Still inappropriate whomever he was talking to

Posted By: zt on 2005-12-02
In Reply to: Oh, it wasn't in his dictation, it was an aside to his PA sm - gotta laugh

Comments were still inappropriate for someone to overhear on the phone.  Suppose it was the woman whom he examined listening on the phone while he was discussing her size?  That is one thing the hospitals I have worked at tell you first up, do not ever discuss a patient in the hallways, elevators, offices because family members or the patient himself/herself could be nearby.

whomever versus whoever?
Whomever: You are him.

Whoever: You are he.

Do you get it now? Texas? That explains it.
I always ask via e-mail to whomever I work the most with at the office

it is inappropriate.
and besides, why would he take a chance, in this day and atmosphere, on such things causing suspicion about his intent?
But isn't that a little inappropriate?

inappropriate stepfather
I'm an adult, in my mid 30s, and have had a stepfather for the past 15 years.  Lately, he and my mother are at each other's throats, extremely unhappy, but he is too old to leave, in his 70s.  Ive never been close to my mother but go over there weekly or a couple times a week to talk or share a meal.  For the past few months, my stepfather has made me uncomfortable with sexual comments, looking at me in a sexual way, and suddenly wanting to hug me and will not let me leave without a hug, which he has never done before.  Its gotten so bad, I do not want to go over there anymore.  I don't want to say anything and cause a big stink because its all so awkward.  I don't know if he's getting senile or what.  He also takes constant pictures of me whenever i'm over there.  I've stopped going over there and I dread it, but I feel guilty.  Am I blowing this out of proportion?  Its changed our relationship.  I have talked to another family member about it too and she thinks I should tell him to stop, but I'd be extremely embarrassed.  I just dont want to be around that environment, but I dont want to completely cut off ties to my mother, even though we are not all that close anyway, she's my mom. 
mL is inappropriate for solid
measurements for tissue specimens, etc., so either cc or cubic centimeters is appropriate. Ask any pathologist.
re: inappropriate stepfather

Some of you remember about this topic a few months back, and you all supported me so well, that I decided to post again on the subject.  I hope admin does not remove this, I know it should be in the depression forum, but no one goes there and you all were so nice before so...


I had told you about his advances, the comments, the suddenly wanting to hug, and the inappropriate looks.  I have been wearing all but a potato sack, messy hair and no makeup and even let myself not smell so good, to keep him away, but nothing works.  I still want a relationship with my mother, and she does not like to go out, so i'm stuck going over there all the time.  Ive even gotten downright rude to him, do not look at him or direct comments anymore, and he has gotten so daring as to now touch me inappropriately. 


Last night we went to dinner, I didn't want him to go, but of course its my mother's husband so he's there.  I gave him the cold shoulder the whole night, ignored his flirting and just talked to my mother.  Towards the end of the night, when I was leaving their house, I hug my mother and he was standing right there waiting for his.  I am extremely uncomfortable with this, so I just say bye.  My mother got furious and wrote me an email as to why i've become so cold towards him.


Well, with me holding all this inside for so long, (besides telling one person who has a big mouth and really did not help me out much at all), I blurted out that I want nothing to do with this family, I will not be coming around anymore.  There is no WAY I can tell her why.  So i've just made the decision to stay away from the family, in order to spare her embarrassment.  I think it's the right decision.  I'm going to be extremely lonely, because it couldnt come at a worse time with the holidays coming, but I have no other choice. 


This whole thing is humiliating.  I can't believe she does not see him doing these things, but she does tend to fall into denial to avoid things.  But with her accusing me of being "cold"...well, thats the last straw.  I need to stay away, and I don't want the entire family to know about this around this time, even though i'm ready to explode.  Writing here has helped me somewhat.  I wonder if i'm making the right decision.  My family adores this guy, his own family won't have anything to do with him.  I feel like i'm all over the place, but i'm just so confused and sick.  Wonder if i'm doing the right thing by removing myself and keeping this under wraps at least for the holidays?  The only person who is miserable is me, and i'd rather it that way than the embarrassment of this all coming to light.  Very lost. 


