Sherri's post

In Reply to: WAY TO GO, SHERI STEADMAN!! I just now saw your post - above regarding Christmas. Thank you! NM

Sherri,


I admire your character.  Whether it is to a company outsourcing to celebrating Christmas, you tell it like it is.  That is right, you are owner of this website and as such you can call the punches.  Always stay true to yourself.

Merry Christmas to you too Sherri
I am so glad more people are standing up for their beliefs
I got the BLING! Thanks for the "ruby" Sherri. I can't believe this

It looks like the genuine article, but the picture of Marilyn Monroe wearing the real deal makes it seem real to me!  I'm also easy to please.  Anyway, thanks again.  Jo


you people underestimate Sherri. nm

You're right, to a point, Sherri
I really WAS very blessed that my first 2 service jobs were under excellent mentors. I have some horror stories from my hospital job after 3 years of service work (yes, I did it backwards, lol!) - the jealousy, the backbiting, the (very wrong) accusations of cherry-picking. Our in-house "quota" was 1000 lines in 8 hours. I could do that and still take a 15-minute break every hour, so I was regularly posting in the 1500's and had once or twice exceeded 2000. The jealous gossip that inspired still confuses me. I tried hard not to talk about my production, but everybody could see everybody else's production for the day, which doctors they had transcribed, how many reports, etc., so there was just no way to avoid being compared to everybody else. The icing on the cake was when I needed FMLA (and then used that up and needed an unpaid personal leave) to care for my dying child. I couldn't leave the job because I was the one carrying the health insurance that covered his treatment, but you better believe I was out of there within 6 months after he passed away!

And I didn't get started talking about a particular supervisor at a particular service (NOT the Q or any of its acquisitions). I was every bit as thankful that she WAS NOT my first supervisor as I WAS thankful that Fran and Carolyn were my first mentors!!!

Anyway, my point to this whole tirade, whether others agree or not, is this: While our profession may be doomed in the long run, we will feel better about ourselves and be able to sleep peacefully at night if we remember to treat others with kindness and respect. We don't have to be everybody's perfect mentor, but at least we can try to not be hurtful, and at least we can find a few to mentor that we are hopeful will succeed.
pay attention, Sherri, might want to clean house next adventure

Ignore my post. I finally found the post on how to do this. nm

Yes, I tried to post same last night about 10 times, and it won't let me post.
I used to breed lab puppies (please no activist flames)! I had a champion female white Canadian lab, and people would be on a list for years if by chance I bred her, which I did twice, and so that I could continue her line.  Anyhow, she's my sweet Skye who passed away 2 months ago? At any rate, we had the same problems with kids in the "hood" who wanted to come over and play once the puppies were old enough to be exercised daily and played with.  At first I thought, how cute, right? Puppies and little kids - what better picture! Well, the majority of kids were adorable, but there were always 1 or 2 sick ones who would smack the pups, smash and hold their heads in the dirt (a real common thing, but I don't know why - psychiatrist anyone).  At any rate, I finally had to ban the whole group due to the 1 or 2 creeps, had to call the police, the whole 9 yards, and that's EXACTLY what the police officer told me - next thing is there will be poison meat or a donut in the yard. He told me to always go out and patrol my yard, especially alone the fence line every day before I let the dogs out, particularly at night. I went out with a flashlight.  It was about a month later, but sure enough - poison meat.  Because there were so many kids involved, we obviously couldn't pin point the exact family, but the police went and read the riot act to them all. It would stop and not happen again for a year or so, but every now and again we would find something. My dogs were NEVER out and barking, so it was nothing like that - it was just over the puppies and the cruel kids.... Not trying to freak you, but that's the way these kids and their families are.  You can really judge someone's character by ill treatment of a PUPPY, of all things. And the parents??  They sound whacked.  Please be careful.
Sorry, I posted this post under the wrong post
Sorry

my post did not all post in the subject, my apologies...
I think you can get the idea.

thanks.
Excellent post! I copied this post and...

Ah, I really meant to post that under the original post
Though it was gourdpainter's post which inspired me to post that suggestion.

Here's an URL for the medical transcription division of PRN Funding, BTW:

what mean post made you post your post
Which mean post was the straw that broke the poster's back.
Yes, she had post partum depression AND post partum psychosis. I posted on this a while back, and
it explained the two. The psychosis actually develops after the depression. Scary stuff.

Don't they post that information when they post the
job listing? 
Thank you for your post
You posted it like it is.  What about this young boys parents??  What was he doing out at 2-3 in the morning??  What kind of parent would allow that??  No where have these posters who are blaming the victim even tried to put blame on this boy.  Amazing.  I hate to say it but the old cliche is true.  very few women stand together or help each other, the claws come out and they attack each other.  This young boy has told several different accounts of what happened that night.  My take is that they put a date rape drug in her drink, as some of her friends said she was acting strangely.

that's all I can do regarding this post-

Yes, we see that. However, this post was done before her post.
Was there even a need for your post?
Your post really says it all!

Best post all day. Thank you. (nm)

is this post from JMO ?

First of all, I can post here if I want. Second, SM
it's not necessarily having a "unique ability to spot a loser right away." Too many women have baby rabies and don't care whose sperm they get, as long as they get that baby. Then, when daddy's true colors come out, it's too late. THEN they so very often breed with them AGAIN. What the hell is wrong with these women? Then then end up "single mothers" with a giant chip on their shoulder, expecting the world to make up for their bad choices.

Yes, dads die. But from what I see 95% of single mothers got that way by having kids with the wrong men.

see, 1600 or 1700 lines in 8 hours.  But I can spend 3 or 4 hours of really doing nothing but typing and do 1000 lines.  I shouldn't take 8 hours to do 1600.  I should be able to 2000.  I find that I get on this board, zone out, get up a lot, etc., after I reach my 1000.  That is what I need to work on!
maybe no one knows anything else to post! nm

I was going to post in regards to this but
honestly I'm not even going to waste my breath!
not one post in particular (sm)
just the general tone of the posts lately...mean, nasty, downright catty...and not necessarily just this board, but the general population as well.  Like driving on the freeway--rude people cutting you off, etc--in the grocery store--the rude cashier--it's everywhere. Can't even hardly go to church anymore without some drama going  on.
the above post is for Mae

This isn't about then, it's about now and also about what you said in your post.
FEMA is responsible to getting relief to ALL the victims.   I realize that it's going to take longer than 1-1/2 weeks, but what I disagree with is the fact that FEMA is more or less making their responsibility the responsibility of the private sector.  They are moving people from the FEMA-sponsored shelters to churches that are receiving NONE of the aid money that has been granted to FEMA until they or the individuals housing the homeless apply for this aid.  There are thousands of people who were already in shelters other than the Astrodome, but very few of these are receiving any substantial aid from FEMA unless approved.  The approval period could take 60 days, what are these people going to do in the meantime?  And a lot of these people in faith-based shelters are ones who have probably never taken a handout in their lives.  They should be included in the immediate relief as well and not have to wait 60 days to be approved for expeditious relief.
Yes, Sorry, saw it after I sent post

Just don't go into the post then.
It's not that hard to figure out. You are so annoying. Don't comment on it if you have nothing normal to say.
That was not my post.

I sure have bad timing!!!

I don't work for this company, but all MTs need to be warned, and if he does not pay then we all should know it.  Some of us have a family to support.  What would happen if you worked and did not get paid when expected, - no groceries for the kids, no electricity, no phone.  I feel this is ALL MTs business even if they do not work for this employer (obviously not an employer) to be warned. So get off your high horse and come back to earth with the rest of us.
