Foreclosure
This can happen to anyone and in fact the statistics prove that right now you are not alone! Keep in mind that the bank does not want your house back. They would rather work something out with you.
Maybe the only reason you got turned down was because the new company didn't think they could match your current line rate, or perhaps they were afraid they wouldn't be #1 on your priority list since you are working 2 other jobs.
Hang in there. I am and old girl too. We have to stick together.
Foreclosure doesnt pop up suddenly overnight.Why

No news is good news for me. I check my audited reports all the time
If I need to talk with one of them, I call or IM them. But, no, I have learned that if I am doing a good job, they leave you alone to do your work. They are not in any way a company that micromanages as long as you do what you are supposed to. If you give them a reason to think you are not doing what you are supposed to be doing, they will keep an eye out on your work, etc.
I thought no news is good news, too. Then got email about

I guess no news is good news! :-)
Thanks anyway!
If no news is good news why is a person

I agree - no news is good news - sm
They are busy making sure you have work and want you to stay productive and busy. What is there to talk about? I personally like being left alone to do my work. As long as you get a check and the work keeps flowing, just do your thing! 
Is this news should have been labeled NEWS ALERT ...
This is breathtaking information and everyone who works at TT or is considering has the right to know. It will be buried with a title like is this news? It seems as if you are responding to the first poster's complaint of no work.
In the early days, MedQuist said working at home was a benefit, therefore at-home sm
employees did not receive as many benefits as those working in-house. As I believe, it was something like at-home employees got 3 days off a year versus 10 days for the in-office employees -- WHAT?!!! I told them it made no sense to me, since by working at home I was saving them money -- no need to provide office space, equipment, references, utilities, etc. -- yet I get shafted. I was only part-time when they took over the previous company with their great policies, and I told them to kiss where I can't.
Sometimes.....NO news is Good news. sm
Maybe you are doing just fine and everything is correct. Maybe they do no feel you need feedback because your quality is excellent!!
Good thought for the day :-) !!
good news and bad news ----
Good - plenty of work, just landed a new acct.
Bad - Check posts from a few weeks back. Out of the blue, everyone got a huge pay cut.

TSI in Texas
I worked in a hospital where TSI picked up the overflow. I worked with them for a couple of years before quitting that job. I got hired on with them a year or two later. I turned my notice on day #90. Disorganized. Too much down time. Poor technical support. Marketing rep making promises MTs could not deliver on. Swapped around on accounts left and right, each time waiting up to 3 days for tech support to make the adjustments on their end. Poor sound quality. Difficult platform. And don't get me started on the attitude of the owner (long private story).
This used to be TSI out of Texas
Check the boards! I worked for this company and left because of management issues. If you have a problem they don't want to hear anything about it! Not sure if they changed platforms but the one I used was archaic and was paid by the word. You also had to have about 3 phone lines to hook into their system. Was a real pain!
TEXAS...nm
Plano, Texas
MTS of Texas
I don't see very much about MTs of Texas. If anyone out there is currently working for them or you are familiar with them, I would appreciate it if you share. Thanks in advance.
I think they are all in Texas. nm

Anyone from MTs of Texas?
I just accepted a position with MTs of Texas and am very excited. Anyone else from MTS of Texas? Looking to network with fellow colleagues.
MTS of Texas
Would like to hear from present and past transcriptionists regarding this company. Good and bad, i.e., does getting paid by the minute earn you a good pay check, good accounts, platforms, etc. Thanks for your time.
Thanks. No, not in Texas. NM

DALLAS, TEXAS ANYONE
Does anyone know what some of the nicest areas are in Dallas?
A company in Texas.

In Texas by any chance?

