You dare question the judgment of the almighty RN! How dare you!
Don't you know that RN's know everything and are the beginning and end all of all that's holy in the medical kingdom!?
But seriously, you have my sympathy, girl. Hang in there.
I do! I usually get mine at The Body Shop and Bath and Body Works. Thanks for posting that link. Do

It is her body, but now there is ANOTHER body inside of her. sm
Right now I counsel pregnant teens as I had 2 myself and regret that decision every single day of my life. I've learned over the years that God has forgiven me and that my 2 babies are waiting for me, but the guilt and shame that this decision ultimately brings isn't worth it. Besides, that baby sooo deserves a chance at life, love, and laughter. Don't you agree?
I agree with Ronald Reagan: I am Pro Choice - if the baby has a choice, then I am pro choice.
Dare
Okay, let me tell it like it is.....an MT who is near and dear to my heart works for SS. She will occasionally "blow off steam" to me about this or that. Because of the posts on here about SS, I called her recently to ask her if SS was really that bad and if so, would she like the number of the company where I work. She laughed. This is what she had to say, and it's pretty close to a direct quote:
No, I don't want to leave, for the most part I'm very happy. I work when I am suppose to work. I produce what I am suppose to produce and my QA score is high. I do the hard accounts no one else wants to do so I never run out of work and my pay is really good. (Still quoting) Some of these MTs have problems with ___ but she is NOT that bad if you just do what you're suppose to do when you're suppose to do it. One thing you can count on, she is always FAIR. Whether you like it or not, she is FAIR.
No, this is not my daughter MT that I mentioned previously. She works for Edix/Spheris and has for I guess about 10 years and you couldn't run her off with a stick. Still, she "blows off steam" to me occasionally. We all do that and that is our right but there is a point to just move on and let it go.
I've never taken dares but if I decided to make a move, I would go with SS I think. I pretty well would guess that I would have no problems with the supervisor, no problems with pay, no problems with tech support, etc. etc. If I found anything not to my liking, that I absolutely couldn't live with, then I would leave in a heart beat. Never have had a problem getting another job and doubt I would now. I've been doing this for roughly 40 years and only once had a problem with a supervisor and quit because of it. It really wasn't necessary for me to quit but the old supervisor I'd worked under for years, with NEVER an iota of a problem left and the new "whippersnapper" thought she was going to move mountains on day 1. I questioned her once and she told me, "IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT YOU CAN ALWAYS QUIT." So guess what I did? (I don't accept threats either). I did get a call from a higher up asking me to come back but once I've left, I've left. I never look back.
I'm not saying that your experience isn't true but then my experiences are true too. So you see, it wouldn't do me any good to accept your dare, it wouldn't prove a thing. Even if I found my experience was the same as your's, not everyone is going to have that experience.
I bet that if everyone posting negative about ANY company would sign their real name and the company came here to answer the complaints, they would have their side of the story too. I've always been of the opinion that there are really THREE sides to any story. Your side, my side and the truth (which usually is somewhere in the middle).
Oh, regarding tech support. Once when I worked for one of the big boys, the tech after trying several things to fix my problem, said in a rather grouchy tone, "I don't know what to tell you." Nevermind that made me furious!!! I mustered my sweetest voice and I said, "Oh, okay, would you tell ___ (supervisor) for me that I can't work because my computer is down? Thanks anyway for trying." HAHAHAHHAA I almost heard a gasp. He then said, well, we could try, this. Didn't work. He said, "I'll get a new computer out to you today and you'll have it tomorrow. I did and everything went on as per usual.
Oh, to dare to dream.......
Dare I ask. What exactly are chitlins? nm

and then I dare say, the management
would conveniently lower the pay to maybe 3/10 of a cent per line - lol. Can't allow those lowly MTs to make any money.
Why is it that management (no matter what company or situation) always decides what is possible and what is in the best interests of everyone, when the vast majority of them have no clue and have never performed the work? No wonder the economy has tanked.

