Your wording is confusing.

In Reply to: Giving notice as an IC... - Advice needed...
An IC would DO work for a clinic not work at and you would not resign as you are not an employee - that is an employee term. I would simply tell them you are cutting back on the amount of work you can handle. You control the amount of work - not them if you are truly an IC.

Does anyone know the wording for...
It has a penny so you're never broke, string, eraser, different little objects that "fix" things. I saw it in a magazine and can't find it out. Thanks if you can share it.
strange wording
"The patient is doing well from his colon cancer point of view."
Colons have opinions? Oh yeah, that's right. Everyone has one, opinions and colons, and the other part of the anatomy which shall remain nameless, from which originates some people's opinions.
Dear Moderator, the wording is what it is. sm
If I had meant new MTs, I would have said so. So, to be clearer, I define wannabes as the individuals who claim to want to be MTs but fail to deliver the necessary skill set. This would not include individuals who understand what skills and knowledge the MT vocation requiresand know how to apply that skill set in their delivery of quality work.
I am going to look into their specific wording on this today
and post here tomorrow what i find.
Opinions/impressions, please, on wording enclosed.
Please help me with the wording of this letter that I am seriously considering sending to one of my offices:
Please inform Dr. XXX that in the future any dictations that are done in the swimming pool area, karate room, cafeteria or other public venues will not be transcribed by this service. This decision has been made due to the fact that the dictation is difficult to hear and understand because of the amount of background noise.
Additionally, I believe this to be a breech of the confidentiality of patient records that are mandated by HIPAA and I do not agree to be a part of such violation.
Any future dictations that are submitted by this physician which have been done in the above-named situations will not be transcribed by this service and will be immediately discarded.
Thank you for your understanding in this matter.
Sincerely,
(end)
There is a new doctor in one of the practices with small children and she's one of those who is trying to be supermom. (That's a whole other issue.) I have transcribed for two other (male) doctors in this practice for over 15 years without anything like this. I have twice now asked the office manager to tell her about this situation and it improved for a short while but today I had 18 minutes of very loud swim practice in the background. Her solution appears to be talk louder and I've got one HUGE headache after listening to her. I don't understand why she has to be right there instead of even finding a quiet spot to do this while the kids are occupied but she apparently thinks they can't be out of her sight. (I know they're unsupervised, either; I can hear the coach shouting.) Among the reasons listed above, I really want to say that I think this is just flat out disrepectful of both patients and myself but I don't think it is wise to get that personal. I really don't want to lose this practice but I honestly am not willing to put up with this nonsense from her anymore, either.
Thanks in advance for any HELPFUL suggestions you might have. If you're not willing to help, that's fine, too, but please keep the mean stuff to yourself.
Be careful in your wording. Wannabe's? If you're referring to new MTs, then say so. It's

Need help on wording to Google area hospitals that hire MTs at home
Everything I put in gives me sites like MTDaily, etc., that have stuff about work-at-home programs and work-at-home information. I would like to find out which hospitals here in my area hire MTs to work at home so that I can apply as I have just found out that my company is about to sink. Any advice appreciated. Thanks.
That's seems confusing,

NM confusing
I don't know about any of this. All this is so confusing. Just started looking here and am finding even trying to understand how to get into this to post a question very confusing, so think some people could be a little more patient and understanding.
Is confusing to me. SM
My hubby has this too and gets bonus in December, however, on the quarterly report for the 401K it shows employer match plus separate figure for profit sharing. So, I'm thinking the bonus is not the same as the profit sharing in his case.
Thanks, it is so confusing
and has plaqued me for many years and I have placed stickies about it in the past but can't seem to find them now in the mound of papers around my desk. I will try and keep this somewhere so I can find it!!!!
confusing
My interpretation was as I stated, just don't understand the fake resume etc. It seems though it was initiated by a US MT, but who knows there is always two sides. I just feel at this time with electronic records and our trarnscription there is nothing to protect MTs no matter where we work. A fair day's work deserves a fair day's pay for whomever.
Confusing
I never said everyone should live on what I make. I am comfortable and satisfied with how much I make. That is what the thread was talking about. To tell the truth, I don’t have to work but I still do because I love my work and it has been part of my life now for so many years. I read horror stories about people who retire and don’t live long after that and just like to make money, I guess. I was comfortable even BEFORE he and I married because years ago when I was divorced and raising my children did not let grass grow under me and worked as much as I needed to have what I wanted, nice vacations then too. I am satisfied, if youre not, then that is you.
I think you're confusing her with
Jennifer "pity poor little me" Aniston.
much to=too confusing...geesh....nm

