I know better than to post this on their internal message board, as anything that is not 100% happy gets deleted.
This is the 2nd week in a row of technical issues on the client's end vs issues on our end, with the MTs caught in the middle, having to twiddle their thumbs during their scheduled shift, then give up their scheduled days off and work like mad playing catchup. I guess I just want to vent and commiserate . Anybody else in my boat?

Plus, they are always having technical
issues!! My PC goes down at least once a week and their word expansion program is the worst!!
I have never had a technical problem
with either the hardware or software thus far. I was out of work once for a few hours on my primary account, but was trained on one very similar to it until the primary was ready again. They have also apparently added two new accounts today. I am part-time (not management). However, I do acknowledge that not every place works for everyone, and no place is perfect. I had a one-month disaster at TRS last year after so many raved about them, 2004 AAMT employer of the year, etc. I'm happy with Amphion so far, but I fully support anyone's decision to leave a situation which isn't working for them.
Age has nothing to do with technical ability.
or lack of technical ability.
Why isn't there a Technical Forum here? Could use one - nm

Technical Question
Does anyone know if it is possible to run the Bayscribe platform for MDI-MD on the same computer as a platform used for a Keystrokes account (do not know the platform name yet)? Was thinking about trying them both but didn't know if this was possible. Also, if the tech from one company installs the platform and sees a platform for another company on the same computer, is that ever a problem? Any info appreciated.
Technical question
This job was posted in the Job Seeker's Board...I can't seem to be able to reply to message and no contact information was provided. Anybody have suggestions. I apologize if this was not the place to post this question. See below:

We are looking for someone who is in the Charlotte, Concord, Lake Norman general vicinity (or relatively close) for a remote Transcriptionist position (after a reasonable training period). Dictaphone platform, great benefits, good line rates, hospital employee status, extremely generous PTO, very few ESL's, and wonderful work environment. Prefer candidates within commuting distance for training, etc. E-mail for details and information on applying. We need to fill this position as soon as possible.
I believe the tax rate is the same for everyone in a certain class since you want to get technical a
You pay for your taxes at 100% if you are an IC but I dont think she was asking about taxes.
If you are single and have kids, then you usually pay no taxes or very little anyway unless you make over 30,000 a year.
Technical issues with the platform were horrible
It was slow a few times, never completely out, but I could never make any lines because of the technical issues with the platform.
This belongs on Technical board; thread locked.

Transolutions pays for technical and no-work downtimes.

lots of good technical things, but they outsource overseas
and a lot of their managers are from the old Edix, which is not a good thing, if you want to be treated with respect.
if you do not mind how you are treated, you can do okay. hard getting lines consistently.
my opinion. maybe things have changed, but I have read a lot of negative on here lately.
Dictaphone EX Text users. I have a question I need help with on Technical Board.. Thanks

support/technical dept is great. i use mine so i think that is just a personal choice and don't

Okay this is nuts
I just clicked on the post asking what post I was talking about, and a little hand shows up - - I'M NOT KIDDING!!!!
ARE YOU NUTS?
TAKE IT! If you don't, let the rest of us know WHERE that job is . . .
OK THIS IS NUTS.
I went to their website and emailed from there. I still got a message saying my email is undeliverable. I'm not wasting anymore time on this. I just wanted to find a good company for part-time work to supplement my full-time (lack of) work.
are you nuts? Documentation is not going to
go away. If anything else, it will increase due to sue-happy people.
I think you are all nuts (there is work)
nm
I would appreciate your not calling me **nuts**
I only got 5 hours during my scheduled shift yesterday and only 3 hours during my scheduled shift today, so I know for sure. No jobs.
Please know the entire story before posting such accusatory names as ***nuts***. My account has no work for me.
Yes, it drive me nuts too
I think I work for the same company as you!
You're nuts! nm
..
was it really 5,000 lines per day - that's nuts - nm

absolutely nuts for that pay
The job posting for 0.035/line should be removed from the site as a gross insult for the profession, though I feel that the 8 and 8.5 cents most companies pay now is also an insult! Too many MTSOs and mom/pop shops trying to take advantage of the newbies who don't know any better.
Driving me nuts!
OK, what WAS that from? I remember it, but can't put a face or name with it. Why do I want to think it's Opie from the Andy Griffith show (ok, I'm telling my age, but so are you) :)
That drives me nuts when they do that!!! sm
They say to please flex your time when work is low. Then they send out emails when things pick up and tell us we MUST be on NOW if we are short lines/hours. Yes, my life revolves around you TT! I love sitting at my computer 12 hours a day every day to accommodate YOU! arrggghhh.
All she can say is "Are you NUTS?" LOL. I'd ask. Can't hurt. SM
But did you mean 2000 lines/week or 2000 lines/day?
She did not even defend herself. She confirmed it. Nuts.
nm
Yeah, it was pretty nuts.

