Actually that's sounds like something the company bully would say.

They let other personal issues bleed into their work environment and feel they have the right to bully all the MTs they can, because they want everyone to be as miserable as them. There is no room for rudeness to anyone by anyone. Thankfully I work at a company that would never tolerate that bad attitude and people treat each other with respect. It is very refreshing.

Bully for you!
I have been at this type of work for over 20 years. I made more money in the 1980s than I do now. Think about it, people - I am making the same line rate I made in 1985. This is truly sad. The operator is right.
But what can we do? If we refuse to do the work, it will just be outsourced. We can't win at this point, I don't think.
Bully-be-gone
oo
Sure you're a bully
not because of what you say (which is true) but because of the way you say it (which is unkind and judgmental). I wish you a Merry Christmas and a happier day tomorrow.
I am not a bully. I'm simply trying to tell the OP
to do something about her situation instead of whining about it and posting on here that there is no work and looking for pity.
There are plenty of companies hiring. What's wrong with google? Ever heard of that?
Geez - try to help someone and you're called a bully, Grinch, and told to go away.
So what does the OP want? Because at this point, I'm clueless as to what she would expect with a post like that. Almost any company on here would kill for a 3rd shift MT.
I am not deceptive, nor am I a bully...
I interviewed with this company, but I did not test. With my years of experience, I was not required to test. I sent a resume, that took 30 seconds, they emailed, I read it, that took 30 seconds. They called me and told me about the position, that took 5. I am happy with my job, but it does not hurt anyone to keep their eyes open to the market and see if anything else is better. After learning about the company, I learned it was not better, so I declined. How is that destroying my credibility? Let me guess, you aren't even one that works mandatory weekends, you are just on here writing and bullying because that is how you get your kicks? Classic!
Sorry, but yeah you really are being a bully.x

If you think I'M a bully you're incredibly naive
There's nothing remotely bullying about my post. I stated my opinion. You post on here asking for opinions and I gave you one. It just wasn't the self-serving opinion you were seeking assuring you that you did the right thing.
Yes, perhaps you did the right thing for you by turning that job down; but if you're so happy where you're at, why are you wasting the time of MTSOs and perhaps pushing other MTs out of the running so they can spin their wheels with you? Also, about 98% of these posts on the job seekers board indicate when a weekend day will be required; you should have known going in when you applied apparently just out of curiosity that a weekend day would be required.
Sorry, but I'll leave you to your God and your family and your ability to pick and choose 'wonderful' job offers.
I'm just glad another MT will get a shot at this job who realizes people do indeed need reports transcribed on the weekend, and I certainly hope your God is on standby if a loved one ever needs a critical care transport and all reports transcribed and ready to go, because if the staff is a bunch of MTs refusing to work weekends, it could be a real inconvenience to have to wait until Monday for the official transcribed documents to be completed and faxed.
I'm done here...
It sounds like a new company that
since they want so many lines per day. NOT IC IN MY BOOK!! JMHO..... 
What company is using this? Sounds like something new here. nm
s
Sounds to me like this vulture of a company
and is trying to cash in on the goods! Don't do it! Just when you thought people couldn't sink any lower....like the Heartland scum......you get vultures trying to take advantage of someone and kick them while they're down....makes me sick!!!!!!!!!!!
This sounds like the company I just left!
I wonder if the MTSO has changed the name of the company? If it is the same company, I think you are wise to drop them and do it ASAP.
Sounds like a horrible company to me
They pay 5 cpl, charge you if you send reports to QA, and only pay once a month. Also, someone posted an article about the owner below that was in BusinessWeek. It states how much debt she is in cuz she's not aggressive about making sure her clients pay her. Also, she charges 12 cpl, but then only pays the MTs 5???!!! Why would anyone work for a company like that?
That sounds like my last company...I have a better home now,
But I am more and more afraid of how long that will last with insurance and bills going up and wages staying the same or going down. Scary times.
Thta sounds like my company. They sm
don't want to pay overtime, yet they have to keep TAT.
I have a crazy picture of one company sending work over to another company!
(That's a joke, before anyone has a knipchin or anything, IT'S A JOKE.)
Sounds like you work at my company.
They never respond to calls or e-mails and, when they do, it shows they never understood the question or problem. LOL.
sounds like the company I worked for
Happened to me, too. By any chance, is this company located in Colorado?
The company sounds wonderful, by chance....
do you need a really dedicated Radiology MT????
Sounds like you work for the company/account
I do FT. I'm 17 hours short this week. Fortunately there is plenty of work today, my day off. I won't be able to get any overtime but hopefully I'll be able to make up most of those 17 hours.
Sounds like my company - starts with T, ends with D.
No work to be found.
Dang, sounds like we worked for the same company before!
I agree; I was scared to death to make a change, but the opportunity to work for KS just fell in my lap and after a rough (slow) start I can truly say I am glad to be working for them.
I was kind of impressed by the year-end survey, which came to me shortly after starting. I like that kind of proactive approach.
Sounds like the company I work for now. Horrible
it. The company in general is also very, very strict on QA, so there's never a relaxed minute as the newbie on the block, and the cliques! Its cruel. I feel like I'm in school again, getting left out and laughed at and even set up for failure. There is always someone calling out sick, etc., as you describe, and I am told I always have to be the one to cover due to seniority, or my lack of it. Its so upsetting that I'm just about to throw in the towel myself. I'm sorry I can't recommend anyone other than MQ QA, but I heard they are no longer hiring QA staff. They used to pay really, really well and the conditions were fine. Best of luck to you.
Disillusioned....Sue's description sounds like the company you just left
except for the rental fee, which they JUST changed recently, and even then it was higher than the one Sue quoted. I still say you got a much better deal with Amphion.
A company sounds strange because you didn't pass their test? SM
I LIKE working for a company that puts quality over everything else.
Sounds like a company I worked for. I did get paid in full but I sure know how you feel!
Can you post or email me just the initials of company and I'll let you know if this is the same one. It has happended to me by more than one company in my time as an MT
This company sounds great, but they don't accept satellite users. :(
Other than that, from what I can see, they provide equipment/software, etc. Sounds like a really great company. I would apply if they could look over the satellite situation. I have had no problems with three other companies using satellte.
Is Transliterator a recuiter for a company using VIaneta? Her post sounds like a commercial.
:}
sure sounds swell. Sounds like 2350 ln/day @ 4 cents/ln=$90./day
in order to figure how many line needs to be produced to make $500 per pay period. ie, how many lines an hour needed per 8 hour day --at your rate.
So say $450 a week would be $90 a day.
For example, if making 4 cents a line,need 2,250 lines a day, 281 an HOUR (to listen through and edit) to make this great wage of $90. a day FOR ALL THIS SAME SKILL, TO KEEP UPDATED WITH CHANGING MEDICAL COMMUNITY. nope Better at Jack-in-Box Pass it up.
well that sounds like a company problem, not a QA problem.
nm
Sounds like it and it sounds like you must tell them when they will be and no change them. Wonder
what you do when there is no work. Well, there will be a lot of problems with this whole plan if they dont get things straightened out with this no work situation.
Sounds like I'm the same age as you!

