We all know who has been posting the negative remarks; ex-employees that have far too much unemployed time on their hands and they spend this free time posting negativity on web sites. Please, seek help, therapy, change your attitude, try to adapt some professionalism and work ethics into your personna, and get on with your miserable life. Your 'sour grapes' attitude is getting so old. Get off of the web sites and get a life.

If you have this much free time on your hands....
In the name of all that is holy, OP, seek professional help NOW.
It will get better, I hope. Too much time on my hands means too much time on ebay! lol nm
Anyone is free to post, not just Axolotl employees
so you don't know who is posting.
Wow, you all have way too much time on your hands.
LOL! Someone has too much time on their hands
I think that is stretching it a bit far. Too funny.
I think there are way too many MTs on this board with 2 much time on their hands-sm
I feel like in am in 2nd grade again.
I got my hands slapped 1 time when my
company even thought I had recommended them, told me they took care of that on their own. Having said that, I would never (underline that never) give the name out to just anyone and I don't know you and know what type work you do? That person then comes back and tells so and so company you recommended them, they are not a good hire and you come out looking bad. I agree with you totally.
Same thing here with the co. I work for..free time is
ok sometimes but I really want to work!
Heavens, no. They are free to leave at any time.
themselves to be.
but it is a free country. People ask questions all the time that
are best answered by a representative of the company in question.
AMEN sister..Better yet. why dont we just do it for free, donate our time to a good cause.
I mean really..we dont need to earn a living or eat. I'd love to sit all day at home making minimum wage. This business has gone down the tubes. I'm just insulted.
They no longer hire part-time and may be eliminating part-time employees within the next 6 months.
They are going to have those that are PT go FT if possible. Some accounts require 1 weekend day, but not all. Most transcriptionists have 1 account with 1 back-up account. I know that they are hiring for hospital accounts in medical records and radiology right now.
There will always be a need for some part-time employees. sm
The above poster was partially correct in that we prefer full-time employees. There will always be evenings and weekends that work well for part time. What she might have meant is that we are not hiring very part time or on-call employees. Part time will mean 20 hours or more a week. The ones that are being phased out are the ones that do 1000 lines max a pay period or less. It does not make sense to use up equipment, etc on MTs who generate little to no revenue for the company. It also makes it difficult to schedule someone who does 100 lines a day a few days a week and everyone else has to work around them.
This should clear things up.
no most are full-time employees...no IC positions
they will hire some part-time but they usually like full-time
Getting hard for full time employees

Any Spheris employees notice a drop in PTO time? SM
Before we got 4 PTO hours a paycheck, now is seems to be 3.38. Has anyone else noticed this? Thanks.
I agree with the above poster. It is bad business to not pay your employees on time. I mean ....
after all, when was the last time you were able to tell your credit card companies, mortgage company etc.. hey, I am supposed to pay your bill on the 15th but it might be later than that, or may not at all. I mean GET REAL. Do these transcription companies not realize you have obligations too and you need to be paid on time. I think so...but they dont pay you..because they can. I would call them and them you want your check by Monday or you will take action, and once I had my check, SO LONG DEADBEATS. You deserve to be be paid.
Webmedx hire part time employees...sm
I'm really happy there. You might give them a try.
Free enterprise. You are free to re-educate and retrain, as well!!!!
What's the complaint?!
MDI-MD hires statutory employees, full or part time. sm
Their web site is www.mditrans.com. They pay well, always on time, direct deposit, and genuinely care about their employees. Good luck!
just one more question....do they have regular full-time employees with benefits or......sm
just ICs? Thanks.
Are there any companies who offer health benefits to part time employees?
Need insurance.
Webmedx PTO rate of 1.08 hours per payperiod and only for Full-time Employees
Webmedx only gives PTO and insurance to full-time employees. No PTO for the first 3 months, then something like 1.08 hours per pay period, starting at 0. If they run out of work or your ISP goes down or your child gets sick and you cannot get in the full 35 hours to qualify for full-time, they want you to use your PTO to make sure your hours add up to 35 that week. If you fall below 35 hours for 3 months in a row, no matter what the reason, they automatically drop you to part-time and take away your insurance. Then, you have to work a minimum of 35 hours for the next 3 months before you will be eligible for insurance again. As far as holidays, if the holiday falls on your scheduled work day, you have to work, unless you ask for it off in advance, but they do pay you for 8 hours of holiday at your normal rate, in addition to any lines you type that day.
I am wondering if employees with Futurenet have a hard time having adequate work flow..sm
Just started there not too long ago, but now finding out I am running out of work frequently. I have several accounts that I can work on, but all are empty most of the time. Have they overhired or is this the normal?
Webmedx has 6 paid holidays a year, separate from PTO, for full time employees.

Free sure. There are free on-line fax
services, in fact I used one last week. Most do have limits on how often you can use and how many pages though. You obviously would have to scan pages into a document, but maybe she doesn't have a scanner either.
She could have mailed paperwork back.
Hands Down, it's......
Amphion. I worked for HealthScribe, and as it turned into Spheris, it seemed more and more work went overseas, more and more perks were taken away, and more and more MTs felt like cattle. I admit, I have not had experience with Medware but I've heard good things about them, too. If you want support staff that supports and genuinely listens and cares, then Amphion is the place to be. Amphion pays higher cpl too, for experienced MTs.
Please do. They need your hands!!

DQS was the best hands down--sm
I worked on DQS for 6 or 7 years with MQ. I never had a problem with sound quality unless the dictator was doing something to mess with it, i.e. cell phone, not holding the phone up to his mouth, holding the phone too close.
I have also read complaints on this board about the sound quality with other companies, and I know that 1 company in particular handles the MQ overflow. I think maybe they re-record it or something when they download the work to that company. I'm not sure, so I would probably stay away from that company.
Other than that, I think DQS is excellent. It's definitely built for speed!

Transtech hands down
:)
wow...you definitely have your hands full...
I have a 2-year-old daughter at home with me while my 9-year-old son is in school...she is fairly good about playing by me, et cetera, so really I think I have it easy as far as she is concerned...but I am most productive while she is napping in the late morning...since yours are so little, I would say waking up before they get up in the morning to work, working during nap times and then possibly later on when their father gets home from work so he can help take them off your hands for a bit...good luck...it is hard work but it can be done...
Wow! How are your hands still holding out
typing that much for that many years! After 10 years, my hands are killing me after half a day. I used to be able to do that much, but it hurts too much now.
