Make sure your forehead is level with the top of your
monitor. You should not be looking up or down, just straight on. And try to relax your shoulders. Do not lean forward. Practice simple yoga stretches to elongate your muscles. Transcribing is like playing a sport. You use muscles and they must be stretched to stay limber.

Also, you can increase the size of your font on your screen to avoid having to lean in to see the screen. Try running the Accessibility Wizard under Programs.
Please use Word and Technical boards appropriately. (NM)

MTSO needs to staff appropriately, not IC take care of staffing issues.

Why should the IC give up her staffing solutions to the MTSO?  The IC only makes may be 9 cpl if she's lucky, and the MTSO probably makes 13-15 cpl.  I think my friends would rather make the 13-15 cpl to keep the account happy, than make only 9 cpl and make the MTSO happy.  The MTSO is wrong to take an account they can't staff properly, and then in turn blame the typist for TAT, etc.  It is just not fair!  Lowering the boom on the typist is my big concern, not so much "client stealing".  "Client stealing" has been around longer than we think it has.  The MTSO had to begin the "stealing" process from the get go, and then in turn cannot staff.  It all boils down to staffing.  I say, hire per diem employees.  Most transcriptionists are able to pick up a little extra now and again to accomodate the MTSO in a "tough spot", but this work should be paid a little extra as an incentive.  Tit for tat, though, in all fairness!
