Be careful with pepper spray, you'll get your dogs too

and possibly yourself if the wind is blowing just right.  The stuff is extremely powerful and won't just bring down the offending animal.


I agree with calling animal control, as they are the "animal police" and the "people police" won't even bother. 


The dog owner needs to be reported whether he was in his yard trying to get his dog back in or not.  Sure, maybe the dog "got loose," but he should have at least been decent enough to apologize.


 


I agree with MOMT, but be careful not to print company names or you'll

Submitting production report?

During training we were told how to create a time sheet if you are an employee, but for statutory employees do we need to submit anything or is this information taken off by payroll automatically?



TIA


PROOF your work before submitting
IF you are going to correct this at all, you should try forcing yourself to re-listen to the entire report before sending it off.

Of course it will slow you down - that's the point. But you'll keep a job better because you'll catch your own errors...

There is no substitute here - it's a matter of concentration /focus paying attention to everything you type... this will help you learn to read as you type - and realize right away when something sense.

That is hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am rolling on the floor with that one.
I saw that, and it's hilarious!!!

Hilarious!
Ha!  That is the funniest thing I've heard all day!  I remember way back when I first started as an MT, the surgeon had dictated what sounded like "slap reconstruction," so that's what I typed.  It was "flap reconstruction!"  Gosh, I'm sure glad the surgeon had a sense of humor and he read the document before signing it...hee-hee!
Those are hilarious! (nm)

You'd elect Bush all over again!   God help you!  And you probably thought, and still do think, that Iraq has WMD.  Hahahahaha!

OMG that is hilarious! My DH's is too! sm
It never fails, he will start talking as soon as I step on the pedal. As soon as I lift my foot to try to catch what he said, he stops. Then when I think he was just making a rhetorical comment or something I didn't need to respond to, I will step on the pedal and he will start talking AGAIN!! This will go on for a couple of minutes, listening to the same little bit of dictation over and over, until I finally tell him to either SPEAK OR SHUT UP!
That is hilarious even though

EVERYTHING you said is true and very very frustrating, it was still sooo funny...especially, and I forget what number...the yawning issue...I always love to try and figure out what they are saying in the middle of a yawn.


You also forgot number 11...spell the word "the" but don't spell physicains names, names of other doctor's office or words that THEY can't even pronounce!


thanks for the laugh...I definitely needed a good on! 


that's hilarious! No offense, of course!
Sounds like something I would do... I actually did LOL!
?it's individualized to us? - that's hilarious. They

have quit and have sent them 3 resignation letters!!!!


It still surprises them when we tell them I DON'T WORK FOR YOU ANYMORE~!

Office Space is hilarious! It's an older movie, but sooo funny! The attitude Peter

has (the main character) reminds me of me!  Gotta see if you haven't already.  I watch it over and over and I still laugh.  


My favorite lines:


"Can't you just zonk me out so that I don't know that I'm at work, in here?  Can't I just come home and think that I've been fishing all day or something?" 


"I don't really like my job and I'm not gonna go anymore."

When I broke my ankle, I was just grateful it wasn't the hands. Without our hands we'd be totally screwed.

I broke my right ankle slipping on ice and was lucky to have gloves on because the palm of the glove was totally torn up and my hand was okay.

Good luck and be sure to do your exercises when it is time.
It'll happen. You'll find your fit.
You might have to kiss a few frogs first, though.

I have two IC contracts right now. I recently went back to a job I had quit earlier in the year to work for the other company I am still working for.

The newer job has 80% ESLs. I transcribe OP notes primarily and I can fill in other work types as the opportunity arises. I am frustrated with this particular situation. After 6 months, I am making less money and working longer hours. I am past the learning curve and I should be doing better, at least in the number of hours I am spending doing the job. We have run out of work for 24 hrs at a time at least 5 or 6 times since December 1, and in November it was more than that. I have a friend who worked for this company as well and she was having similar difficulties. The only thing that we can figure is that they are shorting us line count some way, because after 6 months at it, it should be easier/faster/more money, but it is less and less every single pay period. It is not a nice thing to accuse a company of doing, but it SEEMS that way to us. I am fed up with being expected to type every single OP note that comes in 24/7 and meeting the 6 hr TAT for them on weekends, evenings, holidays, wee hours of the morning...

