Read carefully to understand ...
I work at MQ and Spheris both. Work PT at each.
Spheris: I make 10.67 cpl...BECAUSE I make my base of 8.67 cpl; I work at night and get 0.5 cpl shift diff; I produce more than 7000 lines a week and get 1.5 cpl production incentive.
MQ: I make 10.75 cpl...BECAUSE I make my base of 8.75 cpl; I do my weekend requirement to QUALIFY for produc incentive; I reach the minumum for the highest produc of 16,000 lines/pp giving me 2.0 cpl extra.
HINT: Spheris offers base rates up to 10 cpl but it is really difficult and challenging work and I don't want to work that hard! LOL
MY OPINION: Stop pitying yourself for your base rate...it's average and above compared to many. You will make your money with high production, high QA, and working evenings/weekends.
You are incorrect. Read more carefully..
All grads are offered the classes free. You can get a discount on the book if you are a grad as well.
Susan also authors the following info about this on the forums:
When you graduate, M-Tec offers a FREE study group for the RMT exam. We also have discounts on books/materials (study guides) that you can get here as well. I would not recommend taking the exam until you graduate, but I have seen a few who said they did and were successful.
Really....it is free for grads! I'm not arguing; I just don't want anyone to be misled.
You have not taken the time to carefully read the posts then
Don't come into the middle of something and start accusing the wrong people of stirring up trouble. I think you need to take a chill and read the posts below. If you take the time and stop looking at it with a prejudiced eye, you will also be able to see the thread. You are defending the wrong person here.
You didn't read the post very carefully.

Read my post more carefully, did not say not information
until the 2000s; I was not sent home until then. Am glad was able to work when I did in the hospital setting because the money was like a gold mine then, very different from now when MTers seem to be struggling to make a living. Approximately 2002 the hospital decided we could work from home and then decided we were disposable, so out of sight, out of mind also. I remember asking about going home to work first, you know that ask and ye shall receive part you posted, I did and frankly the hospital saw they could use our space and before long they instituted VR and then out we went. The salary, ask and ye shall receive, fell from highs in the 40s to not 25 a year now. Oh, but the comfort of home, don’t forget that.
See attached-read carefully-hope this helps
Question |
I get an attachment that is called winmail.dat but I can't open it. What can I do?
|
Problem |
When someone uses Microsoft Outlook to send messages through the Internet with attachments and they use the Microsoft Outlook Rich Text format, some recipients report that the message includes an additional file called the Winmail.dat file. The Winmail.dat file is usually very small, but you cannot open it in the message. The original message attachment is not always separate from the Winmail.dat file attachment, and may be included in the Winmail.dat file attachment.
This problem occurs because the Winmail.dat file is used to preserve formatting that the sending client includes in the message, but the receiving client does not recognize the Winmail.dat file. In Outlook, the Winmail.dat file includes Rich Text Formatting (RTF) instructions. This type of formatting is used with the Microsoft Outlook Rich Text format and when you use Microsoft Word as your e-mail editor. Only other Outlook users can read the attachments.
|
Resolution |
To resolve this problem the person sending the attachments with Outlook needs to do the following:
1. On the Tools menu, click Options and then click Mail Format.
2. In Compose in this message format, click to select Plain Text, and then click OK.

You obviously didn't read the post carefully. Try again in a more sober frame of mind.
It made sense to me.
Do it as I go and watch carefully when I run the
s
I tried your suggestion with listening carefully
I'm not sure what I'm listening for, but I didn't notice any difference.
I think the shaded out options must have to do with the company preferences. They've probably deselected the options, which I don't understand.
Thanks for trying.
You have to watch the breeding pretty carefully. SM
I've had weims since 1994. I just lost my old-man best friend in March. He was absolutely the smartest and most beautiful dog I ever knew and I will never stop missing him.
BUT. And this answers the OP, too. We had two or three years of sheer hell. I will say this. In his whole long life, he never made so much as a puddle in the house. Never. On the other hand, he sucked through 7 comforters, numerous sheets and quilts, two $100 jackets, put a hole in the lining of my beloved Carhartt coat, and numerous other soft items - the brand-new pillows on my brand-new sofa, and that happened in his last 6 months of life. In his exuberance to jump out of the car while I was foolish enough to be holding his collar, he broke the tuft of my ring finger. While trying to control him outside, I got a corneal laceration falling on a sharp weed. What else? I can't think. But this all was caused by my not asserting that I was the alpha member of our relationship early on. Once I got that taken care of, he was a love, the love of my life.
The most important thing of all is that you can't take one of these dogs, toss him out in the backyard to live, and expect him to be civilized. It can't be done. He'll turn right back into what he was bred for, being a hunting dog.
I have his daughter now, and she's a lunatic, because she was never taught right from wrong other than having the tar whaled out of her after she did it. She's very smart, too, but she's no Herschel.
You almost must raise them in the house with you or just leave them out to be a yard dog, but you will be missing a wonderful, beautiful relationship if you do that.
Weimaraners go to rescue because they are so intense. People fall in love with the puppy with the sky-blue eyes and can't handle the 80# teenager who can eat through a door (oh yeah. The bathroom door. He accidentally locked himself in the bathroom) in 10 minutes.
For all my griping, I am in love with this breed and won't have anything else.
Everybody who knows us said that each person on earth should have the kind of love I got from that dog.
You are lucky. But you better do your homework and follow the advice of people who know the breed. They're just different.
My mindset was carefully cultivated, watered, and
FERTILIZED by all the cr@p that management types everywhere think they can feed us.
Yeah I used to spend time carefully (sm)
crafting tactful feedback only to realize later that the MT had apparently not read it, deleted it, tossed it, whatever. You get to where you hear the same old excuses time and again and you realize that some people just don't care.
Another poster made the comment on how she didn't want someone to mother her; well, a lot of the MTs I worked with apparently did. They wanted me to be like a longsuffering mother and overlook their mistakes, take their excuses over and over and over again and offer tea and sympathy. They would repeatedly not write down what I told them, not look in reference books ("oh, I forgot you said to look there") ad nauseam.
So you get to the point where you're just sending to-the-point messages and you quit handholding. And then some people get angry because you're not "nice." Can't win for losing.
I do dog sitting but screen owner and pets carefully. I won't take just anyone.
:)
It was my first mistake ever...
and I'm sure you've NEVER made a typo in your entire life. You are my idol.  Oh, yes. Uh huh.
Not really NM above. Mistake.

