Cold hands decreases productivity and accuracy.

Does anyone else have this problem. I can not stand it. My hands and feet and nose are so cold. I have socks and slippers on. In fact, my right foot is much colder than my left and is painful cold. The veins in my right wrist are recently smaller and the left are still normal and stick out like the right used to but now they are teeny tiny. I do not know if this is all related or not, but sick of feeling like crap and having wierd symptoms that gets the r ...

Thought I'd share -- I finally found a way to get a fresh cup of coffee in under 2 minutes (fingers not typing=no money)... I found a great website that delivers single serve coffee makers & machines. The machine brews in about 45 seconds, so I'm back at it faster. What's even better, my 10-year-old can now make me a cup because it's so easy to use. My 6 a.m. shift is a little easier now :) www.coffeemarvel.com ...

Real-Time Writing 200+ words per minute - 100% accuracy I use the Stenomachine to input my text. I am up to 150 words per minute which translates into timed writings of 400 lines per hour. I am curious to know if anyone of my fellow transcriptionists is using the Stenomachine and what success have you had with it. Also, if there is anyone interested in finding out about steno real-time writing go to You-Tube site "Court Reporting Contest - 280 Words Per Minute! - You ...

It's 27 here, but wind chill 15. My bones are cold. ...

I feel like I'm living back up north minus the snow. Water pipes to the house are frozen, no water in the house!! ...

I have tried this and it works: 1. Place a hat at the end of your bed. It can be any kind of hat. 2. Get into bed and pull up the covers. 3. Drink whiskey until you see two hats. If it doesn't work, it won't matter. ...

At the risk of getting tomatoes thrown at me for those people in the north, here in SW Florida, we're not used to cold weather. It's 56 today, and going into the 30s tonight. I can't stop shivering. The heat in many of the homes is not efficient at all (it shouldn't have to be!), and our windows and doors aren't insulated. We have an open floor plan and high, vaulted ceilings, so heating it is almost impossible. And it's windy out so all the cold here is coming in t ...

I am reaching out to my fellow MT's to ask what to do about my cold feet. This time of year my feet get extremely cold while I type all day. I have never typed in shoes, and really cannot because I can't feel the difference in the pedals. If I wear shoes I end up backspacing or forwarding all the time. I can wear house shoes with a very soft, flexible sole most of the time, but my feet freeze this time of year. Any suggestions? ...

Any opinions from mums out there? ...

John went to visit his 90-year-old grandfather in a very secluded, rural area of Saskatchewan After spending a great evening chatting the night away, the next morning John's grandfather prepared breakfast of bacon, eggs and toast. However, John noticed a film like substance on his plate, and questioned his grandfather asking, 'Are these plates clean?' His grandfather replied, 'They're as clean as cold water can get em. Just you go ahead and fin ...

On Saturday night, my boyfriend and I went to a friend's house for a pre-Thanksgiving gathering. While there, I noticed that his breath was exceptionally rank (I could be standing 3 feet from him and smell it). After pushing gum several times and him turning it down, I finally had to tell him his breath was terrible. He chewed gum, but it never really got better. On Sunday, he started not feeling well...like he was coming down with a cold. Yesterday, he felt worse. ...

I have a cold that's just been hanging on and on, or else it's a new one that I picked up very close to the end of the last one. Anyway. What are some things to do to make youself feel better while not making you sleepy? I want something warm and comforting without making me want to crawl under a pile of blankets more than I already want to. ...

Business Insider January 21, 2016 Harsh driving conditions in winter are already hard on your car, but you could be making things a lot worse if you're turning your vehicle on in the morning so it can 'warm up' before you drive off. If you're one of the many drivers who thinks it's important to idle your car — turn it on and let it sit — in these frigid winter months to protect the engine, you've likely fallen victim to a myth that may be doin ...

Dictated: Patient has deformity of right fifth hand. Huh - patient has five right hands? I'm sure he probably meant right 5th finger, but that is not what he said. ...

It's been raining off and on all day and probably one of the last nights of "winter" type weather we'll have. My husband is in the kitchen making homemade albondigas and tortillas, which we love on nights like this. Does anyone else have a cold/rainy weather favorite food? I hope this rain lasts for a couple of days...it's so relaxing :-) ...

