Have not moved around a lot
I have not jumped around a lot, worked for MRC when they were around years ago, then Medifax and Speris when it was Edix, now work for a small MTSO. Am happy but no benefits, no incentive, get paid the same as a new hire just out of school, kind of depressing.
Ask to be moved to something else...
I have heard the same thing about BeyondTXT. It seems like two different worlds.
how have you moved on if you are here....try
nm
I have moved on
and kept looking for other employment, but I didn't know if I needed to email her officially quitting or what (how ridiculous after all this time...).  I signed an IC contract, so I didn't know if that means I'm bound to anything.  I don't know how this works!!  Anyway, I'll just let it go and continue moving on - thank you everyone for the replies!! 
I do believe they all moved now.

Yes, she moved

out of state of Alabama.


Wow...you just moved yourself to the top...
of many people's NO WAY list.

Oh, and your confidentiality disclaimer probably doesn't stop her from distributing if she was the intended recipient.


Mine was moved to an IRA and then
I just moved it to my new company from there when I became eligible to get one from the new place.  Wasn't a problem at all.
If you have moved on, why are you still on this board? nm
mm
I think she moved from Alabama, not sure...nm
xxxxx
just moved SS to the top of my list
If the word lie or liar was never implied, then what exactly did you mean when you wrote this in your earlier post:

Your original posting was filled with untruths

What exactly were you implying when you wrote that?


When I was there they ran out on all shifts, so I moved on. NM

Would this be DSG? Certainly what I noticed with the DQS software there. I moved on. nm
n
Wow! That's great....I think I just moved Amphion

to the top of my list!  Thanks!! 


They recently moved to another office.
One of my friends who was recently hired was about to train, but that did not push through as the network was still quite down and the telephone line changed.

I have been working with them for almost two months now.

At first I had lots of files to work on (thanks to a new account they recently just acquired). Nowadays, they are a-trickling! Maybe I should ask for another account.
I have friends who used to work for FN and moved on. sm
FN has more than their share of ESLs and you very well know it.  You are not only snippy, as someone said, you are condescending and misleading. 
This is not true. This thread was moved. (SM)
This thread belongs on the Company board and it was moved. However, in moving messages all replies are automatically deleted by the software.

Goldbird
I know of someone that had a very negative experience with them and moved on right away. nm
s
It's a shame when a post gets moved
to another board/correct board - that posts made to it in the meantime are lost.  I've seen good replies lost that way. :(
You moved me from the main, to here, now I'm Lost! NM
nm
Is it possible your posts were moved to a different board? nm
x
Actually now these posts have moved to the top 1/2 of page
s
It just means it was moved to the appropriate board. nm

I actually moved the monitor closer
.
I moved to Transtech and couldn't be
:)
We don't have the pool any longer- we moved

A Mexican family.  So, I'm not paying for anything.  The pool installers were American and lazy, broke the filter, and took all day and night and brought theird kids to play on my swing set and requested soda.  The Mexican landscapers required no water, did not ask to use my toilet, and were done in one-half day with a lot of digging and a lot of stone work that would have taken a lot longer if they didn't work as hard as they did in the blazing sun.  The American installers did nothing but cuss, moan, and complain about the heat. 


As far as healthcare, we'll be paying more anyway once Hillary gives everyone who can't afford healthcare, free healthcare.  Too bad, Americans are too lazy to work harder and smarter.  I'm all American, born and raised, and I work very hard, but hey if the foreign entity comes along (like it did on my hospital job) and says they can do it cheaper, then what can I do?


Mine experience was the same..so I moved on...
nm
Alltype moved all account to VR

Unless Oschner moved to Bangalore, no.. that is not the case.

I just do it as a second job so I don't get rusty. I've moved on to a completely different car
x
Yes to Shorthand. I transfered mine when I moved over to KS from MQ. nm

Yes..it is the same person/company. Guess they moved

There is a lot of negatives in the archives, moving to another state doesn't change that.


 


Wow, that's awful! I recently moved to another state and they have a WF here sm
and I had thought of opening an account there, thinking it was a big national bank and might be the best bet -- thanks for the heads up!  I certainly do not need those kinds of headaches. 
I think that really does explain it! I bet those accounts will be moved by December though. nm
nm
I am happy for you that your accounts have not been moved to Beyondtxt yet! sm
I will be interested to here your opinion of the software when they are moved over in a few months.
I moved this post to the Company board. NM

Keystrokes BOUGHT an office rather than renting, moved
less than 20 miles away, kept the same phone number and sent out the address changes after settled in. What is wrong with that? Do we need to keep everyone in on every detail? If so, I should tell you that we added 14 phone lines to the dictation system.