Sounds like she was trying to -sm
make you quit - probably because they overhired and have too many people. She probably thought she could bully you out the door and have one less person to have to deal with. I wonder if she treats others like that too.
I bet so. Sure sounds like them!!

Sounds like
MedQuist
SM - Sounds like you...
must know this owner pretty well to be bashing him this way. How is it you have come to such an opinion? Did you work in an office with him? I would be very anxious to hear more of your scholarly declarations such as the answer to ending world hunger and obtaining world peace? Please, tell us more oh "wise" one....
exactly what I was trying to say! It sounds like they sm
are on the right track! Good luck to them.
That sounds exactly like OSi.

sounds like mq
There is always someone telling everyone what excellent accounts they have, perfect sound, TONS of work....hmmmm....well, I guess it's nice that SOMEBODY is going to be able to pay the rent cause it sure ain't me.
Sounds about right, maybe even a little low. nm
nm
Sounds low to me (sm)
 I made $3.00 page several years ago. With wages lowering each and every day for the MTs, maybe someone else would like to share their thoughts. Good luck!
It sounds like they are not
very technical-savvy if they need MTs to come in for training! I'd be looking elsewhere.
They can only say no, but it sounds like they can't...
...afford to lose you. YOU are in the catbird seat. Ask for the raise. Really. Do it, and best of luck.
Sounds like BTS in MA. sm
They will take 6 weeks to send you a paycheck for 2 weeks pay, trim 30% off your line counts to supposedly cover headers/footers, and stiff you for your last check if you leave. Leave while you are ahead if it is them.
wow. Sounds like you been there, done that. Thanks for
This sounds like a

Sounds like she might need some

Sounds like a really nice gift. Mine must have gotten lost in the mail LOL
Sounds like
it might be what they call a vacation -- I wouldn't know really though, haven't had one in so long.
Sounds like...
the company I work for now meets those criteria. Email me if you'd like.
This sounds exactly like the what the
well trained office staff is supposed to say to negativity about the company. I worked for TC for awhile and learned the ins and outs. If you don't mind being overworked, underpaid, all the cherrypicking going on and don't question anything then this is a great company to work for. Not to mention if you are on the CEOs good side and work in the office you get paid trips to Disneyland for your whole family, and can give the MTs as much grief as you want and nothing is said. But if you do mind all this stuff, then as the first poster said run as fast as you can.
Sounds like....
.....Focus
OMG! Sounds just like MQ! lol
