No, actually they don't. You guys run on emotion, not fact. And when fact is presented,

What on earth does that mean??
But why on earth would QA want
an exclamation point in a letter or report? They just aren't used in medical reports or letters, and here the OP is saying they want one in every letter? Is this a foreign-owned company, maybe on the planet Pluto?
What on earth?
Why should she give it a rest?? If you see a post with Toth in the subject line, just don't read it. It's not like there's not room on the website for another post.
There are a thousand reasons why someone could have gotten sucked into a terrible situation. It doesn't mean they were obtuse or saw red flags & ignored them or behaved in some way irresponsibly, & it's rude to suggest otherwise.
I can't understand what you think you are going to get out of censuring and/or censoring her.
What on earth is the 100 number
an no one ever answers?
WHAT on earth are you talking about?
How did you get any of that from my post? Haven't you ever seen the jokes on TV about the hairy women from Russia or Germany? Or that French women don't shave their pits? Don't have TV or anything under that rock of yours? How does a jokingly exaggerated TV-induced generalization make me nonCaucasian? Or are you the racist here? You certainly were quick to blurt out muhbaby daddy there. WE were joking around. YOU need to take a nap.
eww, why on earth would you want to date.
And chances are you will find the person boring, annoying or unappealing. I don't see why people date on those sites, its so set up. Its better to meet by chance, more natural and less pressure. I'm in my early 30s and I see my friends either divorced or miserable in their marriages, same with my family. It gets old real fast, why not have something to look forward to, and use this time to figure out who you are, your passions, and the right person will be drawn to you to complement you, rather than being forced together because you feel like you should be in a couple. At this point I have my own life and forcing a relationship into it would make me irritable and obligated...BUT if in the process of living my life I happen upon someone who fits in there without me knowing it...meaning I can stand him there...well that would be a big bonus. No need for it, or want..been there done that...i'm old enough to know I want it on certain terms. In the meantime, i'll just hug my dog and cat way too much.
HELLO, EARTH TO AAMT nm
anyone?
Why on earth do I need to "calm down"? sm
If you don't agree with my opinion, advice, or life experiences... that's OK. And I don't have to agree with yours. The OP is free to read all of the responses and take away from it whatever she can. She can take everyone's advice, or she can not take any of the advice... that's her choice. I was simply offering her advice based on what my experience have been. And let's be brutally honest here... she's going to continue to get beaten, and her children be beaten, regardless of whether she instigates it or not. Tigers don't change their stripes.
But since you want her to just leave the next time it happens, what do you advise her to do for food and shelter for her and her children? She needs to make a plan, and stick to it, with the least possible upheaval for her kids' sake. If she wants to plan for it, and then just leave the next time it happens, that may work too. I'm certainly not going to knock that advice. But, please, don't just shoot down other people's experiences and advice. If you have some real advice or a real plan to share with her, feel free. But don't just offer the pat answer of "you need to leave"... it's obvious she knows that.
Where on Earth were you born?
I was born at Fort Leonardwood, Missouri - my papa was in the Army. How about you? 
what on earth does this post mean?
?
again - how on earth could you assume that I could not do your job with the same
education and training. Who is bashing?
What on earth is a flame war?
Are you referring to the flame next to posts on here? That just means they've been viewed a certain number of times.
14 Years here on Earth and in the USA
I write about a transcription process that you are not aware of and you assume I'm from Mars? What a leap. I'm curious as to how many years you've been in this field that you wouldn't know that this is the way it was done for many years. Believe it or not, there was even a time transcription was done on the typewriter - no headers, not even documents! Here. On Earth!
I don't feel the need to defend my credentials and citizenship on a message board, but I assure you, I had a successful career as an MT and MTSO since 1992 and my mom was in the field for a few years in the 80s. If you don't believe MT was routinely done that way (one doctor/one date/one document) you can ask some of the oldtimers on this board about it. I don't have time to go over the different stages of progression in MT.
Maybe I'm whining, but I came here for advice regarding this technological change (electronic medical record) that I'm having a hard time adjusting to. I'm feeling discouraged about re-entering this field because of this and the pay cut I've had to take. I'm asking for opinions - if others have had this problem, if they have gotten used to headers and can still get good production. Maybe I'll get used to it. Or maybe I'll find a job where they still do it the old-fashioned way - good luck with that....right? :)
What on Earth possessed you...
to initiate contact with these people? I read what others say on this board about companies, and if there are 2, 3, a half dozen complaints, I KNOW to steer clear of a company and tell others to, also. I trust the information I get here. There have been numerous complaints about this particular company on here! In fact, I have never, ever read any good feedback here on it, and just for that fact, and knowing from your first post that you know it, too....it makes me wonder what on Earth possessed you to begin this little experiment? There was nothing to gain from it whatsoever, you had no intentions of working for them, but now you have a psycho-stalker for your efforts. How did you think these people would be to deal with? One does not step in crap and not expect it to stink.
Why on earth would doctors
WANT to keep dictating in a lousy, ridiculous manner? Apparently many do, because they continue to do so when QA has to keep leaving blanks or asking for guidance.
I simply cannot understand this. I have one who will literally leave small phrases right out. What does he expect us to do with that?!!? 
How on earth do you make $10-$12
per hour getting paid 6 cpl part time?! What kind of account/s do you have and how many lph do you type?
Wish I could do the same!!
What on EARTH are you talking about??? sm
Please provide a reliable source for your Acusis 30% pay-cut info... or your *announcement* is similar to yelling FIRE! in a crowded building: If not exactly criminal, it's at the very least pot-stirring and mud-slinging and rabble-rousing.
What on earth is wrong with you people? sm
So this means that you don't give a rip who types YOUR and YOUR FAMILY'S medical reports or how badly it's done? That you just zip through the reports to get them done with and rack up those lines? Shame on you.
You know, all this bickering and fighting is because MT is paid "by the pound." Anytime people are paid strictly on production, this is the result. Not good for us, not good for patients.

