You'll notice this person didn't sign their name --fishy??? nm

I didn't notice George Lopez head but I think I noticed Dave because he is
skinny and standing next to Carmen E. you can't help but notice how out of proportion it is. He is a bobble head.
Not a blast, but....
puhleez, kids are SO overindulged and treated these days that it's ridiculous. I was a kid in the 60s/70s and everybody I know recalls the same memories.... If you stepped foot in a resturant once a YEAR, it was a miracle. That was for your parents to go out and do. Nowadays you can't go into a restaurant without listening to mobs of screaming toddlers throwing silverware on the floors and breaking up crackers everywhere. Same with theaters... We NEVER went to a walk in theater, it was the drive-in or nothing. Of course now that there are no drive ins, I guess people could keep their kids home to watch the DVD until they're old enough to sit still and quiet at the movies. And finally, as for vacations... We went on car trips, sat in the back seat without any DVD or video game. And we had fun. But we certainly didn't feel entitled to do everything our parents did. Kids today want it all. I think it's perfectly okay for 2 people to have a few days to themselves without guilt. I'm sure their kids do p-l-e-n-t-y.
Blast away
I couldn't care less how any one responds to my posts. This is not real life and I don't get emotional over this board other than to laugh at the cat fights.
If I need to vent, I talk to real people.
that's a blast from the past
I remember that term from years ago.
I did a Google search and the closest I got was a Maxwell Sweetheart retractor: http://www.snowdenpencer.com/snowden/dspcatalog.nsf/b7e010000d3e8e708525666e004dfec2/0174ad87011670c085256673005b0e34?OpenDocument
If you read the first paragraph, it's referring to the shape of the blade ... so my guess is if you can have a heart-shaped blade with a retractor, why not with the tenaculum.
Op notes are a blast (well for me they are fun!)
I love doing them personally. If you can find someone who is willing to let you kinda slowly wade in, it really is something you should try out. You have to be adept at using all of your resources, i.e. books and internet, and you should have a good grasp on basic anatomy. You really should have some sort of bonafide surgical word book at your fingertips as well. If you can give it a shot, I say go for it! It never hurts to learn something new 
He's about as cool as a blast furnace
You're kidding, right? This guy's an idiot.
Met at a beer blast in college -nm

Why don't you read the post before you blast it?
???
a dumb question (please don't blast me) ... sm
First, let me say that I too HATE our jobs being outsourced. Not only for the ill effects to US MTs, but especially the slave wages paid to Indian MTs to line the pockets of more greedy and overpaid CEOs. It is sickening.
My question, however, is what exactly is so bad about medical records being sent outside of the country? I just don't understand why everyone seems so adamant that this is an awful thing, mentioning homeland security, privacy issues, etc. Other than loss of our jobs as MTs, what is the danger and concern? Just curious.
Stupid is as stupid does, says Forrest...

In college in the room next to our, they would blast Grateful Dead music all day - sm
we retaliated by blasting AC/DC. They got the point and stopped blaring their music. I'd pound on the walls and ask her to keep it down because you are trying to work, might help, it she gets louder and more obnoxious I'd call the police, disturbing the peace and all. She won't appreciate it but it would sure make a point, and if she kept it up you just keep calling the police. Good luck.
Well of course we know that now. Back then we didn't because he didn't allow unfettered access.
c
right we children didn't tattle to the administrator did we. BTW, didn't you think we were &#
because some half-witted idiot said everyone was jealous because some other anonymous poster said they were going to be a doctor. Didn't they call it doctor envy. Oh yeah, that was all about you wasn't it busy-body MT. You with your degree and premed but yet you still post here and acuse others of jealously. I dunno but you and dano seem so close, I can't put my finger on it but I would say you could be computer clones. Jealous indeed. Children indeed. I think you are blowing your covers) dano and busy body MT. This whole "jealously" thing makes me think that you may be one and the same poster.
I didn't go into labor until 2.5 weeks later, so it didn't work. Sorry!...nm

