If you post a question/comment here about your company, if they wanted to know who you are, it is possible for them to track down who you are?
Thanks

I just keep track of my main break. I don't keep track
of every interruption during my shift, that would be ridiculous. Im not gonna log every potty break, or phone call I have to take. I take 20-30 mins for my dinner break and that is what I log on my sheet.
Several companies on the Job Seeker's Board pay that.
I see 3 right now. I can't say who they are, but they are there.
Board is for talking BETWEEN the MTs, not the companies!
Aren't you being ugly? LOL
Maybe you should be pulled!
There are companies on this board advertising for 8 cpl
They also want you to pay your own taxes, provide equipment,and pay your own long distance service. PLEASE. Don't do it.
I will bet if all these companies had message board that sm
you would still see the same things as on the MQ board. Same crap goes on everywhere.
Stick with the recommended companies from the New MT Board. nm

It's amazing to read this board and see how many rotten MT companies there are out there!
What the heck happened to this business!

Only if you believe what you read on this web site. Personally, I would not put one ounce of thought into what someone anonymously writes.
Doesn't this board not allow posts or ads by companies that outsource?

are you serious? This board is for MTs to get information about companies from personal experience.

?? company board, can talk about specific companies by name (nm)

Posting on the company board and companies figuring out
who it is. Okay, this is the topic, and the reason why I am bringing this up is there were at least 2 posts here in the last week stating they believed the company would find out or did find out they posted here and they said negative things and might get fired or did not get hired because of it.
How is this possible? Can a recruiter or boss actually pin down who is posting? What if someone says something and they are a troll and sounds like a situation which the company person perceives is an employee and they take it out on the possible new hire or employee and they are wrong?
There have been posts here in the past by company managers who say if they find out who is posting they will sue for slander. Then, MTs come on here and assume that the companies go to the board managers and get the IP address to figure out who this is. Even if it was a certain IP address, and they went through this whole process to find out, it could be routed through another IP address such as overseas (this is often done in the case of hiding identity).
Since this is an anon board, how can any company say for sure it is a certain person. Why would they go to the trouble unless it were given to the police or a lawyer in the case of attempted murder or threat of such?
I want to know you opinions. And moderator please feel free to comment. Wondering if our IP addresses are given out every time a company suspects something and if so, is this an invasion of our privacy since this should be anon. Or, is it that people are paranoid, whether it be the employee/new hire, or company assuming such. Remember to never assume because why? You make an *** out of u and me.
Thanks for your comments. This has been bothering me a while now, and I would like to get some input back on this issue from companies and from posters alike.
track changes
Ok, I am correcting one of my girls documents. I am trying to use track changes. After i email this to her i want to get rid of the red marks, save, and send to my client. How do i get rid of these red marks?
NOW you are on the right track.
As to noncompete agreements? They are generally not enforceable IF they are too broad - and that's where an attorney comes in - for interpretation. IF YOU DON'T target THEIR clients, you are free to solicit business where you choose. So bypass the legal stuff and solicit your OWN, different clients...
You should ALSO contact your reps in congress - in a serious professional can I have a meeting type of way. Start with your local representative and be prepared to some serious homework. This is if you want to undertsanding why and how offshoring exists. Not as simple as some would have you believe.
Good luck!
off track totally....
And we have a Chevy with 300,000 miles been going strong for years plowing snow, blah, blah, blah....but all this is off track and is very unfortunate that it appears that many just simply do not care if the MT industry gets off-shored or not. But again, that is every individuals perogative to care or not to care and only someday when it affects you or someone you love personally will you ever truly understand!!
They also track your location
because you cannot post anonymously anymore. If you are using a proxy site you cannot post.
Big Brother MTSO.
no it doesn't track total for whole day
you have to do each document individually, but also keep in mind that it counts ALL lines, both typed and not typed. So be careful of that, if you aren't getting paid for blank lines.
You're exactly right! Oh, and please do not track me down at my personal
Big no-no. No-no.
Maybe 45 minutes, didn't keep track though sm
wasn't bad in my opinion. Pretty routine questions, the more you know off your head, the faster it goes and also if you keep the small talk down and get to business, doesn't take that long.
Well, now I'm curious. I have to track down who I worked for. I was

I'd keep track of my time and figure out my hourly (sm)
and go from there. It'll either be an hourly rate you're happy with or not, kwim?
Yes, they can track you via the IP address that you are posting from. There is no such thing as pri

I DO keep track, and work long hours, but only
If I say I can't do the minimum line count in 8 hours, they say I'm too slow. But if I eliminate quality (by not proofing or not correcting grammar, and just typing verbatim) then I hear about that, too. They just say to work harder, work faster.
The MTSO's only care about their precious TAT and volume. What we have to do to ourselves in order to accomplish THEIR goals is of no importance to them.
The only way it ever will be is if someday they happen to get put under a microscope like other fraudulent US businesses have, lately.
What I wouldn't give to see the fat-cats at AHDI up in front of Congress trying to explain themselves some fine day. Could happen.
Did not like. Slow, cumbersome, no way to track line counts.

Anyone hear of them? TIA!
sounds like Medquist keeping track of all times
my company does not do that
Keeps track of keystrokes and websites. Monitors you to make

Maybe they mean sign in and out for breaks etc to keep track of the 8 hours that you are to work. nm

Then we ALL need to start keeping track of our hours and anything that falls
below minimum wage - we need to start reporting these companies - don't care if this is caused only because of a decrease in starting VR or whatever causes it, no work, downtime if not paid, EVERYTHING included. I do believe that might get the MTSOs attention. They can't fire us all. Looks like India MT situation might be in trouble so the MTSOs should be very cautious that perhaps they can't rely on offshore forever in the future.
Does DQS track your time for payroll, or do we fill in our own timesheet on-line? nm

Haven't noticed - do you keep track of individual report counts?

You say you type 130 wpm but call yourself slow? I think you lost track of your story AnnSallie
Hope you are happy and glad if you are. I'm not following this anymore as it's getting a little old.
I suppose you have to write down the line count for every single document and it doesnt track them
for a total for the while day. That is what I was wondering.
MedQuisters, topics from the Company board are being moved to the MedQuist board. MQ posts on
the first page of the Company board will be removed to open up space for other companies to post. Enjoy the new Medquist board set up for you.
Thank you,
Administrator
Are you the same condescending person the word board? I thought this was called "Company Board.&#

Didn't you post this on 03/04/06 on both the Company Board and the Hospital/Clinic MT Board?

Monitor, I hope this post is okay.
TransTech and Medware, are these companies considered large, medium-sized or small companies? (sm)
TIA
Yikes.. That is only inline with companies like Focus and such. "Real" companies pay their MTs
decent rate. I make over 5 cpl editing. So, if I got that slap in the face, I'd be outta there.
You already have your own board. Now you want a board for the ones who leave??

Do the research...most companies, and not just MT companies, do not pay for maternity leave...
we get time off but not paid...and I really don't even understand the point of you posting this...
How do you know which companies are Nationals and which are smaller companies.
Is there a list somewhere? I'm new to this.
