are you pleased
??
I was very pleased (sm)
So pleased, in fact, I became one of their affiliates. Their course is very comprehensive, and their staff is super. I now have a web site telling my story and how to become an MT and work from home. I love what I do and get asked all the time how to do it. I took the course in 1999 and am still going strong! Visit my web site if you would like more info on Career Step. Good luck!
We are so pleased.
I think I speak for a lot of the medical transcriptionists who view this site. It is so nice to have the help and support of other medical transcriptionists around the country. Thank you so much for giving us this free website to use for entertainment, discussion, education, etc.
very pleased with results (sm)
I had never heard of it until I read it on the post a few days ago. Finally got around to trying it last night. Felt great. I made the mistake of using too much water at first too but then I tried again with just a tiny bit of water and used a cotton ball to apply. Awesome. I was pretty sold on the Mary Kay Microdermabrasion which I use about once a week. Now I may not restock on that product and it is not cheap. I bought the store brand aspirin and it worked great. Thanks to the person who brought it to this message board.
I had it done a few years ago. I am pleased with it. nm

Congratulations! You should be pleased!
Used it for the first time this year and very pleased. sm
We had a deduction we had no idea existed and would not have come across if we'd done it by pen and paper. We also received our refund very quickly, less than 2 weeks direct deposited. It did take a long time to go through the whole process, longer than expected, but we will definitely use it again next year.
I've been pleased with Bayscribe ... sm
I think it's a lease/rental all-web-based rather than a big install with equipment.
It seems to be pretty easy to update account specifics and MD rosters, templates etc.
I can't use the bayscribe Expander at the same time as my personal expander so I use my personal expander; however, most people seem very happy with the Bayscribe expander -- it's fast, etc.)
It has a pretty good autosave feature in the event of power outage or user error.
The sound quality is very good.
Oh, and it has a really -- imho -- great review QA feature that lets you do side by side comparison on all blanks, qa corrections, etc. making it much easier, faster and on-point to review QA.
Check it out online.
We closed our accounts before going with CCCS. Have been very pleased with the way they have handle

I look at the jobs posted and tons of MTs are applying. I am employed but not terribly pleased with
prefer OPs and have done MT work for about 16 years. I have worked for MQ for 11 years for the Univ. of Pa. which they lost and now I am working for a small company in Michigan with just tons and tons of crap work. I would like an IC job with OPs if possible.
I hope this applies to companies like Medquist. I hope there
isn't a way they can get around it. I REALLY hope.
Certainly you should have to meet your
But as the MTSO it is not your business to know what I am doing with my time unless I am not meeting the deadline. I have a deadline to meet with all of my clients, but I certainly do not report to my clients my daily goings on in my life as it is none of their business. As an independent contractor, the MTSO cannot set my hours. Punching a time clock is for employees not independent contractors.
How many here would like to meet?
Let's start with a few southern places and see how many would actually meet in spring next year:
1) Memphis, Tennessee
2) St. Louis, Missouri
3) Kansas City, Missouri
4) Atlanta, Georgia
5) Dallas, Texas
Anyone interested in getting a group in for 2-3 days in any of those places next spring?
It might help if several of you set up a day and time and meet there.

How do you meet the buyer?
Do you have to let strangers in your house? I'd be afraid they'd be looking around to case the joint.
She still has to meet TAT and recording
not a good idea. What if that report is recorded off and the hospital/office needs access to it right away? If she is off somewhere with it on a tape, that could be a huge problem.
IC doesn't mean you can do whatever you want to do! And if recording makes the sound quality such that you cannot produce an accurate report, then I would think that would be unacceptable.
Curious - just to meet?
Dallas, TX
I would meet in Dallas also.

Here! Good to meet you. That guy was
something else, but did give me a chance to learn ops at an hourly pay, so I have him to thank. That was a long time ago, and far far away! Memories! Hi to all my friends who worked in the room with no lights, and the money tree with the bugs. LOL.
Overhire as long as one meet TAT

Meet me here Saturday night.
I would love to chat. I'll be working Saturday evening if you want to check back then.
I too have struggled to meet quota since (sm)
starting DQS, but nothing has been said to me about it. But if they do ask why, you better believe me, I will give them more than an ear full! I hate working and feeling like if I don't meet production, I'm gonna lose my job or something. This job is already stressful enough between the bad dictators and feeling like I'm getting my lines ripped off since DQS, I mean come on, they need to give us a break! 
Howdy, nice to meet another PJ.
I love psych, but the work is hard to find as many facilities keep that one for in-house only due to all the extra precautions that need to be taken regarding psych info. If you land an account, you guard it with your life!
So Nice To Have A Place To Meet Again!
I wish the MT help desk would come to this board to answer questions, etc. I hate talking on the phone, being put on hold, being transferred from one person to another, getting called back when I'm changing a dirty diaper, etc.
For you married folks, how did you meet? sm
Through friends/family? At school? Met each other at the grocery store when you reached for the same loaf of bread at the same time? Through an internet dating site?
MEET ON DIET BOARD???!!!
This is excited to hear so many on and starting out with this diet. I am starting a thread on the diet board so we can keep track of progress!!! This will be great support!!!
I think she should meet him in public place..nm

If you meet the criteria for an IC, they are right. If you do not, they are just calling you that
:P
CHAT ROOM MEET @ 7:00 EST
Hi all,
There is a group of us planning to meet in the chat room at 7:00 EST tonight. All are welcome. 
Agree with you. As long as you meet TAT, you

