I believe the poster's moniker is a clue. ;)

Same moniker but different MT
Yes, they offer part time, but no benefits. The requirements are 1/2 of what is required for full time. I started full time and went part time also because of health issues. Since I decided there are more important things in life than money, life is now wonderful and I have the best of both worlds.
Someone else also uses the same moniker, but
I have provided my suggestions to TPTB at Webmedx on how to improve the system.
If the platform is slow and you can't make lines than your paycheck is going to be less. The people can me as nice as can be, but that isn't going to pay my bills and I don't need the benefits.
If I were the only one that had an issue with Enterprise there wouldn't be the e-mails and the postings on the community board promising to make it better, so obviously there are others with issues with it.
duh, I never even looked at your moniker
I would ask for a different primary, but I'm not sure I would go into details with your liason at the risk of jeopardizing a good working relationship with him/her. Good luck.
how about 'retard' as a moniker for you...sm
It does not matter how short or elaborate a moniker is, it can be traced through the boards, comprende??
That's what you obviously want to avoid, making you totally anonymous.
Comprende?! Obviously NOT.
How old are you? 80?
this is what I mean: If we post under a moniker,..sm
we are not totally anonymous. Posters on this forum recognize and know YOU as 'Fed up,' it is your forum name.
Posters who post without a constant moniker, those are the really anonymous posters and usualy the most offensive ones.
What about posters who use different moniker for

Your moniker is Overseas MT, which is very confusing.
Your post was fraught with errors. You didn't even get the gender of the owner right.
I realize this is a message board, people write quickly and are bound to make typos. Many of your errors simply weren't typos, though.
If I were an MTSO reading your post, I don't think I'd invite you to work for me. Sorry.
Like 'it" is a great moniker? LOL nm
Glad to see your moniker back, have
missed you, GP. You hit a nerve with me because I was employed at a hospital, but laid off in 2007 because they were going to save so much money using India or Pakistan, but there's this: By the time they pay QA and editors over here American money and pay the tx's over there, where did they save any money? The equipment is the most exorbitant expense which they still are paying for since they are the parent company of this fiasco. Where they could have saved money was getting away from physical charts and letting go half of the gossiping clerks they had in the clerical side who were mostly concerned about their next dinner, luncheon, who was doing what and how much WE might or might not be making! oh, well, off the soap box...for now.
Your post was ugly and your moniker was a
slap in the face. I don't know the situation, but why kick someone when they are down.
Love your moniker - gave me a laugh. nm
:-)
I use anonymous email. If I use a moniker it isn't my real name.
It's been like this on this website for a loooong time now! I've been posting anonymously for ages, so I don't know where you get the fact that you can't post anonymously anymore. The email I use is for this website only and doesn't even include my real name.
It's as anonymous as it gets without having a bunch of spam posts invade the boards.
I've liked it for a long time now and still like it. If you don't ... then, well, you know...
I know, but some posters use it as moniker too, especially when typed with capitals..sm
Imagine, I even know that 'sm' means see message, wow, ain't I smart!
need a clue!
Wanting to know what company is considered one of the "better" places to work for? I have been offered a few positions, but after looking at the posts here, its kinda scary! Thanks much!
I don't have a clue.
:)
Does anyone have a clue (those of you that
work for Amphion) why people are cheerleaders for them? They are not that great - the pay is only so-so and the people are not THAT nice. just wondering.
Not a clue....
I have worked for Cymed for a year now. I never received the notice about not receiving a full check. That's all new to me. I have never ever had a problem with payroll, so I have no idea what that whole thing is about. I work out of the Virginia office, so maybe it's different. I have no idea.
you have no clue
If so, have not a clue on this can you
send me an email. I did not want to call a name or a company. I would really appreciate it. Thanks! If this is the 1, I will definitely let you know.
Does anyone have a clue?
Hi all!
I tried searching the archives, but I could not find much. Anyone have any info on this company based out of Porterville, CA? 
TIA!
Well sorry I have no clue about
pay per line cuz I have done this for 10 years being paid per hour so I have no clue honey
Get a clue....
There are no rules here that one must use a moniker... get over it! It's offensive to say something is retarded. Grow up!
Amen to that - and they don't have a clue. nm

