Think of the people who loved Tom Cruse until his rants based on Scientology.

I don't like some people because of their political views. I see them in a different light, maybe stupid, if they don't have the same views I have.

Tell the truth now. Does anyone diagnose other people based on what they transcribe?
It's funny but I feel like everytime someone has symptoms, I find myself secretly diagnosing them. Also I am more cautious because while typing ER reports, I realize all the things that can go wrong.
Scientology appears to be nothing more....n/m
What is so great about Scientology that the actors like it so much?

Line-based vs. hour-based requirement
Hospitals do have an hourly requirement, and generally incentive after a certain line level. MQ only has a line based requirement, which is 12,000 per pay period. The hourly requirement is strange, unless they now plan to convert to an hourly pay plan?
My bad; this should go to the Scientology forum under Religion; thread locked.

Shouldn't this thread be locked - supposed to be on the Scientology Board. nm

if you live among trashy people, low income people, people w/o goals or direction,
content to just get by, you by default become a part of a group. "people" have decided to group trailer people as trash. that is because there are enough people in that group to earn the title and even if you aren't trash, you are categorized by others. did i think i was trash in lower class neighborhood surrounded by people who drank and fought all weekend? no but i knew i wasn't staying and did not try to pretend that all the fools in the neighborhood were just nice folks who ended up where they were because high horse snobs deemed their neighborhood low class. people for the most part live exactly where they belong because they don't want to educate themselves, they don't mind "trash" around them and they don't want to be bothered trying just a bit hard to extract themselves from that world. they justify everything to themselves i guess saying everyone who doesn't like their lifestyle is a snob and the comedians (Jeff Foxworthy/Chris Rock, etc) who make fun of them are just ill-informed.
As for me, I fought hard to get out and don't even want to look back. It amazes me people stay for generations.
I LOVED IT. . . .
And had to forward it to all my "crabby" friends.
I loved my cat too and still do
I had to put my 18-plus year old cat to sleep 2 months ago. She was with me since she was born. She had end-stage renal failure and for a year I had to give her three times weekly infusions of Ringer's. She was actually really healthy right up until the end though and used to boss the other 2 youngsters around. I miss her every day. She went with me back and forth across the country. I know exactgly how you feel.
I did and loved it - sm
She came every other week and charged $15 and hour. She would spend 4 hours and she was a white tornado in those 4 hours let me tell you. I loved, loved, loved having her.
Unfortunately, i had to let her go when i moved into rehabbers paradise. No sense in paying someone to fight a losing battle until rehabbing is over say in about 10 years :(
We did that too, my 2 loved it too! - nm

My mom loved them and had many of them -nm
throughout the years, so I grew up with them. They are nice, though I put my hair in a pony tail so I can see. Started out with an old Plymouth in the 60s and ended with a 2003 BMW Z4 (very nice). They only time it was a drag was in an unexpected rain storm, though now you just push a button and the top goes back on....until her corvette (1 car before the BMW) we had to do it manually, so stop the car, pull up the top, lock, etc. Also in the summer, very hot seats...carry towels so you don't scald off the skin on the back of your thighs, butt and back, though cloth seats would help with that problem, and obviously don't leave anything in the car you wouldn't mind losing (i.e. stolen or blown away). They are fun though, I hope to get one myself one day but content myself with driving with all the windows down now. Have fun shopping.
TFS! Loved it
I need that laugh!!
Loved pet...
I had to put down my Andi (poodle mix dog) today. Last night I came home from church and found her on the door step apparently hurt. Brought her to the vet who kept her over night. I went in this morning but she had multiple fractures and had to be put to sleep. I don't think I will get another pet. It's too hard when you lose them.
yes, i saw and loved the
was wondering if the walking tour is only a group tour or is there a map and written directions so that one could walk the tour alone (or with a friend, etc.).
the MT info is good but i am much more interested in NY and seeing it from an *insider's* point of view. i know that is not the purpose of the blog but maybe you could do something on that line regarding NY??
I used to do these too! Loved them! sm
They were long and kind of boring in my opinion, but I made a LOT of $$ and had a GREAT dictator. he was so great, in fact, that he transitioned into doing his work by voice recognition without a hitch. I truly miss that account . . . :(
Loved this. (nm)

