    Great post!! Amen!! Bravo!!!!

    Bravo!!!!! Excellent post. 30 years here.
    I just wanted to be left alone so I could do my work. I came in on most calls to help out. Quality meant everything as did TAT. Did that matter to management? That I was not talkative on the telephone (Small talk eludes me for some reason) during chats with these people has cost me a fortune. And pretending to be someone I am not is just not something I am capable of though I must say I wish I could be a talkative person just so my personality would be more obvious in this so often unfair telecommunation job, where after all I have given, I am treated no better than a newbie, even with disrepect, biting e-mails by moody unprofessional management.
    Bravo! Great post. I left TT but I will always speak very highly of them.

    BRAVO!!! If I did not have to pay QA and could get everyone to
    type 200-250 lines an hour, I could pay more. QA and part-timers kill our rates.
    BRAVO!
    The last thing I want to do is interfere between an MT getting a job, OR an MTSO finding help.

    That said, the whole purpose of the board is to save fellow MTs from bad experience, and (are you listening MTSOs?) put some pressure on MTSOs are are 'not' doing the right thing to make corrections.

    How hard is it anyway to admit when you've made a mistake and correct it?!

    Good luck in your search. I learned a difficult, 'expensive' lesson with this company: Specifically ASK if 'your' payment is tied to their payment.



    Bravo for this! ... nm

    BRAVO FOR THIS!!!!! ...nm

    Here! Here! Bravo
    Very well stated. AHDI did sell us out and I, too, refuse to give them another of my hard-earned nickels.
    BRAVO!!!!!!!

    BRAVO BRAVO!!!!!

    Best thing I've read all day!  Let her try and respond to that. 


    to this I can only say: Bravo!....nm

    Bravo! Couldn't have said it better myself
    Never had a problem with MQ until DQS. I am chained to this desk from sun up to sun down just trying to make the line count. It was NOT like that before DQS - I actually made very good, but now I can barely get by. What is really disturbing to me is that it is obvious a very big problem to a large number of MTs, yet MQ turns a blind eye. I guess as long as the big dogs are getting their fair share, then they are not worried about who is actually keeping them in business - the MTs. Without us, where would they be??
    Well said, Wendy - Bravo


    Bravo!!! Hey Maggie......
    Can I come work for you??
    BRAVO! Absolutely right.
    2 types of trouble makers #1 the person who likes to start trouble just for fun and sits back and watch other people suffer as they fall for it. #2 The green eyed monster who cannot see something good happen, so needs to try to ruin things which obviously are good. Then, there is every one else, those who worry not and rely on truth not rumors, and the other who pays attention to the trouble makers. These type of people need to take a walk and calm down. Count to 10 before writing or reacting. Learn how to treat a reactive mentality by proactivity or meditation. IMHO. Rumors are just plain wrong. Word from the horse's mouth just plain right!
    Well, BRAVO and KUDOS!!!
    Well-put.

    In fact, SO well put I can't even add anything to it.

    I'll just say DITTO. :-)
    Bravo - you hit the nail on the head!
    I want one of those hourly paid positions they're offering now. I was on a good account, then they switched me to another hospital in that system - and it's AWFUL. And cherry picking GALORE!!! You can watch it happening right before your eyes! Totally absurd. I went from 250-300 lines an hour in training and right after, to 100-150 lines an hour now, if I'm lucky. Pitiful ... totally pitiful.
    Bravo! You are a smooth cookie!

    You have what it takes.  You are a fighter!  I think you'll survive and this is coming from an MT with 20 years in this business.  I am not an MTSO owner.  I service my own accounts and do my own work. 


    Everything you have said is so true.  I think that many forget how they got started in this business.  I also think that work-at-home Moms should be respected and not bullied.  I know where my place is in this business.  I know because I have the income to prove it.  However, I am also a mother, wife, sister, daughter, friend, etc.


    I have seen job ads that look as if my 8-year-old typed them up.  The normal course of action is an interview, a phone call if interested in hiring you, and then you take the job or you decline.  Then, comes the personal information. 


    I went to one site just to check it out, clicked on apply online, and the first question was social security # and this is the largest MT employer ever.  How can they ask for that to simply apply with all of this fraud that goes on today. 


     


    If that's the case, bravo for her for standing up
    for her beliefs. I took a stand on mine when I quit a former job. All the best to her if that's the case.
    I couldn't agree more!! Bravo!

    Bravo! You stated that perfectly! $50K for me, too!
    Then AHDI can call me and maybe we'll talk.
    Bravo - see there are true IC companies out there.

    Please realize fellow MTs that usually an IC works multiple accounts and that can mean multiple MTSOs.  You don't need to put all of your eggs in one basket.  If you are asked to work a set schedule which does not allow you to transcribe for other clients, then that's employee and you should be treated as such.  The IRS expects you to contract with more than one client or vendor; it just plain looks better since we are considered self-employed.


