LMAO!!!!

TransCRAPtionist - ROFL!!!  That is PERFECT!  This may be the only laugh I get all day - THANK YOU!!!  :)  And, of course, on those days when I feel like a total zombie, lifeless, trapped in a never-ending twilight transcription zone, I can always call myself a TransCRYPTionist.  Uh oh....you've got me thinking now - lol!  Have a great day (if you can) everyone!


same here: LMAO !.......nm

what gives LMAO
Honestly, what is your problem? Why so hateful? What, you have millions in the bank.. Then why blog here? Compassion is a lovely trait.. you should try it once.
RE: LMAO
Um, not so overdramatic. It's happening to a lot of MTs. Not all of us have a hubby with a decent paying job and bennies to rely on. And getting on food stamps? Honey, they aren't handing them out like candy. Around here you have to jump through hoops to get them and even then I'm considered to make too much to receive them. And yes, I have eaten crackers and peanut butter etc just to make sure my kids ate. This is why I'm going to go back to school. Something that actually pays a living wage. Because sitting for an 8 hour shift and getting maybe 8 jobs isn't feeding my kids.
LMAO! All that and you have so much time
You bbetter come up with a better scam or stop posting here so much because it's very obvious that you're management and getting paid a salary with no need to worry about making any lines. If you needed to worry about lines you'd have about 5 minutes left of your work day today since you've been here constantly. What a liar.
LMAO. Soon they'll have........sm
    QA to QA the QA-ers !!  
best of lucks to you too, LMAO
Their management can't even spell!
This is true...LMAO!!! nm

LOL HAHA LMAO, etc.
Funny how all the people who claim to think VR is the greatest, simplest thing since the microwave also come back later to state that they have alternate sources of income. Based on their postings, I suspect some of their other income comes from writing fiction.
way, way too funny, LMAO thanks ;-)

LMAO. The hospital locally PROMISED
when the time came, they did not follow through with their promise. Alot of MT's walked and now work for nationals and are much more happy and make a whole lot more money, including myself.

Your situation is good for you, but may not be so good for the next person.
PROBABLY IN THE HEAD/MAIN OFFICE (LMAO)....NM

FUNNIEST THING..they all think you're making all this big money (LMAO) -nm

OMG! LMAO! So worked up over 1 word? Better quit posting, her head's gonna explode!...nm
x
u made 300 a week? That's more than I made there.
But no work, no pay. Nice ppl, they really are, some of the nicest in the business. Just can't communicate to save their lives and the recruiters are lying dogs.

I'd say if you're looking for part-time work, as in less than 20 hrs a week's worth of work, then this place is for you. Use them as ur backup. Because guaranteed that's all they're using you for.


lmao!! yeah maybe I'm the recruiter...suggesting that my co-worker is the problem. yeah that make
x
They have definitely made some changes for the better - sm
There are a few people that are no longer there, that made working there very very very horrible, and they have a new insurance plan, and everything is going real smooth now!!
You made my day also! nm
.
I have seen that ad and it made me
sick to my stomach. That is why whenever someone finds out what I do for a living, I am extremely quick to point out the fact that you cannot make near that much. Well, I guess if you had your own accounts and lived in a very busy area, but not where I live.
I made 38+, some are up to 50K. BUT...you need to know...
You need to consider that recruiters work *for the company*, and they don't call the shots on what they sell. I eventually left the biz because I wasn't comfortable with what I was told to say to prospective MTs, knowing it wasn't reality. When you get in the door and things are different, remember also that the supervisor is probably not be in the know about what is sold on the front end, and the recruiter isn't to blame, either. It's senior management that should have their feet held to the fire.