Yes, loved it.....sm
Yes, I used it for several years and loved it. It does not have its own expander, but I used InstantText with it quite successfully. I hardly ever hear of it any more. Do you mind sharing what company still uses it?
Loved it
Who still uses this program???? It was great. Does not have its own Expander but I used Instant Text and it worked great!!
Loved it.
Where did you find it? I am thinking to change mine.
LOVED the job!!!!
I worked for this company a while back & loved the job. I say to anyone out there reading the same rubbish I did, use your own judgement about a person/job and don't let bitter faceless people influence you otherwise - and THEY talked about being rude?!!! If I wasn't forced to give up the vet op work (family reasons), I would never have left! New clinics kept opening every year, and the owner always did her best to keep me informed and made my job as easy as possible! Some people prefer to work for large transcription companies, but I prefer to work for smaller companies, where you are recognized as being an indvidual that is an IMPORTANT member of the team. 
Loved it!
I enjoyed reading this post. I guess it was that punch line that really got to me LOL....
Your real-life doc kinda reminds me of Dr. House on TV, though Dr. House seems to have become more contrite during the last 10 minutes of the season finale.
I've always thought that there could not possibly be real life docs out there like House, at least not ones who would be allowed to see patients, but now I am not so sure.
Have you ever thought of a second career in which you take real-life experiences and fictionalize them, send the scripts to the people who make movies and TV shows? I think you would be very good at that.
I don't think so - my pay is based
on my base rate of 9 cpl and then my incentive that can be as high as 2 cpl.
Nothing was mentioned about extra pay for weekends or holidays.
M, based on what you know,,,,
from doing transcription for an insurance company, what do you feel is a fair price to charge per page. The font is Courier new 12; the right and left margins are 1.5 inches - each side, with the top and bottom margins being 1.0 inch - each side.
If her job was based on that and they
found her out I guess they could fire her, but unless she is saying she is an MD or such and practicing, doubt it.
LOL! Loved your response...
 the guy would probably burn the whole neighborhood down just to be sure he got the one who did it! I really wished there was something I could do, though. I loved your graphics.. That's exactly what I feel like doing!
I loved it. Very moving.
zz
I had one when I was inhouse and loved it! sm
I just wish I could afford to get my own right now. It takes a little getting used to, but not too bad and it's soooooo comfortable.
When I used to use Medrite I loved it.
I'm not sure what that person does not like about it. It was extremely easy to use.
Awww I loved her...
she was a great actress and she made me laugh. RIP Shelly.
I loved it!! I feel that way every day!!

Yes, but then I loved beaded anything and
oh and loved Gunsmoke!! SM.....

McCloud" Star Dennis Weaver Died
Burt Reynolds: "He was a wonderful man and a fine actor, and we will all miss him."
American television actor Dennis Weaver best known for his roles as sidekick "Chester Goode" on TV's first "adult Western" Gunsmoke and as Marshal Sam McCloud on the NBC police drama McCloud, died Friday, age 81.
Weaver passed away from complications of cancer at his home in Ridgway, in southwestern Colorado, it was reported Monday by his publicist, Julian Myers.
Burt Reynolds, Weaver's co-star in "Gunsmoke" stated: "He was a wonderful man and a fine actor, and we will all miss him."
Weaver was born in Joplin, Missouri to Walter Weaver and Lena Prather. His first role on Broadway came as understudy to Chapman as Turk Fisher in Come Back, Little Sheba.
He eventually took over the role from Chapman in the national touring company. Solidifying his choice to become an actor, Weaver enrolled in The Actors Studio, where he met Shelley Winters.
During this time--the start of his acting career--he supported his family by doing a number of odd jobs, including selling vacuum cleaners, tricycles and women's hosiery.
In 1952, Winters aided him in getting a contract from Universal Studios. He made his film debut that same year in the movie The Redhead from Wyoming. Over the next three years, he played roles in a series of movies, but still had to work odd jobs to support his family.
It was while delivering flowers for one of these jobs that he heard he had landed his biggest break — the role of "Chester" on the new television series Gunsmoke — the highest-rated and longest-running series in TV history (1955 to 1975). He received an Emmy Award in 1959 for Best Supporting Actor (Continuing Character) in a Dramatic Series.
From 1967 to 1969, he appeared on the television show Gentle Ben as Tom Wedloe.
He began appearing on the series McCloud in 1970, for which he received two Emmy Award nominations: in 1974, he was nominated for Best Lead Actor in a Limited Series and in 1975, for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series. His frequent use of the affirming Southernism, "There you go", became a catchphrase for the show.
From 1973 to 1975, he was president of the Screen Actors Guild.
In 1978, he played the trail boss R.J. Poteet in the television miniseries Centennial on the episode titled "The Longhorns". Dennis Weaver also appeared in many acclaimed television films.
In 1980, he played Dr. Samuel Mudd, who was unjustly imprisoned for the Lincoln assassination, in The Ordeal Of Doctor Mudd. In 1983, he played a real estate agent addicted to cocaine in Cocaine: One Man's Seduction. Weaver received probably the best reviews of his career when he starred in the 1987 film Bluffing It, in which he played a man who is illiterate.
In February 2002, he appeared on the animated series The Simpsons (episode DABF07, "The Lastest Gun in the West") as the voice of aging Hollywood cowboy legend Buck McCoy.
For his contribution to the television industry, Dennis Weaver was given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6822 Hollywood Blvd, and on the Dodge City Trail of Fame. In 1981, he was inducted into the Western Performers Hall of Fame at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
Thanks for sharing!! Loved them.

