just checked i-mail. no news. how did you get your news?
love,
frank
News flash..Don't know where you get your news, but the economy is doing very well.

My theory is no news is good news. (sm)
If there is really a problem with your transcription, then I would not worry about it. They will get to you if you screw up.
As far as policies and procedures, look in your manual. I am sure they gave you info for all of that stuff. JMO.
Speaking of Kenny Chesney, is anyone thinking what I am thinking? see message
When I hear the words, "annulment" and "fraud" in the same sentence, I can only think of one thing. Anybody else thinking the same thing?
I have good news and bad news 4U...
The good news is on Saturday, July 1 many of your least favorite residents will be "graduating." The bad news is that on the same day you'll be getting a virtual box of candy with brand new residents who have no clue how to dictate! RU excited?? ARGHHHH!!!! 
WOW, that is news. Thanks. nm

old news
This same type of e-mail has been passed around for years. It will not work. Check it out on snopes.com.
Very sad news
As hard as it is, you did the kindest thing you could. Why is it that cats want to curl up on your foot that is running the foot pedal? Or on top of your mouse? Or in front of your monitor?
You have my sympathy. Cats are people too! Sometimes my cat seems to be the only one who understands me....at least the only one who listens.
Just saw that on the news!

where on fox news?
can't find it. can you post the link? I heard "rumors" that he has already received several offers..everything from being a popular band's new lead singer to solo recording deals. I hope to hear more from him soon. I really enjoyed his perfomances.
This is old news. sm
I can't even remember the name right now (not memorable anyway), but as I recall "Medical Transcripton" no longer appear in the name. Someone please correct me if I am wrong. 
Could be bad news
If you have been out of work for 9-10 months for the past couple of year you might not be eligible for unemployment as you have to work so much in the past 5 quartes - 2005 to 2006 to be eligible. And if you did not make much, then your benefit will be very little and yout IC could set off that. You can look a lot of this up on your state's page. They usually list what qualifies for it and what does not. But good luck. We all need help at one time or another and that is what it is there for. I am more for you getting unemployment than an illegal coming into the states and having a surgery that I could not afford and we as tax payers pay for it. Know that opens up another bucker of worms but that is my feeling.
bad news ....
I was quite excited about your suggestion. I talked with my daughter - that is out of my son's area of expertise. She works with software. She said it would have to be piggy backed onto the transcription software. I don't think companies would allow that. I also thought about having a little gold coin dropping into a bucket on the screen after every line but she said same thing, piggy back. Oh well, back to my footpedal idea.
FOX has *nothing* to do with NEWS nm
no message (much like FOX, except for their messages of hate and intolerance).
that is old news - nothing new -
Philips is interested in selling their holdings in MQ. Nothing has been announced further. No mention of impending or imminent sale but we know the possibility exists.
News
No, that doesn't necessarily mean bad news for you. It could just be that they are going to make a decision from the people they've already interviewed and are no longer accepting apps for the position. It could also mean that the post expired. Relax. If you get it, you get it. If not, it wasn't meant for you so keep moving.
some time ago on the news...
natalee's mother had a "meeting" with the mother of one of the accused. it was after they had that discussion that natalee's mother started saying they were guilty. who knows what was discussed between the two moms, but it surely started something.
