I learned 27 years ago to use q.4h. (no spaces), past few years q.4 h. (see msg)
Subject: I learned 27 years ago to use q.4h. (no spaces), past few years q.4 h. (see msg)
Now some are saying it's q. 4h.?? UGH, YUCK!! I have also worked on accounts where it had to be "every 4 hours," and we had to spell out p.r.n. (as needed for). At least we got more characters.
First rule: It is all what the "client/account" wants, not always what the BOS says it is. I realize that language and its usage is constantly changing, but I've seen so many BOS and client flip-flops on so many other things in nearly 3 decades that it's laughable. What isn't laughable is when we get penalized for not knowing what they want, even when they, themselves, don't know or are wrong.
Oh, and I still prefer the old no spaces: q.4h., q.4-6h., q.12h., and so on.....
Wow, thank you. Just years, years and more years of experience

and a constant thirst for learning something new everyday. As we all know this can get to be somewhat boring, but learning from what I transcribe as well as from other transcriptionists keeps me going (money is not bad either). It becomes a challenge. But I can't thank you enough for the kind words.
Use to be younger...
SHE'S BEEN AN MT FOR ONLY 6 MONTHS!! SM
Subject: SHE'S BEEN AN MT FOR ONLY 6 MONTHS!! SM
I think you're jealous because she is getting help. She did the actual transcription herself. I didn't listen to it. If you had read my posts, and obviously you did not, I referred her to some references that would help her. I prefer books rather than links for many, many reasons.
As far as breaches in confidentiality, I don't know who NewbieMT is, where she lives, even if she is a "she," or where her account is. There is no telling by the document she presented for help. She was careful to not even leave dates of admission or discharge. Her report was presented such that it was totally untraceable, unrecognizable as far as identifying an individual, and completely generic. I give her a lot of credit for that. She has a lot of sense.
BTW, your posts are atrocious in grammar, punctuation and syntax. Tacky, tacky Stapler. I think you should focus on your own back yard.
What her QA is or is not doing is none of your business, nor mine. You didn't read older posts, and are just speaking out of an orifice. Newbie asked for help, and she got it. I don't bother with (so-called) MTs who don't give a flying you-know-what. I don't even answer their posts when it's something they could easily look up. See for yourself. I wouldn't waste my precious free time on someone who didn't care, who was out only for the money. This gal is good, and deserves a hand under the elbow THAT WE ALL HAD WHEN WE WERE LEARNING. Have you forgotten, or did you malign the people who tried to help you when you were learning?
You're not going to win this argument, so back off. If this newbie, or any other newbie (or even a not-so-newbie) wants my help, they're going to get it.
BTW, You ARE flaming. I've read some of your posts on other boards, and you are trouble. Leave this newbie alone. She's doing great and obviously is working hard.
