!I agree no name. We aren't going to a new RESTAURANT
I've seen this kind of pre-hype for new restaurants going to open - billboards, phone calls, tv ads.
But I'm with you - don't waste my time with calling me on the darn phone to
ask me if I got some nonsensical letter that was less than informative, and
then have the person on the other end of the line be dumb as dirt.
 lost my number, will ya!

How about gift certificates to her favorite restaurant? ATT long-distance phone card so she can cal
My siblings and hubby and his siblings started doing this a few years ago and they were a big hit. We also used to buy my grandparents gift certificates to the local grocery store and they would use them to buy treats form themselves, things they wouldn't ordinarily buy for themselves. Hope this helps.
LOTS and LOTS of video tapes and DVDs.

My Fave?
Arkansas cake (banana cake with no frosting!) Ooooyum! It's rip roaring good!! Wash that down with some mountain Dew and you got one of the best taste treats that would rival any five star restaurnat BAR NONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ops are my fave
Years ago when I worked inhouse and was training to do MTing, I was literally scared to death of ops. My boss lady did me the biggest favor of all. She noticed I did not pick the tapes (yes, tapes) for the ops, only choosing others and 1 day I think she was a little upset with me and put me exclusively on ops for about 3 months. Can I say thank you now! I can yo-yo on ops, I don't have any saved so most of my are word by word but most of the physicians I transcribed say the same thing over and over. I have now worked on the same acct for 18 years and I just about know what they are going to say next. Easy money for me. Don't care for H&Ps nor DS, they only slow me down.
Who's your fave Beatle?
John, Paul, George & Ringo - my fave is John. So creative and brilliant - such a senseless loss...
She's my fave, too. I don't force anyone into my car either.
What is your fave browser?
Mine is Firefox - love how fast it is, plus tabbed browsing rules! Much better and safer than old Internet Explorer, I must say. BTW, the newest version of Firefox comes out today (free download) which is supposed 2B even better! 
My fave's VEGAS!
Anything Vegas is romantic to me......
Go there and find the best suite you can at one of the finer hotels; i.e., Bellagio, Mandalay Bay, Wynne, and then make reservations at some of the five-star restaurants - then top it off with a fine show, a few hands of black jack, a couple of Black Russians, and a helicopter ride over the strip at night, then if you have time, go to the top of the Stratosphere at their lounge and have another Black Russian. That view is TOTALLY romantic!
Whereever you choose, though, I have you have a totally romantic time!
here's one fave from my archives...sm
i had a young neurosurgeon dictating an extremely complicated brain surgery while on his cell phone in his sports car...all of a sudden i hear the engine screaming (sounded like a ferrari!) and him saying, "sh**...I gotta make this light, hold on..." which was followed by nothing but ENGINE noise for a few seconds, then a brief pause, and he calmly continued dictating his complex report...talk about multitasking...i'll never forget that one. :)
My husband's fave........
A good steak and angel hair/broccoli/shrimp on the side. I make it like a scampi and pour over the angel hair/broccoli. Bon appetit!
ER reports are my fave
They are always different and therefore interesting, and the docs always seem in a hurry so they talk fast and I fly through them which makes the line counts rack up really fast.
Carpet cleaner? Flea spray? Chemicals used inside his car? Restaurant food? New vitamins? Cold

What's your fave Beatle song?
Hey Jude 4 me! 
my fave: How to lose a guy in 10 days (nm)
also the wedding planner.
Very HOT!!!!
my fave movie too....but not for Costner...nm
or this one is my fave tons of work..
There usually is for thre first three months at most..then nothing. I have no problem working on the hard accounts, but when it gets down to $30-$50 a day at most, it gets very frustrating. One spends all day logging in a looking for work to find one or two jobs. When you can't pay your bills, you have to move on. I want to find a company that consistently has the work...have yet to find it.....
I want to learn Spanish so when go to my fave

Smoky Mtns are my NEXT fave place in US!..sm
Spent a lot of time in TN, Smokies back in the 80s, when my child was little....Dollywood, biscuits and gravy, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, I love TN and NC. Probably my 2nd fave place in the US.
Who R your fave music artists/groups?
I looove Joni Mitchell, Karla Bonoff, Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Dixie Chicks, Elton John, Beatles, Eminem...
This is my all-time fave. You can do partial names also
and it will list all the doctors with the same names, and then you choose the appropriate one. I cut and paste the doc's name and addresses into letters. Super easy.

