In Reply to: To all the whiners, this is sm - Food for thought
I'm all for being honest so here it is: The cost of living has continued to rise while our pay has continued to drop.
Many of us are single moms or have husbands who are laid off making us the sole breadwinner right now. No, we don't have the inherent extra expenses that go along with working outside the home, but we DO have rent/mortgages, utilities, insurance, taxes, and school expenses to pay for and food to buy.
We don't have the luxury of working part-time...we have to scrape and claw and fight for every possible line we can get every single day just to survive. Many of us are fighting a war that you'll never see covered on the nightly news.
If we don't keep speaking out about this -- who will? We HAVE to stand up for ourselves because no one else is going to!
There's your honesty. If you're not personally in this situation, then count your blessings.

Not rare
I had an account where a company of dictators (not doctors, but PACs I think) was hired specifically to do dictations of discharge summaries. There was a lot of shuffling of papers, but some of them did quite well, considering they probably never met the patient, and I was happy that clear-speaking people were hired to do the dictations of a few very heavy ESL MDs. I don't know how accurate the dictation was, but it sure made my job a lot easier. I have to admit that I wouldn't want my own reports as a patient dictated by an outside person, though.
$35 an hour! lol That is so rare for MTs now.
Maybe 5 years ago. Not anymore. I do both and make more with QA :)
It is so rare that I have no work that I use
that time to do things I don't normally have time to do, like clean and organize my house, get to some of those craft projects I've been wanting to do. If you have been that long without work it is time to start looking.
That's awesome and very rare, I'm sure!
listen - it's a RARE MT who could do 4000 LPD..
can also use your cell phone but it's rare
If you have bluetooth technology on your cell phone, you can get a cheap bluetooth plug-in for your laptop and use the cell phone as sort of a modem. Good luck trying to do it, though :*( I have Verizon and have everything I need but they have some double-knot top secret spy access phone number that they don't give out. If you can somehow get that number, you can connect anywhere you can get phone service. (and if you can get it, PUHLEEEEASE let me know it! LOL) I think that most, if not all, of the major cell phone providers have this same capability.
Barring that, you can get a card from your laptop maker (i.e., Dell).
Here's a link to Sprint's mobile broadband card. Through 6/17/07, they have a promotion going and the card itself is free after a $49.99 mail-in rebate. You have to sign up for their service, which is $59.99/month if you have their voice service (i.e., you have a Sprint cell phone and calling service) or $79.99/month if you don't.

Verizon has several mobile broadband cards (you want one that is 'Rev A' compatible/capable). Here's a link to a page with all of them and their prices ($9.99-$179.99) which are 2-year contract prices.

They have 2 plans: National Access $59.99/month & Broadband Access $79.99/month.
Hope this all helps!

It is rare, but not extinct to receive a
reply regarding how you fared on your test. For those of you who are presently going through this situation, I would suggest going back and reading the email you sent requesting the information. Often times online, the inflections in our words are misconstrued. You may be wasting time imaging the worst.
Second solution; just forward a copy of your original email to them; it only takes 10 seconds.
It is so rare that people sell their used
IT software, and when I've seen it up for sale, the person selling usually wants $150 or even more for it.
I purchased mine new from Textware Solutions. It just wasn't worth it to me to wait for someone to put one up for sale and you have to count on them to get the license transfer done, I think. With the extra production I'm able to do with it, I figure the software paid for itself in a month.
It would be very rare to be paid by the hour
while working at home. Too many variables and too many people would take advantage
It's rare to have ops offered out here, anymore. The keep them in house more and more. nm

They aren't that rare. I've worked with SM
bunches of them. Unfortunately, my experience with them boils down to this: The men who do this usually are the men who can't get along in a work environment with a lot of other men.
Hourly QA seems to range $13-18/hr. with rare few making
s
If you work for a smaller MTSO, it is rare that
they offshore. I work for a small one FT and another one as an IC, and there has never been talk of them offshoring. A lot of the smaller MTSOs don't.
Well, you're a rare one... mostly I get newbies demanding I hire them...sm
for a variety of reasons- because I really-really-really want this job, because I have to work at home to take care of my kids/mother/handicapped sister/old dog, because how can I get experience if you DON'T hire me, etc. etc. Most can't pass a grammar test to show they can use effect/affect effectively, and some even reply with emails riddled with typos and sloppy work. So good for you, but you're about one in a million...sad to say
It's a rare place that pays extra for CMT. 8-8.5 cpl is the average for anyone right
s
Some rare purchases of this made on eBay for around $40, but doubt
s
Except, you are in the minority. It's RARE when MTSOs actually pay extra for CMTs.

Probably something to do with carpal tunnel - The rare times mine acts up - sm
my thumbs get weird and trembly (?). I suspect that is your problem. Try changing your keyboard position, if you have it raised, make it flat, and visa versa. On my backup computer I have to have the keyboard raised but on my everyday PC I have it flat, and my CTS does not bother me now that I have my keyboards situated well for me.
I'm expensive, .15 & .17 for my accounts, no extra for stats which are rare. Bay area CA. nm