Sorry - I guess I have no clue what
I was working on before, I was told it was DEP, but obviously not.
WHEN are companies going to get a clue sm
MTs are the BACKBONE of ALL MT companies. We literally generate every single dime that goes into a company. IT guys don't generate income. QAs don't generate income. The team leaders don't generate income. The fat cats at the top don't generate income. WE DO AND WE ARE THE ONLY ONES!!!
If companies want to make more money, they should not outsource or offshore. They don't need to go to VR either where the equipment is expensive to buy and maintain and you still have to have an MT to edit that crap. No, what they need to look at it how to maximize their MTs. You ask them up front what they can do, what they want to do and where they see their career going. If the company thinks they can make the most of what the MT wants, then go out and keep finding more accounts to make the MTs happy. They will work to build user friendly platforms that are all Word shells, not wonky excuses for a word processing program. They will offer benefits AND IC contracts. They will get QAs out of there who lack people skills and MT skills. They will encourage Expander training and use so that those who mistakenly think that autocorrect is an expander will have the opportunity to make more money for the same amount of time spent.
In short, they will understand that our work pays everyone's salary, so keep us happy and treat us like the skilled professionals we ARE and not like typists or typing machines.
ewww just gets on my last nerve.
Thank you, thank you for that much appreciated clue.
we're talking about a perfectly dreadful typing congomeration. Am I right?
I'm in CA, Fatcat...No clue where you are
But lunch without sitting at the computer waiting for work to trickle in sounds FABULOUS!!!
You all have no clue what you are talking about - sm
I work for Deb and Aces UP, 2 years plus now. The client does this to save money, they are billed at a lower rate then if we straght type a report, kind of like what many of you do with VR. The doctor brings forward the previous report the patient had (we don't have to pull it, but if we have to go get it because they were too lazy to get it then we are paid it as straight typing and a new report), then they dictate a new Interval History, changes to the ROS, PE, Labs, Assessement and plan. Leaving in everything else previously dictated unless told to remove it which is rare. I can do a 5 minute dictation in 10 minutes, then yes, I get paid for the whole report.....not just what I typed, yes it is a lower rate than had I typed a whole report from scratch, but I only typed a portion of it, maybe 25% if that. So on a good day I can churn out 6 brought forward reports an hour, over 600 lines easy and get paid for all 600. If you have the dicipline to sit and not get distracted it can be very good. Also on the plus side no demographics to enter, report types, etc. It is all done, all you do it pull up report, the voice file loads, copy and paste the previous report into your MSWord, type the report, copy and paste it back into the platform, easy. No BS. 24-hour TAT, no set hours, just do your work in that 24-TAT and everyone is happy. I am quite happy there. I have 7 doctors I work on, no pool work with 300+ different dictator, so thumb your nose at that. Plenty of straight typing as well. I really only have 1 doctor that does the brought forwards, my other 6 are straight typing. Also plenty of work, too much sometimes but I'd rather have feast than famine.
No the hospitals would not have a clue
how could the hospitals know why MTs abandoned their jobs?
Do you have any contact with hospitals now?
Take a more practical and rational approach- beat the MTSOs at their own game. I am NOT anti-MTSO, I am just saying if you really feel abused by these companies - BE THEIR COMPETITION!
Just as there are "oldies" who don't have a clue.
The experienced MTs at my company are the same ones that cherrypick and won't do ESLs (not sure if just lazy or can't do them). They also make a ton of errors on their reports. One of them consistently spells medications wrong, even after warnings from our AM. Some don't bother looking up referring physicians to double check the spelling (again, don't know if laziness or they don't know how to Google). Yet, these MTs make 1 cpl more than I do because of their experience level. I may not be perfect, but I do take pride in my work and produce approximately 2000 lines a day with at least 99% accuracy, even as a newbie. I also do a majority of the ESLs since everyone else just skips over them. I have been told by 3 different account managers that I have a knack for ESLs and understanding accents. I was also pre-med in college and have an extensive background in the medical field, so I am very familiar with terminology, pharmacology, procedures, etc. Yet, I am just a newbie, so I get paid less.
Maybe rates shouldn't be based on the time on the job, but on actual skill level. If you are bringing in more money for the company and are doing harder work types (or more ESLs) than others, maybe you should be paid more than the other MTs who don't make such a contribution. Of course, that is jsut dreaming.
I have no clue but that MTSO was probably just jerking you around.
I do hiring and there is no such list to my knowledge. I know I know others that do hiring for other companies and we never talk about candidates at all. No names are ever mentioned and there is no such list. Besides, a candidate that might not fit one company might be a good one for another.
This black list is bull.
oh boy.. no clue where the rest of my post is.. sm
maybe I'll have time to rewrte it then... hmmm
No clue. That's the info they gave me. sm
They are in Farmington, NM. Cannot find a web site for them or anything with the BBB.
their slow response should be a clue as to how they run their business.
I know.
have no clue, but based on their pay @ .04 editing and .08 for transcribing (saw on a job ad), I wou

If they use the hospital's system, the choice is not theirs. Get a clue. nm

she used to be the secretary for the chief cheese -- no clue!!! don't do it.

I hope so because I have no clue what this post is talking about!

and also, tech people don't have a clue what they are doing when u ask them a question
All they want to do is come into our computer because they know absolutely NOTHING about what they are doing. It is dread each and every contact made with the tech people at TT. Time-consuming training by the MT for the tech people who are salaried and not being paid by the line. J____ was absolutely EXCELLENT and HELPFUL. Another sad  situation when he left. Tech not been the same help since then.
No clue, all I was told is it's a huge new account.
If it's west coast, that's scary, I do west coast accounts now for another company and they're all horrible. This one I'm supposed to be doing is on Enterprise platform?
I got the chapstick too. I honestly have no clue why they bothered sending anything.
nm
C'mon, give us a clue. Where is this, how did you find it, IC or employee? nm

I guess our clue is supposed to be when we run out of work all the time?
nm
I want to clarify something... i have no clue what they are planning in the upcoming days... and it

I disagree. I don't blame them for wanting to clue some people in. (sm)
Some people obviously have a lot to learn about applying for a job. They covered such things when I went to business college in the 1980s, but I remember when I was a secretary in an office, seeing the IC Transcriptionist come into the office wearing outfits I would never be seen in public in, let alone a professional office I was getting a paycheck from.
Any clue who the company is hiring the Newbies/nonNewbies sm
on the job seekers board?
Word global should be clue. Perhaps their main office is

You obviously haven't a clue what you are talking about. TT has NOT lost any accounts. TT is NO
having financial troubles. Dictaphone does NOT control the money or the accounts. I would strongly suggest you refrain from posting that erroneous information here or face the consequences.
And your post shows that you have absolutely no clue of what it takes to train a new MT!

It was a test for a company and I have no clue if you had to download drivers. I would not care to
do that to take a test.
