Oh brother, how unprofessional are they?

Ask to speak to the QA supervisor and collect all the e-mails you are getting with conflicting ways to nit-pick. Show her the e-mails and tell her you are confused. You would be happy to do what they want, but you are being pulled in different directions. If she is not accommodating, look for another job. Who needs that grief?

Oh brother
This is sad, when they cannot even spell things correctly in an ad.
It isn't even run my MTs. The CEO and his brother
are in it for the $$, but have never transcribed a day in their lives and don't have a clue about the business. Unfortunately they hire management who also don't have a clue, despite having some knowledge/experience with MT.
brother!
you forgot to put in there after your long novel, not to toot my own horn or anything. Please, spare us.
OH BROTHER
Someone has something NICE to say for a change about their company and they want to tell the rest of us about and you guys have to act like jerks! Maybe she wanted to tell all about DR and how nice they are. Maybe you guys can't handle the fact that your companies did give you a bonus? I think some people are jealous and are handling it BADLY! You guys only want to hear the bad, negative, gossip about a company. Only then are you happy. What a shame.
Merry Christmas OP and God Bless. Happy B-Day Jesus!
Oh brother....there is always one isn't there. sm
Grow up! 
Oh Brother
Here we go again. Float checks. Well, aren't we just little Ms. Perfect. I haven't had a bounced check in 16 years, so don't need to redeem yourself to me. I have a backup account in case my TT DD is not in on time, so I DO have a backup plan. As for communication, TT communicates better than ANY company I have ever worked for in the past. Maybe the lack of communication is on YOUR end. Have you ever thought about picking up a phone and calling THEM if you have a question. WOW...what a concept.
Here's what my brother-in-law said
I said, wow you must do a lot of digging... he said no that's what the Mexicans are for. So you tell me?
We had 3 bids for our landscaping around our pool at our old house. We picked the Mexican business and not only because they were cheaper, but they were smarter and they had better ideas. It took them one day, where others said it would take a week. So please, let's not go there. I would recommend this landscaping business we used to anyone and everyone. They were very professional unlike the pool installers who had to use my bathroom and asked me for soda, yes soda, not water, but they wanted soda!!!!
oh brother
These lines at TT are defintely more difficult to accomplish. Promise.
Oh Brother
YOU must be one of the ones that just wants to work on one slow account. There's plenty of work and a huge amount now. Stop being so lazy and work and passing judgment and saying things that aren't true on a company that you are obviously still with. Or you can always go elsewhere. Yeah, that's the ticket, go somewhere else.
oh brother...
One of my jobs is working for a nephrology clinic for 3 docs. I am the only one who types for them. Sorry, I'm valuable to them. I also do acute care combined with outpatient and rad. I suck at operative reports but love rad. There are others whom I work with love OPs but can't do rad. They are valuable with OPs, I am valuable with rad. Therefore, we are ALL valuable. Heller??
oh brother...nm

I bet you believe in the Big Brother theory too!
So you are saying that the moderator and administrator of this board specifically search through the posts and delete any negative posts about Transcend? They do this why? Why do they not do this for every other company talked about on this board? Please, add something substantial to the conversation!
do you do my sister and brother-in-law
really don't know what company it is - she says it is local - they are in Ottumwa.
That would be hear... oh brother...
then here... why did I even get out of bed today? LOL.
Oh brother. No, many MT companies will NOT
be using it because it is a ripoff & a one-third reduction in pay, unless of course you raise the line rate 33% to make it level ground again, and in that case, what on earth would be the point?! Sounds like someone could possibly be laying the groundwork to pocket a 33% bigger profit margin though... A couple of MT companies I know of have tried this in the past & have since gone back to paying a regular 65-char line with spaces.
AMEN SISTER/BROTHER!!! nm
I agree. Whoever is responsible for this crappy platform and at the cost (I believe) of $1 million screwed up royally!!!
Well what is in Oldsmar, just the husband and brother?
The website and checks say the Palm Harbor address.
my brother is right Trust is always earned.