Any ideas on where to find a c-phone for less?

"Peace on Earth" - Merry Christmas to
you, also :) John Lennon was human and made many mistakes, but his message was that of peace and love. No war! No hate! No prejudice! Sounds good to me! A blessed Christmas to all.

How could they NOT treat her? I mean, how on earth could the docs not 'touch her'?
Doesn't the physician on duty have an obligation to treat the patient? It'd be a greater lawsuit potential if they refused to treat her and she worsened or died. That doesn't make sense that they could chose not to treat her. It probably is stated as a complication but those can't really hold up in court. The possible complications list practically anything that could happen, including death, but that doesn't mean that if a person is injured or dies from surgery that the physician is absolved of any wrongdoing if they messed it up. I hope and pray she recovers fully.
Back when dinosaurs roamed the earth sm
And I learned the rules of grammar, we were taught that the period should always go OUTSIDE the quotation marks if the quotation marks surrounded only a few words and not the majority of the sentence.
I'm just saying.....
OK, I'll bite -what on earth does the East Coast have to do with it?
Please enlighten me!

Why on earth do people let their animals roam free?
Never have understood this!
not just the fact of being PT, but sm
she claims to work two jobs! Who has that much time. I don't believe it's physically possible to work that much, but that's just IMHO, of course!
I don't do it all day either - in fact,
I worked around parts of Louisiana in hospitals as a Transcriptionist in the past! Now I come to NOLA to vacation. I'll be there for a few days in September and then again in October and then again maybe in November.
IT IS A FACT
The DocQmanage program has a page where the managers can select or deselect anything they want to be counted, i.e. spaces, letters, numbers, headers, footers, (a whole page full of things). BUT: The main thing is this - they can put whatever number they want in there as a DIVISOR to divide the number of characters by; and the characters are almost always not counted correctly because they have selected to "not count" spaces, headers, footers, numbers, etc, etc. THEY ARE CROOKS.
Its a fact - CM
Hi CM - can you e-mail me? thanks.
IT IS A FACT
They did not tell us this, as far as the F9. I just checked it and you are absolutely right. They told us where we could find our line count. What a bunch of BS. Do you happen to know if every company has their own "computations" to reduce line counts? How sad this is :<
Oh, I'm with you there. In fact, I
if anyone ever feels like just giving up on EVERYBODY in their live and walking away and starting a new life with a clean slate? All my kids have already left home or are close to leaving home age. One is doing horribly in school and won't put any effort into it. One was a bitch on wheels this morning and is in trouble for underage drinking. One is doing better than the other 2 but just informed me it's going to take 2 more years to get through college (she's a junior now) and we can't afford another year. And DH wet the bed last night and I am just beside myself. The only time he has ever done that is when he was drinking. He swears he hasn't been drinking (he's an alcoholic). Yah right. I feel like I am the only one who halfway has it together.
And financially - let's not even go there.
I feel like taking the cat and driving off into the sunset and never coming back.
They are asking how you know this for a fact?
It was a big stink on another board some time ago about how people claim to know things FOR A FACT.
Yes, and let's not get into the fact that most sm
daycares all over the country are "state regulated" not state-run, but receive millions of dollars a year from moms and dads who get their childcare paid for by the state (our tax dollars) so that they could work out of the home.
When people gripe about us moms who stay at home with our children they should be glad that we are working AND taking care of our children and not depending on the state or grandma to do it!!!
was the fact that she was gone even
Was an explanation given as to where she was and if she'd be back? I don't watch that show, all those women grate on my nerves, but I am curious as to know if they even broached the subject of the missing Star! (She's so tacky...tried to get her whole wedding for free, puhleeze...)!!!
no that's not a fact
I've been using AT&T CallVantage for about a year without a single problem. In fact, when I signed up I told the rep what I did and he said it was not a problem.
That was not me. In fact, I actually
and that is why I posted to the person who did that, letting that poster know that the original poster did not post twice. However, your message and placement of same sure did indicate that you were *speaking* to me.
do you know this for a fact?
nm
In fact, I may (sm)
email you when I get around to this, if you don't mind!
No, in fact
although I could originally connect to the VPN client, after a short while I could not. So I was disconnecting and reconnecting the router when I needed to do any work and now - for the red herring - I can't even use the wireless now. It doesn't recognize my modem.
As a matter of fact just today - I had been too busy to fool with it - I tried to get in touch with a really good tech support networking guy I used to know who knows transcriptionists. I am waiting for him to call me back. Hopefully I can bring him in to solve this mess. I will update you. I will say that other poster was right about the Belkin being about a thousand times easier to hook up than the Linksys, you wouldn't think there would be that much of a difference but it was so much simpler.
The fact is ...
no one even knows who we are, so it must be our own insecurities that allow us to be upset by those critical people.
I guess on top of that though, it is simply frustrating and hurtful that others want to lash out about such nonsense. The truth is, those people are probably upset about something in their own lives. It would be better for all of us (especially them) if they would look within a little bit more.
We'd all be better off if we spread a little more sunshine.
