Ok - so I had a typo. I am human ya know.

It's human nature.
Grass is always greener on the other side. Human nature. At least there will be green for Christmas! LOL.
Wow! It would take a human robot to do that every day.
It would take me at least 11 hours to do that.
human beings
There is a saying that most Americans are ONLY one paycheck away from being homeless. You say you can identify with being broke and impoverished, like those in India. Well, what if you are REPLACED BY AN INDIAN TRANSCRIBER and you become broke and impoverished AGAIN?
It is one thing to buy flip flops made off-shore from Walmart, quite another thing when VP Cheney's 4 heart bypasses and pacemaker insertions could be vunerable to prying eyes in off-shore in India, or worse their next door neighbor, Pakistan, where AL Quaeda is hiding in the Pakistani mountains.
ANYMORE QUESTIONS!
Can you be human for a minute?
Please, Carlotta, get off your high horse for a minute. You know darn well that accounts have been overstaffed in order for MDI to shine for their clients in regard to TATs. There is a lack of balance going on here whether it is over hiring or something else. There is NOT ENOUGH WORK! We have been out of work for WEEKS! And, Carlotta, you hound the hell out of people and threaten to bring their wages down to an impossibly low rate on a prn basis if they don't live up to their committments in a near-impossible work environment. You are transcription's version of Hitler.
Did you read any of the posts below? Did you read some of the concerns that REAL people, VALUABLE transcriptionists are having? Why don't you or the owner care? You rule with an iron fist, Carlotta. When you try to say how great the company is, it's a real slap in the face for those of us who are out here in the trenches trying be a part of the MDI team and very little in return.
You, MDI, should have an overall feel for the accounts. No, you cannot predict, but you can give us some insight if accounts may be winding down because they are moving to EMR or changing service providers or whatever. You could be decent enough to guide us in the right direction so that we could continue to be valuable to MDI and support our families. No, no, instead we get hounded and threatened about line counts.
Did you read below, Carlotta, how we do go to our 2nd, 3rd, 4th and so on backup accounts? Do you comprehend that we have to mentally change gears to relearn account specifics and the dictators and that really slows a person down? And on top of that, those accounts are SLOW, TOO!
Instead of telling us MDI has the best group of people (management) ever assembled, why don't you listen to the people helping you get your paycheck! Why don't you prove your greatness by being a better listener. Do you realize you are impossible to talk to because instead of listening all you do is e-mail responses that are criticizing and demeaning, to those of use who are sincerely trying to work hard for you.
Come on, please.
My capitalizations are not for yelling, just for emphasis.
Under Human Resources at top, then sm
I think it's under General. There is a link to the updated jury duty policy and then under that is the link to the employee handbook.
guess it IS human. nm

VR will never replace the human ear - Or you could
Tickle Me Elmo:
There is a factory in Northern Minnesota which makes the Tickle Me Elmo toys. The toy laughs when you tickle it under the arms.
Well, Lena is hired at The Tickle Me Elmo factory and she reports for her first day promptly at 8:00 AM.
The next day at 8:45 AM there is a knock at the Personnel Manager's door. The Foreman throws open the door and begins to rant about the new employee. He complains that she is incredibly slow and the whole line is backing up, putting the entire production line behind schedule.
The Personnel Manager decides he should see this for himself, so the 2 men march down to the factory floor. When they get there the line is so backed up that there are Tickle Me Elmo's all over the factory floor and they're really beginning to pile up.
At the end of the line stands Lena surrounded by mountains of Tickle Me Elmo's. She has a roll of plush red fabric and a huge bag of small marbles. The 2 men watch in amazement as she cuts a little piece of fabric, wraps it around two marbles and begins to carefully sew the little package between Elmo's legs.
The Personnel Manager bursts into laughter. After several minutes of hysterics he pulls himself together and approaches Lena. I'm sorry, he says to her, barely able to keep a straight face, but I think you misunderstood the instructions I gave you yesterday...
Your job is to give Elmo two test tickles.
Its human nature
to hear and see the bad. Bad always trumps good and the saddest part of all, the same people trashing it won't come back to post good things after they've tried it and were proven wrong.
every human makes errors.....
we get paid low enough as it is
Could be she has bad days - called being human
maybe it is just the bad applicants with chips on their shoulders and she really does know how to recognize talent from strut talk.
Human? Must be on the cymed side then.
Definitely not the SPI side - those Nashville people are insane.
Firstly, you are a human being, you matter, and you
should never be told to just get out of the business, and whomever would tell you that you take with a grain of salt (because that is useless and usually speak that comes down from management to keep people where they want them).
Until women realize their full worth and potential, this is going to keep happening. Unfortunately, the majority sets the tone and there are too many people willing to work for almost nothing (why I do not know) but in my experience men who never allow this. Sometimes I think we get so preoccupied with wanting to BE like men rather than to make use of some of the good things, such as self-worth confidence but still being women.
Funny but as an aside I see so many young girls out in public and they are exactly the way young boys used to be when I was in high school. The roles have reversed rather than blending the good things of both men and women. That is my opinion
We are all human and things happen! No big deal. Just tell them
you will be taking test sometime during the week. No need to pressure yourself and hurt yourself for a test that you can take anytime.
you're gonna feel like a new human sm
being for sure! Congrats!
Company ok, but the human ratsources and payroll stinks.
They play good game of being KGB, screw up more than anyone else in the company, but never get in trouble, just keep compounding their mistakes. The wondeful programs to keep track of us never work right, but they are so nasty to us that no one wants to work for them. Why is management so blind?
They said they have very few IC positions, and this would be discussed in January with Human Resourc
thus they are going to try to get you to go full-time employee and get benefits and take a lower pay. Did you not notice how she was trying to play up the you will get benes now BS?
sure sounds swell. Sounds like 2350 ln/day @ 4 cents/ln=$90./day
in order to figure how many line needs to be produced to make $500 per pay period. ie, how many lines an hour needed per 8 hour day --at your rate.
So say $450 a week would be $90 a day.
For example, if making 4 cents a line,need 2,250 lines a day, 281 an HOUR (to listen through and edit) to make this great wage of $90. a day FOR ALL THIS SAME SKILL, TO KEEP UPDATED WITH CHANGING MEDICAL COMMUNITY. nope Better at Jack-in-Box Pass it up.
Sounds like it and it sounds like you must tell them when they will be and no change them. Wonder
what you do when there is no work. Well, there will be a lot of problems with this whole plan if they dont get things straightened out with this no work situation.
Sounds like I'm the same age as you!

