UR Ignorant
Can you read? Did you even read my post? I am not whining, I am trying to explain to you why some people can not leave their jobs. How dare you presume to know me or anything about me? You are starting to sound suspiciously like MQLover, Chucky, Frankie Boy, Zipper, et al....
How ignorant are you?
That has got to be the most ludicrous statement that I have ever heard. Such arrogance coming from where? A fellow American? Who do you think you are making a statement like that? Of course they have a right to earn a living just as we do. Yes they are mostly a very poor people and yes they are nice. But of course, you can't get over yourself for one second now can you? What makes you think that because we are Americans we are SO MUCH BETTER than anyone else in the world? That is just absolutely not true. If you can believe that for one second then you truly are living with rose colored glasses on and I for one feel sorry for you. That is a pathetic existence to have.
You think I am ignorant?!....
I told you how many ILLEGALS I have known on the post below. I am curious to know how many YOU know. Don't tell people they are ignorant until you know the situation. Find out the facts before you speak. I usually do. I can take shelered because I am from a small town. I can even take naive because I have been there before. But I can not and will not take being called IGNORANT by someone who does not even know me OR know my circumstances. I have never BEEN nor am I IGNORANT. That is a very rude thing to say. I have never called anyone that on this board and I haven't seen other people call anyone that either. Have a little respect.
You are very ignorant about depression and antidepressants...SM
The drugs you list are NOT "happy" pills and are NOT addicting. They correct a chemical imbalance in the brain and (hopefully) allow the depressed person to feel somewhat NORMAL again. They are not uppers as you imply.
Unless you've experienced the living hell that is clinical depression and the wonders these medications can do, keep your mouth shut.
sorry but the Bible isn't ignorant, dear.
might be careful of that violent tendency as well, all that hammering on someone's head.
besides, everyone here is entitled to their opinion.

They're ignorant - some hubbies...sm
That's why I don't want another one....did it once - won't do it again. My daughter, by the way, got me the only thing I wanted, a dish garden....and it was in a big turtle with a little baby turtle hanging onto the big (mommy) turtle. I love dish gardens.
The older children will eventually GET it, especially when THEY become parents. *lol*
Life brings with it the ignorant!
Most patients probably don't realize that it is the nurse that handles their care essentially. She/he alerts the doctor with problems, questions that arise, health status, etc. The physician will "round", but it is the nurse that handles the "triage" tasks so to speak. The patients are usually nice to the doctors, but expect the nurses to be their "slaves". Yes, I am also a patient advocate since I've lost both of my parents in an inpatient healthcare setting and both with terminal diseases, but I also believe that a hospital is not a "hotel" where every whimsical desire is granted. To understand why a nurse would say that is quite easy. Transcriptionists sit at desks and look like secretaries. It is only when the Transcriptionist is not there that the triumphs are noticed by others. When I left a hospital setting, I had to train six, I mind you, (6) people to do my job. I was full-time. It is funny how much transcriptionists do that goes unnoticed until they are no longer there to do it. What a smack in the face that hospital got, and it is a shame because it is the patient that will suffer. Unfortunately, we don't usually get the recognition we deserve, but at least we can sleep at night knowing we've contributed. I wonder if the same posters on these boards that complain they are unappreciated are the same ones complaining about having to work the holidays??????? I'm sure I'll get blasted for that one! Oh well, I love my job and most people do that are in the transcription field, hence, they would not do it at all! Wouldn't most of you agree? I don't want to offend anyone, but it is just how I feel! Be safe out there! 
He is the one doing the wrong spelling and we are ignorant???

What an embarrassing, ignorant post
you really ought to be ashamed of your comments but I'm not taking any bets.
Forgive an ignorant question
What's a gross line?
Stupid, I know. I really don't know what that is, though. Thanks.
Name-calling is the first sign of an ignorant person

I love how stating what I believe to be factual is ignorant- this has nothing
customs or what their religious beliefs or morality is. I am just saying it will most likely be nothing like she expects, certainly nothing like the freedom we have here in the U.S., and she should think long and hard about it. Go in with your eyes open. Boy, the things people take "offense" at on this board is unbelieveable.
And name-calling makes one look more ignorant than ever, dear.
There's a name for you too, sweetie, but it's "politically incorrect" to use it. You know what it is though.
Now go read the New York Times and dream of a better world while we all stand in a circle holding hands and singing Koom-by-ah!
Wondering what part of Fanbelt, Idaho this one's from.
can you explain EMR - I know about voice recognition, but I am ignorant
about this. How exactly does it work. I had always assumed it was for lab results and such. Do they do clinic notes, letters, discharge summaries this way?
I think I'm pretty bright and pretty good, too, but
I am not a CMT. I am a medical transcriptionist who enjoys her job very much (most days). I have chosen not to pursue certification simply because I cannot afford to do so. I believe the certification is a nice thing to have, but I don't believe it is necessary for employment or for excellence in my job. If you can afford it, go for it. If you can't, don't feel too bad. You can still take pride in and do a very good job without it. 
WHATEVER. I can't handle ignorant people, which means this conversation is over.
SEE YA!

