I've got it really bad, but mine is from the &$@#($@#
ESL dictators that also mumble.  Out of 28 reports today I've had 27 of these reports. 
Got mine on Amazon too. I've really liked it... will have to look around too then. nm

I've never used mine for anything but definitions! But

I've scheduled mine too (sm)

On my authorization letter to test it said CTMC and so I registered for test C on the Prometric site.  I paid $150 with the current discount.  Hopefully that is all that is necessary for you too.  Good luck getting it figured out and good luck on the test.  Mine is scheduled for December 11th!  :)


Well, I've never changed mine and
don't plan to, so it should always be me!
Your letter could've been mine ---
Two applications to 'brick & mortar' hosp. MT depts. that ARE HIRING, and yet no response, not even an email. I think age descrimination is playing a role here.
I've had mine since 2001 and it is the best - sm
Seeing as I spend so much time in this chair, comfort equals production. I paid $450 for it from a local Herman Miller furniture dealer. They had it as a demo during one of the office furniture shows.

It has a 12-year warranty and when I needed my hydraulic cylinder replaced, they came to my home, fixed it on site and even replaced the seat webbing so the chair was just like new once again.

For all the money I had spent in the past on chairs I had to replace once a year and sometimes more, I figured I'm getting a good return on my investment.

Check ebay or other places on the web to see if you can find it at a more reasonable price.
I've been babying mine for weeks

I just work for mine. MT is the closest I've come to SM

good return on my time, and I know that's not true for everybody.


Don't want to insult you, but -- why not just work for your money?


I've had mine on here with many kinds of software. Don't think it will be a problem. nm

I've worn mine working for a year and haven't had a problem. .sm
  I even still handle floppy disks all the time.  The magnets aren't that strong.
I was getting excited.

I was thinking you were going to say you had rubbed it all over you and it somehow helped. 


Now I'm just excited!
So many options. I'm going to look into several of these suggestions tomorrow when my mom comes up.
Just can't get excited about ....sm
some guy who doesn't wear deodorant.  I used to think he was pretty cute until he annouced that to the world.  Pretty much ruined my image of him.
I did...once...I got all excited but..sm
After years of waiting to get called, I finally did. Made arrangements with my work, took the day off. The lawyers asked a lot of questions like: Do you have any acquaintances in law enforcement, have you ever had a run in with the police, do you think you could be fair and impartial, that kind of stuff. The case was for so-called excessive use of force by the police and the guy was one of our local druggies.

Long story short...I spent 6 hours downtown at the courthouse, they needed 13 jurors, I was #14. It was interesting though, to go through the process.
Not Recruiter, Just Excited
Not a recruiter, never have been, wouldn't want to be.  Seeking honest answers for something someone with no experience things may be too good to be true.  Thank you for your opinion, though.
I must have been vewwwy excited!
x
that's okay, you are just excited and it is late--sm
and you have probably been typing all day, so the ol' fingers probably aren't working right. I wish you all the best! You are doing what I have only dreamed of my whole life! Love to write and *settled* for typing transcription. Good Luck to you!
I was excited until I realized you have to buy this..

I am so excited to see this movie.

I never saw his other 2 movies, but I am so glad he is making this, and I hope everyone will watch it. 


He mentioned on Oprah that health insurance companies are required by law to turn a profit (for the benefit of their stock holders), and in order to turn a big profit they feel they need to deny care to patients that need it.  The laws obviously need to be changed, and healthcare needs to be a right, not an outrageously expensive privilege!


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
Don't you love it when you get all excited s/m
to get a 16-minute report, and then it ends up being 2 pages long?  I was thinking, "all right! Lines!', and she spends so much time p-ing around, flipping through the chart, yawning, etc., I can practically type right along with her.  Erg.....
Mine are in year-round thank goodness! They've started their new year 2 months ago.

Don't get excited. You should have provided it to begin with. nm

Thanks so much for the info!! I am very excited about working for them:)
nm
Excited, happy, and grateful.
:)

As if a transcriptionist would be excited over making
$9.60 an hour filling out surveys when s/he could be working a real job and making at least twice that or more.
I got excited when I reached 2400 lines per day.....


and then my account decided to go overseas so now I jump around a LOT and can't get 1500 consistently, although I do TRY!


Very excited about the Sopranos coming back

Well call me silly too......because I'm excited for ya!!!! Congrats! nm

Got so excited about my fantasy, the name did not make it...Andy Garcia! nm

Curiosity piqued.....whatcha excited 'bout??? nm

Ordered one!
After doing some searching on-line, including local office stores, and E-bay, I decided on the Pearlcorder T1100 (hopefully built to withstand a little heavier use) from digitalfotoclub.com It seemed to be the best price for what I was looking for.

