I doubt someone who post such gutter humor would

I think this was meant to go under post above.

The way I meant my post is.......... sm
The MT is a cog in the wheel....and a very important cog....of the MT industry. The industry could not function without the MT and the MT will always have a job. BUT technology is the driving force in the sense that it determines what our jobs will be and how our jobs will be performed. ASR will never be perfected to the point that an MT is not needed to clean it up. Not every doctor or nurse practitioner, etc., will go along with the Chinese restaurant type of EMR that is coming into the industry either.
My whole point is MTs will always have a job, BUT if they insist on stagnating and not keeping up with the ever-changing industry, they will become a dinosaur, obsolete and unemployable.
TYPO for above post; meant MDI-MD

Sorry, meant for *not true* post (nm)

My post was calm as well and meant to
are looking at the big picture and trying to be proactive in all arenas of life. I will handle my hatred/anger in my own way and at least am healthy enough to recognize that I feel it. Hatred is a valid emotion - it's what you do with the hatred that makes it ugly versus productive. To date, I have not honestly met an Indian phone rep who has been able to help me efficiently. Some have seemed to grasp my needs, only for me to hang up and find out later they were clueless to my situation. Yes, Indians do understand and are quite accepting when I explain that I wish to speak to a US worker.The US workers always ALWAYS thank me for asking for them, as it does help them with job security. Again, I said I do it in a friendly and kind manner - if the truth hurts the Indian worker, that is not my fault. And yes, if all of us did that every day, you would quickly see the Indian call service centers crumble. That will happen a lot faster than trying to lobby politically or contact my congressman! That's a waste of time - been there, done that. You choose your plan of action and I choose mine. So far, mine is working for me. I found a great job with a great company and I can sleep a bit better at night knowing that I am taking a stand, albeit a friendly one, for our country and our workers, our families. You pointed out something, as did I.
reaching post was meant to go under OP.

sorry, meant to post on main board....nm

Oops, meant to post under credit check
That really irks me that a company thinks they can run someone's credit without authorization - business like them need to pay through the pocketbook - maybe they will learn a lesson.
I don't mind undergoing credit check if I'm told in advance and I authorize it - but I would DEFINITELY go after a company for the maximum penalties allowed  if it ran one without my consent.
From above post. Oops, meant my MTSO support

I don't see the humor in that at all.
I love comedy, but I don't see the humor in putting something like that on the company board. Get a life!
Yes TT please humor us
We are derogatory about you so please don't be derogatory about us. We love TT!
show me the humor! Show me the humor!
well, blow me down!
I love your humor! nm

We thank thee so much for the humor!
Each post you make gets funnier.
Please do continue enlightening us and humoring us.
The OP apparently has a sense of humor and
apparently has to dealing with MTs all day.
You people are unbelievable but then the moon is getting full and you come out in droves. I like her sense of humor as well as her willingness to help an MT.
I am sure she knows the many personalities of the profession and is not offended which is evidenced by her remarks and good for her because if it were me, I would tell you what you could do with your remarks. Trying to help you say by pointing out what was obviously a transposition, I think not. No one on this board is trying to help unless it was that recruiter. Apparently too many out there with not enough to do.
Well, I am glad someone had the sense to see the humor

Maybe I have a weird sense of humor,
but in my 14+ years as MT, I have never heard the term *offspring* used in a report in this context, always children or kids. I have had many animals over the years and so this is why my first thought was that and it just struck me as amusing (need this ever once in a while to keep me going on days like today...only down to 85 degrees at midnight and no air conditioning). 
I think it was an attempt at humor to lighten up what obviously would be a sm
depressing situation for the employees. I don't work there anymore, but I know I would be devastated if I had to take a drastic cut in my pay. Anyone who tells you that you can do 2-3 times the amount of lines doing VR has to have brown eyes because they are full of it!
LIghten up. I doubt the CEO of TT or anywhere else for that matter gives a hoot what us peons think, do, or say as long as we keep those fingers flying and bring them in an income.
Just my opinion.
Insertion of some humor to lighten the mood.

i agree, poor taste in humor.

Gosh, just trying to insert a little humor. Doncha

No sense of humor? Can only think in straight line?

