    what you typed in your post is above this line - with 4 typos in 8 words - you are only 50% in quality...IF THAT.


    And Carol was nice enough to type the answer to you.....not realizing you're probably testing over offshore somewhere.  This is not allowed on this board - we do not supply answers to testers. 


    not the spelling police here - just annoyed that they come in here and use us for the answers.........and this one appears to be an offshore MT just by what all she/he misspelled.......some of the most basic words.

    Subject: OFFSHORE POSTERS: Everyone read SM

    Please be aware that "rhodilla" and "ghie" are offshore posters.  I have banned their addresses (IP and e-mail).  Always watch for "clues" and "signs" -- multiple posts at a single time, etc.  Report suspicious posts.


    I will try to keep watching for suspicious posts.

    Subject: Helping the offshore "MTs" with these basic terms they should know sm

    will only mask how bad this situation is with their appalling ineptitude. (They have their own boards anyway.) We cannot help someone who cannot or will not help her/himself. These "MTs" can spend all their hard-earned money on reference books, take courses and go to lectures the way the rest of us have and can learn this very difficult work the hard way, LIKE WE DID. Hopefully, someday, these greedy MTSOs will see the errors of their ways, and we'll have our jobs back, we'll be able to pay our bills and feed, cloth, and house our families again.

    I've heard a doc order his new loaded Lexus on his cell phone when he laid the phone down while dictating.  Sounded like he was gettin' a pimpin' ride!  I have also heard love making between a doctor and nurse (they were both married to other people).  Ooohh, aahhhh.  It was years ago, but was so funny.  Sorry, just had to share......

    Too funny. I was going to say the same thing.

    The one person that "corrected" everything is gone.  I sent every single piece of garbage that she emailed me with to my supervisor.  Who has time for nonsense?  It was obvious this QA person felt she was "in control" or something because her feedback was ridiculous.


    I haven't been fired either.  Go figure.

    Funny story
    Subject: Funny story

    Actually, that just reminded me of the surgeon who performed my cholecystectomy. The nurse accidently called him by his last name and he refused to acknowledger her until she apologized and called him Dr. X. Since I was the patient, and we were social friends, I completely gave him crap about it. He ended up apologizing to the nurse. lol

    for YEARS and then someone dictating will make you question it.  This PA insists every time that it is A and not E.  I finally had my lead MT call the hospital to tell her that averted eyelids is wrong!  Thanks again.

    I am trying to find out what exactly CHAD (as in the score for predicting stroke risk) stands for-anyone know??


    Funny thing-l was checking Medilexicon for it and it also stands for "Chinese Hamsters with Spontaneous Diabetes" and "Chinese Hamsters of the Asahikawa Colony" although these do not match the letters in the acronym.  My son and I were just laughing it up over this one and wondering if some country funded a study somewhere to study hamsters in China who spontaneously develop Diabetes!
