I do not know All Type or any of the people involved in this but it have been reading along because I am interviewing with them next week. I was very upset by this and scared that I had made the wrong choice. You have made a lot of statements and I was thinking that you were treated unfairly and that I hoped you proved your case in court and maybe make our place in the industry a little stronger. We are the lowest people on the totem pole in every company and we do get kicked around a lot. But you now sound like you had it in for one particular person at your company and have worked very hard to cause problems for that person. I just do not know why you would stay there or even want to go back if you hate this person and she makes you this unhappy with your life and job and she singled you out to cut your pay so drastically. I agree with the other poster who said you have wasted a great deal of time on this and that you should move on and find yourself a better job with a company that is a better fit for you. I think you have gone too far and become far too emotional when you get this dangerously close to slander.

Me thinks the 'lady' doth protest too much - nm
So what exactly IS your point, if any, besides the obvious pedantic and self-righteous diatribe?
We think you protest too much! nm

my personal protest
In honor of my fellow MTs who are soon to be exHeartlanders I, personally, am not going to buy a thing on Friday, July 7, 2006--- nothing, not a gallon of gas, not groceries, not an ice cream cone-- not anything. I'm sure that no one will notice but I hope you will join me anyway.
I think this is outrageous. It seems to me that if Heartland conglomerate laid off 1 top executive one $71 million salary would make a nice little lump in their profit margin instead of laying off 151 MTs!! How outrageous is that! Today, in the minds of politicians America is corporate America, working Americans are just a souless, faceless mass. What's it going to take to change their minds... a revolution?
me think thou doest protest too much
I wasn't accusing you of slowness or less experience. I was speaking generally. Either you are a bit too sensitive or you are indeed a shill for the VR lobby.
I say we protest by not attending this teleconference today!

Me thinks you think too much!!
 Thus, the problemo!
SHE thinks she's the only one who knows how!
 who is that unqualified for the position she's in. You're either SD herself or someone she put up to posting this nonsense because she's definitely an approval seeker and would be horrified to know that she wasn't fooling anyone. Keep shoveling. I find it amusing.
Better thinks about it
They don't pay for spaces. They fine you for mistakes. Everyone is mood at that company. Horrible experience working for them. Better think about it.
Nothing yet. Am I the only one who thinks this is odd???
When companies switch insurance plans, they do it months in advance and not keep working on it long after their insurance is canceled.
The OP thinks she is SM
being specifically singled out for bad treatment because she **dares** to question them. Completely ridiculous. I know all of us would like to believe the world revolves around us, but the reality is that an MT that questions my corrections or feedback is barely noticed by me.
Just like MTs, our working conditions have deteriorated over the years and the majority of us have the same priorities as MTs, getting the work out the door and keeping the office off our back.
Me thinks somebody is a bit paranoid.
I've worked other places and I've never done as well as I have at TT. I doubt they pull the bull you state.
For me, I planning on being there until I retire. I think you should back up your info with FACTS, not RUMOR.
Me thinks it isn't the platform...
that causes the problem, but the company you work for that controls how the lilnes are counted!
She thinks she's texting
.
Me thinks you are not really 'admin.'
Miserableor not, if anyone thinks their

It's called someone thinks we
This is the TTD lady for sure
Or someone who works with her. No MT would be saying so what.
who's happy??? Not everyone thinks you are the cat's meow.

What a minute, one thinks it is fast
and another thinks it is slow and cumbersome. I'm confused now. Can you give details please.
What an idiot this person is. Thinks he has all
the answers and really doesn't have any of them. He doesn't know who I am and cannot comment on anything about what transpired when I worked there.
I have absolutely no reason to lie about my experience with SS. It was a horrible place for lots of reasons and I'll tell anyone who asks about the company my experience to spare them the headache. IF my QA scores were down (how could they be I was in QA), if I didn't stick to my schedule, etc. and got fired I would admit that also, but none of it happened - I QUIT and H did beg me to stay. I know it is hard with all his sliminess to believe he could beg, but beg he did.
I know it was not a type and know poster thinks

The Fat Lady Sang
Yes, but did she sing in harmony?
Thank you kind lady.

some lady called...
sounded more like she was screening me. She asked if I had the required needed to work for them (cardiology/pulmonology), line count, high-speed, etc. I told her yes, and she said someone would call me in a few days--that was a few months ago.
You are way off base lady
I have worked with Holocaust survivors, have you? Ive worked cleaning their rooms taking people for walks, holding hands, listening to stories of horror and hope, shared art therapy moments, given hugs and support. Dont you dare judge me. You are way out of line, whoever you are. If you get nothing else from what I've written here, get this: No one wants to be labeled a victim. You have absolutely no right.
Peace.
She's a nice lady but there isn't
I spent most weekends on her stuff. The pay was way low, but she doesn't charge much anyway. She would dump on me Fri night... not sure why she keeps needing this same position, but that should tell you something. She posts for this position every month or so... I guess no one lasts....
I hear you. I pay NO attention to how good someone thinks they are.
With all that wonderful experience, if you cannot pull the testing, you have just proven you don't know your own skill level.
I got a call the day I sent my resume and answers in. Maybe you the OP is not all that she thinks s
the positions that had open were not a good match for what she has done. I read her post a few times. It says that her skills do match the opening that she applied for, not that she was a bad Transcriptionist or anything like that. Their question sheet is pretty specific. If she was looking for hours that they did not have available or a type of account that they did not have openings for, that would explain it. At least she heard at all. I applied to at least a dozen companies, many mentioned here often as good or great companies, that never even acknowledged my application or resume. Each experience is obviously different.
Sorry, that should be thinks…fingers too fast today

