I put mine on the board but got scared and deleted it after a day

Did not want anybody and everybody reading my personal business. I guess I like to e mail my resume privately. Though I am curious what response I'd get, I am too chicken to post it. Plus I am always worried if my present employer were to see it on the board LOL. Isn't there a chance of that? Oh, well. It's nice to hear it works if you get the guts to post it. :)

Why do my posts on the main board keep getting deleted?
All I asked was if there is a company out there with a platform like Precyse - where you can look up the old reports by doctor, or by patient.  What is so wrong with that? 
I have deleted one of your posts. Do not post names of employees on this board. Thank you. nm

ooh I'm really scared
No seriously, this woman had it coming.
that would mean a bit scared, not bid obviously
nm
about what are you so scared?
Is it the 'shortcuts'? If yes, I can completely understand you.

I never use the shsortcuts, I keep correcting using my mouse.

They say that using the shortcuts makes it faster, but this is not proved yet.

What else do they teach you in this 'VR training?'
Besides the shortcuts, is there something else to teach?




You are welcome! Oh, just scared about the
Needing to make a decision and majorly gun-shy about which company... again, sorry about the confusion before, and guess if TT isn't hiring I will not worry about them anyway. Thanks again.
Scared? Of what?
I am PAST retirement age. I have nothing to be scared of. Am already drawing SS and other retirement checks. I could walk away now if I wanted to. I stay because I happen to love my job and the extra money I love to make. No ONE when I had to make it on my own was in my corner so basically, this is a virtual world now. I do mine and others do theirs. End up in what same boat?? Makes no sense, your post. The OP was stating that she had a friend who hurried thru reports and there were lots of mistakes because if not hurrying thru was docked her pay. Read that again and then get the true meaning of this thread.
yes. you should be very scared if they did sell.
SPI is a bunch of crooks.
I think they're scared :-(
I think a lot of them have been there a long time (judging from their posts on that board), and I think they keep hoping for the best and that things will turn around, but from what I see on the outside looking in, I don't think it's going to happen. I think a lot of them are trying to get out but just haven't had any luck doing so (yet). I can't understand how many of them are managing when it seems a lot of the service areas are in a 'NJA' status so much of the time. A friend of mine works for the Q and she still has plenty of work; however, she works at night and it's basically straight transcription, so I'm sure she's just prepping an account to go to VR and then on over to India. She says she's intending to wait them out until they fire her so she can collect unemployment. Perhaps a lot of them feel the same way.

Oddly, I almost accepted a position at the Q about a year ago (still have the entire offer packet, etc.), but turned it down when something a little more interesting dropped into my lap. I've given thanks the past several months, watching the Q implode, that I took the other offer. My nerves couldn't handle that kind of job stress.

Sounds like you and I are both fortunate and have great employers with good accounts. We're very, very blessed compared to what those at the Q have to deal with.
It sure scared ME off! (And I've been looking).

People are scared to ask questions
Why can't people just ask questions here without being scolded for things that have absolutely nothing to do with what they asked? If you don't know anything about the insurance, just don't say anything. How does it help anybody to hear about your own prejudices? Probably a lot more MTs would join in a discussion if they didn't get pecked to death. If you don't have anything positive to say to them, just don't say ANYTHING!
you were scared of switching companies?
nm
to each his own way. too scared, then don't, find your own path. sm
every company has a web site, just sent it to them periodically.


