Whats for lunch/dinner??

I am just curious what everyone is having for lunch or dinner.  Need some ideas on what to cook.


Have a good Sunday afternoon.


Whats for Dinner Tonight?

Im hungry already!!


Eating their lunch/dinner while dictating
I have a doctor from Croatia who is hard enough to understand with his "ah" and 'um" but when he's crunching carrots in the middle of it?  Forget it. 
Fall recipe ideas. whats for dinner?

Forget dinner! Just prepared a huge lunch. Skillet chicken: Skinless boneness breasts cooked in skil
golden brown, add can of cream of mushroom soup, 1 cup of frozen mixed veggies, 1/2 c water - cover and cook about 15 minutes.
Then I made homemade mashed potatoes - extra thick - with plenty of pepper :0

Then, boiled my water for my sweet tea....with lemon.

After the chicken is done, pour a cup and a half or so of mozerella cheese on top and let it sit for about a minute or so.

The mixture from the potatoes is a creamy blend with mixed veggies poured over either rice or potatoes. I just make stuff up all the time like this. You could even add crackers to the mixture to give it a crunchy feel. My 2 boys were in heaven today. Of course, I may have to work the night shift when my lunch is finished - when I eat like this during the afternoon I usually skip dinner altogether because of the carb content.

Remember with this dish: You can do it low fat by substituting above ingredients. Also remember to have plenty of color to your diet! Voila!
Most in-house hospital jobs allow only 30 minutes for lunch! So I wouldn't call an hour lunch
"rigid."  If you are an employee, there are rules, set schedules, etc. that you have to expect. 
Dianna, whats ESC?

or do you have their web site?


Thanks again!!



so whats wrong with
sending your mom some flowers and saying you love her and are sorry but you are just dont feel comfortable and hope someday you can talk about it with her. I feel bad for you and I don't know what your relationship with her is, but reach out to her with love whenever you get a chance to no matter how she reacts to you in turn. Who knows, someday she might see the light. But I've found that you really can never tell someone the truth about someone they love without getting in trouble. THey don't want to hear it and won't hear it and it'll only make more distance between you.
Whats on at your house?

TV on for me. I can't do music though. Its usually the food channel or the news channel.  Volume  is where I can hear it but low. 


whats the name of this book?

I am looking for this reference book that I used to use as an in-house Transcriptionist many mooons ago. I can't remember what it was but it wasn't Stedmans... I was thinking Drake, Tessier, or even HPI but I know it wasn't Stedmans.


Anyway, it would allow you to look up the word "needle" and then underneath have a huge listing of all of the different types... or you could look up "retractor" and it would list all the different kinds. It was INCREDIBLY thorough. I want to say it had a green cover but can't be positive.


Does anyone have any ideas? This book was so helpful in-house, I really want it to have at home too! Thanks!!


Whats your secrets?
I need all the help I can get....thanks
MTs out to lunch

No--she is lunch!!!!

I agree... whats funny though

is when there is a group e-mail about proofing work and the specific e-mail about proofing had 2 spelling errors....and the e-mail is a total of 3-4 sentences.  


I dunooooooooo.


I do believe we had the same PS and WFC... when you talk about dropped letters LOL.


I don't care if they aren't typists..they certainly get paid more than me and should be way more professional. I certainly wouldn't get a job as anything if I sent a resume like that. They are supposed to set an example.. they are our *bosses*.


 


whats wrong with being happy sm
they got caught? That is one thing wrong with this industry. It has turned into "production"only, nobody cares about quality and they want to screw you out of money. If her skills are good they know it and they will need them. If this gives her "bargaining" power and she wants to go back, so be it. It would be hard for me, but if I wanted and needed the job I would suck it up and go back. They aren't going to do this crap again. If everyone would turn these people in, then this junk would stop. I take great delight in the fact that places are finally getting caught for cheating people. They should.
breaks and lunch

I think the way it goes is that you must be allowed to take breaks and lunch.  I was an employee for a company that did not care when you worked, as long as you met turnaround time. 


