No matter what i ever tried, the footpedal with a Cphone is just awful....I wonder why companies still use this antiquated hot mess.

YUCK WAS MOLSESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED. NOW SHE'S ACTING OUT.

I agree. I like it nice and cool. My pocketbook likes it a little warmer. :-)

yuck...
I eat red meat, pork but mostly chicken.

If you don't want to red meat, that's cool. But, word of warning to you - many begetarians think they are eating heathfully because they cut out meat, but in fact, vegans often have high cholesterol counts because they eat so many dairy foods. They also often fry foods - you would be better off eating an 8 oz steak than eating a couple of batter dripped deep fried cheese stick.

Please watch the fat content of your food.

Good health to you!
Yuck/LOL..... what??
Was that one liner in response to my post Yuck????  What???? are you tongue tied Yucky yuck upchuck?????  I didnt ask about your overweight issues Yuck.. .. Sorry that you have them.   Try weight watchers.  I have heard they help.  But Yuck.... who will help you get a personality???? GEEZ  whatever will the Yuckster do????  
Come on now Yuck...

Let it all out Yuck/LOL.  I know you have been showing multiple personalities on here.... but we see through that and we hear your pain Yuckie duckie.  Dont worry, your husband just probably couldnt stand it anymore.... I mean, we've only known you a few short hours and already can't stand you.... So, it's okay.  Some people are only human....  Yuckiity doooo.  I know you can't comprehend that either, but just nod your big head and pretend.... you're good at that.  Now, Yuck, lets talk about the pimples, the flour that you've been rolled in, your need to insult others and chalk it up to having fun..... when did this all start????   How is the bed wetting??  Is it still as frequent???


Yuck
Yuck - go play in traffic!

Well, there ya go person posting as Yuck.  I got on this forum tonight to check out a company.  When I read the posts on here from you about the administrator of this board and all your other posts in response to other people, I was really taken aback.  Many MTs have posted in response to you, asking you nicely/professionally/maturally to please stop.  You are insulting, demeaning, critical, nasty, rude and very hurtful in your posts.  I was/am outraged and amazed at the things you have said on here.  All my posts to you are what you have put out there to us.  Kind of funny how when someone starts saying nasty (and I didnt even call you any vulgar names like you did) things back to you, being critical and hurtful back to you, you all of a sudden do not have a lot to say.  It doesnt feel real good does it?  What you do in fun can actually be very damaging to someone else.  I am glad that you seem taken aback by my posts to you.  That was the point.  I wish that you would stop and really think about what your words may mean to someone else.  That someone else is a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister.  Have you any of those?  How would you like it if any of your family was treated the way you have treated us tonight?  Especially the admin of this board.  How awful of you to talk that way about this person.  This forum is here as a courtesy to us.  Why are you abusing it?
Yuck....
I work every single weekend for the next year.  That is my companies policy for newbies...... boo!
yuck!
I hope you get your old one back...or another good new one!
Yuck
Why do I have to listen to this doc sucking up his snots through his nose while he is dictating? Can't he just take a break and blow his nose. It's making me sick to my stomach.
Yuck...
This was my experience a few years ago...Overall, the people were nice but I encountered my first and only QA Nazi there. Right off the bat, she introduced herself as having 30+ years of experience (compared to 14+) for me. That should have been my first red flag because who throws that into their introduction. I certainly did not state my years of experience as part of my introduction. Anyhow, I just chose to ignore it and give it all I had. All of the other QA were so nice and then I got HER.... It was, "you missed a tense" as in past tense such as a discharge summary in which most of it was dictated with past tense i.e. was, did etc. Well, excuse me, I missed one because I just get in the habit sometimes of typing what the physician states instead of correcting everything they say. I felt totally nitpicked and the final straw was when she told me that it was wasting their money having me because I was having to be on QA. EXCUSE ME.. what is QA supposed to be doing but QA-ing the new people. Never in my life has anyone told me that I was wasting their time and money. I was insulted. No, I am not perfect but I also was NOT a newbie and did not feel like I was looking to them for guidance on how to do transcription. So, that being said, I'd have to give them a thumbs down. It's a shame because the manager and the other QA people were quite nice but she had obviously been in the business too long, old and burned out, which ruins it for everyone else.
C-phones
Are C-phones worth the trouble and expense of getting one? I work for a small company and now the docs want to go back to them! I thought they were rather obsolete. Also, what kind of cost is involved in unlimited long distance plus do you have to have a separate phone line for these?
C-phones
Aren't C-phones a little outdated or it is just my imagination? I was working on a contingent basis for a wonderful small company but now the owner says the docs like the C-phone better and have switched from that after using the voice-activated equipment for awhile. I enjoyed the work but not the expense of purchasing outdated equipment that I doubt I would use anywhere else. So for now, I have virtually NO work
c phones
I have been searching for a job again and I see one that needs me to have one. Don't know anything at all about them. What are they and what do they do? thanks!
ear phones
Got them at Radio Shack.  I got the less expensive ones, and am sorry I didn't get the fancier, more expensive ones.  I think they would be worth it.  Will be getting some better ones later.
ear phones
I have no idea, honestly. I just don't like wearing a "leash," as well. Also, the ones MQ sent are about 10 feet long.

