Thanks, but I suspect

In Reply to: I absolutely love GearPlayer 4, the newest version. It plays all files - tt
that since the company I now work for has their own Voice Monitor I doubt I would be able to transfer reports to a system like Gear Player.

I would suspect...
...that a certain CEO is hoping Brandi won't start telling us about the old days in detail. Then again, maybe he would! Dang, I'm still laughing over one story in particular. He was sure a gas at the parties I attended at WebMedX!
Also, I suspect the pay isn't all that SM
great (remember, the amount the client is paying is there), if about 1/2 goes to the service then that leaves a little less than 9 cpl. It's okay money, but I also think this is IC work and if so, it's not that great a deal.
I don't know for a fact the service is taking 1/2; I am assuming that--they have overhead to pay for.
Yes, you have ADD, but I suspect you know that.
Actually, probably ADHD. I should know - I have it as well! Nice meeting you! As for the class, it has to be the same company that I suffered and friznazzled in for all of 4 hours, with a raging fever, droning in and out of consciousness - not from the fever, but from the Barbie on my end. Sounded like Mrs. Rogers on speed. And she kept attempting comedy - to which all my dutiful bunny classmates laughed and laughed. Except... they did so by clicking a LAUGH icon, or they would hit the CLAP icon. I was so looking for the VOMIT icon, but, alas, there was none. I couldn't take it, and after 4 hours, I hit the EXIT DOOR icon really quickly, heard it slam shut, saw my name disappear, and that was the end of my career at THAT company. Ended before it started. Took me a LONG TIME to saw off the ball and chain that they had included in with the computer - the one to chain myself to the desk. I sawed it off, signed back on and hit the CLAPPING icon. I was free...Do you think I'd be on their infamous REHIRE list??
I suspect you are the honest one
I was skeptical above when I read the responses to "How much have you made so far with the year half over". Awfully amazing how much money they claim (maybe overestimate) they make -- equivalent of full-time income with how much time they take off for their kids or "life". There was an allusion to the truth about the MT who said she is a second paycheck to her husband MBA. But I suspect you are the honest one, stating that it isn't the money. It certainly isn't the virtually non-existent benefits.
Since you have been there that long, I would suspect that... sm
you have power from your longevity that they feel threatened by. The administrator may feel glad that you are leaving so they can finally gain more personal control.
This does not mean you should feel bad, though. Change is good, so you have everything to gain, but so do they. I would not begrudge them the feeling, though. I always try to wish the best for those that I leave behind.
Thanks again for the link. I suspect I will be using-sm
this in the near future, because now I want to make it capitalize afer a ":" and I find that it will not capitalize after a number, such as in L1. I really appreciate your help. All of this little stuff can really slow down production, not to mention make you want to pull your hair out. :^)
thanks so much!
$13/hr is ridiculously low. I suspect SM
it's some program where they get you cheaply, sharpen your skills by giving feedback on your work (mentoring) and then turn you loose. Industry standard is around 150 lines per hour. If you did that, that's a little over 8.5 cpl. BUT if you type 175 lines an hour for $13/hr, you are typing for a little under 7.5 cpl. As you get better and more used to the dictators under this "training program," you will actually be working for less money, see?
If you suspect something dangerous, then
for heaven's sake go and visit a doctor.
Why do you suspect a pulmonary embolism? I dounbt tht you wiklk be able to cough it up. Are you producing some blood when coughing?
It might just be some mucus or phlegm that you cannot lodged in you lungs.
Does your cough produce blood?
Here are the symptoms tht indicate a pulmonary embolism
(blood clot in the lungs):
Google:
'Pulmonary embolism symptoms can vary greatly, depending on how much of your lung is involved, the size of the clot and your overall health — especially the presence or absence of underlying lung disease or heart disease.
Common signs and symptoms include:
Sudden shortness of breath, either when you're active or at rest.
Chest pain that often mimics a heart attack. The pain can occur anywhere in your chest and may radiate to your shoulder, arm, neck or jaw. It may be sharp and stabbing or aching and dull and may become worse when you breathe deeply (pleurisy), cough, eat, bend or stoop. The pain will get worse with exertion but won't go away when you rest.
A cough that produces bloody or blood-streaked sputum.
Rapid heartbeat (tachycardia).
Other signs and symptoms that can occur with pulmonary embolism include:
Wheezing
Leg swelling
Clammy or bluish-colored skin
Excessive sweating
Anxiety
Weak pulse
Lightheadedness or fainting (syncope)
Fever'
If you do not have these symptoms, take an aspirin, drink hot tea with lemon juice and honey, you might just have a cold.
Are you married? Do you have any reason to suspect
that your spouse might be monitoring your activity on the Internet?

This site has a scanner that will detect it. Spyware Doctor.
http://www.pctools.com/spyware-doctor/?ref=google_th
Run the scanner to see if the keylogger is installed on your computer or your work server. If nothing else, you don't want anyone getting your personal information or the medical records you are typing.
I am not sure if Lavasoft's AdAware or Spybot Search and Destroy will remove this keylogger, but both are free to download.
Just found out that the suspect's ex wife--sm
is providing an alibi for him, saying that he was with her in Alabama at the time of JonBenets death and that he only knew certain things about the case because he did alot of research on it, as well as another case in California. Why would he confess to it, if he did not do it? and why would she, the ex, defend him?
Suspect - Jon Benet Case
From what I saw on the news, he confessed to things that the public was never told about and that only the police knew. Also, I was happy to hear that before Patsy Ramsey died she actually knew this person was a suspect so she could also find some peace.
I suspect that with the name change they will also lose a lot
l
I suspect we will see stories like these more and more on both sides soon

When VR gets worse over time, I suspect it has to do with
new MTs, Indian MTs, and those MTs who don't really give a crap about "training" VR. When it's not "trained" correctly, it just gets worse. IMO, there's no way to uniformly constantly train it, or for the physicians to ever put forth the proper effort needed to make VR work. It's a losing battle & the only purpose it's serving right now is to severely cut our pay & decrease patient safety. VR needs to go away.
I suspect it's another newbie doing a test tape to get a job
"D-dimer"
"Parenchyma"
"Acidosis"
Any first year terminology student wouldn't have to ask about these elementary MT words. It's a cheater trying to pass a test she is in no way qualified to be taking.
Call your insurance co and tell them what you suspect..its up to them to verify.

I suspect employers are being forced to care. SM
Since it's a new platform, it's a new problem that probably a lot of companies are just waking up to. My sympathies for people who find themselves effectively "forced" to use it as it apparently is now.
With serious compatibility issues with common brands of the Expanders that have become vital to so many of us, at this point I would not apply to a company using it, and I suspect few other good experienced transcriptionists reading about it would either. This seems such a grave flaw that it will have to be repaired, or this platform will end up a dead end used by only a few institutions.
How about contacting the company that developed the platform directly for answers and fixes? Also the developer of your own expander, who must be well aware of the issues Chartscript raises for them. The ShortHand tech guy (not my own MTSO techs!) fixed me up promptly when I was put on eScription and developed glitches. Best wishes with this.
I suspect that unless you post like-minded sanitized goodie goodie posts,
