I sincerely appreciate your so very kind words and you are definitely doing the most important thing, I feel - praying. I do believe in prayer. :) Thank you so very, very much.
I put my life in God's hands each and every day and have for many years now. :) That does not go to say that I am still not scared though for sure. :)

Thank you all for your kind wishes and prayers. It is much appreciated.
You are all great!
thanks for the kind words - it does help...:)
I know lots of places are hiring, but I don't have enough experience for most of them and am afraid to jump from the frying pan into the fire....
Thank you for your kind words...
I am hopeful too. I really try to be good on any promises I make. But as I said earlier, I would have probably taken it easier if I would have just been fired that day rather than think things were fine and keep having work given to me for another week and then after that, when I wasn't having a problem with TAT, get fired. To me, if someone didn't fulfill their promise, I would have just ended the relationship right there. I would not have gone on for another week while I got my ducks in a row. That is almost as bad as I what I did. All she did was lie to me and keep strining me along and won't even discuss this at all. Is that right?
Thank you for your kind words.....
Your kind words are much apprciated, and they made me smile.
I feel sorry for this poster, because I know what she's going through. Nothing will rip a mother's heart out faster than a child, but you know there are many times that there is just nothing we can do. To keep your sanity, you just have to go with the flow and let it go. Realize when you're fighting a battle that you cannot win. The sad, but true, facts.
Have a happy day.....
Thank you for the kind words!

Thank you for your kind words. Everyone has their way
of giving and however people choose to give is their choice. Some give through church, some through the Salvation Army, by giving food, etc. and that's great. What we are doing with MTStars Santa's House is an annual thing. Every year, people give and the result is gifts for less fortunate children. That's the bottom line. We offer a way for work at home folks to not only give but have chances at winning some pretty neat prizes, too. Our sponsors and companies give generously every year to make this happen and MTStars plans several months in advance in readiness for the holiday season so that the poor will have something in their hands this time of year. Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas to all of you. Administrator

Well hopefully things will pick up just a little. I don't want to be so busy I can't have a life just a little more than I am now.
The owner never has come to get them. My husband says the guy is deer hunting every day after work and doesn't have time for the dogs. If I made him come get them they would probably starve cause I don't think he would feed them half the time. So I have just been taking care of them. For my kindness, he did give me one of his registered females he paid good money for. She is the cutest beagle ever. She has a perfect little beagle face. She should have been a show dog. Her name is Ashley and he knew how much I loved her. He said she is yours for all you have done for me. He was going to sell her and I was sad because I loved her. I said I wish I could afford her I would buy her. He said you have helped me out so much so she is yours free. He said he would give me her papers.
I do love dogs. Everyone wants me to take care of their dogs cause I treat them like children. I am a true animal lover. I have the softest heart for animals and especially dogs. Dogs have a special place in my heart.
Thank you, I will pass along your kind words to him.
Thank you for taking the time to write back. It is really helpful and I appreciate your kind words. Thank you for the prayers! I will pass along your kind words to him. Bless you and have a great day.
Thanks for all your kind words and suggestions, NM

Thanks so much for your kind words, Ms. Indigo
Yes, today I have felt more serene with my choice. I think a lot of it had to do with me pinning down what was bugging me. I know we can't control the job market or the economy. But I guess I just prefer the idea of being an employee, having been one for so long. And you are right, accepting a situation and making the best of it, like working later in the day and having lunch with our kids is a great remedy to cheer one up, and working later to have the line count is fine with me. I have always been able to deal with situations. I just did not understand, I guess, the nature of IC and thinking it was 100% freedom. Well, it isn't because the pitfall is there does not have to be any guarantees for work at least with the company where I am an IC. Anyway, thanks everyone too for helping me think this one out loud. Working at home, I miss the water cooler, and appreciated the time everyone took to give me different points of view. It truly helped.
Thanks for the kind words and reassurance. sm
I think the rehab service people are pushing me because the money has already been spent and they have to justify their jobs. I feel bad about that, but have to think of myself. I also think they really don't know exactly what an MT's job entails. I just can't see their logic in having me give up a job I already have in this economy. I also told them I didn't want to be tied down to the area I currently live in and eventually would like to move. They had a hard time understanding that this job is totally portable.
Thank you for your kind words of encouragement...sm
Yes I have complained for a few times on here. Sorry. Didn't realize it was such a bother. I thought this was a place to come and vent your fustrations. Guess I was wrong.
I have not left yet because like I said I don't have 2 years exp, which most companies I have applied with want or I don't have the acute care that most I applied with want. That is why I haven't gotten another job. I wondered if anyone else had gone through this experience before. Like I said I am at wits end. I don't know what to do and I guess I was just venting. I'll keep trying to look for another job. All I can do. Maybe in 6 months when I have 2 years I can luck up and get one. So you see right now I can't control my own life. If I could I would have another job.
Only for the bad dictators - to see what kind of a face those awful words come out of - LOL

Lots of 'em, but use a Lab Words, Sted's Ortho/Rehab Words, & Tessier's Surgical Words most
s
You'll need a lab words book and maybe the Derm and Immunology Words..nm
s
Stedmans Med $ Surgical Equip words, Path and Lab words, and Tessiers Surgical Word book (3rd
edition). I never buy drug books anymore. Waist of money in my opinion. New drugs come out so often, it's best to use the web.
THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP!!!! MUCH APPRECIATED!!!
:)
Thank you. That is appreciated. nm