Could you have lunch delivered for
the staff one day? I'm not suggesting anything too pricey, but something they all enjoy. A donation in their name to an animal rescue in your area might be appreciated as well. Congratulations on your puppies!
hypospadias is a word - whats your question?

So.....Nuance bought Dictaphone or Dictaphone changed their name...?  What is the website for dictaphone....Nuance? 


Thanks!!!!!


I don't know, but my appetite for lunch just left me.

You 2 should find each other and do lunch sometime! I'm too far away to join ya...nm
s
If you are FT employee, must take two 15 min breaks and 30 min lunch
But, I am sure, many MTs do not do this and say they do.
take my lunch break and take a dip in the pool

I had one who decided lunch time ....sm
would be a good time to dictate.  Opening wrappers, eating, drinking, etc.  I was so repulsed by the eating sounds, I was ready to give them up.  I called my contact person about 3 x and asked her  to ask him to stop.  Finally, I called the manager.  When she approached him about it, HE DENIED IT!!!  Said he didn't eat while dictating.  Of course, she believed him and was dumbfounded at what I could be hearing!  I told her I knew what I was hearing and  it had to stop.  Anyone who has ever heard that sound while transcribing KNOWS they are eating.  What a jerk.  Interestingly, the eating stopped, and I still have the account.
Lunch- -most important meal of the day!
I work 35 hours a week. I have a scheduled 8-hour shift and take a 1-hour lunch break, leaving me with 7 hours of production a day. My advice is to do the 35-hour schedule. You'll probably be more productive (lph) at 35 hours than 40, and you'll always be able to add extra hours later if you want to. Don't skip lunch or eat at your desk. You'll feel so much better if you take a real lunch break everyday.
Its human nature to impose on other people whats right for yourself!

Even when its not asked for.  Maybe some people like to surround themselves with nonsense and chaos, where as I like peace and quiet!  I think people who like working with other people are either pretending or just plain crazy! 


I make lunch ahead of time and

my child has never complained about the bread being hard.  Maybe because we use 100% whole wheat and it is already kind of dry?  I have just never heard that complaint from anyone


I make lunch right after clearing up dinner and that way if we all oversleep by accident, at least its one less thing to have to worry about.  We have enough stress in the morning.


 


Rule of thumb - THERE'S NO FREE LUNCH
If you don't want to do much, don't expect to make much. That's just the way it is.
Vigo whats his face from Lord of the Rings!!!!! YUMMMM


Someone paddles my kids, they will find my fist for lunch!!!

I'm having a homemade roast beef sub and chips for lunch.

DH can probably BBQ hot dogs and burgers for dinner because I don't feel like cooking.


My employer took all MTs out to lunch today in recognition of National MT Week and we got a new
Drake & Drake Pharmaceutical Word Book!  First time I have worked anywhere that actually recognized MTs for this week.
I worked in a hospital and I could make differrent arrgmts for lunch if I needed to.
Don't let the OP scare you off from investigating.

Do what is right for you.

moms? lunch cunundrum - am I a less-loving mother if I make his PB&J tonight and refrigerator it?

Dinner
Stouffer's frozen - chicken enchaladas with rice. It is sooo good and tastes homemade!
73 and nothing for dinner!

Everyone is gone!  I've had a chicken sandwich and I'm getting my weekend work done so I can have some time off when everyone is home.


 


What is everyone else having for dinner?
It is unseasonably cool here this week and I have been thinking about a pot of chili. 
We don't go out to dinner at all.
We'll order pizza, grab takeout or go out to lunch maybe three or four times per month.
What's for dinner??


Chili, salad, cornbread. 


 


Out to dinner
On the money I make doing MT, I'm lucky if I can pay all my bills much less go out to eat. I was better off 20 years ago when I actually had enough money left over to be able to do so.
What's for dinner??
Boxed white cheddar mac and cheese, big salad, garlic bread.  Not very exciting.
What is for dinner
Is that all you think about is food?
