No nasty replies here, I think you have
that nasty
over the weekend.
not nasty
pointing out the contradictatory assumptions --first, the original poster was wrong, the company is wonderful and has great communication and never deceives (or leaves out vital information regarding an account). Then turns around and says communication must not be good, mgt doesn't know this is happening, who not go over your lead's head. There is either great communication or there is not great communication. The mgt should be dealing with these issues with honesty and not leaving it to MTs at home trying to help and getting all tangled up in contraindications.
.Why would a skilled MT give a company a second chance when the company obviously knew about the turmoil over the situation in the first place, and played dumb when confronted with this issue.
maybe she is - what a nasty

What was nasty that I said?
There are millions of people looking for jobs right now, not just MTs. It is almost impossible to find anything at all, let alone something that will let you settle in and feel secure. I would not quit any job (even a sucky one) before I found something else.
There was absolutely nothing nasty about what I said. I do wish OP luck and anybody else who is looking.
Chill out for crying out loud.
if this is the same CC below...you are just nasty...go away! nm

Wow how nasty! sm
I believe it was someone who realizes what this so called career has turned into. It is sad and I feel the same way. We are not appreciated. Worked out in the real world yes, prefer home. I feel after 14 years I am a professional, and used to make much, much more 5 years ago than today. Sound like a bunch of old housewives who feel important because we TYPE for a living. Obviously you are not in this profession or what used to be a profession. Yes, I have many talents and many hobbies and can do so many things it would make your big head spin right off your little neck. Oh I might pee myself to talk to the owner of the company yea, well I doubt it, I like ME, and my touch with greatness was meeting, greeting and talking with George Bush Sr., never once thought about peeing myself, sang with Jerry Jeff Walker on stage, never peed either.
UIMO that was the most creative post explaining the situation now that I have seen in a long time. Thanks for being a team player, NOT YOU (had to say it)!
Good I can go to bed now I have done my anon post on the board and I feel big and important. NIghty night, pleae let the bed bugs bite.
lets not get nasty.......
1. I am not management.
2. I have been on DocQScribe for about a year and a half.
3. I do not count the headers and footers since obviously they would not copy and paste into the Word Document. Since we don't get paid for them, why would I count them?
4. Not getting paid for headers and footers is wrong - but we are caught in this predicament - the only way to force the issue is to stop filling in the headers and footers and since I am not management and not even remotely interested in leading a revolt, I will not be the one to start this whole issue.
Sorry. I better get back to work. This board is one of the many reasons I don't meet my line count - too much internet surfing when I should be working.
Rather nasty tone -- that's what they get (sm)
I've been in admin before. If you are a good enough MT, a good company would save your resume for the future, possibly contact you and let you know there is nothing presently open, or even contact you for testing. Smart recruiters don't just put valuable people on junk lists (valuable being key--I would put the Dear Sir kind of countless offshore applicants in Junk Mail in a heartbeat). That sounds more like someone with a little Napoleon complex than anything.
mean and nasty is not cool..

SINCE EVERYONE IS SOOO NASTY
About typos, doesn't anyone know the difference between the usage of NO AND KNOW?
Sounds NASTY to me! ;D
.
That recruiter is still nasty!!! wow...sm
Dealt with her years ago when I was thinking about working for them, but when I found out i had to go to NJ, I declined....I hate flying, will not fly ever...last time I had to fly, I had to be given very strong meds to tolerate it as I slept thru most of it!!! But that recruiter was just plain RUDE!!!!!!
Nasty vs Touchy
The person YOU ATTACKED made 1 statement of fact. Now if YOU read it as nasty, isn't that YOUR issue? For goodness sake, it's not nasty to share a different opinion (stated with a simple statement as she did) especially when the opinion is truthful.
It's not nasty to disagree, it's healthy.
IMO, worse than attacks are those who constantly whine about BEING attacked when it simply didn't occur.
Why, why nasty response?
The OP was asking about the rates paid and I answered. VR can be productive. Sorry you seem to be having a bad day.
Wow, what a nasty and miserable POS
you are. Sheesh!!!
Nice not Nasty
I agree with you. People should be nice, not nasty. There is, of course, a difference between being bluntly honest without being nasty. I quit a company and was bluntly honest with what I thought of them and how they might improve by treating MTs as people instead of disposable commodities. So since I told them exactly what I thought of them, I don't mind telling anybody else. Simply stating a fact.
I'm not being nasty. Don't know why people
don't check the archives or even attempt to read posts on the same page and continue to ask the same questions over and over.
OMG, this is really a nasty comment....
I, too, paid for rent and food when I lived at home, after I graduated from highschool. But my mother was already then a widow, so understandable and justified.
Just a question - not nasty . . .
When someone posts about hating their company, isn't it logical to say which company? Geesh. My attitude is fine. I'm just wondering about the company.
Take a look in the mirror. Why would you repsond to my post with such hostility? Wow.
Thanks both of you for your replies!
Thanks for your replies....
Thanks guys, I've always kept at it and then kept at it some more. I maintain my 98% to 100% accuracy, and I do increase my line count weekly, its only by a 100 to 200 lines a week tho and still not doing the line count they want. But, I'll keep at it some more and take your suggestions to heart. I do love being an MT, I don't care what anyone says. When you live in a small town and have to drive an hour to get decent pay, until you subtract gas, clothing and lunches, I'd much rather be here in my office, working at it on a day to day basis and not have to deal with office politics. I'll figure it out somehow.
Thanks for your replies. nm

