now that was funny ;-)

Constantly ran out of work to QA and was expected to type in order to make any money.

Not sure why you are complaining. You make NO money doing QA for DSG, typing is the way to go.
....and then there is there fabulous HAHAHA $12.50

Downtime? hahaha

There has been no mention of that and I'm sure it wont happen.


When the system is fixed, the most we'll get is double the amount of emails telling us how much work there is and how we all need to give us food/sleep/bathroom time to get it caught up.


I know how to do ESLs hahaha
Where did you get the impression that I do not know how to do ESLs!  I have done them for years at above 99% QA for crying out loud but 80% you cannot make a living doing, at least the kind of living I want!  I am only willing to do 20-30% and have never settled for less....  My question was about VR, not ESLs.
hahaha welll.. (sm)
I'm a tier III and still don't get paid for op notes, so don't feel toooo bad - my cpl is less than yours. ;)

Oh great - Another psychic employee!! HAHAHA
How about just saying yes, it is 70% of your line rate instead of making up rumors.
Hahaha, don't hate me, but I have the beautiful NJA screen right now!!
And I am very happy to see it. Off to drink a hot cup of coffee and bask in the warmth of the morning sunshine.

Ta-ta.
Amen to that.. and we are mad as heck are not taking it anymore...HAHAHA

You're right! Hahaha My typo totally messed up the meaning!
Yes, MQ is aware of my other position. I was very up front with them when I took their offer. Spheris probably would not be happy about my situation, I agree.

My other comments were made because no matter what I post, someone has got to be interested in what I'm doing or not doing, whether they think it is right or not, etc.

My whole post on this thread was an answer about great companies. I posted. Then, if you'll go back and look at this entire thread, I am the one getting all the virtual "you can't do that" complainers on my back.

It's not anyone else's business. One of the OPs started it I suppose with the trying to tell me I can't post on this forum because I work for Spheris and I can't use their computer. Then others chime in. Then others start in with what they think I can and cannot do.

It's none of anyone's business. I wasn't addressing any of those subjects whatsoever.

I seem to be prime fuel for the flaming activities, regardless of the subject of my posts. Even if I respond to others, 9 times out of 10 I get flamed and for other subject matter most of those times.

Hahaha, you are right in your answers to some of the other posters. You and I are having an adult conversation and understanding each other well, even if we disagree. THAT is how it should be.

As I answered you somewhere in this same thread, I understand what you were bringing to light for others who may not realize about working for more than 1 company. It is a gamble. I agree wholeheartedly.

It isn't just the competition between Spheris and MQ though. That expectation is with other companies as well, maybe not all, but most. And most, if you read the employee handbook imply that they do not want their employees on forums like this.

One of the OPs stated that I signed a contract with Spheris forbidding me to be on this forum. No ma'am. That simply isn't true. I went back and looked at everything I've signed. I've signed no such contract. There may be an implied policy but I have not signed any such contract.

I personally think that each company has really good aspects. I can also see where each could improve. That will be with any company though. As long as I am well paid and have flexibility and opportunity, I'm a happy clam.

Hahaha! Pitiful and ridiculous comment. A lot of posters, as 1 poster even mentioned
in this thread, immediately stop reading a post full of GRAMMAR mistakes, NOT typos, before getting the 'issue.'

How can one respect the opinion of a poster whose grammar is a catastrophy, especially from an MT?

The 1st question that pops into my head is, 'How did this person get an MT certificate?' I am not talking about typos, incorrect grammar only.


Hahaha. Good April Fool's Day joke but gotta break the news to ya,
:+
Yes, I finally did.
Very, very small local company. I'm crossing my fingers that this will be my home for awhile. It's been a difficult journey trying to find some place that did what they said they were going to do, doesn't offshore and has enough work.
FINALLY!

Finally someone saying how pathetic it is to see those types of posts and them not take it off the board!  I posted one like that a few months ago and the "board patrol" wiped it off here that day! 


You are correct.  So many of the people act like teenagers on this board that I have found myself coming here less and less.  It's no fun to sit and listen to griping, complaining, cussing, and down right rudeness on here all time time. 


We should be coming here to get away from that!  Let's party!  Have fun!  Be happy!!!!   


Finally...
I applaud you.  The others need to pay attention.  I give you A+ for what you said.  That was well said.
YEA - SOMEONE finally GETS IT!!!

do you think they are finally (sm)
doing what most others are doing in being so cautious to meet the TAT that there is not enough work to go around? Wondering...
FINALLY!!!
This is a refreshing change. Thank you SO MUCH for not being all doom and gloom like the rest. Its nice to hear that there is a glimmer of hope out there.

PS... We probably don't hear from MTs like you very much because you're actually out there working instead of here (like me) transcribing my thoughts for free.
Hip-hip Hooray, finally
someone explains exactly what is happening at MQ even at ST.Louis office. They put so many people on the accounts, you get switched back and forth from account to account. It is feast or famine in a way. During my scheduled shift, which they asked for, there was no work. If I was willing to switch accounts daily and multiple, and sit on the computer and wait for work, I could make the line count, but I had to sit and wait and watch when the work was available. This was ridiculous.
I finally learned
after three months of lies and late paychecks I quit. Great docs, but if you can't get your money, it doesn't really matter. Don't do it!
FINALLY THE TRUTH ABOUT OSI
About a year ago one of the owners, Andy Renfroe was speaking for all of the owners and sent a companywide email after OSi got caught sending work to India. This is a portion of the email that he sent to OSI employees, and this is why people quit and are still quitting OSI in droves - because OSI never admitted this until they got caught! This is the truth and you can take it with a grain of salt if you want to.

