IGNORANCE
You should really keep your mouth shut about the situation here in Florida and elsewhere. These folks have been devastated, homes gone, jobs gone, these are everyday people and NOT WELFARE LINE recipients. Wake up and stop being so self-centered. When one day you slip into a bad situation you will be asking for help too. I all most fell off my chair when I read your ignorant, uninformed post. You should be ashamed and ask forgiveness and apologize to this board for y our inhuman and slanderous insinuations.
MT in Florida ..

Sorry for the ignorance sm
I was using "anon" but not anymore since someone else has posted a nasty remark here. Why the nasty replies on here? I agree, this is supposed to be the helping profession. I think Cobra is only a bridge between jobs to help you with bennies but is only temporary, not sure of time, but this is the law and cannot be changed. I had to have private insurance just for myself as husband had his own on retirement but I was too young. I had to buy from a private Blue Cross through a group plan through the Chamber of Commerce in my area and so expensive. Big $$$ and no other way. I wish you the best, there is no real solution except to get into a job that offers bennies but sometimes you make more on your own and buying your own ins. Again, sorry some others are so mean, there are a few on here, unfortunately, that's why I chose to be "anon" before but never again! I am not associated with that poster.

Sorry about my ignorance here, but what does EMR really mean for the MT?

Even if the system goes electronic, won't MTs still be needed? Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question!

Dianna, whats ESC?

or do you have their web site?

Thanks again!!

so whats wrong with
sending your mom some flowers and saying you love her and are sorry but you are just dont feel comfortable and hope someday you can talk about it with her. I feel bad for you and I don't know what your relationship with her is, but reach out to her with love whenever you get a chance to no matter how she reacts to you in turn. Who knows, someday she might see the light. But I've found that you really can never tell someone the truth about someone they love without getting in trouble. THey don't want to hear it and won't hear it and it'll only make more distance between you.

Whats on at your house?

TV on for me. I can't do music though. Its usually the food channel or the news channel. Volume is where I can hear it but low.

whats the name of this book?

I am looking for this reference book that I used to use as an in-house Transcriptionist many mooons ago. I can't remember what it was but it wasn't Stedmans... I was thinking Drake, Tessier, or even HPI but I know it wasn't Stedmans.

Anyway, it would allow you to look up the word "needle" and then underneath have a huge listing of all of the different types... or you could look up "retractor" and it would list all the different kinds. It was INCREDIBLY thorough. I want to say it had a green cover but can't be positive.

Does anyone have any ideas? This book was so helpful in-house, I really want it to have at home too! Thanks!!

Whats your secrets?
I need all the help I can get....thanks

you are showing your IGNORANCE
Apparently that is all you have gained from 'getting out, living and learning'.

Knowledge of God is the beginning of wisdom.

I hope you truly 'get smart' by the time you have to give an account for all you have done and not done to the One that made you.

scuse my ignorance,
but what's an SE? Thanks

Sometimes, ignorance is bliss....sm
If I had known EVERYTHING about starting a business and listened to all the naysayers, I never would have done it. Bought a computer, printer, fax, and dictaphone(no on line work then), and sent out letters, flyers, had cards printed, and knocked on dr. office doors to get my own work. I pretty much knew nothing except how to transcribe and was very good at it, I thought! Soon learned I was very good at what I knew but just as green as a newbie with new fields. Ended up with a very successful service and 10-12 employees. Supported my family and still do. Big difference in being prepared now is having the capability to do voice files. Eventually, you need a phone so your name is listed in the phone book and an accountant to do the financial stuff. You just have to have the basic knowledge that you probably already have, and learn as you go.

Sorry, then, was showing my ignorance! :) nm

showing my ignorance
I did not know there were services like that, how do you contact them, what are they called?

Pardon my ignorance but sm
When did they start using flash drives and how? Most of mine don't know how to use the computer! Please share. Sorry for your problem, sounds like the office manager is gloating over this - it's their problem, not yours. Charge them for the lines find out how computer literate the staff is. They usually pay peanuts and get monkeys!

So, instead of dinner, whats for LUNCH?
YUM

Whats for Dinner Tonight?

Im hungry already!!

