really is good, depressing and upsetting of course, but gives a lot of insight I think.

I saw a very sweet documentary....
the other night about chickens. One of the segments was about a man who had installed about 250 roosters on his property, presumably for cock fighting. Anyway the racket the roosters made all throughout the day was deafening and driving his neighbors (none too close, as this was a rural area in Ohio I think). Finally all the residents of this area took the guy to court and got a court order for him to remove the roosters. Maybe a lawsuit is the way to get rid of the yapping dog problem!
last night on HBO was a new documentary..sm

Hacking Democracy on HBO last night - all about voting today in the USA and the Diebold machines and all they found out from 2000 and 2004 (pseudo)elections.


Very sad indeed :(


Most (in this country) have no idea what went on - preferring to keep heads in sands quite like ostriches actually and very unfortunately.


blackboxvoting dot org comes to mind actually as I think some of those folks were on this show yesterday


 


It isn't about showing MTs the money, it's about showing

Unfortunately showing my age here, but
Yul Brynner was always the greatest to me!!  Just wish he was still alive!!!  What a sexy man!!!!!
showing my age
I was only 7 when it came out (just checked), so it's just now becoming a classic for me (he, he, he).
And I'm really glad it wasn't meant to be mean.
you are showing your IGNORANCE
Apparently that is all you have gained from 'getting out, living and learning'.

Knowledge of God is the beginning of wisdom.

I hope you truly 'get smart' by the time you have to give an account for all you have done and not done to the One that made you.
What? How in the world can you say that? I AM showing
compassion. Yes, I'm a mother. I can't pat her on the back and try to settle her. She seemed upset. I was trying to soothe her irritation, literally.

I think you have taken me wrong. I'm very tender with my babies and I thought I was coming across that way to the post above as well.

Gee, I'm sorry if she took that wrong.
I think I did not speak clearly about the just showing up MTs

If a company hires only ICs, then they cannot expect them to work except for the times they want. 


Typing less than 100 lines a day is not pocketchange because of the pay. 


I don't want to worry about the IRS showing

up on my doorstep, so I have my taxes done by H&R Block.  No guarantee that you still won't have problems with IRS, but it makes me feel better.  I don't claim my house/utilities.  I don't claim nickel and dime stuff either. 


When my mother died exactly a week later I get a letter from the IRS stating she owed $25,000.00 - no explanation.  I was freaking, not only was I grieving but having to worry about this.  I wrote a very nice letter, sent them a copy of her death certificate, and said I thought the issue was a roll-over of an IRA.   My mom didn't have much money and I knew that she had rolled over one so I was just guessing.   They sent me a letter a couple of weeks later saying the situation had been resolved and no monies due.  I  don't know what the problem was, but 5 years later I still have that letter.


 


Absolutely! They are showing this whole
last season all summer long. Every Tuesday night...two episodes back to back.
Your young age is showing!
I remember the dictabelt, we had to mark it with chalk to know where to start it up. Talk about archaic! The times they are a'changin! (and for this part - the better!)
Minnie, you are showing your
ignorance. You must get off on bashing people? Are you that miserable of a person? I think it is safe to assume that you don't have much of a life, probably because no one can stand being around someone so negative. Grow up!!
Sorry, then, was showing my ignorance! :) nm

The memory showing says up to on
all of them, which means that is the maximum you can have, but you customize.  You can pick the cheapest one, but by the time you customize it, it can be $200 to $300 more.    I looked at them all and the processor speed is not that fast.  Depending on what programs you use it may be too slow.    I would get one with a faster processor speed.    You may also want to get a laptop with XP instead of Vista since there are still so many bugs with it. 
showing my ignorance
I did not know there were services like that, how do you contact them, what are they called?
and ridiculing someone instead of showing--sm
compassion towards any given person or situation is NOT making them a victim?
LOL..showing your age honey
I absolutely loved your post and agreed a gazillion percent; however, you ARE showing your age here....LOL... with Dr. Marcus Welby and Dr. Kildare... you forgo ZORBA too!!!  LOL.  Oh......the good ol days of good programs to watch......
Go RadGuy, your testosterone is showing NM
.
and your lack of expectations for yourself is showing.

LOVE that response about showing
up naked because you can't afford clothes!  ROTFL. Seriously, though, you should not have to put up with that, but then office politics are undeniably tough and all the troublemakers stick together so it can be difficult if you are the only one with 'the problem."  Bose headphones are the best but very pricey but maybe you can find some on EBay...Good luck!
Poor thing, your negativity is showing

yeah, I keep firing myself but I keep showing up for work the next day.
:P
I agree. Unless you are showing a possessive form for
There are different situations to consider.

