Communism
Yep, she is one. I am going to vote for her anyway (at least I think so). Even in her pink condition she is at least a known element. I am a card-carrying Republican, but if McCain is the only choice then I pass. He is only a Democrat with delusions of conservatism that he is now wielding like a club trying to make the party "come together." If I have to have a Democrat president at least I will have the Democrat of my choosing. Obama is too scary (he looks like the Joker in Batman and I question how he "brings all those people to tears" anyway). I saw all his campaign promises (or what he wants to promise to promise more accuarately) and they are truly racist. Really, go check them out and see what I mean. I believe that at least HC can make the hard choice when it has to be made, unlike her DH, who was too politically correct and too busy with Monica to pay attention to what needed to be done and make those choices. I know that everyone seems to "love Obama", but a long time ago a lot of people just "loved Hitler" too. Then, when he was in power everyone saw what it was really all about and it was not good. As for Huckabee, he is just too "cute" and "down home" and not at all what I look for in my president. Something is off about him. Why does he think that his bass guitar playing will show us what he is made of? If anything, when he was governor of Arkansas he proved he was NOT a conservative at all and was actually closer to a Democrat. His judgment is way off and he proved it. His tax ideas are truly frightening. If he has his way we will be actually paying taxes equal almost to those paid in Europe, about half of what we make when we consider the sales taxes that we already pay. So, to me, that means 28% more than what we already pay, in my state over 7% and then there are all the local "penalty taxes" on gas, etc. I think he should just cool it and get a job playing bass in a bluegrass band and leave the running of the country to people who know what they are doing and have good judgment. He is a nice man, or seems so, but his very presence in the race just makes me shake my head and wonder about a lot of things. I think of all the candidates that HC is the one with the most experience (albeit second hand for the most part), the best temperment, and is a realist too. She is still "pink", but like I said, if I have to choose a Democrat I choose her!
I am 31 too and maybe it starts in your 30s. Who knows
I hate it when I have just uploaded a report and I freak out thinking I left something off or forgot to check something. I feel so dumb!
I think have children robs you of brain cells too!
Do you know when it starts? TIA.

well thats' where it starts...

Just because someone first starts
out as an MT does not make them unqualified for QA. In fact, an experienced MT chosen for QA at their present company is better, because they know the particulars of the company and the accounts.
The one that starts at 5 cpl?
See recent posts on the Company board, threads starting with ''DIT Pay from horses mouth via email'' and ''Ditt Transcrition SM.''
Their attitude usually starts it!...sm
I've dealt with some really helpful techs, but mostly alot of real winners (not):
One experience I had at MQ (no longer work for them), but I told the tech that the modem they just sent to me was fried. He told me that was impossible; they check everything before shipping. He made me do this and that for about an hour! When none of that worked, he said, "you don't know anything about transcription equipment do you?". I told him I knew enough to know when a modem is fried, and probably said something else! He told the supervisors that I was rude and whatever else he wanted. The next day the supervisor called and alluded that we had a "personal problem"! UGH!
After two supervisors had me do this and that with the modem and computer, they decided the modem was unusable and would ship me a new one (24 hours later with me losing work time while paying them to rent the equipment, not to mention getting stressed and frustrated wasting time with the tech with an attitude).
Your being frustrated and sarcastic is perfectly understandable! But, yeah, they "tell" your supervisor!
I don't believe it starts as a disease. I
fully believe it starts as something to pass the time or forget problems, but then the body becomes dependent and then it causes disease.
Actually, when it starts a sentence

just be careful when a doctor starts doing that - sm
I had a doctor in Miami contact me to fill in while his Transcriptionist is out for three weeks. I told him that I wanted 8 cents/gross line. I went that low because he was giving me 48 hours to turn it around. He told me that was ridiculously high and that he could never pay that amount. I talked to his office manager and asked her "just exactly how much transcription are we talking about here?" She said he fills a 60 minute tape every day. I did the math based on ALL the information I was given, and it came out to $60/day at 8/gross line. This MIAMI CARDIOLOGIST felt that paying $60/day was TOO HIGH - and he did not want to pay the fed ex to boot! He was looking to pay 4 cents/line. He did find someone for that rate.
It sounds like this is a doctor who will break you down to work for practically nothing - but beware, this also sounds like a doc that is shopping around behind your back to look for a transcriptionist that will do the work for less $$.
who starts these polls - the administrator

A group of people starts with one.

Actually, It starts there, then carries on will all the company links and ads.

