the software hasn't changed much. When I used to do QA in DQ, we had to copy and paste into Word in order to do a proper spell check. What is the point in upgrading if something like this is not going to be fixed. Kinda sets up MTs to make mistakes. ..crazy!

Spellchecker Help May 19, 2014Hi, I recently transferred to a new computer, and had Stedman's medical spellchecker installed on my old computer. I just tried to put it on my new computer, and it said it needed an activation code, so I tried everything and couldn't find it. Anyways they said they stopped activating that program three weeks ago, REALLY!? UGH! Are there any good free medical spellcheckers that you know of that aren't going to kill my computer? (I can't afford to buy one) Any help would be so ...

Stedman's Spellchecker Sep 05, 2012I am thinking of buying/downloading Stedman's Spellchecker but had a question and wondered if anyone here can help me out. They have Spellchecker Plus for $99.95 and also Spellchecker Plus for $39.95. It looks as though the latter might be an update, but the descriptions are basically the same. Does anyone know if you need the $99.95 one first or will the $39.95 one do the job? I appreciate any feedback! ...

You Know Your Job As An MT Sucks When: Feb 08, 2014- You work full-time, often more than 40 hours a week, and you still qualify for food stamps, special rates on your utilities, and partial unemployment because actual dictation you get each day is so sparse.
- Although you're one of the "lucky" ones who has some form of insurance, you still don't visit a doctor because you can't come up with the copayments.
- It's been years since you actually went inside a retail store and bought a new item. You can no longer even im ...

A New Company & Options For Spellchecker Jun 29, 2010I started with a new company and I did not have spellcheck, so I ordered it and it was quite expensive for the 2010 one. Now I found out that when I am in their program they are using their own. This has really ticked me off because I was TOLD that I needed to download a spellchecker and now I cannot send it back because I have downloaded it. Is there anyway that I can use this spellchecker instead of theirs?
Any feedback will be appreciated. ;) ...

Am I The Only One Who Thinks DQS 6.1 Sucks? Sep 04, 2010On paper, some of the changes sounded good, like the auto numbering. But in practice it seems like all this new version does is cause DQS to run much more slowing, constantly locking up, auto-saving (and slowing down) too often, amongst other irritating little things. Why can't their upgrades ever actually be an UPgrade. I think they need to start calling them DQS downgrades.
And what I hate the most is in the ADT screen where you used to be able to just hit enter, ...
Mentoring - This Sucks! Apr 24, 2012I guess we are all going to get mentored at one point or another as I just received an email to set me up for it. I make over the lph and get all my required hours in each week so I don't see why I am being mentored at all. Like I said, I guess we have no choice and will all be mentored sooner or later. This sucks! ...

This Place Sucks. Aug 07, 2013The global MTSOs have ruined everything good about becoming an MT.
1. Flexible hours (our time, not theirs)- gone
2. Good pay/livable wage - gone
3. Unlimited income (lots of work, anytime) - gone
4. Self esteem - gone
Remember the good ol' days?
These metrics and the micro managing are for the birds. Give me a break.

Ascend Heatlhcare Sucks! Oct 14, 2009Beware anyone thinking about working for Ascend! They are extremely unorganized and chaotic. I don't know why they make you submit invoices - which are very time consuming to prepare - when they will just pay you something different or not at all. They shorted my first paycheck by 1/3. When I was finally able to get in touch with someone, they did send me the adjustment.... but I have not received my last paycheck at all!!! I have tried to contact them several ...

FWIW I can't sleep either. Total insomniac. I'm not very productive because of this distractibility and it concerns me a lot. Does anyone have tips ...
