I do not think they care if they can prove it or not. If you watch any of the daytime Court shows like Judge Judy, it is almost impossible to prove Defamation of Character. I think Transtech just wants to send a message that they are watching the MTStars Board and are not afraid to try to track you down if they do not agree with what you post. It is just intimidation to prevent anyone from being honest in expressing their opinion. The Music industry did the same thing to prevent people from sharing free music – bring a law suit against a couple of people and everyone else is afraid to try it.
All it does is cost the defendant money to have it thrown out – and we all know how rich Medical Transcriptionists are that they have attorneys on retainer. LOL

How do you know this? Prove what you say.

You can do this but you need to prove yourself
They are a wonderful company. But, they work slowly watching you progress, in my experience. At first you start on 5 jobs a day and when you are released you are given a primary account with 24 hour turn around and you need to meet your line requirement. As time passes if you continuously meet line and quality requirements, you can ask for more accounts. If you stay flexible and are willing to work nights and weekends this is a plus too because there is more work at those times, everyone wants day. There is no set schedule, but you if you can be there when the dictators and backlogs are that is best. As well, if you have unlimited LD and not just thei internet the whole combination will ensure you a long full-time career at MDI. There are a lot of variables. And you need a lot of patience, but it can be done. Good luck to you!
Nobody can prove to me that I sent
an email if I DID NOT !
'DOUBLE EYE ROLL'
Because they can dig up enough liars to prove it.
We believe it because we need to.
- the schools get away with it the same way every commercial on TV, in magazines, and every other form of advertising gets away with it.
What about recruiters? They only tell you what you want to hear. They even get rewarded for being good liars.
The truth is, no school is needed by anyone to become an MT. Recruiters are unnecessary for ethical companies. Word gets around and they need all the bodies they can hire to combat the truth by coming on to boards like this and expounding on *all the money they make* - it is hard to know who to believe because they do it so well and we want to believe it.
Hope for the future? Yeah, right. How do you pay the bills NOW?
Which prove the point that
when ops calls asks someone if they can help out on an account, they have no idea if would put you into overtime or not. It's up to you to say, sorry, I can't, it will put me into overtime. Easy as pie :)
Well, I do, and have the pay stubs to prove it.
Sorry if you don't believe me. I didn't think it was possible either until I started at KS.
Sorry, but I have the paychecks to prove otherwise
Every account is different, and I lucked out and got two great accounts. My main account is a super easy ER account with heavy templates, which we get paid for, and I easily do 400-500 lines per hour on that account. My secondary account is a basic 4 hospital account, which gives me really long reports, and I usually do about 300-350 lines per hour on that one. So, it is possible to make that much money there if you focus and work hard.
I can't prove that they offshore, but...
I have seen things that lead me to believe that they do, at least sometimes.
I don't think they really have backlog issues. Yes they do send out a lot of emails saying we need everyone to help blah blah blah, but the work always seems to get done in time. With times the way they are, it seems there are plenty of people willing to work overtime to help pay the bills, so others of us don't have to. 
I was just curious how they can PROVE it was you, is all. nm
:
12 cpl to prove you can and will work - Deal?
Deal.
Wouldn't they have to prove who the poster is and could
it being given to them by the administrator of this site? With providers such as AOL and Yahoo, that takes a court order. Is the private information of the people who post here at risk of being divulged to others not affiliated with the management of this site?
Also, how is it you come to know about this endeavour?
(this is not a flaming question, but one asked sincerely)
Let NM prove one thing you said was not true!! Is not possible.
and you were sure right when they are sticking it to you, in the same breath is you'll be so excited!
LOTs KS' MTs paychecks prove otherwise (sm)
$$$$ Mine included. Just do a search of the Forums and Archives. No need to beg for work with Keystrokes! If anyone has to beg to work with them to begin with it's probably because it is not the right fit. Calling to follow up on job interest and begging are two different things. If a company is in transition and very busy, then that's it, they're very busy. Just take it as that not as a luminous sign.
That's it for me! 
Appreciate your kind comments, but TT can prove itself on its own.
Don't pay attention to the naysayers.
TT does well and earns money for its employees to provide a safe good environment and job. All of the things we already know about TT on the board and in our lives speak for TT. It is nice of you to defend against naysayers, but TT can speak for itself and already has. More of these kinds of posts will just fuel the troll fire.
See my post below about breadwinner, defending TT's transcriptionists who provide health insurance for families. This kind of argument is a waste of time.
In other words, I think perhaps we could let other people on these boards talk about their stuff. And if we don't and keep up with this cycle, well that's okay too. People like me will quit looking on here for interesting new things and will work extra to make more money anyway. IMHO
Just did not want you to get your feelings hurt when you were trying to do a good thing.
And your posts more than prove my point!
You know companies that are hiring part time? Post their names on this board in answer to the original poster, for Pete's sake! There are thousands of hits a day on this site, and you think just 1 person is interested in a part-time position? You just want to help 1 person? Nope - I would say that your response has been a prime example of exactly what I was warning others about - someone who appears totally innocent, offering job help, but it has to be private. That goes against the fundamentals of this board. The majority of MTs who have no gain in any shape or form simply post the name of the company that might be hiring - nothing private necessary. Unless, of course, the person who just happens to know a company doesn't WANT the info public. And when the innocent MT gets involved and takes it one step further, a big mess can happen, just as your postings have shown. Again, my initial intent was not to spotlight you. You did that yourself. If I was in a vindictive mood, I'd even be tempted to post what I guess now are your initials along with the companies you happen to think might be hiring part time. LOL.
Again, how can they prove it was here that posted that comment. nm
:
This is the thing that TT will use to prove their case
If you agree with the poster DON'T post your agreement!
Keep it to yourself.
Make sure you can prove your facts before posting, please.
This does nothing but create confusion. I talked to someone in management there today (I'm not with Webmedx) and if anyone knows what they're doing, this person does. They are NOT shipping their work out! Now they have clients who choose to share their work with India, but that's not something Webmedx can control, nor does it reflect on their business.
Chicken Little, make sure the sky is actually falling before you speak next time.
Nope. The PC is mine. I bought it and I can prove it. sm
I spoke with someone at Webmedx who told me that what they are monitoring is the VPN traffic and not the any of the MTs PCs. He said that would be illegal.
I don't know if this is the truth or not, but I have found some handy softwares to protect myself just in case this criminal act is happening on my PC.
when you sign a contract, you prove you are not an employee
if the company is looking for work done when they NEED it done, it is not called an employee.
Sorry to burst your bubble,but if they tell you what is expected and you agree to it, then you are contracted to do that work when they need that work done.
You all can argue all you want, but the facts are the facts. They do not have to use you as a contracter. They can find someone that is willing to do the work when the WORK IS AVAILABLE.
Appeal it & make them prove misconduct.

