Oh, sorry then. I didn't realize that the only person allowed
Get over yourself. You're no peach either, hon.
DUH! I didn't even realize there was one - thanks! nm
 
Thanks!!! I didn't even realize that I could
do that. Duh! You've made my day!!
OK. I didn't realize that. nm

Didn't even realize JLG was still around! nm

It's gonna take more than one person to change things. Until all American MTs realize the damage
things will keep going downhill. We need to all write letters, inform people, push for legislation that will prevent American patients' protected medical data from being offshored. We need to boycott any MTSOs that offshore and we should not accept peanuts for our skills.
That's what it will take, but with MTs like you who call us whiners for voicing our frustrations, concerns, and opinions and who sit around doing nothing, we will all lose.
Didn't realize name newbie was taken,
just saw post below.
ooh I didn't realize you only enter x1...sm
I'm sorry because I didn't realize until this thread that we can only enter ONE time. I entered a couple of contests over a couple of days. Sorry. Will up my reading comprehension for next year's MT Week.
Thanks again, MTStars, for making it a very special week for all of us!!!
LOL! Didn't realize that. She is a real
Isn't she?
I guess I didn't realize we worked
LOL
I didn't realize you are the thread poster ...
Did you meet the criteria set for the bonus? If you did, seek a legal remedy.
If you didn't, go on about your business.
If you believe you are owed a bonus, and it is not paid when it is supposed to be paid, then they are in arrears to you.
I personally wouldn't give that company a 2nd opportunity to fail to pay. I would quit and seek legal counsel.
Good luck.
sorry, didn't realize there was a time limit. I
personally just read some of the posts.
I didn't realize that until I read the EULA
the other day after talking about this. I've never had 2 computers, so I had no idea. I took it off and bought a new one for the 2nd computer. Thanks for the info.
didn't realize this video was 10 years ago
I also saw a video of Hunter Hays when he was older, and I thought it was so weird that there were two boys with the same name that both played accordian. I missed the part on the younger version that said it was an old video... still almost too cute to be true.
These sites look great, didn't realize how complicated.
Sorry, I got cut off and didn't realize it. I was told it was more of a way to get the work back
I was told it was more of a way to get the work back and forth. Does it actually affect the line counts?
well, excuuuuse me. I didn't realize it had been deleted till after my first post

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize you wanted the fairy tale version of the truth.
In that case, it doesn't matter what school you choose because you'll always be able to get a job. Medical transcription is a bed of roses right now. Offshoring is just a myth and you can make at 25 cpl with any of the MTSOs out there. They are all completely reputable, always honest, and totally respect every MT that they have ever employed. Why, most MTSOs adhere to a strict policy of keeping their MTs happy and helping them be productive, they actually solicit their MTs opinions in an effort to better the profession and working conditions.
Now that you've had your little fantasy, maybe you can face reality! THE MEDICAL TRANSCRIPTION INDUSTRY SUCKS RIGHT NOW. Unless you are an experienced MT who owns your own service or has your own accounts, you absolutely cannot earn a decent living. The only way to eek out a living as an employee or IC of a service, is to chain yourself to your PC and work 12 hours a day or more. Forget you have kids, forget you have a husband, forget that there is a world outside your front door. Just type, type, type until your fingers bleed and then, MAYBE you can pay your bills and buy groceries at the end of the month!
That is reality! That is the way it is and if you don't like it, tough! I'm not someone who sugar coats and coddles. I tell it like it is. Don't waste your money on an MT school. Look into medical coding. Becaise of the EMR, more and more facilities are letting their coders work from home. Not to mention that medical coding has a wonderful advocate in the AHIMA. You have the backing and protecion of a wonderful association that works toward elevating the coding profession and protecting salary ranges. AHIMA commands respect for the coders and the HIM professionals.
I said I didn't want to cause trouble. I'm a nice person.
I don't want trouble here either. Keep it nice.
You'll notice this person didn't sign their name --fishy??? nm

