What's your favorite food. Favorite in that you could only have one last meal what would it be?
Indulge me while I stare at computer screen waiting for Q work that isn't there.
I love spaghetti but only served with a great salad with olive oil and some garlic bread. Can't have pasta alone. And needless to say a glass of red wine. No dessert, just extra spaghetti.
our meal is a 30-minute meal....*L*....nm

Dessert anyone?
Cherry Cake Pudding
1 1/2 cups cake flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 4 tablespoons margarine 1/2 cup granulated sugar 2 eggs, well beaten 1/2 cup milk 1/4 cup cherry juice 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 cups canned red cherries, pitted
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a 1 1/2-quart baking dish.
Combine cake flour with baking powder and salt. Cream margarine; add sugar and cream until light and fluffy. Add eggs; beat until blended. Add dry ingredients alternately with combined milk and cherry juice, beating smooth after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract. Place drained cherries in baking dish. Pour batter over cherries. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until done.
Serve warm, plain or with whipped cream.
some use it as--before every meal

Maybe a taco bar with an ice cream sundae bar for dessert? nm

Ever try cooking a meal in someone else's kitchen? sm
You know how to cook, but have a tough time finding where everything is kept in that kitchen so it takes a while longer. You could cook the same thing in your own familiar kitchen in half the time. This goes for MT, too. It takes a long time, even for those of us who have been transcribing half our lives, to get used to new formats, new work type codes, new voices, and learning idiosyncrasies for each and every dictator. It takes time--a few months or more. Be patient, and the line counts will surely add up as you become more familiar with the account.
He is one fry short of a Happy Meal.
Whatever, but it would be a huge meal and take me months to eat it. nm

I agree, if I knew it was my last meal I would
Now if I were stranded on a desert island for days without food and a waiter dropped in and asked what I would want, probably the first thing would come to my mind is hamburger well done, restaurant not Micky D's, and fries, and dreyer's chocolate chip ice cream for dessert.
Lunch- -most important meal of the day!
I work 35 hours a week. I have a scheduled 8-hour shift and take a 1-hour lunch break, leaving me with 7 hours of production a day. My advice is to do the 35-hour schedule. You'll probably be more productive (lph) at 35 hours than 40, and you'll always be able to add extra hours later if you want to. Don't skip lunch or eat at your desk. You'll feel so much better if you take a real lunch break everyday.
ditto... The sweet wines are like dessert. The Amanas are the
They're like the 31-flavors of the wind world. And I'm less than 20 miles from an Amana shop that sells all this gorgeous stuff! Danger, Will Robinson, Danger!
I'm weird, but if I KNEW it was my last meal, I wouldn't

A hot meal, ready to eat is perfect and it doesn't
have to be fabulous. A meatloaf with some veggies made all together in a throwaway pan is easy to make.
Baked ham, corn souffle, green beans, dessert....

Not a sightseeing place but for a good lobster meal, sm
Chauncey Creek Lobster Pier, Kittery Point, ME.
You bring your own cocktails, appetizers, tablecloth. It is creekside, very casual, parts are open air and parts under a tent. You pick your lobster, they cook and bring to your table. Just fabulous, just get there early because parking is limited.
New Hampshire, there is no sales tax on liquor.
Just driving up the coast of Maine is fabulous.
Have fun!
BBQ chicken, baked beans and garlic toast with M&M cookies for dessert! nm
Why not provide the meat and have every bring a side dish, appy, or dessert? You're looking at to
s
For me, it's ham, mashed potatoes/gravy, yeast rolls and some nice dessert, pie or cake.
nm
Southwestern chicken and rice, corn nuggets, sweet tea and brownie ala mode for dessert! nm
Homemade chicken Enchiladas, fresh salad, fresh fruit for dessert (nm)

he was my least favorite as well, but what comes around goes
Brenda cheated on him with just about everyone, even a woman, the first season? Still in shock. There are three more shows left, who else is a goner?
My favorite is
tea sweetened with apple juice, maybe squeeze of lemon or lime or if I want to get real crazy some of that bottled pomegranite juice! Very refreshing and no refined sugar.
who is your favorite?
I relate to all 4 women in some way or the other I think. I think Miranda might be mine. They are all great.
My favorite....
very tough choice, but probably Charlotte : )

