Most are a lot more interesting than your usual hospital reports. I found there were a smaller group of docs to deal with and can get really familiar with them and not searching to find doc names , new drugs and facilities as much. They do usually talk fast but that is what my slower control is for;-)

love 'em
Love 'em! They're my MT home (sm)
for the rest of my career I hope. I've been there 2 years and I cannot say enough good about the owners and the way they run the company. Plenty of work, pay never late, and I have never felt like an anonymous number on an employee roster there. If you have any specific questions, please feel free to e me @ ustshelby@hotmail.com and I'll try to help.
Some love 'em, some don't. DQS software drove me away about 3 mos. ago...nm

it's called razzle/dazzle, confuse 'em, make 'em doubt themselves nm
 The real number rounds down to how much you averaged/ made an hour.
No matter how you figure, by the line, character, gross line, by the page, by the dictation minute or whatever, it is what you can average out in a day of work.
You work 10, 12, 14, 16 hours and make $XXXX you divide your hours worked into what you ended up with
Kick 'em 2 the curb - U are 2 good 4 'em! nm
Love, love, love TransTech! Not overhiring, just growing like crazy!

had 'em all going!
rofl
not if you don't tell 'em about it! lol
just keep quiet about it
You tell 'em FastRad!! sm
$78,000 last year. Want to see my 1099's?
You tell 'em sister....
Cuz I'm just a grinch and have poverty of the soul because I didn't provide comfort and joy as what some perceive to be what the OP wanted. Pity party is what she wanted and yes at this point I'm beating a dead horse, which is maybe what I'll call myself now.
As for the OP, I guess he got off her a$$ and finally made that call since according to all of the posters that supposedly support her claim she worked 24 hours in one day to get her lines in. Now that deserves pity!
I stand by what I say, and I mean what I say. If the OP wanted pats on the back and awwww so sorry, then so be it. What I said is true when there's no work I don't sit on my a$$ and wait at all hours of the night and day, I look for another job. Fortunately, I haven't had to do that.
And yes, NY MT is correct in that everyone wants their cake and eat it too. What took the OP so long to make that call and get those back up accounts? It took for me to shake her up! But you all got her back now, so she'll be just fine!
Tell 'em sister...
if the money in the paycheck is green, it will spend.
Furthermore, no one knows who off shores or not. There could be companies that say they do not off shore, but they do. How would we know? I say if the pants fit right, keep them on and walk around like you own the place instead of worrying about something that is not in our control.
Furthermore, just because a company advertises no off shore applicants does not necessarily mean they do not off shore. It just means they also hire US MTs.
Umm... duhh! Of course I have - I'm one of 'em.
What I was taking about is that companies use that as an EXCUSE when they're trying to make their case about offshoring. They claim that all their US MT's are going to up and retire en masse someday, and they'll need to send more and more work offshore.
Just one more strand in their big web of lies.
High five! You tell 'em!
That's just what I was thinking.
Call 'em!
Never say never. Give the recruiter and a call and follow-up on it. Sounds like you're almost in the door, so don't throw in the towel yet.
Go get 'em, girl!!!
You tell 'em sista...
People want feedback.... Here's your feedback and I heard the same thing as you! Not worth it!
Go ahead and warn 'em
but all too many people get carried away and make up all kinds of nonsense. I have worked for a few companies and do know what is out there. I have others to compare this company to. So, that sure isn't the case. Anyway, its a free board, post away...just warning others to watch out and to form their own opinions.
That's what I did...left 'em off my resume. GL to you.

I'm glad I turned 'em down...
I'm sorry to hear that...last summer, I was in contact with them, they offered me a job and I purchased a pedal from them...something about them just struck me as oogy, though, and I ended up changing my mind and turning them down. So, whew, guess I dodged a bullet.
Never heard of 'em - and I live in SC!
Do they have a website?
Oh, egads, that was stingy of 'em!
That's penny-ante wages!
You should call KS and tell 'em the situation (sm)
Ask to speak to the Director of Ops, KB.
Hang in there! To leave no work and come to no work is not good. Unfortunately, the hospitals and other clients take forever to assign IDs to KS MTs.
Yikes - with the pay cuts and all? You can have 'em.

try archives, never heard of 'em. nm

Most of 'em won't tell you diddly until you've
up to & including your SS#, which I won't give 'til I've tested & gotten an acceptable offer.
Hahaha! That's too funny! You tell 'em! nm
Go get 'em. I will be rooting for you in absentia. nm

