Calling someone a liar is not a small thing. I am not defensive.

I know the owner and have for a few years. When I see someone call someone a liar, I want to know what constitutes a lie in your opinion?

Same thing happened to me, and when I kept calling
hired me went on vacation for 3 weeks. Ridiculous. I had to move on and get work with someone else. Cannot waste time waiting around for people like this - how long will you wait around when you have a problem. Nope ... move on.
You are just a liar
You are making this up!
liar
never said that- I am not going to subject myself to this anymore-- just love my job and that's that.
sorry-liar
I am sorry if you took that I called you a liar, just thought you should share the info- I don't search this board too often. I was looking word help and thought I would jump on to see if there was any GOOD news about our direct deposit and ran across all this. Again, sorry if you felt that I called you a liar- don't know you to do that!
Well you called her a liar. We have a lot of new MTs
who appear to be happy. When you call someone a liar, you should be prepared to back up that claim. I am sorry they changed their mind on the trainer position. Perhaps they put it on hold. At least they told you that they decided not to hire anyone. Some companies leave you hanging.
Hey, you don't have to call me a liar ...
What I said is absolutely true for me. It may not be the case for other people, but my experience has been very positive with WMX. So, it's not a crock of sh##. I'm not trying to talk for other people, just telling about my own, true, actual experience.
or maybe you can't ADD. Liar. $20.00 in your dreams!
don't even think you'll make that kind of money there. They pay about 6 cents a line for typing and 3 for speech recognition editing. It's an insult.
I was serious, no need to get so very defensive...
you really do sound right for them, that is all...relax...
Being Defensive
No of course not. I didn't tell you the conversations verbatum. Just giving friendly warnings! Wow, are we just a tad defensive?? Is this her??? LOL
Why so defensive? sm
The OP's post was NOT rude, childish or vulgar, and she had every right to express her feelings and frustration regarding this company. I appreciate her candidness because I came to this board to learn what MTs really think about their jobs, and that includes hearing the negative along with the positive. I'm glad to hear you're happy, but don't discount her opinion and experience because it's not as rosy as yours.
Hmm. . . Why so defensive??
I post on several other sites that do not have spam problems, and people who post can even use a proxy. Sites that require an auth code are tracking - and for a reason. MTSO's filter this board.
Defensive just a bit? nm

Defensive??? sm
No, I'm not *defending* her. I'm just saying that it was no big deal to mute the call -- in fact, it was appreciated.
What I DIDN'T appreciate was all of the talk in acronyms. If she'd put the call on the web, at least she could've had flashcards for translating CDIX or whatever these new programs are.
...And no one has yet explained to me the difference between an MT and a TranOp.
What I also DON'T appreciate is repeatedly holding these meetings WITHOUT an agenda available beforehand. It's impossible to think fast enough to form a relevant question when we don't have a clue what the topics are to begin with.
But then why should I expect these things to run according to Roberts Rules of Order??? The point is NOT for exchange of info/ideas but to TELL us things without time for discussion. Duh on me.
Thank you. I am not a liar. I send the reports too
because I was warned with a written warning. So, I upped the ante and started doing the required line count and quality flew out of the window.
The more mean, defensive postings I see from you indicate to me that
because you're getting a little too angry and taking it a little too personally not to be. 
Feeling a little defensive are we?
You wrote: Perhaps we are all generalizing too much.
And then you went on to generalize! Who said all companies are bad?
What I see here (presently) are legitimate complaints and MTSOs whining about them instead of posting 'any'thing remotely like: Thanks for the input; comments under consideration.
Well maybe we'll all win the lottery and be done with all of this! LOL :)
You don't need to be so defensive...geez!
I wouldn't know about the other docs because the account I was on was ALL ESL, very, very difficult to understand ESL's, and one physician that was just impossible to understand, and every time I logged on, it was always him on there. I realize there are ESL's everywhere because I do them on a daily basis, but he was the WORST one I have EVER had and the others on that account were terrible as well. Let's face it...you can't make any money if you can't understand what they are saying. I told them I could not understand them and nothing was ever done about it and I wasn't going to stick around long enough to be their gofer! Like I said, I was disappointed about it, but we all have to pay the bills and I couldn't do that with them! Just wanted to let everyone know that there is a REALLY bad account there and they should be well informed on what they are accepting beforehand.
My, my...you girls are defensive!
Never said I was a W fan, did I? Don't get your panties in a wad!
Wow. Are you defensive. And not entirely honest.

Since when is being honest the same as being defensive
Sounds to me like you were probably one of the ones they had to let go.
A person who has proven to be deemed a liar
No one has had to wait six weeks to start. You are a liar and a troublemaker.
We also do not supply equipment any more, so that is another lie. Unreturned phone calls? Another lie. All 8 people in the office answer the phone and take care of the person who called immediately.
You are a troublemaker and obviously have nothing better to do than post lies.
The only time posts get pulled is when someone calls someone out by name or gives away account or confidential information.
There is NO ONE that has slipped through the cracks. No one.
You called the owner a liar just because she changed her mind
about a position. What about that constitutes a lie?
Please stand by and wait your turn to be called a liar.
***hold music playing***
***(recording)*** Please continue to hold. There are *89* callers before you. Please hold...