    A plumber doesn't always work for the Jones family, they do work for the Smith family and the restaurant down the street, etc., etc.


    Bravo! Your message should be typed and placed on
    But most importantly, of course, on the desk of every MT company CEO across America.

    Greed is NOT good. It's why our entire economy is in the mess it's in today.
    oops, long night should be BRAVO
    and who am I to post when my fingers feel dyslexic by now :)
    BRAVO, well spoken. (clapping and cheering) nm

    Bravo for you! Keep up the good work! You should be so proud! nm

    BRAVO!! I'm sure you're making lots of $$$s..sm
    But if you were like the rest of us peons who had to run back every few seconds of footage because you can't understand most of what the dictating clown is saying, whether ESL or native train-catcher or sleepwalker or can't-make-up-my-mind-what-I-want-to-say, Ah...Hmmmm...Scratch that!...Let's see, ..uh...where were we.. uh... zzzz (yawn) zzzz.  And then they race through the labs & medications 78 RPM.  But they're God's chosen people while we can't miss a comma...QA gets p..... off if we send too many blanks, well, I hope you see my point. My hat goes off to you!
    Bravo! Applause! Yes! I agree completely!

    BRAVO, Single Mom!!! You are 100% correct: Daycare is not s/m
    raising your kids any more than a SCHOOL is. I am so insanely sick and tired of the people on here who have NO idea how it feels to be without food and money to take care of their children. I would suspect that a great deal but NOT all) of the people telling the OP to stay home and not try to better herself with a nursing education and a nursing job have someone else who helps them pay the bills... do ya think?
    BRAVO!!! I send you my very best wishes for success! (nm)

    Bravo! Well, said Anna. TT is the BEST company in my 17 years of MTing.
    Thank you for standing up for them!
    My post should say the post above not the post below, Sheryl's post to be specific. nm

    It's a "fishing" post. Same post a few days ago with numerous errors
    ROFL
    You are not allowed to post their link on this site. Post

    Read Spherson's post below, who admits, in the post, they do pay it.

    Peachy, your post is interesting, but my post now is irrelevent but
    A few weeks ago I went to my clinic where they had recently implemented EHR or EMR, whichever you call it, and the doctor's back was to me the whole time he and I conversed because his nose was stuck in his laptop. To me, it felt a little more impersonal, but I understand he was doing what he had to do, but it seems like the bedside manner may go to the wayside if the doctors can't even look at you when they are asking you questions or you are speaking to him/her. I know this is relevant to your original post, but just an interesting fact that I had not anticipated. Anyone else experience this?
    This is why I NEVER post my cpl. I'll post the range of
    what the company pays, but NEVER what I make.  I know that I make more than probably 70% of the people there, because they know I produce a client ready report and that I can do anything they throw at me.   We don't have levels, but I guess if we did I'd be at the highest level.    Telling how much you make isn't so bad, but when people know what company you work for and then what you make that isn't a good combination.  The ONLY people I have ever discussed what I make with, are my husband and my MTSO owner.   Talking about your salary/pay is enough to get your fired in lots of companies.

    One post was another "run" type of post and the
    the recruiter. Once you are in with the company, the recruiter has nothing to do with you or your job. I want specifics about problems with THE JOB, not the recruiter.  Specifics such as no or late checks, line counts being messed up, no work, taking bennies away with no explanation. Things that matter, not the recruiter. 
    everytime you post, where ever you post
    unless you go through an anonymizer, your IP address can be traced back to you, even through the guises of this web site.  There are web sites you can find on the internet to do this for you, or if you are 18 years old and like to hack, it's an easy enough thing to do.
    I post a pay range, DOE; however, most don't post..
    I wish some MTs would start thinking about the business aspect of the industry.  For example, this is a public site, so go to Google or another search engine and type [the co's name] and per line, and voila! now everyone knows how much you pay your MTs.
    Post removed, you can re-post.

    Last post
    No, after I read a followup yesterday that said there were apologies and answered Michelle, I realized that and someone said to just get back to work and they were right.. even an apology was too much, plus it would look like I was just tagging along after JMO, which is what you are accusing me of now.

    I just didn't understand where the posts went, it was odd, and I wanted to reiterate some things (the point I mentioned earlier, about seeing BOTH sides), but I see it really doesn't matter WHAT I say, you've already made up your mind about me and my motivations without even knowing me. Why am I explaining myself to you? I dunno.

    It doesn't matter. Good luck to you and don't worry, God will take care of/deal with me, and I ask him to bless you all too.:)
    TO POST ABOVE, AT MQ 6 YRS....sm

    Would you please e-mail me at jcarros213@aol.com.  I "really" need information.
