you shouldn't call her period. if your DH was hiding anything, he would not have even mentioned

In Reply to: I am FURIOUS and need advice...pronto - totally not MT related...sm
and i bet now that you blow up about it, he won't tell you again. he should merely tell his friend that he doesn't want involved and tell her not to call his cell anymore, better yet if she calls again, your DH should tell her so himself.

Actually, chosing "cap after period" will not force a period in the instances I mentioned. --
Even with it checked, it WILL NOT cap after a number with a period in it. Like "white count 14.1. hemoglobin 10.9.
If you know of a way that it WILL, let us all know. I have never had a version of Word that will work that way. Always puts in the lower case, even though there is a period there.
And I suppose we shouldn't call murders such, huh? Or ...
sex offenders pedophiles...or adulterers cheaters...OH MY! We might be UGLY when we do it!
Go on now, and crawl back into your little fantasy world of how nice everyone should be. LOL GEeeeezzzzz.
Maybe you shouldn't be so quick to call somebody names before YOU

I probably read about it on MSN or someone mentioned it to me. Maybe call local college or JUCO
?
Late period, test negative, 1 week later my period arrived.
To be honest, when I did become pregnant, I knew it right away. Sounds weird, but I just knew and it showed up on HCG test at 4 weeks.
Sometimes, you just know! Good luck whatever results you have.
or a lot of damaged people, hiding.
Here's the missing S from that sentence
(nm)
I'm not hiding. I'm right here. At the very least, I sign all my posts...
with my virtual name - Tinks. As far as I can tell, you hiding behind the anonymity of this board. No name - real or otherwise - follows your posts.
I've had that happen but it was just hiding.
It wasn't saved under .doc it was saved under .rtf
Very annoying and caused much grief, let me tell you.
She obviously told someone who warned her of the violation and now she is hiding....
dd
and you can bet 99% of these guys are married, fat, bald freaks hiding from their wives
while pretending to be rich, attractive, and SINGLE
"period, period, period..."
Yes I've transcribed for an MD who said this constantly while he was trying to think of what he would dicate next. I also had one who would say "ahhhhhhhhhh....." for what seemed like an eternity!! So annoying isn't it!
MedQuist? Ctrl+shift+F, period, space, tab, period, space, space, change all. nm
.
got the "phone call" -- get this, MQ has hired a bunch of telemarketers to call all of us to
we received our "incentive packet." They don't even have the wherewithall to contact us personally. These are temp-agency hired telemarketers sitting around a boiler room making sure we're reading our mail.... told him it don't pertain to me because I've been demoted from FT to SE.... He said, "yes, the letter is vague, but it does pertain to FT as well as SE...." yeah right, we'll see.
*70 will disable call waiting unless you are expecting a call and want it on (nm)

On-call requires on-call compensation by law
This field gets more disgustingly grotesque daily.
Then you shouldn't ben an SE or an IC. We all....
have to make the choices and or sacrifices that provide us with what we need. You may need to find a job that provides benefits, as opposed to living on the edge regarding medical care. If that means you work a rigid schedule because you're an employee, giving up the flexibility of being an IC may be necessary. I did the same thing myself. Canadian health care stinks.
They shouldn't be able to do that.
We used to rent and went through that. I've worked as a housekeeper before, so I'm anal about cleaning. Security deposits are for damages only, usually not for routine cleaning. We had landlords try to charge us for many reasons, but there are Landlord/Tenant laws in each state. In my state, the landlord has to notify us that the unit is not clean enough and give us time to clean it up before they can withhold from the security deposit. If they don't notify you, your deposit is fully due to you. They also have to give you an itemized list of specific charges, not just general cleaning. I always took pictures before and after, too, just to prove that we left everywhere clean.
We had one altercation with a landlord in a basement apartment we lived in. The foundation was cracked and leaking, and the ancient threadbare 1950s carpet got stained with water, moldy, and mildewy, so we tore it out and replaced it with remnants. He tried to charge me for recarpeting the entire basement apartment. I took pictures, though, and threatened him with a lawsuit of my own for providing substandard living quarters, failing to make repairs, and withholding my security deposit. He tried to bully me by telling me that he had never lost a case, so I turned him in to the county.
Go to Google and type in your state name with "Landlord Tenant laws" and "security deposit" to see what it says. Then call an attorney for a free consultation. Send a demand letter for the funds owed to you.
Maybe I shouldn't say this but
Uninstall it and reinstall again, see what happens.
shouldn't have said it was better lol
I keep getting all lines are busy please try again later or We are sorry all circuits are busy now please hang up and try again 312506.
And I thought monday was over,,,,,,my bad!!!
Shouldn't we use ml instead of cc?
nm
He shouldn't try to think.

