getting paid is showing appreciation for my work. that's all i care about.
who cares if some supervisor "appreciates" me? i'm in it for the money not for someone to "appreciate" me.
Agranny, if there are no editors, who's firing the ones who don't know their stuff? nm

Yeah, yeah, that should be "your work..."
It isn't about showing MTs the money, it's about showing

Yeah.. I work TOO much. I know I could work less if I could just sit there and focus..
I know how you mean in NH.. and we'll leave it at that.. You mean you actually take vacation when your on vacation LOL..I also am going on vacation in July (Disneyland..yippee) but will be taking along the computer to work while I am on vacation..pretty sad.. but I cant afford just to not work. For me, I just need to refocus. When I do focus, I average $30 an hour, I just find it's hard to sit there 8 hours, but it's worse when I realized I could be done in 8 for what I drag out to 12..It's my goal...to work my 8 hours and stop for the day. 
Yeah! Who do you work for!?!?! :)

Yeah, and if you work for a hospital and say
x
Yeah, I'd prefer US work for sure, just not sure if its possible. NM
Yeah, work for $5/ hr and keep your mouth
?
Yeah, but does your company allow you to come in and work whenever you want?
I would love to work for a company that offers employee status, offers benefits, and will allow me to work whenever I please, just coming and going whenever suits me. The only companies I know that hire employees require a set schedule and require you to be at your desk working during your shift. This is why I am still an IC without benefits. I cannot commit to the same schedule every day.
Yeah, but medical personnel who actually work directly with
patients are a bit "different" like that. They think nothing of taking a look or having a touch here and there. And the morbid senses of humor many of them have. My friends from high school are both RNs now, but they're like that.
Yeah a 30 minute test---work for free, he gets enough to test, his work is done - nm

Yeah, could you imagine if we made a work at home commercial
that was truthful? Instead of the serenely peaceful scene with the children playing quietly at your feet while you made $50,000 a year, there would be toys flying everywhere, kids jumping on the furniture, the dog yacking on the carpet, neighbors banging on the door, the phone ringing off the hook, laundy piled up to the ceiling, and a husband whining about something or another.
Unfortunately showing my age here, but
Yul Brynner was always the greatest to me!! Just wish he was still alive!!! What a sexy man!!!!!
showing my age
I was only 7 when it came out (just checked), so it's just now becoming a classic for me (he, he, he).
And I'm really glad it wasn't meant to be mean.
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.
What? How in the world can you say that? I AM showing
compassion. Yes, I'm a mother. I can't pat her on the back and try to settle her. She seemed upset. I was trying to soothe her irritation, literally.
I think you have taken me wrong. I'm very tender with my babies and I thought I was coming across that way to the post above as well.
Gee, I'm sorry if she took that wrong.
I think I did not speak clearly about the just showing up MTs
If a company hires only ICs, then they cannot expect them to work except for the times they want.
Typing less than 100 lines a day is not pocketchange because of the pay.
I don't want to worry about the IRS showing
up on my doorstep, so I have my taxes done by H&R Block. No guarantee that you still won't have problems with IRS, but it makes me feel better. I don't claim my house/utilities. I don't claim nickel and dime stuff either.
When my mother died exactly a week later I get a letter from the IRS stating she owed $25,000.00 - no explanation. I was freaking, not only was I grieving but having to worry about this. I wrote a very nice letter, sent them a copy of her death certificate, and said I thought the issue was a roll-over of an IRA. My mom didn't have much money and I knew that she had rolled over one so I was just guessing. They sent me a letter a couple of weeks later saying the situation had been resolved and no monies due. I don't know what the problem was, but 5 years later I still have that letter.
Absolutely! They are showing this whole
last season all summer long. Every Tuesday night...two episodes back to back.
Your young age is showing!
I remember the dictabelt, we had to mark it with chalk to know where to start it up. Talk about archaic! The times they are a'changin! (and for this part - the better!)
Minnie, you are showing your
ignorance. You must get off on bashing people? Are you that miserable of a person? I think it is safe to assume that you don't have much of a life, probably because no one can stand being around someone so negative. Grow up!!
Sorry, then, was showing my ignorance! :) nm

The memory showing says up to on
all of them, which means that is the maximum you can have, but you customize. You can pick the cheapest one, but by the time you customize it, it can be $200 to $300 more. I looked at them all and the processor speed is not that fast. Depending on what programs you use it may be too slow. I would get one with a faster processor speed. You may also want to get a laptop with XP instead of Vista since there are still so many bugs with it.
showing my ignorance
I did not know there were services like that, how do you contact them, what are they called?
and ridiculing someone instead of showing--sm
compassion towards any given person or situation is NOT making them a victim?
LOL..showing your age honey
I absolutely loved your post and agreed a gazillion percent; however, you ARE showing your age here....LOL... with Dr. Marcus Welby and Dr. Kildare... you forgo ZORBA too!!! LOL. Oh......the good ol days of good programs to watch......
They have been showing a great documentary on it on HBO lately--
really is good, depressing and upsetting of course, but gives a lot of insight I think.
Go RadGuy, your testosterone is showing NM
.
and your lack of expectations for yourself is showing.