I meant nothing wrong. I meant a friend who can vouch for

I think so. I have lost my sense of humor. I need to get it back. Has anyone found it? sm
I am stressed but I think it will bounce back. Things usually follow a cycle, and this too shall pass.
"Covert operation" - LUV your sense of humor, KittyToes - LOL
WMX-ers, please humor me. Are we seroiusly supposed to make up enough hours sm
to complete the required work week when there is no work? Before everyone jumps on me saying that I am lazy, don't want to work, need to ask for more accounts, etc., give me a break. I am quite new to the company, and I rely on a full-time work week for my benefits for my family. I already have 5 accounts and have asked for more. All are out of work (or so I am told). I have four small children, so working all hours of the night and the wee hours of the morning is not possible on a daily basis (but I am willing to do what I can to get my hours in).
I am asking an honest question here: Is there no leeway at all during the extremely slow holiday months? It is bad enough that I will pull in less money, but even worse that I could lose my benefits. YES I know it is slow at all companies during the holiday season. YES I know I could get a job somewhere else. If a current or past WMX-er could please just give me some insight, I would greatly appreciate it. :-) I got up earlier today to get a jump on things, and I ran out of work earlier! LOL I ran out of work at 10 a.m. (again).
I would not call it sarcasm, it sounds more like 'gallow humor'...nm

Sorry Wendy I meant to post another Wendy
Sorry.
Are you gay or an actor or both, Seymour. No offense but I like a little light humor to make me sm
smile on a day when I have hit the bottom of the barrel.
Glad I apparently put so much humor in your life tonight. You're welcome.
If you work for the hospital in my town, you get a RAISE on a regular basis. When did you get your last raise from your MTSO? The hospital furnishes the MT with a new Dell, pays for the virus protection (mine goes up every year - yup, it does), and pays the internet (yuppers, mine goes up every year). Good for you, count yourself lucky, but don't get too comfortable in your Ivory tower. Downsizing, cpl rate cuts, lots of things are coming your way. You just haven't gotten hit yet, but good luck with that attitude of yours.
Please refer to the statements the above poster mentioned about the brown-nosers and such. My post was not intended for you!!! Evidently YOUR company pays you for some of these things, or are you an MTSO, but mine didn't. Work for myself now on local accounts. Got tired of your MTSOs and the little profit I was making.

No advice, but humor.. my girlfiend calls that "the speed of loneliness"

It was not meant to be nasty. I meant that you should take every job seriously. Just because someo
is their focus does not mean that patients should suffer. 96% accuracy could mean the difference to someone who is on the receiving end of that report. I am NOT QA or management but I am an experienced Transcriptionist who believes that the reports we transcribe need to be accurate for the patient's sake.
That is not what I meant at all! Meant broaden to
Broaden to think leave to other profession if that is what is wanted, dont limit yourself to thinking only can leave to another MTSO. Geeesh.
My post should say the post above not the post below, Sheryl's post to be specific. nm

It's a "fishing" post. Same post a few days ago with numerous errors
ROFL
You are not allowed to post their link on this site. Post
will be removed. It was up last night and post got removed.
Read Spherson's post below, who admits, in the post, they do pay it.

Peachy, your post is interesting, but my post now is irrelevent but
A few weeks ago I went to my clinic where they had recently implemented EHR or EMR, whichever you call it, and the doctor's back was to me the whole time he and I conversed because his nose was stuck in his laptop. To me, it felt a little more impersonal, but I understand he was doing what he had to do, but it seems like the bedside manner may go to the wayside if the doctors can't even look at you when they are asking you questions or you are speaking to him/her. I know this is relevant to your original post, but just an interesting fact that I had not anticipated. Anyone else experience this?
Sorry I meant
just like sm and not dj. I
did not see who correctly who posted first.
Oh, NO!!! That's not what I meant.
I'm sorry it came across that way. I got duped into applying with them by all the rave reviews on the boards, too. Plus, they make no mention of it on their website. I refuse to work for a company that offshores. As for the people who are happy there, more power to them. That's their decision and I'm glad they've got great jobs. I just need something else from a company.
SORRY - meant DRC not DSC
...
As I said, if it meant that much to me I WOULD
figured it was their loss. No biggie to me. All I was doing was giving MY experience with the company, which consisted of being told I would be called back, and then not being called.
THE LAST ONE MEANT FOR MT2
Thanks!
14,000 - that's what I meant to say! nm
