that you know is wrong, but you use it anyway? That is what happened there. How embarrassing.

I am stuck at OSi
I tried full time with another company but had issues with their platform and couldn't make my line count so now I'm stuck back at OSi full time and hate every minute of it. I'm too depressed and downtrodden to even keep trying. I feel like I'm in an impossible situation. This has been going on for years and I don't know where to turn. If I make another leap which doesn't turn out I will be in the same boat.
Looks like you are stuck with us.

Sorry - that should be "sincerely" - the "c" key stuck on me again!

should be thought, T key got stuck. nm

Way too mny companies for anyone to be stuck

You bit on it, and now you're stuck!
You can't trust everyone in this profession. One day, you'll wake up and realize what you're doing, which is defending someone who obviously knows how to make a buck off of people like you. Have a nice life!
Use your brain, please...
If you really believe you can make more money working directly for the client, then do that. Or, better yet, go out and find your own clients and see how much they are willing to pay for MT services.
My brain......
I have 17 years of acute care experience. I work at home for a large 350-bed hospital, along with doing clinic for KS. I also do maternal-fetal medicine for another company. I would put my brain up against yours any day. Sometimes having a change, such as clinic, helps to give the brain a rest when spending a day with ops and maternal-medicine reports (which by the way is not easy work). Don't judge me just because of an observation I have made. I have been where hospitals and companies don't assign work out in the hopes certain people will leave. My advice to you, if you don't like it, find something else instead of complaining about it on here.
8.5 cpl?? Are you sure it was NE? They've had pay stuck at 7 and 8 cpl for years! nm

It's true that the new MTs get stuck w/ crap
I found that to be true and got nowhere when I asked to be moved. The person who started this thread is making the right decision by leaving and so am I.
Are U new there? Get stuck with an atrocious acct out of NY? nm

I have been stuck with companies that subcontracted
I work escription and love the platform, but have been stuck working for a company that subcontracted from I don't know where. I have looked for other companies to work for, but find so many subcontract for the company I work for (who gets the work from someone else) and are connected somehow. How can you find the source company to work for? I would really love to know that. Thank anyone in advane who can answer that. It is very true that the more people who take a piece of the pie before you, get the best pieces, hence more money.

It is Sunday, my brain's day off.

You don't any brain cells...
Go back in your cave and stop trashing a good company. After 4 yours, have had nothing but a great experience. Time for you to hit the pharmacy for you meds as you obviously need it.
Maybe not only low work but low brain? LOL nm

Maybe you don't have the brain power...Or,
Ever consider those possibilities, hun?
Food for thought, anyway.
It's a Brain Drain all right!
I don't really care how much money corporations have invested in VR, ASR, whatever they want to call it, I'm voting with my feet. I'm getting re-educated in a different field and leaving transcription as soon as it is feasible. In the meantime, I am actively seeking IC work that is straight transcription.
JUST SAY NO TO VR!
Engage YOUR brain please...
It is most certainly a pay cut. I have worked on ChartMatrix and can tell you that this software is slower. I did not see any improvement whatsoever in the quality of the SR that I did on that software compared to what we are working with now. I would have to be able to consistently do more than 350 lph with the new software in order for it not to be a pay cut based on what I am making now with our current ISR. In the example she provided the MT was only doing about 280 or so LPH with the ISR, correct? I know it was NOT over 300...
you are ignorant and stuck in the Middle Ages...
VR is not always bad, the bad is that the pay is much, much too low. It should pay the same as straight.
The platform is Word. Their program works with Word but does not change how Word works. nm
The benefits just changed the first part of this month. I don't have them but I remember them being reasonabl for a single person. Family and spouse was not reasonable in any way (in my opinion).
that tells me some people don't know how to use their brain.

