obvious "wrong" dictation, it was concerning using one's opinion on whether something in the dictation was "politically" correct or incorrect. IMO, that is not our determination to make.

No you wouldn't. You wouldn't like being required to work 7 days per week, mandatory, just like a sweat shop. Of course YOU can make huge amounts of money too if you work 18 hour days.
Of course, I should add that the previous pay was MQ and after the changes that

I have an HP...my previous one was also
an HP and I loved it. My main problem is getting sound to record. I have found that most of my programs work well with Vista. I did speak to HP today and they told me to uninstall sound card and reinstall but I have not tried it yet. They said if it did not work I would have to send it in :(
not this job, but previous one did.

Leaving MQ
A friend of mine left MQ and went back into a hospital setting. She went from barely making 1200 lines a day to over 2000 a day (8 hours). She also went from statuatory with no benefits to all the perks of being in-house including insurance, vacation, 401K, paid holidays, etc. She was also offered after training the opportunity to work from her home which she took. She is so happy. 
Leaving MQ?

Leaving this
Hi Romey, you're not alone. I've done this for 20 years and I find I can't even look at it anymore because of some of the things that have happened in the field. Don't know what to tell you to do because I'm searching too. I should have listened to my common sense a long time ago.
Please consider leaving
Your local police department can give you information on shelters or organization that can put you and your kids in a safe place until you get on your feet. If he is abusing you, you must also consider calling the police on him so the abuse is documented. I'm sure you know of the fatalities that happen everyday due to domestic abuse. Please take action. If he is abusing your children and someone else finds out about it and reports your husband, they can arrest you as well for having knowledge of the fact that your kids are being abused and doing nothing about it.
My heart goes out to you. I have a background in counseling and had sessions with women for years who were being abused. It frustrated me to see these women twice a month for counseling because all they wanted to do was talk about how their spouse continued to abuse them but they wouldn't do anything about it. Your kids will always remember what they are going through. This type of environment often scars children emotionally as well as physically. They can grow up to have major psychological issues as a result.
Life is too short to be miserable everyday. He is not accentuating your life in any way. He is taking from you in every way possible. I beg you to give serious thought to removing yourself from this situation. I know it may feel like you are jumping without a parachute but think of it this way...how much worse could it get? Things can only get better.
Take care.
leaving
Yep, I left. It was NOT easy. Some days i did not think I was gonna make it -- but you know what? I left a big farmhouse and live in a small 2-bedroom apartment. But it is near everything - the library, the school, etc. At first my daughter threw a fit......and my son cried. But a month later...everybody is much much happier. Now, when I walk out of my peaceful car to my peaceful door and lay on my rent-a-center peaceful couch -- I think.....God...where is the screaming? How did I stand it that long? No one is mad around here? And my children are adapting perfectly. And I walk in my room, take off my clothes, lay on my bed and grab a book and read...and it is pure joy. Worth every tear. You'll see. All of us..all of us -- we want you to have the peace that you need and that your babies will thrive with. It's tough..but you are gonna make it.
Did she say why she was leaving sm
I know Star and Rosie don't get along. What did she say? I haven't had time to watch in a couple of weeks.

Leaving MT
Fellow MTs, I am leaving our once-esteemed position. I am taking a position as a trainer at a large national insurance company. More money than I've ever made, lots of paid time off plus holidays, and weekends off. It's been 10 years since I've had a "real job" and had not had to work weekends and holidays.
They are playing for my airline tickets, my accommodations, food and car while stationed away from home. I am one lucky duck.
I used to love doing MT, but it has been a challenge for me the past 2-3 years to stay focused. To all of you who still love the job, I say hurray! This is a blessing for me to make this move at this point in my life and I'm very grateful. I intend to enjoy every moment of it.
Bye, all!
Leaving MT
Congratulations on your new job! There is a time and a season to everything in life, and this is your season for change. God bless you.
Leaving MT
You know what? I just cannot do this anymore. My last day was 12/31/06. I am moving in a different direction--not sure what all yet, but I just cannot transcribe any more. After 17 years of listening to doctors chew, and waiting--listening to silence--with my pay rate DROPPING over the years  , not increasing--I have to leave.
There's only a tiny, tiny part of me that feels sad--it's the part of me that was so overjoyed to be able to do this at home and be here when my children were little. I really thought I would keep doing this forever. Recently, though, I just cannot do it anymore! One day I woke up and had had enough!
I am working on some things here at home that I had going. Some home businesses, things I make, etc.
I just wanted to say BYE.

I wish you the best. I know how you feel. After more than 20 years I too will be leaving transcription. Transcription is just not what it used to be.
Leaving MT
I've already left and felt kind of blue but after reading so many posts here, I feel a relief also. No money in it anymore and I have done this for 35 years! Now I'll turn my attention to sewing, selling on E-Bay, whatever, to keep myself active. Good luck!
Who was your previous employer? I'm more
interested in making "insane amounts of money" than if an employer is nice to me. That's my personal preference.
Mind telling me who your previous was?
Thx.
Given her previous behavior
she would probably accuse you of molesting her if you did try to hug her.
My previous HIM director was sm
a true psychowitch. One day nice as pie and would give you the world. The next day, a bug would bite her and you would spend the next two weeks on all the garbage reports, worst ESL's. I got out. She liked me but didn't like the fact that I didn't suck up or tattle. She hid in a meeting on my last day of work. I went on call but got so busy with my new job that I wasn't able to come in three times when she called so she fired me. How's that for being a witch. She had one other gal on call for a year that didn't come in when she was called and as far as I know, she is still on call. Go figure.
previous posts
I did read all the previous posts, as you indicated. You did give a lot of information. I will let you know in a week or two what I think.
No the previous poster, but I have one...
I like this one. Not sure if you have it or not. The nice thing is that it covers all the states and you can do a sound a like search as well. If you don't find what you are looking for in the AMA results you can just click below the results on "View Non Members" and that will take you to another listing of physicians. I love this site.