before slamming starts..pay is good..work is there..sm
before the naysayers (or the ones cycling through the system) start, we pay top money, always have AND the work is there...have never had complaints of not enough work. I have had people claiming to do 100+ reports a day that do 20 a week...I have had MTs claiming that they have never had reports returned and yet every report they produce is full of errors or blanks. So either there are clients out there that take anything produced and have editors they pay to fix everything or these people are in LALALALALAL land.
I have had seasoned MTs apply that can not produce quality work...so while I have "been there and done that" as to working for national companies that give you 3 or more accounts because they over hire...worked for national companies that get you up and running then switch you to ESL only accounts so you never make bonus or even lines for the day...I have also been on the end of hiring and setting up people that have stolen equipment, programs and clients. I have hired people after good screening that have never started work, or worked one day and then never worked again.
It is a two way street...there are good MTs (all of which must be working because I sure have not found any lately) and there are bad..the same bad ones that slam newbies on the boards or give snippy answers for everything posted. AND htere are bad MTSOs out there too. Not everyone is a perfect match for each other, but as someone that has been on both sides, it gets old to constantly hear about the bad MTSO or even national companies, but we never hear ANYTHING about the bad MTs that are out there...and there are...ask any MTSO :-)
I'm not in QA, but I've always typed it P.r.n. if it starts a sentence, sm
as in 1. P.r.n. ibuproben. If you were typing out the Latin for pro re nata, that's how you'd do it (or at least I would), i.e. 1. Pro re nata.
However, I agree with "fixing" it when allowed. Some accounts are strict verbatim, others are what I call "smart verbatim," where they let you fix things to make sense, be grammatically correct, etc.
Get a good word expander for starts - sm
I started with ShortHand but then bought Stedmans Smartype which I love; and also a good spellchecker (again I use Stedmans). I don't know how I did it before w/o these. It is like night and day. They help out tremendously do save lots of time. So if you don't already have either of these, I'd highly advise getting them; very necessary to help speed up production, etc.
It counts the lines it ends up with, not what it starts with. nm

Yes, those. They look "heavy", and even when a post starts out "another perspective"
Big red flag!! Grab the BP pills, and read at your own risk! Sort of like the way my heart twists along with my stomach when my husbands says, "Now, there's something we need to talk about"...I know that is NEVER good, cause men never talk about stuff first!
I go through this every year when the school district starts hiring.
And I have cabin fever really, really bad from being home with the kids almost 24/7. Plus, I don't get much adult interaction in the summer because all of my friends are busy with their own families, vacations, work, etc. We don't get together as often as during the school year.
The work part of it is OK. I have good accounts, but it can be boring or frustrating with interruptions. Like the other poster, I have to play music in the background and buckle down to be productive. However, there is something to be said for the flexibility that I have in working at home. I'm here for the kids. I can take a break whenever I want to. I don't have to get dressed up or drive anywhere. No office politics. No supervisor screaming at me. No out-of-town travel. I have my own office now. I have total control over the thermostat. I can eat whatever I want to whenever I want to. I'm saving money by not using daycare. I make as much or more working part-time than if I worked fulltime, paid daycare, and had to drive to and from a job. Best of all, I have time during the day to exercise, clean the house, or do my hobbies. I'm not so exhausted by the end of the day that I just slap food on the table and veg out in front of the TV. I don't watch TV at all any more! For me, the benefits are still good enough to keep doing this for at least a few more years. I can always go back into the workforce when the kids are older.
I think you are right. I am seeing the same things. I hope it starts soon..I love it. Will visit

Well, if your company starts with a T.. the reason you see work but none in your job list is because
to the Indians for their shift..It's always feast for famine with these companies.
I have a PA-C that starts every sentence with.."The pateint will...." ARGH!!. nm

LOVE my job....Counting down hours til my shift starts
I love my job and my part-time IC jobs, too. I'm a workaholic, granted, but I've been a workaholic and not necessarily liked the job(s) I was working. At this point in my life, I love my jobs, especially my primary job.
Life is quite good at the moment :-)
I am just wondering since MQ ASR rate reduction starts the 1st of October how many have opted out
of ASR and how many are just going to continue to do the ASR. I wonder how much work they will push on ASR now with the rate reduction. Watch the accounts fly on ASR.
Read between the lines. When a company starts saying work more to make more
and you have to work in assembly-line fashion like an automaton, they are having a cash crunch. They held out one salary to you to get you to do the job, then they turn around and cut your pay because you make too much. They don't sound financially stable. If you've only been on the job 2 months, start looking elsewhere for a more financially stable company. Send out your resume and see what other companies have to offer and check out references for those companies. I and a friend in the past have gone part-time with a new company before resigning from the old one in order to make sure the new company is going to be compatible with us. It's hard to do, but it's short-term for only 1 or 2 weeks.
I have a niece studing to be a PA. I told her to call me when she starts dictating sm
I told her to be sure to ENUNCIATE, spell difficult names. I hope that will give us one PA that will be clear. LOL
In North Alabama, school starts back August 4th. We get out the end of May.

I think it's the temporary files because when it starts acting like this, there are TONS of temp
Even closing Word doesn't make the files go away--I have to delete them manually.
As far as plug-ins, I have tried disabling them before but no luck. I can go months without a problem, plug-ins and all, and then, BAM, it starts happening all the time. I usually start holding my breath when I have a string of "crash-less" days (even more than I usually do to hold my gut in).
I'm beginning to think it's those automatic updates from Microsoft that are adding gremlins...can't say that I'm not beyond thinking that Mr. Gates would have his reasons for doing that, although I can't say for sure what they might be right now.
I'm open to any more ideas you might have.
DANSKOS, but when any part of my legs starts hurting, I immediately do several leg stretches
fixes them right away. One thing though, you have to get a pair of really good shoes now - my daughter-in-law got me a pair of Danskos because she wears them (on her feet all day as an ICU nurse) - that was five years ago - they made a tremendous difference and now I wouldn't wear any others. There are other good shoes out there and you DO have to pay for them, but it's worth it.
My problem now is my back up between the shoulder blades - the only thing that helps there is to stop typing and apply heat. Right elbow is usually achy too, but that goes away when I rest it.
Wish I had a hot tub.
Good luck to you.
Your hours will need to change as baby grows and starts to sleep less, too! Naps become too

Express Scribe is very easy. Files download, you will see them, click on one and it starts when you
press your pedal. That simple.
