Do they call people out on it? sm
I have been doing this a long time and when our stats are pretty up to date and then you get a stat dictated a couple of hours back, you sort of figure it out. I think all companies should have a cherry picker of the month and let the team know who they are. Does TT call people out on it? My company just overlooks it as long as someone will do it.
If they posted here looking for suckers
MTSTARs needs to ban them from ever posting here as they are a sham company that rip off not only people seeking employment but the legit companies they hack into and abuse
What gives you the right to call a lot of people low lifes...sm
You do not know these people personally and have no clue what type of person they are. I personally think it is a bit trashy to speak of others the way you have.
It's all SE status - some people just call it IC.

Can't you just email or call the DQS support people? My last job let me do it. 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...
Amen...remember what PT Barnum said about suckers...
there is one born every minute and most believe everything they read on the internet!
You''ve got to be kidding. It sounds like they are looking for some suckers
to do a free month of work. That is so ridiculous. You just know at the end of the end they are going to tell you after all that work that it didn't pass because you didn't put a comma where it needed to be etc.. and how are you going to dispute any of it or get paid. There is no way in ###$#$# that I would work for a place like that. Sounds like a bad scam of some sort.
The people I was instructed to call take days to answer. nm

Well if it is Amherst stick together and all of you call New Jersey. I did and a lot of people in my
office did and I dont know if it did any good or not but when I talked to New Jersey I got the distinct impression that were getting a lot of calls. They were very grouchy for sure. Dont just sit back and take it or nothing will change for you. There QA plan is so abusive it should be thrown out. You wouldnt believe the things they take off for to make sure you dont get QA points. They are a very very abusive office and it seems as though they like to make people miserable so it seems they must be very miserable women. You know, misery loves company.
I find that people who call others fraud are jealous.
Many people are jealous that others have made something more. It is the difference in each of us. I am sure if the recruiter who calls herself a hiring manager says she earns $46,000 that she does. I might even know who it is. I know I earn more and guess what?? I know one more recruiter that makes more than I do!
Being a recruiter, I know that you do not go around telling the company you earn that salary for because that is not professional to name the company, but if you think it is not possible, you are wrong. When you have excelled in the industry, it is not only possible, but probable.
If you want to make that kind of money, do something wonderful with your MT work and go for it, but you can't do it if you do not have the people skills or the ability to analyze.
CBay fired more people via conference call.
...including one that they tried to get rid of in December but felt compelled to keep.
snot suckers into the mic; years ago on tape I listened to...

QA corrections
If you think they have you mixed up, cut/copy your work to wordpad and put a job # on them, compare that with your QA corrections and see. Call the supervisor on this. NO one should be nitpicking you, I do not know who work with but good luck, some QAs can be relentless for petty stuff.
corrections...sm
Wether it's 1 QA person or more, keep corrections as references because I notice that even QA have their I'm in the mood to correct/type this today... These references will be your weapons. If this QA person/people will not let up, then I hate to say it, but just play the suck it up game until you get off of QA. It may or may not work for you, but I've played the suck it up game until I was off QA with 2 people and, now, as long as I follow the rules, neither one can tell me anything. I'm hoping someone will have better ideas, but good luck if you chose to go this route.
QA Feedback/Corrections
I am so frustrated.. I am just starting a new job/new account and the QA feedback is ridiculous.. I was an English major and know where my punctuation is supposed to go and the QA people keep removing commas were I know there are supposed to be commas. Also they keep removing The from sentences were I know the doctor said The or That. Like The History and instead they have been correcting it with just History and some other little changes that are driving me nuts. I am afraid that in the future these changes are going to go against me or something. Do I say something to the QA people or do I just let it go? I find it really irritating to be slapped down for something I know to be correct.
Try to question QA's corrections....
then you are certainly remembered who you are and picked on!
No, not when she has all those corrections to battle
Sounds like it's a 'too many cooks' situation for you, too, skunko. At a company as huge as the Q, I'm sure there are dozens of MTs in there and (from what I've heard) many newbies, etc., I'm sure quite a few people are overriding the system and changing what is technically correct, which is creating a lot of the chaos you're conscientious enough to clean up.
With regards to racking it up because Skunko gets 0.5 cpl, nah, she can't clean up if she's having to practically rewrite every report that drops into her cue. That's incredibly time consuming just doing it a couple of times a shift, not to mention if it were practically each and every report.
My sympathies, Skunko...I'd be struggling just like you if every report consisted of damage control!
WHAT? Do you have to email all those corrections to all the MTs...
so basically you are only getting paid for 15 lines if you fill in a blank? Do Focus QA people have to listen to the whole report from top to bottom or just jump to the blank? Our company must listen to the whole report. Why have a blank in paragraph 1, QA fills it in, but there are typos and crap in paragraph 3, 4, and 5? Interesting!
Hello!! Waiting for my corrections on grammer and ain't. (sm)
Sorry to be so petty, but a person tries to help another and this is the kind of crap that goes on.
This is the Holiday season and we should at least during this time of the year show a little compassion and kindness towards our co-workers.
You are very lucky: Only 10 corrections in 100 lines? Wow!...sm
Please tell me the company, so that I can switch.
Are the corrections legitimate? If so, maybe you have a few things to learn still..