I know when I see teenagers blasting their music directly into their ears, it not only aggravates me because I can hear it, but it makes me think they'll probably become deaf or hard-of-hearing at an early age.
Ear phones
I also have C-phone and hate the chinset ear phones.  They dig into my ears, and give me a headache.  I got on ebay and searched on C-phone.  I ran across a pair of ear buds (like an MP3 player has) that are 2-prong, and only for the Dictaphone system.  Very excited to get them!

where to get ear phones
ear phones
Just ordered a pair from the company I work for today, but if the company does not provide them, I have, in the past ordered on line from Lanier. They have a website. Another possibility someone just brought to my attention is Radio Shack. Also Dictaphone makes them, which I have ordered also in the past. They have a website,
C-phones
A C-phone is a telephone with a foot pedal where you pick up your dictation. You dial into a number given by your employer/hospital. Used C-phones can run 100-150.00, and new ones are around 700.00-900.00. Try EBay, as I believe they have them under medical transcription. I have used one for years and really like it. Quality of the dictation is usually perfect.
What ear phones do you use?

I noticed a huge difference in my ability to hear when I switched from regular "transcription" ear phones to a really good quality Bose stereo headphone.  It was a $$ investment, to be sure, but I figured it was worth it since it's tax deductible and I hear more without having to leave as many blanks.


Good luck.  Hope you find a solution that works for you.


c-phones
Don't know about being the same, but I have one for sale if you are interested.
Yuck, I don't eat red meat, but (sm)

do eat some chicken for more protein.  Also eat lots of fruit with cottage cheese and lots of green, leafy vegetables.  Also, a way to get more protein is nuts, like cashews or almonds and feta cheese with your salads.


For lunch today is pasta with some cheese biscuits with garlic salt, also a green salad with feta cheese.  Melons with cottage cheese for a snack.  No meat at all and I don't miss it!  You get used to it.


Come on Yuckie Yuck
Dont you have any new, original material?  Your insults are old and boring.  Old, fat, pimply, blah blah.  We've heard it all from you already.  Why don't you take a break and sleep on it.  Maybe in the morning you'll have a better come back.  Maybe you'll wake up and finally find an excuse for yourself, or you can pretend that you actually have a reason to be breathing the air that you breath.  or maybe you can pretend that your are NOT really just a waste of space, a stain on the floor.  A Loooohoooooser.  Come on cheesyball, you're having fun here, right?????  So, whatcha got????
YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED
YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED, NOW SHE'S ACTING OUT.
YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED
, YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED AND NOW SHE'S ACTING OUT.
If that is Yuck's club no thanks
her idea of cool is sitting and popping her pimples all day and then having her husband pop the ones on her fat butt all night.  That is why he left ya know.   Well, one of the reasons anyway. 
I found YUCK...
You know, posting as LOL doesnt fool us Yuck.  We know you are one in the same.  I think it is a Sybil complex.  Listen, I know you have many personalities, but try to keep them all on the same page so that you make sense, okay?  By the way, does daddy like Yuck or LOL better?
Family. Yuck!
I just don't work with friends or family. Period!
I saw that on TV, too, last night. Yuck! nm

You can look it up on McDonalds on the web. YUCK

Not only do they taste awful (I tried a bite once - yuck), they have 560 calories, 21 grams of fat, etc., etc., but what people don't even look at is the SODIUM!


Sodium in these bad boys is 1260!!!


