I have a question about Smartype and I will try to make it so it is understandable:) I bought Instant Text because I had to have some way of moving my Smartype over into Word 2007 (I had Word 2002). I have Instant Text turned off until I learn the new platform on the new company I am with. My problem is this, the Smartype line will not move with the page so when I get to the bottom of the page it covers up everything at the bottom and I can only manually move Smartype by scrolling back up ...

I am interviewing for a job that would be three days in office and two days at home. They requested my salary requirements, and would like to know what I would charge per page and half page for work done outside of the office. I have never had to worry about this before, and I am not sure what to say. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! I have been an MT for four years, two in a hospital and two working from home for different doctor's offices. ...
I tried to post this to the comedy board but I was unable to view the board afterwards. I am a Q employee and I was too tired to fight with the board so I am posting it here. Most of us work for the evil Q so we could use the laugh.

I will be placing this on the comedy board also, but since we at the evil Q have had such a bad day, I thought I would post it here also. Enjoy the laughs.

I really hope this doesn't get redirected. I meant to put it on the Main Board. I want to send out a request for more VR and dictation funnies. MTStars has gotten so depressing lately, and I could really use some laughs. ...
I noticed here a person asking how to get a job in this occupation and they listed where they had finished school. It was online so thought I would take a look. The ad said most finished in 4-6 months and you might have to go even less time if you are a CNP or the like. Get this, said transcription unusual in that many companies provide FULL benefits including paid vacations, sick leave, health insurance, retirement fundus and sign on bonuses for- dahdah INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS. ...

I was just trying to get into MQ Central, and I was having problems, and I immediately thought, uh oh, here go the layoffs! I mean immediately! I tried again and was able to finally get in, but it was just so crazy. I hope I get another job soon, I can't live like this. Damn you Q!! ...
Anyone other MDIer think it is funny that we have not heard one word from Dorothy, not even a good luck, nothing. She took the money and ran. She does not give a crap about all of us. ...
"The patient states that he also has a bowel in his toneails." Suppose to be "...a pull of his toenails" (explained later as pulling sensation because of thick toenails).

I thought we all need a laugh. I was typing the other night and it was supposed to say "the patient had internal hemorrhoids," but typed the patient had "mental hemorrhoids." I about fell out of my chair laughing. Very fittiing though because I think MQ gives a lot of us "mental hemorrhoids." ...
Just had to share this. An ad on the local radio inviting "everyone" to a seminar to become a "medical transcriptionist. Earn more money working at home than in an office." I laughed. I would definitely have gone, but unfortunately it is at least 1-2 hours away on a working night. How I wish it was closer. I would have love to have gone and given them an earful. I want to know where those jobs are because I'll go find one. Alas, it is not mean ...
On a lot of MTSO web sites there is a picture of a happy smiling MT with perfect hair and makeup wearing a headset with a mouthpiece to speak into. I wonder who are they talking to? LOL! ...
these new changes with account managers happened, the work has totally dried up (I have not been out of work for a very long time and have had much OT). Can you say offshore? I thought you could. Will have to keep an eye on Webquist. ...

Whatever she's called. I never talk to her on the phone because she is much more interested in what her kids and dogs are doing than what I have to say. She changed my schedule by phone one day, and then called me the day after I was off to find out why I hadn't worked the day before. I went part time and sent her an email with the request, worked the new schedule for over a week before she called me to say she had to evaluate my request for schedule change. Tol ...
I was looking at glassdoor, where you can see reviews of different companies. I was looking to see if there were any reviews on M*Modal. AND there are. The majority are bad -- really bad. What I find funny is that even Indian employees are complaining about them. One of them wrote "Joining here is like you are committing a suicide". So, how bad does a company have to be that even people in India think it is horrible? ...
I got a genuine blooper today. Made me giggle. ESL trying to be helpful and dictated, "BNP, that's B like boy, N like Nancy, and P like appetite."