Sounds like she was trying to -sm
make you quit - probably because they overhired and have too many people. She probably thought she could bully you out the door and have one less person to have to deal with. I wonder if she treats others like that too.
I bet so. Sure sounds like them!!

Sounds like
MedQuist
SM - Sounds like you...
must know this owner pretty well to be bashing him this way. How is it you have come to such an opinion? Did you work in an office with him? I would be very anxious to hear more of your scholarly declarations such as the answer to ending world hunger and obtaining world peace? Please, tell us more oh "wise" one....
exactly what I was trying to say! It sounds like they sm
are on the right track! Good luck to them.
That sounds exactly like OSi.

sounds like mq
There is always someone telling everyone what excellent accounts they have, perfect sound, TONS of work....hmmmm....well, I guess it's nice that SOMEBODY is going to be able to pay the rent cause it sure ain't me.
Sounds about right, maybe even a little low. nm

Sounds low to me (sm)
 I made $3.00 page several years ago. With wages lowering each and every day for the MTs, maybe someone else would like to share their thoughts. Good luck!
It sounds like they are not
very technical-savvy if they need MTs to come in for training! I'd be looking elsewhere.
They can only say no, but it sounds like they can't...
...afford to lose you. YOU are in the catbird seat. Ask for the raise. Really. Do it, and best of luck.
Sounds like BTS in MA. sm
They will take 6 weeks to send you a paycheck for 2 weeks pay, trim 30% off your line counts to supposedly cover headers/footers, and stiff you for your last check if you leave. Leave while you are ahead if it is them.
wow. Sounds like you been there, done that. Thanks for

Sounds like a really nice gift. Mine must have gotten lost in the mail LOL
Sounds like
it might be what they call a vacation -- I wouldn't know really though, haven't had one in so long.
Sounds like...
the company I work for now meets those criteria. Email me if you'd like.
This sounds exactly like the what the
well trained office staff is supposed to say to negativity about the company. I worked for TC for awhile and learned the ins and outs. If you don't mind being overworked, underpaid, all the cherrypicking going on and don't question anything then this is a great company to work for. Not to mention if you are on the CEOs good side and work in the office you get paid trips to Disneyland for your whole family, and can give the MTs as much grief as you want and nothing is said. But if you do mind all this stuff, then as the first poster said run as fast as you can.
Sounds like....
.....Focus
OMG! Sounds just like MQ! lol

Sounds just like what my sm
husband has through work only the deductible is 1000.00 for in network, 2000.00 out of network. No payout until deductible is met,except for office visits. Unfortunately, only one of my doctors is in his network. None of my specialists are. And, the PPO network is very restricted. But we do have prescriptions. It used to be John Deere Healthcare. Now it is United Healthcare.
It sounds rather -

Thank you...that sounds better!
I could definitely live with that! I'm glad I asked more questions. Is Carlotta nice to talk to? That's who I would be speaking with and she seems nice. Do you get samples or are able to see old reports for the ESLs or any difficult dictator? That helps a lot, too. Thank you!
sounds like maybe........
 the police should get involved in this case. Too bad I do not know her, or I would definitely think about getting her and that other lady SOME jail time! Would serve them right, and then throw away the key!
Sounds like one to me

Sounds like
the same company I tried before this one, trained 1 days, worked 2 days, both with no work and quit.
It sounds like
somebody already figured the lines to be subtracted at 133 . . . is that gross lines from the original counting method? If so, then you would need to figure it based on 65-char so as not to cheat yourself. It could be quite a difference, especially when considering the weekly or monthly amount.
Also, if it were me I would tell them that my 65-character count line rate is higher than my gross lines rate (by at least 2 cpl), and that that is standard practice, which it is.
This sounds more like something
The button mashing and burping sound sort of childish. JMO.
Sounds like...
Sounds like the same one I worked for. Trust me, don't walk, but RUN away from these people. She does everyone the same way.
ER sounds like the best bet then..
If you can type that much more on ER, then why bother with acute care? I myself like acute care better, but if I could make substantially more money with ER, I would just go with that.
