In Reply to: Focus Infomatics Job Posting - Concerned MT
this board started letting everyone post job openings, at least to what I can remember. I know at one point if they were India-based/affiliated etc..then they could not advertise but since anymore it is so rampant with companies being associated with India, they started letting them post. I could be wrong but this is what I recall.

A couple of times a year the suits post as
an MT. I used to work for SS and they were so bad that I can't imagine them fixing all the problems in my lifetime.
There was no announcement of this policy change? Sounds like it's time to go. nm

After living thru 3 hurricanes last year, including Tropical Storm Bonnie, EVERYONE
coastal or inland,and 50 miles east or west,should be prepared - no matter how far inland you live. Check out www.themountaineer.com to see the pics on the flooding that happened in the mountains of N.C. from the remnants. In Jacksonville,FL we first received a large tornado from T.S.Bonnie,which was nowhere near us,and it was downhill from there. After Charlie, we got our power and phone back 2 days before Frances came and knocked them out again. When the meat began to defrost, we fired up the grill and cooked everything and invited the entire neighborhood. Everyone brought something to contribute, whether it was canned beans or Twinkies. After having to evacuate for Hurricane Floyd a few years ago, I am,and will always be,prepared. You don't have to have a lot of money to prepare. When hurricane season gets close, purchase a couple extra cans of food everytime you go shopping and SET THEM ASIDE. Save and clean your milk jugs or even the plastic soda bottles. FEMA cannot always get there immediately,especially when there is extensive damage. I was a claims adjuster during Hurricane Andrew. There was debris, damaged vehicles,trees and powerlines everywhere. It took us over 4 hours to go less than 10 miles. Imagine what FEMA had to deal with to get their big trucks in. There is absolutely NO REASON for ANYONE in Florida or the other gulf states (that's right - STATES - not just the coast)not to be prepared when hurricane season starts. Do not wait until a storm is expected to strike your area in 2 days. Florida is one of the most prepared states in the hurricane zones and look at the trouble they are having. The government is there to help provide with immediate necessities - not to rebuild your life. That is up to you.
don't do annual but do big trips every few years. Last year went to Africa including safari
spent 18 days - one day traveling there, (stopping in for a day in London), then two weeks working at an orphanage and girls vocational school, safari on the weekend, then two days of travel back. Whew!
Signed! You should post this on all boards, including Medquist, where I'm sure a lot would sign

try perennial rhinitis, as in only certain times of the year
might check spelling, I think it's perennial
Task bar. I do this by accident a couple of times a year
and I fix it, but can't figure out what I've done to fix it.
I have my task bar at the bottom of my screen usually, but now it is on the far right and I can't figure out how to get it back on the bottom. I know you normally click and drag, but I can't get it do down, just side to side. I even push the down arrow but that doesn't seem to do it either.
Yes, I tried to post same last night about 10 times, and it won't let me post.
I used to breed lab puppies (please no activist flames)! I had a champion female white Canadian lab, and people would be on a list for years if by chance I bred her, which I did twice, and so that I could continue her line. Anyhow, she's my sweet Skye who passed away 2 months ago? At any rate, we had the same problems with kids in the "hood" who wanted to come over and play once the puppies were old enough to be exercised daily and played with. At first I thought, how cute, right? Puppies and little kids - what better picture! Well, the majority of kids were adorable, but there were always 1 or 2 sick ones who would smack the pups, smash and hold their heads in the dirt (a real common thing, but I don't know why - psychiatrist anyone). At any rate, I finally had to ban the whole group due to the 1 or 2 creeps, had to call the police, the whole 9 yards, and that's EXACTLY what the police officer told me - next thing is there will be poison meat or a donut in the yard. He told me to always go out and patrol my yard, especially alone the fence line every day before I let the dogs out, particularly at night. I went out with a flashlight. It was about a month later, but sure enough - poison meat. Because there were so many kids involved, we obviously couldn't pin point the exact family, but the police went and read the riot act to them all. It would stop and not happen again for a year or so, but every now and again we would find something. My dogs were NEVER out and barking, so it was nothing like that - it was just over the puppies and the cruel kids.... Not trying to freak you, but that's the way these kids and their families are. You can really judge someone's character by ill treatment of a PUPPY, of all things. And the parents?? They sound whacked. Please be careful.
Just 1 in 1 year. No plans to change in the near future.
but don't worry - next year BOS will more than likely change it back! nm

