I think I'd just give her back the 3 cans of cat food ... lol nm

I can't give my lettuce away fast enough.
DH and I have been picking and washing at least a dozen jam-packed gallon bags of lettuce each week for the past month. Spinach, red sails, butterhead, spicy mix, green leaf, chard, and leaf mix. Never again! LOL I also somehow wound up with 20 tomato plants this year. Oh, well. At least those can be frozen or canned. Next, I'll be giving away peas and zucchini. Around here, we do the drop and dash. Find an unlocked car, put some zucchini in the front seat, and RUN! Just kidding. I shred and freeze it for bread all year.
Word Expander for Vista - Fast Fox? Anyone?
Any opinions on Fast Fox for Vista? Noticed it is on sale for $19 for the month of March. Anyone use it? For XP I have been using ShortHand but just can't afford it right now.
Prob is then you may get all fast fast fast talkers...not a fair way nm

Wash it, up in the crockpot with 2 cans of
cream of mushroom soup, one soup can of water and 1 package of onion soup mix. Make some rice when you are ready to eat. YUM. If you don't have those incredients, you can use potatoes, onions, celery, and carrots, but put a couple of tablespoons of flour in the crockpot before you put the roast in and then add some wine or some other kind of liquid to give you a gravy. I like my roast to fall apart when I try to put it out of the crockpot.
3 cans of Little Friskies cat food...
and I didn't have a cat! 
Do you have any cans of chicken broth or
Just thinking you could cut his broth in your portion with one of these . . . maybe cook some rice and then add it in . . . the potatoes also may help some (love potatoes in anything, but thought they may already be in there).
What do you do when you accept a job or give someone your word,
and then your circumstances change overnight? I don't want to bail on anyone, but I don't feel any loyalty at all to people who haven't been completely honest with me. I need to take care of myself and my kids, especially with the cost of everything skyrocketing. I feel so used and taken advantage of. Everyone says not to burn bridges, though. I just can't do it any more. I need some "give" here instead of "take, take, take". An opportunity has come up that I would be stupid to turn down, but I feel guilty dumping people who "need" me.
If I ever had to give up doing word-research online,
That's how much going back to books-only word research would slow me down. I have a huge, up-to-date library of Stedman's books here, and I pick one of them up maybe once a week, often less. Using a search engine like Google as sort of a "Soundex" to find words that are too garbled to know where to look them up in a book, saves me time, and saves me from having to leave a blank that'd I'd otherwise have to leave if I couldn't look for it online. The drug indexes are better, too. And I don't even know where I put my Dorland's Medical dictionary. Haven't seen it since the middle of winter. I think if the company is going to require the PC that's connected to their transcription platform to be internet-disabled, then they should supply their own computer free of charge, and should pay the extra electricity it would take to run both simultaneously all day long.
Hmmm - a can of Wasabi peas. :) nm

Chicken pastry, garden peas, cornbread
depends how fast the MT is......No one would want to pay me by the hour because I'm fast.

how fast you can type, has little to do with how fast you can transcribe
Let's face it, we can only type as fast as the doctors dictate... worse, we can only type as fast as we can *understand* the doctors. Given someone who slurs or has a heavy accent, someone who clears his throat constantly or shuffles through the paper, given an unfamiliar account or work type, or an area we don't have much experience in and have to look up words, etc., any and all of these things combine to make typing speed not really relative at all. I personally type 110, but not when I'm transcribing. I tell most folks who ask, if you type 65-75 wpm, you're solidly in the ballpark for doing medical transcription.
Baked chicken, rice & peas. Finally cooled off!

Bag of frozen peas for a cold pack and heat up dry rice in a sock for a hot one. Ah...nm

Just got back from buying the dried peas - if it's cold tomorrow, pea soup for us
I love pea soup.

EXText Word Client - blank screen everytime I give "ok" in the DIS screen
I am using EXText Word Client software with Transnet. I am getting a blank screen everytime I give "ok" in the DIS screen (patient details info screen). I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software an upgraded but still errors out the same way. Are there any EXtexters who could help?

