How do you deal with boredom

Does anybody else out there suffer with such BOREDOM that you can hardly stand it? Just wondering what others were doing to help with it. ...

I used to work on an account I loved and recently lost to EPIC. I never minded voice recognition because the account was interesting and I took great pride in each report I typed. Now, though, I understand what everyone is talking about when they say "mind numbing bordedom." I must look at the clock 5000 times a shift and just keep counting the seconds until I can turn off the computer. ...

Okay, guess I will show how dumb I am. I am an MT in a in-house office for a urologist. he dictates, I listen and transcribe. i get on here and read everyone fussing about VR. I get that VR is voice recognition...but what is your job? If you are an MT, you have VR, I realize it gets it wrong sometimes but what do you do? Read it to make sure VR gets it right and then make the changes? Just wondering. Any reply appreciated. Thanks! ...

A little over a month ago my old PC finally crashed after 10 good years. I replaced it and had to put antivirus on it (of course). I ended up taking my son to the ER and can't afford insurance, so I ended up paying out of pocket for his antibiotics. (Sad that the antibiotics cost less than a month of insurance for the two of us.) My antivirus expires the day before I get my check. Are there any safe alternatives for one day until I get paid? ...

A couple of days ago I took my mom to the ER because of sudden back pain. We live in a town of ~20,000 and have a 100-bed hospital with a fully staffed ER. We were the ONLY ones in the waiting room. It took 1-1/2 hours to be seen by a triage nurse, 1 hour to be escorted to an ER room, 1 hour to be seen by a nurse (never seen by an MD), and 2 hours for a different nurse to wander distractedly into the room with discharge/followup instructions. There were at least 20 employ ...

Urinalysis has been obtained today suggesting 50 to 100 WBCs, RBCs, many bacteria, with a WBC of 6.9, hemoglobin 14.3, positive nitrites and moderate leukoesterase in his urine. First, I cannot find leukoesterase in any dictionary and believe he must mean leukocyte esterase. Can I change it? Should I flag it if I do or is it one of those things that is obvious enough that it doesn't need to be flagged. Second, should I punctuate it differently? I mean the WBC and he ...

They take apps but I never see them advertise or anything on message boards about them. ...

So, what happened on the call today?? I am curious as I was thinking about applying with them but now not so sure. ...

Would appreciate all info, pay, platform, etc. Thanks. ...

They send me an email everyday saying they are hiring. I have read here they are not. Also, they are running out of work and sending work to India. Any current employees willing to give opinion of working situation? Pay and bennies sound pretty good. ...

Every time I ask a question, if this one specific QA person sees my question, she emails a snippy response. How do you all handle rude QA? ...

Seriously, FIESA takes 3 minutes at most to log in, put your initials in the feedback box and log out. I don't understand why everyone makes themselves such a victim here ? You don't have to like FIESA or even agree with it, but to not check it is dumb, in my humble opinion. ...

Do they suck that bad, they can't keep help, the account is crap, what's their problem? Just wondering, when someone keeps posting ad for help every few months or so. ...

I did a search on here for information about them and couldn't find much. None recent. Their ad has 3 dislikes and I don't see what's wrong with it. They use EMDAT. Would appreciate any information on them. Thanks in advance. ...

Increasingly frustrated. Mandatory OT and we have to jump to it, but try to get an e mail answered is like asking for a million dollars. Seriously. Why is my time less valuable than the management? This is starting to sound like N and MM all over again and I am so very disappointed! AAAAAKKKK. ...

I have worked at the same company for over 5 years. I have been switched from account to account and team leader to team leader and am now currently under a team leader who I absolutely loathe. This woman is so hateful.....I hate her. Nothing I do is good enough for her. I can never seem to get my work done quick enough for her. It seems it is all about quantity, not quality. I pride myself in my work, hardly ever leave blanks, never have any complaints on my ...

even get a response. I have had almost 20 years of MT experience and I can only assume, based on what I read on here, that they don't want me because I am too experienced and they only want newbies who they can pay 6 or 7 cpl. Has anyone else had this experience with them? ...

http://nashville.bizjournals.com/nashville/stories/2010/04/12/daily31.html MedQuist Inc. and its majority shareholder, CBay Inc., will buy Franklin-based Spheris Inc. for $116.3 million — $48 million more than the companies originally offered for the bankrupt medical transcription company and its India subsidiary. A Delaware bankruptcy judge signed off on the sale today following an all-night auction of Spheris’ assets that concluded at 6 a.m. The price includes $98 ...

What is the deal with this company. They put an ad out like they are desperate for help and don't even respond either way? Is it a joke or for real? ...

Does anyone know what the deal is with United Transcription. I have a ton of experience but obviously not good enough. What is it they are looking for or not looking for? Cannot find much on the company, starting to wonder about whether this is even legit or not. Please advise. Thanks. ...

through a post on a job board. I took the test, which was open book and untimed. I checked each answer before submitting so I know I got everything correct. I have over 20 years of experience with multiple specialties. I never heard anything. Then there was a post here to send resume directly to the recruiter, not through the website, which I did. Then there was an ad to apply for Dictaphone accounts directly to the recruiter, which I did. I still haven't heard anything. ...

Maybe this is just my OCD tendencies speaking, but it really irritates me how the blue bar and the green bar do not line up. For example, if I am scheduled to work until 11, then I clock out at 10:30 for a break, the green bar for "Actuals" is already showing way past the end of the blue bar for "Plan." To whoever wrote the code behind the web page, how hard could it possibly have been to program the graphics so that they line up? It's really no big deal in actuality, but for some ...

I have come to the conclusion that the "Boss" is a bully. I am an IC but I say boss because that is how he comes across. He is difficult to deal with and uses bully-like tactics to get what he wants. I cannot be alone in this situation. I am looking for advice and helpful tips on how to deal with the situation short of quitting. Thanks! ...

If the bulk of our work is nights and weekends, why arent our lovely HDSAs and TSAs working the same damn hours? I dont care about their families or if they have to work two jobs and cant keep changing their hours (oh wait, they get a living wage and dont work 2 jobs). I have changed my hours 3 times in the past 8 months. What happened to all the new hires? What, gave them 9-5 also? Dont they know they are chasing their own damn tails? Moving our hou ...

i just received an email from a MT that is in another country asking me to consider a business deal whereby I would send her work and take 30% of her pay for myself. She emailed me directly from one of my posts here. She may be sending this letter to many on this board as I do not know why she would have just singled out one of us. I reported this to the webmaster and just want to give a heads up to all on the board. ...

Can someone please tell me HOW to do a search on this board? I can't figure it out...never had a problem before. ...

Anybody else get annoyed at docs who put every job they dictate in as a priority? I mean, everything they dictate, from a 2-month-old death summary to a 3-week-old T&A. I really hate the ones that are so old that the billing numbers have been erased from system. I'm guessing they were threatened with their license being pulled to get their work caught up. That's more important than H&Ps that need to be transferred with a dying patient right?? ...

Oh, transcriptionst, back up there where I said ... please change it to ... Now come down to the bottom and continue, no wait, add this ... to the physical. And add this ... after the H&P. Now, back down to the bottom and continuing on ... ...