Medrite .... whats wrong with it?
A new account uses Medrite; was going to learn it possibly. Please tell me what's wrong with it. Thanks guys !

Whats wrong with ACDC :-)?
...

Whats for lunch/dinner??

I am just curious what everyone is having for lunch or dinner. Need some ideas on what to cook.

Have a good Sunday afternoon.

I agree... whats funny though

is when there is a group e-mail about proofing work and the specific e-mail about proofing had 2 spelling errors....and the e-mail is a total of 3-4 sentences.

I dunooooooooo.

I do believe we had the same PS and WFC... when you talk about dropped letters LOL.

I don't care if they aren't typists..they certainly get paid more than me and should be way more professional. I certainly wouldn't get a job as anything if I sent a resume like that. They are supposed to set an example.. they are our *bosses*.

whats wrong with being happy sm
they got caught? That is one thing wrong with this industry. It has turned into "production"only, nobody cares about quality and they want to screw you out of money. If her skills are good they know it and they will need them. If this gives her "bargaining" power and she wants to go back, so be it. It would be hard for me, but if I wanted and needed the job I would suck it up and go back. They aren't going to do this crap again. If everyone would turn these people in, then this junk would stop. I take great delight in the fact that places are finally getting caught for cheating people. They should.

hypospadias is a word - whats your question?
nm

Whats for din din tonight? Need some good recipes!!!!
I usually have lots of ideas but starting to run out . Need something different for a change.

My foot pedal is broken, Whats the best to buy?

Im getting a new foot pedal, I need a heavy duty one cause this last one is about to give way.

So what is a great buy? Any recommendations?

Dictaphone/Nuance?.....Whats the new website?

So.....Nuance bought Dictaphone or Dictaphone changed their name...? What is the website for dictaphone....Nuance?

Thanks!!!!!

They say ignorance is bliss. You must be a very ingnorantly

Hate to show my ignorance ... what is ME? nm

Their ignorance doesn't hurt me

as much as the ignorance of people who should know better - like our "supervisors" etc. The only answer to nurses or anybody else who thinks like them is to give them a test tape and let them "have at it". That's usually a good eye opener, or mind opener.

Its human nature to impose on other people whats right for yourself!

Even when its not asked for. Maybe some people like to surround themselves with nonsense and chaos, where as I like peace and quiet! I think people who like working with other people are either pretending or just plain crazy!

Fall recipe ideas. whats for dinner?
s

Okay, I am going to show my ignorance, but don't you still have to have a foot pedal and...sm
so have to be connected to an outlet? I know you can have that on your porch/deck, etc. but that does limit the mobility aspect doesn't it or can it be done without a foot pedal? I don't mean to sound stupid, but this is all new to me.

Ignore them - pure ignorance on the subject

Your obvious ignorance is not worth responding to, NM

Guess I have to show my ignorance -- what is myspace? TIA nm

I hate to show my incredible ignorance, but how do I sm

find out what type of processor my computer has? I know it is a Pentium, but I cannot remember if it is a 3 or a 4. I tried System Tools, but that was of no help at all. :(

Thanks for your help.

Vigo whats his face from Lord of the Rings!!!!! YUMMMM

Mensa AND common sense -- prejudice obviously ignorance
Oh bosh. I am a member of Mensa and a medical transcriptionist. I think it is VERY narrow minded of the whole bunch who criticize something they no NOTHING about. Mensa is simply an organization whose qualification is that you test in the top 2 percent on any of a couple of different IQ tests. High IQ and common sense are not mutually exclusive. I have two other comments: Intelligence is matriarchal (look it up) and if you would like the cheapest way of finding out your true IQ Mensa is generally the cheapest way to do it. It used to consist of 15 bucks and a Saturday morning at a university test -- but I'm sure there are more modern ways now. Contact American Mensa and find out. They are a very interesting bunch and have special interest groups which consist of just about any topic you can think of from alcoholics to chocoholics to irish dancing and beyond....

Should I chalk your post up to just plain old ignorance, the fact that you can't read or SM
are you just plain stupid!

Pardon me, but your ignorance and obvious lack of class are showing.

get a life, this is extensively documented. Pick up a book some time, ignorance