Thanks for your replies -
I am leaning toward Webmedx. They offer fantastic benefits. It's true, the starting pay for ERs is not great, but with the incentive plan and evening/weekend differential - yeah, not bad. They offer a 12-hour window for getting work done (on some accounts).
Now, the question is, are the ESLs okay, bad, simply terrible, or just flat out unbelievable?!!!! 
Thanks for the replies! nm

Thank you for your replies.
I am going to have a phone interview later today with the recruiter, so I'll see what she has to say.
If I decide to go with Spheris, I am probably going to stay on at my current company at least for a little while to make sure Spheris is a good fit. At least that way, I'm not out of luck if it doesn't work out.
Thank you again. You have given me a lot to think about.
Thanks for the replies
I had already heard some good things but just wanted to check out some other sources as well. Thanks again!
Thank you for your replies everyone.
I'm trying not to beat myself up too much about the test/score. I guess what they meant by timed test is that you have 24 hours to reply to the email and/or take the test and send it back to the company. But even still, I took as much time as I needed and used all of my reference materials to make double sure my answers were right. There was only one question that I could not find an answer to and therefore I guessed at the answer but even still that shouldn't have given me the score of 88. But, needless to say, that is water under the bridge and I'm moving down the river to stop at the next sand bar.
As a matter of fact I have another email in my box from another company wanting to talk to me but need to do a little research on them first. Zylomed - any info?
I try not to rely solely on Radiology, however, it is my absolute favorite. I absolutely, postively cannot stand to do OP notes so I try to stay away from hospital accounts.
Again thank you all for your replies and support, it really helps when you are beating yourself up to have someone else to try to pat you on the back and give a boost of self esteem.
I'd look at it this way, if there are not a lot of replies
have changed their name, or no one really has anything bad to say. Why try to pick someone's brain who just posts a one-liner. Maybe the poster does not want to go into it on this board and write a book.
Thanks for all your replies.I appreciate it. (sm)
I'm not only new to TT, I'm new to working for a national. Don't know all the ins and outs of the system procedures, etc. I was an IC for longer than I care to comment on, and my eyes seem to give out (watering, itching, burning) after a certain amount of hours on the PC.
thanks for replies, but.....sm
I guess the key word here is training. They all want experienced eScription editors and I have never had the opportunity to learn it. Do you know if these companies specifically train on eScription? TIA
Thanks so much, everyone, for your replies ... n/m

Thanks for replies......
So stressed out over it. Hopefully it will pick up. I really wonder what's happening here.
Thanks Everyone for Your Replies
Thanks MslaMT and others who replied about the line count difference. I surely appreciate the feedback, and am glad to have this little eScription community on this board to have discussions with. Happy Holidays to all-!!
Thanks for your replies.
I had seen those in the archives. I decided to keep looking and not apply.
Thank you, everyone, for your replies.
Every time I get excited about maybe finding a good job, I come on here and see how terrible the company is. Thank goodness for this board to find those things out, but I'm really starting to get frustrated - are there no more good and honest places to work for any more?
Thanks for the replies (sm)
I do have insurance coverage now, but there are several issues at my employer and I am desperate to go somewhere else. My husband is currently laid off, so I cannot afford to pay COBRA for 3 months while I am waiting for benefits to kick in at another employer. My son has a chronic medical condition, so private insurance is not an option (automatically declined everywhere we've tried). I'm praying that an opportunity will open up that will allow me to switch employers and get good insurance coverage. I hate being trapped where I am because of the insurance issue.
Thanks so much for the replies! sm
To those of you kind enough to take time out to respond, I want to thank you for alleviating some of the anxiety I had. I've been in this field over 15 years, but change can be scary, even if it is for the better.
Thanks again. You all are awesome!
Thanks for the replies
I have heard this is not a great platform. I am used to working in ChartScript. I go in on a VPN and citrix to the hospital server. I type in my own word and cut and paste. Can you do that with Meditech? Thanks again for replying.
Thank you both for your replies! (nm)
Thanks for the replies
I too really like my Vista and I do hope they upgrade to Vista. I am just about to learn ExText so I don't know much about it. I have been working in ChartScript and love it. I am hoping this platform is as easy. I use my laptop to work when I am away from home and it is frustrating when these companies don't take the time to update platforms to Vista. You have to special order computers with XP on them now. Thanks again.
Thank you for the replies
I'm full time so I have enough hours to qualify and from all the documentation I have I thought I was right but HR still won't budge. Now I have to decide if it's worth jeopardizing my job to fight for this or just leave it be.
Wow. Thanks for the replies! (sm)
Actually, I hadn't even noticed there was a Medquist board until you told me, and after reading the replies here and at the MQ board, I have decided to stay away from MQ. Thanks to all who replied, and I do take anything said on the board with a grain of salt, but you only need so many grains to know it's just not worth the hassle. I already run out of work a lot where I am now, but at least I have complete flexibility, there's not much VR (yet), and the people are really nice. Thanks for the input!
Love those nasty emails
In fact, I save them for my own personal amusement. I swear I have never seen such unprofessionalism in all my years. I am so tempted to respond to some of those nutty, nasty, threatening emails but I still need to keep the job for a little bit longer.
Not trying to be nasty to my fellow QT people, but maybe we should THINK that they just need us
to work hard and go above and beyond the call of duty just because it's the right thing to do in this case to get things back in order. That was an honest, heartfelt this morning....why don't we forget about what used to be for right now and just help out. I thnk we'll all be glad in the long run if we do.
Nasty, rude MT. Really unnecessary. nm
.
I was not nasty. KS wants all their business posted and it was
not necessary. There is a professional way to do it without posting their stats. That's all. I was not being nasty at all and did not mean anything nasty by it
I thought we were all here to help each other with information? That is just NASTY.
