing certain types of songs but her voice is definitely more suited for the softer songs. Simon saw it, why else would he have her sing "Over the Rainbow."
Ah well, Elliott will be around whether he's kicked or not.
I believe TAYLOR HICKS is our NEW AMERICAN IDOL!!!
MEATLOAF wrote and sang that song
Celine Dion did it close to 20 years later - Meatloaf has always been like he is - even when he was younger.
What is the name of the group that Chris sang with? Great song! nm
vv
I thought she had a bad night with the country song, really sad though
because her voice is one of the BEST.
I'm rooting for Chris, too.
Exactly...her getting booted has to do with
votes. Nothing more. If the American public did not call and vote for her for whatever reason, then that is just too bad. You cannot generalize it by saying that it was because of a certain *type of song*. She didn't get the votes. PERIOD!
I'm sure this will get me booted, but you are a flaming moron, my dear,
and you make no sense at all. "too bad sometimes people can learn if they push their ego and need to be right at any cost aside" What the hell are you talking about? That sounds like baby babble and makes no sense. And by the way, I'm smarter than you in that I can string a sentence together that is punctuated properly and makes sense. And if posting on a fun thread such as this one with the nasty, nflammatory remarks you made isn't trolling, then I don't know what is.
Well actually i was referring to the fact that he/she has been booted off the site
so many times and is stupid enough to keep doing this LOL.
they get booted due to lack of caller votes..nm
he also sang helterskelter
nm
did my own once - called the system myself and sang
happy birthday to another MT, then ASN the job to her as it was her birthday. We were watching the job screen and then we were all watching her face as she got the job, was first confused, then it dawned on her what she was listening to - too funny!
Who is the dark haired guy, boyish looking, sang Sinatra? I think he's out

Many many crappy jobs for me
1. Emergency Room admissions clerk in a back-woods hospital in rural Western Pennsylvania dealing with drunks, freaks and worse on the 11-7 shift while working with a bunch of angry, nasty shrews who hated life in general and were too busy hating the rest of the staff to pitch in and actually do any work.
2. Working in medical records department of another back-woods Western Pennsylvania hospital (family owned and operated, I kid you not) where the medical records director was the 30-something girlfriend of some 90-year-old racketeering buddy of the hospital's owners and she got hired as MR department director directly from the bangle bracelet counter at the mall.
There are more but these two stick out in my mind the most.
I just think it's crappy to judge m
someone's ability to responsible by their credit report, especially in these times when you can make the same amount of money as you have been and have just the basics (no luxuries) and everything has gone up and you scrape to make ends meet. I know many people like this now. I've even read articles on how people are in worse credit card debt than ever because of what I just described and they're bridging the gap by having to charge x amount each month to get by. It's very sad. Because one's credit is poor most often isn't because of a lack of responsibility or willingness to pay, just life happening.
Yep they are a crappy school. Unfortunately too
many take the course because it is cheap compared to the good schools, but it ends up costing more when they can't get a job and need further schooling/training.
Have you posted your resume on the job boards?
Knowing about foot pedals or other equipment is no big deal, what you need to know is the terminology, good grammar, research skills are things you need.
You can look for a mentoring program. Some companies will pay you a minimal amount for any work you do. There are some companies who want you to pay a monthly fee. I don't know the names of companies, but there are companies that are not legit, so be sure and ask about them.
You could also apply to local clinics/doctor's offices, and hospitals. You would have to work on-site, but that is the best training you can get.
I'm sorry that you have crappy QA. I wish I had you to edit. sm
A good QA will not do that. Where are you working that you have such bad QA personnel? I'm not wanting to go to that company, lol.
Hope it gets better and you get helpful mentors.
I'm not currently in QA, but crappy dictators
isn't the only reason for QA. You'd be surprised at the crappy work that some MTs do and QA corrects the errors so they bad work isn't going to the client. Some MTs don't feel the need to proof their work, believe that is what QA is for.
crappy work
Must be coincidental, I just had it out today concerning your posting. I sent a copy of it to the owner, I got a return message to never email "her" (the owner) again from the original person I sent it to. Hmmmm, my email with cc to the owner must of sent of sparks! (about what is really going on). Cherry pickers they are!
but where do all the CRAPPY VR dictations
come from, then?
I guess, crappy dictators are EVERYWHERE !
But we all want to leave our crappy nationals...
and go BACK to the office! LOL. We're TIRED of the peace and quiet!
If so i bet they are a crappy MT. You have to KNOW anatomy to be good.
;P
downright crappy and unfair!!! SM
MQ paid 30% less pay for ASR reports, and they took just as long to edit as they did to type sometimes, so was very frustrating. I have heard some companies pay straight line rate difference, i.e. if you make 7 cpl typing, you'll make 4 cpl for ASR. It is totally unfair, as like I said, it does take quite some time to edit ASR, some more/less than others. Needless to say, I left MQ for KS, who does NOT do ASR!!!!
somewhat. would help if the quality of the dictation wasn't so crappy. nm
nm
Guess what? There would be no cherrypickers if there were no CRAPPY DICTATORS! nm
x
Yes some crappy India people get this work
But I think it is also a great opportunity to keep this IN the USA.
sick of working for crappy companies?
I have been thinking about starting my own company. I have done some research and it looks like all I really need is an FTP site, handhelds (that the doc's purchase themselves), and to get accounts. If anyone is interested in doing this with me let me know...or if anyone has any other information on starting a company input would be appreciated!
Why are we working as IC's and the companies are making profits off of us? Lets cut out the middle man and make the money we deserve!!
I wouldn't hire you with that crappy attitude either.
nm
Pretty sad when you have to settle for a crappy company because all the rest are no better.