So, don't shoot the messenger, please, because they aren't always in control of the script they're given. I speak from experience.
More $$ can be made as an RN BUT
the work is incredibly physically demanding, shift work is the norm, and holidays have to be covered.   If you love nursing, become a nurse - but don't go into it for the $$.  
I made nearly $60,000 ...
…in the 80s, when I worked for a hospital. Now that I work for a national company. my salary is $24,000 a year.
Don't know, but it made me...
think of on-point.  Stay away, very far away....
Made in USA

It's pretty hard to find anything made in this country anymore.  I just recently heard that Walmart imports their produce from Mexico and China!!!  Wouldn't eat anything from that place.  I don't need my veggies fertilized with people poop thank you very much. 


I just took my Gateway laptop back to Best Buy for the 2nd time since I bought it 3 months ago.  Hard drive went out within the first month.  Now it won't even turn on.  The guy who took it for service said it was the cheap made in China  parts.  Cheap isn't the issue with me, quality is.  But I don't particularly consider that $1200+ laptop CHEAP.


And that is so bad??!! I have never made
such easy $$ as here at KS on Meditech.  It rocks!!! 
I made a little more than that....sm
at my previous employer, but not much more, probably about $2200 a month. I am not sure what I will be making where I am now because of all the variables....efficiency of platform, difficulty level of docs, etc. However, I do live simply. I do not currently have dish tv (cannot get cable where I live). I mostly eat at home and eating out is rare. I shop the specials at the grocery store and only buy meat on sale and then I don't buy things like shrimp, salmon fillets, etc. I don't spend a lot on clothes. I drive an older model (2001) car when I drive which is not all that often. I don't take vacations anywhere but rather spend the time here at home catching up on things that have been neglected the other 50 weeks out of the year. I also have a very close relationship with my Lord and Savior and feel that helps me cope with life in general and living on a small salary in particular. I'm not saying that everything is roses or that there is nothing that I lack or want for, but because I live simply, I find that I can live better on less. I realize also that I live in an area of the country where the cost of living is relatively low by national standards and I feel very blessed in that respect. My heart does go out to those who are trapped in areas where living is more expensive. Not being able to buy a box of mac and cheese to feed your kids (as another MT mentioned on here) must be an awful feeling.
omg u made my day!
For Real ! thanks for that :)

It sounds like the downsides are nothing to be worried about, I can deal with that.

Thanks again!
They made it up!
I believe the person that posted the message about the earthquake in Oregon was just trying to show that you can make up and post anything; it does not necessarily mean it's true.

We could save a ton of money by coming together, keeping a low overhead, incorporating, organizing state offices, could keep the rate low by not having to compensate CEOs. It would have to start out slow and grow by word of mouth.

I made a BIG mistake. SM

I was working for this great company who only required 2000 lines a day and had a very flexible schedule.  I couldnt handle the 2000 lines a day in addition to my other position and had to quit.  Then a little later, asked if I could have another chance.  She gave me this chance and then, again, it was too hard for me to keep up with all the work.


Now I am on a different schedule with school starting again as well as other circumstances and this would just be the perfect scenerio for me.  The 2000 lines a week.


I have been searching for other companies that might have this type of position available and have failed to locate one.  Do you think it would be completely wrong of me to ask, yet again, for another chance?  Or would I be coming off too nutty. :-)


Just asking for opinions.  Go ahead and tell the truth.  If you think I am a nutcase, go ahead and let me know.  LOL.  Just want pure honesty here. 


Also if anyone else has ever been in the same position as I, I'd love to hear about it.  At least I would know I am not the only one.


yes, I did. raises have never made me
unhappy!
They just made me an IC. They are liars also. nm

You just made my day!! Thanks, I needed that!
nm
Thank you. I think those are just made up words.
unfortunately
They are made up of a web of lies....
They lie to get you to work for them, and then they consistently lie to you about raises, incentives, etc.  If I were you, I would keep looking elsewhere.....there are many companies that are hiring.......If you go with OSI, you won't stay long. 
I made over 40K as an MT with 100% QA scores. SM
It is possible - but RARELY as a new MT. The money starts increasing when your fund of knowledge increases and/or you're using your Expander effectively.

For what it's worth - I also read very quickly, so I proofread as I transcribed without slowing down.
