At least I know enough to offer to make my husband a sandwich when he's looking through the new truck section in the paper.
Works every time.

You are SO RIGHT!! Figured that
out awhile ago. Garbage in, garbage out! I make 7 cpl and don't have all day...
figured it out
geez -- I had to go to the second option but was in a PANIC -- thanks for your help didnt see the little backwards P symbol but did go into tools and figured it out 
The way I figured it out (sm)
One of the MTSOs I worked for wanted perfect everything. Then we were to look up all names since we were never given spelling and this took an extremely long time. Then the MTSO threatened to not pay us if we didn't look up the names.
Simply put, I decided it wasn't worth my time and quit.
Right, that's what I do, it's a game!
They seem to be trained to speed-speak anyway, so why not join in on the fun!
That's what I figured. Thanks! (nm)

I figured it out. *nm*

This is not a game.
If there really is an error on page 50, please let me know where it is, and I will mark my book accordingly, so I don't have to cross-reference every term on that page wiith Stedman's until I find it. To me this is neither fun nor funny. I only type one specialty and there are many terms obsscure enough to me that I won't automatically spot them as a typo.
i figured as much
I've just been switched to another account to help out another transcription service - which was an account that I understood to be solely an account of the company I work for now - so they are either losing it or they never had the entire account to begin with. this MTing after 15 years is driving me crazy - i think it may be time to move on.
I figured it out!!! sm
For some reason unknown to me, my husband was messing around on my computer last night and turned ON the User Account Control. I have told him many, many, many times that this feature needs to be OFF in order for me to do my job. He always listens so well! I will be placing a lock on the door to this room and he will not be allowed in here anymore.
I figured it out. Thanks anyway!
I figured that one out before
I read your post. Dah!!! Oh well, we are all entitled to a brain holiday, right?
I figured it out...
The NCH website has converter software that I downloaded. Works great. thanks to all who helped.
I figured it was the same because I am
able to read between the lines and saw on the Main and the Company posting the same time. People are running scared from VR and thus the question above which I consider legit.
Pooling--how is this figured out?
Day to day how to companies/managers figure out what pool to put you into?
Surprised you just figured this out.
Not trying to be nasty or anything, I just thought it has been broadcast so many times. The people of means (AKA - the ones who worked) left the city when the evacuation order went out. The others had to stay there and rely on the mayor who would not take them out in school buses, he wanted air conditioned Greyhounds. Please, give me a break. His head ought to roll with Michael Brown's, AND the governor's.
Yep, except the game with Bill
was minus the odor and the little white crabs marching around the stogie.
i've figured it out myself :-)
:-)
never mind figured out.
Game ideas
At one party for my daughter, I wrapped up a small, age-appropriate gift in several (maybe 5-7, I don't remember) layers of wrapping paper. Then the girls sat in a circle and passed the present around to music. When the music stopped, whoever was holding the gift got to remove 1 layer of paper. The one who took of the last layer of paper, got the gift.
Also, our youth group had a balloon tower contest. Each team had a bunch of balloons and several rolls of clear tape. Then they had 10 minutes to blow up the balloons and build a tower using the tape. Whoever built the biggest tower won. Of course, we had some older kids in the youth group. Younger kids might have trouble tying the balloons.
I figured doing this for 10+ years I could
Sidestep into an editing position for a magazine or something similar, since the MT business seems to be going downhill, and also since I do write as a hobby. I have short stories, journals, poetry, but all personal things, I don't know if that could be a part of my resume or not. There are many positions out there, you'd be surprised. Also the pay is great to start for an editor. You do have a point about degrees. I think kids are pushed into college at an early age, not experiencing life or knowing what they want, and end up spending thousands on a degree in which they do not pursue or are unhappy in. I have an aquaintance who went to school and got a degree in social work and she is now an accountant. Seems like a waste of mom and dads money. I'm glad I waited to go get my degree even though its really hard going to school at my age, but there is no doubt in my mind that a psych degree is right for me.
I figured you must be worried....sm
I know you're worried and I don't even know you. However, knowing insurance, if you go before the insurance kicks in, they (the insurance after it kicks in) will see this as a preexisting condition and may not cover future treatment. IF you can wait 12 days (because even if it was serious, and it may not be serious, 12 days won't make any difference, outside of possibly allaying your fears). 12 days will gallop by!!! I feel bad for you because you're anxious and I'm the same way about these things. Hope you do well !!!!!
never mind, got it figured out! nm