LOVE that response about showing
up naked because you can't afford clothes! ROTFL. Seriously, though, you should not have to put up with that, but then office politics are undeniably tough and all the troublemakers stick together so it can be difficult if you are the only one with 'the problem." Bose headphones are the best but very pricey but maybe you can find some on EBay...Good luck!
Poor thing, your negativity is showing

I agree. Unless you are showing a possessive form for
There are different situations to consider.
Plural forms:
Call all of your MTs and have them respond.
Possessive forms:
Make sure the MT's phone number is correct.
We have these 2 choices because there are 2 characters in this acronym.
When there is only 1 character (alpha or numeric), there is always an apostrophe, regardless.
Single characters:
The patient counted using serial 8's.
Please dot all I's and cross all T's appropriately.
Multiple characters:
In the 1980s, the bill was enacted.
Blood sugar was in the 300s on return of labs.

At my company, as soon as they start showing improvement, they are gone and we get a new batch.

WHAT race card did she pull? Ever? And are you just being delusional and showing who and how YOU r
x
I knew what she meant, thanks. I was just showing a funny, or at least I thought it was. Sorry to
 It was the "rumatyca" that got me laughing.
Pardon me, but your ignorance and obvious lack of class are showing.

No reason to feel good about it. Just showing that kids are going to get into trouble
So let them learn how to function in society rather than hide them from it.
She had an ectopic pregnancy. They were showing everything that happened in the past. Next week it
My Norton antivirus is showing a red X on my email and I have no idea what happened. How do I fix
that.
Some people like to keep a Time Clock thing showing on their monitors, too. But

Monster search of diff. jobs showing range

3. CT scan showing an odontoid fracture at the base and also fracture of the posterior ALMA at C1-C2
Yeah, baby, yeah.
We are here for the long haul.
You have your W2 showing very clearly those taxes were paid. MQ is responsible for those taxes
because you were a statutory employee. That is the responsibility of the employer to pay those just as though you were an employee.
I get my work from an FTP site that they load the work to, however I don't have pool work so to
speak, but I tell them how many minutes a day I want. The work is generally put in my box by 5 pm every day, then I have until 10 am the following day for some priority work, or 3:30 pm for the rest, so TAT is not too bad. I would like to work less at night though, but I working on that. My downside is I do not get the same dictators day to day, there are a few I do on a semi-regular basis though, some generate great lines but take longer to do that other doc's and are not "money-makers", I also do not get paid for spaces so that hurts a bit too. This is WP5.1 too.....so very antiquated but that is what the hospital uses, so not much choice there. But I understand what you mean about the C-phone. I was just doing another job with C-phone recently...they incidentally did not tell me how to get off of the system, which was very simple. I'd finish a job, then hit stop and hangup if I wanted to get off or quit working. That is what you need to do if you want to sleep, eat, etc. Don't feel guilty, do what you signed up for, believe me they watch the pools and will get others to do the work you don't finish. If they get on your case remind them that you are only PT and only want 500 lines a day, etc. It's not worth killing yourself over. Good Luck. 
Oh, yeah!
I understand where you're coming from. The respect is just not there anymore. Everyone in this business has heard for years about how voice recognition and EMRs are going to replace us all, which I just don't buy. I work for a national on a difficult account with many ESLs, and it generates lots of work. Every summer we have problems keeping up with turnaround but the management has yet to come up with a solution that actually works consistently. I suspect it's a combination of MTs having kids home from school during the day now, vacations being taken, and people not working their schedules, but most of all I think it's just plain burnout - we deserve to enjoy the summer too. Last summer I worked so much to the point that I think I did substantial damage, and my body just cannot take it anymore (been at it for about 20 years, the last 10 years of it steady). The powers that be fail to understand that we are not machines! 
Oh yeah
Or when you are trying to sleep and in your mind you are dictating to yourself..i.e., and the patient..yada, yada, yada, happens to me all the time, especially if I have had a long stressful-difficult dictation day, LOL..Of even if Im day dreaming, sometimes I find myself falling into dictation mode, repeating dictating I have transcribed, or close to it..Yeow!!
Yeah.
intromission changed to interim admission. LOL
yeah right.
dream on.
