Dont start WWIII here
I am southern, have worked southern and where in the world do you assume that the companies here try to push religion down your throat. I have said before and will say again, when you assume you are usually wrong. I do not even attend church and true southern. Some people!
Why dont we start a list of NO PAYS and save everyone else the trouble of applying?

Not offended
Just do not know what original post was in regards to.
you should be offended
Just because your white ancestors had a heart does not negate or excuse what has happened to your native ancestors. Do you speak for all native persons? Do you have to be a native person in order for that remark is offensive to you?
Indian giver (or Indian gift) is a North American English expression used to describe a person who gives something and later wants it back, or something equivalent in return.
The term Indian gift was first referenced in 1765 by Thomas Hutchinson,[1] and Indian giver was first cited in John Russell Bartlett's Dictionary of Americanisms (1860)[2] as Indian giver. When an Indian gives any thing, he expects to receive an equivalent, or to have his gift returned.
The phrase is considered a racial stereotype and is often offensive, as it implies that Native Americans commonly practiced this behavior.
I would have been very offended if I had been
asked if I NEEDED 3 days as well. It's almost as if they are asking if it's really that bad and are you sure you can't come back sooner!! I have never worked for a company that treated their employees like that. In the past when we've had deaths in the family (brother-in-law and both sets of parents)I was always told to take as much time as I needed and not to worry about a thing. Hubby on the other hand had to bring the little folder they print out and give to everyone at the funeral even for his OWN parent's funerals to prove he had been there all because some people in his company had taken time off supposedly for bereavement and didn't have anyone die.
Re above. Sorry to offended MT, but OP is prime

I was not offended by the comment
I have a child who stutters, and I know the problems faced with that difficulty. For her it hasn't been a disability so much  I have had stuttering dictators. Some were great - one I had on a clinic I LOVED b/c he took his time and didn't get rushed. However, I have one on my account now who slurs, whispers, never corrects and is nearly impossible to understand. I know there are issues w/ stuttering and I admire those who have overcome them to become doctors. However, I don't think that gives them any more leeway to be bad dictators than those who don't stutter. As far as being offended, I wasn't - i totally understand the frustration!
I'm more offended by the typos in the ad. nm
I dont cherry pick, never did. I dont do that to my coworkers on my account.
What is the new status. I dont understand what it means. I dont need their benefits nor do I want
them.
I dont know what that means. I am an SE. I dont sit and wait for work I come back in when it is
there so I never had to deal with Amherst when there was no work because I just stopped working and did other things. My feeling is if this doesnt work there are other jobs out there.
I just dont want to hit that extra space if I dont get paid for it, ya know. No message.

If I cant make QA, dont give me work. Dont dock

I wasn't offended, please do not feel bad. sm
I rarely post here because of the nay-sayers and bashers and get a little defensive when I think someone is about to react that way.
If I were you, I would go to the lead directly and ask if you can either go to another ER account or work with you on this. Not every account is for every MT and vice versa. There is a perfect fit for everyone, and Keystrokes works with everyone to find it. Also, I heard there is another ER account about to start, might get your name on their list if you want!
I was not offended or feeling superior.
you meant by your question? Did you mean that you did not know what MTIA was and were asking if DSG made up an organization or if you meant that DSG was pretending to be a member of MTIA and intentionally misdirected people to a different website? Or did you mean something else entirely? Without knowing what you meant by the use of is it a scam, it was difficult to formulate an appropriate response. I am sorry if my reply made you feel inferior. That was not at all my intent, I was simply asking for clarification so as to better address the inquiry.
It is far more likely that whoever designed the website used MTIA.org instead of MTIA.com when creating the link, which I am sure you could have figured out for yourself.
Now I'm offended at your post, where you imply that
a neurosurgeon. Shame on you!! Janitor is derogatory - custodian is respectful and also the politically-correct term these days!
I'm offended by the Rude TUDE
of the individual posting it. Just doesn't sound like a professional first class operation. Sounds low class, cuthroat and sends out red flags. Danger Will Robinson! Payment might be an issue.
I'm sure Anne, Sue and Mary are very offended by your comments...NOT!

I am offended by your "nonsense about no work" comment.
I have been with MDI for many years and very much like this company, but the workload on my accounts has been very slow for several months now, and I have multiple accounts. I have not had a full paycheck for months and I work all hours of the day and night, so it is certainly not no work nonsense for me. I am hanging in there because I really like this company, and the workload will surely pick up again after the summer vacations, at least I sure hope so. I can't ever remember such a slow summer, and I am not sure if there is a lack of work or too many people trying to cover it, but there has definitely been a work shortage for quite awhile. This may not be true for all the accounts, may only be on certain accounts, I do not know, I just know that has been my experience, as well as some other MTs I am in contact with. So to when we're out here struggling, for you to say it is nonsense and you smell a troll, especially being fairly new to the company, is really lousy, IMO.
Not being in the 'inner elite circle' I used to be offended
because they were always posting about so-and-so making a kazillion lines and how happy and wonderful for them, and on and on - yeah right, while I would be sitting there struggling with the really bad dictators, losing hundreds of dollars a month doing VR - not even able to make my minimum.
People should not be forced to be social on the job. If you had a private site somewhere for those who do then you would not be offending anyone. Then you could all go warm and fuzzy over each other.
This business is cut-throat in reality, and it seems to me there are always a certain group of MTs who get all the good meaty work, but you always have the people to clean up the garbage.
Not nice to have it thrown in your face.
And she actually seemed offended when I politely declined...geeeesh! nm
alskd
I didnt get the packet, do we have to take their insurance if we dont need it. I dont want it. Wish
I would have gotten the stupid thing to read.
Praying most certainly DOES put food on the table! I am extremely offended by your post.