I figured Cirie would go far-sm
I like seeing someone who is not terribly athletic be in the final 2. Terry is competetive and athletic but his sensitivity chip is absent. Shane was a character and made it interesting to watch. Loved seeing him with his son. They'll be fine. Why hasn't Aras stepped up and won any challenges? Strategy? Or just not capable?
Need is not a factor in this game. (see m)
There is absolutely no point to having a game at all if you are going to give the money to whoever "needs" it.
It's a competition, pure and simple. Sometimes wealthier people are wealthier for a reason: they are competitive. But I definitely believe that in no way ever should need be considered. That just completely detracts from the spirit of the game.
Duh. I figured it out, it's positive. nm
blame game..........sm
As for the *blame game* - most states and MOST judges don't care....they don't care if your spouse is caught in bed with people. Hopefully the OP's state is like that. Many states today are *no contest* states. If you want a divorce, you can get a divorce in most states with no contesting. If the OP's state is not like this - is not a *no contest* state, the OP needs to file for a divorce in another state, where the OP would need to get residency status in that particular state (using someone's address who you know real well).
Persistence is the name of the game
Your brochure/flyer/business card has to be there at the time they need someone. You need to do multiple mailings and concentrate on those areas you want to work. Use your present accounts for referrals, offer rewards, etc. I have a secret of getting past the front desk but have been laughed at in the past but it works. But just like selling a house, it takes many open houses to find the person that wants your house so it is the same here. Just do mailings about 3 months apart, they will begin to remember your name.
I figured you were Carly... sm
 You are in this profession for the right reasons in my opinion. Keep up the good work, and you know what? Good things will come your way, I promise you that!
See I figured you had a backbone.
Now use it. Quit letting people push you around especially the MTSO you work for. Can you say "scape goat". That prior remark that I made was a test. You PASSED with flying colors. I wanted to see if you would reply to me, and you did! Now apply that response you gave me to your "don't feel like lookin' nuffin ups"!!!!!! Then you'll have more time to "dream in Cali"!!!!  100 wpm is great, and it sounds like you have a lot to offer! Keep up the good work, but just don't do it for free! Hope you're not mad at me..... 
Oh well then it is fair game if not following
BOS. It could be interpreted any number of ways really. I would probably "sticky-note" it and let the doctor review it to be certain though. We aim to please, us nonBOS'ers. You are not saying though Patti, that all clinic notes, in general, do not follow BOS are you? You are just simply stating that you do not follow BOS for your clinic notes, I am assuming.
figured it out and learned something new,....
thanks everyone...this has taken me forever to just get one thing done...thanks.
This game is kind of fun!
Can you find the typo on page 50 of the BOS?
Hey, got it figured and fixed!
I went to the Nuance/Dictaphone web site and looked at their information base and lo and behold, there was the problem and solution. Apparently it's common with Windows XP or 2000 and they recommend a particular file download, DPVoicer1132.exe. I did that and ran it and after rebooting, problem fixed!
Thought maybe an update might help someone doing a search on here in the future.
figured he would understand
Since he is a doctor and a dictator, I thought he would respect and appreciate the work I am doing. Instead, he seems to recent that I am staying home, working more hours and making less money. It just does not make sense to him at all. So, it makes me wonder, am I the one who is crazy for doing this to myself? I do work all day, 12-15 hours since I have 2 companies, but I just love it. He seems to think I am just addicted to the computer.
Sort of figured as much...
Heard some horror stories much like you describe. Thank you anyway.
figured it was a hot topic
just wasn't sure. any other "secrets" I should know about?
I think some drs see dictation as a game. How
x
Yup, it's an endless game (sm)
with downloading the supposedly free versions to find infections, then wanting you to spend money for the fix. It's like you are in between a rock and a hard place. Hopefully, someone with experience on this matter will offer their opinion(s).
That's what I figured. Thanks! (nmsg)
xx
Yes, that's what I figured, and I agree.
However, the post you were responding to was about a scam artist. I was guessing you didn't know what they were talking about, and that's why I explained it.
By any name, the rotten game is still the same! nm
nm
lol. I figured my fingers
got all jumbled up and I somehow did it to myself. It would be quite a coincidence if we both jumbled up the same way at the same time, I think. Maybe we can get some help from the site administrators.
I'm game. And I could use a vacation, even if
I can't afford to do anything but watcth TV. (As long as I still have electricity, that is...)
They probably figured you'd cost too much and
these companies surely do not want to offer anything a USA MT is worth. And they probably would rather insult you by failing you on the test, than your insulting them by refusing their low offer. A lot of us oldies with great quality get the same treatment. Or they say we are prima donnas or something, which really means we are not suckers. LOL.
Thanks, just took a closer look and figured -sm
it out, boy do I feel like a dope, been using this for years since it first came out, actually tested it for them, but just thought you were stuck in that 34 char. phrase box. Guess I need to learn how to READ. Well I am glad to learn something new, and it will help me be a little faster in the future, thanks!
I figured it out....So nevermind
I feel really stupid, but I was checking online to find a resolution to my problem and found a reminder to make sure the box is checked to expand quickwords when you type them. How that box got unchecked I don't know, but anyway, problem solved!
Figured it out - sorta
Well for anyone else dealing with this "hot mess" :)
I believe the test file is somehow in review mode instead of transcription mode because the instructions given me by company correspond to review. But if you just hit the play pedal and tap the backspace pedal at same time, it backspaces incrementally. I never found out how to program it, but this works for now for testing.
Nevermind - I figured it out.. nm

Please, stop the Blame Game
Again, aren't we all in the same boat here - FT, PT, IC, SE, we are all MTs... isn't the point here that those of us who are having a difficult time with the co. we work for (specifically, for me, MQ) that we are all trying to validate, encourage, and hopefully figure out a way to hold the COMPANY responsible??? I don't know the answer, but I DO KNOW that blaming each other, ICs, SEs, FT employees, whatever, is NOT the answer. Geez.

If you only knew, my dear.
We used to play the game that former president Bill Clinton and Ms. Monica Lewinsky played. Do you remember that game they played with the stogie?
