are hero's. One who puts themselves in harms way to protect another is a hero.

Bad things? what bad things? people's being petty and small?

to only his chosen few is indicative of.....
whatever one wants to interpret that behavior as being........   
If it was hers, she would have fought for it.
Frankly, his version of events is more believable, and my BS meter is a highly tuned machine due to raising multiple teenagers.
What, like most people don't do those things?
I have a low flow shower head and a water conserving toilet. You don't even need to shower or wash your hair daily. Nobody gets that dirty. Take a sponge bath every other day. I had my house weatherized and analyzed for energy efficiency to be sure I wasn't wasting gas or electricity. Then I updated the windows, insulated the house, and installed a new energy efficient furnace. Then there's the on-demand water heaters instead of the ones that run all the time. I have no magazine or newspaper subscriptions because you can find everything you want to read online. I resell, reuse, or donate everything I can. I recycle aluminum, glass, paper, plastic, tin, and any lumber or metal scraps. I avoid styrofoam and CFCs. I work at home so I don't have to commute. I have an electric scooter and a bicycle so I don't have to drive. I have my own organic garden and compost bin. I freeze or can my homegrown fruits and vegetables, then reuse the jars the next year. This reduces the need for tin cans and for semi trucks to transport the cans to my grocery store, too. I even divert rainwater for watering purposes instead of running a hose. Everybody I know of does all of those things and more. We're not treehuggers preaching to everyone else about how we're holier than thou either.
Yes, but the test files are indicative of the actual work.
If the sound quality was so terrible, you didn't want to work there anyways! Right? I do know how you feel. I brain fahrvegnugened on the difference between brady and tachy. Now, everybody knows that one. I just got momentarily confused on it because I get "deer in the headlight" syndrome on oral testing.
But if people who know things do not post
it on the board, how should TechSupport know that some people already know it?
So she offers her knowledge in a, as she explained it,
rather extensive and elaborate way, so to give all the information and avoid misunderstandings.
End of discussion!
Today is Saturday, my free day, I have to bake a chocolate-cream-cheese cake for my daughter who comes and visits!
Have a nice Saturday evening!
Community near me succesfully fought one off, but sm
that was only because there are about three within ten miles of there. If there are none in your town, I wish you luck.
She's not mental, it's just that she's right about many things people can't face up to...
Most of what she says is true. It's been far more documented as fact and the truth than the information the administration has given and still gives.
As far as soldiers.....read optruth.org. There are many soldiers who do not agree with this war or how this administration has handled it and they need to be listened to.
You'd probably be AMAZED at how many people do fall for these things.

I love the way everyone things VR people are the slow ones
I type about 140 wpm and averaged on straight typing over 2000 lines per day. The hospital was outsourced and VR took over. I love VR and why do you assume that only slow typists like? I love it, our system is not crap and now I average above 500 or more lines per hour. Don’t know where people get off talking about the slow ones. You are assuming.
Because the people who manage things in health
My thoughts are, when their bad kharma finally comes back to them, I hope it really hurts. Then they'll know how it feels to be an MT.
QA discrepancy... told 2 different things by 2 different people. How would you handle this?
I am a brand new employee, so don't feel comfortable in this situation. 
TIA
Some people have said things about reliability issues. Others have said there can be problems with
.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again - animals know things people don't.

Yes, odd. But, have they ruled out other things such as a brain clot? When people die sm
in their sleep, it could be a number of things. Since it just happened, I would imagine they are running multiple tests right now.
If, and this is huge speculation...If he was on drugs before or then, then an MI is definitely possible and not unusual at this age.
why do people want to turn nice things dirty?
I am so sick of people like this that just seem to ruin everything. This is how it all starts!!!! I love that this is a place I could be with my fellow MTs since I work at home. This is like my office!!! I love that our mod is looking out for us. THANKS!!!!
What I think is so sad is that people may give up good jobs to go there to find out these things all
to late. The newbies can learn and use MQ and move on which they do but of course the clients suffer then with all the people learning on them but this is what MQ causes and when they lose clients with poor quality or people that just throw out work then they caused their own problems. You cant keep good MTs with no work I dont care what incentives you offer because they mean nothing with no work ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I wish people would understand that when MQ hires them.
Bless your heart and your sons. Some people just don't know when to NOT mess with things
Sorry you have a goof for an ex, and I hope your son's footie will be ok. Chillie
PS! Also watch out for people who leave things attached to your doorknob -
I'm sitting right here in the front room (drapes usually drawn where I sit), and I not only hear them come up to leave stuff on the door, I ALSO hear them try the knob to see if it's unlocked. Pretty darned creepy how many low-lifes and predators there are out there.....
At this point, I disagree. I have fought the 'good fight' and it is no longer
a 'good fight' at all. I know when to say when. I don't like it, but I'm not stupid either and that's not to say that you are either. Keep up your good fight, but after what I experienced first hand with our own credit agencies, I also don't see the point in wasting valuable time on an issue that is dead in the water. Offshoring is ever present, but that doesn't mean that you can't still be competitive. It is all in how you approach it. I'll allow the post to stay, but I'm not going to argue endlessly when I have made my decision that I did not come by easily. This thread is being locked.
Losing battle, Huh?
By the way, I have never even had my ears pierced, and now I'm too old to care.
ADD vs. MT - Let the Battle Begin
Have you tried setting a timer for 20-30 minutes, then giving yourself permission to get up from the desk (setting the timer again for 10 minutes or so), wander around, surf the web a little (on a different computer if you can, it will help keep the surfing bug separate from the MT'ing bug), then when the timer goes off again, go back and set it again for 20-30 minutes and start typing again?
These days, I'm working in bed from a laptop due to back and wrist issues that don't play well with conventional desks, but in some ways that actually helps keep me focused, because it's such a pain in the neck to get up and walk away... I still struggle with wanting to surf while typing though - a problem I never dreamed of having back when my shiny new computer was an IBM PS2 or something like that - where the floppy drive held less information than my cell phone does today!
Good luck!
I agree, jeez, I can't believe how quick people are to suggest quitting the minute things are bad.

