my shoulder, it's a block(head).  The games they play, the excuses/reasons are old, worn out, and it's aggravating to sit there staring at that NJA cyclops when others are getting the work.  Dog-eat-dog is not conducive to a good work environment.  We didn't create the situation but we bear the brunt. 

I added what we were making - just from the people that i know that worked for Decatur TSI.  For this particular company it IS pretty accurate and we never received our pay.  Though I'm sure Jayne, Howard, and even Doug are paying their bills just fine.  Merry flipping xmas losers at TSI

Hey, tax day was just last week! 

If you need a manual to learn how to be ripped off and cheated, well, perhaps VR IS for you.  You are welcome to it!

Lots of career moms go to work everyday and place their children in reputable childcare.  There are also moms out there who are home all the time with their kids and they'd get better care elsewhere.  Perhaps the OP has a supportive family nearby that would be willing to help out. 

I think your comments were very judgmental and not helpful at all. 

I would never sit around and so ho-hum and it's the fault of the company.  What should I have said? 

Please.  No one needs to sit around in this industry if there are plenty of jobs posted.  One man's trash is another man's treasure.

Instead of feeling sorry for ourselves, why not find a better job?  We're not worth it? 

I'm not one to sugar coat.  We can't be lazy.  We have to look for a better job if there's no work. 

I am a Synernet employee and found the post to be harsh. I don't see an inner circle, I saw friends and co-workers who supported another in a time of need. I also do not feel like a robot and of step child. I have never been denied time off. I may have had to make up time if it was a busy time of year, but never been denied.  Instead of complaining, let's be grateful that (a) you have a job and (b) you are not the person in charge of 90+ transcriptionist, their time off schedules, the system and the one answering emails and phone calls and dealing with MTs issues and customer issues.  Discussing MT issues is one thing but attacking a person who lost a loved one is going to far.

Was hired at 16 cpl per 65 character line for a rad acct in Cali.  My check were meniscule and so I bought her line counting software and called her on my pay.  She said she was paying me 16 cents per minute of dictation which was a complete switchover.  You see these were reports with a lot of pasting and then adding different values.  The only dictated minutes were the clinical history, pre and postop diagnosis and some values in the pasted normals. 

She says the average dictated minute is transcribed in 1.5-2 minutes, HUH, where does she come from, it is more like 1 min of dictation is transcribed in 3-6 minutes, right???

The husband could be a partner.  I had my husband do my deliveries when I wasn't allowed to drive after surgery and no one questioned this as a violation.  They were glad he did it.  And my husband could care less whose names are on those papers; really in all honesty.

Furthermore, who really knows who is sending the work at any given time.  There was another poster here that said her nephew delivered tapes to a subcontractor and left in the screen door.  I mean come on?  Was that a violation?  NOT!  

saw the posts from below, not happy, but not enough for me to say hey or nay. Where I am coming from I know it can't be worse but I really want a good fit. Thanks for all who can inform me.

and I am sorry for being harsh.  I still have my opinion and will stand behind Transcend.  But my apology is to JMO.  He/she was the only civil one, debating more than fighting.  I cannot bring myself to apologize to the other attackers, however, who were just as unruly as myself while hiding their names from the public. 

I do agree with the above poster who said we should just let it go.  We all seem to feel strongly in our opinions but we've hashed it out as much as it should/could be. 

Sorry again.

scary people on this board ARE MTSOs.  I've seen more than one nutjob running around screaming and ranting to people.  "Well, I'd never hire you to work for me!"  GOOD!!  I don't want to work for some psycho chick with a bad attitude anyways!!!  The real shrews expect endentured servitude, don't pay squat, and have poor business management skills.  If you're an MTSO and you're taking this post personally, well, I'm probably referring to YOU.
