In Reply to: Would it kill a doctor to.... - ugghh
And the planet might fall out of orbit too.
I once had to tell a doctor that I'd only been to Ireland once, and thus didn't know any of the same people over there that he did, so when he was writing letters to them and mentioning other people's names (all with the accent of course) I had NO clue who he was talking about.... Somehow, that was an odd concept to him. Doesn't everybody know all the same people in Ireland??

Yes, as a matter of fact, I did and I do.

as a matter of fact, ...
I have worked as an I.C. and have had my own business for the last 15+ years and presently charge 14 cents a line. I have made a very nice living, thank you very much. But recently, thanks to all the outsourcing, the work I might have prevously gotten is now being sent elsewhere at 3 and 5 cents a line. So I am now forced to seek additional work with nationals. Believe me, I am aware of making a profit but at the same time I paid my subcontractors 9 cents because they were worth every penny. I am not going to spend the day arguing with anyone. I just wanted to make a statement that MTs are NOT being paid what they are worth and they should take a stand and fight for that! Until they do, they will continue to get paid a meager rate.
As a matter of fact
I started taking the medication because I told the doctor that working afternoons was nearly impossible for me, as I constantly needed to nap for at least a couple of hours. Since I started taking the medication I don't feel the need to nap and I can also stay more focused and less inclined to be distracted but things.I'm currently on 300 mg, which is the maximum dosage, and I take it around 10 a.m. every day, including weekends.
For me, it's a wonderful drug.

first round of resumes went out last night 
That bugs me, too, as a matter of fact....(sm)
About 20 years ago, our new director introduced herself to the transcription department by asking, "How many transcribers do we have?" Without hesitating, I replied, "One for every Transcriptionist and two backups" :O
As a matter of fact, I just heard of that last week.
I must be in a bubble. That was only the second time I heard that and I had to ask my girlfriend what she meant by that. Can you tell I work a lot and am always running with my teens. I don't get out much or watch television, so I really didn't know what metrosexual meant until just recently.
Yeah, as a matter of fact, for the last 12 years SM
one kid or the other. LOL.
Just kidding, mine are pretty good, but that daughter of mine, OY!
Yes I have as a matter of fact, one ringy dingy. LOL sm
"And gracious good afternoon and whom is the party to whom I am speaking?"
Gosh girl, you're going to give our age away. I loved Lily Tomlin as the operator!
We had this old broad at a hospital I worked at that could not say 9. She had to Shout NIYAN, which was the code for call the switchboard operater. All day long it was Dr. Smith please call NIYAN. Dr. Smith call NIYAN please. God forbid if Dr. Smith didn't answer the NIYAN page. We all called her "Lily" behind her back.
But in answer to your question, I did have one dictator (from 1500 miles away from me) yell as he was upset because the phone kept falling off the wall and he said, "Operator, this dam phone keeps falling off. I've asked you to fix it at least a dozen times. I wish you would finally do something and get your company to come in and fix it."
It was just too funny. I did email my super about it. I have had the same guy many times since, so I guess they must have sent an "operator" in to "fix it."
A lot of neurologists indicate this as a matter of fact. In can be important
in certain cases, i.e., if they have to change bandages, adminster their own medications/injections, etc., if something is wrong with the other extremity. In the case of a CVA/TIA it is very important.
I do not think think her postings are 'preachy'. They are just matter of fact...
without the input of 'unnecessary' emotions.
No, actually they don't. You guys run on emotion, not fact. And when fact is presented,

Doesn't matter, IF you are not paid an hourly wage, i.e. a set amount no matter - sm
how much or how little you type, say $12.00/hour, you do not get OT. As someone mentioned here, certain jobs are exempt, and as most of us are paid a flat rate of .08 cpl or .09 or .10, whatever it is, that is all we get regardless of how many hours under or over 40 hours we go. If you want OT then go get an in-house job or get a job doing something else.
Sometimes they just kill me!

