I thought replying might be a "boost"...
so they would know it was coming from one of their own ads and not just an unsolicited resume. Well, shoot! I'll be sure to send a followup email to make sure they got it. Thanks!
thanks for replying
thank you
Thanks for replying :)
Thanks for your help, I am going to check into that one. :)
thanks for replying!
I am in my 24th year of transcribing! I'm not alone but at times very frustrated...
thanks for replying - nm

Thanks for replying...
there's good and bad in there, I guess. I have heard that people in different locations will get different speeds (no matter what speed they are paying for), and that makes me a bit nervous. But stability is just as, or even more important, and it sounds like its been really stable for you. So I'm taking heart and keeping my fingers crossed! Thanks! 
Thanks so much for replying
I was beginning to think no one would reply for fear of Big Brother watching!
ideally!..:) Thanks for replying. nm

Thanks for replying. I have noticed that there seem to be a lot of ads ... sm
that mention this. I am thinking of seeing if I can train on it. I currently work in DOS so at least I am used to that part. I usually use ShortCut for Windows but I do have ShortHand also but am not as familiar with it. Just thinking about it - thanks again for your help.
Thanks for replying. May I ask how long it took you
finish your degree?
Thanks for the encouragement also.
I think she was replying to the person who
At least that's my take on it. It's clear you went out of your way to write to that AHDI person and obtain and post her (mis)information-filled reply, and for that I, and everyone else who calls themselves a true AMERICAN MT, thank you! Knowledge is power, and MTs need as much of both as they can possibly get these days.
Kudos for your investigative endeavors!
:)
replying to viv's response on 9/13/08
Oh you think that my grammatical style is bad huh? I just went and reread it and being that I don't feel it was bad. I had to state my point and no it wasn't me! Things just didn't mesh for me and that company! They got a second chance and proved themselves the same! Have you or do you work for this company? Who are you to judge anyways? This board is for posting stuff that most of us posters feel is important for others to see or hear. If I wanted someone like you to comment...I would have asked ok! I am coming along almost a month later because I was working my a** off at a real great place! Sometimes on this posting board thing we don't always type grammatically correct it is not a prerequiste for the posters as I see others not always being grammatically correct! So again I do not know who you are but just yourself let it go cause that last post I made was going to be the last one till I see this! Thanks for caring though! mtinsd
replying to job posting
I am not sure if I am doing this correctly. I have tried to reply to several job postings and I never hear anything back. If they don't list an email in the job posting I click on apply now, is this correct?
I have been an MT for over five years, have experience with many different specialities and ESL dictators, so I think my resume is pretty good.
Frustrated with work. I have lost about 6-7 really good doctors over the last 1-1/2 years to VR. The company I work for says they have no control over who gets switched to VR and are not notified when this happens. I will have a great work load and then all of a sudden nothing. Now it seems like there isn't much work to go around.
Anon, which post are you replying to?
????????????
Thank you so much for replying - that gives me some guidelines to follow

Does anyone actually take the time to read the posts BEFORE replying?
been "mentoring" with them for 9-months.....so Yes, she has already been taken for the $$$, and obviously being shot down saying she is not quite good enough yet to "work" for them. ---Ever now and then someone will come on and say they "work" for them and how great they are, but its a bunch of bunk, look at the archives, 99% negative, total scam all the way. Sorry you got taken.
I was replying to a previous post about Bucky.
One poster said that Kellie made Southerners look stupid and one poster said Bucky might get the boot. I was responding to them in my post.
not the poster you are replying to, but I loved Lorenzo's Oil and Pay

Thanks for replying. I'll check out 2003.

Apparently replying to you. Thats the problem with MTs today.
NOBODY looks over their stuff. The new MTs are taught to hurry, hurry, type, type so you can make lines. When I was learning MT, not at an MT school but in college with my other medical records classes, THEY TAUGHT ACCURACY.
You MTs today dont have a lick of pride in your work, else there would be no mistakes like food instead of foot.
typo? that is a flipping copout.
I thought so. Thanks.:)

I thought so too
Ya know, I thought so too but I think it is because his hair cut and facial makeup and eye brows are so severe..If he grew a longer beard, some side burns and longer hair, I dont think it would look that bad..However, he looks like my ex..sigh..My ex was a Latino as Dave Navarro is and has the same face..When I first saw Dave Navarro..I said to everyone, My gosh, he looks like John and they agreed..Carmen (dont know if I like her or not) and Dave sure make a good looking couple, though.
I thought it was just me! Thank God I'm

