In Reply to: Wow! Aren't you helpful? - Geez
Can't you figure out the rest by yourself? Obvious not! The rest depends on the Window system, do you get it?
And I was not talking to you!
You know what you are? Two things: One is lazy, the other starts with s and ends with d, that's you!

Yep, handed to them on a silver platter while most of us
nm
No, I expect nothing on a silver platter.
However, I would expect a response to a request for help to be helpful. Otherwise it is a waste of time for the OP, for other people who read here, and for you.
Based on this post and your others in this thread, I think you are the one that does not get it.
I call for Amanda's head on a platter!
 Just kidding! Geez, people! Amanda tries a little experiment and shares who results with his and people start jumping on her like a pack of lions on a zebra (okay, I watch too much animal planet).
She makes a very valid point and obviously has hit very close to home for a lot of MTs judging by the tone of the posts below. Be honest, people! None of produce near where we would be producing if we were in the office. In the office, there are no husbands bothering us every five minutes, no kids wanting mommy to do something they are capable of doing themselves, no phone calls from mom or sis to fill us in on the latest gossip.
All Amanda is alluding to is we should all take a little responsibility for our careers and our paycheck. What's wrong with that? Sure, sometimes the deck is stacked against us and we aren't being paid what we are worth and the dictators mostly suck. But a lot of the time, we get interrupted, piddle on the internet, and I myself will get distracted in a good game of Solitaire!
So instead of jumping all over Amanda, take a good long look in the mirror and just accept a little, tiny bit of responsibility for your paltry paycheck.
yes, i served.
It definitely gave me a whole new perspective on the process. I am a person who is strong on principals and was disturbed by how "soft" many jurors were. Also disturbed that the judge refused to provide further information asked for. It was what should probably have been a short 1-2 day case, but it took 5. Can only imagine the stress involved in a serious case. I would do it again, but out of a sense of duty, as it certainly was not fun.
Have you been served with papers
If you were served with papers, I would definitely seek the aid of an attorney. If not, then don't worry. If someone else you know has, the best advice to give is to see an attorney for legal advice as we are not attorneys. She might be doing this so she doesn't have to pay the back due wages. Go onto People's Court. Good luck. But if you have been served papers, don't wait do something about it.
I served it with biscuits and veggies.
Made the broth gravy and so it went well with the biscuits.
.....served up in a dirty ashtray....
When someone says the pie you served is "exquisite" and in my mind
I briefly think that is a bad thing.
When I first started in this field and heard that word used to descirbe pain....it blew me away. (Still cannot understand the concpt of exquisite pain!! )
A party is about getting together, not what food is served! :-)
I say to make whatever food you feel comfortable with and encourage others to bring covered dishes to add variety. I have found those types of get togethers the most fun. Easy food, music, pool, games for the kids, whatever. Good luck! :-)
The silver lining to that statement is -(sm)
that Microsoft said it, so it's headline news. It draws the nation's attention to the problem. If one of our MT companies made that statement, even to the media, no one would notice. Companies all across the U.S. need to be given financial incentives NOT to offshore (such as fines, taxes, etc.) and incentives for keeping their paychecks in America.
Maybe national attention to the selfish practice of cutting U.S. jobs to send them offshore will help us draw attention to our own situation.
The silver lining about the snippy ads is it saves us
or even worse, working for them. Although they're shooting themselves in the foot, those kind of ads are doing US a favor. ;)
Sterling Silver and Niobium mainly, some gold -- mainly earrings....
but I want to get back into it, more in silver though as niobium was more of a fad, but I do like to mix the 2 for the contrast and color. That is probably what I will concentrate on, that and hand made chains (complex but I enjoy doing them a lot). If my husband made 10-15K more a year I could probably concentrate on it FT....but he is already at the cap pretty much for his job, so now IF he gets a raise its basically just cost of living. His company sucks for raises, does not give on merit, just gives everyone the same regardless of how good or bad they are at their job (service engineer for electron microscopes). Well maybe in 5-7 years when the mortgage is paid off .......
Silver Lining: I ran out of money and I'm smoke free
six days with no smokes...also, lost about ten pounds on an involuntary diet. It's amazing what you can cut out when you're broke...
A really pretty silver picture frame. Its so nice!

Just bought a 2006 convertible BMW - Silver. Love it. nm

Fried tofu, stir-fry veggies, served on bed of kale. NM
.
Roasted parmesian garlic sauce over grilled chicken served on bed of vermicelli, green salad
with all the fixins including home-made croutons with garlic and homestyle ranch dressing with sweet tea! YUM!
Ah geez (sm)
Well, that's what I get for trying to insert my own images Just use your imagination. *sigh*
Geez
By saying it was the way they talk I meant with an accent on the word as not all doctors say it that way. I was just trying to help and gave more information than some and do not appreciate the way people are sometimes treated on here.
to oh geez
Here here sister!!!!
Geez, the pay keeps going down. SM
Just saw an ad on the MT Jobs board for an experienced Transcriptionist (of course, they want the best) and the pay is 8 cpl for a 75 character line. What's with these companies?
geez
get a life. don't you have some work to do, or something?
Um, geez
I authored the message you responded to, and nowhere did I mention a personal preference for healthcare in Canada, or any other country for that matter. Yes, I posted a list from WHO that ranks healthcare among participating countries. Yes, Canada is on that list, but was the furthest thing from my mind when I copied and pasted that list into my post. Honestly, I don't find 30th place to be notably better than 37th place.
That said, I would love to visit Canada some day, but for healthcare I would seriously consider France (if it were an option for me, which it is not . . . nor is it necessary at this stage of the game).
Now, I have a question for you . . . How would you like to die, or even JUST suffer in pain, on the floor of the ER floor while a janitor mops around you (saw the video of that with my own eyes) and while two people have to call 911 in a futile attempt to save your life because nobody in the ER will care for you?
Oh geez, she's at it again.
GEEZ
what the heck is wrong with you? If she is an IC she is not cheating or scamming. And even if she is an employee, how would that be scamming and cheating. Did she says she is falsifying records? You have absolutely no information to base these accusations on. Man, talk about jumping to conclusions! 
OH GEEZ
lEgitimate oh so sorry. Please, please, review all my other posts. God knows I should not err.
The problem with these boards is that someone wants to discuss something and someone else just wants to nitpick.
Geez, here we go! nm

