I didn't know that. At TransTech we have Stedmans, so I guess they provide it.

Does TransTech provide computers for their MTs? nm
x
My schedule is approved and it is up to Transtech to provide work
They should not be hiring an abundance of MT's to cover schedules just to provide client with such tight TAT, yet not have enough work to cover that MT's schedule that TT approved. A service cannot keep MT's that way. TT has so few accounts anyway, that it is hard to provide enough work for a whole lot of MT's. That is really where the problem lies. They should get out and seek more accounts, rather than hiring and hiring.
I hate to go to the trouble of filing unemployment, but it is getting to that point.
Guess you didn't understand it.
Seymour already works there, hence the mention of one of their clients who obviously is heavy ESL, despite the fact that the recruiter advertises no ESLs. Maybe she means that one particular account, but I can't see placing all new hires on that one account. Silly me, that's what they do with ALL new hires and that's why they're running out of work all the time until everyone quits and then all the cheerleaders come on the board talking about how much work they have. Well, duh....could it be cuz nobody's there anymore?
Oh, guess it is good I didn't then:)

Guess didn't look close enough
Didn't put 2 and 2 together (Jennifer Poole and RC Transcription). So right. We deserve more than 5 cpl. What a rip! Case closed:(
didn't realize, guess I don't then...NM

LOL, guess I didn't read where it said subject (sm)
See, I'm just too dang stressed. Oh well, just don't sell my address, I get enough spam as it is and never read it.
True - why didn't I think of that? So I guess that means

Sorry you didn't get your check. Guess different areas are different.

Guess the moderators didn't like it for some reason.
And only the original poster would have gotten the e-mail stating that their post had been removed.
I had a post flushed once. I wasn't happy about it. But it's their board, their rules, their say-so.
I actually put a message on the moderator board...guess they didn't see it yet (NM)
I guess I was confused...didn't realize poster...
was referring to hourly wages. Whenever I worked an hourly job, lunches were not paid--had to punch in and out.. The 15-minute breaks were paid though...didn't have to punch the ol' card for those.
I just get rubbed raw at the hourly thing because the average at-home transcription gig pays on production and to mandate that someone has to be sitting in front of their monitor from such and such a time or else is just very disheartening. We know we have to work our buttinski's off or we bring home a crappy paycheck and we recognize TATs that have to be met...treat us like the professionals we are and we'll all be happy, know what I'm sayin?
Since this thread is about TransTech, my guess is

Guess I didn't. Heard back within a day of taking the test, sm
but that was several years ago. Depends on current recruiters, I guess.
Thank you. I went to Walmart today, and guess what, they had one phone and it didn't work!. Go

stedmans
It is incorrect in the Cardioscribes template, goofball. Learn to read.
I use Stedmans, but have also used Sylvan, which I think sm
comes with a 30-day free trial period. Good luick in your new job!
Stedmans Smartype
I know that Stedman's Smartype works with Word and will work with ExText on a limited basis. Are there any platforms out there that Smartype will work with?
I'll take a guess and say TransTech as they tell you up front you don't get headers/footers an
b
A nice big Dorlands or Stedmans illustrated sm
reference would be of great help since you've been away for a while. They give definitions, whereas the others are word books, made for MTs who know what the words mean, but need to check spelling.
Vera Pyle's latest book is good, too.
Use online references as a last resort. Many are unreliable.
Happy, didn't you work at Transtech? Or
NM
Didn't that TransTech email about them going to Vegas and us POOR MT's paying for that trip ju
rub us struggling MT's when she sent out that email to us. She didn't say how many went to LV -- just bye . . . we're off!
Enjoy the light of the Dictaphone flashlight begging for a job for you, while we enjoy the lights of Vegas !
YUK ! Totally irritated this TT MT. Sickening, in fact.
MDI-MD (not FL) could provide what you need. :nm
Yes they do provide PCs
You must meet production goals which you have to do anyway. The pay is good with a lot of different types of incentives. My accounts are good with moderate to low ESLs and I'm not running out of work. I didn't need the computer but an MT I referred does use a TranTech PC. Overall great company, smart move on my part.
They provide everything.
They send you everything to include the tower, monitor and foot pedal. You have access to technical support 24/7, as well as management and editors.
By law she has to provide you with a
xx
They provide everything
you need except your type expander. You can request the dictionaries, and if they have any licenses, then the IT man will download it for you. Otherwise you may have to provide your own. I never had trouble with payment. Good luck!
I didn't say I didn't care, I just don't understand
why the sudden outrage over HL offshoring.
don't they provide equipment...sm
even if you are an SE. I know I worked as an SE for them before, and used their equipment. So, why were you providing your own?
Yes...Thanks for any info you might provide. nm