I've been watching the news but
haven't heard if anyone is claiming responsibility? On a different note, I was just telling a friend yesterday that before 9-11 I heard that the biggest thing on the news was shark attacks. Hoped it wasn't an omen.
I just assumed it was old news
I was aware of the other lawsuits, 4 in all I think.
Go to CNN.com for all of your news updates.
I also get my local newspaper online free. Why pay and kill trees when the highlights are all on the internet?
Watching the news
My heart goes out to those who are homeless, jobless, lost everything in their lives, many including loved ones. I have come to appreciate my family, job and home so much in the last few days. I stopped to get gas today, only needed 1/2 tank and it ended up costing $25, went up 35 cents since yesterday. Somehow this is very scary, nearly everything we have comes through the trucking industry. The ramifications of this will be far reaching, everything will go up......well, everything but an MTs pay, but hey, I have a job and I don't need to get in my car to do it.
Don't believe the news media (sm)
You are so right. Everything is going up but our wages and it's happening all over. It is time for everyone to get their finances in order. We are all going to have to tighten our belts and get our finances in order and get rid of credit cards! 
According to who...Faux News?
Great news!!! (sm)
Have another question for you...just curious here...am I talking to Sandy Hames who used to work for YOG??? This is JoAnn (formerly Volgstadt)...aka Hummingbird from the Friendship Board. If the vibe I'm getting is wrong, then disregard what I just said ;-)
Did you see the news tonight?
Hundreds of children were killed, thousands and thousands have died in total they say. I am the mother of three children and watching those pictures on TV of those little lives lost is very disturbing, extremely saddening, and is a very emotional thing to watch or to try to even understand the magnitude of such losses for everyone involved or to make any sense of it all.
If you, by reading my post, misunderstood my post, I wholeheartedly appologize. It was not my intention to have a "hidden agenda" in my post. It was merely a question.
Commie news?
Well my dear, it was different back in the 50s, obviously which you know nothing about. The world is a different place today and yes my parents followed the Catholic region to a T not that I agree it. I didn't say they couldn't provide, they provided 7 kids with good educations and values (even though mine may be questioned on here, which I don't mind), and at the time when my dad was working his tail off for John Deere, those people in those days in the 20s did not believe in putting their money in stocks because of the year of 1929 if you even know what happened in that year. We did live in a house that my parents bought. I did not say we were not provided for, I said we had everything we needed, nothing more. Well you must certainly be naive to think that Mr. Bush is a good president. Have you lost any people/friends in a war that was uncalled for. Talk to a Viet Nam Vet and see what they have to say. I have 3 brothers who all served our country. I don't know where you live, but go to the Walter Reed Hospital and see the men there. You might get an education. Bush lies to us and if you can't see it, you better take your blinders off. I hope you don't have kids old enough to have to serve in a war. God help you if you do.
Good news - thanks
:)
They just did a breaking news bit on it..
they started saying 8yr old..now claiming it's a 15yr old that was shot and taken to the hospital. I imagine alot of details will be sketchy until they have more time. Again...God bless to all of you
Rudd, do you have any news yet? nm

