Wow, never occurred to me!

I think stereotyping is common. Some folks think if you're not a doctor and are a nurse, you're gay, or if you're a hair stylist, you're gay. Frankly, my dear, I never think much about it, whether we're talking male or female (several female friends have surprised me!)

Has it occurred to you that these...
"unfortunate family members" cannot get their own homes because (NEWS FLASH) they're not responsible enough or credit worthy enough to get a place to live??? Perhaps they're not as "unfortunate" as you seem to think they are. People like this feed off of idiotic folks like you, the poor broke, arrogant, Christian lady that you are. They're laughing at you daily,thinking of what a FOOLISH person you are for putting up with their low life selves and you know what? They're probably eating the ice cream you'd love your kids to be eating right now! If they are having money problems, these family members who are renting (steal) from you should have the freaking decency to call you and let you know what's going on. You'd do no less than that for them, being the good Christian that you are. If they had any consideration at all, they'd answer their phone or call you and let you know what's going on. BTW, they have a phone? They can pay a phone bill, but they can't pay for a place to live? HELLO???
BTW, I don't feel sorry for you at all. Your main problem is buying ice cream for your kids? Good Lord!!!!!!!!!! How blind are you? You sound like an enabler to me. I bet your kids are overweight and need to lose some weight anyway. LOL
This type of post really burns me up. I'm in the same boat with Rebecca! I'm a single parent and a caretaker of a stroke patient who lives from dollar to dollar, trying to keep the power on, the phone bill paid so I can work. ICE CREAM???? I have to go through the house and scape change together for money. There are times when I go WITHOUT food so that my family members can eat and sometimes they go WITHOUT FOOD! ICE CREAM???? You make me sick!!!
Has it ever occurred to you
that YOU have this job because MTs are the workhorses behind it? What's this "I'm better/No, I'm better" cr*p??
Just occurred to me
Wonder if they changed their name so the letters are more appealing to middle eastern MTs. ?
Please don't bombard me with nasty comments. Just a thought that popped into my head when I read the above post.
That thought occurred to me as well.
If I invoice for what I actually typed according to their line counter, but they change the report and reduce my line count and pay, wouldn't that make me an employee? I wasn't aware people could just change invoices. Maybe I'll try that the next time the plumber shows up here.
The font is very tiny for me. It never used to be this way. It suddenly occurred and nothing I do

Hard to hear dictation occurred also for me
when dictation transitioned from C-phone to digital over the internet. Most dictation was fine; however, the faint dictators disappeared even with volume turned up to its maximum.
Recalled an article I saved "somewhere" for future reference regarding such via some angel on this site regarding such. Searched through my old printouts and finally found article signed by NM regarding mini-amplifier/speaker at Radio Shack.
I searched the internet and found her/his suggestion being the Koss EQ50 3-Band Equalizer referred to at Thenerds.net for $13.99, and it has made all the difference in the world for me regarding the clarity and volume of dictation.
It is a very small unit, approximately 1/34 x 2 inches - input cord plugs into your PC, output cord plugs into headphone.
Was afraid I was going to have to hang it up until I found this unit - it was a lifesaver for me! Dictation loud and clear !!