Big mistake for me
I became an MT after my surgery because I can no longer drive at night and can no longer work in a building due to severe dry eye after the procedure. I used to be a computer programmer prior to Lasik, with the same company for 17 years. I miss my old job and my old eyes. My vision is not very good due to irregular astigmatism induced from the Lasik procedure and haze that formed in the cornea. Most people do not realize what can go wrong because you only hear about the good results. Unfortunately, I'm one who ended up with many, many unresolvable problems from this surgery and it has turned my life and freedom upside down.
mistake her for a man - LOL

My mistake
I'm sorry, it is definitely 10,000 lines, I think I must have been seeing 1000 minutes but thinking 100 minutes. Sorry about that. Very long day.
yep, your mistake then. thank you. NM

thank you Sandi, appreciate your help! My mistake
meant w/o blank lines but in my haste I worded my post poorly. Sorry!
She's not the only one who makes that mistake....
I had a medical records director 20+ years ago mark on our evaluation under "skill level", that out MT job needed little skill for the job. I refused to sign the evaluation and told her she should be ashamed of herself. Can you believe it? And she had an ART just like me...go figure!
oops mistake
Meant disk failures though your disc in your back could fail. Writing, thinking and typing all at once sometimes throws me off. Mind is working too fast.
Look, you made a mistake.....
no need to go on the defensive and start calling people fanatics. Just because someone loves their dog like their child doesnt make them fanatical. It also does not mean that because their pet is treated like a child that their pet is not trained. Are your children untrained? My goodness! My children behave very well. Treating a pet like a loved child, in my opinion, would mean they are treated with a lot of love tempered with discipline and boundaries. I think that you are fanatical in that you cannot seem to have a normal middle ground when it comes to these two issues.
SAW ON FOX NEWS SAID IT WAS A MISTAKE
They said Ryan gave a number said to be Chris's, but actually when people called in it was the voting number for the girl!!!! Everyone should hound the Idol website!!! I knew something had to be wrong!!
Just want to avoid the same mistake...nm

You are right...Homans' it is, my mistake. nm

I made a mistake....
For my hard hyphen I assigned Alt + H, not Ctrl H as I had posted.
I do remember (sort of) trying the hard space and I couldn't get it to work. I believe it put in an extra space. I'm sure I tried the backspace and pause features without luck, got frustrated and quit. I should try playing around with it again because that would be a great time saver. I know I have Dr. in my ESP as dr....but closing up that space would be better.
I believe it put in an extra space. I'm pretty sure I tried several combinationns
But you get DINERO for doing that! If it's the same mistake,