It is confusing. But it's the only way to actually judge how much you are...
getting paid for the exact same amount of work. As long as you work with the same big block of text, it works perfectly.
th is is confusing. Can you clarify what you mean,

your message is very confusing but
I would say to go with a computer based digital phone that has unlimited long distance, i.e. vonage, sage, time warner, etc.
You are confusing your terms.
Software is the computer interface that allows you to perform a certain task, in this case, FTP software allows your computer to connect to an FTP site. If you're looking for an FTP site that is secure, you will more than likely have to pay for it. You can try www.ftptogo.com, although it is not free, it is a good site.
The new upgrade was confusing to me and I just
figured out that it was set to send it to QA automatically. So annoying. There are a lot of things being corrected in my reports that I know are right too.
Hope this does not sound too confusing
It is an IP address inside of an IP address. Basically when working with a VPN, you connect to a server. Once these 2 computers are connected, then you are sent to the next IP address within the original IP address. While there, a VPN constantly changes the IP address to make it very hard to break into.
Hope this helps :)
Boy, you guys are confusing. Are you talking to me or to her?
HAHAH
This is confusing. An independent contractor IS

Consistency is the key. It is confusing to them if you are inconsistent.

you are confusing RSI with carpal tunnel
I'm not having a problem with my wrists. It's all the tendons in my fingers. Funny thing, I posted the message after having gone to Best Buy and clickey-clacking through all their keyboards. They are all stiff too. I am looking for something that you can just barely touch the keys so my tendons aren't so strained.
Excuse me for being confusing, lol. No pun intended. SM
Yes, I did mean vertical. I have no problem with adding to my favorites list or moving/organizing them where I want them. It's that the list has, somehow, re-arranged itself into alpha order.
The confusing part was that they acted as if
think they would be the very best themselves. I was so disappointed and upset by that experience that I felt apprehensive about the entire MT field after the mess was over. However, I did get a job and have been working for almost 4 years now in the field. I work for a small company. The owner tells me constantly how much she appreciates me and feels lucky to have me. --and I tell her the same thing! -and boy do I mean it. :)
I was not going to post anything about Toth, but the more I thought about it.... well, I also would not wany anyone to go through what I did.
your posts are confusing and vague, but--
I think what I am reading is that you have a computer now with only one plug in and that's for the monitor. You never specify if your pedal is a 9-pin, 15-pin, or USB. I can only assume that it is either a 9-pin or 15-pin, as somewhere in your posts, you stated that you DID have USB ports.
Ok, that being said, the pedal with the 9-pin or 15-pin needs what they call a *game port* in order to be plugged in. These *game ports* used to be on the sound card. *game ports* have pretty much become obsolete and opted for the USB ports as they are easy and simple. The lady below who said Google 9-pin to USB adaptor was correct. That is what you need. However, not all adaptors will work either, as the *pins* on the foot pedal are wired in such a way that one pin will make your left pedal work, another your right pedal work, etc. Alot of adaptors are not set up for that and still will not work. I had a 9-pin foot pedal as well, actually still do, packed away some where, which I never go to use as no adaptors would work. I purchased a USB pedal and will never get another 9-pin pedal again. These are *old* technology and pretty much obsolete now, as USB has taken over. You can try the adaptors, but don't get your hopes up. Some have luck with them, and some don't. If you go back to RS, write this down on a piece of paper... 9-pin to USB adaptor. and on a side note, the foot pedal will not work if you are looking for an adaptor for where the monitor plugs in. It is a totally different plug in. Radio Shack personnel are not up to speed on foot pedals and plug ins, trust me on that one. Most of them look at you like you're nuts anyway. Good luck!!!
Aren't you people confusing SS with disability?
I was under the impression that there was no limit on income when your retire on SS. But, there is a limit if you are on SS disability. And I believe that amount is around $900. However, if you are on disability, they also count how many hours you work. If you are making $900 or less, but working more than part-time hours (something like more than 16-20 hours), that could still disqualify you for disability. So, I'm confused on this too. But back to the SS retirement discussion, I thought back in the Clinton Administration, they passed legislation that made it more profitable for retirees to work once they started receiving their SS retirement. I was glad to hear this as many retirees want to work and they shouldn't be penalized. After all, the income taxe and SS taxe and Medicare tax goes into the big government kitty, so working retirees benefit everyone. I'm a believer in keeping retirees busy and bringing in income if they so wish. Well, Doxie, I am on your side. You asked a simple question and why some are beating up on you is puzzling to me. You asked a legitimate question. But if you really need to keep it at $900 or less, just divide your line rate into $900, take that answer and divide by four, and that will be the amount of lines you want to stay under per week. -
Great post -great job of wording your answer! (sm)
Original poster - I completely agree with this answer, especially the part about finding yourself and using all that you have learned intellectually and connecting that to something that you will also enjoy with your heart!! You have so many wonderful options for your future - much more than many of us.
U R confusing official definition of professional with "popular" definition...sm
the official definition is those jobs like physicians, PA's, NP's, law, etc. Not something you do for a long time or what your job is. The popular definition for profession is what you do. Same thing with vocation, a official definition would hold to calling, such as clergy or nuns or missionaries... popular would say what's your job. So depends if you are looking for the popular definitions vs. the official definitions, though I will say some very ignorant people posting on the topic...
You're confusing the new QA plan with the new pay plan. New pay plan is still completely under wr
Shhhhhhhhhhh....