EXText word client blank screen everytime I give ok in DIS screen
Thanks your suggestion was very valuable. At a specified time (which the technical side say, when the net speed is very good), it is working without a problem at all (whereas this was half working and half not working before even at this time), but other times, still the same problem exists.
Actually the blank screen comes every time I give "ok" in the DIS screen (patient details info screen).

you don't put your family at risk by taking in strangers. That's just plain foolish. There were over 3300 registered sex offenders in NO. Where are they now. In your community? Perhaps in your house? Good luck.
oh our lovely government does give illegals medicaid, foodstamps, and housing so in term we give tha
i have been through some rough times lately and had to apply for some help. there are signs, big signs, all over our offices saying "YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE LEGAL TO GET HELP". so we and our government do give them our benefits whether they are legal here or not. now that is messed up. i am helping to support them so they can take away my jobs and i can't even support my kids and yes i get benefits, wow $75 a month in food stamps which lasts not even a week in a household of 6. don't get me wrong, i am thankful for any help at the moment, but i get penalized for trying to work my tail off and still can't survive.
there was recently an article in our local newspaper where one of our local school districts tried to charge $1000 a year for each illegal student enrolled. it was bulked and the illegals got a lawyer to sue for discrimination. the school district merely stated that they had to HIRE extra teachers that could speak the foreign language just to teach these children and were trying to offset some of the expenses. ridicilous!! so again our taxpayers money is paying to educate illegals as well.
Aw come one give her a break. She said she was sorry and is willing to refund. Give her a chance to
do what is right. If she fails to do what is right, then go about this in an adult way and not act like such a child. "you suck" That is so immature.
She is responding to you and you are eating her alive. Why would she put herself out there to be treated like this if she didnt mean it.
I am really astonished at how people can act on here. Would you treat people like this in person? If you do, I cant imagine you having very many friends.

RUN, RUN, RUN, as fast
You do not want to work for SS. They lie, steal lines, and will work you 7 days a week for as many hours as you are willing and you won't get paid accurately. Their line counter is always "down" and you can't track lines accurately.
run very fast
I too am an ex-IC for eTranz and this company is not professional at all. I consistently received paychecks 2 weeks late. Deb Garrison, the owner, if very unprofessional, hollering on the phone, hanging up on you. There is no communication in this company whatsoever. There are some very good companies out there. Please do not work for this company.
Get out fast!!
Well you definitely need to get out fast. Easier said than done I know I lived it. He sounds like my exhusband except throw in some cheating as well. He called me every name in the book and never wanted to do anything around the house but griped about it constantly. He stayed out and drank and everything else under the sun. He was also violent and would throw things and hit things. I feel your pain. It took me one night just finally getting my fill. No crying occurred like before. No yelling. Just me calming saying that was it I would be leaving and wanted a divorce and by two weeks I was gone along with our son, not quite 3 at the time. It is hard to leave financially and emotionally but sometimes you reach that point. Get out as best you can if you can!
Run as fast as you can
from AIM platform. It is more like typing in fields such as data entry.
I need help, fast!
I'm losing my job at the hospital in two weeks due to outsourcing and have decided to go it on my own. I have $800.00 in my budget to spend on a digital dictation system. Do you suggest I buy a phone-in system or an Internet software system and what brand names of each/or do you recommend? How much does the average one cost?
Thanks very much for your help. I have to move fast because my money is fast dwindling down and I want to make sure I make a wise and good investment so I can get moving in trying to find clinic accounts.