My favorite, too, and...
you can find great sales. I always keep an extra on hand, just in case.
I had wrist/elbow problems until I started using the 4000. It's a work and a wonder!
However, now I can't type on a straight keyboard to save my soul. It's a fair trade, I think.
My favorite is...sm...
Bytescribe wav player. I've tried Express Scribe and Start Stop. Express Scribe doesn't have good sound, and Start Stop was very buggy. I've heard the older versions are better. I bought mine in December 2005. Wouldn't work right after several install/uninstalls. Tech support couldn't help me. I didn't have time to send it back before while it was eligible to return.
I play DSS files, and there's a trick to getting DSS files to play really really well on a Bytescribe. Bytescribe wav player was made for wav files. You can email me if you want to know how to do this or call Bytescribe. They have another program you can use that converts DSS to Wav files. It's already on your computer if you use the Wavplayer.
I would recommend Bytescribe if you're playing Wav files and Olympus DSS player pro if you're playing DSS files, although I've never tried DSS player pro but heard it's good.
I think it's worth the money to invest in a good player. It will pay for itself over and over again in productivity and less mistakes because you can hear better. It also pays to have a very good sound card on your computer, especially if you're on a laptop.
favorite and most used
The Stedman's Pathology and Lab Medicine Words, 4th edition. You can find anything in there from bacteria to blood tests, etc. love it!
My favorite one of all is
woman came in with shortness of breath and difficulty breathing after eating p___is. It was supposed to be after eating "peanuts."
my favorite was
when I worked inhouse at a hospital a girl that worked in medical records was talking to her coworker who also did medical records and said loud enough that I would hear "a monkey could do transcription." I guess insecurity plays a part in this kind of talk. They must want their job to look more important. Sorry, I cannot think of other reasons why people talk this way.
My favorite....
CHIEF COMPLAINT: Drunk.
and my favorite..
I love it when they think they're being helpful and spell a word but spell it hopelessly wrong!
My favorite
I really do love doing PT and OT except when they do their discharge summaries.
Why? Because they have to list how many treatments, no-shows, and cancellations the patient had.
most of the time dictators have this information gathered before they dictate, but there's this one woman who constantly has us listen as she turns each page and counts up the totals. So basically we hear "patient was seen... page turn 1, page turn 2, page turn 3, etc., until she gets to the total number of visits, (which can sometimes get upwards of 40!)
then she starts over turning pages and adding up the no-shows
and THEN she starts over turning pages and adding up the cancellations

My favorite is the doc who either
has a conversation with other docs and/or nurses when they should be dictating, or answering a phone call while dictating. I do VR and all that garbage goes into the report, and I have to delete all of it. Of course, some conversations can get quite interesting.
Here is my favorite
http://upin.ecare.com/
I use this multiple times a day. You can put in a partial first and/or last name and search by specialty, search by zipcode, search by state, or search any combination of those. Quick and easy to use, very basic.
Ops always my favorite
from day 1. Started on ops as a beginner, still doing them and love them. Don't mind the other basic 4, but find all the meds and lab results annoying at times.
favorite snack
I have so many "favorites" I can't even begin to choose.
Favorite snack
I luv Vienna sausage and crackers. Can also be a quick lunch!
What are your favorite dictators?
I like the ones who right when they begin dictating, turn around and speak directly into their armpit. Or how about the ones who carry on a complete conversation in English to the nurse next to them, then when they start dictating they sound like one of those auction guys who have had a few drinks?
My current favorite....
revises every sentence at least 3 times without fail. My first runner up dictates on a cell phone, drops every other call, and spells out every other word in case I don't know how to spell anything with more than 6 letters.
Favorite dictators
I have one guy, who really seems nice, thank's you each time at the end of the report, apologises if he has to correct something he said, long reports, BUT, he usually dictates at home, while cooking,bathing the kids and NOW, we must have a new dog because we are deciding to train it while dictating .
It's a verbat account so I really should have put in all the "sits, stays, good dog..would have made a fortune.
BUT (again), if it were'nt for the fact that the ER he works in is over 140 miles away, I'd have been in the ER, requesting him, to treat me for my ruptured ear drum, when he must have forgot the doggie treats and this dog started barking, loud, blew my eardrums out, had to crank the volume wayyyyyyyyy down, could NOT hear him, except for the good dog's and sit, I'll play later
My two favorite specialties...
...radiology and op reports. In speaking with MTs, people who like one tend to like the other. I think it's because they both are fairly technical and have "flow." You're moving through a procedure or a test, and when you're done, your done.
I got into radiology without knowing anything about it and was the team leader within months. Just make sure you have a good reference or two, know your bones, muscles, and physiology, be willing to look up names of isotopes, machines, etc., and you'll do great!
favorite season
Hi
My season is definitely fall. I am up here in northern Maine and it is so pretty with the leaves changing, etc. Of course then comes all the snow - and I don't even mind the cold or the snow but since I am getting to be "old and brittle" I am scared of the ice. However, I really am looking forward to October.
Fall is my favorite
Summer is too hot!! Fall is just right and football starts!
This is my new favorite show...