STUPID,STUPID
G*D is this the pits or what? Sure I got in...finally, but like others, I can't set up files for my various accounts, it's a stupid decision and HEY,if they did it to prevent junk mail..guess what Frank...didn't work, got 5 junk mails already today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
stupid
maybe if we didn't have to spend so much time and money in other countries fighting their causes, we could spend our time and money on global warming issues.
You really are stupid.
You think that you all have the same opinion of Medquist and no one could possibly like them. How insane is this? Who is agreeing with themself? Obviously, there is someone else here who agrees with me and isn't afraid to say so. What I have to say is the only loser here is you, so lose about 50 pounds and come back later.
Now that IS stupid. :D nm

stupid
Oh really? Stop being so politically correct and tripping over yourself with apologies when you are speaking to or addressing the subject of someone that isn't like you. Always with the apologies, always with the fretting of not to hurt their precious feelings! THAT'S your problem, right there. Stupid is as stupid does, Becky. (Could Samtel tell me who that quote was from? hmmmm?) Don't be so quick to jump to the "defense" of someone encroaching on OUR jobs, who by the way is also someone who probably does not want or need your defense, and is doing quite a nice job of showing his STUPIDITY by his postings on this board anyway. It's like nails on a chalkboard tho when I see comments like yours rising to defent these jerks just for the sake of POLITICAL CORRECTNESS. Enough!
stupid
man, lady, you got major anger issues! i'm going with "anon" because i don't want you coming to my house with a shotgun or somethin!
stupid is as stupid does
  His meatloaf ain't quite cooked.
Some of us cannot believe just how stupid.....sm
these people are that Mr. Leno interviews....COLLEGE kids no less....they know so little, it's incredible.......they tell you the name of their schools and then they answer any of his questions incorrectly...and some of them are the simplest of questions.....
I may be stupid...
but what ARE you talking about??? How exactly DOES he say thank you in a thread that is so irksome to you?? Chosen few?? I would really like you to enlighten all of us dummies who have no earthly idea what the heck you are talking about! 
Sorry for the stupid
question, but what is EMR?
Just how stupid do they think I am. I just
got an E-mail from Chase - the credit card company. I do have a credit card with them that is paid in full and I'm fixing to cancel. Anyway the e-mail was addressed to valued customer, which should have been the first clue. It was offering to credit my account $20.00 for answering 6 questions about their supposed new and improved website. At the end of the questions they wanted my ID, password, account #, etc. Now you'd think they know this information if I had an account with them - LOL. Of course I didn't fall for it, though I'm sure there will be many who will.
They think we are stupid
In biz anything that is paid is cost LOL what about the billing cycle revenue and legal protection transcriptionists provide. They fail to mention that everything is cost from the nursing salaries to the paper cups in the cafeteria.
What a joke and sad attempt to put the blame for their creepy ways on the big bad administrators and insurance companies.
Yeah lets support them so they can reduce wages even more with the black character line bs.
If they were devoted to MTs, apart from patient care & safety they would be advocating for us by emphasizing to hosptials admins and risk management and insurance companies about the legal protection that error free accurate reports provide. They would be emphasizing the value of what we are offer/our product instead of working against us.
I am stupid, but
I am not sure what you mean, can you "draw me a picture"?
I don't know, but that is stupid! sm
She needs to get a life!
I was stupid enough to take a job QA job...
making 3 cents per line. I thought it would be just filling in blanks so it would be okay and I was tired of typing. Well they wanted me to do 100% QA for 3 cpl! The MT's work that I was QAing were making 3cpl for VR editing. So basically, I'm making the same thing as them, expect I'm having to correct their work, provide them feedback, field emails from the MT's all day answering questions from the feedback that I gave and all for 3cpl. So basically, I was making less than the the MT's. I told my boss I needed a raise or I would just go back to being an MT b/c I could make more money doing that. She wouldn't give me one. Even after I told her that it took me 6 hours to get to 1000 lines in QA one day b/c of all the terrible MT's she hired and bad reports I was correcting. So what's that $30? I made way less than minimum wage! She didn't even respond to me.
I see job ad's here ALL the time from TTD saying they are paying 3cpl for QA. I emailed them to see if it was 100% QA and she said yes. Unbelievable.
It really makes me sick how MT's are so taken advantage of and so underpaid.
I would say on average, an MT would edit 300 lines an hour. That's decent. I would be offended if someone offered me 1 or 2 cpl for VR. Do the math. 3 cpl is too low IMO.
No stupid questions
There are never any stupid or embarrassing questions around here. I've found people are very willing to help. That's why I love this board.
stupid statement
That's a very stupid statement. You evidently don't work on the kinds of accounts I do. I send blanks that QA can't get, either. There are various things that affect a report and require blanks besides a dictator's accent.
But maybe she does not like watching MTs look stupid
ranting about something that isn't even true? I know I don't.
I know, it's a stupid idea, but...sm
Why can't the cruise ships come in and get these people? I know there was a port in the area, so the cruise ships have got to be somewhere nearby. They could let everyone use the facilities, rest, relax.
I know, it's probably about the expense and loss of income to the cruiselines, but why not? These people are going through so much.
I know other ships are coming, but maybe the cruiselines could send their ships just until the other ships come.
Did u get the stupid ph call
And you ask, what is it about?
I don't know.
And you ask, why don't you know?
I don't know.
And you say well it probably doesn't apply to me, right?
I don't know.
And you say "I threw away the letter because I'm SE and the letter didn't mention SE. So why am I getting a package? "
I don't know.
And finally you say, well is it specifically to me?
yes.
Then you wonder, if I'm a SE, why are they sending me SPECIFICALLY anything AT ALL?
Who are you calling stupid?
Well, if they are soooo stupid, explain how they are the largest transcription company in the US?
Perhaps you know something about the packet that we don't, because in case you didn't know this - NO ONE GOT THEIR PACKET YET! DUH - Talk about stupid - look in the mirror.
How do YOU know so much, huh?
PS - While looking in the mirror, go brush those yellow-stained teeth, comb that nasty wirey, brillo-pad hair, squeeze some of this nasty whiteheads, and get a face lift - because ain't no one want someone like you working for them!
Just S.O.S. (Stuck on Stupid!)

