Sore body working in 7.1 - alphamt


Posted: Oct 01, 2012

My back is aching, my spirit bummed.  No matter how "hard" i work, it is never consistently fast enough to beat my old regular MT speed.   Getting too old physically to work in such a stilted fashion.  Maybe tomorrow will be better.  Thanks for listening!

I feel like you... - Worn and beaten down MT

My legs are starting to hurt, from the hips right down to the toes. I cant do an 8-hour shift anymore. I cant even do a 6 hour shift straight through anymore. I think I might have to do 2-hours sessions soon... Work 2, break 1, work 2, break 1, so it should only take me 11 hours to do 8! This is what my live has turned into. :(

Sore body - Nature

[ In Reply To ..]
OK, nobody could have been more scared of the new 7.2 than me. I have been on it for about a month or so now. I am doing better, and my activity time was less than the 15%. It was 11%. I can remember when it was 27%. There are a few other things that have gotten better too. I have ADD, and it is hard for me to learn new things, but little by little I am learning something new each week. It will get better for you. Before long you will be very good at your work once more. Chin up!! Things will get better.

I took a week off - sm

I have had 2 disk surgeries in my neck so far...Took a week off to get stuff done around the house..to include painting the shutters outside and pressure washing the whole house...I was in less pain after that week then sitting here typing...Need to retire.

I am not making a 7.1 connection - With sore body-see msg

I'm not sure how 7.1 is different from any other software in terms of our bodies hurting, it's from SITTING here, and not just sitting, being totally stressed out.

Your right, sitting all day is a killer no matter what - nm

Update To Sore Bottom
Mar 10, 2014

I was the one who posted about using a memory foam pillow, but after the next poster mentioned the Herman Miller Mirra chair, I decided to do some research. I ended up going to a used office supply store and purchasing a Steelcase Leap.  Great chair, but the lumbar support didn't go low enough for my small frame.  So after a week of lower back pain, I went back to the store and exchanged it for the Herman Miller.  I just started using it today and already I'm thrilled. ...

Body Built Chair
Feb 24, 2010

US MT Working Outside Of The US

I have an odd question.  If a US trained Medical Transcriptionist works from home (in the U.S.), but then decides to spend 1/2 the year (or more) in a foreign country, is it possible (ethical/legal) to continue working as an MT while in that country?  The MT would keep the US address, and bank account.  All paychecks would continue to be direct deposited into current U.S. bank account.  MT would continue to pay U.S. taxes on all monies earned.  Does anyone see anyt ...
