10.5 with major national, 65 chars with spaces,
nm
Probably means chars. AND spaces, but possibly not extra spcs
s
This was discussed recently. Would be chars. + spaces, but no indents, bold, italics, etc. nm

Elimiate white flour and white sugar from your diet.
I agree. And what about "black letters"
Not sure why only the "black letters" count. If you type what is in the header, should you not get paid for what is in the header?????? (I don't care if the letters in the header are red, black, blue or green......)
Who had fun shopping on "Black Friday"? - I did - sm
but I go without a "toy" agenda (did my toy shopping Monday and Tuesday so I had everything I wanted already), just go to get my kids and husband clothes mainly at great prices and to have fun with the kids--continuing the "tradition" that I had with my mom. Got myself a 1 GB Verbatin "Store 'n Go" since my zip disks are dying, $40 (reg. price $90), another great deal! I bought my DH 4 good dress shirts normally $136, for $62, can't beat that. Kohl's was packed so unfortunately did not get anything there like I would have liked to, the line was halfway to the back of the store but Sears and Penney's were fine, stood in line for 10 minutes tops, can live with that. Well off to do some work now......luckily not too tired to bang out 40 minutes or so. Have a good weekend!   
You are kidding about "black" keys, right??

8243 chars is how many lines?
 confused!!! lol
My line including spaces is 65 characters. I've heard that not counting spaces
takes away over 35% of your line count. I believe it too because you have at least 15 or so spaces on each line that you type. Use your first sentence up top as an example; you had 77 char and 21 spaces - in that line that would be a little less than 30% of your characters that you didn't get paid for. I don't think it's worth it and wouldn't want to work without getting credit for my spaces.
Why not leave them white or off-white and use
accessories and window treatments to bring it together. Personally, I like neutral color walls and like to decorate around them. You can bring the rooms together with nice window treatments, throw pillows, and candles with candle holders.
Pier-1 imports has great decorating ideas.
Good luck.
Yes, watch margins/font. Unlike 65 chars line, this
I was paid on gross line for years, and I found that it worked out to be about 2 cpl higher than 65 chars line. Thus, 8 cents per gross would equal to roughly 10 cents per 65 chars. However, as other poster stated, you have to make sure it's a 12-size font and 1-inch margins
Chars aren't counted in gross lines. If you have a 4-line paragraph...sm
you have 4 gross lines, no matter how long or short the sentences are. A heading on it's own line is 1 gross line. A signature on it's own line is 1 gross line. The date at the top of a document on it's own line is 1 gross line. Anything on a line going from margin to margin is 1 gross line, no matter how few or many characters, or if there are spaces or not, even if there's only 1 character on that line like 'A' for instance. Does this help? :)
They used to not pay for spaces, but a poster here said they are getting spaces paid. Are there 2
s
I don't think it can do that, it you are meaning
HE to He, etc.
I know the meaning is not
derogatory, any more than my grandmother was being derogatory when she said "colored people." Certainly, all the countries you mention (Middle East, etc) can be considered oriental, since the word just means of the east. ("We Three kings from Orient Are.") But I have never heard anyone use the term "Oriental" to describe someone from Turkey, or Saudi Arabia, or any Caucasian person in the eastern hemisphere; only to people from the Far East (many Americans tend to muddle people from these countries into a group because of their similar physical characteristics). At any rate, Asian is the favored term today. Oriental things (such as rugs) are a different story. My cousin (age 54) still uses the word "Oriental" for people from the Far East... she also gets Arabs and Indians mixed up. oriental/occidental
ps CTA meaning to cover their a**.

I said he is the same on the inside, meaning,
he still is the most tender-hearted man I have ever known in my life, the same as 28 years ago when I married him. He knows that I firmly believe that his drinking is wrong and that it is killing him (which I don't want to happen), but, leaving him is not something I want to do (been there, done that). I choose to stay. Not everybody's situation is the same and, Biblically, I have absolutely no reason to leave him nor do I want to leave. I hate to see him killing himself this way and that is something that I pray about daily.
I was not meaning you directly at all
guess I was just trying to get across the point that in other parts of the states southerns are protrayed as such. I am white, my husband is black and my mixed daughter was an English major in college here in the south and an accountant now, She, along with me, shutter when we hear ebonics. Like where you live and where I live outsiders would probably not believe with all the diversity, huh?
IC status meaning
I worked 3 weeks for a company as IC status. They wanted a schedule so I did one and then the work was not coming through so the third week was told not to do schedule; it did not look like the MD I was going to have would get into a routine. I did the work at night or early morning. Was told I had to work my schedule even if I had no work I had to be there in case it came in. Does IC status not mean TAT and production but flexibility with schedule as long as you get the work done. Also it went from 60 minutes to 120 and then at the time I finished the 100 minutes 85 more came through and it was like she expected me to do it right then. I had 24 hours. Also was called as soon as it uploaded at 4p.m. one day and was asked "ARE YOU TYPING". It was not my scheduled time and it had only been uploaded about 30 minutes. What is your take on this. IC does not mean be harrassed if not an employee with benefits right. No work for 3 days and then hounded as soon as it came in. I am not there now because I voiced my opinion.
Pay No Spaces, Type No Spaces nm