Yes, I realize Doris is a person. Is Doris and

I work for the person. I know. Very excellent person, personally and business-sense.
It is an INSULT to have QA hovering over seasoned MTs who know what they are doing. She trusts her MTs and again if there are questions there is one person, a trainer, who can answer them via phone, e-mail or instant message or you can send the whole report to them if you choose.
Point was is the person willing to make up for the slack of the person who types 1 job when there is
if that is all they WANT to type. Is the person who wants to be a supervisor willing to make up for those people?
You have crap supervisors, editors and mts in the business like you have good ones. Sadly, the really good ones of all of them are few and far between.
When you have a QA person that is picky and another QA person that is very lenient where does that
leave the MTs because some are getting a lenient reviewer and others are getting one that picks at everything. How do you reconcile that issue with the difference in QA mentality. Some people make out well and the other people could be just as good but dont. I wonder about that.
The person MTSO pays is the person who

Well of course we know that now. Back then we didn't because he didn't allow unfettered access.

right we children didn't tattle to the administrator did we. BTW, didn't you think we were &#
because some half-witted idiot said everyone was jealous because some other anonymous poster said they were going to be a doctor. Didn't they call it doctor envy. Oh yeah, that was all about you wasn't it busy-body MT. You with your degree and premed but yet you still post here and acuse others of jealously. I dunno but you and dano seem so close, I can't put my finger on it but I would say you could be computer clones. Jealous indeed. Children indeed. I think you are blowing your covers) dano and busy body MT. This whole "jealously" thing makes me think that you may be one and the same poster.
I didn't go into labor until 2.5 weeks later, so it didn't work. Sorry!...nm

