Don't you mean, 'Buddy, can you spare 0.0975 cents?'

If we're a dime a dozen, companies like OSi are certainly a dime a dozen...sm
Easy come, easy go. I quit OSi and had 4 jobs within 3 weeks. Just had to choose. Rest assured, if the company I'm with now tries any of the ridiculous crap OSi pulled, on the road again I will be!
If I had the money for an attorney, I too would be filing a law suit, rest assured! This company gives Douglasville, Georgia a bad name and really should go to hicksville Carrollton where it belongs!
Oh, spare me the theatrics!
You have the power to change your work situation. You can make a phone call to be put on a different account. You can quit your job and find one with a platform and workload that suits you. In the meantime, don't begrudge management for what few little perks they may get. What kind of person are you to do that? I'm sure they worked hard for it. It's not like a day at a local spa even compares to the MT convention in Hawaii or whatever it was.
As for finding a lump, thank you, I've already had that happen this year on top of everything else I've been through. So thank you for mercilessly wishing it upon me. Your wish is granted. You know what it taught me? Life's too short to be miserable. Fix what you can and don't dwell on the rest of it. Put your stressors into perspective or you'll wind up sick from it. Or dead. I quit my lousy job to find something better. It's amazing how much better your entire life and outlook is when you take active steps to fix things that are not going right. You've got the power to do it.
For a business owner, you sure have a lot of spare time!
And quite the potty mouth. Poor bitter thing!
But not everyone has extra time to spare consistently, even at their
Again, I don't work for Amphion, but I could never work somewhere that wanted consistent OT. I deliver high-quality, high-production 40 hours, and outside of that I still don't have enough hours in the day to devote to my non-MT life. Amphion would be a terrible match for me, but I'm glad there are others who can live up to the overtime demands.
I'm in that boat too - got a spare life vest?
Dime?
What do you mean, what do they ask for money for?
P&G forced my sister to stop selling Mary Kay in her spare time...gotta SM!
This was years ago way before P&G even owned Revlon. It's not like my sister wore a white coat and created cosmetic formulas. She was a RECEPTIONIST!!! The Suits at P&G told her to make a choice because they didn't need an employee working for the competition...Give me a break!
BTW, the ONLY reason my sister even sold the MK was so she could get it 1/2 price.
Whatever you do on YOUR time is YOUR business!! (As long as no laws are being broken or ppl getting hurt)IMO
I wasn't paid a dime to say that...
I wasn't paid a cent to say that. That is my own honest opinion/experience. I have an excellent supervisor who is extremely friendly and helpful. I never run out of work and I have never had to change accounts the entire year that I have been there. Their software is the best that I have ever worked with and I love it. My pay is always direct deposited on time and I have never had any problems. Even if they do outsource, I really don't care. It doesn't affect my job with them and it never has. I have plenty of work, get paid and an treated nicely. That's all I care about.
If TTS owes you a single dime do what I just did
Report TTS to wage/hour. It is time to put a stop to the tactics of this woman and her dumb as a post lackey.
These MTSOs are a dime a dozen....
I don't think it should be the other way around.  I'd say this company is not worth the time. JMO.
I'd move on - they are a dime a dozen
People just love to sit around and just take it, take it, and take it. You'd better find some other clients. You are an IC MT right? Get out there and find another MTSO or clients on your own. I wouldn't take that from no one.
If I had a dime for every CMT that I fired for quality issues.....
I'd have bought myself a few meals by now. Being a CMT doesn't mean you're a good transcriptionist. It just means you took the test and passed it. Over the years I've seen the majority of the better MTs were those that didn't have the CMT designation behind their name.
I just had 2 meds filled and never paid a dime.

Not an O but I guess they're dime/dozen. nm

Not a single DIME. We work for them, they're -
And $300 for a license fee? How do you spell S-C-A-M? My current company uploaded the necessary software from their computers to mine for FREE.
If that charge wasn't in the contract, talk to an attorney about it. I'd be willing to bet that what they did isn't legal.
Gad - they already gyp us in pay, and now they're 'double-dipping' by gypping us when we sign up? Absolutely incredible.
Its a thing of the past. Employees are a dime a dozen now, and
you are treated like dirt. The more layers of management that are added, the worse it gets, especially in this business, because they put these little control freaks with no experience other than raising a few kids in charge of things and they only know how to rule by holding a whip.
