me asking. I'm in upper MI and everyone around here and surrounding areas balks at anything over 8 cpl. I've never heard of anyone in our state paying anywhere near that high, so I'm really curious. Thanks!

Upper case is lower, lower case is upper. Using InstaText. Anyone know how to fix this?
Aargh. It happened all day yesterday. When I brought in text that was all caps
IMPRESSION:
and had lower case on keyboard (as always do), it reverses keyboard commands. This is driving me c-r-a-z-y.
Your mind was in the gutter up there with sauteed stool, too. Would you please take your mind out of

Upper and lower lid blepharoplasty.
Was setting up a surveillance camera because I am a single woman who lives alone.
As I was programming it, I could a glimpse of myself and nearly fell off the chair! I loook old and tired (47).
Have been so busy and so stressed for the last six months, I haven't really taken care of myself. I just joined gym, quit smoking, am cleaning up my act.
But, nothing is going to take the bags away from my eyes. Am thinking of plastic surgery. If anyone has had this done, can you tell me whether it was worth the money to you?
As you know, I am far from rich but have few bills other than the general overhead (no credit cards).
thanks! I work very hard and it would be a gift to myself.
Upper back pain
In the past I have had the same problem, but I found that when I lowered my chair it was greatly improved. It seems I can type faster with my chair higher, but when I lower my chair I have much less pain. It is something to do with the angle in which my arms are.. When they are pretty much level with the keyboard that is a great improvement in the pain, although I have to sacrifice a little bit of speed it is well worth it. I also use a split keyboard which also seems to make an improvement in my pain. I have been at this work for 30 years and believe me I have had pain in all parts of my body related to sitting in this chair in the same position for many hours at a time. I wish you well.
neck and upper back sm
Swimming helps some. Massage definitely helps. I have asked the massage therapist just to focus on my neck and upper back and to work deeply. Rates for massage depend on where you live. I pay about $60 for an hour. Sometimes you can get a half hour. Definitely ask for what you want with massage, and give feedback about what feels helpful. A chiropractor has helped and a strong vibrator has helped. Good luck! I know the pain.
Have ya'll ever had it really help your belly, esp your upper abdomen?nm

No surprise companies have the upper hand....sm
With a law that says an employer can "fire at will"...I have a hard time thinking the unfairness is NOT supposed to be that way. I could bore you with my past experience but I won't..lets just say after 28 years working in one hospital,an employee file with every yearly evaluation saying "exceeds standards"..the number that was done on me by an HIM director who i later was to learn found out I knew she was "playing doctor" with one of our married OB/GYN physicians and must have felt a bit threatened by that... is a story straight out of a "Fatal Attraction" spoof. On seeing my file in the end.. there was entry after entry of documentation that was literally untrue and fabricated.... when asking a lawyer what I could do.. the answer was nothing... they can fire at will... Some employers... and more specifically HIM directors...are bad people too...
Ergonomics for upper back pain?
I have been having tremendous problems with upper back pain right between my shoulder blades and up into my neck and right shoulder for weeks now. It makes typing just miserable.
Doc said I had brachial plexopathy, and gave me narcotics and told me to quit transcription. Since that isn't an option -- any ideas as to how to keep from getting this excruciating pain after an hour of typing? It goes away on weekends when I don't sit at the computer, so I'm sure it's largely related to my positioning. I've tried to fix my posture, but sitting up completely straight hurts worse than slouching.
Share any stretches, techniques for arm positioning, etc. I will be extremely grateful.
Thanks! 
Ergonomics for upper back pain
I find that it helps to get up and do a few stretch exercises. I have a 3-minute workout and microbreaks pamphlet that my husband got from his work that shows and explains some exercises including neck and back stretches. It does help when you get stiff from sitting and typing for so long. If you want me to type it up for you, just let me know and I will.
Yikes! He had the "saggiest" upper arms I

