You have no idea how I am agreeing with you

In Reply to: lol medical jargon - Gina
This job would not be half as bad if they only had medical jargon. I could put up with that. I absolutely hate it when I have someone who is smacking and sounds like they are eating and swallowing while dictating. I did not allow that at my table and now have to listen to this mess. Just down right rude. Why do you have to collect a mouthful of saliva before taking a big gulp and then letting out some sound but not really a burp? I hope my kids learned better manners than these were taught. Someone fell down on their job.

yes I know, I was agreeing with you. - nm

Certainly agreeing with you too.
I have had to listen to more than 1 doctor sit on the toilet and do his business and it was GROSS!! I had to listen to one singing when he thought no one was listening. I listened to one have a very private conversation with the office manager (and it was not about work!) I had one fall asleep and start snoring. Finally, the one who had just had twins and was burning the candle at both ends was actually talking in his sleep while dictating. My company had to call the administrator and let them listen to it (talk about endangering the patient). I think I have heard it all. Nothing surprises me anymore and I am sure someone can probably top these.
that's what i mean. you are agreeing with your own thoughts?
in my church the preacher makes statements and the congregation says amen. he doesn't amen himself making himself in agreement with himself. if you don't agree with yourself, why bother to make the statement? just sayin....
Ha! I was just agreeing with you below! Great
minds sure think alike...
I am so agreeing with your post and here is why
I do straight some but VR most of the time. I do not think possible to have the speed of say 600 or 700 with the platform I use because the audio cannot be set that fast. I keep mine on fast forward so with almost perfect dictators for an hour might have done say 550 but I am saying perfect for an hour and you know how often that happens.
dude, I'm agreeing with you
I found nothing wrong with your original post. I almost posted a response myself saying that you need to talk to your QA people because every company uses their own method of putting blanks in, but someone else had already said it.
I just think Ella was responding to the wrong message, but I'm certainly not here to defend another poster.
Whoops! Was agreeing with post by sm!
:)
No, I was agreeing that Mary's arrogant.
;)
Agreeing with Happy, sounds just like
the jack person.
This is the whole idea
The corporations want it that way-- they don't give a rip about the "middle class". The CEOs just want to be able to buy a new yacht every year, new cars, have several homes all over the country and maybe the world, etc. It's all about GREED. That's why nobody will do anything about illegal immigration. They want to pay their workers as little as possible so it's all profit for them.
What is your idea of
"enough?" How much do you think the job is worth?
An idea
for the businesses that you should contact are the ones where your friend has done business such as bank,church, her place of employment, and any place that her parents were involved in. When we had a fundraiser for someone that I worked with we contacted a local band and a bar with a dance floor to helped raise money for his injuries. They all volunteered their service free of charge. And many people showed up to help him out. Just a thought!
You have no idea.
Let's just keep it there.
Better idea
If you have an experienced MT doing the recruiting, he/she can tell just in a conversation whether the applicant does/does not know his/her business. As you said, you're going to know within the first couple of days whether or not the applicant is going to pan out If you're testing for an MT to do cardiac caths, start a conversation about cardiac caths. All MTs I have ever known love to discuss their trade...if they know it. These extensive tests put out by most companies these days are a horrific waste of time...they don't prove a thing!
Idea
Maybe it's like one website I went to, where it seemed the way to do it was to respond with an e-mail first (pasting a resume into your e-mail and saying what job you were interested in), and then they would respond and tell you what tests they wanted you to take?
I have no idea! -nm

Now there's an idea!

Thank you for that idea. I can do that.
The obvious solution is always right in front of us, right? LOL
I have no idea what they are seeing that I am
Not at all. Good for them if they are getting a better deal at Walmart. Wasn't happening for me.
Have no idea what it could be, but if he has any (nm)
nm
I have them...have no idea why you don't
You might try emailing the moderator or administrator of this site.
one idea
If you are using actual WavPedal software, try this first. Open WavPedal - settings - options - file associations - and make sure .dss is checked (or add file type .dss and check it). Close. Then, right click on your voice file and "open with" and choose WavPedal. Should open. Sounds like your default player for voice files is not WavPedal. I think it will ask you (can't remember off hand) then just choose YES for WavPedal as default for all files with .dss association.
I had no idea. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I have no idea what you mean. nm

