long earphone wire getting caught in chair wheels. - steady eddie


Posted: Sep 01, 2010

Does this aggravate anyone else?   I tried gathering the slack and tieing it but then the shorter line is aggravating, too.   

Just wanted to vent. 

 

 

A suggestion - sm - melmt

Take all the slack and wrap it around and around yourself in your chair - twirl around - pull good and tight - so you can't get up and you won't miss any jobs !! :)

I have the same problem. I hate my cord. It bugs me when it lays on my arm, and it bugs me when it lays across my lap. I've tried wrapping it up, but then its too heavy and pulls at my headphones. I so sympathize....

My solution - transgal

I got the little adhesive-backed 3-M hooks (intended for car keys, and such, I'm sure) and attached one on each side of my monitor (One for my USB headphones, one for my Lanier). I can wind any excess around the hook and also can hook the headphones to them when I'm not using them. (If it's a really bad day, I guess we could get the heavy-duty hooks, wind around and around in the chair and then hang from the ceiling!) Hope this helps!

Luckily all of my work is on the computer, so I have Sony Wireless Headphones and they are wonderful. Have had the same pair for 3 years. No interference from anything else, and I have wireless phones, computers, doorbell, well you get the picture. LOVE EM.

What model? - NCMT - nm

Cardiac Cath - Support Wire Or Sport Wire?
Jun 22, 2013

In a cath report, is it support wire or sport wire?  With Google, it seems like it should be support wire, but it sure sounds like he (ESL) says sport wire. JR4 guiding catheter with side hole was used to selectively engage the right coronary artery.  Short sport wire was advanced all the way to the distal vessel.  After that, we placed 2.75 x 30-mm Resolute drug-eluting stent We used a 3.75 EBU guiding catheter selectively engaged left main and the same sport wire was advanced ...

I Caught My Company's Spyware In The Act.
Jul 24, 2012

I'm not going to identify the company (let's face it - they ALL have spyware these days) or how I did it, because I don't want to be identified.  This is a company that requires you to have an instant message feature turned on the entire time you're working.  I turn it off when I'm off the clock.  HOWEVER, the other day, when I was not logged in to work, I was doing some shopping online.  When I was finished comparing items, and decided to close the ...

Caught Flak Here For Excessive Charge By Vascular Surgeon
Oct 08, 2013

Back in September went to a vascular surgeon who saw me for a few minutes, said had no clue why my legs tired, hurting at night and proceeded to charge my insurance $325.00. I thought excessive being as nothing done. Others here said I had to pay for his office, his staff, and on and on. I called my insurance company, reported as excessive. I cancelled followup with him. Yesterday self referred to another physician, location approximately same as first. This particular physician said what he ...

The cushion is completely flattened from my big rear end, and now I can't sit for more than a hour without the numb-butt feeling.  I'm looking for a good chair but, of course, I'm on an MT salary, so I can't pay top dollar.  I'm thinking about $150 or so.  Any ideas? ...


Transcriptioin Chair

I'm looking for a good transcription chair.  When we started working from home I asked to take my chair and told I could not.  I even offered to buy it from them but still could not get it.  I want one that adjusts in height and has arms that move in or out as well as up and down.  The chair at the hospital was over a $400.00 chair and it was so comfortable.  If anyone knows of a good place to purchase one of these over the internet please let me know.   &nbs ...

Chair Suggestions?
May 16, 2014

Does anyone have some suggestions for a good quality office chair, an ergonomic model in particular which focuses on support for the lower back? I've been able to get away with relatively cheap ones for over a decade, but after a back injury last year, the cheap ones are killing me. I've tried back rests and cushions with no relief. I've looked at some floor models in supply stores and online reviews, but can't tell which one would make a difference. I'd apprecia ...


Body Built Chair
Feb 24, 2010

I wanted to share my chair info with every MT.  I recently read about the Body Built Chair and decided to check it out.  I did finally purchase the chair after much hesitation because it cost so much.  I love the chair so much!  I am so pleased I purchased it.  They do have a 30 day return policy.  I was having pain and discomfort in my lower back, my legs,  my butt, every where it seems after years of transcribing.  I have purchased several chairs.  ...


Does Anyone Out There Use A Balance Ball Chair
Mar 24, 2011

I'm trying to use just my balance ball right now.  I have some low back problems and find that my posture is horrendous with sitting in a normal office chair; however, just the balance ball alone seems to be a little too low.  Overall, it feels more comfortable on my rear end than my normal office chair and I'm definitely sitting up straighter, but wondered if anyone else out there had any experiences, good or bad, with using a balance ball or the balance ball chair setup.&nb ...


Need To Vent (computer Chair Related)
Apr 27, 2011

My computer chair tore up, so I needed to get a new one. I tried some out at the store and got a cushy one. After I put it together and sat in it for 30 minutes, I had severe pain. It felt like my whole body went numb and tingly. So I had to take it back. I got a second chair and can tell it's not going to be comfortable and that I will need to take it back. I'm sick, tired, and frustrated about this. Not at the stores or the people that work there, because it's not their fault ( ...