Brother, read it first before putting out a sad face. nm

Dont know who died but Oh Brother has my vote.

That's not just unprofessional.... sm
it's illegal ! I would forward those emails with a letter of explanation to the Department of Labor. You'll see how fast SS changes their tune. And by the way, if they know who you are by your posts, then the companies and the administrators of this forum are obviously on the same back-stabbing team. Bet this gets deleted before you can say "shove it" !!
very unprofessional
If your oversea MTs are that great, why bother with us Americans? If I worked for your company, I would quit yesterday.
Unprofessional
This is very unprofessional. Imagine If we all knew what hospital you were referring to? This is confidential information and should be kept such, not even funny.
UNPROFESSIONAL
Perhaps the term suck is unprofessional. However, since you are not with FN, perhaps never have been and never will be, I reiterate that I personally never confirmed anything about work or no work. What I said had you read it closely is that as per many companies throughout the US, there are periods of a lull. I never said there was no work and you are quoting out of context. If you seem to have a problem with FN why don't you just go to the source instead of using a public forum to confirm unwarranted comments from others about something they no nothing about.
unprofessional
It's just totally unprofessional for either MT or management...and totally uncalled it.
I think it would be really unprofessional
I think it would be really unprofessional and immature on the part of the company who is sending it around...if they do exist. I also wouldn't want to work for a company who participated in that drama either, either blacklisting people or not hiring people because of it. There are always two sides to each story. It's not fair to not hear the other side or to not give that MT a shot because of what a disgruntled employer has to say.
If I were doing the hiring, I would start questioning the credibility of that company and actually probably see why the MT left/quit/got fired in the first place. It is up to the MT to prove him/herself and if it doesn't work out, well then fire him/her.
I have no doubt that it goes on, especially with smaller/medium MTSOs who are friends. That's just my opinion, though. I know some companies I had worked for had no issue complaining to me about their own transcriptionists incessantly, personal and private matters included, so I have no doubt they ran their mouth to other people in the industry about them. Made me paranoid/wonder what they said about me.
Unprofessional and Same As Before
Recruiter was unprofessional (um, um, um, let me check, um, um...). Told the recruiter that I worked for them 5 years ago and had a horrible experience, rude QA, rude team leaders, inaccurate QA (grade wrong and when pointed out the account specifics, they get very rude), 99% ESL doctors on all accounts. He said they were still the same with the 95% to 99% ESL dictators and didn't know about the rest of the staff problems. Pay was on time, but never received anything worth cashing at the bank due to lousy dictators. If you ask for another account with more American-speaking doctors, they said that all the accounts had the same type of doctors, and they did. I got put on 4 different accounts and had plenty of work but unable to translate the dictation. I personally think that they only get the accounts that other transcription services REFUSE to do. There are a lot of companies out there that have better dictators and more professional/knowledgeable recruitors and more knowledgeable, friendlier and team-oriented QA and team leaders, so please don't waste your time with the same nightmare as 5 years ago.
You take the Geritol and start typing, Missy. Big brother is watching! They
Can't put up with that kind of bull from my employer!
My husband and his brother have a business with a small office that has 12 people in it.
I do the books for them. The electric bill is over $4000 every month. The lease is $5200. The phones are $3200. The list goes on and on with overhead, not including payroll, totally over $20,000 per month.
I respect that the company I work for has overhead and am grateful that THEY have to deal with it, not me. Otherwise, I would have started on my own.
Unprofessional people
This company is very, very unprofessional. They expect a new hire to know what each doctors wants within a 24 hour period of time. They EXPECT that. They are also very rude in conversations. Just beware.
very unprofessional and rude (sm)
and I was able to find much better work for myself, at Proscript.
I don't think I've seen anyone more unprofessional here
than this person. I pity anyone that works for her.
Unprofessional and ridiculous! sm
Unless it is done in conjunction with a real test.
Extremely unprofessional nm
Are you a member of management?
It was just as unprofessional of the poster--sm
above to have asked who had been contacted by this company. The person who requested resumes to be sent has been harassed for the past three days trying to find out a name of the company. I guess she has had enough and I don't blame her. They probably weren't real names anyway. Sheesh!
If you are an MTSO, you are really unprofessional
JMO. 
Very unprofessional, they are not honest, some of their
accounts are horrendous, they offshore but don't want you to know that.
That is extremely unprofessional...sm
It's also very direspectful to one of us. We are all a family of MTs here, so I take this personally!! I think you should post this up top as a separate post so everybody can see it better. They need to know about this company's baby fits if they don't get their way. They wouldn't be making any money if it wasn't for us!!!
I find this all very unprofessional.
start a yahoo group? That would be better than how you are reflecting yourself here. You are showing you're true colors. It is quite obvious you are frequenting this board.
Your pay rate is very low. Your demands are high, and you are not showing anything here but how unprofessional and NOT BUSY you are!
Please save it! You have obviously burned some MTs, and they are not getting past it! So, why do you continue to post? You are like stirring the pot! Your original post was enough. Really it was.... 
P/S: No, I am not an ex-disgruntled IC (really should be employee) with the demands you have on there.
Then, you have the nerve to respond to someone asking about line rates that you charge anywhere from 9 on up, yet your starting rate is 8 for 2nd shift, but you claim you cannot afford to pay more. Shady!
Oh, brother. You "believe" she handed the phone to someone. Jeeze. You're so credible!