News flash everybody!! - sm
After a nasty argument with ex H over his lack of interest in our daughter for the past 15 years, he informs me that I won't have a job in 3 years due to voice recognition taking over. Yikes, where do I turn now? And, since she will be 18 then, he is done financially. Well, jeeze, since he hasn't been there emotionally for the past 15 years, he might as well stop paying his lousy $150/month. I'm ticked off and laughing at the same time. Just venting over the fact that ex idiot is taking pleasure in the thought that he thinks he knows something I don't know.   Obviously he has been doing some reasearch or how would he even know what voice recognition is? Please excuse my very angry rant! I'm going to take a deep breath and try to forget the whole ugly conversation.
News flash....
Why listen to the rantings of a man who thinks his own daughter is only worth $37.50 a week?
He may or may not research, but there is enough talk about Voice Recognition on TV and radio talk shows that he may have heard it mentioned there.
Please don't let his pettiness ruin your peace of mind.
Melatonin on the News
I'm really glad that melatonin is working for you. However, there was something on the news last night that studies have shown that melatonin is of no use in treating insomnia.
But, whatever works for you.....that's great. 
Good news! sm
She wrote back about 2:30 and agreed to 8 CPL. Very happy. I know it's hard out there, as I was an MTSO. Very happy she could do it.
Wow!!!!!!!! GREAT NEWS!!!!
I think you have just solved a HUGE problem!!!
I hope that everybody reads this, because this is BIG!!!
I'll post how this goes after I try it.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is wonderful news.
Not only will you be making more money but you will be able to avoid the sometimes heavy hand of management which can be humiliating in certain ways, for me anyway.
I would suggest you find out the answer and then ask the hospital what their budget allows for transcription and come to a happy meeting place.
I say this because I am an IC for a clinic and one physician I type for was approached by finance dept for having too high of a bill with dictation services. They then had to begin using their templates for his routine and commonly used dictation which I am not paid for.
This all happened after someone in their payroll dept made a mistake and overpaid me, which I caught and immediately brought to their attention, but it was too late.
Please let us know if you would what the nationals are charging the hospitals, the usual and customary fee average. I heard it was 25 cents a line several years ago but this obviously has changed.
Congratulations to you!
That's wonderful news!
You'll be happy as a bug in a rug then to know that MT/OP Girls' looking for a job with a company who's willing to pay her above average line rates. Since you have no problem with that, what in the world are you waiting for? Strike while the iron's hot girlfriend! Contact her and offer her the job!! And dont' use the old excuse, "We currently have no openings" either because clearly, you sound like a Fortune 500 kinda' operation who's got doctors coming out of the wood work all over the world, willing to pay you ANY amount you name just for the opportunity to have YOUR organization type their patients' notes. 
good news
Glad to hear there are so many still trying to steer their kids in the right direction. I've been wondering have all the parents gone mad. Around here there seems to be a very few who take the time to know what their kids are doing. What really blows my mind is those parents who know and dont' do anything about it--or worse, encourage it. Let's hear it for the strict moms! Whoo-hoo!
SAW ON FOX NEWS SAID IT WAS A MISTAKE
They said Ryan gave a number said to be Chris's, but actually when people called in it was the voting number for the girl!!!! Everyone should hound the Idol website!!! I knew something had to be wrong!!
Saw on the news last night
That companies are now recruiting American college grads to go over to India and work for the same pay. The students that have agreed to go overseas and work for a cheaper rate say they feel it is necessary in order to get job experience so they will be more competitive. Did anyone else hear/see this report?
wonderful news!!!
nm
I didn't see it, but what news
channel was it on? Maybe the story is online somewhere? I would would be interested in seeing that.
That is wonderful news!
I have a good friend fighting brain cancer (she has 2 young children). I can only imagine the ups and downs you have gone through with your daughter's illness. I sincerely hope she continues to have good checkups and will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers, Laura E.
Great news!
Where are some good places to apply? I am currently looking as well.
Good news
I will be starting back on my old position in the next few weeks. Whew! Big relief! Thanks for all the replies
Just good news
Just heard on the TV where a teacher got choked on a salad at school. The only person around her was an 11 year old student of hers who asked if she was alright, she told him no and he immediately got behind her to do the Heimlich maneuver and dislodged the stuck food. Now get this, he said it must have been intervention from above- he did not know the name of what he did, had never even seen it performed and basically he said just had to move and move quick to try to help her. Is that not a good story??
GOOD NEWS
What a good story - thanks for sharing.
This was all over the news weeks before it
appeared on SNL's "weekend update". I doubt it was leaked by any medical professional, more likely the boy's family told the story to (?) and it ended up on the news. Not funny to the kid, of course, but still pretty sensational and newsworthy, if not just a bit funny (and CREEPY!)
Many years ago I had a co-worker who woke up in the middle of the night to a fluttering sound in her ears, and it was literally driving her crazy as her daughter took her to the ER. Turned out it was a tiny insect of some sort.
Good news. Woo hoo!

Forgive me if this is old news.
Came across this article tonight; while it comes to no conclusions, it's interesting nonetheless. Especially where an executive from a national MT company calls his at-home MTs "overpaid housewives."

Good News
My mammogram came back normal! I am so relieved. I want to thank those of you who responded and provided caring and encouragement to me. I really appreciate it and I also appreciate having this place to come to that is full of people who understand all about being an at home medical transcriptionist.