Need help fast
Before you jump into unchartered waters, I suggest that you start as an IC with a small national. You said you are a newbie. You still have much to learn. It takes a few years to hone your craft and be able to work independently without assistance. I would be afraid you would be biting off a little more than you can chew right now. Not trying to insult you. I have been around for a long time and would hate to see you make an investment like that and have to struggle. Find a position with a small national doing multispecialties for a couple to three years.
I'd go for a min. of $18 - now the fast MTs - sm
and the production guru's won't like this as I am sure they make more than that. But I only make $13-$15 now on production; some days down to $9/hour, depends on the dictator. But I think $18 is a fair wage, though I am sure many would disagree.
How fast can you run?
I would definitely not go that route. It would not be my choice of transcription platform!
They want to seem as fast as possible?
Maybe because the more lines their editors do, the more they (the company) get paid by the hospitals? I dunno ...
fast fox
Fast Fox by NCH, the Expander by the people that gave you Express Scribe. It has been good for me, it is easy and CHEAP. Go to NCH.com to download a free trial.
No I don't work for NCH but I tried it because I always like express scribe.
Fast dictators
When are these ******** doctors going to figure out that by dictating 100 miles per hour they are NOT going to get an accurate accounting of their patient encounter???? I feel like I'm being set up to fail. I don't care how much experience we transcriptionists have, if you're going to dictate a three page report if 1.5 minutes, SOMETHING is going to get missed or screwed up. I hope that extra three minutes they saved themselves throughout their busy day is worth it when the patient's chart gets the wrong data and somewhere down the line a big mistake is made. I've had a terrible morning, struggling with Mr. All-Important who dictates vital signs as one long rambling of numbers, never in the same order (one time it will be weight first, then pulse, blood pressure, respirations and the next time it will be blood pressure first, then weight, then respirations, then pulse) -- I've had it!!!!! I've got so many blanks in this batch of reports that I'm embarrased to turn them in.
Thanks for letting me vent. I'm not a bad transcriptionist.
Speaking too fast
Wake up call -- they speak too fast so they can blame you for any mistakes. The same with those who write poorly - "That's not what I said." Another reason is they are too cheap to take the time to speak slowly, have to keep making those $$$. It's all about the money - not the patient. It also gives them a sense of "power" over you. You'll catch on. 
Well it's pretty fast. SM
Brown your hamburger and maybe drain it if you don't buy extra lean. Add chopped onion and 2 cloves garlic, stir it all up till the onion is clear. Add salt, a smidge of sugar, just a little. Chopped bell pepper if you like that. Then add chili powder till it looks right, add canned tomatoes, tomato sauce (I don't like paste, but if you do, I guess you could use that). Ground cumin.
I'm no Texan, so I like beans in my chili. Pork & beans used to be $.22 per can so we got a taste for those in our chili, LOL. That's what I use.
Did I forget anything? Oh, if it looks too clear and orange, you can make a paste out of a tiny bit of flour and water and thicken it with that. Simmer. Serve.
Any chili cooks out there? Did I forget anything? I just make it without thinking!
You can also use chili seasoning in a packet but I don't like that as well, personally.
Not so fast sunnyMT (sm)
EMTEE's duh was not directed to you, it was to the subject they typed in their response (digital records instead of digital recorders)
Philips makes digital recorders that do not require a docking station. The DPM-9360 is one of the cheaper ones. It can use either a USB cable or memory card for transferring files.
Try looking at WinZip for securing the files. Email is not a secure method of tranfer and if the files were intercepted, it would be a HIPAA violation. Using a password to zip the files with WinZip will make them secure for transfer and zipping will make the files smaller allowing you to download them quicker.
Fast Chart
Any info about Fast Chart?
Geewhiz, that's fast. Don't know how you do it!!
I bow before thee. Hahaha
That was fast for you Jodi!
My ex kept playing games,scheduled the pick-up over 11 times, each time the police had to be here and set up in advance, so they were not happy at all. Realtor called the judge because the house showing did not do well with a 2 car garage packed with all his junk.
Judge finally "ordered" him to show up on a date SHE chose and if he did not, then his stuff (including his furniture) would be picked up by a local battered womens shelter and the Salvation Army!
7 months post exist he showed up with some help but the cops who had previously sat around waiting for him also showed up off an on (besides the 2 there to protect me) and did some subtle irritating
Keep reaching for that star Jodi, it will all work out for you. You've taken the most important step in gaining control of YOUR life again and freedom with security is sweet!
you are right! I read too fast!

RUN AWAY FAST FROM THAT OFFER!
I had to purchase the StartStop foot pedal for $200. The first day was a nightmare. The second day was worse. The third day was just pathetic, but the fourth day was okay after I sent them a nasty email. I had to explain to them, I was a Transcriptionist and not a translator. They put me on another account with doctors speaking English and as soon as I got my line count decent, they put me back on the ESLs. Their accounts are 99% ESLs. When I say ESL, I mean they do not speak any English whatsoever, i.e. "thrappy" is therapy and "palowang" is electrogram <---- I am still trying to figure that 1 out. Their QA/editor must be an online transcription course poster and have no experience in grading a transcriptionist's work. They constantly change your report, spell it wrong, and then turn it in to the client with words misspelled under your name. Then to top it off, they send you nasty emails stating your accuracy rating is low due to mistakes. When you go view the corrected report, your report was actually right and they were the one who changed it for no reason because they do not have grammar, medical terminology, etc. So I would not take any offer with them. They are more of a learning transcription company who have not mastered transcription itself. Therefore, they are not capable of grading an experienced transcriptionist's work because they are still learning.
Running away fast...
Thank you as well NM, I will certainly take your advice!!!
Cheers!!!
fast docs
Why don't you get with the office manager and get copies of their standards and then all they have to do is say "use my usual or make changes". Mine were too happy to do this because they HATE dictating as much as we hate hearing them like that. And, I still got my line pain in spite of using normals.
depends on how fast you are as an MT
its difficult to get any sort of speed i.e. production, as an Editor whereas as an MT, if paid by the line, the faster you are, the more money you make. The people who make more money as editors are generally slower typists or else people who really have heard and done it all.
oops...too fast! There should be
an employment area on the site to let you know if they are hiring in all departments. At least, this is what I have found when I googled our area hospitals. Hope this helps.
