How much more can they squeeze out of us!
Silly. Someone was probably paid big bucks for thinking of that one. If we eliminate all the periods, we will make less money. Wake up and smell the coffee! Pretty soon we will be transcribing in shorthand, which the hospitals will convince the docs to accept
Some companies try to squeeze blood out of you
and as long as someone does it, that makes them think they can continue to do it. I would not do it for free. If they ask you to do it, then tell them what you charge. If they don't buy, then they are not worth working for. That's why all the industry rates are going down, down, down. Too many who just continue to work for free or low wages. We have to stand up for ourselves or the industry will just keep going down as we have seen it for a decade.
The MR reports were being filed. Referring physicians/medical care providers reports were not.
This is a hospital radiology department with in-house MTs and a clerk who is in charge of the report distribution.
The two sentence normal reports will balance out the 3 page reports.
I am Wendy too
Right, that's what I do, it's a game!
They seem to be trained to speed-speak anyway, so why not join in on the fun!
This is not a game.
If there really is an error on page 50, please let me know where it is, and I will mark my book accordingly, so I don't have to cross-reference every term on that page wiith Stedman's until I find it. To me this is neither fun nor funny. I only type one specialty and there are many terms obsscure enough to me that I won't automatically spot them as a typo.
Yep, except the game with Bill
was minus the odor and the little white crabs marching around the stogie.
Game ideas
At one party for my daughter, I wrapped up a small, age-appropriate gift in several (maybe 5-7, I don't remember) layers of wrapping paper. Then the girls sat in a circle and passed the present around to music. When the music stopped, whoever was holding the gift got to remove 1 layer of paper. The one who took of the last layer of paper, got the gift.
Also, our youth group had a balloon tower contest. Each team had a bunch of balloons and several rolls of clear tape. Then they had 10 minutes to blow up the balloons and build a tower using the tape. Whoever built the biggest tower won. Of course, we had some older kids in the youth group. Younger kids might have trouble tying the balloons.
Well those of us that have figured it out know your game :)
At least I know enough to offer to make my husband a sandwich when he's looking through the new truck section in the paper.
Works every time. 
Need is not a factor in this game. (see m)
There is absolutely no point to having a game at all if you are going to give the money to whoever "needs" it.
It's a competition, pure and simple. Sometimes wealthier people are wealthier for a reason: they are competitive. But I definitely believe that in no way ever should need be considered. That just completely detracts from the spirit of the game.
blame game..........sm
As for the *blame game* - most states and MOST judges don't care....they don't care if your spouse is caught in bed with people. Hopefully the OP's state is like that. Many states today are *no contest* states. If you want a divorce, you can get a divorce in most states with no contesting. If the OP's state is not like this - is not a *no contest* state, the OP needs to file for a divorce in another state, where the OP would need to get residency status in that particular state (using someone's address who you know real well).
Persistence is the name of the game
Your brochure/flyer/business card has to be there at the time they need someone. You need to do multiple mailings and concentrate on those areas you want to work. Use your present accounts for referrals, offer rewards, etc. I have a secret of getting past the front desk but have been laughed at in the past but it works. But just like selling a house, it takes many open houses to find the person that wants your house so it is the same here. Just do mailings about 3 months apart, they will begin to remember your name.
Oh well then it is fair game if not following
BOS. It could be interpreted any number of ways really. I would probably "sticky-note" it and let the doctor review it to be certain though. We aim to please, us nonBOS'ers. You are not saying though Patti, that all clinic notes, in general, do not follow BOS are you? You are just simply stating that you do not follow BOS for your clinic notes, I am assuming. 
This game is kind of fun!
Can you find the typo on page 50 of the BOS?
I think some drs see dictation as a game. How

Yup, it's an endless game (sm)
with downloading the supposedly free versions to find infections, then wanting you to spend money for the fix. It's like you are in between a rock and a hard place. Hopefully, someone with experience on this matter will offer their opinion(s).
By any name, the rotten game is still the same! nm

I'm game. And I could use a vacation, even if
I can't afford to do anything but watcth TV. (As long as I still have electricity, that is...)
Please, stop the Blame Game
Again, aren't we all in the same boat here - FT, PT, IC, SE, we are all MTs... isn't the point here that those of us who are having a difficult time with the co. we work for (specifically, for me, MQ) that we are all trying to validate, encourage, and hopefully figure out a way to hold the COMPANY responsible??? I don't know the answer, but I DO KNOW that blaming each other, ICs, SEs, FT employees, whatever, is NOT the answer. Geez.

