Agree - Tessier Surg GREAT!
I love the Tessier Surgical Word Book, too. One other nice feature is that the new edition will lie flat. Just turn it to the page you need, and it stays right there.
Tessier's Surgical Word book is great for ops

The Sted's Ortho & Rehab Words is probably my most used book and then the Lab Words book. GL! nm

Tessier is not a very good reference book. I have one but
haven't used it in years. I would suggest getting a Stedman's. I believe they just had a new one come out either this year or last year. There is new equipment all the time, so an updated book would save you lots of time from searching on-line.
half.com carries used Sted's books and new ones thru Amazon. Good luck! nm

I just got a really great job typing ortho notes and NO ESL! Yippee!

Gotta get the Stedman's Ortho & Rehab Words. Wheeless encylopedia is a good site to book

Skip it. No one cares. Either you're good on the test or you're not.

You're probably right. Plus we're losing our percentage of good people by .... (sm)
allowing every loser from every 3rd world country on the planet to just stroll on into our country, some legally, most illegally, and take advantage of the social services all us hard working little gerbils pay for by having money taken out of our pay every month. But I don't think we're all lazy. Just the ones on permanent welfare driving around town in brand-new Cadillac Escalades. Saw one just today on the Bayshore Fwy. Brand-new black Escalade with expensive spinner wheels, with 5 or 6 Mexicans in it. Well, who knows - maybe they stole it and it was on its way to a chop-shop. Smart-and-hungry people aren't always hard-working and honest.

We're out here (good MTs) but we're busy! sm
I don't recall ever taking an employment test where I wasn't offered a job. My MTSO does not even look at my work unless I happen to have a question or a blank, which happens maybe once in every 30 or so reports with an ESL. If you find a really good MT, how much training would be involved? Certainly you would save time in the long run once they're trained and you don't have to check all their work.
If you're new, good - if you're not a newbie, not so hot
Would need to know how long you have been an MT. For a newbie, this is a pretty good rate of speed.
However, if you have anything over a couple years of experience, then this is not too hot.
Also, what are the dictators like? Is it a "United Nations" account??
If you ARE capable of 200 lph or more and you can't seem to get it, then the problem has got to be with the platform you are using. In my experience, the platform into which you transcribe can make or break your paycheck - so if the platform stinks, then I hate to tell you, but there is no way you will be able to improve your line rate. I have quit jobs because of awful platforms more than once.
:o) You're welcome. Have a great day! NM

Thank you, I think you're great too! nm
combo MT/MC classes
I am thinking of taking a Medical Transcription class. My sister who is a Physician's Assistant tells me I should do coding instead. Does anyone know anything about the combo classes and whether they are a good idea and if they prepare you enough?
Thanks
You can assign any key combo you want to the
NextField command in the customize keyboard dialog box. You don't need a macro if you are inserting blank fields with Ctrl+F9. You can also assign a shortcut to the previous field command.
If you get this as an employee, you're doing great! nm

Hey all you true ICs out there, you're great!
Loved your posts. The other gal missed my point. I committed myself to 25 hours a week. Was not asked to commit to a certain number of lines, but I am continously asked for more. I do it in the name of "teamwork," which is stressed at this company. I understand their position, but it seems we are always behind. Their fear is that if more people were hired then there's a chance we may run out of work for everyone. Like I said before, I just need a little more flexibility. I don't think as an IC that is too much to expect. I work a regular schedule (9 to 5:30 with 1 to 1-1/2-hour lunch) and rarely take any time off except my two days now (and I was continously asked to work one of those). Getting a vacation is another story. It's time to move on.
Get a TOSHIBA!!! They're great!
Dell I found to be extremely limited, only 1-2 models. Order a XP Toshiba! $899 in Dec got me free shipping, no tax (it was a special), and a good workhorse XP with a DVD/CD multi format RW on a laptop, all the stuff I need without anything I don't.
zero ego, high IQ. awkward combo.
yes it is but i have tried EVERYTHING to no avail. only this combo works for me. nm

They're great - give 'em a try!
Nicest company I've worked for in years - respectful, patient, plenty of work and they appreciate their employees. They're a breath of fresh air.
You're doin' great, newbie! nm

Curves is great if you're just starting out
it becomes very easy very quickly and not much of a challenge, and then it's time to move on to a faster paced, more challenging fitness program.
It's a great start though if you've been out of the fitness world for a long time!

You're welcome. It's a great place to live!
Except in February. Dang it's cold in February.
Seriously though, I don't lock my doors and if I need to find the car keys, they're in the ignition.
The way I see it, if them fools need thaht cah baahd enuff, might's well let 'em go ahead and have it. ![](https://forum.mtstars.com/smileys/cutelaugh.gif)
If it cranks out 500 lines/hr, that's great if you're still getting -
But if you've been bumped down to 3-4 cpl, aren't you still having to put in 7-day weeks at 12-14 hrs/day to make ends meet?
Get Momma's recipe while you're at it. Sounds great! nm
Great idea and they're pretty cheap, too!
Only about $20 or $30 at Wal-Mart. You're one smart cookie!
When I used this combo, we had this problem. IT had to replace Citrix with something else.
They had to do a lot of tweaking, and they were somewhat resistant. They had trouble understanding that letters need to appear immediately ... or sooner.
You can get a combo wireless AND plug in router sm
Linksys makes one and even Walmart has them. I would not go wireless for MT because it is too slow. If you have, say, a wireless laptop that you want to sit on the couch and play with or take to the bedroom or whatever, having a dual router is convenient. You still want to MT on a plug in Ethernet cord.
They are very easy to set up. Linksys has instructions and I have never had a problem. You don't really need to tell you cable company, they aren't going to know or care. Your modem has a set speed and having a router will not increase that speed. Routers make a kind of virtual partition of cable signals. If you have a 112 modem like we can get where I live, you'll find yourself very slowed down. I go up 2 notches and have a 512 speed cable modem and when my kids are here and they all plug into the router to play games over the internet, I can still MT because the signal is pretty fast (well okay until they piggyback another router and hook up 8 computers for a LAN party).
You're very welcome!! I had a great time, too! Took a couple of extra BP pills!!
You have a great weekend!!! MomMT - where did she go?? Too much cookies and milk, maybe? Bye, Guys!!
In MT ads on the net, more and more I see ads for combo positions - MT/front desk, MT/secretary, etc