I usually buy fresh birds, but opted for the more budget-friendly 39-cents-per-pound rock-solid frozen version this time This turkey will be cooked before Sunday (hving an erly get-together), so I don't quite have enough time to defrost it in the fridge. The instructions suggest submersion in "cool" water in the sink for 30 minutes per pound, with frequent water changes. It has air-tight vacuum sealed packaging. I'm thinking that changing the wat ...

This is the best quote I ever heard come out of the president's mouth, but the situation with Putin just seems be growing more worrisome each day. "It's not a new Cold War," Obama told reporters. "What it is, is a very specific issue related to Russia's unwillingness to recognize that Ukraine can chart its own path." ...

I really don't know what Trump's sniffling was about, but all I could think about was how I want to hand the docs a tissue and tell them to go blow their nose when they are dictating and snorting. Maybe he has pneumonia and snorts coke? When Clinton got into her subject, she was really good. It is too bad she is not more comfortable when speaking, then she would be phenomenal. Wow, Trump turned into a babbling fool that last half. ...

How many of us here dabbled in witchcraft as a teen? I got to thinking about O'Donnell's defense which seems to be the standard, "Who didn't do this when she/he was a teen?". I must have been the biggest stick in the mud when I was a kid. I never broke the law. I never stole things. I never raced my parents' car. I didn't smoke or drink. My parents liked my friends and my friends parents liked me. I never dabbled in witchcraft. Gee. I guess I am not quali ...

This is a silly pet peeve of mine. First let me say that I don't like the "turn around and greet your neighbor" in church where everyone shakes hands. Immediately afterwards I have a strong urge to wash my hands, and try to remember to bring the antiseptic wipes. It is not healthy, but here's my main issue (As Jane Velez-Mitchell would say) I always thought that women should not shake hands. To me it is just a manly thing to do, and just t ...

Is anyone else doing VR beginning to have problems with your hands? I started VR about 6 months ago, have been doing transcription for 30 years, but the last month my right hand and up my inner arm from wrist to elbow has been absolutely killing me, painful all the time and now I cannot even hardly hold a pen and write without causing more pain. Went to the doctor today and he says it is from the repetitive motion, stretching from the main keyboard to the up/down arrow keys and comma ...

I have been editing for the last few years and just got a new account that I was really looking forward to because it is straight transcription for now....but my hands are so sore and uncoordinated halfway through my shift I can barely make it I would go on a split shift if they would let me. Any suggestions for sore hands. ...

Who will be watching the so-called president on TV tonight for his latest round of promises and lies? Not me. ...

I'm a recently graduated newbie and hoping to get a job soon. My question for you experience MTs out there is how do you keep your wrists and hands from hurting from the hours of typing? Is it all in the ergonomics? If so, how do you sit & keep your hands up? Should I get a wrist brace or an ice pack? Any suggestions?? ...

Time to break the silence on Saturday's GOP debate. This article was published in the Telegraph. IMO, GOP foreign policy debate sank to slightly below the national disgrace level. Republican hopefuls would go to war with Iran Mitt Romney, the favourite to clinch the party's candidacy, said that he would direct US forces to pre-emptively strike Iran's nuclear facilities if "crippling sanctions" failed to block their ambitions. "If all else fails, if after ...

When you are talking with your family and freinds do you talk with your hands (move them around to illustrate what you are saying). My DH does. In fact I don't think he can't, and there are times where he'll say to me "are you watching" and he wants me to watch his hands. Sometimes I have to stop myself from laughing. I on the other hand do NOT talk with my hands. I tried it once and it felt very unatural. On top of that DH asked me wha ...

I'm in my mid-30s and have been MTing for about 5 years now. I've noticed for the past 6 months or so that I can excruciating pain in my knuckles and hands in general for about a week or few days leading up to my period. It is the worst at this time but present to a lesser extent pretty much all the time. I can't go crazy typing anymore and have to pace myself. Has anyone else experienced this? Any suggestions for dealing with it? I've tried ibuprofen, but it doesn't rea ...