Have 3 years to meet all the CE requirements.
LOL Yeah, my Mom used to tell me that if I wanted to meet guys,
I had to go where the guys were. If you wanted to meet a jock or a guy who watches sports, go to a football game or something. Home Depot = handy guys. Library = smart guys. Grocery store produce department = desperate guys, especially when they ask you how you can tell the cantaloupe are ripe! I met my guy at a car show = motorhead guy. Sporting goods department = fishing/hunting widow.
Pot, meet kettle. Your posts are all over the board. sm
...just because they are responding, and probably not even as vocal as you've been on here. That just reduces any point you were trying to make to shreds, sounding juvenile and defensive instead of engaging in reasonable debate -- but worst of all, acting like you are superior and somehow smarter than all the rest of us when most of us have known all about this big "news flash" of yours for years now. You say you wouldn't hate others for what they believe in, but when someone spoke up saying they like ASR, you insulted her by saying she must not have been a fast typist then. ASR isn't going away, no matter how many people quit MQ citing that as a reason. Many times, it's not even the MTSOs who sell doctors on ASR - there are companies out there courting the doctors, pumping them up with sales talk about how great it is and how much time/money they'll save. THOSE are the ones the rest of us are aiming at, and wisely so. Think about it, do you think the MTSOs like it when clients go to ASR and lower the rate they are paying the MTSO?? If the MTSO also sells the equipment, maybe. Otherwise, doubtful. It's new technology and MTs must adapt for now, as chances are good it will flame and then fizzle out. MANY, many doctors have already tried it years back, hated it, and returned to traditional dictation. As you've been told, this is NOT a new development so it's not that people don't care; they just aren't as urgently impressed by the rants since it's old news. It lurked on the horizon for a long time before it ever actually hit the shelves and a lot of us researched it prior to it actually being utilized.
Yes, there are plenty of issues that are pulling MTs everywhere down. Offshoring is one of them. Has been for years. ASR/VR is one of them. Has been for YEARS. Maybe this is news to you, but again, most of us have known about these things and been proactive about/against them for YEARS by not accepting lower rates and not offshoring or working for companies that do.
I will reiterate, though, that one of the biggest issues dragging MTs through the mud is something that is perfectly fixable - the BEHAVIOR of some MTs. Unprofessional, juvenile behavior is not considered a desirable quality in any employee. Lack of work ethic and false sense of entitlement are two more traits that are not desirable in an employee. Someone who has only been in the business for a few years but thinks they know more than MTs who worked on manual typewriters is yet another undesirable. MTSOs read this board all the time and take note of these things, and when certain names come up on resumes, they go immediately to the circular file, if you know the flavor of THAT Kool-Aid.
That is making ends meet, not meat by the way.

Ever call people you meet online?
I feel a little weird calling someone that I met online. Yet several people have left me their phone numbers to call them just to chat or some ask me to IM (instant message) them. Are they too trusting? Am I too mistrusting? It just feels weird to me. I am on my own. No kids or anything. Soon to be 45 years old. So I guess maybe that comes across in my e-mails that I am lonely and they are just trying to be nice. However, I would prefer just to leave a message on the message boards like this one or send an e-mail. I guess I want to know if others are exchanging phone numbers over the internet and IMing people they meet over the internet? The people I meet are usually people suffering from autoimmune disorders or people in chronic pain. They are usually responding to a message I left. I can't do anything about this condition so I try to focus on others and offer whatever words of encouragement I can over the internet to those suffering.
This is the way I look at it. I could work 4-5 hours and meet the 1890 they required for FT, but th
When they did that, it just made me care a whole lot less, so I try to get my 945 as a part-time person in my 4 hours. I know some of the reports I get are just horrible, but I can deal with them.
wish I knew where to go to meet, date and marry a man with a lot of money!!!
nm
yes, and how does one meet their required quota with no work for hours on end?
One can only "make up" so much downtime!!
Do any companies give raises - if so, what criteria do you have to meet?
nm
If you meet guideline, you are IC. Taxman has guidelines for what is IC in your state.

Apply for a business loan to meet payroll.
super told me to meet lines of 12000 or be dropped to SE
i thought there was only 2 types of employees; statutory or full time
Get samples. Proof your work. Have back up equipment. Meet TAT.

an overworked, underpaid, still expected to meet production go to person.
Gee, wish all these newyorkers would meet on the New York State board. It gets lonely up here.

I would suggest that several of you choose a time and day to meet in chat. That usually works

Don Pablo's happy hour from 6-8. Only night I get out with no kids and meet with friends. NM

Here I sat feeling so incredibly lonely. Wishing I could meet my soul mate
All the men I have ended up with sound like the guy you are with. Takes all the courage I have to pick up and leave them but staying with them destroys my sense of self esteem, my sense of humor, and dulls my passion for life.
Now, sitting here, quietly, sipping a capuccino, sitting in a robe, having no expectations (unrealistic) of me, not having the guy in my world stifling me or doing something out of this world to send my spiraling into my mind trying to figure out what he is thinking ...orrr the always present poor financial state that I always seemed to end up in when with a guy (my dad was alcoholic - had tendency to be with men who had character traits of addictive personality types)and all I can think of is life is passing me by cause I am not with a man.
There are worst things than being alone. Why do I forget this???
Follow your gut. Your kids will thank you. Children deserve a happy mom and you deserve to live the life you envision.
Was going to suggest that you wait to buy as I have a feeling some homes will end up in foreclosure as the interest rate increases and the monthly payments on ARMs and interest only loans increase, but if you have a small town that may not be the case.
Let us know how things go.
Why the stupid idiots called everyone to work on the holiday to make sure they meet their 1 hour TAT
time.
