ATTACK?

Jeez, I was not trying to attack you or even be mean in replying to your dilemma, but it seems you attack or berate most everyone that has replied for different reasons. Calm down and take a breath! All our experiences are not the same with every company and that's ALL I was trying to point out for gosh's sake. There's no need to be SO defensive ~ just like some of the other posters have stated, get over this and move on! I'm sorry I've had such a good experience with Landmark and you have not, but I suppose it's the luck of the draw. Perhaps if you get hired by another company you might have a better experience.

Yeah, go on, attack each other. That's what got us into this

Attack of the TransTech clones.

That's pretty far from a personal attack.... have you seen
what they do to 'Gourdpainter' on here? But whatever...
So it is ok to attack a company once you leave as long as
you do not hurt your paycheck while working for them? That is childish and immature. We are supposed to be professionals. If there is a true problem, an MT should post about it but the unnecessary nastiness on this board goes above and beyond any sense of reason.
Instead of actual warnings, these bashers take it to extremes that make others ignore their constant nastiness.
This did seem like a personal attack on Rita Smith. (sm)
I don't blame her for replying and I actually think she did so with more tact than I would have under the circumstances.
I used to work for YOG and Rita and April as well as many other FN employees were old Yoggers. COuldn't have asked for a nicer bunch of people.
Sometimes you simply get what you give.
This board is not to attack people by name. Please read about Keystrokes. sm
attack people by name. In Lee's defense, she has over 200 people working for Keystrokes now and accounts in a lot of different states. As managers, we have started taking on more of the day-to-day and HR and the clerical staff take care of the transcriptionists. It is a hard thing to learn as an entrepreneur but delegating is very important. We are finally seeing her do this, and things are much smoother. One person simply cannot do it all in a company of this size. I wouldn't want to own my own company for that reason. The hours she works would kill me and I would be divorced. The constant travel of this year would cause most people to take days off after each trip, but I have talked to her hours after she got in from a one-day trip for a meeting to sign a contract and while tired, she is still out there making sure that our jobs are secure.
No one was out to get you or to mess up your life. I am sure that there is more to the story than you are saying but I find it hard to believe that you were ignored. I personally talk to each person hired for one of my accounts and make sure that they have all that they need.
If you came during a hectic time and felt you were not treated fairly, on behalf of the company, I apologize. However, and this is not an excuse, with the growth that Keystrokes has experienced, there are bound to be hectic times and bound to be changes. I, for one, am glad that the changes make Keystrokes a better place to work. I hope that someday Keystrokes replaces MQ and Spheris at the top of the national companies and know that if they do not, it is because they refuse to compromise and hurt the transcriptionists.
Life is about choices. Mine has worked well for me. We should all help each other rather than carry around so much negativity.
Why personally attack this poster? That is just plain wrong.
Every post I read by her is good-natured. The only people taking things wrong are the ones listening to the green-eyed monster. IMHO.
Got Norton message of computer attack blocked when going here.

I am not slow, and there is no reason to attack me. Simple math says that if you sm
can type 300 lines per hour @ 9-10 cpl versus 6.5 cpl, which place would you go? If you cannot figure THAT one out, perhaps it is not me who is slow.
What happened to giving a person the "benefit of the doubt" before an attack? sm
Especially on a message board where all we have to go by is black and white text. Without the benefits of facial expressions, body language, or tone of voice, the meaning is totally lost, regardless of how benign it may have been. If what I read rubs me the wrong way, I at least ask the poster. It only takes a minute or two and can prevent hours of board wars.