Candy corn is my fave, but not the Sam's Choice stuff. Eww. The only chocolate I really love is S
what's on Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. I always wonder what it is that they do to their chocolate to make it so good.
They bring it on themselves.
and then expect everyone else to overlook the facts.
* According to the latest US Department of Justice survey of crime victims, more than 6.6 million violent crimes (murder, rape, assault and robbery) are committed in the US each year, of which about 20 per cent, or 1.3 million, are inter-racial crimes.
* Most victims of race crime - about 90 per cent - are white, according to the survey “Highlights from 20 Years of Surveying Crime Victims", published in 1993.
* Almost 1 million white Americans were murdered, robbed, assaulted or raped by black Americans in 1992, compared with about 132,000 blacks who were murdered, robbed, assaulted or raped by whites, according to the same survey.
* Blacks thus committed 7.5 times more violent inter-racial crimes than whites even though the black population is only one-seventh the size of the white population. When these figures are adjusted on a per capita basis, they reveal an extraordinary disparity: blacks are committing more than 50 times the number of violent racial crimes of whites.
* According to the latest annual report on murder by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, most inter-racial murders involve black assailants and white victims, with blacks murdering whites at 18 times the rate that whites murder blacks.
These breathtaking disparities began to emerge in the mid-1960s, when there was a sharp increase in black crime against whites, an upsurge which, not coincidentally, corresponds exactly with the beginning of the modern civil rights movement. Over time, the cumulative effect has been staggering. Justice Department and FBI statistics indicate that between 1964 and 1994 more than 25 million violent inter-racial crimes were committed, overwhelmingly involving black offenders and white victims, and more than 45,000 people were killed in inter-racial murders. By comparisons 58,000 Americans died in Vietnam, and 34,000 were killed in the Korean war.When non-violent crimes (burglary, larceny, car theft and personal theft) are included, the cumulative totals become prodigious. The Bureau of Justice Statistics says 27 million non-violent crimes were committed in the US in 1992, and the survey found that 31 per cent of the robberies involved black offenders and white victims (while only 2 per cent in the reverse).
When all the crime figures are calculated, it appears that black Americans have committed at least 170 million crimes against white Americans in the past 30 years. It is the great defining disaster of American life and American ideals since World War II. All these are facts, yet by simply writing this story, by assembling the facts in this way, I would be deemed a racist by the American news media. It prefers to maintain a paternalistic double-standard in its coverage of black America, a lower standard.
Not to mention drugs, irresponsible reproducing habits, and welfare fraud. Gee, they have an attitude? Aw, too bad.
then you should bring it to someone's
attention. My paycheck has always been correct.
Sure - bring it on! nm

Bring it on!!!

She'd bring home more at 30 CPL...
...but do I deserve that for just sitting on my arse and typing? :) No.
Gas stations make a lot of money. Why do attendants only get minimum wage.
If you're THAT good, you'd be an MTSO.
Start your own business. Don't be lazy AND greedy.
I have them at my desk but no, I don't bring anything
to the living room to work. I've been on my same accounts with each company I work for since I started with them and I know the dictators extremely well.
I have an advantage with Spheris that I don't with MQ in that I can look up past reports by any criteria - by dictator, by patient, etc., to find anything that is a pattern.
The only book I occasionally reference is Tessier's The Surgical Word Book. Other than that, I have many online refences provided by both companies that they specifically want me to use.
I've done this over 20 years and I'm very fortunate -- I just don't have to look many things up anymore. When I do, it is usually a new product - instrument, drug, procedure, treatment, etc. Yesterday, I had to look up "Fansler speculum", which I had never had before. Probably refer to that book maybe 2-3 times a week. Spheris always sends me a new updated word list that includes newest information about every month. MTDesk has some really good references.
I have well over 70 websites that are "favorites" for reference.
When I travel and want to work, I only take The Surgical Word Book with me.
Effect (bring about)

bring a magnet
whenever you go to look at a car. A magnet will not stick to Bondo.
I don't want to bring them to an office!! ???
Happy doing it this way! It works for me, and my MTSO has not complained once!
like to bring the QA issue to the top
There was a discussion about how MTs would prefer QA to handle correction situations. Here's an example. Right now doing QA on several "new" MTs that were kind of thrown into a new account. They were all suppose to be very well qualified and only suppose to review for "format" issues. Well.....spending a great deal of time adding text that was left out, changing things transcribed that was totally off the wall, besides the format part just not getting yet. I try to be as 'tactful" as I possibly can, offer useful tips, give websites for lokking up info, etc. But right now falling so behind and still making same "format" corrections I was two weeks ago because still not getting it right or just not reading E-mails!! Our responsibilities only go so far. We have to help but you also have to help yourself. Don't transcribe anything you haven't documented somewhere and NEVER leave words out!! That's my 2 cents!! 
If you can't outsource, then bring them here
Just stopping the flow of records overseas is not going to solve the problem. There is a special class of visa that industry can turn to if they cannot find enough American workers to do a job. This has been used for engineers, IT professionals and nurses among others. It is not necessarily that there are not Americans that can do the job, but that they will not do it for a low wage. We need to pay attention to the immigration debate as well. It isn't simply about poorly educated, low-skilled workers being involved in a guest worker program.
I bring laptop when I go away
The big problem I find is with our model there is a touch pad under space bar that you use as a mouse. Occasionally, I hit that while working, and it makes my cursor move or page up/down. I would suggest buying a mouse for it.