Hmmmmm???
Anyone know how to kill
these little boogers? I have some at my house, my feline might have had 1 for lunch and they are poisonous to kitties- any ideas? Looked on the internet but could not find anything definite. Thanks!
you people kill me! (sm)
give the woman a break, already! HER CHILD IS MISSING IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY! I'm sure she's not in her usual state of mind. Instead of running her in the ground, all this energy should be spent on positive thoughts and prayers for the family and for Natalee. They need support, not condemnation. Prayer is a mighty thing, give it a try!
That which does not kill you, will only make you

Would it kill a doctor to....
Actually just spell out a name of a random physician that they include in their report? I mean, for the company I work for, we have to search physician registries and such to FIND physician names. Now, if the hospital is in Alabama and the doctor just throws it out there and says......"She once saw Dr. XXXXX in Toledo, Ohio", I mean come on now, PUH-LEASE just spell Dr. XXXXX's name for me! It will take you TWO SECONDS to do so and it takes me way too many minutes to search around and try to find this dude's name!
Not trying to be Miss Complainey Pants today, LOL, but sometimes you just gotta vent!
not kill any living thing?
oH, what about the plants? are they not living? some worship them too...and NO. I will not leave my God out of anything. My God is in me and I in Him. I will not try to separate one from the other. Sorry if my faith bothers you.
LOL! And stress will kill you or make you
now have some incurable, difficult to treat, chronic, crippling, painful disease brought on by stress!
Please take her to a "No-Kill" Shelter!
Otherwise, the animals are usually put down after only a week and 1 week really isn't long enough to get the dog adopted. So Please only bring the dog to a "no-kill" shelter! 
Hope they don't kill off Tony!!!

If I gave that recipe out, he'd kill me....but....
no body lives forever, right? ;) My son makes three 8-inch round cake layers, cuts off the tops to make them all flat then cuts each layer in half (using a piano wire--very culinary :). The rasp. filling from scratch takes forever, but a quick alternative is to heat rasp. jelly on low and add regular nonflavored brandy. Heat stirring constantly until it thickens a little and is spreadable. This should not take very long at all (heating too high for too long will turn it into hard candy when it cools). Spread between the cake layers. The genache is just white chocolate, butter and heavy cream. My son goes by what the stuff looks like with regards to how much of each he needs, but I'll bet you can find a recipe on epicurious. com or the like. I know this is not exact, but hope it helps a little.
Okay then, should you kill every animal that scares you be it a dog or - sm
or a cat....does not make sense. They are animals, they just want to be left alone. Some people scare me sometimes, should I go out and shoot them? People need to be a bit more tolerant. I am not a huge fan of snakes either but I will never understand the killing of any animal unless it is for food or if the animal attacks.
so in other words, kill everything that is causing--sm
an epidemic. What about HIV and other diseases? Kill them too?
Yes - cold does kill fleas
it's called WINTER not air conditioning........ROFLMAO! Are you for real?
Didn't that unmatched SS kill ya? nm

Hey, I've done that before and they didn't kill me.
I told my boss right away what I did and apologized. I still have my job.
some jerk wanted to kill my pigeons
I have lots of doves, regular birds (sparrows, finches, you name it) and pigeons frequent my property cause I put bird seed down. I had some guy come by last winter and ask if he could pay me to catch the pigeons so they could kill them and eat them..I said, honey, I love animals and there is no way Im gonna let you come here and kill my pigeons..you are talking to the wrong person, LOL..
Try to get you old job back, I'd kill for $500 a week after taxes- nm