ABSOLUTELY LOVED NCL......
I think it depends on what you are looking for. I have also been on Celebrity twice. The thing I love about NCL is the Freestyle Cruising. Pre-kids days it was nice to get all fancied up and dressed for dinner. Nowadays I prefer to be very casual and eat whenever I am ready, not at a specific sitting. The other nice thing about NCL is that you do not have to worry about tipping. No figuring $3.50 per person per day for this staff member, and $2.50 per person per day for this staff person. This is all included in the price of the cruise on NCL. We are trying Carnival in June. Hope they are as good. Good Luck
I loved your blog (sm)
What a jolt to reality. Reminded me of things I'd forgotten I liked about this type of work. Too easy to concentrate on the negatives day to day. I have a cat too but he is not as much company as yours seems to be. Nice spot for him by the window--I'm sure he is very content to hang out with you during the day.
thanks...Loved Georgia!...nm

yw....lol Yeah, I loved it!...nm

HAHA-- LOVED IT!
NO-V8 and it could get up and move! loved it!

LOL! Loved your post ; )

I agree, I loved it - sm
I used it for quite awhile, then I decided to try the 4000, which is an actual divided keyboard, and now I love that one too, have trouble deciding which one to use! Maybe I'll switch back & forth to break up the monotony. :)
loved your blog
Just finiished reading your blog and I loved it. I also requested you as a friend if you don't mind, cannot wait to read more.
Oh my god my mom LOVED Irma!
I remember the one book...all pages all dog-eared up..."If Life is a Bowl of Cherries, why am I in the Pits" or something like that. That is a total blast from the past!
I loved it too Nana, old MT here also,
boy do I remember the carbon. I started in radiology where there were 5 carbons, and if I made a typo I had to fix every single one, what a pain that was. Let me say also, I was with MQ 16 years and if I left a blank for QA, they never gave me feedback, never told me about Google (not a computer lover), when I researched, I used books, of which I have many. I was lucky enough as far as the doctor names that my two accounts were local and I had the good old phonebook. I did like your post, made remember the good old days, and sometimes I wish I had one of those typewriters. Have a nice day everyone, I am off today, going to visit my expectant daughter.
Here's what I've used and loved it...
Abacus SE performs two functions. It is a counting software, but also creates accurate invoices.
The program is very user friendly and best of all, it has a trial version with no time limit.
I loved Meditech!
Would work on it today if my company had it. But, I've been on computers for nigh on 20 years now, so I started with DOS and LOVED it.
I have always loved Gateway also but -
they were bought by Acer and I am not sure that helpful midwest technical support still exists there.
I have loved my job through the years but
I am absolutely thrilled to say I start drawing off money from full retirement social security fund this month. I have wanted to stay in transcription and hope that I will be able to. At the same time with all the new things being implemented such as EMR and the such, I am thrilled that I no longer have to worry about every little thing I hear about a job, no job, part job, etc. I have been in the same boat with others on here that hear rumors about this and that. I have had really good jobs only to have them outsourced. I have gone from really good money to basically pocket money now, not enough to raise a family on like in years past for me. I feel for other's plights, I really do because at one time I was there also. To work at a job and to have a job, you had to bite your tongue sometimes in order to keep a job. I hope the present employment I have continues but if it should not, guess I would be really retired. I know how transcription has gone over the years and I see no bright shiny light at the end of the tunnel, just looks more bleak.