One person's "custom" is another person's
"house arrest". I'd never go to the Middle East because of how they treat women. I don't agree with their laws or "justice" system. For example, the woman who was gang raped as punishment for the actions of her 12-year-old brother, a boy who wasn't even an adult. How's that for a "custom"? Let's not forget bride burning. Burqas.
Besides, foreigners don't follow our "customs" when they come to this country. Half of them don't even bother learning English. Instead, we're expected to pay for healthcare and foodstamps for illegals and print everything in Spanish.
I won't be oppressed or treated as a second class citizen, and I wouldn't treat others like that either. A "custom" is more like putting up a Christmas tree, not being abused based on your gender.
i'm sure it will vary from person to person.
I recently did the same thing and am loving it! The freedom from time clocks, the better company, make losing the benefits well worth it to me. You need to set up a plan to have $ set aside for taxes though. I should have done this years ago!
Wrong person. I'm not the person you were
any money. You have a sucky attitude, a "poor me" attitude. Get off your lazy whiny a$$ and work instead of complaining and you will make money. I have one account at 10.5 cpl, two at 14 cpl and one at 15 cpl. I make a lot of money, even on the 10.5 cpl. But I'm not sitting around whining either. And I didn't whine when I made $6 an hour.
Yes, I realize
that especially consults are often dictated in letter form... just something you have to get used to if you are doing the big 4. I was referring to clinics who send out little notes to referring MDs, family members, insurance companies, patient jobs, etc., not hospital notes.
Yes you did, but you must realize that...
just because you couldn't/didn't succeed doesn't mean others won't do well. As someone else in this thread mentioned, if you couldn't handle indepedent study, you most likely could never handle working independently as an MT. So, in your case, it's probably a blessing that you couldn't cut the program. 
You do realize, do you not, that
this is just a story made up by TV writers? These are not real people. You do know that, don't you? None of it really matters. It's just a STORY.
I realize that
Of course I am blessed. I am blessed to do a job that I love as well! However, I just feel taken advantage of without a raise in five years... I guess I just never understood that. I've never had a "real" job so I guess I'll learn to deal with it.
I realize that..
Yes, they are busy people but come on now, when I cannot understand an allergy because my dictator is smacking through it and does not repeat it, I get a little irritated, especially when she does it almost daily. I just needed to vent this evening.
I'm sure you don't realize how....
insulting it is to those of us who have spent many, many years learning to be an MT when people ask us if they could do it so they can stay home with the kids or maybe earn some extra money. It's like someone asking if it would work for them to be an engineer because they like to look at pretty buildings. For some reason, people who have never done this seem to think all you have to do is sit down and type. As the "nice" poster said, it takes years of training and many more skills than being a fast typist. Most of us are just a little touchy about that attitude that anyone can do it. Even though that my not be your opinion, it came across that way in your question.
I realize this is going nowhere, but saying thanks
for a gift and throwing it away is not being thankful for the gift. Obviously if you were truly thankful for the gift, you wouldn't throw it away. I believe you would only throw a gift away if you felt it was a bad gift, which was the OPs contention in the first place.
Your mother is 100% right in saying you should be grateful for the things you have and receive, but there really is such a thing as a poor choice for a gift.
At least some people realize what they are and SM
don't have to hide behind some facade just to please inferior people.
Superiority is a threat to mediocrity.
Just because someone is not a sheep and does not follow the crowd makes some sheep nervous!
aww...your makin me cry...i realize that tho..
and i thank god everyday that he gave me the gift to type and work hard to be able to be home with them...instead of them being off in some daycare 40+ hours a week...i take it back...
My DH is starting to realize that I just....(sm)
might not stick around for much more of his stuff. I know that won't change him though. I just know it...
Hopefully docs will realize
that their time is better spent seeing more patients than doing data entry..glad that your docs realized this. I had one lone hold-out who refuses to do the clerical entry... but doesn't dictate either... still writes ShortHand notes in charts....Ugh!
Sorry - did not realize I was not allowed to do that. Really, sorry..nm
nm
they don't realize anything...don't care to!
Have really had it with this job.....tired of the whole deal. To think I spent thousands of dollar in schooling, thousands of hours studying, thousands of hours in experience to come to the point where I wish I would have never gotten into this field! Alas and alack, must push on...and the docs just don't give one hoot!
Actually, I did not realize that, but I am glad
xx
Thanks, yes, I do realize I make ...
... mistakes, too. I'm far from perfect! This just goes against my grain, I've stated the reasons in the original post, and I'm not happy at all working there.
They pay $3.50 per report. Some are short procedures and others longer initial evals that take me 20-25 minutes, so it might even out in the end--I've only been doing this a month or so. This is a good part-time job, but I need another job where I feel appreciated and not referred to as the "typist." Someone mentioned spelling out conditions in the contract and that is a good idea.
Thanks to all--
Yes it was due to depression and I realize that....
How cruel you are. I AM not a crack addict - I have NEVER done drugs. I don't drink. I don't even smoke. I do have a child that was involved in this tragedy. Actually I had two - the one that I lost. So I am sorry if I was "weak" for the tragedies that I did go through but I am learning to cope with life. Life is hard and apparently it is sunshiney everyday at your house - and good for you - I don't want to wish anything bad on anyone - even when they have no lack of respect for others. You should watch what you say - things could turn around on you in your happy life in an instant - and then what would you do. Would you be considered lazy, worthless or something else that is an undeserving gesture of who you really are? Maybe someone will say "they are just on crack - they deserve what they are getting. Maybe that just goes to show what laziness will do to you. They don't deserve anything better." I was not asking for sympathy. I was pointing out how fast things CAN turn around when you are off track. Merely using my fall to try to prevent someone else's.
I do thank all of the wonderful remarks prior to the rude post. I am healing but it takes times. I am actually able to get up and not be sad about what I have lost and I have been able to THANK GOD every day for letting me grow through certain things in my life and that I know they happened for a reason. The reason will be a brighter future!
They must realize that better pay often means
And also that what's been going on in the MT biz for the past 10 or so years is morally reprehensible. Good for him! He's one of the FEW good-guys out there.
you need to realize your role, hon
a career you can obtain education for through correspondence schools?? You must be joking if you think you should make more than that. Apply for a promotion if you want more $$$$.
You realize what my next question is, don't you?
Is that company hiring? LOL
Not all companies use VR. Many realize
it's a risk to patient safety as flawed as it is.
