DSG - Rude people, ran out of work, shuffled around on multiple accounts!

The rude rude rude post is TRUE

Endless dribbles
I would have to say 95% of their MTs love the dribbles of knowing where their accounts stand. As an IC they do not owe us anything like that! No schedules, pay on time, hmmm... maybe you just like to be babysat (?) Remember the I in IC is for independent! Heck, ask them to remove you from their lists and this should take care of it!
My only contact with them was rude. The front office person or whomever schedules interviews is rude
This was about a year ago but I set up an interview and either I was supposed to call them or they were to call me at a certain time but I totally spaced off the time change. The lady went off on me and told me that they had no interest in me because I couldn't call on time etc. Rude. There is no way I would ever work for someone like that.
Anyone currently with Oracle? Do they still drown you with paperwork and endless acct.

possibly -- it seems to have finally shut down the endless TT threads ...
I was beginning to think they needed their own board ...

I wasn't following them, but my impression is that they had been going on -- in some incarnation or another -- for several week ...

who would want to work for a company with so many so unhappy employees (even if the internet notoriously distorts just how many people are represented -- since the same people -- particularly the most incensed -- post over and over and over again -- creating the impression of great throngs of angry people)

I have no idea if TT's suit has merit ... just that such suits are not unprecedented and -- aside from unlikely-to-make-much-difference memos to their employees or public notices on boards like these -- represent the only way I'm aware of to defend one's good name.

If this served to educate the many folks here who thought that the first ammendment automatically protected them on line -- then good has already come from this.
DSG - Nasty superviser, endless account specifics changes, no support - nm

Just be rude..out and out rude so they have just cause to "fire" you.. haha..What a bunch of i
Who would want to work for incompetent people like that. Time to change your phone numbers. They are like bad stalkers.
You guys are lucky! The NPs I've had in the past were all extremely wordy and had endless dic-

Broken promises, messed up pay, endless drama. Good riddance!

Rude answer to a rude post. nm

3 words, rude, rude, rude....sm

the owner sends out UGLY and NASTY emails to the MTs. The communication is just a disorganized mess and they hire you as an IC, but pretty much treats you like an employee.  Emdat sucks and pretty much the accounts are not that great.  VERY hard to get your lines in Emdat platform.  They LOVE to FIRE....when in actuality.....(that is the term they use)...you cannot FIRE an IC, you can lock them out of the system and I guess that is firing, but those two words have always been a pet peeve of mine....hearing when MTs are fired as ICs....Just my opinion

Rude, rude posters
Hope you rude posters find a good fit for you.  Don't run down OSi because some of us like them.  No problems either and I have 10 years experience.  No newbies here like you say.  Love the accounts I'm on.  Hope the complainers find a good home, but if not, they will be back and on another company's case. 
It is so rude to call QA rude because YOU have
been stuck on QA hold for six months!! And the other poster above - if you are getting QA notes and they are including your supervisor, which you imply is not the norm, then YOU are the one responsible. It matters not if you've been an MT for 1 week or 30 years - if your skills are not up to par, they are not up to par. Many MTs get cleared from QA hold within hours or days at most - companies do NOT want to hold you up from producing, nor do they love to waste their $ on MTs on QA hold. You really need a reality check. And no, I am not rude! It is always, always the MTs lacking in skills who get pissed at QA - no form of feedback is acceptable to that type - even sealed with a kiss and a big bow!
Rude! Recruiter was very rude to me.
She had an attitude right off the bat.
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.
LOL! Someone has too much time on their hands
I think that is stretching it a bit far. Too funny.

Transcription Connection hands down.
Logs, logs, more logs, spreadsheets. Everything done manually. Tons of scanned patient lists. Even had to look up addresses so the husband could do the envelopes. Insist you count every report with the Word counter (a ripoff). 1/4 of your day spent on crap not included in your line count.

Transtech, hands down. Don't know that much about MQ but was offered a job there when we got out
E-mail if you need more info. 
I have 30 years in and don't make $25K. Hands sm
have taken a beating over the years. The best I ever did was when I was an IC and worked a minimum of 10 hours a day, 6 days a week, 4 hours on Sunday. No social life. No life but MT, really. That was when Clinton was President, all MT work was kept in the USA (tough keeping up with the demand then!), and MT pay was tops.

Nowadays, an MT cannot count on a regular income. So many pitfalls--company buyouts, sellouts, offshoring, lousy technical quality, docs dictating on cellphones, etc.