Need to vent... (If you have time to kill, check it out!)
I am so frustrated right now I could just scream! If nobody even makes it to the end of this I will understand, but I'm just livid.
First of all, I was due my paycheck on the 15th. I work for a small MTSO, and our checks are frequently late at the end of the month. (The checks due the last day of the month usually get paid sometime during the first week. I'm used to that now.) But the paycheck on the 15th is consistently on time. Our mortgage is due on the 1st with a grace until the 15th. With the terrible economy and struggling like we tend to do, we usually pay on the 15th. We save half our checks from the 1st week of the month then pay the mortgage when we both get paid on the 15th so that we don't have to take the huge mortgage hit out of one paycheck but rather spread it out over two. (Hope that makes sense.) Well, I was told on Monday that we would PROBABLY be paid by FRIDAY, but that it's not for sure. Since I won't have my check, and we will be paying after the 15th, we will get a $75 late fee on our mortgage. Is it too much to expect to be paid ON TIME?
It gets better. The very next day after this news, my MTSO emailed me saying that a client was missing 5 patient reports. She kind of went "high and right" on me saying that she didn't have them, the client didn't have them, I didn't send them, where are they, etc. I was calm, knowing that I didn't make that mistake. I went back and found the files. I sent the files. I then went back and searched my email until I found the email that contained the missing files. I forwarded the email in its entirety, complete with headers showing the time and date it was sent, and put in the email what basically amounted to, "The original email contained 20 files, 7 of which were for other clients and 13 of which were from XYZ Ortho. Since the other clients never complained of missing files, and since XYZ Ortho isn't complaining about the other 8 files, I am confident that you sent the files on to XYZ Ortho and they just lost them." (Which this client has done over the last four years, losing files that have been sent and then blaming us.) I finished with, "I have forwarded the original email so that you can use this to show the client that the problem is not with their Transcriptionist - don't let them blame us!"
I graciously did not point out what I really wanted to point out, which was that I sent my boss the files like I do every morning. If the client lost their files, there is still no reason why my boss shouldn't have been able to pull them up from her computer!
The next day, however, I get a pissy email saying "I never got your original email. I searched my computer and I searched my computer and the files are not there. You will have to get a more reliable ISP, because I'm not getting your email.... " She went on to blame me for the problem in SPITE of the fact that I already pointed out that the problem could not possibly have been with me.
Now I'm really cheesed, because either she's just plain dense or she thinks I'm just plain dense. I wrote back reiterating that I just forwarded her the original email. She's only missing FIVE files. The original email contained TWENTY files for DIFFERENT clients (including one that is VERY picky about getting their files back in less than 24 hours -- if they hadn't gotten their files I would have heard about it weeks ago! ). I told her that why she can't find the five missing files on her computer or in her email is obviously a problem on HER end, but considering that my other clients aren't missing anything and the problem client is only missing a few of the files, the problem clearly is not with me. I sent the files. The files were recieved. What happened next, either with her or with the client, is not something I can control.
The next day I get an email that said, "Found the problem. Thanks."
WHAT? She accuses me of losing files, not sending files, put it on me and then when it's pointed out that she's the one who did something wrong there's no "Sorry I blamed you, it was my fault." I'm telling you, I am HOT. 
This on top of the fact that I'm not getting paid is the reason why I am currently interviewing for a work-primarily-from-home analyst position with a local company. I really expect professionalism, and this isn't it!
If you've made it this far, you deserve a hug.  Thanks for listening!
If you go to HBO they have chat area and someone predicted they will kill the characters off (sm)
one by one, and a few other predictions. I'm really going to miss this show. I guess the last one in August 21st. I will say that since all the TV companies seem to be ending the shows I watched the most, it'll make it easier for me to give up TV this fall, dang it.
Well, I gotta' tell you, if a living snake comes my way, I'm gonna kill him. nm

U love beta fish? Aren't those the ones that kill
I remember my exhusband always had Japanese beta fish when we were married. As I recall, if my memory serves me well, these specific male fish impregnate the female fish and then when she has the babies, the beta (male) squeezes all life out of the mom and kills her after she has the babies. Just the idea of this made me hate this type of fish 4ever.
Just one person's opinion though! No flaming please! *LOL*
It's CHINA for Pete's sake, where they still kill girl babies. Do you think
they have some sort of dog euthanasia patrol of paid government employees? Puhleeeze yourself.
For what reason would someone take a chance of breaking into someone's house to kill their 6-year
It was an inside job - Patsy did it.
Would it kill you people to give constructive advice instead of insults and insensitivity?!?
I understand your frustration. I think you just need to sit down and have a talk with your employer. Find out exactly what they want your status to be. As an employee, yes they do have the right to dictate your hours, where you work, etc., but they do not have the right to jerk you around. If they want you to work at home, then they need to provide for that, not you! Anyone who says otherwise is wrong! In any industry, if a company wants you to commute, they pay for gas/mileage. If they want you to have a cell phone/pager, they either pay for it, or they provide an allowance for it. If they want you to work at home, they provide equipment. It sounds to me like they want way too much and are giving very little. Just because a person/company is the employer, it does not give them the right to treat people like dirt, sending them on wild goose chases, interfering with their life, schedule, expenses, etc. I am sorry you have received such critical and insensitive comments. I hope this works out for you. Blessings!

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 :<