Thanks everyone for your feedback.
I just ordered one of those but thru AT&T - sm
Sprint did not have coverage where I am. It is enroute to me as I type.....probably have it in a few days, cannot wait!!!!! I just hope it works. Verizon offers it too. 595U AirCard/Wirelss modem. I wanted this one and not just the card since I can use it on my desktop and the laptop since it connects via the USB port and not a card slot (on laptop). I will post and let those interested know if/how it works when I get it. This is my last ditch effort to get high-speed where I am; told my neighbor I ordered it, she said you know now we will get DSL next month. Well we will see (doubt it though really). I'll worry about that when it happens!
I have not yet, but just ordered on of those MS - sm
Natural Multimedia keyboards that were being discussed here last week or so. Hard to find, but got one used at a place called Tech for Less, only $22. Shipping was $18 I think. This is a great site, great prices, ended up also buying a floppy drive I needed for my new laptop and a modem, each for $10 and brand new too. They have both new/new opened/and used. I will probably end up buying the external hard drive I have been putting off buying from them too, just need to do a little research first. But check it out, pretty cool stuff there.
Before you get too excited, most hourly QA jobs have a line count quota too.
so if you had trouble getting quota as an MT, it could be that you might not make it as a QA either.
I haven't actually ordered it yet sm

But I don't think it will be too difficult for me since I already use a split keyboard. This just means less mousing while working. I will still use my mouse when web surfing, etc. Hope you find something that works for you.


I ordered them and used them for about a week or two...sm
I had the same concern about the batteries near my brain, almost a slight buzzing when you foot is not on the pedal. I ended up calling customer service and they gladly switched them for me to the less expensive QC1 headphones. I love them.
Has anyone ordered through PCDictate?
Are they legitimate?  I would like to order a foot pedal and they seemed to have the cheapest price.  TIA.
I just ordered a gel cushion....
with a section cut out in the back for the coccyx...I sure hope it helps, by the end of the day my bum is tingling and my back aches. Anyway, if it is helpful I will post another note.
Has anyone ordered pet meds from Entirely Pets?

My dog has Cushings and is on $200.00/mo worth of meds and we are going broke between them and the $1000.00/year testing needed,  not to mention shots, etc.  We are paying about $80.00/month for one medicine.  I found it at Entirely Pets for $32.00/mo - a big savings.  The package they show is the exact same as what we get from the vet, the dosage and the # of pills is also the same.   I read the description and it doesn't say anything about it being a generic or anything else that would raise a red flag.  I checked this med at 1800PetMeds and it is $60.00/month there. 


I'm going to ask my vet tomorrow what she thinks.  I don't think she'll have a problem with me getting meds from another source but I'd like to hear feedback from an outside party too. 


Has anyone ever ordered pet meds from 1-800-petmeds.com?? sm
I have to buy heartworm/flea meds and love the Sentinol product. It is much cheaper to buy it from petmeds, but I have never shopped there or know of any one that has. Also, do you need a "Rx" from your vet to buy the med? Thanks!
Anyone ever ordered Adipex on line? (SM)

And, if so did you have any results?  I am starting Weight Watchers and exercising 3 times a week but thinking about Adipex to help control my appetite.  TIA


Anybody ordered computer from Ebay to get
I just bought new computer which has Vista on it.  Until companies upgrade to be compatible with Vista, I need a XP computer.  Just wondered if you had bought off ebay and it was a good deal.  Thanks.
Have ordered it and am waiting for its arrival.
the tutorials, I think it will work for what I do.
I ordered online, but make sure to
select a computer from the "small business" section rather than the home version and that is where I found you could select XP or Vista.

Good luck!
Would you'all mind telling me where you ordered from? sm
I plan to order mine in the next month or two and understand you can order from distributors. Of course I would like the best deal on price and shipping and want to be sure I order from a reliable source and wonder where each of you ended up buying yours. Thanks for any help!
If this was something worrisome I would think they would have already ordered a core biopsy.

My boyfriend ordered me flowers last week from....sm
1-800-flowers but they dropped the ball and still haven't delivered. They sent him an e-mail at 6:30 last night stating that they wouldn't deliver as promised yesterday and we've both had a lot of problems getting through to a "human" to get this resolved. They still haven't been delivered and it's now 1:15 p.m. the day AFTER Valentine's Day. So much for ordering ahead and paying an extra "delivery guaranteed on time" fee.
