Well spoken. No one seems to care that these foreign parasites are compromising the integrity of their own patient records with their slovenly dictation styles!!!!!!!!!!!

soooo true
I was hired as a QA manager and the company I work for have been trying to demote me every chance they get, promoting the less qualified, etc etc. It is clear that a good MT is more valuable to a company as just that, an MT. Sooo try not to be as good and you might move up in the ranks. LOL;
Your BOS post is soooo true! sm
There are so many newer MT's who don't know the facts where BOS is concerned. I use my BOS everyday.... it elevates my monitor to just the right height. 
Thank you SOooo much MQA !...
Just what I needed! You don't know how much you have helped! I have printed your response. I was trying to make it too hard by overthinking like I always do. My physical therapist keeps hinting that one of their (at home) transcriptionists left, HINT HINT, and I have been afraid to talk to the office manager because of all of the logistics stuff.
One more question: About the 3$ a page...could you explain a little more about that. What about half pages and the like? Have you figured out what kind of cpl that equals? However, the 3$ a page sounds like a much easier way to calculate the bill.
Thanks again!
That is SOOOO right-on!
you are soooo right.

Thank you soooo much. I thought it was just me.
That Indian MT who lives in the US story and cherry picks while not wanting to do Indian bad dictators just was too much! And the insider who told the MT this was happening. Wow! For two months!!! How long should it take for the Indian MT to cherry pick before she does the Indian dictators? Blah, blah, blah. How and why do people do this to themselves?
It is the nature of the business just like sales. You win some, you lose some. There is feast and there is famine. Do the work while it is there because tomorrow it may be dry. Don't like the work, get another job.
What hospitals?? I'm soooo there
You are soooo welcome. I'm glad for you!

Too cool! Thank you soooo much sm
MTStars and Executive Communications!
:) Happy MT week! You've made this a really special week for all of us.

I'm sorry, but I would have soooo just walked out of there.
That HAD to be awkward.
I soooo can relate to you!.....sm
Please don't feel so bad, menopause affects your mood, temperament, just so many things about your body that you are used to! I had a radical hysterrectomy back in 2000, so I had to go through menopause "instantly." I could not take the patch and hated HRT, so I have been using naturopathic supplements to help....but depression, mood swings, cravings, the HORRIFIC night sweats and hot flashes, lowered libido....I got it all, and it really is a transition. Could you perhaps speak with a compassionate female therapist, not necessarily a psychiatrist, but someone who understands what you are going through and can hash out all of the issues that are bothering you? Just know that I care, you have friends here, and please feel free to e-mail me anytime, okay?
Thank you guys soooo much!
I knew this was the place to come to get help! 
Laughing - you are soooo right
QA is overrated and yes they do need to get themselves.... QA are MTs that think they know more than a regular MT... in a nutshell.... 
some people are soooo lucky!
Oh yeah, I am soooo scared!
What are you gonna do, ride your horse over here and get me???????
Soooo weird. Hmmmm
 This post refers to the posts below from the ICs from TRX (I am one) - I find it interesting that a person would come on here and call someone out of there name (the owner) and then walk away without explaining how he/she came to their conclusion. Seems a person would want to make their case or maybe just persons like myself and the other IC who stood up to ask why. I'm so confused. I guess we're all just different that way.  Some people are yellow and some aren't. That's right, I said it.
Ok..I will soooo not watch SVU anymore if they
split up Olivia and Elliot!! OMG what a show tonight! 
This is not creamy, but is SOOOO good...
1 cup oil
1 cup vinegar
1 cup sugar
1 Tbsp salt
1/2 Tbsp garlic powder
3 Tbsp parsley flakes (may use less)
1/2 Tbsp black pepper
4 tsp dried mustard
16 oz cooked rotini
1 medium cucumber
1 medium green pepper
Mix all ingredients well, refrigerate before serving.
Note: I leave out the cucumber and pepper when refrigerating, and cut these and add just before serving.
MS Word SOOOO Slow
Has anyone ever experienced a very slow MS Word program all of a sudden? It is very slow to get into and exit from MS Word 2002. Once in the program it is fine and all other programs on computer seem to work fine. Wondering if I may have too many autocorrect and autotext entries?? Any help would be appreciated. have tried everything can think of, even added much memory. Thanks.
Wow to Technical Support! Thanks soooo much! ....
for your extensive answer!
I'll start with cleaning up my mouse and working up from there if this does not work.
I'll let you know.
There are still very kind, knowledgable, helpful and generous people in this world, THANKS !
I was soooo lucky... my son was potty trained at 2..
He had his 2nd birthday party on Saturday, and on Monday he started potty training. Never bought another diaper. Two weeks later, he was in underwear during the day. But, I took him regularly and monitored his juice intake. Thirty minutes after dinner was the last full drink. He would go potty right before bedtime at 8pm and maybe get a little juice if he asked for it. Since I worked nights, I would wake him up (or just take him sleep) to the bathroom at around 12am or 12:30am. He would wake up dry most mornings, but he wore Pull-Ups until he was about 2-1/2. He is 7 now and has an accident every blue moon, mainly because he falls asleep in bed without going to the bathroom right before getting in bed. Proud of him. Yours will get there too.
I agree, and I work for MQ! Sooo boring, soooo old, and
you would think they'd realize how idiotic they look - whining and whining and predicting doom and gloom! Honestly, MQ and Philips is BOOMING in the business world right now. Huge advances the last few months - HUGE sales of products, advances, awards in the industry. I get email alerts daily on the HUGE growth of MQ - and these old sea-hags just sit on here and cackle about DOOM. Boy, do they need a reality check, or what? All is fine in MQ world, and always, always will be! As long as you're willing to work and have a brain, MQ is a great place to work! Oh, yeah, and I'm mgmt - making 6 figures and even remotely interested in sea-hag opinions! That is just soooooooooooooo lame, too! Or maybe I'm the same poster from below who always uses CAPS! That is sooooooooooo funny. Cracked up at that analysis - some of these women have way toooooooo much time on their hands rather than hitting the keyboard! Analysing posts to compare typing styles. Give me a break! What a hoot!
Soooo...what are you saying? That people should post something that is worthy of the board in SM
your estimation? Would you like to have the monitors delete this post about KL and Regis? What is it that you want? Or would YOU like to think of a transcription topic and post it? What's the deal?
I love Directv. The picture is soooo much clearer than cable. sm
Prices in our area are comparable between cable and DirecTV. If you look at their website, you can pull up comparison charts showing exactly which channels are on each service package. You can sort them by number or alphabetically and print them out if necessary.
Problems as in communication?? If so, I'm soooo there. Sick of unanswered emails. No one cares
Thank you ghost! So true! So true! More than one person!