Any help would be so appreciated. sm
Starting a new account and it is using a Dictaphone c-phone. I have never used this type of machine and told them that when I took on the account. The office provided me with a Dictaphone Voice Processor Connexions phone, Model 421, and it has the headset and foot pedal connected to the phone itself.
I have managed to program the dial-in number successfully (yeah).
Their office manager is not helpful or knowledgeable about this at ALL. She just looks at me and says, "I have no clue about anything to do with the transcription."
When I call into the dictation server, it rings, connects, beeps once, and then sits there. I have looked at the instruction book (or a partial one that was given to me - book is ripped in half) and have tried the command #*18 to go into transcribe mode, but press the pedal and nothing happens, but I do hear three beeps.
In one part of the book, it says to program a quick access key to "sign off and get next" by using the number 8. I have also done this, but still - just three beeps.
Please help me - I am clueless. Always used FTP with digital recorders or Lanier, but never Dictaphone.
Thanks!
Thank You. Much Appreciated by Those of us Looking!
:8]
have a good day!
Burnt out and under appreciated
I can relate. My income is decreasing, my hours are increasing. My son is making more as a security guard at the local casino. I'm so tired at night I can't do anything. I think we all need vacations, if we could afford one.
It is SO nice to be appreciated by somebody!
I am so glad to see that somebody realizes these ESLs are practically impossible to understand, as the "higher-ups" in these outfits don't have a clue what we have to put up with, and they think our job is so easy-- we are "just typists", you know. I am just finishing up a very long night shift and you have made my day. Thanks again!
Thanks all for your responses. All help is truly appreciated!
We're just gonna ride it out. It's been 9 hours and he's still going. I did get him to agree to try to nibble a cracker and DH is bring home ginger ale and Gatorade was recommended by the NP, so we'll try that and maybe a popsicle and dry toast. Thanks for all the help. Say a prayer for us as we ride this out and pray I don't get it after him.
I really appreciated my dictator just now.
At the end he said, "This is <his name> bumbling through this again. Thank you so very much."
Guess it makes me at least feel a little appreciated.
THANK YOU ALL...Greatly APPRECIATED
Thank you SO much for the help...and Doctalk...you were GREAT...thanx for all the info. I am working on this as we speak and appreciate your giving me all the information you have....
THANK YOU ALL!
Thank you all for these sites, they are truly appreciated (nm)
I didn't tell that to try to get anything from anyone though it is appreciated.
Things have progressively gotten worse for us since this summer. First having to work less to keep an eye on my child who is having problems, missing work to go to school, go to court, etc., then having work dry up AND having a company not pay in a timely manner. Not having insurance and having to spend hundreds of dollars a month on medicine. I was also a gestational surrogate and had the parents stiff me on bills, which eventually they paid but the stress of dealing with the lawyers and bill collectors didn't help. It has just been on thing after another...just piling on and drowning a bit at a time. We haven't paid rent on time since July and of course the landlord is upset. They have bills to pay too and I understand and appreciate that they haven't booted us yet. Next month I won't pay on time either and they are mulling over their options. I don't have money to move us anywhere and frankly no where to go. There are a couple homeless shelters here but they are scary and I don't think very safe.
I'm trying my hardest to dig us out. I think we'll be okay next year but I'm at my stress max now.
Thank you for answering. Much appreciated.

Thank you Jan for the info and the prayers - so appreciated. (nm)
any info good or bad would be appreciated
on JLG and All Type. Speaking with one, actual offer from the other but not sure about either. Concern for more is flexibility which they both promise, but I heard that one before.
Nice post! It is appreciated! Thanks! :-)
nm
Thanks for that info! Greatly appreciated!

Thank you both!!! Much appreciated. Will relay the info. (nm)

It's nice to feel appreciated
and usually a rare occurrence to get that kind of recognition - good for you ! 
I appreciated your post just now but dontcha...
I appreciated what you just said in this post about union/organizing/mts....however, I think most of Americans are like this, not just MTs.
In this country, it seems to me (and I'm 3rd-4th generation), it's all about the individual and their pocketbook(s), finding a rare person who does actually think globally or universally.
I feel this way politically too....for 6+ years people are complaining, moaning, and groaning about the govt - but not a single person would challenge same govt, only challenging with words and not actions (not enough actions) - so they will continue to moan and groan, not getting off their duffs and doing anything REAL.
just my nickel's worth.....
Thank you both! Your advice is greatly appreciated. nm

I really appreciated these posts too. Today
I just increased my work load for myself (I am an IC) to afford more things at food shopping (LOL) and also because the holidays are coming. I keep crabbing on my days off (during the week BTW) that I don't have enough money, so I don't go anywhere. I scheduled myself just a bit more for those days off, about 3 hours extra a day. I figure if I can crab and stare at e bay, I can type a couple of hours. Now, I have to motivate to do so, and your suggestions here help a lot. It isn't just boredom it is the motivation instead of putting the energy to crabbing to myself, to actually type, get the work done. Even a little bit more will make me feel like I accomplished something. Now I will apply what you suggest above and I know it will help! Thanks so much!
To each their own. I appreciated FedUP's post.

Glad to know my experience is appreciated....
I was just told by a company that 8.5 cpl as an IC was too high, even with 20+ years of experience!
That is a wonderful benefit...and I am sure your daughter appreciated you being there...

THANK YOU giddy pc guru! Your help is greatly appreciated.
