Trying hard to understand your post, and you
could very well be on the QA staff at OSi. OR could also be management. Trust me, there are many people who have a lot to say about the insanity at OSi.
I found this post very hard to follow.
Odd sentence configuration made it hard to understand, I thought, and not what I'd expect from an MT. Plus, it's not clear what post it went with.
Kind of hard to blame the post office when
the company hasn't even mailed it!
Many other MTs can confirm that
the line counting is different from most companies out there. If you do decide to go with them I would ask for a higher line rate to compensate for that. That is the only way you will make any money there. When I asked for a verification of report numbers to go along with their respective line counts for each the company got very hostile with me and said they could not provide it. I have had email after email from MTs that currently work there looking for a way out but afraid to speak out for fear of being fired before they find something else or fear of being sued. This company is sending out some bad vibes. When MT after MT tells the same story over and over again you have to be inclined to investigate further. If you must try it anyway, be sure that you get all info up front and a very good line rate.
I can confirm it...
I was offered 9 cpl a few weeks ago on an account with no VR (though the tech installed another platform on my PC (meaning of course I would be doing VR sooner or later, like it or not). This was a second shift Tues-Sat position. Thank God I also heard from another smaller company and very quickly and happily went with them at 8 cpl, no VR, Sun-Thursday 3:30 to midnight, and no offshoring; the no offshoring was what decided me in the end. Plus these folks seem more professional thus far, and I feel very relieved I made this choice.
I cannot confirm or deny this one! No msg.

all you did was confirm SS's reputation TY!!!!
WE REST OUR CASE!!!!
Can anyone confirm if Execuscribe is a (sm)
subsidiary of Corporate Transcriptionist's?
When I can confirm my new job, I will sing the name of this company

Never w/MQ but confirm K's info on WebMedx. NM

Just needed to confirm my suspicious on here

You need to confirm that with Keystrokes as I was told last week it was not. sm
I would assume each account has different software and programs as to whether it is compatible or not. I was told most of their accounts are not. So don't assume that all Keystrokes accounts are compatible.
Youch. Can any current TRS'er confirm if this is true? nm

any QT workers
frequent this board. How is pay, benefits, work load. Still owned by Tampa couple?
MDI-MD workers, can you tell me
if they accept dial-up connections or satellite? Don't find it on their website. thanks.
Workers' Comp, IC @ MQ
Have any IC's ever filed a WC claim against MQ? If so, what was the course and/or outcome?
They are looking for workers -- but NO WORK

First of all, the auto workers SM
have been protected from the realities of the world for decades now. I have contact with them daily-you should hear them cry and complain over having to pay $4 a pay period to cover their family's health insurance. Co-pay for a Rx went up from $2 to $5? Oh, the complaining about what a raw deal they get.
These people all have cottages to summer in, multiple vehicles for business, leisure and sports and the rest of us have slaved. No company EVER promised to take care of its employees for life. We MTs have known that for years and now these people also can find this out.
To All happy IC workers..
Are you satisfied as an IC and not having benefits because you have another job that pays benefits or are dependents of someone how has medical benefits?
I think that off-shore workers
You just summed that up for me. I am glad you told the truth in that you like using slaves to transcribe who are none the wiser.
As an IC, I choose my own hours, days, lines, etc. You as an MTSO consider that whining, when it is the law.
So if you sleep at night knowing you are abusing and mistreating offshore workers, then good for you! It actually just proves you have no heart.
Another point I'd like to make is that if you need subs to make you money, you must be a horrible Transcriptionist yourself.
Any doctor that old me he doesn't care who types, when, and how would be off of my list of good doctors and I wouldn't waste my time. That doctor obviously doesn't care about people but only his own pocket and that would include you as the MTSO. That same doctor that told you he/she doesn't care will drop you as an MTSO in a minute when he/she finds a better deal.
Always remember, we reap what we sow. Try and have a good day, master!
Any Oracle workers here?
Am I the only one at Oracle (OTI) that constantly and consistently runs out of work? I'm not just talking about the usual holiday lull, I mean pretty much everyday? Because I do. I don't think I've had a paycheck yet that's been over 400 dollars. I'm on three accounts (count em '3') and there's still hardly ever enough work. I keep asking my QA ppl to put me on yet another account and they say there aren't anymore openings but then I get emails from them saying how the workload is heavy in this account, heavy in that account... etc.
Why why why is this so hard? Any advice? Anybody?
My request for workers
Apparently all of you who are so disgusted with my posting are so busy that you have time to be on this chat board. I, am quite busy and do not have time to filter through hundreds of resumes, which I have received in the past from a posting. Therefore I was upfront and honest about what I needed and what I would pay. NO, this is not subcontracted work, this is a full fledged hospital account, if it is any of your business. Spend time working not running other people down that you know nothing about.
netmed workers
I tested for the company called Net Med Transcription and was just wondering if anyone out there works for them and if they like, dislike them?
C&C Transcription does pay it's workers
Please don't confuse CC Transcription with C&C Transcription, they are two totally separate companies. Also C&C Transcription does NOT offer direct deposit.