This is the dawn of my happy day, and I will NOT forget it again! Thanks Michelle!! Well, Dr. Burpinchortle is calling me - he has a STAT report! Really, its been fun, and I would love to do it again! Maybe tomorrow night?? This was really fun! I mean it!! Good night!
What an ignorant reply, not all oriental countires are in Asia, also in North Africa, see below..
Since when is 'oriental' offensive or an embarrassment?
On what planet do you live?
And in the year 2001?
ADP STATEMENT...
I just received notification as well and mine was for $134.00.....just curious as to what its for!
I was a little put off by that statement...
I have a 2-1/2 year old with me during the day and my work does not suffer nor does my child...
Yes, your overall statement is true but
what is so bothersome to so many MTs is that the complaints voiced by so many are about pretty much the same thing. This in turn makes the complaints pretty much valid problems or "injustices" experienced by MTs on an industry-wide basis. It is actually a good thing to have open communication so all may hear the pros and cons of a particular MTSO or of the entire nationwide industry of MT'ing...
I do wish that some MTs could be a little more calm and positive during their negative statements and that some MTs could be a little less offensive in their posts. But again, open communication is one of the things that make a good democracy. Have a beautiful day. Mine started out terrible...got up at 1:15 AM to start transcribing so I could do some other things later in the day but of course the cable and comcast internest were down until just now, 2:50 AM. Guess I'd better hit the keyboard.
stupid statement
That's a very stupid statement. You evidently don't work on the kinds of accounts I do. I send blanks that QA can't get, either. There are various things that affect a report and require blanks besides a dictator's accent.
how exactly is this statement not disrespectful?
you're just plain mean 
I don't know anything, but I found statement
on IPAY, but no direct deposit in my bank ??
Agree with your statement 100%...sm
I'm sure the hurricane victims will be glad to know this. This would be the exact time to come together. I wondered why we would act this way (I know there's an embargo), and my husband said that it might be because we don't trust Fidel Castro (sabatoge).
I appreciate the posts giving updates about the hurricane disaster; I cannot watch the coverage on TV anymore. I broke down this morning when the dogs were dying, and you could hear a dog wailing in the background. It's too much for anyone to bear.
I'm anxiously waiting for Best Friends to let me know if I can be a foster parent for dogs that belong to evacuees.
Thanks again!
My last statement on this subject is the following...sm
As long as there are people who are willing to take cuts in pay, whether by way of bonus or otherwise, there will be pay cuts for the worker, no matter the profession.
I stand behind my statement and there has been
documentation to support it, but this is a free country and I certainly won't condemn anyone for being a member, I just never would and would never recommend it.
I don't advocate any curriculum - I detest Abeka, but the websites I have given are a good place to start for anyone who is just feeling things out. They can ask any questions and get feedback from multiple people, explore various curriculums, buy new or used, find others in their community who homeschool, find support groups, etc. Rainbow Resource has just about everything ever created as far as curriculum, including what is commonly called boxed curriculum like Abeka or BJU where you buy every subject and the TMs, but also allows you to pick and choose. I personally write my own curriculum now, but I used various curriculums and various modalities of homeschooling over the years. There are many different forms of homeschooling too, from a principal approach to the unschooling approach and many others in between. No one curriculum or modality works for everyone and one of the many joys of homeschooling is having the freedom to use whatever works best for your family.
I am not a secular homeschooler, but there are those that are and I would want them to be able to get the support they need and not feel isolated because they don't share the same belief system that I do.
Recorded statement -- think about it before you do it
My attorney has always advised against doing a recorded statement. Sometimes it is the way that the question is asked as to how the answer comes out. Also, we all know that errors can happen in recorded statements and they are not given to you to verify and sign off on, and the tape is erased so what do you do if there is an error in it? So I would not do it again, I did and it did not help my case. Took a lot of attorney time and money to get everything cleared up and then rule in my favor. If it is a black and white of a rear end, might not be a problem, but if there is any question at all, do not do it unless you type up what you want to say and a recorded "statement to them" and do not answer their questions. Just my 2 cents worth
What I don't understand is your statement about (sm)
how his grandparents tried to raise him in the Assembly of God. It sounds as if that wasn't successful. He's just playing you for a fool, trying that "honeymoon" stuff and now wanting to convert you and your children. And you don't change your religion to save your marriage. He is the one who needs to make all of the changes.
90%? I think THAT is an inflated statement!
.
Let me revise that statement...it's still about 45, but it
can't make up it's mind now whether it wants to rain or snow. :-)
I give a statement with every.....sm
I work privately for a bunch of surgeons. I submit a STATEMENT with every job I return but I don't want to be paid off those statements. At the end of the month, I take all those statements and do a MONTHLY BILL that I DO want to get paid on.
Within 10 days, they give me the checks in the next pickup/envelope of work and I deposit only once a month. Makes for a lot less paperwork and problems and I have been doing this for 10 years.
Best of luck to you!!!
re your calm down statement...sm
 Awful presumptive of you to assume I was not calm...just due to a few extra question marks? As an American, I think it's safe to say that plenty here would kill first and ask questions later......I'm not that way.
I happen to be very calm and very rational.....
