I emailed them y'day, still haven't heard back. Will post if I do. nm

I haven't had enough work at MDI-MD lately.
I get up just to find there's no work. Then it will start coming in and I start working, only to run out. Hard to keep a rhythm going when you keep running out of work.
What lull? Haven't been out of work yet nm

IT will work, though I haven't used it. I HATE
SH with a passion. I used PRD previously and it was so much better. Enterprise needs work. They are frequently updating it so it is getting better, though still have miles to go.
There was a lag in work about a month ago, but now it seems that half the accounts are on OT on a regular basis.
You got your W2 already? I work there but haven't received (sm)
mine yet. I was hoping to get it as an attachment to print out also and not have to wait for it to come in the mail.
I haven't even started work yet, but I have
to say I am SO impressed with this company. Pay is better than average, pay for OT (the last 2 companies I have only been paid normal line rate for extra lines), shift differential. Insurance starts the first day of the month after being hired, so no 90 day waiting period. They may 50% of 401K up to 6%. There is a 90-day waiting period for the 401K and some of the benefits. Free vision insurance. The medical/dental insurance is better than any I have seen and it is very reasonable. I currently have insurance through my husband's company and while the premium is reasonable the insurance isn't very good, high deductible, high co-pay. Their insurance is much better and I think premium is only $10/more than what we are currently paying.
Direct deposit. They supply computer/equipment. I don't have personal experience with the platform yet, but it sounds user friendly. They do expect you to work your schedule.
They train you on your shift, so that if you work third shift you don't have to train 1st shift, they will train you on third shift. Paid for 4 hours of training at 13.50.
I am so excited about starting with them. They did not have an ad running when I applied, but according to their website they were hiring and I submitted my resume. They have testing through a third-party company. Testing is timed and one section gave me a little bit of trouble, but the transcription part was easy and not the horrible dictation that you often get. I don't know if it actually represents their dictation since it is done through a third party and the dictation files I'm sure are subject to change.
I haven't but the company I used to work for asked
MTs to take a cut or risk losing the account because the account wanted to go offshore.
I haven't needed more work - there is plenty on my acct

i don't find that to be true, i work there & haven't had problems with pay. sm

The post above is not from me. I work for Transcend, not MDI
I've been doing my best to stay away from these boards because I find myself being drawn into arguments or having to defend myself for what I say, feel, or experienced. I already apologized for my part in the argument the other day, so why do you feel the need to drag me into another one? I still stand by my assertion that the posts by disillusioned and myself were blown out of proportion by a select few in an effort to change the subject, and it worked quite well. You should feel very proud of your efforts. For a person who is so adamant that it is only the negative posters causing the problem, what is your excuse now for trying to stir something up? Like I said, I don't even work for MDI - I work for Transcend. This post wasn't from me. Lots of people know how to use the bold and color font function above. If you know word processing, you know the text effect functions.
Believe me, you made your point the first time you bashed me for talking about my experience. I really don't want to go through it again and, although flattered, I really don't want a stalker either. You won okay? I will never, ever speak of any of my experiences about Transcend again, good or bad. So, please, just leave me out of your future bashings. Thank you.
Like I said I don't proof every post on here. As far as my work goes,-sm
I proof everything I send in. I retract my statment about you being an embarrassment to the MT community; you are actually an embarrassment to the human race.
if this is not an owner post I will eat my hat! I don't even work there and don't buy this po

They post because someone WILL in fact go to work for them -
Sad but true.
I don't work for TT, was responding to the post
about being slow everywhere. Never said I worked for TT.
No wonder you post anonymously and work at home.
With that personality. Lash out irrationally lately?
Please work on your typing skills - your post has so
flexible, not flexable Spheris, not Spheirs MedQuist, cap the Q appreciated, not appriciated Also, it would be, ... with flexible hours (for those sleepless nights). ... I think if you will have difficulty finding and holding a job with those kinds of mistakes.
In another post, you say that you are 3rd shift. There is plenty of work on sm
other shifts. I spoke to my lead last night, and she is getting 3 new accounts to manage and told me that there are more than a dozen starting throughout the next month.
Isn't that job post from doctor recruiting work and not MTs? nm
xx
Others will post that work for these companies, there are some great
people that post on this board, you just have to overlook a few. Unfortunately I do not work at any of these companies, otherwise I would be glad to give you any information needed. Good luck though!
I have mde over 60K doing MT for the past 5 years. Why are you so hesitant to post who you work sm
for? Yes, I think you are a fraud am I am no jealous in the least. At least I don't have to lie as a part of my daily business. You still, an no other recruiter responding, has had the integrity to post their company name. No surprise.
Actually, I thought her post was professional. Do you work at MDI? I doubt it.
she can most likely weed out the MTs just by their posts anyway if she's dealt with them at all. She did the right thing to simply state MDI MTs can come to her IF they have concerns. It's great to share info, but not ALL posts are by sister MTs sharing the good word. There are many, many who love to incite drama and there are always 2 sides to every story! Anyone can come on here and claim they are great MTs and do all that is expected of them yet are treated terribly by a company, but that sure doesn't make it the truth. About how many MTs do you think are at MDI? And how many individual MTs are here complaining? Not the same posters using different names but single persons. Do the math and figure out from that how many are unhappy at MDI, and my bet is your percentage will be low. I know of a lot of MTs very happy at MDI with enough work. But then I'm sure the naysayers will just claim those are the favorites or something.