lol! i'm not mgmt and not scared, just wanted to
share my opinion. I'm just a plain 'ole MT, wouldn't want to be in management or an MTSO. Had a couple of my own local clinic accounts some years back, but one of the doctors went out of business, and I gave the other one to a friend because I was tired of driving 30 minutes one way to pick up tapes and deliver.
Scared Speechless!!!! Today is the first day
YIKES! Starting TODAY! Training, going to VR.  Have been in denial about the whole thing and now it is here, and can't affort a dime of cut in pay.  Blaming myself for thinking positively and not getting something else... Is anyone else frightened.. and if you are not scared, please words of comfort... because the rent and big bills due from this paycheck and the next. Thanks in advance for feedback!
No the loss of pay isn't fun and the reality is that I should be scared.
Only one responsible for the bills, no time to sit on my hands so to speak! Wrists resting or not... I am sorry I absolutely cannot take a dip in pay. Just got off the phone with my car loan and they will defer the payment but I had to give a reason why and then they will call my employer and verify I work there... isn't that something... Also wondering how I am going to pay the rent on the first... Just had to put 400 bucks to repair my car just in the last 2 days. Nope. Reality is I personally don't have the time to wait it out and see how it goes. I have to make as much money as possible, yesterday, so to speak. This was where the fear is. Not in the training. So, I count my days until I am safe and secure in a job where I know my paycheck will pay the bills and that is what I am working on while I look for a school to retrain for something else, while I work doubletime here at my job now to keep up. So, that's the story folks. Trust your instincts like the poster down below said. Everybody's situation is different. But with no second income, the time to move is now, not later. As the car loan lady said... Don't let your next payment be late... and guess what I will heed her advice!
excited in a scared hopeless kinda way

I think the 'scavenger' post finally scared her away..nm

Thanks for setting the record straight. I was going to apply with them but that scared me off. NM

I bet you 1 million $$ you won't find one on mine. Mine is
2 years old and it does not have a 9-pin serial port, nor does it have a game port.   I have used both ports on other computers so I know what both ports look like.  I also have a company provided computer and it does have the ports on it. 
Just as an FYI, I got deleted for
posting initials and was told we are not to do that.
Sure should be deleted!
That is a big no-no. You might even want to check out your HIIPA and confidentiality agreements again. Mine says I cannot identify any client to a third party, though I never would. What do you think everybody on this board is who does not work on that account? I hope you don't cost your company the account.
It was deleted. Please SM
We do not allow job-wanted posts. Everyone needs to do their own job research through the descriptive job ads on the Job Seekers board. They can then ask about specific companies by name on the Company board.

It will probably just get deleted.
I made this same post the day the ad came out and the post was deleted and I got an email from the mod basically saying we are not allowed to mock these companies as they don't want to scare companies from posting here.
I tried to answer you but it got deleted - sm
I would have no idea why as I didn't say anything inflammatory.  I won't be trying to help out again since things get deleted around here for no reason.
They weren't even bad. I don't know why they were deleted sm
unless the name-calling started again. That is the only reason they are deleted. I wish they would've stayed as there was a lot of information from both the company and others and none of it really ugly unless someone blew it as usual.
Now I get it - why certain posts are deleted!
They obviously still lie and convince some people otherwise about offshoring.

Thread deleted. (SM)
The thread was without any substantiation whatsoever, just 2 inflammatory remarks with no credibility and the replies were starting to get out of hand.

Information about any company can be posted here; however, it should be posted with specific information, not just general name-calling and not even specific complaints listed.

Post deleted. (SM)
Posts with names, e-mail addresses, phone numbers, or other information identifying individuals or company accounts will be removed.

Company information, such as websites, etc., can be found on the Job Seekers Board.

Do not post your management's initials or names.

Goldbird
No they are not. I was deleted and told
no initials. Sigh. Sure wish I could give them though. I do not see how initials can hurt. It is not like giving the full name (though these people deserve that)
many KS postings have been deleted due to
people supposedly working for Keystrokes who were posting...in a nut shell, the KS people were not putting themselves in a good light and the posts were pulled but you would need to ask KS about it for their version.
Why do my posts keep getting deleted?
If you are going to delete them, could you at least let me know?  I truly don't understand why you are deleting them.  I asked a simple question about what companies pay on a weekly basis.  Is there something wrong with that?  I assume thye were not moved because I can't find it anywhere and I posted it twice.  How about an explanation or something?
The posts have been deleted.

