You are brilliant!
I did not hit the connect button simultaneously.
Thank you :)
If you were truly as brilliant as you . . .
profess to be, I doubt you would feel the need to broadcast it on a public forum. Wouldn't your abundant intellect be satisfaction enough? Wouldn’t you just prefer to sit and marvel at yourself in the mirror or something? Why would you bother to come here and post among those who probably don’t even have the slightest inkling as to your enormous intelligence?
And, yes, modesty is a good thing to be, whether man or woman. With your massive brain power I would think you would have figured that out a long time ago.
BRILLIANT!!!!
Now YOU are getting the idea. I am not for hire here, however. But thank you for seeing the point and reading between the lines. I only try to help people and not for my own gain. I truly care about America and American and keeping our businesses, whatever they may be in line.
Brilliant. And put 8K MTs out of work.
"I'm sick of hanging on by my fingernails hoping things will get better." -- Stop waiting. Get out.
"Every day for the last 4 years my income has diminished." -- You have allowed it if you have stayed. You are okaying and excusing how they are treating you if you tolerate it.
"As long as men have their fingers in any particular industry, you can bet you will starve doing work for them." -- What? Man hater, are we? Or, do you really believe that MQ is run only by men and there are no women in the ranks? You think women would be better managers? I don't see anything but complainers about MQ on this board -- no one is acting on what is happening. If you're wanting to have a voice and effect change, you have to do something. MQ has provided an avenue to accept complaints in a timely and professional manner. Use it. Fill out a complaint form. Get your fellow complainers to do that. Have their inboxes jammed full of those complaints -- legitimate, professional, formal complaints. That is the mechanism MQ put into place to handle problems and complaints and, by federal regulation, they must abide by their own policies and procedures. Try it at least.
aren't you the brilliant one

Emergency question for brilliant computers techs. sm
I just had a weird experience with my computer. The screen looked like it was shaking. I thought it was in Word at first, but the desktop was doing this also. It was like a wavy line was going down the screen, part of it would jump a little bit, then below it some more would jump. It was almost like a wave pattern to the side, I could see the edges of the screen moving in and out. I thought I saw this yesterday once or twice, but decided it was my eyes. It wasn't, this was definitely real. It lasted for approximately a minute. Is this something to worry about? TIA.
BUT, you are brilliant. Keep up the good work! You are my hero for today! nm

i have been through some rough times lately and had to apply for some help. there are signs, big signs, all over our offices saying "YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE LEGAL TO GET HELP". so we and our government do give them our benefits whether they are legal here or not. now that is messed up. i am helping to support them so they can take away my jobs and i can't even support my kids and yes i get benefits, wow $75 a month in food stamps which lasts not even a week in a household of 6. don't get me wrong, i am thankful for any help at the moment, but i get penalized for trying to work my tail off and still can't survive.
there was recently an article in our local newspaper where one of our local school districts tried to charge $1000 a year for each illegal student enrolled. it was bulked and the illegals got a lawyer to sue for discrimination. the school district merely stated that they had to HIRE extra teachers that could speak the foreign language just to teach these children and were trying to offset some of the expenses. ridicilous!! so again our taxpayers money is paying to educate illegals as well.

Aw come one give her a break. She said she was sorry and is willing to refund. Give her a chance to
do what is right. If she fails to do what is right, then go about this in an adult way and not act like such a child. "you suck" That is so immature.
She is responding to you and you are eating her alive. Why would she put herself out there to be treated like this if she didnt mean it.
I am really astonished at how people can act on here. Would you treat people like this in person? If you do, I cant imagine you having very many friends.
Remember we are all "HUMAN."
A simple google search will give you your answer...I'd give you the answer,

Give them whatever you
would give them at the "fairy tale" wedding. The honeymoon may be over by next year.
hum, I might have to give it a try, then...
Don't give it up
I have been hurt severely on several occasions... and on occasion yes... a bit gun shy for the first period back in the saddle. It does lessen and then goes away. Just trust in your knowledge and your experience. You have to trust your horse. Just go slowly at first. But do NOT give up. That is the worst thing that you can do. You have to face it and it slowly you will relax more. Keep in mind that your horse will know/will feel your hesitancy and your fear. In order for him/her to be relaxed, you must try to as well. That is why going slowly at first will help regain your confidence. Just around the ring maybe for a bit.... then a little more open. Work yourself back up to your usual routine. Good luck!
Thank you, will give a try

