F2 to toggle capitalization - JustMe

If Canada Fluency is the same as USA, then the F2 key should toggle your capitalization off and on. Also, pressing F1 while in an open report should bring up a window with all of the keystroke combinations. Hope this helps!
thanks - nm

It is hard since their spell checker is weird too, Looks like french english rather than english english.

Is anybody else on MT Stars employed by Terra Nova transcription out of Canada? I have worked for them for a little over a year and am wondering what others are thinking about the drastic changes taking place.

You don't know who the managers are, or even what division is falls under, and the old managers don't have a clue, how does one escalate to find out? MTQuestions? Tossed to the wolves here..but hey hey, I still have work! LOL. Slowly losing my mind on trying to get answers while restructuring in in progress. I've learned too much from the past that patience is not always a virtue. Things get lost in the shuffle. Anyone ever had this happen to them? Any suggestions. ...

I have been reading the posts of many of the unhappy MTs on this board for some time now. Seems like for those of you are happy in your present situation, so many others are just about at their "wits" in theirs. It is very sad I think to see an industry that seemed so lucrative, where you earned a decent wage for what you did, you were happy with what you did and you "loved" what you were doing.
It has been rather a tough year for me. I have been out of work over a year now and there are so ma ...
I saw somewhere that more accounts were moving to India on July 1. Did that include a huge NY account including clinics that went through a large in-house audit about 2 months ago?

I wondered if anyone has noticed a drop in their pay since being moved to this platform? I am being paid an hourly wage in order for the system to learn my accounts and also until it starts coming in as text and we get our speed up, but I have noticed about a 200 to 300 dollar drop in my pay. Anyone else experience this with this crappy platform? ...

Once your primary moved to the new platform, did you still have access to Bayscribe to work on your secondaries when work was low? And were you told there were certain requirements you must meet in order to move with your account to BeyondText? ...
She demanded schedule changes of all M-F MTs because of end-of-the-week/weekend TAT problems. I wasn't concerned because my entire schedule is for those troublesome days. Now I get an email that she moved too many people to my shift, and she wants me to change!!?????

I've already been through school with Andrews and am getting ready to start the transition ICD-10 course, and I honestly don't mean to be a jerk about M modal. I do feel badly for the MTs there, but I don't see why all the MM coding talk couldn't have just stayed with the MM side of the board. Anyone else feel the same? ...
One ad I saw starts at $12.45 an hour. Right now I make more, but it's only a matter of time until I don't. If anyone has tried this, I'd appreciate some insight.
Thanks!!!! ...
I have taken a new job to transcribe for a hospital in Canada. What are the differences? Can you post (or email me) links for websites that you use for references - looking up doctors, meds, etc. Is the spelling different? ...
I am not good in math and would like to know how you figure out which is better 7 cpl w/spaces and a 55-char. line or 8 cpl w/spaces and a 65-char. line? I am told the 7 cpl rate uses a lot of canned text that you get paid the full amount for so this should be a plus.
Anyone out there feel brainy today? If so, thanks for your help. ...
It is also important to watch for the development of delirium tremens and treat with s/l perincual valiums if this should occur.

I wonder if the in-house employees, office employees, have their time as scrutinized as ours is. I wonder if they get docked for, let's say, going to the bathroom or getting a cup of coffee. I know the transcriptionists working in-house make $15 an hour to start. There was a job advertised 6 months ago or so, and I questioned it. Here is their reasoning: Because they have to drive and wear dress clothes, they make more money. What the #$)(. I have t ...