Previous DQS uster
That would depend on the new program. I went from DQS last November to MedRite XL and my count plumeted from 260 an hour to about 100 an hour the first few weeks, but keep in mind I was learning three new accounts at the time. Right now I am at about 220 lines per hour unless I get five 10-minute ESL docs in a row. Just a very cumbersome program.

"Pled" is an American term. The correct word is actually "pleaded."

Just went back to previous
job at a doctors practice for a lunch with past co-workers and friends... after that I'm always glad that I left for transcribing at home. Love alot the people I worked with and even my bosses but hated the rest of the crap that goes with an office, every day a new crisis, etc. When I'm feeling down about transcribing and all the junk that can get you bogged down at home, I just need to make a visit back to the old job site and it makes me realize how lucky I am... not that there aren't things that could be better in the MT at home world, but it sure beats what I would have still been doing if I didn't make the move home. Just wish I could bring a few of my friends with me, but I was the only Transcriptionist in that bunch. Just trying to keep smiling!
One of the ones in the previous post.
There in no guarantee with any of the options that you will have service everywhere you go. If you travel mostly in major cities an air card might be an option. The monthly fee is usually $60+ and I don't know if you have to sign a contract. If you have to be connected to the internet all the time now to work (can't download work and then get off-line) then working in the car isn't going to be an option.
Per this and your previous posts, you have no

Don't put them down as a previous employer
etc. Same thing happened to me and I had no problem as soon as I took them off my resume. Good luck

Speaking to yourself? Because I'm not leaving here ... :)

My son is leaving for the Air Force
I am so proud of him, yet so worried with the situation the world is in right now. Please pray for him if you would!
thinking of leaving too
My hands are always killing me and i'm not as focused as I used to be. Plus i'm in school and having something going on the side. But I need to keep a full time job, so i've been looking in the local papers in the health care sections. CNAs make 8 bucks an hour!!! Geez, we get paid more than actual caregivers, but my hand pain is so out of control I may have to take a caregiver job or get certified as a CNA or nutrition specialist and take a pay cut.
Um, didn't I say I was leaving?

Sorry leaving address
I have almost five years experience, still probably considered a newbie when I see some with almost 5 to 6 times that much. But I just wanted to email someone who knows more about transcriptions companies than I do at present.
Finally leaving MQ
Finally leaving MQ. Will miss the nice people but not the new changes. Thanks everyong on this board for your help. It's kind of scary to make a change, but what the heck. It won't matter in 10 years.
Finally leaving MQ
If you do not mind my asking, what company was that test for?
Leaving hospital
This is very common actually. Unless the patient has a braclet on that will alert hospital security when she/he exits doors, it is very easy to do.
You know the adage about "hospital security" being an oxymoron? People come and go all the time, as one of the other posters said.

Leaving MT field?
I feel for you and can understand all your concerns. I think there are areas out there with great demands like teaching, nursing (get your LPN or CNA to get started in the field), radiology technology or a shorter schooling experience would be for medical coding, though won't be surpised if technology takes that job away too! You can become a certified phlebotomist and get started in the lab work area. These areas are just the tip of the iceberg, but change can be done and is not impossible. Good luck!
Who do you think will be leaving tonight?
I think Kevin.
Am in the process of leaving a job right now, and it's a very
Plan on leaving due to the
pay cut, is just bad timing, was told 11/01 would take effect 12/02. Financially, I am not prepared to make a job change until I receive my income tax refund check. I found it to be very degrading and looks like others did also and did actually quit as of 12/02 because the stats are now backed up 4 days since 12/02.
C-Phone - Leaving mid-job
When using a C-Phone can one leave a job on hold to take a break or leave for a period of time? Or do you have to finish the job before you leave?
I think leaving blanks when you are new...sm
to an account is normal. You have to get used to the account and the doctors.
Yep and I'll be leaving them for ATT
Yep and i download at least 60 voice files a day 6 days a week and my kids download music and videos and college assignments-if I stay with Time Warner I might end up paying $100s a month for internet. This way with ATT I can type anywhere; at our cottage, if we go camping, and not have to worry about it. Time Warner is just greedy.
Did you try leaving the .09 and adding .09.vox? nm

Sounds like you might as well be FT with those #s-- at a previous job the min. for PT was 5000
lines every 2 weeks. Granted it got to a point where there was no work so it was impossible to meet quota, but if there was work you had better meet it.....then we had a landslide of work, about 90% ESL.....all the good stuff apparently went up in smoke (they outsourced to the Phillipines).
Did you READ the previous message
I was being sarcastic about being called a "typist". After all, isn't patient care enhanced by ACCURATE and COMPLETE medical records? I would like to think I contribute, albeit modestly, to a patient's care. Don't you ever ask to see your records and check them for accuracy? Couldn't an omission or error result in a problem down the line? It HAS happened!