don't give up
There is no reason to give up just because you failed a test. I have tested with a few companies and changed jobs a couple of times through my six years of transcribing. I had no training either. I had a very special family member who helped me out(she owned her own business). I trained through the summer when I was in high school with her and by the time I was about 20 I was working part time with her. Just because you are switching from tapes the computer based files doesn't mean that you can't do the work. It may take a little time getting used to it, but there shouldn't be any reason to not be able to do the work. Just like any other job, you may have to put in some applications at various places and go on interviews, and it may take some time, but you will eventually find a job. As far as transcribing, I notice many places require either a c-phone or being able to install Express Scribe or a similar program on your computer. If you don't have one, you can probably find a c-phone on ebay for around $200. Just try to stay away from the larger MT companies and you should be okay. I notice the smaller ones are easier to find a job with.
One can't give up a job, even a bad one,
that pays the bills, dead end or not. I think if this were me, I'd keep the job and take a better school that will mentor me into a job at the end of it. Nobody that I know would be able to give up a paying job to take on a mentored position for no pay. Another option would be to find a different job that is nights and do the free internship during the day. Either way you'd win in the end. Best of luck to you.
They will give you everything
When you order, they mail you the adapter that you need and since you have a router, you are good to go.
Okay, I give up.
It has no appeal. Just a job.
Give this a try...sm
Brown 1 pound hamburger and drain. Add 1 jar Prego spaghetti sauce, 1 8-oz can tomato sauce, 1/2 cup water. Simmer for 10 minutes or so.
Cut a loaf of French or Italian bread into 1-inch slices. Place in 1 layer on the bottom of a 13 x 9 pan.
Mix together 8 oz cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup sour cream, and 2 tbsp of Hidden Valley Ranch dry dressing. Spread this over the bread. Sprinkle some parmesan cheese all over this. Sprinkle half of an 8 oz bag shredded mozarella over the parmesan.
Pour the spaghetti sauce mix on top. Sprinkle some more parmesan and the rest of the mozarella cheese on top.
Bake for about 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
Thanks, I'm going to give that a try
when I'm working and for sleeping. The doctor tells me that it is important to keep everything moving to avoid getting too stiff; however, I do think I need to try a soft neck collar or rolled up towel as you suggested especially when working. I think that may really help take some of the stress off. I will be talking to my therapist about it when I go as well. Thanks so much for the tip!
Did I ask you to give up ANYTHING!!??
Nope! If you want to ride all over town burning up expensive gasoline and putting wear and tear on your car, with your fingers on the steering wheel instead of on the keyboard making $$$, be my guest. Now let me guess Patty - next you're going to tell us that you don't drive a car, you ride a bike or scoooter instead to and from your doctor's offices and you're so fast on the keyboard that it doesn't matter you spend four hours out of the day riding up and down the interstate weaving in and out of traffic picking up and delivering, you still make the same amount! HAH!
no, I don't give them that...*lol*...ya nut!!..nm
I say also, don't give up sm