It's just one more way of cheating workers.
Any Freedom Type workers here? - sm
I've heard nice things, read nice things. Do you like working here? Do you enjoy the work? Set your own hours and workload?
TIA!
I think it is great to get to know more of our "co-workers". (sm)
My elderly mom lives with me, my grandchildren are here before and after school and I go to Wal-Mart and Price Chopper a couple of times a week. That is it for me. I love the idea of getting to know some of my fellow workers. Winter is an extremely crafty season, hopefully will find others with similar interests.
Workers of the World, Unite!
I agree 100%. They accuse John Edwards of engaging in class warfare, and I say why not? The time has come to put an end to all this ugliness. Golden country, indeed.
I'd have to agree with you. Yes, you get a few disgruntled workers who probably
aren't qualified to be doing this work and get reprimanded or just plain unhappy and like to complain, then think twice about their opinion on a company, but for God's sake when people tell you that they aren't not getting paid on time, correct, or AT ALL, why in the world would you consider even taking a job for them. I agree with the poster in that it does reach a level of stupidity and companies that have those kind of unethic and dishonest tactics just prey on stupid people who should have known better to begin with. I think everyone has a right to voice their opinion and experience, good or bad, and yes, some of it take with a grain of salt BUT if it involves your livelihood, a paycheck, then pay attention. I just don't get people either. Here's your sign 
SINCE WHEN IS EXPLOITATION OF WORKERS PROPRIETARY?..sm
Are workers for NetMed IC's or employees?

I don't think anybody's wrath is directed at workers
For the most part, it seems the barbs are going right where they belong- at management. The closest anyone has come to faulting the Indian workers themselves is the wage that they make, which they have no control over anymore than we do.
10 reports per hour for QA workers???
Is it reasonable for an MTSO to expect QA to QA 10 reports per hour....when working on several acute care accounts? For the most part it is blanks only, but sometimes there are also full listens.
And they hired 300 Indian workers with plans for
Spheris Inc. of Franklin, Tennessee, has hired 300 people for its new center in Coimbatore, in India's southern Tamil Nadu state, and plans to add another 700 workers in the next year, company president and chief executive Steven Simpson told reporters.
Employees now, now workers comp needed...nm

Why positions cannot be filled. Not due to lack of workers,
Is it because Microsoft cannot meet employment demands based on available US similarly trained workers without paying US expected pay. I am sure if Microsoft was offering a decent wage those positions could be filled. But they will not be filled with US employees if Microsoft is only willing to pay offshore pay rates.
this is the last place I'd guess fellow workers to be...
during work hours in order to get an answer. Doesn't anyone work?
not to mention being discourteous to your co-workers this comes across as being a total ah
:
Most of the weekend workers you listed make more than some
of the MTs on the board, so are they not getting better pay than the MT? Certainly, the baby-delivering doctor, the cops, the tip-receiving club works, blah, blah, blah.
Since your reply doesn't even address the actual question being asked, how selfish of you to take up valuable space on the board to vent your indignation about others.
do they provide computers even wtih partitime workers?
i need to know if they just send computers to fulltime workers. do they subtract every month for the computer that they will be sending the home-based MT? how much?
That should read "no workers comp needed" sorry

Ther e is a IT company in California who brings workers
puts them on board, sails out past the 12-mile rule into international waters, they work a few weeks, then brings them back to shore for leave, rinse and repeat.
This is not a rumor.
Lots of Indian workers use "American"-sounding
Say "Get Over It" to the auto workers and their families who are getting pink slips. sm
How do you think you would feel if you spent most of your adult life working for one of these companies promising you security if you stayed with them.
I doubt they HAVE to, but most probably do as an incentive to get workers to work the late shifts an

I have talked to MANY DSG workers who are badly treated. I chose to move on when I had enough!
Feel sorry for those who are miserable and stay anyway.
The "lead" probably quit if she had to spend her time begging for workers...sm
Doubt she was demoted - leads are too hard to come by. She probably quit management so she could get lines herself, or quit completely because she got tired of having to constantly recruit for accounts that were understaffed.
I know of many Teamster union workers who retired at an early age, i.e. 57 yo and have a HUGE
retirement check for the rest of their life. It is a great organization. There may be strikes, but usually get it resolved in a reasonable amount of time and with MUCH better PAY and BENEFITS.
Only from my experience with union workers.
Not blind. Brown nosers make great workers for the