neck/upper back problems
Anyone else out there with neck and upper back problems. I am having problems with neck spasms and it makes my head feel funny with pain into my jaw etc. Another downfall to our jobs I guess.  Any tips from anyone that has had these and gotten relief would be much appreciated I do not like taking muscle relaxers. 
I have consistently made in the upper $40s to mid $50s in this business.
I have not been chained to the computer. I have even worked just 3 days a week to make that. Long days, mind you, but still only 3 days a week.
I have a talent and great aptitude for this work. I also am fiercely protective of my work time/environment. I work very hard while I'm working. Thus, I do not have to work more than 40 hours a week.
Sit in disbelief all you want. Just remember, you are the one not making the money while many of us are.
If you go to "EXText " in the upper left corner....sm
while in a document, all the shortcuts are listed there. Hope this helps.

Nair for upper lip/face works great

Might be meaning the 3 boxes left upper corner??
the 3 little square boxed in the right hand corner, see them. The middle one makes a bigger screen. Unclick it and it goes back to regular size. This this what you meant.
Hey Pockets. Just click "CHAT now" in the upper right hand corner, and it will take you there.

If Word, Shift + F3 cycles thru upper/lower/title case.

Or: in the right upper corner you have the minimize, the restore/maximize and the close button. Cl

Does your program change lower case to upper? If so, type all in lower and
it will change the ones it is supposed to.
I wouldn't use lower case. I'd use upper case. Don't worry about it. nm

Would you mind ...
sharing that site with me? You can email me personally at kathy.eberle@gmail.com. I did get that very email and would like to know what everyone else has to say! Thanks!
Kathy
LOL! Never mind - I see it now.
I was sure it wasn't there a minute ago!
Keep in mind, please......
That if a company has more than, say, 10 accounts, that the recruiters just might not KNOW how difficult an account is. When you get a requisition for account #67, there's no telling whether it's the best account on the planet, or the worst.
Don't mind
Actually don't mind the lower income right then, because I am selling my house and can afford to lose a little, knowing that after the first of the year or so I can get my line count back up.
keep in mind
In addition to the good comments made above you must also be aware that if you are going to a program that may upgrade occasionally and is not static you may well run the risk of losing your autotext entries. If you are really good about backing up your files, good for you and no problems really, but if you are like the rest of us and forget more than you remember to back up .. you could have one horrible day when you see the file not convert or some such ugly thing!

your money being used to support anti-reproductive choice terrorism, go ahead and join.

how good you are feeling since beginning the drug, and that all drugs are very individual in how they event anyone. You really should not make a decision for yourself regarding some one's experience.

Do you mind me asking...
what company do you work for and are they hiring? I have been an Editor for 15 years and am having a hard time find a good company to work for. Thanks
Please keep in mind that many
of the people on this site work at home. Some have forgotten (some never knew) how to interact with others in a courteous and professional manner.
Please keep in mind (sm)
that he will tell you anything you will want to hear. One thing I had to ask myself when I was going thru this was, is this someone that I would want my daughter married to? I repeated that question to myself any time I was tempted to "try again."
where at and of what...if you don't mind my asking...TIA (NM)
I have! You can do anything you set your mind to!