Scribeix in Texas?
Opinions anyone?
Definitely Transtech. The one in Texas. They are not the same
company.
University of Texas -- Oh yea! n/m

Really?! I thought they were in Texas.
At least that was the impression I got from talking to the recruiter. 
Medscript in Texas
anybody know anything about medscript in texas? Based in houston, has offices in dallas and tyler.
Aren't they out of Texas
TransTech is in Texas. TTS is in

Does anyone type on Texas
Are there alot of ESLs on the Texas account?
To Texas Girl...
Actually, my BOB - 10+ accounts for which I have 3 primary accounts out of - has standardized client profiles, no need look at client profile for each account or try to remember different rules. All now have the same formatting rules and ADT info requirements and very few dictator-specific differences. I realize that not all service areas have done this yet and not all areas of MQ are managed the same and I probably would not be as happy if I were in one of those, but I stuck it out and they made the changes promised in my area and I am now so much more productive. The accounts are better than I had before MQ as far as number of ESL and other difficult dictators, the ASR reports on average are good and I can more than make up for the 30% cut in pay on them - only get on average 5 or 6 a day though.
I guess it depends on where you end up when hired at MQ how good or bad things are. I have moved around a lot over many years in this business and probably will stay here until retirement if I am able - depending on what happens with CBay and all. I have found the right fit for me with MQ with adequate pay, the schedule I want, plenty of work, reliable paycheck and PTO - a big plus after a stint being IC, and nobody hanging over my shoulder watching my every move. The only time I ever hear from anybody is in answer to a question I have asked and the daily TAT logs from my PS. That is the way I like it, leave me alone to do my thing. I have no reason to leave.
I am glad you found the right place for you, having only one account that is always busy is the best situation to be in. You are lucky because that is not so easy to find anymore. 
You definitely did NOT want the Texas account
Can you say ESL, I knew you could.
Tyler Texas
Was this acct in Tyler, Texas? Where my friend works they lost some of their work to Transcend and she lives in Texas.
Texas Hospitals
I am currently working for a Texas Hospital as well. They are not even open as they do not have power and are not sure WHEN they will be back. So my work has been NONE since about the same time frame.
Here is to hoping there are better times ahead for our Texas Hospitals and for all the Texas Hospital Transcriptionists.
Any info on MTs of Texas
 I am looking for Radiology information specifically, but any info would be fantastic!!
Thanks so much!
Not slow in Texas.
HI: My account is in Texas, but not the company. No we are not slow. Try applying with KS. I think they are hiring too. Have to warn you that it is a very hard account. Old veteran MT's are stressed out from working there. They demand that you are fast, very accurate, which you should be anyway and also willing to work at any time if they are overloaded with work. I kid you not. They will call you too on your days off to get more help. OH WELL. So if this sounds good to you, go for it.
I HOPE IT'S IN TEXAS!!! nm

Why in Texas specifically? I would think - SM
labor laws would pretty much encompass the entire US, e.g., minimum wage laws apply in all 50 states, laws regarding overtime pay, etc. The rampant abuse MTSOs have been allowed to get away with affects MTs EVERYWHERE, from sea to shining sea ... MTs in OK, NJ, FL, OR, NC, I could go on and on... all of them have bills to pay, children to feed, and these MTSOs in sheeps clothing likewise lurk in all corners of the country. 
SurgicalNotes out of Texas?
Just wondering if anyone has any information on them, works for them, knows someone that works for them, etc?
Just got a job offer from them but really don't want to walk into yet another company that isn't worth the headache. The $$$ is very tempting but want some facts first.
Thanks
Transcription Solutions, Texas
Does anyone have any current information on Transcription Solutions, Texas - radiology or acute care. How are they to work for. How is pay rate compared to others? TIA
Anybody have any experience with Mediscript, Texas? nm

6000 lines for SE in Texas
my region requires 6000 lines for SE, which i think sucks. I was lied to months ago. they said that all offices were going to require 6000 lines for SE's across the board. I don't know what would make me think they were telling the truth!!
Anybody know anything about MedTrans Unlimited out of Texas?
What cpl rate do they offer? Any info greatly appreciated.
Would this be the Texas or the Arizona MedTrans? Thx. nm

TransTech is in Texas -yes they are flexible, as far as (sm)
choosing your hours, but they would like you to be on when you say you are going to be unless you notify them. I have not had any problems at all. I've had to leave several times and I just let them know. They have an ad on the job board with their email address. They need a lot of people.