They also never think to consult the person who actually performs the work and get some very valuable input. No wonder the economy has finally tanked.
No kids? So how do you dare even post here
when you have no idea how hard it is to be a mother? You can never imagine until you've been in our shoes. And I suppose you have a unique ability to spot a loser right away? Well you are unique then, because it happens over and over again that the men we fell in love with don't always stay the same. And it has nothing to do with being a loser. They don't have to be losers to not be able to make a relationship work. If you're sick of the single mother issue, then stay away from posts like this that will only upset your childless cold life.
I'm happy. I just don't dare post anything
Well there, I did it. I said I am happy to work for MQ.
Bring it on! 
How dare you make such a statement.
I beg your pardon..how dare you make such a generalization..How do you know what anyone elses work habits are? I have worked for MQ for nine years and it has been nothing but turmoil, different rules for each regional office, pay cuts, platform changes, new CEOs every few months, rumors about selling the company left and right. In July the SEs were told they were needed and the company was going to make the best job for SEs because they valued us..Now in January, there will be no more SEs and if you do not apply, just like a newbie, to be evaluated, just like a newbie, you will no longer have a job. Please, I am most certainly not lazy, I have worked two full time jobs since 1997. How dare you!
In this economy I would not dare - they may look elsewhere, be careful!

It wouldn't load with my Office. Somehow it wouldn't "read" my 2003 Basic, although sm
technical couldn't find anything wrong with my software. They really tried hard. I see so many people that like Escription, I'm sorry not to be able to use it. Hopefully I can get Office Pro on my next machine, and maybe use it then. I could upgrade, but I'm still not sure it would work.
How dare you? I used to live in a trailer and was not a skank
As an MTSO, I don't dare raise my rates because...sm
I've been actually outbid when I gave a price of 11 cents a line. The competitor was offering 24 TAT too. I don't dare raise rates on my accounts anymore. That would be slitting our throats. One of my IC's actually took a pay cut on another account. The physicians said if they didn't cut their rates they would find a transcription company in India. The MTSO decided to cut the rate and any IC who wanted to stay on would have to take a pay cut too. Hey if you can find the work at higher pay, take it, but...
How dare you speak to a colleague in this manner.
You are in the minority. I am telling you this - the only thing that constructive criticism does is cause lack of confidence and distraction which lasts for me up to an entire day. We make mistakes. Not gonna change. QA should be honored for catching the error and leave the MT out of it. There is no need to do anything more but fire her and in this field, the doctor has the last word and they still decide in the end - get that MT off my work and well, if that doesn't happy, that is a good sign. I have seen grown women brought to tears from the bullies in this field and it is about time it stopped, while that giant sucking sound caused by our jobs going to India gets louder and louder. Solutions include pods - teams of QA editor, proofer, data collector who WORK TOGETHER with mutual respective, sense of professionalism and hey, how about some humor and kindness? Is there some reason why some MTs think they are our sargeants? The only thing you bullies have on us is the ability to be rude.
Wouldn't that mean that you simply wouldn't have to print out everything?
You and me both. I want my old body

I don't know why any body would

Yep, it has been done, next state over, young girl named Carrie Culbertson, missing now for close to 6 yrs?

There are still body stresses.
Physically, the stresses are still the same, the sitting, and while you do not have all the heavy keyboarding, you still have neck, arm, leg swelling, back hurting, and all the little things that just go naturally with sitting at a computer all day. Your tendinitis should improve, however!
put nm (no message) in the body

all preached out already ms, busy body MT?
NOT!
executive body scan???
Could this be correct? Outcoming being discovery of gallstones.
Even the ones with the body for it should show a little modesty.