I wasn't soliciting a job!!!  I was asking what companies are the best to work for doing radiology transcription.  I've seen other people ask this same question for other specialties and not get deleted.
Wonder why my post was deleted...sm

I replied earlier to this post about my experience with Spheris and it has disappeared. 


I didn't bad-mouth Spheris, only gave my actual experience regarding their pay system and my opinion about their software.


So No, I did not like the environment at Spheris and took myself and my 20 years experience somewhere else.

Either I am blind of a post of mine was deleted from the forum.  It was in regards to psych transcription positions.  Oh where, oh where, did my post go.  I may be blind, but I honestly do not see it.
They were deleted. Sob. Gulp.

No, probably just your post will be deleted

my deleted emails....
My 2 posts, in which I defended you, were deleted, because they were too offensive. But I must say that this was done in a very polite manner.
I ended one of my post with 'Shame, shame', this was obvious a too strong language.
I will try to behave.
Why did my response to this get deleted?
I wasn't being snotty. All I said was maybe the HR person took the long holiday weekend off. How is that rude? So OP, did you hear back from them yet? Maybe follow up with a phone call. Good luck.
Why was my response to this deleted?
I was in no way snotty when I said that DSL is high speed and WiFi is considered the less secure internet connection for HIPAA regulations. Guess my Master's degree doesn't qualify me.
I deleted a SoftScript thread. sm
Daily, these threads start with the same 1-2 people posting over and over again, agreeing with themselves. Then the management accusations come out. By now, your message has gotten out and it's time to put this to bed. If you're that disgruntled, file a complaint with the proper authorities. You're not going to get anywhere here complaining day after day after day. Better yet, if they're that bad, take matters into your own hands and QUIT!
Several posts deleted on this thread. (SM)

Several posts have been deleted mainly due to the naming of individuals at companies.  DO NOT USE IDENTIFYING INFORMATION such as names or accounts. 


As well, language was the cause for a post removed.  See the posting policy at the top of the Company board.

My message was not horrible but got deleted anyway. sm
My post was about someone asking for a cushy job and I replied she needed to do the footwork and not expect the perfect job to be dumped in her lap.  Someone else replied that I must have awakened alone that morning (which I did not).  Well, I can handle the flames, don't need anyone to delete messages on my account.  IMO, these were not messages that were cause to be deleted.  Next, we will have to run messages by the moderator before we will be able to post anything. 
Reply deleted; do not name accounts, please. (NM)

Previous posts were deleted (sm)
They were NOT talking about the resumes being fake.  Some earlier posts had said they would post some names of applicants for you to ask them what the name of their company was because they weren't revealing their identity.  They did list a few names but the post containing the names was soon deleted.  So, they were weren't meaning the resumes were fake, they meant that they had listed fake names.
Posts about them usually get deleted, but I'll
post my experience.   They represented companies that already post on all the job boards.  The line rate was not any better, no better benefits, shifts, etc. going through TM than if I had applied myself.  I know this because I had already been offered a job twice by the company that they wanted me to test for.   You have to go through an interview and testing (although the test is really a joke) and then go through it again with whatever company, so I see no advantage of going through TM. 
hmmm,... how shall I say this without this post being deleted -sm
Have you noticed that Diskriter has been advertising for over a year - A YEAR - for the same accounts. The same hospital accounts over and over and over again.

I got a call for an interview for Diskriter for the Florida position, as well as the eye hospital. I said that I had noticed that these positions had been posted for over a year on at least three (3) boards and wondered why. Do you know what the interviewer said to me? Get this .... it's because the accounts for those hospital just keep getting bigger and bigger and we need more and more people for those two accounts.

Do I sound like I fell off the turnip truck? Since when do hospital accounts keep getting bigger and bigger? Especially when the whole account is outsourced. Let me guess - these hospitals just keep hiring more and more and more doctors and they just keep dictating more and more and more.
Not to worry. I am sure this thread will be deleted.