Several posts in the last month or so if you do a search. Some like 'em, some don't. nm

Thank you kindly - I'll check 'em out!
:)
I work there and am very happy. Give 'em a try!
Very professional, accommodating, and fair.
did that many many times...still calling, can't stop 'em
no call list is a crock. I have been on it since it was first implemented and as far as I can tell, it has never stopped any body from calling, particularly the automated phone calls.
I have a friend who works for them and she loves 'em. don't know about pay
nm
Doesn't cost anything to report 'em to
I'd tell 'em, 'From now on, send me ONE email/day -
And I'd turn off the IM if they abused it like that.
It's starting to feel like MQ there. Can't trust 'em....sm
Although I know people will jump to correct me, many of us have a very hard time getting our hours in. Line counts are down. I worked over 39 hours and 20 minutes last week--all I could scrape together--then got an E-mail from my STM telling me to put in for an hour of PTO since I did not have 40 hrs last week. What vacation you do accrue often goes for making up the hours you can't work because of the lack of work available. They spout off about excellence, commitment, blah, blah, blah, but they are not committed to their employees and outsource work as the not looking good poster said. Unless they are hiring for unusual shifts, I wonder why they are hiring at all. You can easily have 5 accounts and no work. Who knows what they will do next? Pay cuts? That's my bet. They can give us the tough economy talk again to justify it.
I'd tell 'em they could have their foot pedal back
Don't forget, if they can take legal action for return of a little used foot pedal, you most CERTAINLY can take legal action over nonpayment for the lines they gypped you out of.
It is First Choice Medical and they are a great company. Nothing bad to say. Try'em. nm

Great place to work - give 'em a try!
:)
The last 3 I applied for called ALL of mine! I did give 'em a head's up, tho'. :) nm

Did find a Wright Watson Sten-Tel in Austin if their site isn't old. Find 'em with Google. nm

Does anyone think 41 is too old to go to nursing school. I love MT but I just would love to be a
nurse. I have such a interist in helping others and the medical world.
Love, love, love DeVenture
Super nice, flexible and just all around nice to work for.
Love, love, love Axolotl
I totally love Axolotl. Just as A-team said, fantastic benefits. Yes, strict schedule, but never ever had a problem getting off when I needed to. I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else.
It's Monday. Everyone plays catch up on Monday. Give 'em

I would love to know too, I love EXText

Love Bayscribe and love the pay
At 11 cpl I love working for MDI Maryland. Bayscribe is a breeze. The lines build up so quickly. Everything is right there on the page. Sometimes, you have to fill in patient data, but who cares.... you do get paid for it. No holiday or vacation pay as it is an IC position. It beats 8 and 9 cpl any day. IMO
Love, love Archivus
Mind my asking what your line rate is? Do you have to work a schedule? Is their platform good? Anything else?
love/hate MT, mostly love it :)
i've long been dismayed with the direction in which this profession has gone, and i agree with the person who posted that women have accepted substandard wages and/or unfair IC or employment situations. It's very sad to see how, when outsourcing became the norm, women did not adequately negotiate to, you know, pay their bills!!! It seems this has resulted in lots of undercutting and lower line rates for everyone. I see some companies slowly improving and not requiring crazy line counts and hours in exchange for paying into health insurance. i entered this profession as a single female. i married an engineer and was living mighty comfy and cushy and happily doing 4 hours at 11 cpl in the late 90s. didn't have to worry about not having bennies at all. now as a single mom with a young child, i truly struggle. but i do love my work and hold out for my specialty to keep the line count up. still, i see the glaring problems and it's just a shame. if there were an MT union, i'd join in a heartbeat. no time/energy to start one and be some kind of norma rae, though!
Ah, yes, a love/hate thing indeed!
Best to all of you wonderful mts, male and female :)
Love it there
Okay, I have read all the posts and have been keeping up with all of this. I wasn't going to say anything, but some of the naysayers are getting a little nasty. I think that Transcend is a very good company. All of their pay rates and incentives, bonuses and benefits are public knowledge on the forum. It would make it very hard for preferrential treatment to go. However, I suppose it could happen. What I don't get is if it is happening to someone, why wouldn't they do something about it instead of putting up with it and complaining to the world about it while they do it?
Also, there are a ton of posts on here about Transcend from this thread that are not nice about the company and I haven't seen MT Stars pull one single post. I guess they aren't as biased as some would claim!
LOVE THEM!
I've been with them for almost 6 months, and they are the best! They truly treat their MTs with respect. I would highly recommend them!