My statement was not a judgment of anyone
Just simply an observation. As for the sad state of health care cost and coverage, I agree with you. As of right now, my husband, myself, and our baby have no insurance because he just changed jobs and we won't get it until April 1. So why is it cheaper for me to go to the ER with the sniffles just because I have no health insurance? I'm still going to get a bill from them!
Medicaid is a different story. And my post had nothing to do with the indigent or health insurance challenged. And again, no judgment stated or implied.
With a statement like that, hope it never
It is called being black-balled or pushed out because you know too much and do not put up with the crapola that goes on at the office.
In reply to the IC statement given...
Well, that is okay if they don't really care when it comes to being an IC and not following the rules. Let them find someone else, because when you contact the IRS with the evidence that they have been making you work a set schedule like an employee and make you pay taxes as an IC and let them know, the employer will be paying quite well for it.
I take issue with a statement here. sm
"MTSOs know which schools turn out graduates that are ready to hit the ground running..." I think the important point is that MTSOs can't run around the country checking on the program at every college or technical school. Some of these schools turn out excellent students. Unfortunately, since their names aren't known in the industry, no one will give their graduates a chance. I am not an AAMT supporter, but at least the schools they promote have been checked and the MTSO can be sure of getting good employees.
It doesn't really matter if your education is as good as someone else's. When you are only a name applying for a job, never even see your employer face to face, you must have some edge to get you in the door. That is the only thing an MTSO has to choose from.
You can still make it if you don't graduate from the "right school." But it is so much harder, many won't. They may have as much knowledge as anyone else, but often it is just luck that they ever get a start, usually at a local facility. Something to remember when you are shopping for schools.
Disagree with that statement
Meds and therapy are ONE way to deal with depression, but not the ONLY way. Changing your habits is a way (deliberately sitting alone in the dark would depress anyone). Sometimes getting one's financial problems under control takes a huge bite out of depression (its normal to be depressed about bad finances, just as normal as feeling pain when you stub your toe). Talking to other people and getting your problems in perspective is another. Staying very physically busy until you don't have time to focus on your mood would be another - a daily work out can lift a person's mood and become something positive to look forward to. Meds and therapy can be helpful, but if this person doesn't want to go that route, telling them its the ONLY way will only make them feel doomed. There is no only way, there are many ways. I say, try one of the many good suggestions here each day until one of them feels right.
Yes. Ask your employer if they have a statement
NM
Maybe it was this statement that you made.
Maybe you need to look around if you're not doing so well.
I think you're kind of full of yourself and just had to post that you make 14 cpl and that is the entire basis for your post. A potential "helping hand" should ask questions if she planned to drop another account for you.
They can ask for a doctor's statement
stating that you are unable to serve. Be careful.
doctors statement
Sometimes it works and sometimes they just don't care. They are getting very strict.
To throw a statement out such as a
single mother just means, again, nothing more than a person working, same as a divorced mother or father but you know, you never hardly hear that term, do you? People don’t go around saying I am a married mother as they do with I am a single mother. I will say again, to me that denotes just another person in the work force, nothing more, nothing less. Seems like you went off the deep end trying to make something out of the fact that I said 1 person working is just like another. No favoritism for anyone in the work field.
Yes, I made that statement because that's how I felt after
dealing with the public all day long. I'll readily admit that I'm an introverted personality. I get exhausted after being around a lot of people and chaos, which is what my outside the home job was. That's why I chose to isolate myself then. Now, however, after working at home all day, the last thing I want to do is to be isolated in the evenings and on weekends. That's why my social life is better now than it used to be. That's all I was saying. I know there are MTs out there who work home alone all day and spend most of their free time alone, too. That's doesn't have to be the case.
MQ WEIRD IPAY PAY STATEMENT
Did anyone get a paystatement e-mail from ADP for a paycheck that we will be receiving sometime in the next few days? It is for a weird amount, under $75. I called payroll and they told me that I will be getting a letter explaining this check. Were very secretive. DOES ANYONE know ANYTHING???
IPAY statement/check
What office do you work for? Are you an employee or IC? I'm just asking cuz I'm wondering if I might get a check! Don't know what it's for, but I would take it!
How dare you make such a statement.
I beg your pardon..how dare you make such a generalization..How do you know what anyone elses work habits are? I have worked for MQ for nine years and it has been nothing but turmoil, different rules for each regional office, pay cuts, platform changes, new CEOs every few months, rumors about selling the company left and right. In July the SEs were told they were needed and the company was going to make the best job for SEs because they valued us..Now in January, there will be no more SEs and if you do not apply, just like a newbie, to be evaluated, just like a newbie, you will no longer have a job. Please, I am most certainly not lazy, I have worked two full time jobs since 1997. How dare you!
You could always decline the recorded statement and
send them a written statement instead.
I agree with above, Laura's statement
I believe Edix at one time allowed their employees to stop early if they achieved their required line counts for the day. At least that is what I was told. It depends on the company. It's kind of crazy mentality to think you're "stealing" from the company if they require you to be on for 8 hours after you've achieved maximum lines for the day only to find out after the 6th hour there is no work available at all on any accounts! Stealing?? NOT!