Here is an idea
Start out not charging anyone anything but time. Everyone who joins contributes a skill to the organization such as marketing, PR, etc. It costs nothing to do e-mail newsletters, just time and some people to write for it. Online meetings on Yahoo or MSN groups would be nothing to do.
Also getting a website can be pretty cheap if a few members would be willing to design it. Everyone has a friend of a friend who has this business or that. A lot of times, especially in the case of smaller businesses, they are willing to trade small services for exposure and advertising. You would be amazed.
I used to work in Marketing for nonprofits before deciding to stay home as an MT. I also still do consulting work. I am all for a new organization and would love to participate in any way I could to back to representing what "they" were supposed to.
Send me an e-mail. We'll chat. 
Huh? what does this mean? no idea.nm
.
Thanks for this idea....sm
is there a way to find out what companies hire SE? That sounds good. What company do you work for if you don't mind me asking. You could e-mail me if you want. Thanks!
You have no idea how much better that
makes me feel! Hopefully mine does the same. I've unplugged it and am leaving it alone for awhile. I found out to fix it the cost will be around $300. I sure hope it works.
I do not know how my supervisor puts up with me sometimes, but she has me set up to work another way until I get this fixed. Thank you all for the help!
any idea
anyone know why it takes so long to get a count on the ichart site? Been happening all week - takes up to a full day and 1/2.
Thanks so much for that Idea! sm
You know I'm beating myself up trying hard to figure out how to do the hard hyphen and hard space so it expands that way and your idea of doing it first then highlighting and entering it is not something I would have ever thought of!!! This works great. Thank you so much for all your help.
I Like your idea
I like your idea.
No idea.
I have a not great account that gets cherry picked into extreme lateness. I don't mind if you cherry pick to get a decent doctor or two after having a ton of crappy ones but to cherry pick out all the good stuff and put the rest of us behind with all the bad ones is just wrong.
Idea - sm
I don't know logistically how to go about this, but as a sociology student I know there should be a way. What if we could somehow poll people to see if they approve of their records being sent overseas and use that in our letters?
I just got an idea
I have noticed that with every company i have worked for the general style has been not to reveal or encourage the MTs to talk. This is totall a divide and conquer thing. It would be nice if we could all (safely without lossing our jobs) list ourselves somewhere and what company we work for. If things are bad for everyone and we could team up...who knows.....
An idea...
You can if you have the disc. I'm not personally sure about those programs, but, when I first started with my co. I took my computer there for them to load because it was in same state and not too far away. Anyway, when I bought new computer, I just had them overnight me the disk instead of taking new computer to them. Then they walked me through some final details. So, if you can't transfer it, that might be a thought.
An idea
Let's face it, they want us to wipe their noses for them.
I don't blame you for being upset at all, but it won't do any good to talk to your OM. They'll do whatever the dictators ask.
When that happens to me, I get upset for a few hours, grumble to myself, then stick a post-it note near my computer screen, and after a couple of days, it's habit and I don't think about it anymore.
I like that idea.
I like it indeed.
here's an idea -
and not off the subject. I was due for a new car but can't afford one now that my wages have been cut to match Indians. Toyota Camrys are made in Kentucky (and I think West Virginia, some parts) - yes it is a Japanese corporation but American workers do have jobs. Bumper stickers are a great idea. I had considered a billboard - I have no idea how much they cost. Hospital security would probably throw me out but I can walk across the street on public property.
They have no idea.
MD-created templates are extremely difficult and time-consuming to use. You are left to guess at what they mean, and then you get no feedback. They are probably so sure their bases are covered that they aren't even reviewing their reports anymore.
My sympathies. Good luck.
Another idea
First of all, sorry about the typos in my post above (it was the middle of the night).
You also might want to look into the many customer service jobs (call center jobs) you can do from home now as well.
Google it to find a list of legitimate companies.
Good luck in whatever you pursue!
One last idea
Go to options, and unclick where it says continue playback and see what happens. You want to talk slowing down, that's what the F keys did for me. Maybe you can figure out a good pattern of when to lift your foot. Maybe all you need is a rhythm.
I have an idea.......sm
Call and ask if that account is still a client and if you can have more of that work. Tell them how satisfied you are working for their company and how comfortable you were doing that particular account or worktype. Ask if there is anything he or she can do to help you out with this.
Do not talk about money or how much your line count has dropped!!!!
Just present it in a positive light and hopefully the supervisor or whoever will come through for you. I think your approach to the subject means everything. People would rather deal with others in a positive manner than have someone call and "complain".
Remember, be positive and ask for assistance. Good luck. I hope it works out for you.
I have no idea.
I'm wondering if maybe he understood exactly what the kids were saying and just chose to ignore them.
Maybe, maybe not.
I do know that the DMV here tests in English and in Spanish so maybe he doesn't have to speak or read English to get a license for driving a school bus. I really don't know.
The real problem is that a kid was having a medical emergency and the bus driver didn't really give a rip.
So instead of having one child on the bus in distress, it was all of the kids because they were so upset that he was ignoring this girl's problem.
I really like this idea. sm
One of the doctor's in the office I work for is my step-uncle. He told me recently that they brought in a consultant to help them learn how to run the office smoother. This is a practice that has been in business for 40 years. He and I don't talk business when we are together and I don't go to him if I have a complaint, just don't think it is fair to put him in that position. Some things I have been able to work out with the employees in the office but things like my paycheck..it is mailed to me..and I often don't get it until after I have e-mailed and faxed my invoice at least twice. Frustrating!
not odd, I have no idea either

One's idea of mean is not everyone's idea of

no idea
I have no idea which FTP server it is. I was sent the link to the server and instructions on how to obtain files. I have talked to QA and she said she also believes it is a permission issue. I am headed to actually meet her and a few other in the company in a few weeks. So, hopefully, we will get it all worked out then. For now I just email her every morning the listing of the .wav files I downloaded and she erases them on her end. She says she does not mind and she knows I will be in her office in a few weeks anyway.
Thanks for all the help. I will google that and see what comes up. BTW how do I find out which FTP server it is I use? It just says ftp then a bunch of numbers.
I have no idea....
***Edited by Moderator***
It is not appropriate to request help for an employment test.
There is an idea.
I did manage to copy it over in word and sent it ot her that way. I will see if that works. Thanks.
Seriously, I have no idea...sm
as I have never worked the graveyard shift and am thinking about applying for a job to work these overnight hours. I assume the rate is generally more with a 3rd shift differential, but what is a realistic amount to charge per line? If you work for a company on 3rd shift, can you tell me what you are paid per line? I would greatly appreciate some info....TIA
Just an idea...sm
How is this for an idea--Buy a white paint pen from a craft store and then coat with clear nail polish or something like polyurethane. I do not know if this would work or affect the feeling of the keys (just thinking out loud here), so definitely would try it out on a piece of hard plastic first.