You mean the lady named Pepper at OSI?
who knew!
Ur gettin' on my nerves, old lady!
When the lady sold her company to..sm
Execuscribe, it went downhill from there. I was hired by them, went through ALL of the testing except the Psych thing.....and then I was told I would be paid 7 cpl and I had to purchase liability insurance. CC....this Denise person must have been your "bestest" friend????
nice spelling lady
x
I beg ur pardon, young lady!
I was NOT being sarcastic! Medquist truly IS my best company - my previous company paid $9/hr. and at the Q I make $25 - U may open mouth and insert foot now, missy!
I'd say no way, nice lady or not. There is absolutely no
way I would wait for 45 days for a paycheck. She's waiting to get paid before she pays MT and if she doesn't have the $$ to pay MTs whether or not account pays, that doesn't speak well of the company. Also I'm assuming that 6 cpl is as an IC. You'd be better off working in fast food.
There is a lady who posted here in the past - sm
Snowbunny I think is her name that uses it a lot because of her CTS I think. I just recently reloaded it on my computer (had it on my old one but never programed it), and still need to work with it a bit in order to actually start using it. I think it would help me a lot as I am not very fast at typing, even with my shortcuts, etc. Plus it would break up the monotony some I think. I have DNS8. I want to upgrade to the newest (10) but it is quite expensive, so it will probably wait a while. But I have heard if utilized correctly and with some work it can be worthwhile, but like anything it takes practice and you need to build it up, etc.
The J&J lady said to call her if there are questions.
It doesn't matter to me at all, so I haven't.
High maintenance lady? LOL
High maintenance ladies usually find themselves a sugar daddy to provide their maintenance. LOL Ever consider combining your traveling to help someone who is less high maintenance? Do you know that you can volunteer just about anywhere in the world doing good while vacationing at the same time? How about volunteering with Habitat For Humanity? You could combine that with your traveling too. Gives you a much more warm and fuzzy feeling than just doing for yourself. BTW we just bought a nice large motor home to serve as our private motel room. Actually my husband and I are pretty low maintenance, we get our kicks by doing things for other less fortunate people. Try it, you might like it.
BTW Chatty, how have you been doing the last few years anyhow? Don't ya just love being anon? LOL
Hey coffee lady MssIndigo!
I got a kick out of reading your original post about VR and I appreciate this feedback also. I know, it's though though and I have been an MT for 20 years. I thought I was going to be transcribing when I got the job but it is mostly VR and my minimal goal is to achieve 250 lph, which is creeping up, but not there yet. I tell you though... I work hard for that money. My biggest thing with any new company is constantly looking up docs and different facilities. If not for that, my fingers would be flying. Let us all hang in there with a sip of coffee every now and again, eh!
There's only one way to find out if an employer thinks you'd be as suited for a return to this
.
Anyone who thinks it is "okay" and we should "accept" the way society is changing ...sm
is the reason why it is. The ones who just roll over and take it, should be ashamed for not having backbone and standing up to globalization for not standing up for themselves, our country, and our children and their children. This is the reason why we the whole people are losing control of our government and what they control, offshoring, loss of privacy, etc.
Yet, second company thinks it should work and not mess up other platform (sm)
I will feel better when the actual technician sees about loading it. Not that the recruiters don't know their job, just nervous.
I had others report they are using 1 computer for 2 different companies and maybe having to use a second pedal. Let's hope we are lucky.
Hafta laff -- SM thinks she's quite the master of sarcasm.
In case anyone thinks Escription is a good thing!!
This is just the beginning as more and more records are residing on the internet. And when you go into see your doctor, he is more concerned with making his laptop work and inputting info than he is listening to you. My friends are angry about this as they see it more and more. So EMR, internet, etc are more trouble than they are worth and we can only hope we go back to the way it used to be.
That poster thinks this has nothing to do with spirituality or domestic violence.
See below. She says we are in left field suggesting that. So, the words suck it up has nothing to do with how we treat other people or how we choose to be treated, that is just take the beating? Okay, well if I am in left field, and she has typed me in a psych note, I suppose I should suck that up too. Answering here because I wanted her to read above once again so that this poster can put 2 and 2 together, instead of calling me a nut. Thanks for listening.
She's a sweet lady. She has a lot of experience and a lot of stories that go with it.
I like her a lot, but I can kind of see where you are coming from, as whenever I've spoken with her I could pretty much write off the next 60-90 minutes. It was a great time to clean out email, though! (And if you are reading this, you-know-who, it's not a criticism but rather an acknowledgement that you have a LOT of stories to tell!)
It is the lady who I call to request time off?

Does anyone know how to contact the lady at Administrative Assistants?? (sm)
I can't find anything for a website or in the archives here on how to contact. Thank you.