If you only knew, my dear.
We used to play the game that former president Bill Clinton and Ms. Monica Lewinsky played. Do you remember that game they played with the stogie?
And that was after the guy playing a video game

Feast or Famine is the name of the game at FN
As the previous poster said, the workflow for the last few months has been horrible. My pay has been severely cut due to the overhiring they have done.
If you don't mind starving for a while (LOL), it's an okay company to deal with, with the exception of their QA department, which I believe are some of the rudest I've ever come across.
Pay seems pretty good if you don't mind not having bennies or direct deposit.
Overall, I would give them a "C". 
No it does not show in the game controller
machine and it is not recognized in the game controller there either. But thank you anyway.
I used to own a game called Kensington . . .
It is an awesome game that can be played by two players or with teams, red and blue pegs, and a board with triangles, squares, and hexagons, with the object being to be the first person or team to fill-in all points of a hexagon with your pegs(of either your peg color or one of the white ones).
It is very fun, but an ex-roommate has mine, and I have only found used copies available on-line, but have not as of yet followed through with a purchase.
I also like Uno, Spades, and Farkle . . . to name a few.
Picky is the name of the game IMHO. Either it's right or it's not.

is it a game port adapter?
If it is, you may have to click on "gameport" on Express Scribe
Does anyone use a game port pedal and use
I am considering employment with a company that uses a pedal for the audio that may require a sound card be installed on my PC. I currently use a USB wav pedal to receive dictation that are dss files, wav, etc. Does anyone know if I can install the sound card and still use the USB wav pedal or would that take a lot of tinkering back and forth. I am considering Zylomed, and I think they use MT World. Would anyone be able to offer any information regarding this type of situation? Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
Dodgeball is a horrible game.
We had to play with the boys, and they could throw really hard. I weighed half what they did, and I was terrified.
Actually, dodge ball is the one game I

During the Packers game they showed
current temperatures around the world. Greenland, Moscow, Alaska were all around 20 degrees. In Greenbay, WI, it was -2 degrees! Funny.
I guess I don't know how to play the game
When your employer cuts your pay (I'm an IC) to the tune of about $400 a month and tells you if you don't like it you can go elsewhere...and every place else pays even less.
-scratching head-
It's not ME undervaluing myself, it's the market and employers who get away with not paying a livable wage.
the game sounds pretty disgusting...
Not sour grapes - We recorded the game
and have watched those plays more than a few times.
Especially the one where he was CLEARLY NOT over the line with the ball, only his shoulders and HE KNEW IT. He looked RIGHT at the camera as if to say, "Am I gonna get away with this"?
The ball was far too low underneath him to be even close to his head. Watch the replay and see for yourself.
I will admit it. I cried. Cried like a baby! I (sniff) still (sniff) can't.... talk about it much. Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I watched the game and have been a football fan for 40+ years.
excuse-making sore loser like you are.
Again, grow up.
You can't make people up this late in the game!
LOL
Cirie has done a wonderful job playing the game.
I'm thinking if anyone else keeps her that she could win. They all talked about getting her out way back at the beginning, but she's gotten this far. GO CIRIE!!!
Terry has done a great job getting the immunity to keep himself in the game, and we all know he has the idol for extra immunity, but I do believe he's getting cocky and that rubs me the wrong way. He'll definitely be around awhile, but can he make it to the end?
If the other two, Aris and Danielle(?) got to the end, everyone would have a hard time choosing who should get the money, so they certainly should stick to working together, don't ya think?
You also might have to go to Control Panel/Game Controller, and add it in there. nm

I had a little game I called "Ka-Ching"...(sm)
Of course, this goes back to the days before all our PCs were hooked up to the Internt and spied-upon by the Suits:
I was in-house, and dealt with all the docs directly. Sometimes their demands were reasonable and polite, other times they were yelled at me rudely. If THEY made a mistake, I got blamed for it.
Finally, I decided every time they treated me badly, it was gonna cost 'em. Of course, I was paid per hour (bi-monthly) by the medical center, not by the piece. So how to charge them for their rudeness? Their yelling? Their blaming me for everything?
If a doc came in and hassled me needlessly about something, "Ka-Ching"! I left 15 min. early without noting it on my time sheet. If I got blamed for something they did wrong and not me, "Ka-Ching"! Another 15 minutes. If they came into my office and screamed at me, it was an even BIGGER "Ka-Ching".
So, the angrier and the more stressed they made me feel, the more "Ka-Ching" I needed in order to make myself feel better. Did I feel guilty about cheating on my timesheet? Absolutely NOT. (Especially when one factored in how many of THEM were cheating a heckuva lot MORE on their income taxes, their wives, etc. etc.)
Anyway, when someone really ticks you off, a little passive aggression, as Martha Stewart says, can be "A Good Thing."
Try Control Panel/Game Controllers and add it

Shop for a "USB to game port adapter".
Staples, Radio Shack or Office Max should have them. ebay should have them. If not, Google for a seller.
Get a game port/USB adapter from Radio Shack - This will at
problem. I am sorry you are having trouble. I love my Dell, but use serial port (9-pin) for my work. Have used the game port adapter at a previous job without a problem though.
Burgers and fries...kids game tonight..nm

I'd still hire an attorney, especially if the blame game is involved.
If either or both parties are getting nasty, it's best to go by the book and make sure all your T's are crossed and all your I's are dotted. Can't do it on your own if there is any anymosity involved.
Son's Football Game and Daughter's Volleyball Tournament sm
both High School sports. The busy schedule begins!
I use an adapter, but mine is game port and not serial. I
didn't need any drivers for it to work. Have you tried rebooting?
Look under Control Panel/game controllers and see if it's listed there, too. nm

As for wrapping......that's another ball game (hope to do it all tonight, we'll see). - nm