Rolling eyes is quite unprofessional, IMO. sm
Get over it disgruntled. My goodness, did they expect you to do horrible things like to work 8 hours a day and meet minimums? Shame on them for expecting such of a Primadonna.
Precisely. We have had some very unprofessional people sm
and some who turn their editing back in unedited. I will not say the name of the company because I am not a recruiter, just someone who thought I'd help get resumes for the positions. At last count, apparently some people cannot read and we keep getting resumes, the resume count is 179.
Its not Shapin. It is a small midwestern company located in middle America, Illinois.
You can nag all you want, but I have no say in hiring, nor do I have any say in firing.
If you want, I'll list the names of all the people who applied and then you can see who you can contact to see if you know any of them?
I read it. Very unprofessional and childish
but he/she can be that way because he/she did not name the company, which again is very unprofessional and shows that someone has something to hide.
You just took the prize for being unprofessional my dear.
A professional would never take such a minor issue and blurb it on a chat page. A professional would have approached the maker of the typo or would have just looked past it. Pretty sad when you have to stroke your own ego over a typo.
Using people's names is really against the rules and you should not do so. It is unprofessional.
do you? Why do you think it is right to name a person and then slam their name. If you think this is right, then tell me why? It is not right and it should not be allowed.
Lee has been told before..it is VERY unprofessional and raises big red flags sm
when the owner or the KS Lead MT posts rebuttles and tries to defend her company. You and she know full well things were not well with that company for a long time. Sounds like things are turning around but posts like yours only demean..methinks thou doth protest too much Let your reputation be built on happy employees, the sour grapes might be unhappy employees, former employees, people gossiping about what was heard, etc. Do you see ANY other MT company coming here and defending itself? No..I don't either. Think about it. Keystrokes reputation preceeds itself..it will take time for that reputation to be restored.
lousy mgmt/response, unprofessional.
x
Shapin...unprofessional, disorganized, let go without any warnings at all.
I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy! 
You may never - seems this is common from this company - how unprofessional & rude
I'm thinking..unprofessional. First impressions are everything and my impression is....
I wouldn't want to work for someone like that. There would probably never be any way to ever please her. I mean how many of us at one point in our careers thought we were doing a great job only to have a supervisor or someone else tell us our work stinks..It's obviously subjective versus objective opinion. I just think her ad had a very unprofessional and rude tone to it and I am guessing that she has been burned or thinks she has. I just don't think you'd want to portray your attitude upon potential new hires. I will say...the ad did make me laugh, but there is a time and place for jokes and posting as a job ad isn't where you'd want to make people either offended or laugh at you.
