YOUR lying, cheating snake....

lied us into a war with over 3500 American SOLDIERS dead, and going on a trillion dollar cost. No wonder bridges are falling down - the U.S. has been neglecting infrastructure needs in favor of militarism for MANY decades.
That said, give the "sex lie" diatribe a rest: Nobody died when bush's predecessor lied...
Iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11. Even Bush admits that now.
They used the fear and outrage from 9/11 to lie about WMD in Iraq - and to then JUSTIFY invading Iraq in order to steal it's resources. Deal with it.
BOTH PARTIES are corrupt - but its the evil in office now whose lying should concern *all* patriots the most - because OUR country is in crisis - regardless of party we all should step up and demand our policies change.
As to you flip comment about knowing what's going to happen with the weather? Give that a rest, too. there is all KIND of documentation showing THIS admnistration prefers to fund FAKE wars instead of take care of the people at home. He was warned about 9/11, failing levees in New Orleans BEFORE Katrina, AND crumbling infrastructure like the BRIDGE in MN.
In fact, he CUT FUNDING FOR THE LEVEES in New Orleans THREE YEARS RUNNING before Katrina.
Please do your homework before you defend *any* administration. Don't rely on PAID radio or TV personalities to tell you what YOU need to know in order to protect YOUR country from bad administrations. They have an agenda and trust me PROPERLY informing you is not part of that agenda.
And yes, I know this thread is turning into a topic for the other board...

I did not see it as an Indian country cheating - I saw it as an American cheating - see message
The way I understood that post was an American woman was getting the contract and then sending her work she was supposed to be doing to the Indian to do and then she was not paying them after they did her work for her. I did not see that it was an American masquerading as an Indian or an Indian masquerading for an American - I think the poster was somebody that had been hoenstly cheated of a paycheck that they had earned - I may not agree with our work going to India, but if they do manage to get the work, they should be paid for it after they have done it.
snake in NC
We are in NC. Actually, it was at my parents' house. They tried to get snake repellent but according to the directions it may make the problem worse. They ended up putting window screen netting over all of the vents just to get through the weekend so they can call the exterminator. Can't really say what kind or how big he was. It was hard to see through the vent. Any snake to me is no good. He was big enough that he was coiled up at least several times. First time I looked down and saw him his head was right at the vent and he was licking his tongue up toward/through the vent slot. Holy Moley. 
How do you know the snake is a HE?...sm
In Florida, we have a serpentarium (sp?) where the man comes only to remove snakes....
Good luck with this!!! 
It's still a SNAKE!
I sympathize!
How they are lying to get them
They are claiming that the reason they want these normals is to benefit our fellow MTs, where that is not the case at all. They are too lazy to make up normals, so they want ours to ship overseas for those people to use. Can you believes the level these people are going.
Since when is lying against the law?

lying on the web
I talked to a recruiter once who told me she could do 700 lines an hour (no, that's not a typo) of straight typing (expanders only, no templates). That's right, girls. 700 lph.
Talk about feeling small! 700 lines an hour???? My best is 400 & I'm not doing that now because I'm not doing ops so it's much more straight typing, very little "template-able" text.
I posted about it at the time & everyone seemed to agree this was not do-able. So I don't know. Anyway, when I heard that I was ready to throw in the towel.
Sorry...but you are lying
Bringing home 1840 BEFRE taxes and being able to pay mortage or rent on your "nice 2300 sq foot home w/land" utilities, insurance, and food is not possible. So either you are not having to pay for a mortgage or rent or you have supplemental income. There is no where in this country one can live on their own for 11.50 hour
Why lying?
Why would you suspect the above poster is lying? I have 2 transcription jobs; Employee $.095 line with benefits and IC $.10 per line. These jobs are out there. Yes, I have seen the $.06 per line jobs too and I always send the MTSO an email stating they should be ashamed of themselves. I have yet to get a reply.
could be a harmless snake...nm