You're just plain nuts. nm

I'm sorry, but this whole thread is making me NUTS!!
You have a new job and nobody is interested in getting you started working. Somebody below has been waiting since DECEMBER? They are IGNORING YOU??? You have receipts that they are receiving your emails and IGNORING YOU, and you wonder if you should be concerned and others like you are sitting around waiting. ARE YOU CRAZY? And you are asking the public if you should be concerned? You are asking STRANGERS if you should be concerned that you have a new job that basically you don't have. This is just pure insanity and again workers like you, or nonworkers really, are what perpetuates the abuse we all receive from MTSOs. How insane is it to start a job and have no work? Would you start your first day at McDonald's and just stand there in the middle of the room if nobody helped you get started? NO. You'd get help from someone there, or you'd walk out. Why in the world you sit here in cyberland and wait is so beyond my realm of imagining that I just can't comprehend it. If you take this abuse, you deserve nothing. Its that pure and simple. Its ludicrous and its embarrassing even reading about it. Sorry.
This person is nuts. She does not know the owner, and if she did sm
she would know that she does not play slot machines. Ever. She goes to casinos a few times a year, not often, and WHO CARES WHAT SHE DOES WITH HER FREE TIME AND MONEY? I know her well and obviously this person does not. This person is obviously trying to hurt the reputation of someone who doesn't deserve to have her name ruined. The truth is that the owner works 7 days a week, more than 8 hours most days. That's why we all have enough work to keep us busy and why our benefits keep increasing and why we do not have pay cuts. Geesh. Personal attacks on someone's integrity. This board is getting worse and worse.
That must be driving you absolutely nuts.
Is it? Nuts. I have been searching all over for my contract, but I'm not sure
I ever got a signed copy back from D., though I specifically requested that she send a copy back to me with her signature on it as well.
Would you please email me. I have a few questions before I drive myself nuts with this. nm
:
I do all that for my animals and people call me nuts!
It just depends on what your priorities are I guess. Some people do that for kids, animals, a house, a car...if it makes you happy--go for it! That whole life it too short and all...
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.
6 cents a line for surgical reports for an ESL dictator? Are you NUTS??

What is Webmedx FL? Webmedx itself is located in Pittsburgh & Atlanta. nm

Webmedx ad apply at Webmedx or Transhealth ? (sm)
Apply to one address if you need equipment, another if you want to use your own? Does this mean they are still acting as 2 separate companies? Can anyone explain this?
Six accounts?!?! That is nuts! I am on 3 accounts. nm

Webmedx?? Why do you say Webmedx is foreign??
Nm.
Webmedx
Been with them 10 months. They are great. Fair. Great platform. Great pay. But, I have been doing this for 25 years, no idea how it is for newbies that need hand-holding. Though the trainers seem competent and willing, the little contact I had with them.
I like WebmedX very much.
Most important, pay is on time, direct deposit, and always correct. QA folks are very helpful without being condescending. They and the managers really do want you to do well and do whatever they can to help you achieve that. I am on a heavy ESL account and yet I find it quite easy to do as there are so many avenues of help with access to numerous samples and the ability to view transcribed records.
My experience has been quite good with this company. I can only speak for Webmedx as I have not worked for Medware.
WebMedX
Apparently, you don't really want opinions if you don't want to hear from "Bashers."
However, I have nothing bad to say - I have been there 8 mos. - come on board. They have great insurance. They provide you with a text Expander with your computer, and they pay on time everytime. My supervisor is probably the best I have ever had - I've been in this business for over 20 years.
WebMedX
Having worked for both and currently WebMedX, they're the best choice. They are a lot nicer and easier to deal with, their pay is better, their benefits are better, their scheduling is better. I honestly have had no complaints with them. Once Spheris went through their whole restructuring plan for pay and line counts, they went right down the tubes as far as caring about their employees instead of the almighty $$ for themselves, in my opinion (sort of like MQ is doing right now).
