What type of ear phones are MTs using nowadays? - me
Posted: Jul 09, 2014
What type of ear phones are MTs using nowadays? I keep breaking my head set (the wires break inside and I have to hold them just right to use them). It never occurred to me that the 15,000 (slight exag) ear buds I have in the house (young kids from every electonic ever known to man) has a set. They seem to work fine. Is there any reason not to use ear buds versus my old style stethoscope ear phones? EBAY actually had an ad for Apple ear buds for $2.99 including free shipping! I couldn't stop laughing at how easy that was.

C-phones Nov 20, 2012I work for a hospital in California on my C-phone. Over the last week, ever since Comcast demanded that I add a second line because I was using over 5000 minutes of long distance, I have not been able to dial into the hospital. I can call the hospital number (long distance) but when I get the prompts asking for my ID and password, the system will not take my information from the C-phone. Yet, when I call the 800 number (for emergencies only), my C-phone worked ...

C-phones Vs. Internet Platforms. Jun 12, 2010I think migrating from C-phones to Internet platforms was a mistake.
Over the years I have worked on both Lanier and Dictaphone C-phone accounts as well as about eight different Internet platforms. I'll take a C-phone account any day. C-phone accounts normally involve using a professional grade word processor like Word or Wordperfect rather than an amateurish proprietary thing that resembles a word processor but often lacks the features of a professional word processor.Addition ...

Thanks. ...