Management has only added people and changed TWO in FOUR years. What company, in and out of transcription, has the same management team in place forever? People move on to other companies, other careers, take time off, etc.

No wonder the owners tell us all just to ignore the boards; some of the posts are ridiculous.

Just as an aside so you know the proper terminology, a transcriber is a machine; transcriptionists are the humans.
Not anymore. I think the nuts have moved on and the owner is less stressed now. I see a sm
a much calmer atmosphere this time around. I've been back just over a year and it is night and day from four years ago.
Must be MDI-FL. Has its moments. Either too much work or not enough. No happy medium there. Moved on
No thanks.
I moved MANY times, but it was because I was single and on a budget, not because I was irresponsible
I lived in 5 different addresses in 4 years. If my rent went up, I moved. If my roommates and I couldn't get along, I moved. When the apartment had a pervy landlord, I moved. There were very valid reasons for not keeping the same addy, and they had NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with my responsbility. Then again, I had the same job throughout that whole time, which any recruiter would see from my RESUME that I gave them. No need to go nosing into my credit hx.
No, they built a new one last year and moved into it in October or November. sm
I think they have a really big office now, from what I heard.

Several reasons
They don't pay extra to work on holidays. There is no shift differential. They send the good jobs to India. You have to work like a horse to make any money. They can't keep a QA manager. I don't know what all is up but didn't stick around to find out. I'll stop at that.
I think you are right. I think there are other reasons, as well. SM
I think they see MTs with loads of experience and they just get it in their heads to show them up.  I do agree.   If it is a great job, stick with it, smile and write happy happy e-mails.   They don't hear what we mutter under our breaths!
Maybe she is here for other reasons such as
keeping up on the industry, seeing what other companies do right or wrong, seeing what the hot topics are in MT-World, learning about new technology.

Give me a break. I have no idea who this woman is but as someone who has been falsely accused of the same thing in the past, I feel for her.

There is so much ugliness and pettiness and overall negativity on this board that the reasons for reading it have changed for me. I now read it like looking at gossip rags in line at the grocery store ... interesting and entertaining but probably less than 10% true.


That is one of the reasons I'm still SM
where I am. The operative reports usually go to people who have been there a while. I know, because I had to work my way up and it wasn't easy.

Some companies might hire you for just ops, but there are some like yourself, who don't want to do anything else and don't like sharing! :)

My concession is doing preops. Then I do the same patient's op report!

Ask to try that, ops plus preops, maybe H&P. Just as long as no discharge summaries.
Yes, you are right, mainly for tax reasons if you are an IC nm
XX
Same here for the same reasons..sm
Hands down I prefer a small MTSO. I can actually earn a real paycheck with a small MTSO. Same reasons. No large pools. These are ridiculous. How in haytees do they expect us to keep up? Good luck! :) No much in way of bennies, but I learned a long time ago you can do just as well with your independent health insurance. THis was my case anyway.
Two reasons.

1.  I'm sure Linda would appreciate you not sharing her client information, not that I give a hoot about what she thinks really.


2.  It is against the TOS of this site to do so.


A few reasons....

First and foremost lack of work consistently.  I know that everyone is slow now, blah, blah.  But this isn't the only time it has happened.  Then, the fact that they are hiring currently is annoying.  My supe constantly puts OT out for my account and just can't seem to understand why the next week we have no work!  Finally, I have asked more than 4 times for a secondary and have yet to get one.  I am told that I will get one of these new accounts coming on everytime, and then the time comes and I don't get that as my secondary.  Since my primary is one of the company's biggest - they don't like to give many of us secondaries so we can concentrate just on the primary!  However, my options of other companies are limited.  I need a company to provide a computer and has semi-flexible schedules.  A sign-on bonus would be nice too!


Three reasons
1. Most of their MTs are newbies. They have a newbie mentoring program.
2. They skim nearly 20% off line counts to allow for headers regardless of header size. You can type for a full 8 hours and barely break 1000 sometimes.
3. With their new holiday policies and management and QA revolving door, the MTs are a revolving door as well and they are doing everything in their power to entice new MTs. When 2 managers and 1 trainer go back to MTing in a matter of months there is a problem.
Add this to my reasons s/m
for getting out of the MT business.  They do not like for the MTs to communicate.  Wonder why that is?  We're suppose to be team players but we don't know what team we're on much less who our team mates are.
