it's not my fault, the darn quote mark just doesn't post for some reason.

Okay, for some reason, the first quote at the front of qldc does not show up, but in the line autocorrect.entries.add name:=qldc" there needs to be a quote mark around each side of "qldc", not just at the end.
If you want to use this macro -- and find it won't work and are confused my instructions, please write me and I will e-mail the macro to you.
I really don't like the idea of people having to spend their meager pittance of a salary on expensive software to do such a simple thing.

Again, quote mark problem in macro
Same problem as before with a macro that I posted, only one quote mark where there should be two:
In the macro where you see: cset:=("=)
there needs to be a quote mark on the other side of the equal sign: =
Selection.MoveEndUntil(cset:=("=), Count:=wdForward) should be: (substitute the quotemark for the word quotemark)
Selection.MoveEndUntil(cset:=(quotemark=quotemark), Count:=wdForward)
This quote mark needs to be inserted on both sides of the cset=("=) which is in the code twice. If this instruction doesn't make sense to you, please e-mail me and I will send you the macro.
Hope this helps.
Darn! Darn! Darn! Just think if it paid to post...
some, ah hem, long-winded people would never have to work anywhere else! 
the reason? *no common sense* quote...nm

Their fault, not the post office, sending

Coffee just always smells so darn good, doesn't it? I drink 3 cups of coffee... sm
in the morning (used to be 4) w/Nutrasweet, a little regular powdered creamer and a little liquid French Vanilla creamer (yes, I do like it sweet!) If I'm really sleepy and need the boost, I'll have another cup or two.
Then I immediately start drinking diet Dr. Pepper, and not the caffeine-free kind. Love it. I drink diet Dr. Pepper throughout the day and night, about 6 cans a day (it used to be diet Coke). I've joked with my friends and family that it might be time for them to hold an intervention for me with the Dr. P.
I do sometimes worry about the mass quantity of Nutrasweet I consume each day. Anybody else?
Its not the animal lovers fault about abortion and abuse of innocent children, it's the fault...
of our government to allow such a law. The innocent dogs being killed over the so-called rabies roundup vs. shortage of "beef" have no government to help protect their rights to live so the humans have to step in and protect their rights and the humans should protect the human's rights as well to live, but when a government passes laws, etc., you can only fault the government; afterall, they have the final decision.
it IS the mayor's fault and it IS Kathleen Blanco's fault
to assess the potential damage and what help they have immediately available in their area. They are then responsible for contacting the feds for more aid BEFORE the fact if they truly know their geography, economics, and have a weather advisory board on hand for such purposes, which they DO.
The mayor and the governor did not do any of this and now as the general consensus of the liberal loonies always turns, if you drop the ball and don't take responsibility for what you're expected to know how to do in your elected office, BLAME BUSH.
Stupid is as stupid does.
The same reason they post
what they had for dinner, what kind of pets they have, etc.
The reason for this post is what?
If you are no longer an MT, there's no reason to come here and be mean. Some of us are very happy being an MT. Some of us are making $50,000 (or making whatever our goal may be). Just because you couldn't make it doesn't mean others can't.
Glad you're gone. It leaves more work for me!!
To the service who posted a job ad on the Main board, the reason your post
was removed is because all job ads are to be posted on the Job Seeker's board. Any "well-deserving MT" knows to look at that forum for that "chance to work for an excellent company and make an excellent line rate". Feel free to post your ad there.
Thank you.
I didn't know I need to post EVERY reason I got into MT...Good God! **rolling eyes***
I stand by my posts as well. YES I did say my children, but pardon me for not listing EVERY SINGLE REASON I got into MT. My children are always number one at the top of my priority list as they should be and that's why I mentioned them. And no, I'm having a good day, but I am astounded with the nastiness on these boards. I've never seen such unahppy people. Is this was MT does to a person?
Doesn't it say to find the secret post?
I just skimmed it, but I think it says to find the secret post and send an email from that post to enter.
Please post the link again; it doesn't seem to work for me. Thanks. n/m

Doesn't apply. According to original post, there was no dictation involved. NM

Don't quote me but I think it just may be
a couple of dollars cheaper but AAMT members I think get a discount, but again don't quote me. It runs around $300 approximately. The test is given in one sitting but does have two parts. It is given at a testing center. Go over to aamt.org and they have instructions on what is necessary to register and take the test.
Good luck.
quote
I work in a urgent psychiatric center and the reports have quite a bit of quotes. If the doctor states "quote," I will put word for word what he said. You cannot change the wording to make it more appropriate. This includes grammer, i.e. I've, I'm and gonna.
I think it's more than $500, but don't quote me
Also, hopefully they're a decent company. I worked as an IC for a company for three years. Twice I didn't get my 1099 until two days before taxes were due in April after calling and emailing over and over again. And last year, after I quit, I never received it at all.
You said, I quote:
'You really dont type any lines (already typed for you) so why get paid by the line?'
How else do you want to get paid doing VR? Only for every mistake corrected?
LOL ! Where is the logic?
We are also paid for the reading of the lines, this is work too, not only the typing!
This is a big question mark for me also.
I have SBC Unlimited currently & know they have been notorious for dumping their unlimited plans. There again, some of the girls on the boards have been, others haven't been. I'm afraid to risk it at this point. I'm getting ready to try Vonage VOIP - Small Business Unlimited Plan & can only hope it works out. It's going to cost me more, but I'm hoping that the increase in cost will offset my fear of being dumped from their service, out of work & with an astronical phone bill for the minutes over what was allowed. I'm petrified at this point. I haven't found anything that says it limits your usage to 5,000, but who knows what is in the fine print that I'm missing somewhere! I'm still digging & think I may try to call them. I also read in all my insundry print-outs, that some DSL carriers will block the ports needed for VOIP. Guess who my DSL carrier is - SBC !! I have no idea what is going to happen. I may end up retiring & end up going on welfare! If I find out anything further, I'll let you know.

