Queue - please

The word is queue.

It is not cue.

They are neither interchangeable nor synonymous.

Not picking on anybody, just sayin'.

I'm not sure what exactly you're referring to but in physical therapy, when a patient exercises on cue, it is cue not queue. Cue is a hint, suggestion or prompt. Queue refers to a braid, or a long line. Not sure what that has to do with a medical report unless you're waiting in the "queue" at the doctor's office. ;-)

I think someone had referred to the jobs in one's 'cue' - Varmint_hunting

Which just about sent me over the edge too, because that would be 'queue.'

cue ? and queue - what?

Now I am not sure what you are referring to?

It is not 'cue', it is 'clue', what means hint, or better: a slight indication.

The OP was right, she meant with 'cue', what should have been 'queue' the VR documents that are waiting in her queue to be downloaded and edited by her.

Apparently I didn't see the message the OP was referring to. I've typed many PT reports and the term is cue, not clue as to perform when cued, given a hint or suggestion. But, since I wasn't aware of what the message referred to, it really doesn't matter. :-)

Once again, I was down to my last few jobs, but hurrying to get them because I could tell from the list of jobs that someone else was eating up the dictation too. I had my download setting on 2 jobs. I was zipping through a 30-second dictation set to 150% playback, and once that was done, I was planning to do the other job in my queue and maybe one more, before there was no more work. But when I finished the 30-second job, the other job in my queue was gone, and all the jobs had vanish ...

I know this has been mentioned before, but here goes..have any of you ever had jobs disappear from your queue that you had just gotten, especially one that had a decent line count and was non-VR? This happened to me yesterday. I had just started a job and all of a sudden poof it was gone!! I then sent a message to my supervisor, who said she didn't take it, and said maybe it timed out? I know it did not time out because I had just gotten it. This is not the fir ...
