Did you ask her for how long it would remain the same?
See, there are lies, and then there are lies by omission.
Of course, your pay has not changed YET. Therefore, she technically did not lie.
Now had you asked her for how long your pay would remain the same, I'll be you would have had an entirely different answer...If an answer at all.
I really don't mean to be snarky, but were a lot of people really so naive as to buy into this merger from the get-go? Maybe I've just been through so many of them that I'm jaded and know what's going to happen a few steps before it's actually announced.
Omission?
I think that in school the dear nuns would call it lying by omission .. just not saying yes or no .. they have a company available should they need to use it and that they probably do use them on occasion. Whether they feel everyone in the world needs to know that is the big question, but it looks like the mystery is solved! Personally, I don't find as much fault with companies who offshore and admit to it as I do with those who do and won't admit to it. My opinion and it cost me nothing. There is a lot of escription work out there and the amount probably outweighs the number of qualified people to do it.
Ya, but it's not a spelling error, it's a grammar error!
Get it?
Not over 50. I'll be 60, live in Fl and only found insurance for $800.

It stops at the end of the month you quit. Shop around though, I found insurance
for $193 a month for me and the kids. Limit is 2 doctor visits each for a year, but since it is only temporary that is fine, lots cheaper than Cobra which was doing to cost me over $800
New insurance, huh? How long have they
been dangling the new insurance carrot for? Two or three years now? 
Long ago, an employer said we'd get insurance (sm)
and I started paying into it. But I never got any info, & was too young & dumb to follow up on it. About 7 or 8 months later I asked about it, and employer told me you have no insurance. When I said then I wanted the money back I'd been paying into it every month, she threatened to fire me over it. All I wanted was what was rightfully mine - either the money or the insurance. I later quit, but filed a claim with the state's LABOR BOARD, and not only won the suit & got my money back, but put her out of business as well.
How long does it take for Diskriter insurance to take
I'm talking about health insurance for Diskriter employees, not their hospital accounts.
As long as you don't need health insurance through them
The insurance is quite pricey.
Can you tell me how long you have to wait before you qualify for insurance?
Thanks, and can I ask how many lines you do weekly (average) on their accounts? I noticed it has varied for me among diffent companies.
Thanks..do you know what the deductibles are and how long before your eligible for insurance? Thanks
Transtech....how long of a wait for insurance?
Transcend...how long of a wait for insurance?
Does anyone know how long it takes before you qualify for insurance at Keystrokes? nm

Ha! There was a spoof on SNL a long time ago, something like Dave's insurance. sm
I've been burned by insurance companies before, so I understand. 
"ICs remain so"
Okay, now I am getting confused. Who are you quoting? Also, I thought we were all statutory, as we do have OASDI and Medicare taken out of our paychecks. Indepent contractor means you have absolutely no taxes taken from your gross pay, you received the whole amount and then have to pay your own taxes, all of them.
I assumed they would remain the same until 1/1/10
And then who knows whether those who chose to stick it out will have a pay cut...or if they'll even have a job at all.
Not sure legally because we're under contract until 01/01/2010 if they can tamper with or wages until then. You can bet once that magical day approaches, IMO, the cuts will occur. DEEP cuts.
Where did you go and remain at that rate?
I am only at 10 cpl and cannot find anywhere that pays close to that.
Which three offices will remain open?
Do you know?
they will remain 2 separate entities
cbay and MQ. As far as buying them out, Cbay has bought 70% shares from Phillips Electronics who originally had the interest of stocks. Cbay was only able to do this through 2 huge financial corporations one located in UK and the other in the US. we will remain under the financial guidance of cbay holdings who is currently going through changes in management.
I have steady work and see my primary work steadily throughout the day with 2 other accounts. The pay could be better since they reduced the rate when doing ASR work but it is still higher than other companies pay for ASR. You have to speak up for yourself when you feel you deserve a raise. They won't come to you so make sure you go to them when you feel its time. I try to stay positive and throughout the major changes which started about 2 years ago I have remained here when I thought I would not last and there were always people doubting they would not last. I even went to work for another company and decided to go back to MQ. Maybe it was not the right fit but it takes time finding the right one and I still might explore other opportunities but I have gained so much experience here as far as medical transcription is concerned.
Hope this helps a lot. good luck to you.
I agree 100%. People should know better, but those of us are who loyal will remain so.