Do you even have a clue as to how much one cycle of IVF costs? Try 15K to 20K and it takes on average three cycles to achieve conception...if at all. How many people do you know wait until they have $20,000.00 saved before starting a family? Get real.
Not that it's any of your business, having a child was not a mental issue for me. I initially didn't feel that it would be necessary to share the details of what led up to our infertility because I didn't see the relevance. Infertility is what it is. However, if sharing the details will prevent you or anyone else from drawing conclusions and posting abrasive half-truths, then here goes:
My husband, against my wishes, had a vasectomy when our only daughter was 3. Coming from a big family, I always wanted at least two children. Long story short: We went to Texas for the first reversal and Arizona for the 2nd (5 years ago). We spent our entire savings, which was close to 20k and both surgeries failed. My daughter prayed for a baby brother or sister every night. I had this tremendous burden of guilt because our infertility was self-inflicted. I knew she would never be a big sister or even an aunt because of our selfishness.
Infertility in and of itself is traumatic enough, but when it's self-inflicted, the guilt can be overwhelming. At least it was for me.
There, now you have the facts. However, if you find it more entertaining to post over-the-top fabrications about my complete lack of control and severe mental issues, as you called it, knock yourself out.
I have been pretty honest about my personal life and would appreciate it if you could just answer 2 simple questions.
(1) Dou have any children?
(2) In your opinion, do you feel that insurance companies should cover the cost of elective abortions?
You can just answer yes or no. I'm not posting anymore on this thread so you won't get any arguments from me.
I haven't, but have been looking too
I have also been trying to find something on the internet for these types of listings. There are millions of ads for MTs and QA specialists, but it is hard to find a good site for managment positions. I have had small success with Monster and Hot Jobs. If you do find any other good sites, will you please let us know too? Thank you and good luck with your search. 
Haven't you
experienced everyone Anna? Congratulations on the 2-month mark!
Sucking up on the boards for the boss to see maybe? You might just keep this job.
No, I haven't tried everyone,,,
and thank you for the congrats. I do hope you're doing better these days.
Come to think of it I haven't either
Line counts all in the fingers and the transmission. I better get a tuneup? Sounds like a bunch of hokus pokus to me.
They haven't, I got something
.
I haven't gotten one either yet.
Should be soon, though.
Hey, how come I haven't gotten any (sm)
samples for all the cesspool accounts I get? We get switched from account to account with no samples whatsoever having been provided.
If you can negotiate being assigned a limited number of accounts then your chances at success will be better.
of course you haven't, why would you
How nice of you to brag about it to others, though. Hope it makes you feel better about yourself.
No, I haven't, but...sm
...I've worked on an account that had TONS of abbreviations, a veterinarian account, so they were all new abbreviations, and it was a nightmare. It's so difficult to decipher exactly what letters they're saying, and if you're not familiar with the specialty it can be a nightmare. Of course, they do request chiro exp, so I guess this person would be familiar with the abbrev, but the abbrev part scares me away. Some doctors just seem to MAKE UP abbreviations. I'm just getting back into the game after some time off, so I'm SO dreading the application/testing aspect, which I know all to well can be sooooooo stressful. Good luck! :)
They haven't even been in biz for 7
years....but if you are enjoying your NO benefits, NO holiday pay, NO overtime pay, NO sick pay, on and on, then more to ya babe! Owners are on vacation all the time...just waiting to retire.
No I haven't...
because there is no need to. When a formula has worked for me for several years to the T and suddenly after a program upgrade it changes, I know it has changed. Of course they are not going to tell anyone it has changed. They might not even know themselves until somebody complains. Ooops, got a job, gotta go....
I haven't been to their website in a while, but they used
to advertise about how they had the best MTs in the industry. I worked as a QA and know for a fact that if they are breathing SS will hire them without or without experience, so that is an outright lie. At this point a warm body is about all they can get to work for them and even that might not be for long.
I haven't. In fact...
the thought never even occurred to me till the other day when my Editor told me another girl on the account almost went with them but chose not to. She's now in the same boat I'm in and regretting it, I'm sure. My editor knew people who worked in-house for this account but have since lost their jobs and she has no way of finding out where this account went. I definitely can't ask the owner of the company I'm with because emails go unanswered 99% of the time.
Well, I haven't seen ads like that for some time SM
so I can't help you with company names. The only thought I have is that your best bet would be a small local MTSO in your area.
I already do, and haven't even started yet
I had the most terrific interview! It sounds like a great place to work, I'm thinking it's a good place for me to be. She made me feel *appreciated* ...and after MQ, that's a very nice feeling. It also sounds like I can really just sit down and pound out the lines and make a lot of money, which is what I really want. But the appreciation is nice :) And Bayscribe looks like it's going to be a breeze, PLUS they converted over my PRD Expander file, so I don't have to start from scratch making my abbreviations all over again, terrific!