Thank you guys for hearing me out.  Again, admin sorry about the off topic but I posted it here before and it really helped. 


Inappropriate stepfather
What does your husband and other family members say about his behavior?  There is a possibility that his estrangement from his own children could have to do with a bitter divorce rather than inappropriate behavior.  You say the rest of your family adores him.  Why not talk to them?  If he is being inappropriate with you, he is probably being inappropriate with other female family members. I doubt he'd just single you out, especially with your doing your best to appear unattractive.   If you are not married, is it possible that there is a twinge of jealousy that your mom has a husband and you don't and you are imaging this? Not meant to be hateful, just wondering why you would allow this to continue.
inappropriate stepfather

I was molested by my stepfather from the ages of 8 to 12.  I ended up telling my mom when I was in my 30's.  She was horrified that she had not known what was going on, but did nothing.  Life went on with me trying to stay away from my stepfather and never letting him be alone with my two daughters.  Then one day I was at my mother's alone with my youngest daughter and he was there.  I was in the other room, working for my mom that day, and my daughter came in and asked me to come sit in the living room.  She laid down and went to sleep.  I thought she must be getting sick.  The next day she said she had something to tell me and my heart sank.  I knew before she said the words.  He had began to touch her inappropriately and that is when she came and got me.  I took her to the doctor I worked for and the police were called.  I also went and confronted him at his job.  Funny thing he was fired the next day for "some reason."  He was arrested, after running for a while, and ended up pleading guilty in court.  My daughter was 10.  I lost my mom and sister over it, they thought I over reacted, but my daughter had the reward of knowing she stopped this man from molesting others.  Not long afterward he developed lung cancer that very quickly metastasized to his brain and he died on a Christmas Eve.  You have to tell to protect others.  I live with guilt daily because I never told when I was young.  Stop it now before he does this to others, if he is not already.


Inappropriate stepfather
My heart goes out to you in this terrible situation. BUT, to not tell you mother the absolute truth is to go along with, be involved with, and perpetuate the environment that this degenerate soul buries himself in to continue hisr sickness. You must see how this sick man has placed himself in a family that will not speak out. They do this because they attach themselves to a person or persons in a family that keep quiet about inappropriate sexual behavior. Your mother is a victim too but until she has this situation blatantly shown to her, she will continue to go on protecting him. She may even go on to protect him once she is confronted also. That is a chance you will have to take. But that is not your problem at that point. You know this is an unhealthy situation and unlike your mother and stepfather, YOU know the difference. Your uncomfortableness is your ticket out of the situation, painful as it is, you do know what good mental health is. This situation is telling you that. It is sad, but sexual inappropriateness can run in generations of families simply because it is not brought out in the open and the chain broken. Just think that some other innocent female, child, could also be put in harm's way because this sick man is allowed to by not exposing his illness. I feel your pain about your concern for your relationship with your mother and what will happen, but you are whole and have no reason to dress entirely covered up. You have a RIGHT to be yourself and not go out of your way to minimize this man's illness. By doing so you are being part of this dysfunction. Be strong, seek professional guidance or a support group. You lose nothing. It is only a matter of time before your mother breaks out of this suppression. Chances are like so many other women, deep down inside she probably has some suspicions that something is not total right with this man. The hard part is hoping your mother changes.
Drs comments were inappropriate, IMHO
Dont you think his comments are a little inappropriate?  To be dictating and saying that?  He can put the information in a research paper he is writing but to state it while dictating?
Totally inappropriate. You should relate this to
She should remove it or the company should remove her.

A lot of people think it is inappropriate to ask the salary of others...
probably why no one is answering your question...
Wait a minute, I'm not just talking about the boards, I'm talking about the news article.