I always did. I finally left. nm

RAD MTS-good pay finally

Just got put on an acct for 9 cents per gross line plus $1.00 per report, did not know how it would work out because by other account pays 14.5 cpl.  Well, let me tell you I am making 10-13 dollars more per hour, what about that!!!!


They finally did pay me Friday
Well I finally did get all my pay, minus the western union fees. But what it took me to get it was almost not worth it.
OK finally an answer!
Well I guess you realize you've just identified yourself...

From what I can see you are upset about 50 lines a day; 1/2 of 1% 0.50%. Yes that adds up over a payperiod, but it's still a small difference.

How many lines did you lose doing all this posting? :) kidding.

It's up to you how much you stress over this, but you may see conspiracy here when all it is an internal calculation that doesn't count a signature line for example - where your counters do.

Is it really outside the realm of possibility that there is no intent to defraud here?






finally quit!
just quit my job yesterday and a weight has been lifted.  I had been experiencing a lot of issues in the past 6 months and finally thought to my self, I've had enough!
I finally did leave!

Paradise has been found right here in my own back yard.  Actually, it was always there, I just needed to kick myself in the arse to make the move back there...so glad I did....like you have no idea how glad!  I actually LOVE my job again.  Small MTSO, lovely ladies, not too bad pay, and the best part is the the mental anguish has completely disappeared. 


I feel so badly for the people still trapped there.  There are some fantastic people there who deserve so much better but, like me, have to stay because, well, you gotta do what you gotta do.  If I still had to carry insurance for my husband, I'd still be there, pissin' and moanin' and growing more bitter day by day. 


My faith in home-based medical transcription has been restored and yes, I feel rejuvenated and back to my old self again.  Thanks for askin!


Thanks KS MT...she told me 2/1 so hopefully it will finally be 3/1..otherwise, I will just (sm)
have to drop mine until I find a plan on my own.  I just can't afford over $500 per month anymore.
finally someone who knows what they are talking about
wow!
Thanks to both of you for the support. I *think* I am finally done with the Q...sm
after spending a productive day with potential employers.

I'm just afraid someone is going to pinch me and wake me up from my dream of finally escaping.

Finally...somebody..Bingo. Thank you cm... NM
x
finally, someone else who feels the
way that I do. We are all human beings with feelings and deserve to be treated as such. Thank you.
Finally someone speaks up for the MTs...sm
and tells it like it is.  It's sad that the MTs, who are the mainstay of the transcription business, consistently get the brown end of the stick.  MTSOs and QAs are the only ones that have a right to make a living, right?  Our kids deserve to eat 3 meals a day, just like theirs do.  The busy MTSO and the QA who thinks filling in blanks or looking something up is beneath him/her needs to wake up.  Since when is their time better than ours?
She must have run away finally..what a loon...nm

The ax finally falls at TT

Email went out today that everyone is now being asked to make speech editing a part of our daily routine!  Stated traditional is now the exception and not the rule anymore and we must all move in the same direction to remain competitive. 


This was the LAST thing I wanted to hear, but I sure knew it was coming judging by the way work has dwindled compared to what was available a year ago, whether it be holidays or the middle of the year.  I have no desire whatsoever to move towards speech and I am very upset knowing I have to.  It is not that I am against trying it, I have just gathered the opinion from this board that more than not do not like it and do not make as much money.  I absolutely cannot afford to take a cut in my paycheck in these times. 


Not even 1 hour later came another email touting the great responses and lots of them!  Well, everyone at TT already knew they could try speech at any time...so why wait until today to inquire if they were so excited? 


Good day gone bad for me....


I'm glad someone else finally said this...
It seems in some ways as if TT will hire just about ANYBODY.  I too have been shocked at the quality of the transcription from some of the other TT MTs.  TT just doesn't pay that well, either.  I do like the people in the office.  They are very nice.  But, unfortunately, nice won't pay my bills. 
FINALLY, offshoring to take a hit.
Did anyone see the news conference this morning where the administration is going after the offshore companies?  No more tax credits/loop holes for sending OUR jobs overseas.  Yay, yay, yay!  Now, maybe we can finally turn things around.
Finally, someone with a bit of sense about her
I am glad someone figured this out. You bottom lined it, out of a job, life is going on for the company as before.
I am finally working with KS after 4 times
of tyring to get the hiring process completed. I have to say that I am not at all impressed. I'm glad they don't hassle you but they need to make sure someone is trained properly. I have not received any kind of feedback at all so I supoose I must be doing okay; however, no mention has been made to continue my training after asking several times for a more "proper" training.

I give up! I'm looking AGAIN as I quit my old job, of 3 years, to work for KS. Guess I should have listened to the posts more closely! Live and learn I guess.
Finally found something decent sm
10 cpl weekdays and 14 cpl weekends,  YES!!!!! what company you may ask, email me privately, she is in need of at least 3 MTs.