To the MT with the snake in the ductwork sm
Did it ever get out so it could be caught? Or did it just disappear? It probably found its way out by whatever way it came in. I was thinking of you today, LOL. I took my 2 dogs out for a little playtime beyond the fence gate where we keep them penned in. My youngest dog, just barely a year, was sniffing the ground, jumped back, sniffed again and jumped back again. I thought maybe there was some unfamiliar animal doo-doo in the yard and went over to see what he was sniffing. Here it was a 5 feet long blue racer all curled up right in the middle of the yard, just chillin'. Of course, my son the avid snake fanatic wasn't home so I got the garden hoe and a bucket and coaxed it into the bucket and took it way out back and turned it loose over the hill. He can go find lunch elsewhere. Wasn't my favorite job but I really don't care for them in my yard. I figured he found his way in after the 3 feet high lawn was cut next door the other day. They usually breed in the previous owner's garage. 
Snake repellant
Real peppermint oil drives them off. Not the flavoring you bake with, but the real oil, sold for about $11 for a tiny jar. Put a drop on cotton ball and put it in the bush. Put a drop on some more cotton balls and throw them into bush. Should clear out the bush and the area, at least until it rains. Good luck.
selling snake oil?
So for the second time this year, "At Home Professions" has come calling to town to give their big seminar. The flood of calls to my house start coming in from people I barely know or hardly know about all the fame and fortune of being an MT. They are telling people they could start at 15 cpl and make 50K per year.  Are they even a real school? I want that job!
Nevertheless, I get the calls about how wonderful and terrific working at home is (not that it isn't, but it is hard work!), how "I listened to what they had to say and I can do that" (like it is no big deal), and basically how "easy" it is. Sigh.... I feel like I am explaining the science of building a rocket to my 5 year old who just wants to jump in and take a ride!
Yeah, snake-oil fer sure.........

ONE other person? Now you're just LYING!!!!
Lie, lay, lying, laying
Can anyone recommend a website or reference for these words to clear them up once and for all in my head? TIA
He's lying. How would the "seasoned" MTs
What a jerk!! At least make sure you let him know you think so!!
PS - It does matter if they are lying to you sm
It matters very much if they are "using" you and cherry picking to others. Trust a thief before you trust a liar. Either it is your account exclusively or they have to own up that they are getting cheap, not frugal, CHEAP! Not to mention sneaky liars that they are. At the time it goes to court, they will say they gave it to you and you "lost" it or you made that horrible mistake that made the patient sicker or killed them. I don't share my toys, that way they don't get dirty unless it's my own dirt.
Its the MQ way. I have my way of letting them know I know they are lying. I hate being BS around.
:
No one accused you of lying. This is not the first time
in the past few weeks where you have gotten comments to search the archieves of the company boards. While I sympathize with you, it surely isn't our fault that you don't have work. Post your resume on the job boards, answer all the ads on the job boards that you think you can handle the shift, the equipment, etc.
With just about every company there are pros and cons, some people love it, some hate it, some just couldn't cut it and bad mouth the company and there seem to be no other posts to support claims. This is the reason you need to read previous posts, to get the info and decide for yourself. Only one person may post about the company you are asking for and it may be favorable, but that is only view point and may not be enough information or the type of information you were looking for.
That's because they're either lying or delusional
So childish.
That is a great story. I thought you were going to say it was a snake. sm
I used to live in a big old farm house and snakes would get in occasionally. Also an owl came in through the old heater pipe. I miss the country but it would give you a little high blood pressure once in a while.
Well, I gotta' tell you, if a living snake comes my way, I'm gonna kill him. nm

