No, I did not know many of the things you say here.  The only pharmacy techs I know are people with very little training, not like anything you mention, and that does frighten me I must admit. 

I do know that many of the newbies seem to have a poor work ethic and don't seem to have had very much training.  I see that where I work.  And I do know someone who had been in a mentoring program offered by a national and had a horrible experience and barely kept herself alive on what she made. 

I did not know the other things you mentioned.  I am glad you filled me in on these things.  I want to learn all I can about our situation.  I welcome feedback and I sure wish the things you mentioned were discussed here.  I'd be grateful if you could advise me where to turn to find out such things and keep track of what is really going on, because I apparently am not getting the whole story.  I'd also be interested in your ideas for what to do as you seem to know what you're talking about. 

I apologize if I offended you or anyone else. 

Thank you for pointing out actual fraud amount.  I stand corrected. Article states $379,968.  Kodak alleged near $500k.   It was $1.36 million and $632,277 that was ordered to be paid by Linda and husband for damages stemming from the convicted fraud. 

And again, you are correct in that it was not Execuscribe by that name in these particular convictions, but former company name of Emtex - whose assets were then acquired by Execuscribe at a deflated value, and then quickly transferred those Execuscribe stocks to her sons -- which generated a new action, and was declared null and void by the court in an an attempt to "hinger, delay or defraud" her creditors.    So, yes, Execuscribe was named in this court action.  

Maybe I'm off by a few years -- but I remember this business being Emtex, Executive Secretarial, and now Execuscribe.  That's SEVERAL names.  If I'm wrong on that - sorry.  But my point is, one GOOD name should carry you through your whole professional life, don't you think?

I was offered a position with Transtech today. The recruiter gave me a lot of info, but I completely drew a blank regarding any questions I had. I work for MQ now, and am looking to leave because I believe it is only going to get worse, and I can't take any more cuts in pay. So here goes:

1. Do they do ASR, and if so, what is their percentage of line rate (i.e., Medquist currently pays 70%).

2. Do they pay any shift differential?

3. Do they allow split shifts or 10 hour shifts for 4 days if 1 is a weekend day?

4. As far as line rate, they offered me 1.25 cents less a line than I am currently making, but their incentive program, from what I understood, seems pretty decent.

5. Are they easy to work with, QA, supervisors, etc.

Any and all information anyone can provide would be appreciated. This is a big decision I need to make by Monday, and am a little nervous, but think I would like to take the leap!