I'm not in the mood to do battle with a person
who thinks they have all the answers. Suffice it to say that obviously you don't have any insight or answers or you wouldn't have issues where you sit and call all others "fools" because they don't agree with your opinions/solutions/problems. This world is just to big and interesting with so much to learn to do battle with a smug person who thinks they know it all. Simply put, carry on in your IMAGINATION that you got all of us MQMTs and we are forever conquered by your great wealth of knowledge on the proper way to post and handle MQ problems. In other words, WHATEVER floats your boat queenie.
Court battle over Internet Calls
http://www.cnn.com/2005/TECH/internet/10/26/internet.calls.wiretap.ap/index.html
For those MTs like myself who access their work over the Internet, would this consist of violating the HIPAA laws?
I agree with you, Nana. It's an uphill battle. SM
I do my part by being very lenient with the MTs when reviewing work -- i.e., I don't count off for using cc versus mL or for typing Alzheimer's instead of Alzheimer, etc. The dangerous abbreviations list is for written notes and orders on the patient's chart.
The flip side of me being lenient is when another QA person counts off for things I've been lenient on, then the MT throws a fit and says "well one QA says one thing and another QA says another."
So, there is a need for a standardized set of rules across the board that all companies should adhere to. I'm just not sure AAMT or whatever they are called now are the people for the job. It should be a committee made up of MTs and dictators.

Dana Reeves lost her battle to lung cancer.
Please keep their son, Will, in your hearts and prayers as he has had to endure so much loss in the last couple of years.
He was and is a hero to me...nm

He was a hero to me, too. nm

You are my Hero!! Thanks so much!!
I thought I was going nuts - I just always 'fall' onto that site by accident and was really panic struck when I could not find again this morning as I so badly needed!! Thank you so much!!
You are my HERO!!!!!

MY HERO TOO nm

My hero too, luv him, peace to all.

Hillary your hero?
Pervert is a pervert no matter what form of pervert you are. The thought of 2 men having sex makes me want to throw up. Kids today are taught to have no morals, and we wonder why 13 year olds are pregnant.
How do you define a Hero?
WARNING: Tissue alert, rememberance, reflection page.
There is no good place to post this, not comedy, not of true political material, just heros that need a few prayers for them and their family.

Thanks all of you for your help on this. I finally got it.
nn thanks so much.
Nagin of New Orleans, no hero
Not only did he not use school buses, and all public transportation to get his people out of the city, they did not even transport jail prisoners out of the city, they waited until the flood then opened the jails and let the prisoners out on the street. Nagin may run his mouth in public, but is no hero. He will blame anyone he can, other than himself, who is at the root of the problem. Even had the audacity to say, "because of their color". Get real. Who would have thought so may thousands of people would stay there and not evacuate? It was his job to see that people got out, and he FAILED miserably.
I don't care anymore- since my hero
Randy Johnson sold his soul to the devil I don't watch it.
Ronald Reagan, my hero. nm

FedUpMT - your're my hero!!
I'm going to copy and paste that part to QA.
I'm not surprised that the media is trying to "spin" him into a hero
but he's unqualified and unethical. The tourists that were there were able to pay him to let them out of there first, plain and simple. Once again, consider the source.
Hero my foot.
Not a hero? Surely U jest, Sharon!
He's STILL my hero. :)
Ever hear of Working Class Hero?
If that doesn't make him a hero, I don't know what does! :)
BUT, you are brilliant. Keep up the good work! You are my hero for today! 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.
RadGuy
Hey RadGuy, do you give out your email address, or do you prefer to converse thru the forum only?
Hey RadGuy, for your big sis for
Christmas, make a donation to a charity and then give her a card saying that a donation has been made in her honor. Someone in need benefits from your donation, you get a tax write-off, and no worry about the "right" gift or even having to wrap the gift.
Hey, RadGuy
Why don't you invite the family to your house on Christmas Eve for drinks, coffee, and dessert? Just call everyone and say it's just a family get together from 7 to 9 p.m. (or whatever works).
I'm the youngest of a very large family, so I know where you're coming from, but you really have to tell your sister that you don't want to celebrate Christmas her way. Just because she was born before you doesn't mean she has the right to pull your strings. Take your life back!! Esp. since she ignores you the rest of the year - it's obvious she doesn't really care about any of you.
RadGuy
You really need a new family! What a bunch of characters. Have you considered writing a book? I thought my family was nuts, but we're boring compared to yours.
Point out to David that Jesus was not married when he died at age 33. Also ask him what Saint Paul had to say when people asked him about whether it was better to be married or stay single.
RadGuy
Funny I always sort of had this feeling you were a cat man, but then you said your sister gave you catfood cans for a gift and you did not have a cat, so it is nice to know you at least once did and my hunch was right. I love cats, I hope you got yourself another one.
RadGuy & ALL
I will sincerely be thinking of you and how your making out with your dysfunctional family I would invite you to mine but it may not be much better but I am bound and determined to make it great because I have 3 new little foster kids that need a happy memory of Christmas, so were heading to KY to enjoy Christmas, let them be kids with the grandkids and start a new year and new life off hopefully. They;ll be spoiled with love and that's what Christmas is all about.
To all MT's and their families, hoping for happy times, lot's of love and a great new year.
