craig's list

Not all craig's list posts are scams. I actually found one of my accounts on craig's list and have been transcribing for this particular group for about a year and a half. I did see the job posting you are talking about and I agree with the other posters....This one looks fishy. It's probably one of those we will train you but you have to pay for it scams... Stay away.

Try Craig's List on either......sm
"computer" or place in "wanted" in your area. That's how I got mine recently.
I got off Craig's List
the guy even installed, think 60.00 charge.
I am seeing all over Craig's List where I live
from $50 to $100.
Craig's list products
Is buying off a website like that, or from another person, like pirating?  Most likely cannot get a license to use this and would be a waste of money??
Ever read Craig's List, mistakes all over the place
saw an ad for candels this morning- now I might would have let it go in the heading but then in the body of the post spelled the same way. English has gone down quite a bit, no one seems to be able to spell anymore.
Jenny Craig

Anyone know how much Jenny's food costs?   I went to their website, but apparently the price of the food is classified information.  TIA.


Jenny Craig cost of food
I tried a good 10 years ago and it cost me about $300 a month.  I wasn't too impressed with the program.  I stayed on it for 2 months and only lost 7 pounds.  Finally quit and just really increased my workouts and then the weight really came off.  I now keep my weight down and have taken off additional weight with working out 5 times a week as well as sticking to low-cal/low-fat prepacked meal packages like Lean Cuisine and Healthy Choice.  Much more economical and get great results with them. 
medical abbreviation list and medical drug list
Hi,

Anyone there who could help me out finding the latest abbreviations list.
I even want the latest drug list because my current program does not have many drugs.

So if anyone could suggest anything which is available online for informationd quick look purposes.

any help for medical abbreviation list and medical drug list would be very helpful.

not me. Sometimes I even wonder if I'm on the list...sm

his parents are elderly and are quite good at being graciously demanding. As soon as he walks in the door at 4:00 p.m., the phone is ringing wondering when he will be over to shovel the snow off of their walk - and they don't even leave the house. I definitely feel he puts his parents before me. Like the line "I knew it was over when...", when for our 25th anniversary, he gave me a $2.99 bouquet the night before and then planned to go to his mom's for dinner the night of. Not divorced, can't quite get to that but have the same fantasies of running away and boy, then would he be sorry  . Breaks my heart to hear people calling each other soulmates as I believe I will never have that.


It's pn my wish list too,
but the one I tried out in the store had so many hard spots in it, I don't think it would be very comfortable to sit in all day.
wish list
I wish to find a company that:
Goes by lines/production and lets me have a window (12 or 24 hrs)instead of keeping a timecard.
Does not use a platform!! Maybe just has an FTP site or something, download the voice, then upload the jobs when done.
Not constantly IM'ing me!
this list
Would love to see a copy of this as well. Thanks.
I won't list them all but -

my hubby absolutely cracks me up.  He has a wonderful sense of humor and makes me laugh everyday (even on those "bad" days).  He tells me daily that he loves me or asks me "Do you know how much I love you?"  He is the only man I have ever been in love with AND trusted. 


 


here's my list sm
Survivor
Amazing Race
Desperate Housewives
Grey's Anatomy
Lost
Invasion
Medium
Switch with ER and Without a trace
Criminal minds

I have no life.
if there's more than 1 med, I'd list...

Here's the list....sm
Dogs: Shaina, Tiger & Taffy
Cats: Pearl, Ribbon, Samson, Ember & Hollow
Rabbit: Bonnie
Goldfish: Barbie

YES, we have a lot of pets! I had 1 dog, 1 cat, 1 bunny and the goldfish and when we got married last month my husband had the 4 cats and 2 dogs... so now we have a full house for sure!!!

No GAB on my list either
How do I get the GAB on my list? 
here is a list of what i did
Completely and totally uninstall ANY remant you have of the program.  Then try a reinstall.  If that does not work, I would suggest calling Stedmans...they may have a patch.  I didn't get a new dictionary until the 2007 version so there may be something in there that they can give you to solve the issue.
when I do that, I have to do it for each list, is there a way...
to make it stay that way all of the time?
the list so far

OK- so far I have pixked up from the responses the following. I have not been able to process them fully to determine if a full course is needed as of yet.


1- need to learn format-           Would this be similar to writing up charts? Or do MTs have their own format in which they follow? We learned many different ways (or formats) to write up charts in school- and had the freedom to choose which worked best for us individually in our practice. A specific MT format would be something to learn in a class if they have one of their own. I've  written my own charts for many years, so if it is similar to that- then I should pick it up quick.


2- need to develop or experiment with hand -eye- listening skill for pedal/typing/translating -           I have very good hand eye coordination from being a dentist and performing procedures. And type fairly fast. I suppose I could figure out how to try out the devices before determining if it was something I wanted to do.


