These are my figures bases on FT 160 hours.
So if do 20,000 lines per pay period equals
10,000 lines per week = 250 lines an hour per 8 hr (every hour)
you get 7.5 cents a line Woww eee
($1500 a month - so work 40 hours a week X 4 equal 160 hours equal ONLY $9.37 hour for all the skill and accuracy.

thank you! I'll consider that straight from the horses mouth..so to speak.

I've heard good and bad, just want facts from the horses mouth.
I have also heard great things about this company, only recently have I heard bad things. If they post on this message board they supposedly do not offshore work. The moderator would definitely have something to say about that, don't you think?
Does that make sense to you?
No Way! We show horses too
There's no way I would give it up for a job. As you know, it's an addiction. I am willing miss an event now and then, and try to work my schedule around the horse events, but I would not give it up entirely. And to give up your dogs too? I think you'd be miserable.
I don't think we're the ones who need to get off our high horses
We're not the ones who are irritated by a simple question.
Just hold your horses, ain't Christmas yet!
I think you need to check your mouth
9 cpl/gross does NOT equal 13 cpl/character, maybe 11 but not 13.
This was from the horse's mouth.
Perhaps you need to get a new horse.
Remember the packet changes are effective January 1, not today.
It's unfortunate you aren't being paid for downtime. I was paid several times for 40 hours, when my hours fell short.
I see the packet as MQs move to finally consolidate EVERYONE onto the same plan of management so this ridiculous "but my office says and it's true" stuff can stop.
The horse's mouth would be
The Administrator can only go by what she is told by the company directly or an MT has to produce proof that they offshore before she prevents them from posting on this board.
Mush Mouth
THOSE are the words that describe exactly what I have had to type also, so I REALLY feel bad for you. I have spent half an hour on a 60-second report, so OBVIOUSLY, my line count is going to be pathetic. But when I say that I'm having a hard time due to short, difficult reports (trying to put it nicely as opposed to doing mush mouth reports!!), I just get told that they have MTs that do short reports just like I'm doing, and that they have no problem making 1000 lines a day. RIGHT; WRONG!!! There is NO way to make 1000 lines a day when you have short reports and mush mouth dictators, which unfortunately, most dictators do NOT dictate clearly. What irks me is some of them could easily dictate clearly, but they just start dictating in this tired, slow voice. I'm sure they are probably overworked and under paid also, but it's just as easy to dictate a report clearly as it is to dictate it muffled and mush mouthed. I left MT for a few months and then got desperate and went back to work, but it hasn't even been a month, and I'm already tired of the same old problems as above. I have no normals or templates that I know of, just a bunch of doctors dictating the same old stuff. Am about ready to quit, once again. I need the money, though, so I don't have any options.
LOL - You took the words right out of my mouth.
NM
Are you a typical TT MT, with that mouth???
x
Thanks. Maybe better keep my mouth shut. (sm)
My main account is one of those with boldings on and off all over the place. Really a pain on ASR work.
Unless this gets to be more than a couple of minutes at a time I will just sit back and consider myself lucky.
Thanks for your help.
from the horse's mouth
Per company e-mail from Transcend CEO, the merge is with Transcription Relief Services.
Don’t put words in my mouth, what I am saying is
I would rather have $5.00 than absolutely no money at all. Anyone who does not understand this has something wrong with them. I do not work for that but she quit her job without anything else no now 0 money. Now do you understand?
I think it's somebody running their mouth
nm
I have never been one to keep my mouth shut -this happened to me,and
I told the supervisor, who did put a stop to it. Turns out this girl was assigning herself the good work and the supe didn't watch it. However, I have also heard of other supes who just let it go, and if they did that after you mentioning it, I'd be on my way out the door, for sure.
Also, most of these positions are word of mouth.
You do not see these positions advertised because it is about knowing each other and word of mouth.
You took the words right outa my mouth!