So easy to say you had 73 as you cannot/wouldnt want to prove that. All heresay at this point
s
Prove it to me then. I'm open for discussion. You can email me at admin@mtstars.com

Didnt think of it cause I dont care. Wouldnt care if
x
Of course they care. They care you make just a tad bit
this way they don't have to shell out the sign ons, the full-time benefits. Oh, they keep watch on how you are doing and their budget. THey will use you til you drop and try to tell you that it is your lack of skills or speed keeping you from the full time pay which a person can't even pay bills with to begin with. Imagine that.. Use your skills, work hard, try your best, do well on QA, but make short of full time so no benefits, no extras, and no paying bills. This adds up to you broke, them rich, and a no-win situation... for the MT that is...
They don't care (sm)
They know they can replace us in about a minute or just send the stuff to India.
And we'll never get a union, there are still people who will defend these horrible companies who cut our pay, etc., so that we cannot do anything.
There are a few MTSOs complaining they cannot find good people, probably because they pay so poorly that nobody will work for them.
I know you probably don't care now,
something happened. You know…things happen in this life that we cannot control. Maybe it was her intention to call you right back and then she was unable to. Maybe if you got down off your high horse for a minute and realized she was only a human, you could have given her a call and gotten a great opportunity. But that's just my take, I'm not trying to flame at you or anything, but when persuing a job, I would think you might have given her another call if you were really interested.
I care too and I do believe that just because
a person works for a company that offshores, it does not mean they are going to lose their jobs. Yes, it would be a surprise that they send ALL their work offshore. Have you seen some of that work?
Well, many of us have to work companies that do a little offshore as a necessity to put food in our mouths so no, it does not generally matter that they offshore as that is a fact of life. All the US MTs losing their jobs however is a surprise and the QA too and THAT is something we should all care about.
I hope all the companies out there open their doors to this circumstance and take a stand against this kind of treatment of our own workforce.
It is totally bizarre.
They could care less.
.
They don't care. sm
They have a whole new audience in India, Pakistan, et al. When AMERICAN MTs finally started rebelling by dropping out of their *organization* they had to look elsewhere for members and it's clear to see where they are going. Don't need them. Never have, never will. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
who am I to say you do not care about others...
read your own posts...you are speaking loud enough for all to hear how much respect you have for other people.
I will let you have the last word, because you have more than proven my point.
Thank you...
They don't care.
If you have ever had in-house escription MTs from the escription company time, then you know how terrible their work is. Our clinic let their MTs work on our doctors all they wanted. TTS is cheap, which is why they got the account. The doctors are also switching to EMR and many are no longer dictating at all. If the clinic had been a decent company, they wouldn't have gotten rid of my department to begin with.
Care to tell us