LOL tired brain too. That s/b More week nm
gone back to bed - but i understand about brain being off
Sunday is the only day I dont use punctuation, too.
oops..had a brain freeze.
MQ does provide equipment. not sure, however, if PT flex is provided with equipment or not.
Its going offshore because so many brain-dead MTs
admittedly don't care if the company they work for offshores. I refuse to work for any company that offshores. I am an AMERICAN and until every American has adequate work, I say, keep our work here. We are being the authors of our own demise by our I have got mine kinds of selfish attitudes.
LOL, it has occured to me I had a brain fart!...
When the coordinator mentioned getting a copy of my license she probably was talking about my driver's license/ID. 
TRANSCEND - Sorry - too many trans on the brain

If you have to use what THEY say to use, you're stuck. Ctrl + I and logging in to iChart do not

I saw the writing on the wall a long time ago. Sorry for those who stuck around!! sm
I sure hope you find something soon......my heart goes out to you. Lesson learned, I suppose. When people show you who they really are....believe it.
I was in Fort Wayne so I dont think we know each other. I stuck it out until 2005, SM
pay went down, down, down.
If there's no lifeboats left, we're stuck on this Titanic n/m

Anyone with half a brain knows why they lost the account.
I know why, but I don't understand why. It is like they did it on purpose. Why not just sell-out to start with, why let it get to the point that it did and have their name smeared everywhere (let me say justly so). I know there are still MTs who don't know all the details and I myself probably don't know all of them, but I know lots of details and they aren't pretty.
Big MT...we're sharing the same brain waves again
That's my definition of IC as well. I used to have that position with MQ, but with all of their changes I'm...well...looking elsewhere. I have no problems with promising a number of lines as long as I don't have to do them at a specific time. Things happen, especially when you have kids, but if you have the work ethic you'll still get things done, just not at a specific time. Agree with the pool as well. You'll never have a great line count unless you have consistent dictators. If anyone believes differently, I don't think they've seen how fab your line count can be with the same dictators. Anyway, it sounds like you work for a wonderful place with all the things I'm looking for, i.e., 24-hour TAT and consistent dictators. Would you mind sharing where and if they would by chance have openings you know of? You can email if you don't want to post it. Don't worry, I'm not thinking I'd start at that cpl--I'm sure you had to work up to that:-) I'm really just looking for the other perks.
"After 4 yours" ? eh? Who doesn't have brain cells now? nm

Sorry for the typo/brain fluff-offense

Mine didn't seem to work when I had it minimized, so I'm stuck using their own expander, which
,
2400 lines, I'm stuck on that number. 8 hours??? I want to see her answer that one.
outstanding account(s) to do this in 8 hours. We had one whole week lately with no work at all, maybe get 30 lines an hour. And it wasn't just our office, people were calling NJ also about not having any work.
And if you are doing quality work, you have to be slowing down to make out the slurrs and bad grammar.
Well, her day will come. When they turn her into an editor, and her accounts dry up into nothing but VR let's see what happens. And her account must be very simple (tasty for VR grabbing), it will disappear.
LOL
No one is stuck with the worst. The work is not pooled like MQ. It is by account and FIFO. nm

small to medium company that works in Word or Word-based program - email me. nm
nm
ExText is integrated with Word. Auto correct is a part of Word.
ExText is a Word based platform. When the page opens for you to type the document it will be just like you are typing in MS Word.
anyone work for Oracle - do they use Word or a Word-based program - e-mail me nm

I can't figure out how to use the shorthand properly (brain dead I guess) (sm)
Maybe I haven't taken enough time to learn it (I can be a bit impatient with myself), but I seem to have a mental block and have about given up. I used to have Smartype with my old system (before DQS) and wonder if it worked with Vianeta. Anyway, anyone out here, what do you use other than the ShortHand that comes with it?
Oops,meant making "more" (brain lapse)

OMG, Correction, brain fart, Axolotl doesn't run out and if they so you get paid. nm

Just wanna work in Word - need company that works in WORD! nm

Their program works with Word and does not change how Word functions. sm
You use your own expander. Overall I feel it is user friendly and I like it.
ps: Please excuse typos! "Hands-working-faster-than-brain syndrome!" haha (nm)

Does the Emdat platform use Word or is it Word-based? nm

Word for Word Medical Transcription
Pros and cons please.
In his ad, he's asking for Word Perfect, not Word, if that matters. nm