And people EAT this junk?


reply to yuck
Hey, they are always going to be out there. You live and learn just like we all did.
People actually advertise with "no experience necessary" you too can be an MT!
Oh yuck, I hate that, too.
a
doctors.. yuck
Every problem that MTs and MTSOs have is because the CEOs and underlings are so terribly scared to say anything to the doctors... they are SAINTS you know... NOT !!!!! It totally disgusts me... only good thingfor us is that the medical field is where the money is today and we need our jobs so we put up with the bullsh-t.
phones through router
I have Vonage (see above) and I have a C-phone connected to my phone line on the Vonage router box, but I still have regular phone lines connecting my home phone, so basically 2 different phone numbers, 2 different services.
Head phones
I have never used noise reduction head phones, but the best head phones I have ever used are the ones that came with the Olympus 4000 transcription system.  You can buy the head phones separately.  I think they are about $50.  This is a lot, but versus the others I have bought in the past (around $25) there is simply no comparison.  I also use them to listen to music on my computer.  They are great!  I have a Soundblaster card on one computer, but even on my other computer the sound is much better than with regular head phones. 
Wav files vs. C-Phones
Think I'd better get a laptap in the future! Sitting outside typing sounds wonderful but since I am only doing this on a contingent basis, guess I'll stick with my big old computer. Thanks for your input!
interpreter phones in the ER
How does that work in the ER when they need an interpreter for a patient?  I'm thinking there are on-call interpreters (or translators) for specific languages but I'm curious if anyone knows anything about this. 
cell phones
I was just at the hospital Friday evening attending a death, and one of the family members said, "Oh, we can't use the cell phones," and a nurse said, "Sure you can. It's okay." Things have changed. There may be some places in a hospital where they are still not allowed, but they are becoming accepted in more and more parts of the hospitals.
Cell phones
The candidates running in our state (LA) are calling cell phones. It was on the news a little bit ago that the phone numbers are the ones that were wrote on the voter registration and if you don't want the calls, to write the voter registrar.
You might need a better set of phones and/or speakers, too. nm
s
cell phones
It seems to mean i read it was against the HIPAA (?) for doctors to dictate on cell phones. I've heard stories, though, of many doctors who do. What about dictating from home--are they taking medical records at home to do this. Seems like that is a violation, too. But who is going to say anything to doctors about diddly squat stuff like rules or slowing down a little so we can understand what the heck you are saying?
WISH THEY'D PUT THEIR CELL PHONES...sm
on ice while dictating, or I have a few suggestions where to keep it.  My nerves aren't frazzled enough with this industry, now we have these clowns keep their cell phones ON while dictating.  This morning I had to sit through dictation from one of the worst, and he knows it, all the while having his shrill, loud cell phone ringing in my ear.  I know they have to stay available as physicians, but what's wrong with voice mail, text messaging, until he/she is able to take the call in an appropriate, courteous manner.  No, they have to let it keep ringing.  My ears are still buzzing.
Yuck! I am used to the 90s here but over 95 gets a bit too toasty--keep as cool as you can! - nm

That was pretty LAMO again Yuck
That's the best you can do????  WOW, I am so skinnyfully flattened and pimple-less YUCKSTER.  Come on now, you were having fun remember????  You got on here and started calling our admin of this forum all kinds of nasty things and saying all kinds of vulgar things, not to mention a few bad words.... and it was FUN remember?????   Yuckie duckie need to pluckie????   Come on now,  just go pluck your unibrow and get to the dentist for the overbite and things will work out Yuck/LOL.  If you do that, you won't look like a cavegirl anymore and maybe the girl next door wont look so sexy to your husband.  Oh, also most guys like it if you shave under your arms Yuck.  Sorry mamma never told you that, but its time you knew. 
YUCK'S MOTHER ATE THE DIARRHEA?...nm

nm


The bad thing about YUCK being molested
is that her mother knew all along. Her mother didn't want to be bothered with her dad so she encouraged YUCK's daddy to go pop that young cherry. talk about cherry pickin'. He picked and popped hers every time.
Question about snakes .. yuck!
I know that this is the time of year the babies are born, but I want to know how to get them out of the flowering bushes in my back yard.  This merry widow stuff is for the birds!!  If someone has a remedy that does not have me putting my hands where he/she is .. I am all for it.  Yesterday as I looked out the window he/she was looking back in at me .. gag!!
Just searched and yuck is right! How digusting. nm

Elavil hahaha YUCK

for the first few days went to work in a very good mood, almost tipsy!! 


   


Surprisingly, I did not care for that feeling!


I had to take it in the morning or else I could not fall asleep!! I have ADD so that might account for the reason I need to take all meds similar to Elavil in the morning.