without spaces compared to with spaces
10 cpl without spaces equals to how many cpl with spaces?
Spaces versus no spaces....
Can someone tell me how big of a difference it makes if a company pays for spaces versus no spaces. I have only every been paid without spaces. I have been offered a position that pays for spaces, but the cpl is less than I am making now. I am not sure if getting paid for spaces will make up for the pay cut. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
IC meaning independent contractor?
As far as I know...no...for independent contractor, they do not have to pay any benefits or even take out SS, so I would think it would be MORE not less for IC. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
I am not meaning to start a firestorm, but can anybody SM
explain this? I'm not trying to get banned, but every other site on the net survives just fine and there is no such restriction on them.
Maybe I'm dense, but I can't even make up a sensible reason for it.
Exactly what I was meaning in post below, but you say it so articulately. Thanks.

It sounds to me like this MTSO needs to look up the meaning of IC. sm
From your description, you have been more than understanding. We set our hours and we work them, but are not sitting here every time something is needed. I have worked 3 IC jobs (simultaneously) in the last 1-1/2 years, and can tell you there are wonderful companies out there that are very considerate. You don't need this one.
Are y'all meaning Sylcount?
If you need an Expander too, you can get Instant Text, which has counting, invoicing, and reporting built in. :-)
Again, you've missed the meaning.
The interpretation is this: Money will speak louder than just writing a letter. Speak financially. Get it now?
'Plenty' meaning - the 6 or 7 people who
The sclerae (plural) are injected, meaning SM
Blood vessels are visible.

Isn't it an "at will" relationship, meaning that no cause is needed at all?

No, that's baloney. Study-up on meaning of 'cult'.

Previous reports, meaning another MTs work?

Lanier is proprietary meaning it will only work
with a Lanier system and you cannot use a C-Phone or DVI workstation to access a Lanier digital system. You won't be able to use it with a DVI system or Dictaphone. However, if memory serves, you should be able to use a Dictaphone C-phone or DVI workstation interchangeably with most other digital dictation systems and Dictaphone.
I'm glad you brought this up. I've been meaning to
It may depend on what format the files are in, meaning you may have to dink around with it. But it

Does anybody understand the meaning of EmErGeNcY room anymore?
I cannot understand why I type SO many ERs with trivial chief complaints such as:
sore throat - cough - pimple - splinter - blister - farted - (okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a little, but COME ON people!)
The most recent ccx.....Can I take a laxative? Not constipated, just needs to know if she can take a laxative along with her hypertension med. Thought she better go to the ER to ask. 
Why are these people allowed to be such a waste of ER resources?
Just a pet peeve....wondering if anyone agrees with me.....perhaps someone else who has spent hours in an ER waiting room for something or other.
isn't off peak meaning night/weekend and therefore would not count toward the 450? nm

well time to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas...
and please dont get me wrong... i know these times are hard for everyone and i hope your work picks up or you find a job that helps... but regarding the holidays... so many of us (myself included) have made this a buy buy buy holiday. I'm been so upset this year because I have bought barely ANY gifts but I simply cannot afford them. So then I realized, it is time for family and togetherness, as generic as that sounds... life is short... it's not about "things" it's about people. And I'm not super religious, but this is a good video below.
good luck on work!

Might be meaning the 3 boxes left upper corner??
the 3 little square boxed in the right hand corner, see them. The middle one makes a bigger screen. Unclick it and it goes back to regular size. This this what you meant.
Well, grammar/punctuation can dramatically alter meaning, so it IS important. nm

Your white cat
I have a feral kitten and I brought in a log for him to claw on and he loves it. You could try that.

White noise sm
I have a small TV and Bose radio/CD player in my office. I worked 30 years in a clinic setting and am just used to working with the sound of people around me. I have remotes to those two things, plus remote for ceiling fan/lite and DVD player on desk, lol. I think it might be time to get a universal remote.
White Chili
and homemade fresh salsa. Yum!
White tea and ginger (sm)
You can get it on the B&BW website--it's on sale now for $5, too.
What is white chestnut?...nm

The White House says they did not know about
and then went on TV to talk about taxes. I think if you watch FOX news you could see it was not democrats or republicans but everyday people who are sick of politicians lying to us. I have not seen any "Change" just more spending to pay back the people who bought this election. IMHO.....
white noise machine
I had a neighbor who had a dog who barked all night and also another neighbor who played music all night. I bought a white noise machine for about $20.00. I had a choise of ocean waves, birds chirping, rain hitting the house, thunder, so many more sounds and it worked..It would drown out the outside noises.I had tried ear plugs, calling the cops (the minute they left the dog and neighbor would start again), confronting the neighbors..nothing worked but the white nose machine..You can get one at any department store..