The people at CardioScribes called us transcribers. I wasn't offended, sm
but I always thought a transcriber was the piece of equipment on my desk. The other poster is right, though -- better than typist .. UGH.
Well, I know that MTs from my office have quite MQ and they dont post on here but I dont know how
many. I think MTs with MQ may be getting second jobs and just working for 2 different places at the same time which is probably the smart thing to do anymore because MQ will continue with this short TAT and as it spreads throughout other offices people will continually be running out of work especially after going on DQS.
You obviously have the wrong company. If they dont IM you, then you dont have it on..
I smell management. Nothing you said makes sense unless there is another Focus out there.
Sorry if I dont like gutter humor. Also dont like

TransHealth has some that start the next month after you start work. nm

Dont kid yourself that people dont know what is going on. Do you honestly think these office people
dont talk. Maybe you should make sure you know what you are talking about before you open your mouth.
You dont have to tell me..
I see it quite clearly. Some of that stuff is just plain crap, and it takes longer to change every other word or heading, etc. than to just type it yourself. Trust me, I know the game they are running. I am just trying to prevent others from going through the same thing a lot of us are going through right now. All of this could have been avoided by just having a little more consideration towards their MTs. There is ABSOLUTELY no reason why we should have had to work for 12 days and not know what we were making--NO REASON. I think this really shows just how much they really DON'T care about us as MTs, and that makes me both sad  and angry  .
I dont know why
WHY what did your lawyer think?
dont do it
there are jobs out there that are more dependable. Dont go there. Not right now. Honestly, the system is new and there have been many new changes implemented. They are still in the process of making changes and it is a mess. The system has so many bugs in it that it is constantly going down and screwing up. There are times that it is down for hours and hours. You cannot depend on getting your line count in. Also, there is lack of work on many, many accounts way too often. They are going to editing and you will only get paid about 4 cpl. It is a mess. Please look somewhere else.
Dont do it. Dont take the job. You will
really regret it. I was laid off from my hospital job and went to work for a national and it has been the absolute worst experience. My income has gone down so much that I leave the answering machine on now because the bill collectors are calling me every day. The security of knowing that you are paid by the hour no matter what makes all of the difference in the world. When the national has platform problems, computer problems, no work (which happens frequently), etc. you are NOT PAID. You just have to sit and wait until THEY fix it. The benefits are nothing like you get working in house and they are so expensive. I just really think you should consider all of these factors and understand that it is very different from working for a hospital.
At least it has been for me, they dont TELL you to sit and
and I dont if I dont want to. If I have otherthings to do, I do them. Places to go, I go. As FT though, I do make up the hours or use PTO (which I hate doing) and really more now since my company took any PTO over 40 hours we had not used as of 12/31.
I dont know but it
is a paid ad, so they have to still be in business. They can't be too hard to find on Google or they would damage their business dealings. Sorry, I just saw the banner and knew people were questioning their existence.
I just dont do it
I personally do not accept a job that pays low. I can understand if you need the job yesterday; but with forethought and planning, a seasoned Transcriptionist should NOT work for peanuts EVER! I try not to accept less than 10 cpl, period; 9 cpl is really easy account as a subcontractor of course.
DONT DO IT! nm

DONT DO IT
DON'T DO IT...they ARE the same company as in the Phillipines operated by a very nasty CEO that will NOT pay you. She has been sued so many times for non payment. Not good people to work for.
DONT DO IT
YES they are the same company in Tennessee and the Phillipines. I use to work in both offices...trust me...DONT DO IT...very nasty owner, short fuse and will NOT pay you!
Dont ask, dont tell. nm

please dont tell me ...sm
They use it on rad accounts. I hope it's Lanier.
DONT DO IT! nm

I dont know about everyone else, but my PC
In the last coupla weeks, it's slowed down about 50%.
You dont have to have radar here
Agree with poster above who said that only you can change things for yourself. Maybe shouldnt have used the terms babies. Fine, okay, I'll admit that. And I dont take anything on here personally. All I am saying is that all anyone does anymore is complain. It is tiresome and old.
you work there dont you? You tell us

Dont you wish someone would have warned you?...
I have gotten a lot of grief for trying to warn people about what was happening to me and others and that it would soon be happening to a large majority of you. I think it is a duty that we should all have. Why would you let someone else go through something horrible if you could possibly stop it. I loved the "old" Transcend and its management--not too happy with the "new" Transcend or its management. However, that is my opinion. I see there are many others with the same opinion, and these number will continue to grow if Transcend does not wake up. I was a "Current Transcender" until now. I just can't do it anymore. I tried to fight the good fight and hold on to them (at least until I found something else better), but my children need to eat, and I have a mortgage and bills to pay. I can no longer be a Transcend cheerleader. I was a cheerleader in the past and referred other MTs to the company (all of whom left before I did), but it is just a really "bad" place to work as far as wages go. I have to do what is best for me now. I can't go bankrupt for Transcend. Thank God I had the wisdom to find another job to supplement early on in this "transition" process. If not, I would be homeless now. I certainly do not wake up every day with my only purpose being to bash Transcend. I had to be honest with myself and others or I couldn't sleep at night. I wish all of you the best and hope you and Transcend figure it all out before it is too late for you.
Dont worry,
I never got a phone call, but got my packet today.
One word......DONT'!
if that;s the stuff you want, DONT' GO THERE!

maybe there is another Transhealth we dont know about lol