No, you shouldn't do that. sm
I have always read NO, do not run 2 antivirus programs at once. I run Spybot and Ad-Aware along with my main antivirus (I use Avast), but you should not run 2 main antivirus (such as Avast or AVG) programs together. I don't know what PC Tools does so I don't know specifically if that is okay to run with AVG, but I would advise checking with AVG before you do anything.
I find that using something like AVG and running periodic Spybot Search & Destroy and Ad-Aware scans, plus using the immunize tool in Spybot, works well and keeps my PC free of pests (along with firewall, of course).
Just my opinion, but a lot of the "do-it-all" programs end up slowing down your computer with extra features you may not even need or want. Half the stuff they bundle isn't even necessary since many browers and ISPs bundle the same functions in their software. Therefore, you might be wasting memory resources on something you already have adequate protection for with your browser/ISP. You can compare it to medicine designed for cough, congestion, and allergy - if you only have the cough, you really don't need the congestion and allergy medicines so why buy the multi-formula med and subject your body to it unnecessarily when you could just get the cough med and be well?
shouldn't have to
you can program any key to anything you like.
and shouldn't that be...
MIIIIIIINE?
Hehehe. I'm in a mood today.
you mentioned everything you could
think of except the pay. How IS the pay???
I should have mentioned...
I get paid by the report! ARGH!!!! Its weird how most MT's get paid by the line and hence love long reports while those of us paid by report LOVE short reports! We have this one new doc who never says more than a sentence or two at the most unless its a CT or MRI, in which case he says four or five sentences....love it!
Actually, as mentioned below
I have worked for MQ, twice! Before and after DQS. As I said, it's up to whomever as to how they want to count lines (divisor, footers, headers, numbers, spaces, symbols, etc). It is not DQS - It is DocQmanage, which runs DQS!
Did you see SE or IC mentioned
I didn't.
So if they don't address me I don't pay attention.
And all they addressed in that letter was Full time and Part time employees.
Looks like somebody else mentioned this above. sm
I keep an eye on it when I transcribe since I've changed it in my expander, but haven't yet run into the cc in combination with prostate, but I'm sure it'll happen.
I don't think anybody mentioned
Harrison Ford -- I love his movies. One of my favorites is Regarding Henry.
It had nothing to do with what you mentioned
and I will NOT post it, it's just too nasty.
to add to what the others have mentioned ... sm
If you charge a gross line, you might consider how many characters/spaces possible you wish your gross line to be made up of. For instance, if your font is New Times Roman 12, your possible characters per line will be less than if it were New Times Roman 10. And if your margins are 1 inch, that's a whole heck of a lot of typing to make up a line in New Times Roman 12. My gross lines are made up of a *possible* 65 spaces/characters per gross line, no matter what font/size they see. If you go this route, gross line and calculate this way, make sure your clients understand how you are charging so you don't have any conflicts.
No I just mentioned RP because
there was a dramatic difference. It made me wonder if there was something better than ES to play dictation with.
yes...but I should have mentioned...
That I do primarily VR. I just bought an ergonomic keyboard (MIcrosoft) and while I think I would get used to it at some point, I'm not sure it's the best choice for someone who does 95% VR. So actually I need thoughts on this as I am pretty much hating this new design and am working on my old one.
You can say that again. Sorry I mentioned it.
:
Ok, I should have mentioned.....
it would be working for the SAME company, not two jobs, just my one job, but working here in my own state most of the time and then for 2 weeks every few months or so in another state. I know it wouldn't be my employer's business if I were to get another job at the different company.
I was wondering if I had to let my employer know that I would be working from a different state now and again.
You also mentioned that
you are new to the game, so I thought I might recommend some good quality headset earphones. I found them yesterday and fell in love with them immediately. I've had a lot of earphones trying to find just the right fit. Nike Vapor adjustable sport headphones. might check with www.philips.com They have 3-way adjustments and the sound quality is magnificent! Can you tell I am sick of bad quality earphones? :)
have a good experience instead of bad. Its a long haul if you choose this as a career and you have to take care of yourself.
I don't know if this has already been mentioned here, but
on the other job board, there was a job listed that wanted 10 years experience!!! Good luck with that one...
Have you mentioned to them...