well, one would have thought it sure
would have gotten some press, for sure. But on the other hand, the story doesn't have the same 'newsworthy' features (from the press standpoint), ie, hope for a happy outcome, being a school-sponsored trip, a top student with the full scholarship waiting, the mystery of higher-ups possibly helping to hide the facts, etc etc.
Its a very very tragic thing, to have a child go missing and especially with the horrible outcome you mentioned.
If the news reported (which they can't) EVERYTHING that went on, we'd probably be afraid to wake up in the morning.
I thought of that too.
I thought about the brown recluse and I think that is why I was nervous and there are so many bites at one time. We have huge spiders here. I hope it isn't a recluse. The symptoms are similar. One scar looks pretty bad. I will watch it. Thanks for responding.:)
YES< YES, I thought it was just me!
That's what I thought...or at least that is what
the signed contract states.
Thank you for clearing that up.
Happens to me, too, but I always thought it was
when supe was pushing jobs into individual que's to improve TAT, since it is always at the end of a job that it happens -- just before another job will download to me.
Yes, it does happen. Not equipment problem, but possibly could be a connection problem -- slow connection causing this, too ????
Here is a thought..
Find MTs in your area that work at home with kids...maybe doing a kid swapping thing would help everyone. Create a MT Mommy group LOL.
I thought I won...
Thought of something else!
Do you e-mail or send in mail, or both? I have always gotten my MT jobs by e-mail.
There are so many hurdles, especially equipment requirements. It seems you have everything right on track, you just need your break!
Another thing I thought of; do you look at other MT websites with job boards? I go to other MT websites when there's nothing new at my favorite one.
Good luck, and keep us posted!
I had thought of this also
In fact, there was just a few hours ago there was a press conference on the news. The Dept of Health and Human Services was giving a briefing and said that many medical volunteers are needed, including nurses, physicians, EMTs, etc. He said on the HHS website there was a link for volunteers to register where they ask questions as to your capabilities, etc. I had wondered if MTs would be needed when I was watching this. I do not remember the specific website, but I'm sure it can be found by Googling the Dept of Health and Human Services. God Bless you for volunteering. 
That's what I thought.
That's what I wanted to do, was mark it so they at least would see it, but nooooooo....they just leg it go!!! And these nationals wonder why they lose accounts!
Thanks! I never even thought much about it until...
JK mentioned it.
I second that thought!

I thought so
you are working for Frankie Boy or are you Frankie Boy.
Where is Chucky zipper or is Chucky Frankie Boy too?
I thought of that too.

Thanks for the thought...nm

I have thought about this, too.
I love Oprah - and I find myself running back and forth between commercials. I have been thinking of putting a small tv in my office. What do you all think?
Have yo thought about
applying for a clerical job in your local hospital or a doctor's office? Good luck to you!
I had not even thought about that. Thank you!

Just a thought - sm
Have you noticed a pattern to when it kicks you out, such as immediately after you send an e-mail? This happened to me, there was a setting in my Outlook Express that made it disconnect every time I sent an e-mail. It was easily fixed.
Just a thought ...
try looking here:

Do seek help, though. Like several posters below stated, this could be very serious.
Thanks... that's what I thought
Just a thought....
Having a parent die isn't exactly easy on a child. Could some of their problems be that they lost their mother, who was obviously a huge part of their lives, rather than the homeschooling? I know someone who lost his mother when he was in grade school. He had severe social problems after that, and he wasn't homeschooled.
I just thought
I just thought maybe since things will be slow they would ask for volunteers first, I work for QT, does anyone else know their policy?
I know what you mean, actually. I thought it was just me.
Jane Fonda is like this a bit. Maybe has to do with their relationship with their father. I am no perfect person character-wise that is for sure but there aren't cameras and paparazzi following me around (thank GOD).
I never thought of it that way.
Eleanor Roosevelt and Gandhi were INFJ, too. Oh, well. I wound up quitting both of those jobs because I hated the way they were treating people. I'm better off for it. Principles are worth more to me than paychecks. LOL Thanks for the clarification. I like Myers-Briggs now that I know it's about understanding personality instead of judging someone's character.
Hey, I have often thought if I were in your
I would be able to make so much money! I mean, if you get bored what do ya do - work! And quiet all the time! I'm sure it can get lonely at times but man, some days I dream of having a house (or even an apartment) of my own and being able to eat what I want when I want, no one to cook for, when I clean it stays clean. I could rent movies and watch them all day, fall asleep at 5:00 p.m., wake up at 1:00 a.m. and type till I was tired, etc. etc. I know I'm thinking of only the advantages and not disadvantages but man, sometimes it sounds good!
If you think WE had it bad, just thought of this. . .
My mom and another "girl" were typists for the old pipeline company back in the 1950's. They had to type financial reports (all numbers) on manual typewriters. There was no White Out back then and erasing was not allowed. If you got something wrong, you had to start over.
They finally finished the reports and stacked them up on the windowsill. Cold windy day and the boss comes in and opens the window. My mom and the other girl sat down and cried and then started over again.
My mom always said she thought the boss might have opened the window on purpose, but that's as far as she ever went with it. Now people would say, "My boss was such a . . . "
No, it is you act on that thought. nm