Furthermore, I would like to know how the Indians remain HIPAA compliant when there are 27 of them
I'm not ready to leave yet, so will remain anon sm
but I did want to just say that not any one company is all that for everyone. I personally know at least three people who have not had a good experience with this company, one of which is me. I choose to remain anonymous because I am still working there for personal reasons but will be making a change here in a couple of months. I thought they were wonderful at the beginning too but things have soured for many different reasons. I don't say this to argue with anyone but just to say that this company is not for everyone and not everyone who works for this company is the greatest.
ERROR....
I posted the above asking for information about Transform, Inc. and said they were located in Wisconsin. I made a mistake they are located in Missouri. Thanks.
error sm
supposed to be hire not high resistance....darn expander!
Not a lot of room for error
If you know the BOS 2. Then apply. If you don't. Do not apply. A very strict MTSO to work for.
Then what you said in your first post was in error. sm
You specifically said, and I quote *The American Medical Association allows foreign nationals who practice in this country to join their association and nobody thinks a thing of it.* That was an error then, right? Because they are certifying and allow members from other countries, who have driven the working wage down and taken our jobs. That is the reality. Did you see where union workers are very angry about the illegal aliens. Why do you think that is? Do you know that it is projected if the illegal aliens continue to flood this country, the minimum wage will never be raised. Illegal aliens and offshoring benefit the greedy employer and the rest of the work force are punished for it. I'm so happy you can be so magnanimous about it. If you are certifying members in INDIA, PAKISTAN and TIMBUKTU, you should take the name AMERICAN out of the name of the association. Period. Full stop. End.
you DO get an error message BUT
you can just bypass it. it says that you are not connected so it cannot get rid of your job but just click cancel and when you connect it will get rid of the jobs. it is the voice files it is trying to dispense.
Good luck with your Grandma!!
Have you figured your error out yet?
nm
Now here's a spelling error!
foreing?
Your post has an error....
If you do not proof your email when I applying for a job, how do we know you will be more careful when transcribing?
Does that include the recruiter proofreading a post on this board? I see an error. What gives? I know you are not an MT, but can you find your own error?
I would have to assume that works both ways. Have a great day!
That's not the only problem they have. I get more error
messages and downtime from that crappy program than I spend working. Nothing is user friendly and its always one excuse after another why it can't be fixed.
that would be **** chained*** error n/m

My math error, sorry. sm
But it is not for me, I don't want to do 2000 lines a day, 250 lines an hour, for 7.5/lines for $150. bucks. Burn out. Nobody should have to work like that to make a living not with the junk dictation.
but ya all go ahead..
If the error changes meaning of the report
Because that's dangerous. It should be something that almost never happens though.
Sorry, error made here and I meant to say
it was NOT as much as I first thought. Sorry :)
QA error values survey...
I am just curious and trying to get a randomized answer regarding error values when an editor/QA/QC audits reports. For example: Major medical error has what point value, minor English error has what point value, etc. Also, if you don't mind stating what company this is or was for? If you would rather email me, you are more than welcome.
Subtle way of correcting her error. I like that.

The e-mail I got didn't say anything about an error. If
there was an error why not just say so and tell us what it is and put our mind at ease. The email Thursday assuring us the money would be in our accounts by the end of the day or checks overnighted to us shouldn't have been sent when they know it wasn't going to happen. Not e-mailing us first thing Friday to tell us what was going on didn't help things. I'm fairly new so I'm not in panic mode yet, but then my bills are paid and my cabinets are stocked. I do think the situation has been handled poorly and for top management not to address the situation is irresponsible.
Mine didn't say error either
This is the part that is so unsettling for me too. And the fact that the human resource/payroll person doesn't even know what is going on and the fact they will not let her know what is going on is what is unsettling for me. If they would just come right out and let us know what the heck is going on, then I would be a little more at ease. But, no one is saying ANYTHING. However, supposedly the money is there.......
I guess it depends on what your error was.
x
Yes, they do. So sorry to have made an error and forced you to have (sm)
to take your time to correct those of us who are not perfect.
If one dares to point out an error a QA
made, one might just quit because she will make your life really nasty, especially when she's the supervisor's friend.
And this does not only apply to Axolotl. It happens everywhere.
This was in ERROR-was referring to Trans Tech!
This post below was in error. I thought you were referring to Transtech - all of the same applies, however, great company (Trans Tech) pay on time, etc etc:)
She didn't make 1 spelling error that I can see.
nm
Not the Op, but do you not see a simple grammatical error in your post? nm
.
It all depends on the percentage of the error assessed.
I have worked for a couple of companies who charge an extremely high amount of points for punctuation errors. If this is the case, one can definitely dip into the 80s with punctuation errors.
That is heard, not heart. Must be a subliminal error!
nm
YES it requires more, well-know 50% med. error rate in hospitals nm,
. We have much more to know and keeping educating across the board than most medical people as we cross across ALLL medical/surgical specialities and related disorders/meds/products etc that go with them
I once saw an Indian error where he/she changed the name of a famous street
which was mentioned in a report, just because he/she didn't realize it was a street name. The Indian MT changed it to say something real romantic and inaccurate, like The patient was on the street where the lovely sun sets. It took me just a moment to realize from the context that the dictator just mentioned the street name, Sunset Blvd. No way an American would change that!
Must have typed too much, lots of spaces taken out. I'm not error-ridden, what's up w/that? nm