Funny thing I see the same errors repeated for over a year now of training no matter how many times
you correct it. I think you had better get your facts straight HON.
Tried to post 3 times yesterday and kept getting
an error.
I was going to suggest knitting/crochet. It is all the rage these days and they have lots of groups that get together in various locations to knit and chat, sip coffee, etc.
I have a book called Teach Yourself Visually Knitting & Crocheting - I got it at B&N for about $25.00. Wonderful book. I have been knitting for a year but whenever I need help on a new technique or can't remember something I pull it out. It has actual photos of how to do the stitches instead of a B&W drawing, that a lot of books have. I'm sure you could find the book cheaper on-line. If she would like to take lessons it seems everyone is offering them these days and in the groups there is always someone willing to help out when needed.
You can get a skein of yarn and some needles for about $10.00 or less. Hobby Lobby has sales all the time.
Knitting can evolve into spinning and dyeing too. I haven't done either yet, but hope to learn both.
There are thousands of patterns you can get on-line for free, though if she develops a yarn fetish it can get quite expensive.
Two times mine didn't......but I think I saw a post

I don't change the rules per post.
I've removed the name as we have policies for a reason. If I allow one person to bend the rules, then I have to allow everyone to.

I hear that; we had tapes broken several times where silly office people had put post-it notes on th
In retrospect, it was nearly laughable.
Sorry, that is not uncommon at this time of year. Post SM
office employees get greedy.
Thanks for this post. Glad that you are doing well, and hopefully the next year will treat you even
better. Blessings!
I had a doc say that the patient is a 95-year-old post menopausal woman..

Fine. Be sure to post back here in a year and tell me about her at-home job. nm

I used "normal" multiple times only because the post I responded to used "normal" as the
By normal I meant NOT sexually perverted, NOT socially inept, NOT desperate, etc.
I also posted later that maybe I misunderstood what the original poster was talking about. I originally thought she meant internet dating in general, but now it seems more like she means married men looking for "friends" online, which is totally different and not at all anything I have any knowledge of.
I have no idea, though, what your comment about "DC" is regarding. I didn't say anything at all about a "DC."
Amen.... Gravity is definitely working on my 45-year-old, post breastfeeding mammaries.

Even 4.5 is too low. doctors do not change - they still hem and haw, change, change stuff along wit
It is just not enough for the work. Speech is great on the wrists but you are not just reading what is typed, you are making a lot of changes. I have a hard time doubling a lot of days with all the changes I have to make. Just my opinion.
Don't change. I had to change back to cable. SuddenLink DSL stinks! nm

Change provider vs change to business plan
In your place, I would seriously consider changing providers if there were others available in your area, but I'd ask around about their service quality first. It may not be any better. If there are no other providers, then consider changing your service package to a business account rather than residential. They're usually more expensive, but they also tend to get faster service if there's a problem.
Last summer, I had no electricity for 3 days due to severe storms, but there were some 600,000 in the same boat with me. We just had to wait it out. It's a downside of working at home.
change attitude, change life
The first thing you need to change is that defeatist attitude! I know that's hard at times like this, but that's when you need to most.
I won't go into detail, but my financial situation is also at an all-time low, we couldn't even exchange gifts., daughter in hospital twice, & no med insurance)..but then I heard about how much worse things were for others around me this season. Now I'm thankful instead!
Policy (SM)
There is policy about this.
Please write the Administrator about this (admin@mtstars.com).
Goldbird
I think the policy is
as long as they have an American office (storefront) they are still considered American and they do not allow offshore MT's to post resumes - but that is an I think.
If only this policy was followed with consistency, now that would be new!

