Have you ever looked up your TSM on Google or Facebook? - anon

Posted: Oct 22, 2013

I was curious what she looked like so I looked her up. She looks *exactly* like she sounds. Have you ever looked yours up?

no, I'm not that nosy, and have much more important - things to do with my time. nm

After working with the same TSM for over 10 years, I at least ADMIT to being a tiny bit curious about what she looks like.

But you know what, I wanna be just like you when I grow up and be way too busy to be curious.

I have googled some doctors to see what they look like.

HA! I've done that too ... - anon

The ones with the nicest voices almost always turn out to be the biggest disappointments visually, haha. BUT, the strange effect of looking up the mumblers, speed talkers, etc is that there is an actual "face" to go along with the voice and I find I have a little more compassion when I do their reports now.

Yes - Me too exactly! - Finding their face makes them more human.

With a bad dictator, if I can put the name to a face, when I get their stuff in the future, I just go "Oh, you, Dr. Mumbles, you silly socks!"

I love that someone else does the same thing! :D

Sometimes I find local news stories about the particular doctor, and that makes them even more interesting to me. But knowing what they look like is the best.

Totally agree with matching a face with a voice with the dictators. I will look them up on their hospital website and see what they look like.

Me too! - curiousMT

I look up doc pics on hospital sites ever since I had one we could not determine if male or female and had a generic name. Kind of like "Pat" on SNL. :) Anyway had my supervisor guess man or woman and she got it wrong. That was in the day when your supervisors acted like real people with a sense of humor.

I haven't done that but I will now! Sometimes it helps to see what a person looks like, makes it easier to talk to a person like a person. Great idea!

i am friends with a former TSM that went to Nuance - but havent looked up the 2 since her

I haven't signed up for either one yet (yes, I know what a dinosaur I am, Brianasaurus timidus). My questions are: 1. If you're on both, is one better than the other? I've heard Google+ is better, having learned from all the mistakes Facebook has made. 2. Do you have any secrets for setting up your privacy settings, etc. so that YOU, and not someone else, controls what gets seen, and by whom? Really looking forward to your answers because I'd like to get ...

Where to look now? I feel like I have looked everywhere possible. I applied to a place in Minnesota. They had told me, "After we review all of your tests (which I passed) and your application, along with your online interview, you will be contacted." I have not yet been contacted, and that was on 9/22. I have emailed them and everything, and they have not responded. I was thinking about calling them, but should I even bother? Also, I had advice from my mother ...

KarmaWhen people insult you, don’t take offense, don’t take it personally, but do listen to their words. They are telling you how they see the world, and they are telling you the exact negative qualities that they possess. "The Law of Mirrors" states that one can only see what’s in them, regardless if it is what is actually present in reality or not. Release the need to defend or try to explain to them that you’re not being whatever-nasty-insult-they’ve-thrown-at-yo ...

I decided to look how many hours left in PTO and it was deducted today because I used some PTO on this paycheck that should have been deposited in my account yesterday morning. I think that is good news? Payroll doing their job? Maybe it means paychecks should be in our accounts in pending mode which should be deposited first and then deductions taken out next. Otherwise, my direct deposit check would not show until the 12th which to me, is one day late. ...

Please Read and Pass On about this terrible, sneaky, little secret that most people do not know. Thank you for reading, as I know this is long, and I am putting my job in jeopardy by giving this information, but I feel that Americans need to know that this is dangerously and secretly happening to them. We, MTâ��s, across the country, have been talking and have decided to tell people what is happening to all of us and our medical information. We are in fear of what is happening and are trying ...

in a few months. I get direct deposit and rarely check my pay stubs on line. I've been doing significantly more lines this month so I wanted to see exactly what I make per line on ASR. I went from 6.75 to .555!! What? I am SO upset and disappointed. Why didn't they tell me about this huge cut in pay? Here I was calculating my lines at the 6+ rate, only to see on my pay stub that I've been making substantially less per line. I feel sick! I am going to contact my supe, but I don ...

I mean, Nuance ins doesn't cover anything really. It's only in case of something catastrophic and then you'd better be able to pay $5000 out of pocket right?