3- need to listen to some actual tapes-             good idea. I am sure they are unlike the tapes of lectures that I transcribed in Dental School. I have watched my ENT mumble into his recorder in amazement many a time.


4- might be dissapointed in the difference in pay-                definately something I already had considered. I am not looking for the same compensation. I don't expect it. I still have an office to go back to when I am ready - and do locum tennans here and there.  I have no idea what an MT makes. What do they make?


 Thanks- Susan

list

Try this site:


www.mtdaily.com/mtcos.html.


It lists companies by state with web sites and contacts.  This is how I found the job I have now.  Good luck and best wishes.


Ok, here's my list......
1. Coffee
2. AC - Have to be cool (it's 93 in southern CA today)
3. Quiet
4. Burt's Bee's lip balm.
5. Hand lotion
6. My desk/chair/keyboard all adjusted just right.
7. Snacks like grapes or yogurt-covered raisins.

I think that covers it!!

nuclear medicine scans
PET/PET-CT

and a slew of special procedures (invasive) such as:

arteriorgrams
angioplasties
epidural injections
biopsies
to name a few.
Thanks, but I have that list.
I have to follow the BOS 3rd edition for my company so I can't ignore it (unfortunately). I seem to have a lot of trouble finding what I need quickly in that book. I guess my brain is not organized in the same manner. Every time I read it I find something new.
As far as I know, there is not any list --sm
that can be imported into AutoText. You have to enter manually.
We can only use the list they provide

Hard to find when you're not sure what the name is even starting with. Even with a data base of 1,000 physicians, it's constant searching. I use the search option and try to search for just one tiny part of the name I can understands, but it takes forever!


I found the list. If anyone else is looking sm.

Go to CNN.com homepage, click on the story about family looking for missing loved ones. On the top of that story page there is a link called "Safe List."  That lists the names of everyone that has reported in as being safe.


Unfortunately, Andre Pouliot from Biloxi, Mississippi is not on that list. That is who we are looking for.


Thank you again.  We'll keep looking.


OTI should be on the good list too.
If you like flexible hours, decent accounts, no harassment from the office but plenty of good tech support, and IC status so you work your own schedule. If that's what you're looking for, OTI is a great place to work.
drug list
Does anyone know of a site to download/print a drug list (quarterly drug index)?  The one I have is old and the IDI I have is from 1999.
You just put yourself on the list with Walmart (sm)
You really just listed yourself in a class of people that don't deserve much credit either.  You are upset with Target because they don't support the military...however shortly thereafter you made it clear of your feelings about gays and lesbians.  Have you ever stopped to think about how many of those young men and women over there in harms way every moment of their life are gay?  Or do you only "recognize" the heterosexual soldiers?  Gotta love a hypocrite that bashes someone else for categorizing people...yet fail to see how they manage to lodge their own foot in their mouth in the process. 
Wal Mart on my poo list
I went to Wal Mart as I always do. I wanted the laptop for $386. I work two jobs and really wanted to be able to remove myself from my desk to do personal stuff wherever or do my coding job away while watching tv. They only had 25 of them. I was like 35 in line. I cannot believe that is all they got in. Then I went to get the PS2 Burnout 3 game (I needed two copies) and the Scooby Doo double pack for Gameboy. They did not get extra ones in even though they advertised them for $8. They had what was in the case only, which was one of each. Oh boy how stupid. Then I got a few things like jammie bottoms and a remote control hummer for my son and the lines were awful. They were handing out these VCR/DVD combos that were not the right ones so people were MAD.
drug list
Yeah, RXList is a good one. I also like www.drugdigest.com.
See the lonnnnggggg list:

$875.00 for mortage - $289.00 for health insurance - $508 for car payment - $68 for monthly car insurance - $220 for Electric/Gas - $155 for telephone - $39 for cell phone - $900 plus for CC payments - I guess that's enough, eh?  We spend about $500 for groceries and another $300 for cigs/booze/wine - about $300.00 for going out to eat (we're home bodies).  I sock away $337.00/month in my IRA and then skim 10 percent off the top of our earnings and throw in savings/CD - we spend a little extra on renting movies/books, etc. 


I can't believe it costs SO MUCH to live these days!!


Anyone know where I can get a list of new drugs
nm
List of abbreviations
Yes, they are quite certain how wonderful that "dangerous abbreviations" list is, but don't kid yourself. There are quite a few physicians out there/facilities who don't care for the list and want abbreviations (and dictate them too) the former way; --- q.i.d., q.o.d., t.i.w., q. week, q. Monday, Wednesday, Friday, etc. Shall I go on? I know because I've transcribed from physicians dictating just this way. The docs want it THEIR WAY. Get over yourself.
call list

We began getting sales calls again, so my husband went back and resubmitted the information. We haven't gotten any since. It might be something you have to do annually. I don't know. It can't hurt to try though.


