I’m thinking of looking for a side gig that can be done from home and have read some things regarding medical transcribing. Has anyone here tried this and have thoughts on whether taking the training courses are worth it? Is it hard to get work once you complete the courses and get certified?

The course is really challenging, so make sure you're up for it. I didn't have any problem landing work once I got certified, but it's been awhile so I'm not sure what the market is like right now.

Hmm, maybe a legal transcriber would be better…

I haven't tried medical transcribing, but I have been thinking of getting into bookkeeping as a lucrative side gig.

Good Morning! I have an employee who’s been with us 6 weeks. Training process usually is about 8-12 weeks to be fully up to speed. This employee has already called off sick 4 days since start date. I have an am meeting block and came into 6 messages asking if this person would be working this weekend as planned, so I asked what the plan was from them. Immediate response was that I am abrasive and don’t make them feel valued. Keep in mind nothing medical was disclosed prior. What should I do?

What is the best objective source for determining whether to get the COVID 19 vaccine? Looking for sources and raw data and documentaries. I’m not looking for opinions I am looking for references to a variety of medical authorities. I have masked up this whole time but admittedly have not done any research other than what I heard in the news. So now I plan to approach this as an objective question to answer like I would any thoroughly researched legal question.

Happy Friday. Just a reminder of a few things:

- ADHD is a disability, but it’s not the end of the world
- give yourself a break. Your brain needs it more than you realize
- medication is not a cure-all treatment. Medication + diet + exercise + self-organization is the key.
- ADHD causes us to feel emotions stronger than the average person.
- failure is inevitable, but so is success. Act accordingly, and be kind and fair to yourself
- life is hard, but that’s… wait, what was I saying? 😂😎❤️