It seems like you have to ask the company what their policy is (nm)

you may have been sold that policy
it doesn't mean you could have collected on it.
Yes, came from hosp. If was co. policy, they

Check the policy. It says......
unlimited long distance, person to person, then you will get busted. It may take a little while but they'll get you. I learned the hard way. I used Vonage and it worked great.
Honesty best policy
I don't think it would reflect badly on your son if you're just honest with the person who hired you about not being able to be on your feet for so long. I would suggest telling him/her that you didn't realize how difficult it would be to be on your feet for so many hours and that you've made a mistake. I think everything should work out just fine in the end :)
If it is your company policy, then you have
to do it. I would keep track of it though, check for errors, etc.
Not if you have a company policy
You are right, it is not the norm at first, but including myself and many others that I know
personally, we do make around 100 or more per day working for a national. It is very possible! You just gottah look.
I still don't understand how someone can have so many years experience, be on the same system, and make less than 175 lines per hour. I don't understand.
Maybe they are not typing fast enough or know enough terms, is all I can think of.
I've switched jobs in the past few months and started off slow, but now up to approximately 200 lph - came from a job where I did 350 lph on WP5.1 and now on an internet platform. I don't kill myself everyday working either.
it usually is......including lottery...sm
one has a better chance of getting hit by lightning than winning a lottery...any lottery.....there is a 1 in 14 million chance of winning THE lottery....and a much smaller chance of getting hit by lightning, at least in Florida....*lol*
I personally know of about 5 or 6, including myself, although I'm sure there are more out there..
....but probably not a LOT more! 8-)

Including, unfortunately, our government. nm
xx
I am not understanding- is that including
our changing, adding, etc. to get the finished report? in other words - if a VR report starts at 87 before our editing, and we have to put in say 3 extra lines, does it still stay at 87 when all is finished? Thanks.
I never said it was an insurance policy. Are there not programs set
up for a reason? Is there no government assistance programs set up so that people can get help momentarily when they need it? I am not talking about depending on it. I am talking about OUR tax dollars going back to us during a time of legitimate NEED, not out of laziness. Do you think they are better spent in Iraq or a lot of other bull crap spending that is done on people not in our own country? We pay for this! No we don't have to expect our government to help us in times of need. Move to freaking Africa. Those views would fit in real good over there. I hope your kids go to private school. Wouldn't want the government taking OUR earned money and spending it back on us.
Deletions are made according to policy. (SM)
If you have a complaint about a post, take it to the Monitor board.
Goldbird
You'd be better off getting a private policy. Premiums are
cheaper, though still expensive, and you don't have to worry about insurance if you make a job change. Shop around, should be able to get a family policy for about $400.00/mo.
Or try to get the kids a separate policy

Fair Access policy
I have DW7000 professional and even with the extra download and upload capability they will still shut me down if I go over their limit. Also I am on SatMex and have had occasional trouble as long as I have had the system. Sometimes I just want to run over the dish and modem with my Jeep!!
I would read your health ins. policy
My husband's policy specifically states that even if a married couple get separated the spouse no longer has insurance coverage! The coverage definitely stops, on my husband's policy, when a divorce is final.
I would want to read a copy of the health ins. policy for sure. Just my 2 cents. :)
Each company has their own policy for how they handle it.
I only worked for one company that deducted and that was YOG. There is no industry standard, at least that I am aware of. I'm going on 6 years at my current company and have never had a deduct.
That depends on the company's policy.
Each company defines it's own policy. Most all do pay it out but since offering paid time off is not mandatory by any federal or state government, there is no mandate that a company HAS to pay out any accrued but unused paid time off.
Your Human Resources or Benefits Department will be able to direct you to the policies that govern this for your employer.
Ex-HR'r
Official policy puts it best . . .
from the 2002 AAMT Book of Style:
"Obscenities, profanities, and vulgarities do not belong in a patient's record unless they are part of direct quotations that are essential to a report."
In 20+ years of transcribing, mostly psychiatry, with, as one might imagine, a lot of profanity, I've always just typed whatever the clinician quoted the patient as saying, and have never had a complaint.
Good luck,
CTT
Advertising policy of MTStars...
Many of you haven't noticed Advertising policy of MTStars lately.
http://www.mtstars.com/advertising.htm
No more sponsorships from MTSOs etc. The truth is being spoken on these boards and it always hurts. You can't remain sober if betrayed by some company or individual. You would have been speaking the same way if you were in their shoes.
I love MTStars for being unbiased (what people say nastiness). It's not like MTChat or MTDaily etc., where the posts are deleted and board owners are instructed to keep their & posters mouths shut for annual sponsorship of $500 by MTSOs.