Are you on the Do Not Call LIst? sm
not saying this is the case, but a lot of times these calls are initiated by a computer.  the computer calls, you answer, but there's no operator on the computer end to finish the call.  I signed up for the do not call list when it first came up.  The silence was wonderful.  Then I moved - very irritating indeed!  I'm back on it and back to silence!
What do you mean IT makes a list for you?
How do you get it to do this?
Schindler's List - now that was a .....nm

There is a whole list of these types
of things I got through my MT training classes. To make the ' over the e in debride, you would do Alt + 233 on your number pad. Let me know if it works. good luck.
Make a list
Make a list of what you love about him and what you hate and see which list is bigger.  You haven't mentioned a single reason for staying with this person.  Sometimes it's hard to make a break, but think ahead to days without stress and arguing.
No -- I have a list of over 1000 new ones
--that's just the new ones, not counting the 2nd and 3rd year residents. Too many new names.
Thanks, all of you. I am making a list.
I have a discount code for Stedman's from a comapny I tested for so I guess I'll go for it. 30% off doesn't hurt.
Fix your resume to fit the job. I do not list
Never had a problem.  Most places are in a hurry to get you started and don't check.  My jobs have been 4+ years (or at least that's what my resume says).  They won't check with the competition.
To print list
You can print a list of all of the "autotext" by opening word, FILE, PRINT (or ALT F, P) and in bottom Lft corner in the "Print What" section select "Autotext entries" and OK. If you have a lot this will print a lot mine would do about 150 pages.

BE AWARE - This will print everything. You can print just a list of the AUTOCORRECT entries but you have to creat a macro which is not hard. This too however will print all of the autocorrects, like when it automatically changes "adn" to "and". But, if you have to have this list you can just run through and delete the normal corrections and keep a list of your entries.

If you want to email me I will be more than happy to send you the instructions and the macro. It was simple to do, just a matter of making sure the macro info was in the right spot.
I'd probably do it but you need to make a list - sm
of pros and cons to it versus your home IC job. Break it all down and then it should be clearer to you. I am currently thinking of getting out too, so I can have a life at home. All I do is sit at the computer, every day and night. My kids really hate it. I do break to help the kids out with homework and projects but sometimes it is hard to do so because I have a deadline to meet, and on those nights where I help them I end up staying up until 12 or 1, then getting up at 5:30 so I have an hour or so to work before getting them off to school. So I am generally always tired and then I work a lot slower. It sucks. So I am thinking of applying for an 8-5 job about 20 minutes away that is offering $30-42K that is right up my alley and which is a lot more than I make now. It will make things harder in terms of afterschool activities, Brownies, dance and twirling; but I guess if I am lucky enough to get a job offer I will have to see what I can work out at least for the Brownies (every other Monday at 3:15 at a location I have to drive them to); dance is not an issue as the school bus can take them there; and twirling is at their school; so not an issue except I'd have to leave work about 90 minutes early to pick them up unless my DH is around to do it (luckily this is only a temporary thing they are taking). So there are sacrifices to everything. In my case I would actually have more time with my kids and my stress factor would drop, my income would go up and I'd have some great benefits (state job). I am going to try for it as I have nothing to lose. If I get lucky enough to get this job I still plan to do MT, though only about 8-10,000 lines a month; gas money basically; but at least I can do it after the kids go to bed and still get to bed by 11. I am scared just to apply as things will change a lot here but again, I have nothing to lose by trying and can always say no.
Patient list.
I too get a faxed list. However, the physicians use the list first and mark the patients they have dictated on. Then I check off as I transcribe. They do not ask for the list back, but if I notice any that the physician has marked that I did not transcribe, I let them know. In my experience doctors usually swear that they dictated the note and tend to get upset if they have to redictate later. I have worked inhouse in medical records so I also know how frustrating it is when a note is missing. The tendency is usually to blame the Transcriptionist if a note is missing, so it is nice to have that list if something comes up. However, at this office a staff member there goes through and double checks to make sure that the dictation is there. It all makes for a good relationship with the client in my opinion.
PT word list
Is there anyone out there that could give me a website with a good terminology list for Physical Therapy?  Thanks a bunch! 
list the name of the company already!
You are already being given the stall job and they should not get away with it. Let this company know you will contact THEIR CLIENT - to advise you may sue, and I promise you they will pay you ASAP.

IF the MTSO is having a legitimate problem processing payment THEY should contact you, apologize, offer a truthful explanation and expedited payment. If they don't show you this courtesy why would/should you protect their name?