Not defensive, just telling the truth.
I'm not the owner. I'm an employee. And if it appears that I'm touchy, it's because I know for a fact that one of TC's ex-employees has done nothing but trash the company, to the point where I had to stop communicating with her because I was tired of hearing non-stop negativity, when she didn't even work there any more. Maybe you're not that person; maybe you are.
Either way, it's a good, solid company, and potential employees shouldn't be scared away by negative posts concerning it.
Have a nice day. 
How can you be so defensive? nothing was mentioned about India -nm

Oh, LOL. Guess I got defensive too quick :) NM.

I call TROLL on the defensive
so-called MT who defends cherry-picking. 
well she is a liar then. the majority speaks and the truth has been heard. sorry, actions speak
CALLING ALL NEW MQ MTs
What incentives were you hired at? If you are an SE, were you told you get quarterly bonuses? PLEASE REPLY!
Just keep calling (sm)
Don't be nervous. Same thing happened to me. They are spread pretty thin there, with people wearing a number of hats. They don't really have one person who does only recruiting that I'm aware of, unlike the other companies, hence the disconnect in getting back with people.
Have you tried calling them?

Calling on ICs
I have always been a FT employee for a national ...I understand IC status but very unfamiliar w/companies hiring IC status....Any advice on ICing greatly appreciated and good/bad companies....How is money doing Rad as compared to hospital basic 4...?
Thank you
keep calling
630-553-3680 I played phone tag for quite awhile before I finally got to talk to the recruiter. I believe they must be really busy hiring these days.
No name-calling, please. (sm)
We all have to get along on this board. If you don't care for what someone is posting, you can disagree but you cannot use foul names or vulgar references.
First off an MD would not be calling HR to
talk about an MT. They have a contact and if they had a problem with the work of an MT they would call their contact, not HR.
Have you tried calling them???

Why would you be calling yourself sm
Newer TTer if you've been there for 3 years? Probably forgot to change the name field, didn't you? I smell someone trying to be more than 1 person here.
you are calling her smug?
I think it's quite smug that you assume because you state you were allowed to have a flexible shift that this statement will automatically allow Transcend management to know who you are! So, you were the only one treated special? Well, you don't work there anymore so all should be fair now!
Also, I knew coming into the job that Transcend had 300 or so employees and was not as big as Spheris. Who cares? Also, I think the fact that you pointed out, about how numbers of MTs post positive comments about Transcend, I think that definitely speaks as to the health of the company. If we were posting negative comments, everyone would be ready and more than willing to accept those posts as an indication of how the company is functioning. It seems that the bad is always more spicer and acceptable than the good.
As far as blanket statements go, that is exactly what was going on with the unhappy poster. They were blanket statements. And as far as trying to "draw her out", you are absolutey correct. I could care less who that poster is, I want to draw out the specifics of the allegations. I want to understand what she is talking about and why. If you are going to post something on here that is controversial, you had better be prepared to back it up, good or bad. There is nothing wrong with expecting that out of someone, otherwise that poster's comments are chalked up to a disgruntled employee or bad seed.
I also know that I am no one special at Transcend, but I have managed to be treated very well there since being hired. I have been given everything that I need and have FINALLY found a company that I can trust. It is quite easy to get on here and post positive things about a company, placing your name beside it. You are right about that. However, I have worked for Keystrokes and Spheris and have posted many times complaints about each and have posted my name. Why is that? Because I believe in what I stand for and if I feel that I am not being heard or treated fairly, I am not ashamed or afraid to stand up for what I need. Sure there may be repercussions in that, but I am willing to accept that. What some people don't realize, though, is that there are also repercussions in anonymity in that you never get anything changed.
CALLING ALL MEDWARE MTs
Considering this company, could some people give me their average pay an hour, etc. Tx
?? Why the name calling? Deal with it..

I see. So that's why you are calling her dishonest?
Apparently there were changes made. That does not make her dishonest. It means her plans changed.
I have this recruiter calling me
about a position within her company. When I asked her initially how she got may name and number she said someone gave it to her but she couldn't remember who. Anyway, she has called 4-5 times. Her name sounded familiar so I looked back to old jobs I had applied for. She used to be the recruiter for SoftScript (I guess, she may work for both). Are they allowed to take that information with them to another company? I'm really bothered by the fact that she has done this and have told her to quit calling me but I'm just amazed that she has taken this information and is now using it for this other company.
Hmmm. I would try calling them. nm

If they are calling you , then yes, you passed - sm
otherwise you'd probably never hear from them, or maybe get an email saying try back in 6 months. Talk to them, you have nothing to lose. If you like what they say accept the offer but tell them you cannot start until January. Or if they don't like that offer to work PT until then and go FT in January. It usually takes a week or more to get all set up as it is. As for looking around, you face a lot of competition, jobs are hard to come by. I just lucked into a backup job for my main job (both are totally IC, no set hours and on the new one just have to meet 500 lines a day) (getting bad vibes from my regular job, another MTSO is trying to get the account away from my employer, and if they succeed I am out of a job--they have been up front with me at least at let me know). The pay for the new IC job is not great (average), but for now is it extra $. If it becomes my B&B I will be making less, but it is easier work so it would all work out in the end. You could accept the MW offer and keep looking, no law against that. Good luck.
Try calling a recruiter.

Or not calling a recruiter. That would be best.

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.