Who is cheating who then?
Not cheating
I didn't mean to sound like I was trying to cheat and you didn't have to be so nasty. I did NOT "choose" to retire. My daughter and son-in-law are on their second tour in the resort community of Baghdad. His mother and I are sharing raising their three girls. My company sent all their work to India and I could not find work at the age of 63 that would pay what I had been making. Now that I am getting my social security, I am only allowed to make $900 a month and I think I will make too much as fast as I type. I am trying to work 20 hours because I want to and need to, but I am not going to throw my granddaughters away while their parents are fighting on their country's orders. I simply cannot work full time while they are over there. My son-in-law's mother cannot quit or retire. She is too young and is single. Don't be so hasty to judge people, lady. My question was how does it work with being an IC, not how to cheat!!! I read somewhere that you can have your husband's taxes withheld at a higher rate and I read it on THIS board. That is not CHEATING. I just wanted to know how it works. If all I can type is $900 a month, obviously I don't want it all going out to taxes and I was trying to see how that other lady did it. I'm glad your life is so perfect that you can sit back and accuse other people of cheating. Are YOUR kids over their facing death every day? I am TRYING to work!
Not cheating but ....
All that has been said on here is that you can have your husband overwhold to pay your tax liability as you file joint at the end of the year. But if you chose to retire and can now make only $900 a month but need more than that to tale care of your grandchildren, sorry but it is your problem. Have your daughter and son-in-law pay you. Not trying ro sound cold or callous but you chose to retire early to do this. I am sure that one of them could have gotten out if the other went. But the guidelines say such and it is such. No way around it unless you work under the table. Good luck.
And there are those who are cheating by
adding lots of extra spaces in the report where there should be blank lines. This adds to the line count and not visible unless formatting is turned on in Word.
There are many ways to cheat the system, but everyone is accountable for their own soul in the end.
Respect is what we should be striving for, and then and only then will our income increase. Doctors have no respect for us because we have sunk to the lowest of the lows.
I'M NOT CHEATING
EXCUSE ME FOR ASKING FOR CLARIFICATION ON A COUPLE OF THINGS. I WAS NOT ASKING FOR THE ANSWERS. I FOUND THIS WEBSITE BECAUSE I WAS RESEARCHING AND SOMEONE CAME ONTO THIS WEBSITE WITH THE EXACT SAME QUESTIONS I HAD ON SOME THINGS OTHER THAN WHAT I NEED NOW AND SHE WAS GIVEN THE ANSWERS. I HAVE BEEN COMPLIMENTED ON MY RESEARCH SKILLS FROM THE INSTRUCTORS AND HAVE STRAIGHT As. I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE I HEARD SOMETHING RIGHT ON THE TAPE. I THOUGHT THIS WAS A PLACE TO GET SOME ADVICE. I RESENT THAT ANYONE SAYS I AM CHEATING. I WOULDN'T DO THAT. I CAN RESEARCH. THANKS FOR NOTHING.
A lying scumb bag boss having a mid life crisis
I used to work for an insurance agency and for the most part liked it and liked who I thought my employer was - it should be noted that this is a man I had known for 30 years and used to baby sit his kids when they were little. Kids also worked in the agency. Anyhoo, the business had been struggling - amazing how that works if you don't actually sell any insurance. One day at the end of August 2007 he sat us all down and said he was merging/selling out to another agency. He was assured of a place as a producer, but the rest of us would have to interview with the new agency and we may or may not have a job. In his exact words "I'm throwing you all under the bus, and I"m sorry for that, but it's time to take care of Larry." Well, all righty then. Over the next weeks it was made very clear to me that I was NOT going to be offered a job at the new agency.
I went back to my desk right after the meeting and immediately started trying to figure out what to do. I knew how to transcribe, having done that for years for an insurance adjuster. I'm a wicked fast typist, too. I really wanted to work from home and I REALLY wanted to never be in a position where I was at the mercy of a 57 year old man having a mid life crisis again. I found an online MT course that day, and for the next month instead of working I studied the course at work and within a month after that got a job.
It's amazing how things work out, though. If dirtbag Larry hadn't done what he had done, I would not have had the flexibility to take care of my mom as she was dying. So, really, it was a blessing. I actually told Mom at one point that I should send him a note: Dear Larry. Thanks for being a pr!ck. Love, Robin.
Mom didn't think that was as funny as I did.
Odds are its a harmless snake, open up then vent but capture it - sm
rig up some sort of box for it to crawl into, put some food in there for it (dead mouse, whatever) and when it comes out, close up the box. Take it outside and let it go. We don't kill anything if its not poisonous, even then I don't (have a lot copperheads around here), though my DH does. My 1 neighbor kills all snakes unfortunately. Snakes are good though, they keep down the rodents. They won't bother you if you don't bother them.
Most companies consider that cheating and
the e-mail was very, very misleading by trying to make everyone think this person typed this much. What low class company this must be to resort to this out and out lie by management. Anyone that goes to work for them after reading this gets what they deserve.
check for cheating us
