I used to believe that to be able to get good quality work in doing my medical transcription, I have to be typing way about 100 wpm without errors.  But after that, I started to be frustrated with what I can only achieve.  I am a medical transcriptionist but I can merely type between 35-40 wpm.  I used to not pass job applications because a number of companies require above 60 wpm or higher.  I keep in mind that at one time, I attained 50 wpm in one of my tests and I was very happy.  Although that was not achieved at a one-time test alone because I did that after several attempts; somehow I got used to what I was typing. I learned to type using the old fashioned type writer.  I then started to learn typing using the computer keyboard doing my undergraduate thesis in college.  I liked using the WordStar at that time.  I never did it the correct way.  I mean, I type not following the correct finger assignment.  Nowadays, fortunately there is Autocorrect in MS Word that I can take advanta...

Doing your work as the medical transcriptionist, computer desk exercises are a must do. Any type of stretching exercises can give significant benefits when done properly.

In these times, I almost forgot to do simple stretching so, after few days of like this, my body feels like stiff and tensed especially my ...