that you would like to visit them more often but it will require them having internet service? Being the type of work that we do, you have the option to travel anywhere and still work as long as you have a pc/internet service...just as you explained it to us, have you explained it to them in that fashion? How much will it cost for you to get internet service? A friend of mines visited me and she had a lap top with an air card and. she told me that if someone near you has a satelite that you could tap into (not stealing) but somehow you would be able to tap into their service provider and get internet service. Speak to someone about how the air card works?
Like you mentioned, there are many
variables. I was told by the person who trained me that average is about 3-4 times the length of the dictation. Usually, clinic work is pretty easy, and with the same docs all the time, etc., it could very well take less time. Of course, with poor sound quality or difficult dictators, etc., it could take longer.
What I wanted to do but never did (and probably shouldn't)
I always wanted to tape record about 20 minutes of the yapping and then play it back right outside when the neighbor had a window open, preferably in the middle of the night!
I probably shouldn't bite, but (sm)
Almost $30,000 (including July SE bonus).
Medquist.
Shift differential.
Incentive bonus (over 17,000 lines/pp) met 50% of pay periods.
Quarterly bonus for SEs (at least $500 per quarter).
Work 40 hours per week, sometimes more if I work an occasional weekend.
Two kids at home, over 17, but neither drive (boo me).
No husband or boyfriend.
I have as much of a life as I want.
shouldn't you ask your employer
Shouldn't an employer pay
Not doing that is what has made the world go upside down right now.
If I am paid 7/cents a line and my cost of living is based on 12/cents a line plus
benefits, it's almost impossible to keep working for that company who is paying
7/cents a line.
It's pretty simple.
America still demands that we live an "American life style - no sh^t in the rivers, building codes, codes on how many people can live in a dwelling, high insurance rates, etc etc"
well, paying all that and making what a company is paying a peoples who don/'t have those demands is insane.
It's a simple question to our leaders?
Do you want us to live like the third world country? or do you want to give us ability to make salaries to pay for the LIFE STYLE America is demanding we do.
Frankly I'm sick and tired of paying for free loaders of any color. When I saw Laurie Duh (don't know how to spell her name) on Fox yesterday report that one of the homeless from New Orleans........went out and bought a LOUIS VUITTON PURSE
with the $2000 she got..........I STARTED SCREAMING and if I could have gotten my hands around the neck of the idiot who thought it was a good idea to give these people the money in the first place I would have strangled him.........and then I would have done the same to the woman who bought the purse.
I'm sitting here in pain from a bad tooth and no insurance.........and she bought a purse.........LOUIS VUITTON.
p.s. Billfolds in Louis Vuitton start at around $600 and the purses are around $1500 to $5,000.
You shouldn't be surprised
Anybody can get a husband. You are a perfect example of that. I'm not going to settle for just anybody like you did. Just in case you couldn't tell, I have standards.
You shouldn't be ashamed..
So what if it's not the South of France. As long as you had a good time and enjoyed yourself, that's what it's all about!
I have done a lot of traveling, and I can tell you the best vacation that goes down in my memory book is going to Sanibel Island, Florida - surf fishing, catching fish - swimming in the ocean - and kicking back wtih my honey with a Mai Tai. We sent out to dinner at lot at some really nice restaurants there, but the best was steaks on the grill the resort had available there and a great bottle of vino.
I hope you get to Myrtle Beach again and enjoy yourself.
(High Five To Ya')
But they shouldn't be able to make a law on it.
I find it ridiculous! This is just my opinion though, and not going against any of the others.
Unless they are going to make a law that is has to affordable for people that is!
Shouldn't matter.....sm
Your macro will open the original template each time. If you need changes to it, make the changes and save it as a different template and link your macro to it. I'm not a macro expert, but I've made a few and it really isn't hard. There's info in Word's help files.
You really shouldn't assume anything
about people you don't know. I am not overweight at all. I eat well and exercise regularly, but I don't condemn other people for eating what they like. It's very rude of you to call me overweight. You don't even know me.
Hey, I never said that an MT shouldn't send anything to QA at all. SM
I am a big believer in QA being utilized as one of the many resources available to MTs to help them do their jobs, but QA should be the LAST resource after exhausting all other resources.