Specifically,


"JLG has a contract with Arrendale Associates/ A+Network/CBay Scribe, which the group says is in India.
A letter from JLG to Barbara Dingman, chief compliance officer and director of health information management, says all medical transcriptionists assigned to the Medical Center Hospital account live in the U.S. and all work is done in America."


But yet they do business with Arrendale/A+/CBay, what am I missing here?


I'm talking about MT school, not K-12, which is where I learned most of what you are talking abou

I know exactly what you are talking about.
There are a lot of people like you are talking about living in trailer parks.  However, there are trailer parks around where I live that are nothing like what you are talking about.  My point is that you should not lump everyone who lives in low-income housing together and label them as trash.  A lot of people who live in these nice neighborhoods with all their wealth, got that wealth dishonestly.  They may not be underachievers, but these people are criminals, no matter where they live.  They may be your neighbor.  It would be the same thing if everyone thought if you were wealthy, then you had to be a crook in order to get that way.  The way things are going there are going to be a lot more poor people in this country, maybe even you.  I certainly do not wish you any misfortune, but you may not always be able to afford to live in those nice neighborhoods with the high property values.  We can argue all day about it and not get any further.  The fact remains that there are stigmas regarding all kinds of things.  Even if it is partly based on facts, it still boils down to prejudice. 
I think you are talking about something all together

know what you are talking about first
For your information, I had already submitted my test.  I was not "cheating" as you put it.  I didn't know what the word was and could not find it through my own research so I asked.  I am SURE that asking for assistance AFTER the test had already been submitted is NOT cheating, but trying to actually LEARN what the word was that I DID NOT UNDERSTAND.  If I had thought for a second that I needed to clarify to YOU the reasoning behind my request I most certainly would have asked you for permission first.  My goodness.
Actually she does know what she's talking about. I

What in the world is your problem?

This is exactly what I am talking about

that is how I feel when I get up from working.  I am always moaning about my knees, my wrists, my forearms, my sciatic nerve, back, neck, on and on.  I am 33 and feel like I am falling apart and I know it is because of my posture.   


What are you talking about?
Why would you assume that I have some sinister reason for this request.  It was a simple request for people who might be interested.  I posted my real name and my real email address.  I am just another MT trying to help someone out with a class they are taking.  You have a problem.
THAT is what I have been talking about all day.
You can't even discuss a difference of opinion without insulting someone.
See, that's what I'm talking about!
When I worked at the hospital I made more than my boss! I've seen Ph.D. jobs offering what I used to make 15 years ago! I think we are stuck!
You are talking about...

What are you talking about?
You are only allowed to work 8 hours per day. How is it that they 'worked your fingers to the bone'?  The required line count is average. 
I am not sure what exactly you are talking about - sm
but I tried what you said you did and my Smartype would no longer work. If you don't want to view the grey line or the choice menu of Smartype I think you can set it not to do that -- see Smartline properties and Smartlist properties under the "Stedman's" column. If you have more than 1 line coming up than I have no idea...I only have 1 and have never had that problem. Something is not geling right on your computer for some reason. --hope you figure it out.
please know who you are talking to
that was not my post.  you are very confused. 
Have you tried talking to him about this? (sm)
Sometimes they don't get it unless it is pointed out to them. See if there are other ways he can help besides turning on a TV, etc. Tell him you'd love to "love" him at night but you're too tired...that you don't get to sleep in until 9:30 and that maybe if he helped out a little, you two could spend some special time together. No, that's not a bribe or blackmail, it's just reality. If one person is forced to do a lot of the work while the other one lazes around, there is going to be a difference in how tired one is at night.


