Just ran out of work, wondering if the rest of you are

clocking in and out. Punching in and typing 1 or 2 resports, clocking out, a job downloads, clock in, type, NJA, clock out. Punching in and out is time consuming and affects the little line count that I am getting!!! I've been doing this now for 4 hours and I'm done. Fire me, PLEASE, but I am not sitting here without consistent work punching that stupid time clock in and out all day long and not getting paid. I have much better things to punch. I'M SO ...

This is a patient who has a rash and the doctor says, "She is using s/l IV rest on it." Any clue???? ...

The patient was placed at s/l (ball rest) and sent home on s/l (prenal) nutrition and is readmitted for colectomy. This dictation is so fussy. Can you help please? ...

A while back I saw a post on here where an MT was advertising a foot rest that her husband was making that enabled transcriptionists to elevate their legs while still using the foot pedal. I believe it was taken down before I got the info. Does anybody know where I can get in touch with her? Thanks. ...

I thought I had a great job transcribing for a specialty clinic in Chicago, but lost it to speech wreck. MedScribe lied and told us it was a computer upgrade for Chicago, but now I'm left here with no work because it all went to speech wreck. I would have changed over to another account but I was sucked in and believed about the upgrade. Now I have no work. Anybody else?, because I have an attorney and he would like to hear from all of us. This industry is ...

Has anyone heard of what s/l "Rest-all" - placed over bony prominences to protect the skin? Thanks! :) ...

This 84-year-old female presents with a history of intermittent and variable expressive aphasia with apparent intact receptive capability. I believe that her intermittent episodes of speech ___(s/l rasp or rest) and repetition are do to her underlying expressive aphasia, and I do not find any evidence of an underlying epileptiform etiology. ...

For simplicity's sake, let's say I get a postaudit and it's 90%. Is my QC for the week 90%, or is it the one 90% audit averaged with my other work? OR, if there were 2 post audits, one being 100% and one being 90%, is it 95%? This is something I never got a clear answer on. I'm not sure they know lol. ...

Does M*Modal pay for rest breaks? ...

There's obviously an apples and oranges difference between Escription and the rest of the VR editing softwares out there. Those who are on Escription - bless your hearts - you are very fortunate. But if you haven't done VR on another platform, please stop trying to tell the rest of us we are obviously doing something wrong if we can't easily double our lines with VR. It just isn't happening for most of us. I have worked in transcription for 30 years - ...

I cannot type without a wrist rest for my keyboard. I had a good one and cannot replace it as they no longer make it. Can anyone suggest a good one? My old one was 19" long and about 2" deep. Thanks so much! ...

"...Coumadin, Percocet, Lovenox, and *s/l elevated bath rest*, as well as a scopolamine patch to apply prior to surgery." This is for preop total hip arthroplasty. Thank you for the help! ...

Another poster stated they only get paid when they type (just like the rest of us). Since going from per-hour to per line wages, I've been finding it nearly impossible to take any kind of a break whatsoever, whether it be a day off, or an hour break. I make so little at this, that all I can think of while doing anything other than typing, is how much money am I losing. Do you, too, start feeling guilty about unchaining yourselves from your desk for even the short ...

We are required to work a full-time schedule that includes either Saturday or Sunday, every weekend, forever. The only time we can take a full weekend is if we take a PTO day. But the problem is that we don't get paid holidays anymore (unless we work), so we are almost forced to take many of those as PTO days. Our sick days come out of our PTO days. I guess what I am saying is that the thought of having hardly any full weekends "forever" is very disheartening. The company ...

For all you Transcend haters – more fuel for the flames. This is PUBLIC record – nothing confidential here. No need to comment on the validity – this is straight from the Court records. By the way, they are in talks and have hopes to acquire 1 or 2 more companies THIS YEAR. Is your company going to be one of them? No one is safe!!! LET THE RANTINGS BEGIN ENJOY !!!!!

I'm typing a crush injury to a fingertip, with debridement and surgery, basically a tiny bit of fingertip amputation. The doctor several times mentions "nail rest" that might have to be excised. He says "nail rest" very clearly, but I can't find anything online showing that this is an official medical term, and I'd like to verify it before turning the report in. Thanks ...

Does that sound right?? ...

I work as an MT in a very rural area, so the pay is VERY good for me. We are a one income household since my husband got laid off and I easily pay the mortgage, car payments, all of the bills, etc. I was wondering, if a person lives in a much more expensive area, like California where a person's mortgage would easily be four times mine, do they get more money per line to compensate for that, or is it the same? ...

Does anyone miss just typing/transcribing a report the old fashioned way? Expansions are nice, I must admit, but ASR is boring. Just wondering..... ...

Why do companies not want to use mac computers? I have tested many times using word 2003 on my computer but they get scared or dont know what to do if I tell them I use a mac computer. ...

I have gone from NJA most of the time to now doing late work and have been having more work the last few days. How is this possible? Did MTs quit? I just don't get it. I am not complaining mind you but just wondering---how strange! ...

gotten their pay docked 3 cents a line for critical errors, over 5% QA submission, etc. I haven't heard anyone actually say that happened to them. Is it just a threat ? I know they would LIKE to dock our pay. The reason I ask is that I've been having a bad past few weeks.....extra difficult/bad sound quality reports plus stress along with that has caused me to have to sent more than 5% to QA plus I make two what they call critical errors (I saw them as ...

Hope I've got this on the right board. I'm to the point where I need to get a new chair. My back hurts, my butt hurts, and ... well ... you get the idea. just wondering if anyone can recommend a good, reasonably priced chair. ...

how hard it would be to switch from doing medical transcription to legal transcription? That might be a good way to transition out of MT for someone who wants to try something else and still work at home. I know nothing about it and thought maybe some of you do?? ...

Just wondering...when is "any where" used vs "anywhere"? Sentence is "fluid draining any where between...." Which is correct? ...

As an in-house MT we were required to wear business casual clothing. Another job required scrubs. Now that I work from home, I wear pJs, sweats, jeans, shorts, whatever. I noticed that when I am "dressed" (not in pj's or sweats) that I seem to be more productive and I was wondering if others have noticed the same thing. Sometimes I wonder if the way we dress to transcribe affects our productivity as a professional employee. You know when you dress up to go ou ...