Plural forms:
Call all of your MTs and have them respond.

Possessive forms:
Make sure the MT's phone number is correct.

We have these 2 choices because there are 2 characters in this acronym.

When there is only 1 character (alpha or numeric), there is always an apostrophe, regardless.

Single characters:
The patient counted using serial 8's.

Please dot all I's and cross all T's appropriately.

Multiple characters:
In the 1980s, the bill was enacted.

Blood sugar was in the 300s on return of labs.

getting paid is showing appreciation for my work. that's all i care about.
who cares if some supervisor "appreciates" me?  i'm in it for the money not for someone to "appreciate" me. 
At my company, as soon as they start showing improvement, they are gone and we get a new batch.
:+
WHAT race card did she pull? Ever? And are you just being delusional and showing who and how YOU r
x
I knew what she meant, thanks. I was just showing a funny, or at least I thought it was. Sorry to
  It was the "rumatyca" that got me laughing. 
Pardon me, but your ignorance and obvious lack of class are showing.

No reason to feel good about it. Just showing that kids are going to get into trouble
So let them learn how to function in society rather than hide them from it.
She had an ectopic pregnancy. They were showing everything that happened in the past. Next week it

My Norton antivirus is showing a red X on my email and I have no idea what happened. How do I fix
that.
Some people like to keep a Time Clock thing showing on their monitors, too. But

Saw him on CMT show with John Fogarty. Great, great singer with a neat personality and drop dead
gorgeous without seeming to know it. 
Great post. I swear by both Advantage and Frontline Plus-- both work great! - sm
I don't know about "natural" approaches for the house. I have always used flea bombs in the past before the miracle of Advantage and Frontline changed my life. Have not had a flea problem at all since I began using those products about 10 years ago, dose all the dogs religiously once a month with the Frontline Plus except in Dec.-Feb. to save a few bucks and because the ground is generally frozen by then and no fleas are scurring about. -- Hope you get flea free soon.
You have your W2 showing very clearly those taxes were paid. MQ is responsible for those taxes
because you were a statutory employee. That is the responsibility of the employer to pay those just as though you were an employee.
Thanks to all. Got some great feedback and ecouragement. This board is great.
My rant passed, ate a late lunch, now back to the trenches.
GREAT GREAT SHOW! I still think Ellen Pompeo
should have gotten the Emmy/Golden Globe whatever it was for the show. I like Sandra Ho, her character just needs more depth... Next week looks AWESOME!! Maybe there is still a chance for McDreamy!! First season DVD coming out with deleted scenes! Can't wait to get it & watch it!!
It is a GREAT company and great deal! I've had
Vonage about 6 months now and I love it. The only mistake I made was trying to keep my original phone # - I wouldn't recommend that. You have a temp # for a while, and the other provider can fight for the old #, etc. Go to vonage. com. They have new features all the time! There is even a new soft phone that is a phone on your screen. You don't need a real phone when working - just headset. It has 800 #s you can have very inexpensively - great voice mail. You get emails when you have new messages, etc. I only wish I had used them a year ago! Nothing but good things to say, and I complain about everything!
Sounds like he will do great then. Again, best wishes for great success!

That's great Patti. Thanks. Have a great time at the beach.

You should feel great as a transcriptionist if they think your work is that great!!!
It is not your fault they approached you. I think it would be a different storey if you were the one searching for the job to take away from a company. They obviously want to get rid of the company and if you didn't take the job they would probably ask someone else. You should enjoy the better position and not feel guilty!!
Great post -great job of wording your answer! (sm)
Original poster - I completely agree with this answer, especially the part about finding yourself and using all that you have learned intellectually and connecting that to something that you will also enjoy with your heart!! You have so many wonderful options for your future - much more than many of us.
IT - great program, great support system. nm

Thanks for all the great advice! You guys are great!

Great job
Hi, I'm interested in finding somewhere flexibile also as I have a little one at home.  I'm interested in radiology only.  If the place you work for has openings in this specialty could you let me know??  Thanks!
That's great!
I think sometimes people think you are trying to "replace" the dog that died. It's not replace at all, it just helps fill the void. Just like you can never replace a person, you can't replace a pet. They each have their own special place in your heart. Adjustment period - I KNOW!! But it works out. Good luck with your new baby.
great - thanks for this
I've been looking for something like this.  Now I have it.
Wow--that's great! Thank you so much