The reason people bad mouth them is
because not everyone has it as peachy as you do. Some are constantly in the c-pool or run out of work. Some have PS's that do not communicate anything. Some have ASR accounts that are so bad they have to erase everything and start all over. Some get reprimanded for punching in 5 minutes late while some punch in an hour late and get no discipline.
Some have rad accounts that pay for each separate body part while others lump it all into 1. I don't do rad personally, but I've seen enough of it to know that it doesn't pay fairly - it's by the report with some reports being counted as 1 while some are separated into reports per body part.
While I'm about 75% happy with MQ, there are many that aren't that happy and even some that are happier than that. There are just too many variables at MQ, which is probably what irritates me the most. Second in line is the fact I haven't had a raise in more than 5 years and my current pay rate isn't that great. I personally don't care for E-time (our timecard system), but that's because I don't like any timecard system.
The best advice I can give you is if you are currently employed, do not quit that job until you've tried out the new place for a while and you know it's a good fit. Good luck.
You are putting words in my mouth....sm
so to speak. I never said I have not looked for work while employed or looked for better benefits, platform, etc. And of course I have found companies where the negatives outweighed the positives and caused me to look for work elsewhere. There is nothing wrong with that. What I am against is an MT purposely hiring on simultaneously with multiple companies to weed out those she/he finds unacceptable. To me, that is highly unethical, and I am quite sure most MT companies would agree. In fact, there are some companies that prohibit working for other companies while in their employ.
My whole intent and purpose in posting originally was the hope of shedding a different light on the MT profession, but apparently there are so many here who are so bitter and angry that they refuse to see any other side but their own. Bitterness is a vicious animal that will eat away at you, leaving one empty and desolate while the object of one's bitterness remains unscathed. Do you really think that is the solution to the MT industry's problems?
Yeah, probably spoken from the mouth...sm
of someone who has never suffered ONE SINGLE hardship in her pampered life. Put yourself in someone else's shoes. Some of you on this board........you may have it made and do not NEED this job as your sole income. some of you have probably NEVER had a hardship or anything happen to you. If you are fortunate to have never known hunger, poverty, etc.........good for you.
For some of you, this job is just a hobby, for MORE it is something we do because we HAVE TO WORK AND HAVE TO MAKE MONEY, PAY BILLS, EAT, AND ALL the other things that we need just to LIVE.........
another poster shooting off their mouth sm
when they don't have a clue.. I am off today, not that its any of your business. BTW, how do you know how much I am posting if you are not reading? AHHHHHHHH but I guess you can type and read posts too right? Get a life!
I thought this was mgmt also but kept my mouth shut...nm

Foot in mouth. Sorry :) I never heard it mentioned.
I thought that Mantis was the OSi platform.
I don't wanna put words in the company's mouth
because I don't know if the insurance type/coverage varies from state to state or not. I have to provide insurance for both my husband and I (through DeVenture) and well, that does take a bite out of the ol' paycheck I must admit. However, when I was getting just coverage for myself, so long as I made 7000+ lines a week, they paid 90% of the cost, and that wasn't too shabbyof a deal at all.
If the hospital employees know, then the company knows. Keep your mouth shut and get out.

With a Smart A mouth like yours, I woulda charged ya double
LOL...............
With your negative attitude, poor spelling skills and foul mouth,
I'm inclined to side with the MTSO on this one.
Hey OrthoMT.. tried to email you back but the email was returned as undeliverable..
Basically, this is what I'd like to know.. You can email me the information if you like..First off, are they hiring for ortho? and what is their scheduling like, FT or PT, IC status or employee etc. I would like to find a company that is pretty flexible. Also, what platform do they use? I have worked at some like you were saying, took forever to get the line count and I want to work 8 hours and be done. Oh, do you have benefits, and what are they like if you have them? Thanks for any information you can give..
No, but I will email the Moderators as soon as I find the email. You know it's the truth, Becky.

Administrator- could you email me. I never posted that message about Netmed, yet it came to my email
address and I figured it out when someone from Netmed contacted me about my post. Is it possible for someone to steal and use your email address to post things. I thought there was some validation in place.
I am reposting email address, not sure why you cannot email me. nm

They email everyone a copy of the newsletter. Email and ask
and they will email you one if you haven't been receiving it.

We got the list from AHDI. If someone does not wish to be on our email list, there is a link to click on at the bottom of those for opting out. We immediately remove those that click the link.
We also have a few mailling going out. Same thing - if you opt out of the email program, we will remove you from all contact.
We need transcriptionists for many new accounts and have ads on here and other sites, as well as several magazines. We are going to need over 100 MTs in the next 3 months due to new accounts and more work on existing accounts!
Email me....
sandir2@aol.com
I work there currently and can probably answer most of your questions.
The MQ email
Mine always come to me from corporate, listed as QNews...it was the reason the email system was crashing in the beginning because they were so big.
Not sure why some are getting them while others are not? I'd call corporate or maybe send an inquiry from the MQ website?
Could you email me please, sm
