Those getting "mouse reports" should reply with email that

I'm looking for a company that leaves you alone if you choose to use the mouse and foot pedal instead of keystrokes. My experience with eScription was horrible, in that I was constantly getting little messages saying "This is how often you used the mouse," demanding that I use the keystrokes. Is every V.R. platform like this? ...

It's management trying to figure out who you are? but maybe I'm just being paranoid. ...

What percentage of emails to the MTSO asking a question are answered? ...

First, I agree, why do people reply all. BUT, why does DH and others in management position send out blanket emails to everyone - tit for tat I guess. Working for years with TT/Imedx, and I don't want to keep hearing about what others are not doing regarding TAT, etc. I do my work and am on time and work full shifts. Medical transcription is truly a bizarre world. I have worked for major companies and small ones too, and NEVER have I seen such a crazy lot. PS - have YOU used up your PTOs ...

Don't you just love it. We're supposed to be sitting here with one foot in the air, ready to reply immediately to any e-mails sent out by our managers, but apparently what's good for the goose isn't good for the minions.9 days ago I e-mailed my boss, her boss, AND the person in HR who handles our group, letting them know of an impending situation for which I am going to need some time off.Can you hear the crickets chirping? I can, and that's all I can hear. ...

Anbody get there's yet? Guess MT week is over, and still no present. Oh well. The Q really knows how to make you feel special. . ...

Got an e-mail suggesting I use my mouse less. Does anyone know how to use keystrokes for spelling suggestions instead of the right click mouse? I've become so paranoid that my production has plummeted over the last week... ~ scaredy-mouse ...

pad for MT week? I got a card from my supervisor ~ generic card ~ and she didn't even sign her name to it. I at least want a coffee mug!!!! ...

Hi. I've been reading postings about your mouse clicks being monitored. What is that about? Why would they do that? What does that signify? ...

I am just wondering if any of you are using a wireless mouse and how they are working for you? I currently use a wired mouse and have for centuries. Since I use mine more than most people, it seems, they do not last. I am having difficulty finding wired mouse any longer due to being outdated. I am hesitant in getting a wireless because wireless tends to slow me down with a second of lag. Those seconds add up and I am just wondering how beneficial they are. Any ...

ports and the mouse will not scroll at all. What could be the cause. Using Vista. Never had this issue before. Thanks to all. ...

Am I doing something wrong? I notice with the 7.4 Fluency that there is no other choice but to use your mouse to travel up and down between patient visits. The arrow key doesn't work, the tab key doesn't work. Are they now pro mouse? ...

My mouse seems to have a mind of its own. Keep skipping all over on me. Is this a virus or the mouse?? ...

My number of mouse clicks is over 500/hr. I'm not doing anything unusual or different than I do every other day. System is wack. ...

Hi all. I was just wondering what other MTs prefer...little short reports or very long reports? Do too many of either affect your line count (and therefore your pay)? I definitely prefer very long reports! ...

Does anyone else feel more comfortable with a wireless set up? What keyboard and mouse do you have? ...

I just got my second DEP ASR Productivity Results. If the person that has time to count mouse clicks, time spent away from keyboard, etc is reading this, then answer this, why don't you take into account time spent reading multiple client profiles, time spent reading sample reports to get information, etc? Do you not expect us to leave our chairs occasionally? I personally am more suited to using my mouse. A lot of the shortcuts just didn't work as well for me.& ...

I guess I am truly stupid. The numbers mean nothing to me. On my report they are gauged against nothing -- just with a goal to "improve." My lines were 197 per hour (which is incorrect and too high) and I guess my "corrected" number if I was worth my salt and editing properly is 297. Most confusing document they have sent me thus far. I would be angrier probably IF I COULD UNDERSTAND IT. ...

I got an email giving all the figures of how many keystrokes I had during a certain period of time (can't remember when for sure) and inactive time in an ASR job, etc. Do many of you only use the keyboard and not the mouse? I've tried to learn all the keyboard functions and for me it's a lot easier to use the mouse and I don't think that has slowed me down any. They're not telling me not to use the mouse but instead showing how many more keystrokes ...

I know the "push" is to use the shortcuts but it takes me twice as long to remove my hands from the keyboard to reach the arrow keys and alt+shift or ctrl+shift than to just click where I want to go with the mouse. I was just wondering if it's worth it to retrain myself to use those particular shortcuts. I tried creating my own but they will not work in our system. The other ones we have are fine but the cursor ones stink. ...

On Enterprise Voice Recognition, are you a "mouser" or keyboarder? I have tried and tried to use the keyboard, but just can't get it down. I have been using a mouse so long, it is a hard habit to break. Anyone have any ideas? Need to bring my speed up on Voice. ...

I know we are pressured to use only the keyboard--I guess bc it may be faster...not sure about that...but I just can't get used to that. I'm faster using the mouse, especially when navigating around a speech wreck report. Anyone else like this? Do they really care how we get it done? Has anyone ever gotten dinged by using the mouse too much instead of keyboard commands? I am sure they can tell exactly what we do on the keyboard. ...

Do you feel you are getting a good rate, and most importantly, do you set your hours? Do you work weekends, etc.? I am wondering how flexible they are for ICs. Thanks! ...

I was wondering if anyone would know of a company that would hire someone that is enrolled in their medical transcription courses? ...

You are without a doubt the rudest and most negative person I have ever met. for your information, I have been a medical transcriptionist since 1988, 24 years. How dare you call me a snail typist when you don't even know me?!!!!Also, telling me not to come here and gripe well ain't that the pot calling the kettle black!!! All I see on this site is griping. But I see this is only for the select few. I hope you have a very negative Christmas as that is what you seem to enjoy the most. ...

Gettin' a bit tired of never hearing back from my TSM about something that I've been trying to get an answer on now for over a week. Very aggravated!!!!! ...

I understand that mouse clicks are monitored because MQ encourages the use of hot keys, but what about needing to use the mouse to reference Google or MT bookmarked sites? Is that not allowed? Does a person need a second computer for that? ...

Cannot get my mouse to work with Extext. I am using Word 2003 and Windows XP ...

I know as long as I have done this type of work not me but unusual and wondering if any others noticed such. I can be working on VR and try to go and make a correction, be on the line where I want to enter something and yet when I do the correction will wind up 2 or 3 lines above. This drives me nuts! I don't know if mouse, keyboard but have used both for sometime now. Any suggestions? ...