Bad Mark Forstein
Mark Forstein seems like a very nice guy, but don't expect him to do anything on paper. He likes working on hand shakes so he can switch the deal on you later. He lives in Fort Lauderdale,FL now, and after retiring from Medquist, he tried investing in a Medical Billing Company called R-Solutions, but later took it over after the "brains" revealed that he didn't have the money he made Mark believe he had. After Mark took it over, he basically ran it to the ground. When he took over, it started a slow decline, then his wife took over, at it went out of business within 3 months. Meanwhile, he tried ripping people in debt off by starting a company called Nationwide Consumer Credit. This very shady non-profit business promised to help people out of debt, but the only thing they cared about was taking thier deposit. Rest assured they weren't trying to help people in debt. He set up a parent company called Landmark Credit Services to take the profit. BAD MARK FORSTEIN!!
I'm not sure who Mark Valenti is...
and why I would trust what he is putting on his website. It seems like capitalist propaganda to me.
Thanks for the link, but I think I will rely on my own research tools :o)
here is another brief quote from a website
"For example, says Suresh Menon of HealthScribe, one of the largest medical transcription companies"
Healthscribe was based in Sterling, Virginia. They joined up with Spheris. They will tell anyone that asks them, yes, we outsource to India.
Oh, I just love this quote --
"which requires extensive training and time to become proficient," Sims said.
Oh, and for all that extensive training, not to mention medical/pharmaceutical knowledge and proficiency with spelling and grammar, companies expect MTs to jump at an offer of 6 and 7 cpl??? Yeah, I'd chose this career path if I were a young person..Baaah

"I wouldn't count on it!!!". You don't know jack sheit.
I live in a huge metropolis with many many large university-based teaching hospitals where MTs are in greet need, and since I've been there over 20+, I'm top dog. So don't be questioning me, or discounting what I am saying. I think you wish you were in my position. Just another case of jealousy rearing its ugly head. If you live in the boondocks and make crap money, then move to a large city where you call roll in the dough working this profession.
half year mark
My small MTSO is at 22,500 and my part-time job in a clinic is $6200. So should do well this year.
ER died with Mark Green - Not the
him, Carol and Doug. One thing that got to me though, why didn't Carol and Doug show up for his funeral????  The newer episodes just don't have the same uumph - I stick to the reruns on TNT.
that's deep. can i quote your brilliance?
so good with words. i bet you work for mq.
A famous quote comes to mind...
"Arguing with a fool is like arguing with a drunkard."
'Nuff said.
Don't base your quote on rates
Why are you a better deal than anyone else? It's not because of rate, it's because you care about your work and you're reliable -- what else?
ASK them what they've been paying -- they won't know because they probably won't understand their invoice. Ask them to send you a copy of the invoice. Reply to me privately if you need to, I'll help you figure it out.
But even if you get that, keep the focus of the discussion off price, keep it on your quality, your caring, your reliability, what you can offer them. Do you buy EVERYTHING based on price? If not, think about the things you buy based on quality and base your letter on that.
If your sole value is because you have the lowest price, you're fighting a losing battle.

"Duh" teacher quote of the week....sm
Last week a teacher wrote my sister that her daughter was easily distracted in the classroom. Well guess what? There are 32 kids in her class (above what the state requires but they have a teacher shortage) and my niece says the teacher lets the kids run wild. No duh - I'd have a hard time concentrating with 32 kids in the classroom as well if I had 32 other 5th graders in the room.
Maybe "disappointed" would be closer to the mark than "deeply saddened" over SM
something that is a nice gesture at Christmas. Why would you be "deeply saddened" over this?

Darn right he's still hot.

That's the one I was leaning towards . . . I was hoping to learn that it did not interfere with typing. While wearing the glove it is much easier to type on my AlphaGrip, but I am still not speedy enough to use it full-time. I'm getting there though.
I kick myself when I think how I caused my own hand/wrist/arm injury. Trying to resolve my back pain, I rushed into using my inherited recliner, where I had to "reach" to reach the keyboard . . . my arm will never be the same.
I am in the recliner again now  , but I'm spending a buttload of dough to make it happen. 
Darn! And I
hoped this might be the place for me. Don’t want to have anything to do with overseas. Thanks for the info.
darn it....here's something with a little more pep
yep you can be anyway you darn sm
well please and you have the right to say exactly what you like to say. you can scream, kick, pitch a fit, do what ever you darn well please. But your attitude stinks. I never said I loved the dialect or any of it, but it IS PART OF THE JOB that doesn't make me a candidate to go live in another country. I don't care how old you are or how young you are, you are the kind of person with the attitude that makes every other MT that you work with miserable. I have worked with the likes of your kind and its why I chose to work at home for 25 of my 30+ years in this business. The complaining, back-biting etc of people like you make life miserable for every other person around them.
I always kind of thought that if folks like you took the energy that you use being awful to other people and put it into your work, you would make a lot more money!