i agree with you completely -- the check is valid for 180 days, so i'm holding off until I get verification on how they got the figures that I'm satisfied with and what the lawyer's come up with. They're so underhanded that if that lawsuit does become a class action lawsuit their lawyers would probably come up with some kind of excuse saying that you're disqualified if you did cash that check indicating that you were okay with their figure.
Cheating = anything you're doing with
a member of the opposite sex that you are hiding from your spouse because you know he/she will be hurt by it and find it out of bounds.
That includes with a live person over the internet, on the phone, or in person.
If you don't want DH to know about it, you're cheating.
cheating/infidelity
It would be hard to forgive.... however, there are various reasons people cheat. Perhaps the couple have lost touch with each other, perhaps the other person withholds intimacy. In my estimation there is a reason people cheat. I think most women do because they are lacking or neglected in their marriage by the husband.. ie. he is never around, he ignores his wife like she isn't there, has priorities that are not healthy for the marriage. I am not saying all this stuff makes it right. But when a person's heart is not tended to, just plants are not taken care, they wither and die a little bit everyday, thus leaving a person empty, lonely, and afraid. When the heart is not taken care of, a little bit of life is gone from a person until the begin to feel cheated and neglected. A man can take care of things at home for his wife, do dishes, fix this, fix that, but in the end is that enough to keep you heart nurtured?
Is using a timer cheating?
I work on production only. I do have a set schedule, but the company I work for is fairly flexible. I have started using a timer where I set it for 60 minutes and stop it if I am interrupted, have to get up, etc. This gives me a more accurate picture of exactly how much I can type in an hour. Is this cheating not to just go by clock hour?
Not so. That's not cheating you in any fashion.
However the MTSO chooses to contract with dictation providers is up to them.
The MT's only concern is the contract between their own services and the MTSO.
If she wants to charge the client by the page and pay the MT by the character, that's fine.
MTs have GOT to get over this idea that they are the end-all/be-all ... that every decision should be made around them and include them. Not true.
The big companies are cheating themselves, as well.
The pay big money for all the equipment & software to speed up TAT, and then sell themselves cheaply to the hospitals by allowing themselves to be dragged into a price-war. Hiring offshore MTs just compounds the problem. If they had stuck with US MT's, kept the work onshore, and kept their prices at US levels instead of Third-World levels, they'd be rolling in $$. Unfortunately, just because one is in a CEO or management position, doesn't necessarily mean their IQ matches their overstuffed pay envelopes. And in most cases, it doesn't even come close.
The big companies are cheating you?
and have never met you? They have maybe talked with you on the phone. They give you vacation time. I just don't get it. An IC might gain an account for 14 cpl with an office. The national is only charging say 10 or 11 because they can afford to since they have platforms and the ease to take on high volume. They pay you 7, 8, or maybe 9, provide benefits, yet the MT feels cheated?
I totally agree that quality matters, but when you are an hourly employee you don't feel that pressure of TAT. Also, the raises aren't there either. So, you wind up working making the same paycheck even though you are still typing an 8-hour day and just as tired. Production makes you more $$$ no matter how you slice it. I've done both, and production is better believe me.
Read again, I'm not the one who actually said you were CHEATING....
However, you did say, and I quote:
**I need a few more answers on some of the dictation for the final. If you are out there reading this and can help me, please let me know. It is just a few clarifications on things I have researched and just can't find. I need to do great on this final.**
Now, I am not the one who called you a cheater, but you might have wanted to word the above differently, as you did say you needed ANSWERS and needed to do great on this final. I'm just saying.......
Good luck to you I really hope you do well.
cheating lines
Please tell me how you figured that out. I've been very suspicious about my company as well. I keep track of everything, the number of the report, where the report was sent, status of uploaded or not and number of lines; however, if they are fudging you, it won't show up on your line count that you see. It will mean that they have messed with the counting system on the software. People are very sneaky and cruel. I've been doing this for 25 years and cannot get above 100 lines an hour. Now, tell me how that's possible what with using short cuts, etc. Please let me know so I know what to look for. Thanks
Identify the snake to your local cooperative extension agent and they'll tell you what to do, if

I am NOT lying! It's the truth. I've received solicits from at least 8 people overseas.
That's called cheating and scamming and
Talk about unethical and criminal.
Falsifying payroll records, etc.
Hopefully you're not cheating on an employment test, right?
shame on you
Wealth/Shrinks/SATs/Cheating
This has been occurring forever in another way - hiring a shrink to get your child an appropriate score to be placed in the ADVANCED classes and keeping others out who bust their butts to make honest A's. Went thru this with my own children...who were gifted in some areas, not as great in others, but certainly not slow, and working hard to make the A's and B's. You can pay a shrink to give them that IQ score they need that puts them in the "click" in this area. It's okay though. My kids have done great regardless and don't give a @#$ about clicks and who owns what!
If your child was caught cheating at school,