I'm sure she's aware of that mistake! nm

Oops! My mistake...sm
... you can dial in with your Lanier using VOIP just as you can with a regular phone line (I again said C-phone in my post below).
Mistake in post
My point: You mistakes
You forgot the word make. LOL. Couldn't resist
Why not call them and ask if there was a mistake?
Tell them that you were told you'd get pay for training and it didn't appear to be on this check.
Couldn't hurt!
Stoopid mistake
Okay, I need some feedback here. I did this stoopid mistake on one of my accounts over the weekend. I downloaded the jobs, was typing happily along and oh, about 30 reports in realized I had been putting the wrong doc's name on the darned things. AFTER they had been uploaded to the client. I've worked on this account for about six months now, and I have NEVER made this kind of error before. As soon as I was aware of the mistake, I immediately emailed my supervisor, but unfortunately there was nothing I could do to get the reports back and fix the errors.
I know that 'confessing' my mistake was the right thing to do. I also know the client must be pretty upset. To make matters even more embarrassing, I had just asked for more work from the powers that be since my monthly quota is only equal to about an average week's lines.
I guess I am looking for someone to tell me that I am not the only person who has done something so very stoopid. I hope I don't end up losing my job over this. It is the first major mistake I have made, so hopefully the company wouldn't be so short-sighted, but you never know. We had just gotten an email memo from the pres of the company a few weeks ago saying how since there were not enough reliable, quality MTs out there, the company is switching totally to VRE by the end of the year. Anyhow...
You can bet I will pay extra-close attention to the next jobs I get, if I get any...Can't believe I did this.
What do you all think? Thanks...
That to me is a very understandable mistake (sm)
I'm betting he does not end the report by saying his name - so you just assumed it was the same doctor each time and nothing jolted you to let you think otherwise - very understandable in my mind - I did secretarial work for 25 years before this and have done this for 13 - totally think innocent mistake - proud of you for owning up to it and not defending it - you made the mistake, corrected it and moved on - enough said. Chin up - you are still a good MT!!
Probably a simple mistake...sm
You know this is not supposed to be perfect. We are posting on here on free time when we let our guard down. Sometimes we don't go back and proofread our posts. When we are working we proofread and make sure things are right. I assume you never make mistakes?
funny mistake
I typed: the patient is an 86-year-old man being envaginated in the emergency room....
That's hot. javascript:editor_insertHTML('text','');
Guessing or mistake?
What is annoying about this is that the QA is making an assumption that you guessed rather than just made an honest mistake. Either way, it's a mistake. She should have kept mouth shut and not tried to analyze why the mistake might have been made. If it were me, I'd wait til I cooled off and then e-mail her, telling her that I did NOT guess and never do guess, but simply made an honest mistake.
To Truffle - Not a mistake
Do we work for the same company? How do you know?
Anyway, this was not a mistake or filling in QA. I don't mind following account specifics, as long as I know what they are. It is quite a lot of trouble to completely learn and prepare yourself to transcribe **strictly adhering to BOS** and then be told that is not the way it is really done. Other companies have done this as well. You need to give account specifics and be sure about them before transcription goes to QA in my own opinion, which means nothing.
Otherwise, I guess I could have worse problems. Just venting. And otherwise, I love the company, my account, and my QA.
In a big hurry to grow up at 20, BIG MISTAKE
No one at 20 has the life experience to know herself, let alone know what to want and expect in another person.
Second time, and successful time, age 39. Better to choose than to "settle" for whatever's in front of you at the time.
Apologize for the mistake...meant sm, not nm.
nm.
Big mistake to every go lower than what you currently make. Don't do it.
Do not lease. Big financial mistake for you. (nt)
I thought it was a teleprompter mistake-nm

I made the mistake of falling for that
pitch in 2004 when I applied at TRS. When I left one month later because they kept running out of work and bouncing me around, I learned to disregard any endorsements.
As it was later explained to me, the award is based on employee votes. Depending on how many people vote, it can be determined by just a handful of people. Hardly a ringing endorsement...
Easy mistake to make! (nm)

my mistake - I misread your post!! sorry...
and here's some new (OLD) info on Barak himself, who I almost was going to vote for UNTIL I read it.........thank goodness to my Canadian friend who sent it to us.
=============
I just think that we all should know some background of the person that we elect for the president of the United States of America. Please read, then make up your own mind who to vote for. Thank you,
Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu , Hawaii , to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black Muslim from Nyangoma-Kogel , Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white atheist from Wichita, Kansas .
Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii. When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His father Returned to Kenya.
His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a radical Muslim from Indonesia.
When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocated to Indonesia.
Obama attended a Muslim school in Jakarta.
He also spent two years in a Catholic school.
Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim.
He is quick to point out that, "He was once a Muslim, but that he also attended Catholic school”.
Obama's political handlers are attempting to make it appear that Obama's introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was temporary at best.
In reality, the senior Obama returned to Kenya Soon after the divorce, and never again had any direct influence over His son's education.
Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obama's mother, Ann Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam.
Obama was enrolled in a Wahabi school in Jakarta . Wahabism is the radical teaching that is followed by the Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world.
Since it is politically expedient to be a Christian when seeking Major public office in the United States , Barack Hussein Obama has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim background.
Let us all remain alert concerning Obama's expected presidential candidacy.
Please forward to everyone you know. The Muslims have said they plan on destroying the US from the inside out, what better way to start than at the highest level.
My mistake - OptiRay is for CTs, not MRIs
See? Even with 20 years' experience....
Everyone makes A mistake once in a while - maybe that MT is having a bad hair day! LOL. NM

Like a good MT, I caught MY mistake and

I agree...unless it is something that would likely be a mistake made by everyone...

the guy who posted it obviously made a mistake
because you're right - it shouldn't have been posted here.