oh geez....
We had a doc that when he said right colectomy, it sounded just like rectalectomy. If I was daydreaming I would transcribe rectalectomy but would always catch myself...except for once. I got his DS when he dictated it and he said "procedures done....rectalectomy...what the heck is that?" I knew I had made the mistake. To my knowledge, he never sent it back because I never heard about it. He must have just written through it. I could have just died!!
geez
Haaaaaa. Just awful. I had one where VR picked up: The patient's blood pressure is at SCHOOL today.
Should have been: The patient's blood pressure is at GOAL today.
LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
I meant the other way around! GEEZ
geez, you seem so hostile!
Geez, sounds like just about everyone I know!
Oh, geez! Too funny!
My house has a shortage of coffee filters all the time, so I never use those. I like that Homestyle microwave popcorn made with real butter, but my fingers get so greasy that I have to keep a wet washcloth on the desk to wipe it off between typing. I'm going to have to try your idea, though.
geez louise
If you're doing all that and with two jobs, I have a couple questions for you. How the heck do you do it? Whats your secret? Do you get hand and arm pain whatsover??? You're doing a lot of lines. How do you do it?
Geez, I'm sorry this offends you. I have,
Too bad I can't give you one for a shrink...sounds like you need it.
Geez, I fit the experience she needs, but
she sounds too demanding and high maintenance. Evenings and weekends, no thanks!!! I want this, I don't have time for that, no phone calls, need ASAP. No MT experience required and no offer of line rate.
Geez, come on. I saw all of the OSi posts,
Yes, somebody is sticking up for OSi all over the place. However, I don't know what is so "transparent." Somebody asked a question directly related to Smartype. I use Smartype and I work for OSi, and my Smartype works fine in Extext. For what it's worth, I post here on these boards about 5 times a week, sometimes on the word board, sometimes on the company board. I check in when I'm eating lunch or taking a break. I don't waste my time reading and posting all day long. I just get tired of never even being able to answer someone's question. What's with that?
Geez, RAD GUY, got my hopes up there - sm
thought is something new on the market to replace Viagra!!!
Geez!! Take a note of the pay.
http://seattle.craigslist.org/hea/122382546.html
Isn't being a medical Transcriptionist being an interpreter. Seems like our pay ought to be commensurate, don't you think?
Absolutely not, never. Geez. nm
.
They pay $20,000? Geez...that would tempt me!
Yeah, I think it is funny how they will pair one very conservative family with a very liberal family, or a hunter with a strictly veggie family. People would not want to watch as much if it went all smooth, human nature.
What did the other family think about how they were portrayed, or did you even have the chance to find out?
geez, do you have a family?
How bout kids? Spouse? I don't think your *work ethic is above* most peoples, just seems that maybe you don't have a life...might want to try one before it's too late! 
And "harrumph!" to you, too! Geez....
.
Geez this gets me excited!
I just ordered this program yesterday and am SO anxious for it to arrive. I have been an MT for about 4 months using only the Expander build into Inscribe. I have a feeling my whole world is about to change. THANKS for all the participation on this thread
ah, geez, Edith.
nm
geez, you guys.
You will find that everywhere you go with every job. Where there is a group of women working together, you will have all of that crap. It's the way of the world!
geez louise, where are you from emt?
hope you're not an MT.
blame the victim, geez
You people crack me up. Blame the victim and her family. For pete sake. You sound like the type of person who would blame a rape victim cause she was wearing a short skirt. The Aruban Govt thinks that boy is guilty, that is why they are holding him. He is guilty, IMHO. His story has changed several times. If you are innocent, you have one story. He left her on the beach, come on, who would leave a young girl, not familiar with the area, on a beach at 2-3 in the morning? The person at fault? The person who murdered her or kidnapped her and I think it is that obviously well off son of a high ranking lawyer. Instead of pointing fingers at her family, we should be sending prayers and hope.
blame the victim, geez
Sorry, but if you dont' want to get picked up and treated as such, don't go to places like that p. e. r. i. o. d. And yes, some women ask for it maybe not intentionally, but it happens. People need to start taking reponsibility for their stupid decisions.
Geez, at least give her credit for trying. At least, sm
if didn't work out and she had to go inhouse, at least she could say she tried. No harm in that, at least that is my opinion.
You really need to get a life. Geez, you even managed to
troll a fun poll post. Sounds like a personality disorder to me. Maybe you're the one who needs a romantic outlet. Gotta rain on everyone else's parade because you're so miserable.
