You better believe it. If my employer tells me to type it a certain way I'm

going to do it without arguing with her, especially in a case like this.

I have to agree with Monika ... on my accounts, if the doctor spells it out

(and even says " capital X " ), then I type it that way - even if I KNOW it is

wrong.

I type for a breast surgeon who spells out " Her2neu " each time ... NOW, I

KNOW this is wrong, but who am I to call a breast surgeon wrong??? She can

be a bit moody besides, so I'll just type what she says and wait until she

corrects herself.

I certainly see your point and you are totally correct as per my sig line....

since most likely the doc is the one who proofs the report. It was never my

intention to criticize any MT for doing what their doctor wants, and I hope no

one took it that way. I simply was asking that if you could document to

your boss, whoever that is, that something is spelled a certain way, would they

accept it? If it was presented in a nonconfrontational way of course <grin>

In my case, however, I'm Q/Ad by auditors, and it's their final decision as to

how something should be typed and furthermore, their decision reflects on my

paycheck as to whether I make incentive or not or even have money taken away

from my base rate in some cases if there are many errors. I can challenge their

decision if I have proof, which is a good thing

On the other hand, I know there are students on this list who need to know what

is correct, in addition to needing to know that someday their bosses may ask

them to do it wrong.