Regarding benefits, they provide
health insurance, life insurance, and PTO. I am returning to KS after having left there a few months ago to go back to MQ. Big mistake, as we all know. When I was at KS from April to August, the benefits were okay, but I am told that as of Jan 1 they are going to be really good. They are changing insurance carriers to a much better company and are in the process of supposedly putting together a benefit package, which includes the former benefits of life insurance, health, PTO, etc as well as an incentive package. I start back with them on Oct 31 and I can't wait! I should have never left in the first place, but I guess we all make mistakes in this profession.
I think all companies should provide a PC...
With any other job in an office they don't say You'll have to buy your own computer! :)
They will provide the C-phone - sm
foot pedal and headset. You pay $15 each pay to lease the c-phone.
They do provide a computer...
don't know about their insurance, tho.
They provide a lot of heartache too

Does MDI-MD provide a computer? NM

What companies provide PCs?
I am not sure if they provide a computer...
but they do provide the software that you will need. They are an AWESOME company to work for, at least that has been my experience (I am currently employed with them on the dictaphone platform), and they do offer medical/dental/vision, sick pay, vacation pay, holiday pay, and maternity leave. It is based on your line count x the minimum lines they require per week then divided by 40 hours, to come up with your hourly pay...for example, if your line count is 0.6/per line (just a figure I am throwing out to give you an idea), then multiply that by 5000 lines (which is the minimum lines required per week) equals $300/wk divided by 40 hours equals $7.50 per hour. That is what your holiday (+ lines for the day if you work....so double time of sorts), vacation, sick leave, maternity leave, etc. would be based on...hope this makes sense. (Sorry if any typos, it is late, and I am tired but wanted to reply....I hope I have at least helped!)
Yes, they provide computer.... sm
When I got pregnant, this was with a different company and a different insurance plan (not transcription related) 8 years ago, but I did get maternity leave that was paid. I don't think our insurance at Webmedx has maternity leave, but it does have short-term and if you are out of work 14 days that kicks in, so that may apply for maternity leave as you take FMLA, I think. I am not totally sure, though, on our insurance or how short term disability works, but that is what I was told before when I inquired. If out of work 14 days, short-term kicks in at a percentage of your regular pay. You can get more details when you call. :) Good luck to you. Just know that when you search you will find what you want. Hang in there.
They provide computer, but there is no sm
rental fee for it. I think there may be a deposit tho. Not sure about that.
Yes they provide computer - sm
and you have to use theirs. It's a great deal though, you get a brand new Dell computer with flat screen monitor, foot pedal, etc. It's strictly for work, nothing else can be loaded on it and no one else can use it. Helps to make sure you are maintaining a HIPAA environment and they provide full 24/7 tech support - it breaks - they FedEx or UPS a new one ASAP. No rental charge either - I think there may be a deposit now though. It comes already loaded with all the software and VPN client stuff.
They provide shorthand and sm
you have to have high-speed internet connection. Even with that, the last few days the platform has been iffy. They like to blame it on the internet, but they platform is the problem. Cuts out constantly. Lots of downtime.
don't provide unless hired.
If you are definitely taking employement I would provide it but you don't have to, to be considered.
MDI-MD does not provide computer.

Does TT provide the computer? NM
xxxxx
Do they provide equipment?
Also, do they have IC positions?
Is it possible to type clinic work only?
They do provide computers, but there is a
charge per pay period, I think about $9 or so. You cannot use the new Window Vista. Everything else they will download if you use your own computer. I took a pay cut to go there but am very happy, and they do have bonus incentives. The accounts are pretty decent. Staff is extremely friendly and cooperative.
They will provide pedal if necessary
.
They used to provide the puter, don't know about now. nm
s
provide me E-mail id
can anyone else provide me E-mail address of PACE TRANSCRIPTION & MGT. SERVICES, INC., EAST LONGMEADOW, Massachusetts
their website says they provide PC
I happened to be looking on there today and I believe I read that.