If you are talking about ME
you have it wrong. I didn't say MT's don't have brains. BUT if you think what I said is wrong then I wonder if you do. What I said was that some MT's need their hand held for every little thing. And that is TRUE. Not all, some. That is evident from the messages I get from my PS and it is also evident from posts on these boards. Geez.
That's exactly what I'm talking about

My grandfather started in the mines when he was 8.  That's just the way it was, everybody worked or nobody ate.   He loaded a coal with a shovel and got a quarter for every ton.  He worked his way up slowly throughout all his years and went on to become an electrician and a carpenter.  By the time he retired, he actually had enough income to relax and take it easy for once.  It would take him most of the morning to read through the newspaper, but he could do it.  He hunted and fished and had an enormous garden, so we were never starving and we didn't go to the grocery store except for milk.  My grandmother made bread and canned and such.  Nobody even told me I had to 1) go to school or 2) stay in school, but I was the first in a very very long line to go to college, but that wasn't until I was 35.  My family worked and they worked hard.   Our neighbors were black and the children and I grew up like family.  Their mother never worked nor did their grandparents who raised them.  My grandfather would give them fish, game meat, and stuff out of the garden in exchange for little chores such as helping out with the garden and such.   I didn't know how they lived since I didn't know about welfare.    There were 4 of them, one daughter ended up in trouble for drugs, another married a man of another race and left, the two sons are in another state and heavily involved in drugs now. I talk to their mother because she was like a family member to me and she doesn't understand why they turned out the way they did.


Under this administration, unemployment has been down in record numbers and this is reported on the news all the time.  The tax cuts haven't been just for the rich, they have helped us and we certainly aren't well off by any means.  I tease my kids that if I could work 3 jobs we could be upper lower almost middle class.  There were times I didn't have 20.00 to send my son in college to do laundry, but he made it through with every honor you can possibly get and the scholarships and now he is studying in another country.   HE did that on his own.  There is an American from Seattle in the next apartment who made the comment to him he's probably there just to lay back and he bets his jag is at home in the garage waiting for him and he told him "I am here because I earned it. I do not have a jag nor a car of any kind, nor do I have a bicycle."  This other student said my son should be "shot" because he has an American flag on his wall.    I can't imagine anyone hating this country like that and where in the world did they learn that?  School for one.  I love my country. I'm not always proud of what goes on here but there's certainly not another place on earth I'd rather live and have my children live.

Ever hear of Jessica Lunsford, dressed in a nightgown and tucked into bed, and then gone. What about Polly Klaas? Having a sleepover, dressed for bed, and then gone, with only her overnight guest as a witness.

There are a lot of sickos out there, and to add insult to injury, most are messed up on alcohol and other drugs. This scenario is far too common in this country, and fast becoming more so.

People need to WAKE UP!!!
There is definitely a need for what you are talking about.
I have been in this field for under a year now, so I am considered a newbie. I got VERY lucky in that a friend of a friend needed help with her accounts and now I work part-time for her. But I know there are many others of us out there who are having trouble getting started.

I have no idea how you would go about your idea, however. I just know that it is needed and would be greatly appreciated. Please keep us posted on what you decide to do!
Thank God! An MT who actually knows what she's talking about! Thanks, ALN
you've restored my faith in my fellow MTs!
are you talking about your
favorites LIST or your links toolbar that has your favorites on it? are you on IE and if so what version?
I think you are talking how you should be 15 to
realize you CAN make money in this business, but 15 to 18 cpl to start is not going to happen.  I think some of you are spending a lot of time complaining instead of becoming better MTs so you can have the money you are complaining you don't have.  And I think the ones who work to be the best they can and then work on getting their own accounts are going to make the money and in five years some of you will still be complaining and stuck right where you are now.  If MT isn't working for you, then something is wrong and maybe it's not the job for you.  I've made more money doing MT than I ever in my wildest dreams thought I could make.  And I did it without complaining.

Michael Moore had nothing to do with the facts mentioned in my post. The video of the woman dying on the ER floor was shown on a news broadcast. I have yet to see any documentary film written by, produced by, directed by, narrated by, or starring Michael Moore.

I also NEVER said that it was the norm, just included the WHO healthcare rankings by country.
I don't think this is what the OP was talking about
there is a company advertising that they pay by the virtual line...so how is a virtual line different than 65 characters with spaces?
