In Reply to: Un no, not Kiki...but I am southern! sm - as they were about animals...
what difference does it make where anybody is from...how about being a *bleeding heart* for ALL life...not just human and not just animals. God gave everything that breathes life, and we should respect that. human or animal. JMO

$2.89 in Western MA.
I always try to conserve my making every trip to town worthwhile. In other words, if I'm going to town to pick up one of my children from school, they're coming with me to the post office, bank, drug store, whatever else I think I should take care of while I'm there. This is what I've had to do to conserve precious time, and now am more determined reduce unnecessary trips when possible. Kids are learning to hoof it more, too.
I've switched driving my van with my husband's Saturn when I have to go out of town. So yes, big changes in how we do things around here.
One more thought, let's all try to remember how much it costs to fill up our tanks as opposed to the price per gallon. I just have a feeling the gas companies want us to feel good about settling in to a "low" price of $2.00/gallon at some point now that we're all shopping to find a "bargain" price that's under $3.00/gallon. I remember a few summers ago when it went from about $23 to $30 to fill my van. Now it's up to $75. I'll always remember how I felt when I hit the $30 mark, and will keep under $30 as my target price. (I know, I'll keep dreaming...)
I am in Missoula--western MT is much better! nm

know what's under them? Western clothing.SM
and not all of the women are heavy - some are very thin...most wear western clothing (like we do) under the burkas.....but only for in the home....not for public viewing...
Do think for a second WAQAR is in the western hemisphere?
no.
Because it looks like Kansas. Western MT is real Montana.

I'm in Eastern NC, too - where are you?
?
where in eastern AR? Me too
cool
why not try eastern montana
if you already work for a national why not go for eastern Montana renting or buying real estate is much cheaper and horse acres much easier to find
Middle Eastern. I don't know why.
I can do the others with no problem at all, but there's something about the vocal tone that I literally cannot hear it properly.
middle eastern accents
I had one yesterday for that sang and hummed most of the report. He dictated in a sing-song voice that made me think he was casting some sort of spell. In between words and sentences he would say, ahhhh, ummmmmmm, and then speed ahead with the sing-song again. And it was all in a middle-eastern accent. It was an extra long report and awful. I was so jittery by the time I finally finished.
Eastern Maine Medical Center
I miss working with other people. I miss having a QA person or a supervisor I know and can go talk to. I miss the hospital gossip and hearing about people's grandkids. Sigh. I left them to work at home figuring it would be all that. But it's not. Sigh....
$3.40 in eastern NC. I just sat in line for an hour to get gas, and they had a $35 limit. nm

How about middle eastern/indian trained
in Ireland and Scotland and thus have that accent with middle eastern pronounciations - have one that sounds like Shrek!!!
Eastern European -- Russian, Polish, etc.
Northern Idaho!
It reminded me of TV show "Northern Exposure". Rugged people, rugged landscape, natural beauty! Absolutely fantastic!
Northern NJ Rate
Hi - Can anyone offer insight as to what a fair per page rate would be for a neuro office in northern NJ? I would rather charge per line, but some of their other transcriptionists charge them per page, and I want to be competitive. Thanks!
Northern NJ rates
Hi,
I freelance for 2 different doctor's, one in Manhattan and the other in Brooklyn, NY, although not Jersey I charge 2.25 and 2.50 per page. I am not sure if this is the going rate as I have not raised my rates in 3 years. I guess I am just happy to have them pay on time...
Northern Arizona is cold, too

Northern California Clinic
If this information is correct, I for one am happy if my employer makes money. Let's take a poll...has anyone out there ever benefitted from working for a company that lost money/had to go belly up?
9 p.m. in northern Wisconsin and it's 82 and HUMID, oh dear..nm

Depends on where you are. In northern IL..that is starting pay. But I'd not believe the poster
 said they made that 20 years ago. Wages were not that high back then.
No, I'm in Philadelphia now, but I loved the northern' NYC 'burbs!

Northern Counties Secretarial Services - MN
Anybody ever work for Northern Counties Secretarial Services in Minnesota in the 90s? Used to be what seemed like a great company, but in the end, they did a few really good MTs dirty.
southern accents
Being a Yankee who now lives in the south, I can relate! Had far more trouble with the southern dictators than with the foreign ones.
And yest, those British & Australian ones are sexy!
Un no, not Kiki...but I am southern! sm
 we all use those words down here...and by "thang" I meant like "aint nothing but a thang..." which means really not that important...just FYI...NOT Kiki...whoever that is...
do you mean Southern Transcription? nm

French, especially the surgeons. Easiest: Middle Eastern, Korean, Chinese, Indian. nm

Southern Transcription Services
Any info on Southern Transcription Services would be helpful.

I prefer non-Southern accents
I'm from the south but lived out of the area for several years. My favorite accents are Northeast and MidWest. For a while I did MT for a hospital in rural Alabama where a resident from Cuba was working. He had acquired a number of southern altruisms that cracked me up with his thick Hispanic accent. I'll never forget when he treated an elderly woman who had received a rattlesnack bite to her foot through her "teenie shoes." (if I hadn't been from the south, I wouldn't have known he was referring to "tennis shoes!")
Once my dryer needed servicing and the repair man came out. After talking for a while I asked if he was from somewhere near southern Russia because of his accent. He got so excited that someone knew the geographic area of his origin! He was from a tiny little country bordering southern Russia! (one of my neurologists was from Russia). I love to try to place someone's accents

I have a bad time with southern accents too
Their words just sort of fall into one another and it seems like they put emphasis on the wrong part of the word, so I need to concentrate with them. The worst however is the Chinese accent by far. Especially when they do try to slow down and enunciate, it makes it worse.
I have noticed the southern accent. I like it. Don't like BO though. LOL. nm

Algarve, southern Portugal, wonderful spas
easy access to ancient castles, Spain, the larger cities of Lisbon and Oporto, next door to Morroco, wonderful free seafood, beaches. I could go on...
I live in a small Southern town and they have posted pictures of sm
people convicted of passing bad checks in the newspaper. How humiliating would that be?
By posting the bad checks, they see your name, but by posting your picture, they could recognize who you are.
I was told 12 cents per line in Southern California was too high (sm)
They can stick it because they should be paying 18 cents per line.
There is too much EMR and offshoring around here.
Southern fried chicken. We're having friend over, too. I love it but
I can only eat fried chicken once in a while. Makin SMASHED (taters, eh?), blackeyed peas and green beans with pepper sauce.