...and besides, who needs their stupid credentials?
All I did was line AAMT's coffers. I no longer belong to AAMT nor do I keep up my CMT credential. Has not hurt one bit professionally. Please point out something positive that AAMT has accomplished for our profession. All CMT does is provide AAMT with more money for their dog and pony show. AAMT? No thanks! We need someone who REALLY represents the day-to-day MT, not a select few.
oh what a stupid thing to say ...
that this person works from home for that reason !! It is management's fault that boundaries are not set. But know what I think? Management doesn't give a HOOT about the IC or the employee - as long as the work is getting done. If the choice was angry typists vs an angry account - guess who loses. WE DO.
Not everybody is so mindlessly stupid that they have to
act out the things they see and hear. I listened to all sorts of music growing up, but I've never been a drunk, promiscuous or druggie. My parents gave me credit that I brains enough to make the right choices, and I proved to them that I did. My kids all have good heads on their shoulders, too. You can't lock them in a windowless cage to shield them from the world. Actually, that is considered child abuse and irresponsible parenting.
What a stupid question.
What do you think she's going to do? Sit back and let a bunch of MT's who could give a flip about the quality of their work let an account who pays thousands and thousands of dollars per year go bye-bye out the window?
Personally, I hope she lowers the boom because any MT who doesn't have a spell checker shouldn't be working and never should have been hired, and any MT who refuses to use a spell checker should be canned immediately, if not sooner, on the spot.
I'd like to see you bust your butt to do all the things involved to secure a good account and then see how YOU react when some/a bunch of airheads do lousy work, with the end result being all your hard work, expense, and time away from your family that you put into securing that account fly right out the window. You'd be L*I*V*I*D!
stupid emails!
Does anybody know how to keep these ridiculous emails from coming? It seems like every day I'm getting more and more of them, you know, the ones that have absolute nonsense in the subject line? I don't read them, just delete them, but I must get 15 or 20 a day and I'm sick and tired of it. I feel like my privacy is being invaded, and it is just junk filling up my mailbox.
stupid email
That sounds great. But does SpamBayes filter any email that you DO want to receive? Thanks.
stupid emails
Okay then, again, thanks very much for your help. I am going to check this out because at this point I'll try anything to stop the insanity! It's just crazy the stupid, stupid stuff people send via email to clog up the mailboxes. I wonder, does anybody even READ this junk? And better yet, does anybody ever BUY stuff from this spam email? Sorry, I just get carried away with this subject; it's a true thorn in my side. Again, I thank you.
Absolutely, not stupid at all. nm

Stupid question
Ok, so I know this may sound like a completely dumb question. What does the SO stand for? Sorry.
RE: Stupid question
Service Owner or Service Organization
This may be a stupid question but....
what is a troll? I keep hearing things about troll alerts and hoping someone isn't a troll and the only troll that I know of...I used to collect when I was in junior high with the different outfits and the different colored hair that stood up. LOL.
Sorry, but that was just stupid, looool
this may be a stupid question but...
are you making sure the file is even in the express scribe? It is hard to explain in writing, but are you dragging and dropping the files into the player? That is how I did it when I used Express Scribe...