Yer crackin' me up! True, true, true! nm

ROFL!! true, so true! nm
nm
true, true but out of about 90 flicks....1 or 2...nm
true, true - but what you see as arrogance...sm
I think a lot of people go the extreme -
so, if I had to be one way or the other (being a humble extremist myself...*LOL*), I'd rather have too much self-esteem than not enough (been there, done that the first 30 years!!! *L*). And I am a truly humble person, been recognized for just that.....but because of *been there, done that* - and all sorts of therapies (not drug therapies), some end up the other way. Oh well, this was a fun couple of posts - so I thought.
Gave me much to chew on :) Have fun!
True but to say there are no good MTs not true.
asdf
ROFLMAO!!!! so true! so true!
Everybody sees it but her, though! I love it! Thanks for the giggle! ":^)
True!
.
that's so true nm
this is sad, but true
search engines are great, but they pick up all the WRONG information also...so be careful
That may be true for No. Cal. (sm)
in Southern Cal (Orange County), the accounts have become quite scarce and most doctors will not pay over 11 cents per line, that is, if you can find your own accounts at all anymore. They get a lot of solicitations and do not have to pay over 11 cents. There is a lot of EMR taking over out here or all the accounts have been taken by large services.
Sad but true
.
Of course, what you say is all true; however...
my compassion and tolerance dries up pretty quickly when someone expects special treatment (plays the ____ card, if you will) because of situations they are in a result of their own decisions.
This comes across as harsh, but it's a fact of life that decisions do have consequences, and when people try to minimize the consequences of their actions and/or expect other people to pick up their slack, I get mighty testy indeed.
Hey, what I said is true - I do it --
I don't cherrypick. I probably work longer hours (about 9-1/2 to 10 a day)than most but I can get 3000 lines in a day and if I worked longer, say 15-16 hours, I have no doubt I could get 4800 lines.
No one is cutting ANYONE's line count. I just stick with it, man. I keep typing while others are up running around doing their laundry, or tending to a kid, or playing on this board. I just keep typing steadily along.
Hey, man, I'm sorry if you have problems getting more lines but that doesn't mean I or anyone else am taking them from you. They are there. Sit down and type 'em.
And NO, I don't work for this company. Every company has CPs and it is not fair. But just because YOU can't do someone else's line count doesn't mean they didn't get it -- without doing something unfairly.
That's not true (sm)
I confirmed this with my office when I started DQS. I also tested it by importing text into another program and all characters and spaces, including the red headers were counted.
Is this true?
A girl at work today told me that Keanu Reeves is the (late) Christopher Reeves son.
I never heard this before, and so far I am unable to document via the internet. Anyone have any input? Much thanks.
It is true
Dont doubt it, it is true.
true true.

UN-true
Beth, face the fact that we aren't buying your bunch of hooey. Shame on you for trying to sell it to us. Go away. Go troll somewhere else.
SO TRUE
I couldn't believe what was happening. I knew that I was producing much, much more work, but couldn't understand why I was not getting near the lines that I was getting before the switch. Then, one day, I found out. I've hated MQ every since.
It's true
In DQS hit F9 and to a detailed summary of your lines. Then click on a report. Two types of reports will be shown. One is the way the reports shows up after corrections are made and the other is for payroll which is the way you transcribed the report. Choose the payroll one and then scroll to the bottom. It is not hard to figure out. And, YES, you can look at what you have transcribed this way. The head honchos want us to look at our work after it has been corrected so we will know what mistakes not to make any more. I have been transcribing for 23 years and if I leave a blank it is usually because I cannot hear what the dictator is saying. Typically when I recheck a report, the ME or QA person could not figure it out either. Sometimes they leave the blank and sometimes they just take it out and put something odd in its place. Now, how is that right? Everyone should be checking their reports.
It is so true
Where I worked previously, we were able to add a "weighted factor" for difficult dictators and for certain types of reports as some in the office thought those reports took more time to transcribe or were just more difficult - OP and CONSULTS. If you look at the bottom of the payroll report you will see all kinds of figures where items are counted, not counted, possibly could be adjusted in the future, etc. Look at it, and figure out for yourself what the future holds!!!
It is so true
Mtheaded - I think we worked for the same company before. Would you care to e-mail me?
Tis true...
We're swamped!
This is not true!
I am a Quality Assurance specialist with a large national transcription company and I beg to differ with your statement. We send our overflow work to India and let me tell you, their quality is NOT "superior" to the American MT - In fact, we have to do 100% QA on each and every job - your hair would curl at some of the mistakes I have seen just because they don't understand basic English colloquialisms. When all work has to be 100% QA'd by a salaried individual, where is the savings? Unless you send unedited, unproofed work to your clients, in which case I don't think it matters where the good MTs are...you will be out of business soon. Don't dare compare the quality of American and Indian MTs.