How true, I have one very crappy doc that drives me nuts, just got done 10 minutes of him that is-sm
riddled with blanks. I go through it once more, then the office mgr goes through it and fills in what I cannot get. We have an understanding that I do what I can then send it in luckily on him. It is an all-around non-money making account....I waste my time, she wastes her time then the owner proofs it. This doctor even has horrible residents who dictate for him. If there was not so much background noise I would do a lot better but they somehow manage to find the most horrible place to do their dictation and go to town with it........surprised I still have hair left. I told them that if we continue to do this guy (the doctor had decided to stop using the service but changed their mind recently) that I should be paid double (I get the bulk of this twit) and they should charge more to do him due to all the heck he puts us through. ------Can't wait to see what happens with that one!
Venting session = so tired of crappy MT companies...
I have just about had it! I mean I have over 14 years experience as Transcriptionist and all I can get is crappy pay rates, which now I am okay but could be better....And I am tired of getting crappy accounts! Whenever I ask to switch over to a different account, they tell me no. And these companies want PERFECTION, even though noone is perfect, for peanuts! I have seen places where they want you to work set hours even though you are an IC. What is up with that? Plus these places never off any good benefits, if any. What are we supposed to do. I am ready to go to a retail job or fast food. Somewhere where I can get out of the house, do my job and not have to worry about it all day long - not have to worry if I get an 9 hour shift worth of VERY BAD dictators. I bet I could surprise myself at how many hamburgers I could flip in an hour because I sure am tired of seeing how much crappy doctors I can type in an hour.
Does anyone else feel this frustrated? What happened to this profession?
Actually, it is retranscribing from scratch, because the software is so crappy. Same work, sm
less money.
any encouraging words for a newbie with crappy line counts?
Today is my 3rd day of "real" work (not school) and I did 482 lines in 5.5 hours. That averages out to about 87 lines an hour.
How many lines per hour did you average at first? How long did it take to get faster?
I accepted an acute care position to get more experience, but now I'm wondering if I should have gone for a company offering clinic notes accounts ...
Please tell me it gets better!
If you work from a pool, it's when others are leaving you the crappy reports by skipping over the
s
Why would I go backwards? Simple thing is to fire the MTs whose quality is crappy. Weeded out abou
I get paid rather well, but I really should not have to do an MTs job. The point is I DON'T WANT TO TYPE!! Why would I want to be an MT and type ALLL THE TIME?
song
Is it by hank williams junior. All my rowdy friends or something like that. Just thought I would try to help.
do you know this song?
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
'Cause that's the night that my sweetie and I
Used to dance cheek to cheek
I don't mind Sunday night at all
'Cause that's the night friends come to call
And Monday to Fridays go fast
And another week is past
But Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
I sing the song that I sang for the memories I usually seek
Until I hear you at the door
Until you're in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
I sing a lonely song
and everything seems wrong
you know saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
and I sing a song for the memories I usually seek
Until I hear you nocking at my door
Until you're in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night
Saturday night is the doggone lonelest night in the week
Until I hear you at the door
Until you're in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
Song came first...
Charlie Manson thought it was a message to him to do what he did (actually he wasn't man enough to do it himself he had his groupies do it)
This song says it ALL ! (sm)
As I was driving home tonight, I heard a song on the radio that says it all about the current situation in the U.S., especially for the (former) middle class! It's called,
"We Can't Make it Here" by James McMurtry.
You can find it on Limewire, among other places. Every word of his song packs a punch because they're so true.... very few of us in the U.S. are making it anymore, thanks to greedy CEOs. Check it out ! 
song
I listened to this song and you are so right, the song says it all!
I felt crappy for 8 days..while coming off carbs..but now feel great..don't forget calories still
for those who are carb sensitive..its a godsend and a lifestyle. I really like this site: http://www.lowcarbluxury.com
there are TONS of wonderful recipes. I made the chicken cordon blue for the whole family and mock mashed taters..yummy!! Obviously not the same but I was a happy camper to have mashed again. Good luck!
I will never tell my favorite song, never, never!
Hint: It is a Christmas carol for MTs.
beatles song
Got to be "We can work it out" sentimental reasons, from high school!!
Do you know the song, Complicated?
Hope this works ----
I want him to sing that song

Taylor's LAST song did it for me!!!...sm
TAYLOR HICKS IS GOING TO BE THE AMERICAN IDOL......he's just more genuine!!! Kat is good but whoever posted about Tori Spelling......I don't think Tori is THAT well liked......by the general public...so I don't know how that other poster thinks Tori can pull strings for Kat....
Definitely an awesome song!
xx
You are singing my sad song
What you have described happens to me to and it feels like a personal attack. You can see the ER jobs there, you work your butt off to get to them just to watch them disappear before your eyes. It can cause major depression! This is how we make our living.....don't mess with us!
If you find an answer, I would love to know what it is.
Remember the song ŝ-to-5", which says
That's what I do every morning before I sit down at the PC. Otherwise, I end up dozing off while transcribing, or just staring dumbly out the window.
Remember that old song that goes, "I owe my
That's what comes to mind when I hear of MTSO's actually charging their workers RENT on computers. Forget it. I prefer my own PC anyway - it's higher-quality, it's got tons more memory, it's faster, and I can load anything onto it that I want to. (Video games, PhotoShop, music-downloading software, etc.)
What you're describing is nothing short of pure GREED on the part of the MTSO.
What's your favorite sing-along song when alone in your car?
 Mine are Rose-Colored Glasses and Crazy by Patsy Cline.
