Yep, she emailed me, said she definitely was not a recruiter but would I let her know ....
my strengths, weaknesses, likes, dislikes, etc., and had I ever done teaching hospitals, etc. I did that and told her how much experience I had, then never heard back again. Oh well...I guess she changed her mind about sharing. :(
Going on strike?
I didn't know about going on strike. One post said she cried and kissed a**. Well, she got the job. LOL LOL
Strike
See what happens when people have had enough. They strike and paralyze a city like New York.
Our shoes were made for walking, after union, MTA stop talkin. Today's New York Daily News Headlines.
Gotta love New York. They certainly know how to get their point across.
Transcriptionists should unite and stop putting up with low pay, payroll issues, and attitudes.
Strike
I too am very disgusted with this whole concept!! Basically, if us US MTs do not get together and do something then we too are allowing it to go on. It would be nice if our AAMT could get on the bandwagon and start advocating for the US MTs, instead of making company's that do this the Employer of the year!! I am not a member of the AAMT and will not be one as I feel they support these companies. It is a shame we do not have an organization that does something for US MTs. I think the future of medical transcription has a very grim future right now. This has to be turned around, and we have to figure out a way to make companies like Spheris pay for what they are doing to the industry and to us. Hey Spheris MT's A STRIKE would sure make this company think twice about underpaying all their MTs. Quit working for a few days and let them start paying penalties for late work. Maybe it will make them think about the way they treat their employees. I know it is hard for some to afford to do this, it would be for me. But the benefits you may get in the long run would give a return worth while!! Worried about loosing your job, well, sounds like layoff is coming soon anyway!! Organize something for yourselves to protect your future for the good of all MTs. All MTs should seriously think about this. We just cannot let this go on...We all have to demand better wages!!
On strike, perhaps?

Are you going to pay my bills while strike is on?

Well, I did go on strike, and it is working
I am thinking about turning the Transcend job down and just keep getting dough off e bay. I am getting 200 bucks or so every 3 days, and until I find a company or MTSO that does not bait and switch, at least I am getting cash in. I have half a mind to let the recruiter know about what I am hearing about Transcend, but I think I'll say nothing and just return the foot pedal they are sending refused back to them in the mail. That's it. I have had it with the bait and switch. I know no company is perfect, but this time in my life and in our business, seems there is little if anywhere that will give an experienced MT some room to breathe, and a fair shake. BTW: If any MTSO is out there which is willing to let a good MT contract with a flexible schedule and fair work and line count feel free to e mail. Otherwise, I have finally done it. Decided to go 100% E bay. Pays a little more than minimum wage for my time and effort, but at least it isn't minimum wage and bait and switch!
Didn't mean to strike a nerve.
or voicewriter to work for Keystrokes by the recruiter. I just left a big company in Wisconsin. I couldn't get over 900 lines a day because of filling in their DI screen and here it's Christmas. Gimme a break.
We need to start a strike fund
If we could get organized and that is a big IF and find a trustee to watch the money, I wonder what would happen if we all contributed a certain amount to a strike fund so that we could all walk off the job for a period of time and not worry about the money we would lose. Just a thought.
Dsauverwald doesn't strike me as an MT anyway...

its one thing for the MTA to strike - they will not lose their jobs
to INDIA!!! But transcriptionists will and HAVE lost their jobs to India and the Philipines and now more recently, to Trinidad
Single strike day? Gimme a date, and I'm THERE!
My husband has been on STRIKE for almost four months and we are barely getting by!! The union made
big promises and all I can say is we have lost our job! We are struggling to get by! If you go on strike and do WITHOUT you will see what I mean!

I emailed those below about LTS - sm
in short, good company, good people, pay on time, true IC, have 24-hour TAT---they give you the work, you get it in by deadline that is all they ask. Few hard docs, not a pool but you get do get a variety of assorted doctors (30 or so). They have many accounts at the one of the local hospitals and continously getting more. Plenty of work, in the five years I have worked for them I think it has gotten slow only 2 x and then only for a few days. Small MTSO, the owner and his office manager (who basically runs the company). If you have any questions, just email me.