There are many, but the ones that come to mind first are...
I love him because of the way he loves me. He's not fake, pretentious or condescending. He's funny, talented, and is a true gentleman in every sense of the word. Besides that, he's not afraid to go to the store JUST for a box of tampons ;) ... He's the absolute best and I've never been happier.
I do not mind either
Usually, if I am visiting at my mother's house and need to go online, I will ask but it is not a big deal & vice versa. But it all depends on what they want to use the computer for. When we ask each other to use the computer, it is always just to quickly look something up online & it never involves using that person's computer programs or going into their files or anything like that - just the Internet.
never mind!
was able to recover - Whew!
I don't mind .... sm
If young and older American men and woman love America so much that they are willing to go to a for foreign land to protect my liberties with their lives - I certainly will assume the responsibility of freedom for all by letting the government see who I call. Frankly, my phone call list is very boring I am afraid.
So to those who want to make a big deal over nothing (as long as you have nothing to hide), remember who is giving up . . an easier way of making a living (so that you can sit back, fat and sassy) . . an 8 hour work shift five days a week making far less than us (so you can make the money you feel you deserve and are entitled to). . being separated from their families (while we are all getting ready to celebrate mother's day with our families) . . .all because of the love for OUR country and THEIR fellow citizens.
STOP - LOOK- LISTEN - Is it your brother, your father, your uncle, your sister, your mother, your aunt, your fiance, your neighbor, your life long friend? - we all are God's precious children.
God Bless to all of our military and to you and your family - Pray for a United America.
I don't mind at all
If they do this and find terrorists in this country and can stop them before they do something else horriffic, I don't mind at all.
I don't mind at all
I think you have misunderstood my post. I was just saying that one MT might make $16,000 per year at 8 cpl and another MT might make double or triple that. Maybe even more. Being an experienced MT I know that it can depend on many factors, that is what I was trying to express. I'm sorry if you misunderstood.
Realistically, I don't think a new MT or even an experienced MT should anticipate $100K per year. So, if you still want my opinion, my guess would be that at 8 cpl, 40 hour week, you would probably make $30,000 to $35,000. Good luck!
I don't mind your asking--sm
as far as I know, they are still together. They got married one month after his financial obligation to me was ended. It took me a while to get over the anger, because I never even saw it coming, but I guess the anger was mostly at me, for letting myself get into that situation in the first place. I had to forgive him for what he did and the way he did it, and I had to forgive myself for being blind in the first place. I prayed alot and God took me through it. I give thanks every day for what He has given me in return. I AM happy though. Thanks for asking.
really do you mind
if I ask how productive you are with it? Are you editing or transcribing or both? What is a good hourly average lines per hour? Thanks!
Oh, OK.....I did not know that, but ... please sm (if you don't mind)
If you are on a regular page in IE, say on this page rigth here, if you hit ctrl F3 do you get the productivity tools? Maybe I am wrong in what my problem is. When I try to log into Bayscribe from the log in page I get an error that says "No such Account.BPTVer = []. My account has been checked by two others who can get it, but I can't.
Thanks again! It is so nice of you to try to help. I very much appreciate it.

You can do it if you put your mind to it.
Check out this link - it shows you some samples!!! Good luck! I'm sure you could get the hang of it if you want it bad enough!

Don’t know where my mind was,
know you were talking per mile, not hour. I do not know what the most is he ever made per mile because we have not been married a long, long time but just know am glad he has the job he has, otherwise I would be working my numerous jobs to make a living now with the MTers money steadily declining. I am also glad he did not buy his own truck as 1 coworker tried to get him to. The gas situation went sky high after that and thank goodness he was not involved in that. He loves his job (as do I) and some are just not cut out for that field, same as ours I guess.
Never mind, Sorry, just saw
that you sadi "son" and the person I'm talking about only has a daughter, but the same thing happened to her this morning in a conference call. Must have been the same company. That is very sad
How old are you, if you don't mind me asking? sm
Please don't be alarmed right now. I am anxious to know what they say. I had a breast scare a few weeks ago with indented breasts and nipple changes (no discharge). Everything came back clear and normal. PLEASE keep us informed. Do you ever visit the Gab board on this site? I am there every day. Please post your concern over there and we will support you. Plus, I want to know what the mammo says! Thanks!

if you don't mind my asking??
what do you average your houly salary to be. No IC answers please. I'm talking working 40 hour weeks, no OT, no ASR. I can only seem to get to about $16/hr and I hear all these people on here talking about $25/hr. How in the world do you do it? I'm not being nosey, i'm just wondering if i'm at the low end of the totem pole. TIA 
All in my mind?!?!........
Don't they know where you live? Didn't you know that most of them pay you by where you live? Rural folks do get less pay, and I had a supervisor once tell me that one when I was employed with an MTSO. It would be nice to see someone like you come here and try to get a job for what they pay you in the urban areas. It's all in your mind.