Stop and think MTBusy-body
A professional company, well organized, will have the specs on the accounts UP FRONT, on file, before you start the account. Did you not stop to think about that? If you are going to come down on the girl, come down on the company, where the problem begins. A well organized company has the specs on file, gives the preferences of the particular client and does not waste time sending preferences piecemeal. Geesh, did you not think of that?
start with the inside of your body
and drink a lot of water. The rule of thumb is 6 oz per pound of body weight.
Exactly- my brother is an ex body builder
and certainly very masculine, but he gets a pedicure every month - his wife is all for it (you know how those hooves can get, guys! LOL), whitens his teeth, highlights his hair, and shaves his entire body (left over behavior from body building days, no doubt).
Is anyone out there that is heavy truly comfortable with their body? sm
I have had a struggle with weight my entire life. As we speak now I am on Weight Watchers. I don't want to be model thin because I know that is never happening and some people aren't made to be that way. I am tall, an inch from being 6'. Before when I look at pictures I am thinking "Hey, I was not so bad. I DID carry my weight well." But during those times I thought I was horrible. Now, just topped the scale to 300 and I am scared to death! In the past year, since working from home and being depressed, I have put on an easily 50 lbs. I weigh more than I weighed with being 9 months pregnant with my son.
Anyway, I know for my health I need to get my weight down. But the question is - if you are heavy, how do you feel good about yourself and your body, enough to let that stress go so you can focus on other things in life? This consumes my every thought. Sometimes I think I need to see a psychiatrist to get this matter resolved.
I pray daily and ask God to help. I feel if I can learn to have a better self image of myself that I CAN conquer this goal and lose the weight.
Tips please....I don't look at other heavy women as ugly and fat. A lot of people I couldn't imagine being thin, yet they look great! I just wish I could picture myself that way.
BTW - in the almost 6 years my husband and I have been married, he has NEVER seen my naked, even when I wasn't so heavy. It is always "give me the covers, turn out the lights" and never intimate without clothes on. I want real intimacy. I want to feel good about myself. How do I achieve this while in the process of losing weight?
Selling body parts in the US sm
There was a brief mention of a recent arrest (I believe it was in New York) of a phony business set-up involving funeral homes, etc., selling bone grafts, etc. from dead bodies (one was supposedly Allistair Cook's body of the PBS fame) and replacing these parts with PVC piping in some cases. These people made "millions" and the patients/families had to be notified. One man was practically crying because he had been told he has to be tested every 6 mos. for HIV, hepatitis, etc., since he had a recent surgery on his neck. They said it may not present itself for years in some cases. They showed some gentlemen being led away in handcuffs but the story was cut short. Anyone else know about this travesty and why so little else has been said about it or is there any web site, etc., that explains it in more detail? Would like to know morel I am very concerned for the recipients as well as the unbeknownst-to-them "donor" families.
Couldnt they just run a magnet up his body

No busy-body MT, just somebody who has your and dano's number.
And kill one of your screen names. You have been outed.
Don't be so quick to judge others by yourself busy-body MT!
No joke.
PS: Where do you get the TIME IN your busy schedule to prepare essays and lectures to MTs what with your "busy" MTing and getting degrees etc? How's dano? She seemed to back you up with essays also. Same hahaha. Worn out?
jokes on you busy-body MT. hahaha.
really can we get someone to look into busy MT's background before she receives one more report to transcribe regarding her unfortunate habit of psychopathic lying and associated protesting too much on MT boards? Who knows what lurks IN this deviant mind?
I also love to get nice body lotion
or bubble bath or great smelling candles are always good.

I takes at least 1 week for the anesthesia to get out of your body. sm
It will take another 3-4 weeks to get your energy back and at least a full 6 months to 1 year to feel back to normal, whatever normal means?.
I has been 11 months for me now, and I am still tired more often than not.
I was up and moving around and taking long walks after the 2 week though. Back to work in 2-3 weeks. I had abdominal hysterectomy, so it may depend on whether you had abdominal or laparoscopic.
They say, lap-hys is better on the body and you are back to normal faster.
Hope this helps.
Head tired, body anxious
Anybody else have symptoms where your head is tired, but your body is anxious? At night it is the opposite, my head keeps running, but my body is tired. I find it hard to focus on work, but if I take anything to help me concentrate, i.e., Adderrall, then I feel all my muscles tense up and my heart beat faster. Its driving me nuts. Anybody else have this problem and have a remedy? Thanks!
Any body know of a family practice hiring PT..
I am currently working full time doing hospital work but things are slow all around for everybody. I was hoping to find a small acct to supplement on a perm. basis. Any help would be appreciated. I am new to this board so I hope it was okay to ask here.
Every person's body is different and heals at a different rate.
You could be back in 5 days or 30 days. It depends on how your body handles it.
I was back in 4 days after my first C-Section - I was out of bed the same night of surgery, walking around the halls, and home in 2 days. The woman next to me was in bed for 2 days moaning and complaining the whole time.
So, as you can see, everyone is different. Good luck to you.
It is her body...however, the life insider her does not belong to her!
God blessed her with this child and now she needs to find out why. If she is not ready for this then thats her decision but there are other options out there. Abortion is unexceptable birth control. Maybe by taking your niece to an alternative to abortion pregnancy center (family.org has an abundance of info) they can give her all the information she needs to make the best decision not a blind decision. I will pray for your situation. Please keep us posted!
It is because the body burns fat instead of glycogen for energy. sm
Without carbs, there is no insulin spike to store fat as fat in the body, so it goes through it or is burned as energy. The body preferentially burns fat stores since there is no glycogen to burn because there is no consumption of carbs.