I have a pretty good list. Any comments/corrections welcome. This is just from
what I have seen over the past few years in terms of growth, size and national accounts.
I put them alphabetical rather than size as I am not 100% on a few. There are 11 instead of 10 too.
This also leaves off a few that only have U.S. Editors with all work done offshore.
If I am missing any, I apologize. These are companies that I have seen at AHIMA, in magazines, on these boards, at AAMT, etc. I am not claiming perfection so I have omitted any, I apologize in advance.

Yes, call waiting works. I also have call forwarding from my home line

You can call it greed, I call it feeling like
I am back in the 80s with the money I am pulling in. SS, retirement check and my paycheck, cha-ching. Not planning on taking it with me, never. Love to travel and have 4 places planned for this year. High maintenance lady here. Ta-Ta.
People at TT have been paid! People who haven't well, maybe you did not make count and your check
after insurance deduction. Maybe your bank is holding it. Maybe anything! But we GOT PAID. This is NO LIE. And I am sick of this board. Nothing but disgruntled exemployees arguing with employees who like their job. Ugggg. I am working. BTW: THERE IS WORK (clears throat) remember that? Work?
Keystrokes is wonderful!! They are the nicest people and care 150% about their people!!
Excellent company!!!!
I worked for SS and some people were very RUDE and I am talking about the editing people in some
instances. It ALL depends on the person, as it does with any company. They paid on time and the lady over me was very nice, but boy the person in QA was mean to EVERYONE!! Never seen anything like it before.
Are people trying to scare people or just tell them what is happening. I am not scared just seeing
that things are changing very rapidly and not for the better for me. If I have no work and need multiple accounts everyone else is in the same boat now arent they that have my accounts. That is how people know what is going on.
Maybe due to the people that manage Amherst. I think MQ would be a lot better off finding new people
up there with all the problems you hear about that office. Seems like something is very very wrong there.
I doubt it. There are more happy people than unhappy people sm
at Medquist. I've checked out other companies but I liked MQ the best (I kept working at MQ while testing other companies).
SO right! People who get paid to bring people on-board -sm
to these companies (few, if any, are 100% honest, it seems), are going to be honest and tell you anything that isn't rosy and sugar-coated. Having a good prospective MT walk because the company isn't so great means less green dollars in their bank account every month. They're not going to tell us anything that DOESN'T make them more money.
More people will come into VR because the qualifcations to do MT are not the same. Lots of people w
to work at home. It's all relative to what you are used to. The nationals are counting on this. I think MTs will work cheaper rather than reenter the work force with no other skills than MT. The nationals are counting on this.
They named people's names. That is not right. People just sm
need to keep from naming names. I thought it was an informative bit of information, but when you name names, then posts are way out of line.
I would really like to see a truly professional way of talking about a company. I don't care what board you go to, somehow people just do not want to play nice when it comes to talking about people. If those people could learn to be a little more professional and stop posting names to their wrath or anger, then that will be the day I can say I am proud to be in this profession. When I see those types of things, it makes my skin crawl. If it were me being talked about, I would be livid. I certainly understand why the posts were deleted.
Thank you for saying that. Most people here just love to trash people.
It is against board rules though.
Heartland - we take care of our people people
I meant in quotation marks, not parentheses.
For people at MDI-MD that say they are out of work, I see they are hiring now. Are people still
running out of work or did they get more accounts. I am interested in this company.
Honestly, people some people are lazy...
plain and simple, sad but true.
Dont kid yourself that people dont know what is going on. Do you honestly think these office people
dont talk. Maybe you should make sure you know what you are talking about before you open your mouth.
Who said people who work for KS aren't happy for people who work for (sm)
other companies? I'm happy for people who are happy with their jobs, no matter what company they work for.
Call them......
Since the Warminster office is being absorbed into the Northeast Region, the only ones who can answer that question for you is the Warminster office itself. I've worked for them for years and have plenty of work - my accounts haven't gone anywhere.
Yes. I get what they call
a tiered incentive on my checks and then get quarterly bonuses to boot. I was quite impressed actually. I started at 8.75 cpl and can earn up to 2 cpl incentive plus the bonuses.
We got Labor day incentives too...$40 for the first 800 lines and $20 for every 400 lines after that.
It may all fall apart but right now I'm happy.
If you truly cannot call, perhaps
it is time to find work with another MTSO/company? That way when one is slow, you will have another as a backup? This is, of course, assuming you are an IC. If you are an employee having communications issues where you cannot even call your employer, I would start looking elsewhere.
I could call and say
I could call and say I I couldn't work that day if I was sick or if my daughter was sick, things like that, but I've never done that with the exception of a few weeks ago when my husband had open heart surgery and I ended up not working for 3 days.
I could call and say
But the point is I would never do that. I have to have a very good reason why I wouldn't work.
Why not just CALL them?
