Hey, Janiece, like I said, I'm sitll confused about this site, so I'm trying to visit it once a day when I have the time.  I looked under "Chat" and saw that Kelly Combs made a mention of the court reporting site closing after the first of the year.  Do you know what she means?  I really enjoy posting questions and seeing the repsonses to them.  Let me know what you know.

Thanks bunches,

 

 

Hi, Janiece,

This is so foreign to me, so forgive me if I look crazy on this site.  Hopefully I'll figure it out quickly.  I like it, though.  I left a question yesterday, and got some responses.  I left one today, so I'll see what happens.  But as far as forums, groups, blogs, that's confusing to me still.

Hey, Janiece

 

Thought I would send you a message from the site so you could see there is not a problem this morning.  Maybe on your end. 

Me too.  I just have to really make a conscious effort to try to hit the asterisk key, and that's a royal pain, because when the testimony is fast, well, I just misstroked.  Other than this issue, the writer is great.  I love the light touch, and I can write all day and pretty much not tire at all.

Hi, Janiece.  I didn't want to clutter up that group with chatter, so I will respond to your writer question here.  I don't know if you saw the photo I posted in my discussion about the writer, but my sales guy said he would talk to their development team and see if they could make me a double-wide asterisk.  I said that would just make the key wider to the left, which would not resolve the issue.  He said he's looking into if they could make it double-wide to the right and not interfere with other stuff.  I suggested the put the wide -DZ keys as my -FR keys, but he didn't say anything about that.  He said he'll contact me when he finds out.  I'm still waiting to hear back from them.  In the meantime, the loaner is still sitting in its box.  I can't use it anyway; it doesn't have keypads!  :(

Hi, Janiece. Court reporting is hard enough, but add in realtime, fast speakers, technical material, witnesses with accents, lack of respect for the difficulty of what we do ... it's a wonder some reporters don't walk off the job mid-sentence! Thanks for listening to my vents, dear. Stay warm! Mary Ann

Congrats on your certification!!!

Hi, Janiece -
it's a program that is "sponsored" by NCRA. I think you can get a "test drive" to try it out.
