It is very interesting to me, now that I have completed the Allied MT course, that grammar was were never taught, besides in high school. The BOS was required, but no emphasis was ever placed on needing excellent grammar skills. I am completely discouraged by the numerous negative and cynical remarks on this site. MT is a field I choose because I wanted a second career. I am a recent widow, and frankly feel very down because of the many of the comments. Still without a job and very discou ...

Do you correct the dictator's grammer? My 12 year old niece just recently corrected my mom when my mom said she was laying in bed. Taylor went on to explain the difference between laying and lying.

(I know the rest of the sentence needs work, but for now I just want to address the "which he agrees" part.) &nb ...

All of the ulcer sites have improved The patient remains off (of) antibiotic therapy. The patient tells me she is off (of) oxygen therapy during the day.& ...

It seems like lately, I've been seeing people use what I thought was incorrect grammar so many places that I'm starting to question whether I'm the one who has it wrong. Would appreciate your help! The usage I'm referring to is when people say "So-And-So" and themselves as an object or an object of a preposition.

For example, if the doctor says platelets 277, then that's why you type. Later on down the road, knock points off my score for typing 277, claiming that we are supposed to type 277,000. Why does stuff like this ALWAYS seem to happen? Then I get points off my score because two different QAs are telling me 2 different things. I can't take this anymore. The last 3 jobs I have had were like this. I'm sick of getting yelled at and points taken off ...