I'd give anything just to have A doc like that
practically ALL of my docs are like that and this has been my experience my entire MT career UGH it really makes me cranky
Don't give up...sm
not everybody on this board, or other boards, are that rude. It is VERY hard trying to break into this field as a newbie. I know that from personal experience, and so should every body here, as they were newbies once too. Some got lucky and basically had their jobs handed to them, but most sent resumes and tested until they were blue in the face, but eventually some company gave them a chance. Once that happens, just stick with it until you have a couple of years of experience. Try everything they throw at you, and believe me, it will be the worst of the worst, but it will make you a good MT. When you gain confidence, then move on, if you want to, to better pastures. If it is the rudeness that is bothering you, well, other than trying to have a lot of patience, I cannot really help with that. Some of these people can be downright vicious and it really gets my dander up sometimes. I get defensive and argue back, but then after I cool off some, I think about how my anger made me look and feel, and how the rude ones are SO NOT WORTH IT, and I get over it. It is hard sometimes, believe me, I know. I have been told that I have an anger problem, I am nuts, and I should seek psychiatric therapy just for stating my opinions. Some people just seem to get their jollies by seeing if they can push your buttons. Learning to deal with the criticism is all a part of growing up. When it gets to me too much, I stay away from this place for a couple of days, and then things get better. There really are A LOT of nice people on this board though, you just have to learn who they are and stay away from the rest. Good luck to you. Some of us DO care about the young'n's.
How would you even give them to him?
If you can print them, then I'd say sure. Print them, charge him per line x3 or something like that. Tell him though you must charge because you did (at one time) type them. You need to charge him for what you typed... That should lighten the blow... I wouldn't hold a grudge. He'll be calling you when the VR SUX! Good luck... believe me, he'll call ya' in about a month either to edit the VR for him or to say he wasted his money! 
Don't give up
Sure it's hard, but very few things in life are easy. It may take you some time to find a job that is newbie-friendly, but keep looking (hopefully you have other employment while you look). And keep studying the terminology. None of us did it perfectly the first time.
Just hang in there.....you've worked too hard to give up now.
Definitely give it a try
I can't give you specific advice about MT schools or who hires newbies, because I have been in the medical field for over 20 years, although I have been doing at-home transcription for less than a year.
There are two things I can speak with confidence about. I am currently working as an IC (independent contractor) and have two part-time jobs. I am very fortunate that my husband has good benefits where he works so I do not have to worry about that. So I can definitely tell you there are part-time jobs available.
The other thing is - perhaps you could consider working full-time for a few months, until you have some experience to put on your resume. That would make it easier for you to get a part-time job with another company. I know it would be really difficult to work full-time and take care of your children, too, but it would only be temporary.
I was a stay-at-home mom, too, and I did various things to make money - I had a home day care for a while, I typed student papers, resumes, etc., and then I happened on a job doing transcripts of news broadcasts for a news monitoring company. That was a great job in a lot of ways but most of the small local companies like the one I worked for are being bought out by big national companies and they lay off the local people.
Anyway....sorry for the ramble, I just wanted to let you know you're not alone and there are ways for stay-at-home moms to make money. Medical transcription pays more than most other at-home work (yes, believe it or not - despite all the complaints you will see about low pay). I hope you are able to find something that works for you.
And good for you for putting your children first.
Don't give up
I feel your pain, it comes through loud and clear and believe me, you are not alone. I have been an MT for 12 years now. I will tell you how I started. I had a 1-year-old set of twins when I went to MT school and a not-so-good marriage. Once I was in my first real MT job I became pregnant with my SECOND set of twins - I kid you not. I had four babies in three years. My husband was a complete ass. He, too, said things like your husband is saying to you. My husband DID NOT make enough money for us and believe me I struggled and struggled to supplement that income. I worked during naps, at night, or early in the morning. I was terribly burned out after a short time, and most of all burnt out emotionally.
I do not agree with the poster who told you to find a different job. Here's why: As time has gone by, I have gained more experience. I did get a chance to work in house for a major hospital and the experience was invaluable. I was able to work out some child care with our school district. I learned all the different work types inside and out. I met ladies more experienced than myself and boy, were they producers! I didn't know that it was possible to do as much as they did and do it WELL. I did not stay in house too long because of the demands of my family and by that time, I HAD to leave that marriage and was a single mom of 4 kids (two sets of twins). When you HAVE to do something, you learn to make lemonade out of your lemons even sometimes through the tears.
The hospital I worked at had/has a program to send their transcriptionists home after a certain time and that is what I did. I had a great paying employee job with this major hospital and I worked there for about 4-5 years. Eventually, I met my now husband who is an absolutely wonderful human being and we have had one baby together (Phew! only one this time). I quit the hospital job because now I need more flexibility to my schedule and I started working for a service.
Now my twins are 13 and 10 and my baby is 2. I've made it a long, long way... and I can hardly say that without crying. I now have 12 years of hard-earned experience and can type just about anything.
Here's my advice to you: Don't give up. Sometimes it is one day at a time... one awful hour at a time (as far as the emotional pain with family and whatnot). The job you are working for right now is one I personally would toss out the window. I work for companies where they, too, are production minded, meaning they use a great, streamlined platform, they put you on one or two accounts and leave you to your work -- they trust your experience and let you go -- you in turn do a good job for them -- a trust/trust, win/win situation. For the commonly used doctor names/hospitals/whatever they provide lists for you. I would not work where I have to do 20 minutes of research to find these things -- absolutely ridiculous! THERE ARE COMPANIES OUT THERE! They want to make money, too! They are not making money if their MT's have to spend this kind of nonsense time. Leave those accounts to the ladies with small MTSO's.
Please, look for a better company. They are looking for dedicated people like you ALL THE TIME.
With your husband and in-laws..... all I can say is I feel you pain because I sure went through it. I could go on and on about that. Believe in yourself and that what you are trying to accomplish with your home, your daughter, yourself, your family is truly noble. Just because they say negative things about it, does not mean they are true. Hold on to your integrity and stand tall as best you can. Don't argue back with them because you will only walk away feeling worse and they will not understand because they do not want to understand.
In time, if they are discouraging you to the point where you can't pick your head up anymore, then you need to make some decisions ...... weighty though they are.
I hope this helps you. I justed wanted you to know that you are not alone and you can do it. I used to have the same troubles with my pay and now, no kidding, my direct deposit check this morning in my bank account was $1600, and I have made even more than that.... and I am not one to talk about money too much. I just wanted you to see that you can be successful.
Don't give up!
I can't give you pay details, but I currently work for New England Medical Transcription and know they are in the process of hiring many MTs. This is the nicest set of people you'll ever work for and the work is very low stress. I'm extremely happy there.
Just a thought for your job search.
Did they ever give away the 3rd
nm
do not give up
Please do not give up. . you are so young and sound like a very intelligent young man. . there are organizations/groups to help you. . please don't be afraid to ask for help. . like someone else suggested, most churches will help you even if you are not a member... just talk to someone and if they can't help, they can point you in the direction of help. . Also, please do try to get out in the air/sun every day or at least let the sun shine in your windows. . I will pray for strength for you.. and please let us know how you are doing - lots of people do care about you. .
I like it because then I don't have to give my
Thanks. Will give that a try.