Think what you want. Don't really care - nm

Why don't we care for the ones already here?
It is 110% my opinion that as a species humans should learn to take care of the children who are already here. It breaks my heart to hear of children bounced around in foster care and sometimes given back to *parents* who didn't want them in the first place. I know there are good people doing foster care - but it's not the same as having someone to call mom and dad and having a home on a permanent basis. There are still orphanages here, maybe not like in Oliver Twist but not a home with a mom and dad either. There is a whole generation of children in Africa who are being orphaned by AIDS and genocide. There are orphans being created in the Middle East every day because of war. There are children in South America living in garbage dumps and being exterminated by the police as if they were vermin. There are children in Asia tossed aside because they are the wrong. There are so many beautiful children already here who need permanent homes and people to call mom and dad. When are we as a species going to get serious about caring for them?
I really don’t care to do because
i really love the acct I work on and feel comfortable there. I don’t know why I should change when I feel the work being doled out to others not on my acct. Wonder if overhired on some accts and now not enough for them. Do you use VR on your particular acct and do you like the one you are on?
Some don't care if you have a second job (sm)
but they will have you sign a non-compete agreement, including Keystrokes. But the big ones such as MQ usually won't let you have a second job. Someone was on this board a while back who claimed she worked for S and MQ, which to my knowledge is not allowed, but that was a while back.
Anyway, if I was you, I would play down the second job; Keystrokes is hiring full time anyway, so it would have to be your first
I don't care where in the US you are sm
charging a client 0.07 is too low. Indian companies charge more than that. Have your friend take a job with a company and earn benes and let those local ones go. No way can be worth dealing with all the office BS for that wage. Trust me, those clients will come back and willingly accept a pay hike after what they see is out there. Even .09 is too low no matter where you are. Nationals are charging their clients between .15-.17 per line and these are clients from everywhere.
We don't really care about you and... SM
your experiences anyway. I figured you hadn't stayed at 1 company, not many of us have that luxury. And I certainly know that it costs money to hire people. But my point is just what I said, no different if she tests them all now or tries one and dumps them in a couple days or a week and then starts another one. Plus, you keep mentioning this equipment stuff, but the OP never said that that was the case. She might very well be just using her own.
they care...
I am not sure what is going on with the pay issues, but I used to work there in work flow and I know for a fact that they value the MTs, so it is not intentional. The VP of the company speaks very highly of the MTs and the wages they pay impressed me, since I remember them starting at 10cpl, and they do straight typing, so that sounds good to me since I am making .04 cpl on VR. I hope things work out for them soon and that you all will be paid on time.
could care less
I could care less about YOUR work reputation, but YOU should care.

About day care
Day care does not raise your kid. Day care only covers you while you are working. The bulk of the child rearing still is done by the tired working mom. Working is a very good example for your child and it is a way of showing your love, providing for your child. Trust me, I did it for years. The only reason I started working from home was that the school schedule had too much time off. Day care isn't raising your kid any more than a SCHOOL is raising your kid.
anyone care for the.....sm
ATSI platform? I believe it's Enterprise? Any other info also appreciated. 
You really don't care?
If you really didn't care you would find something else to do besides write SO WHAT all day. I think you care about finding just ONE person who will agree with you and it's not happening. Well, unless there is another person who signed up and is going to come on and help ya out. There can't possibly be more than 2 of you, could there? 
MT - we just want you to care! Please care!
You may not have gotten that new career, but when one door closes another opens! We all appreciate your opinions. Please, don't go, but just understand that when a company is trying to ram it to us we like to know and we like our fellow MTs to know that the money should be in our pockets not companies who are simply trying to make a fast buck on our hard work!
Good luck to you!
Signed,
Just another MT/Poster here! 
I don't care
I don't care where the owner goes, as long as I get my paycheck twice a month. She runs the company, she is entitled to spend profits as she sees fit.
