That's a possibility. sm
But the ones I was referring to in my first post were questions from people already hired and were posted on their company board. I couldn't believe how many that were asking the simplest questions that should have been learned in school or at least after a few months on a previous job. How do they get hired without experience? But maybe it's like you say, they lie on the interview and cheat on the employment test. Even on some of the other word boards there are a lot of questions about things that should already be known if hired.
I think there is also the possibility...
of a Rodney King riot that will make said riot look like a picnic. I pray so much I'm wrong.
Job Possibility
I have possible job opportunity as an MT working for a hospital, at-home, $15.64/hour, with incentive pay over 70 minutes of dictation, weighted, so $1.10 for each report after the 70 minutes. Does this make sense? I didn't want to sound like a dummy when talking with these folks. Would someone please explain? For hard dictation (YIKES ESLs!), it is 150 weighted. Is this a good deal or not? About how many minutes is 70? 
Job Possibility
This job is at Memorial Medical Center in Modesto, California. Thanks for the information. 
job possibility
-take it quick
Job Possibility
Thanks to everyone for the responses. This hospital has 2 openings (Memorial Medical Center, Modesto, CA). One is for a "lead MT," which, I'm sure, pays more. Good luck to ya. 
This opens up the possibility of
identify theft. What if they do not keep the info in a secure location. Employees could get access to it. What if somebody hacked into their system. How secure are their files and system. I don't truse anybody.I would quit before I gave this information to anybody. You could very easily have credit cards opened in your name, etc.
Extra work possibility
Just wanted to post something that might help those of you looking for work... while I realize this is a medical transcription board, with our work being outsourced more and more each day, we have to do what we have to do to earn a paycheck.
After talking with a police officer and hearing how many hours they spend doing written reports of calls/incidents, I mentioned that it was too bad they could not dictate their reports and have them transcribed. He really liked the idea and so did I as I thought more about it. I finally scheduled an appointment with the Chief of Police and made a proposal to him. I had to do some research -- average pay per hour of a police officer x hours per day spent writing reports, etc, -- but that was not too difficult to get.
To make a long story short -- he tried this with a couple of his officers on their lengthy and very detailed reports.
Because it allows more time for actually being a police officer instead of being tied up writing illegible reports by hand, they love the idea.
I submitted my bid, which was approved, and the contract was signed. There is never a dull moment with this!
Joint tenderness is another possibility.

another possibility is it got lost in the shuffle
With all the names for the bride to keep track of (half of them being all new to her) , its very possible that your name just got lost in the shuffle. I've seen it happen many times where a thank you card got lost, or an invitation was never sent simply due to an oversight. As a recent bride, I can say that I started writing my thanks-you's the moment we got back from our honeymoon and I was so nervous that I may have accidentally missed someone when writing 150+ thank you's, it happens sometimes. My cousin didn't get their thank you's sent out until nearly a year after their wedding, it took me a moment to figure out what they were thanking me for because it had been so long! lol
Anyway, moral of the story is, give it sometime. She may still be working on writing her thank you's. If you find out that other people have already received theirs, ask the bride's mother (who is your friend if I read your post correctly), it may have just gotten lost in the shuffle. I'm sure the bride would want to know that you did not receive your thank you card so that she could apologize & correct the oversight, I know if it were me, I would want to know if one of my guests did not receive theirs!
A possibility. You might want to try some of the SUM tapes on various specialties, you to sm
bone up/refresh on them. I have them, if you are interested.
you left out the possibility of information
being used for identity theft - Americans can understand this and might be a little more against the idea of their records being used for that. I have one doc who copies everything to his patient and so their home address is included along with everything else. Shudder!!!
We need to hope we can stop illegal entrance into the US - I'm looking at cutting lawns in my golden years instead of transcription!!
A possibility would be ischemic bowel disease.
There is also the possibility that someone was standing in line for an elderly person, again
we don't know cause we are not there.
Depends on which fingers it is. Guyon's canal syndrome is another possibility.nm

Hospital where I worked cut raises from 12% possibility to 6% with excellent review. Which means
dd
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

Just a thought.....
As a child I had asked my mother why things like this happen and I'll never forget her answer.....
At some point in time this childs death may open doors that would otherwise may have not. It is quite possible that the Lord sparred him from something extremely tragic that would of happen to him if he was still on earth. Sometimes things happen for reasons beyond our understanding. "The Lord works in mysterious ways", sound familiar?
This family will definitely be in my prayers + + + + +
thanks, that is what I thought
Maybe she meant some other regulating organization.
Just thought of something .....
I hope you'll have time to go to Epcot, as there are no many wonderful things to see in that park. One of my favorite places is the country, Germany, not only for their wonderful food, but in particular for their drop-dead GORGEOUS colored crystal they sell in their shop. Crystal of every color - Bavarian, Dresden, cut-to-clear, etc. Bring logs of $$$ and credit cards. Their crystal is to die for. I'm a big collector of the stuff and often joke with my hubby that we could give their shop a run for the money when it comes to inventory and variety.....Hehehe!
Have fun!
Have you thought about
coding? Your knowledge would be transferrable, but you would have to learn the codes. Coding seems to be about where MT was when I got into it about .... years ago. Thank goodness I'm close to retirement age, if I can just hang in there a little longer.