I took back a job I held for 2-1/2 yrs. The team leader has changed and this gal thinks that I should be on call 24/7 for whenever she has work. I might have some at 7 a.m., or perhaps not until 6 p.m. or later. I can't plan my personal life and between these two IC situations, I find that I am not eating on a daily basis, not showering on a daily basis and not sleeping more than 3 or 4 hours at a time. I have lost weight and I don't feel very well. I woke up today with a rip roaring head cold (my first in nearly 8 yrs) and it has already moved to bronchitis and I am expecting pneumonia by the weekend because I develop it very easily. I already have deep pain in my back.

Yes, I should call in sick tomorrow, but I really can't take the fallout. The job I took back I am covering for another gal who wanted vacation over the holidays and if I have to call in sick, the team leader will call me and pitch a fit about how this is my responsibility. It IS my responsibility, I did say I would do it, and I will do it, despite being quite ill. In the past, when I worked for this company, they would not allow me to call in sick for a "cold" without a doctor's note. I worked through many illnesses with them and only called in sick when I developed West Nile Fever and while I was sick for over a month, I only called for my last 12 reports one day when I could no longer see the computer screen because my head hurt.

The problem is that yes, many MTs lack work ethic. They don't take their responsibility seriously. This is not a work as you please career, not even for an IC. I can see the MTSO's point of view, I truly can. Like finding experienced, reliable and capable MTs, for the MTs who are these things, finding a company will treat you like a human being is equally difficult. I sit here, feeling lousy and like I am an utter slave labor with no consideration whatsoever. I know that my work needs to be done, but when I am this sick it is better that someone else do it for the sake of the work, for accuracy and for speed of getting it out. I know that I am needed, but to be the MT these companies need me to be, I also need to look after my own health.

I will also mention that when I have asked for vacation, I have been approved for the time, but the MTSO queues up my work and calls me then I am not on the system getting it done. I have told them I had been approved for time off, but the MTSO didn't schedule anyone to cover for me and I am told to get on work, vacation or no, if I want to keep my job.

Thus, I work 24/7/365 and have for years. I work sick, I work when I am in pain (I have an AI disorder), I work exhausted from staying up all night covering for others who are allowed to call in sick and have vacations when I can't have either. I work having no health insurance and not being able to afford the $125 a month to buy some with a high copay so I can see a doctor. I work without breaks for breakfast, lunch or dinner and I sometimes come close to having an accident because if I leave my desk to go to the little girls' room I get nasty calls about where I am at and what I am doing.

Many MTs are mistreated, and I am one of them.
Be VERY careful.
That kind of cruelty to animals is an indication of a very deep problem. You are a much better person than I would have been under the circumstances. I don't care what kind of sob story he tried to spin, I'd have sued him for everything he had for the false police report AND pressed charges for animal cruelty. At the very least, you might want to ask him to retract his accusations IN WRITING and send copies to the police department and the animal control folks, just in case the girl tries on some other type of false accusation to get attention. Your good heart is admirable and I am humbled by your charitable reaction, but at the same time, you must protect yourself, your family, and your innocent dog. JMHO.
Soy can also help, but you have to be careful...
as soy also can inhibit the thyroid  function.  One serving a day is all that is recommended to help with menopausal symptoms. 
Thank you! Be careful though,
horsewhipped for your "liberal agenda".
OSI be careful?
Why?
be careful
I wouldn't use a vacuum, some of the parts are tiny and you could end up sucking them up. The canned air is better, it won't damage anything.
Me, too, but be careful (sm)

I read something about a prostate being dictated as a _______ cc prostate, which needed to remain as is. Anybody know?


Seriously, he does need to be careful what he

Be careful with that!
When you get paid by the line, you get paid by the number of lines times your cpl. Usually a line is 65 characters including spaces. When you get paid by the character, that can often (although not always) mean getting paid by actual character strokes--AND THAT CAN GET YOU BURNED. If you use an expander, as any intelligent MT would do, you won't be paid for the letters your Expander adds to the document--only for the actual keystrokes. For example, if you type "djd;" and that expanded to "degenerative disk disease," you would only be paid for four characters as opposed to the 25 characters you SHOULD be paid for. Some companies do it this way, some don't. Make sure you check it out COMPLETELY!
I'd be careful sm
$1.20 for plain films would be OK. $1.20 for MRIs, Angios, etc would be a rip off. Make sure you have a good mix of reports.
