If you post a message
with your email address...even though none of us can see what your email address is...the administrator is able to see it. If you post a negative post, along with your email addy, and your negative posts is about one of her main squeeze companies, she can and HAS forwarded this info along to them.
Even though this site IS able to track your IP address, the don't know your identity this way. Of course it is possible to find that out through a law enforcement agency with good reason however, those who enter your email addy when posting are capable of being tracked because more than likely, this is the same email addy that your employer has on file for you.
Now, lets see how long it takes the administrator to delete this post. I already know that transcription matchmaker is one of her pets.

Message to all companies
Thank you for taking the time to read this. There is a new MT below, Christina, (might be on page 2 by now) who needs an online externship to complete her course in medical transcription. I know a lot of the companies read this board, so would one of you please step up and do a wonderful thing by responding to Christina with an externship? I know what it's like to be new, and I am so appreciative of the facility that stepped up to the plate for me almost 12 years ago with just a certificate of completion in my hands and no experience.
I don't know Christina, but my heart goes out to her, my reason for posting this.
Have a wonderful day! I'm praying for you Christina. This is a wonderful, challenging career to get into with big demand. Let us know how you make out.
To BrokeMT from post just below, please see message.....
I'm assuming the company you are dissatisifed with is TransHealth . I myself have just started there recently and I am very disappointed. The people are so nice, but my line count is so low. I can't really figure out what is wrong because I feel like I am typing well but my line count is SO low. Is this what is happening to you?

Why post a message like this with no details?
Oops. There is a brief message to above post. nm

I will bet if all these companies had message board that sm
you would still see the same things as on the MQ board. Same crap goes on everywhere.
hmmm, not seeing a post (?) No message inside

MT in Texas. I left you a message under your older post below
.
see message this post is excellent a fair representation of KS..I copied it from below.
You know who I am. I'm the one who hooked up the Foley at the beginning of my shift. I'm the one who worked extra each and every time I was asked. I'm the one who went into the office to transcribe when it was needed. I'm the one who went on site to help with a new account (and this account actually wanted me to work for them!). I'm the one who transcribed tapes when asked. I'm the one who did the 3-page reports and the docs that no one else wanted when you cut our pay. And I'm the one who worked an 8-hour shift when my air conditioning broke down last summer during one of the hottest days of the year. No one just handed me that huge paycheck, I worked for it.
And now I'm the one who works on two accounts that consider my transcription excellent. As a matter of fact, one account doesn't want anyone BUT me. During my career I was told by one manager and one MTSO that they wished they had 10 of me. I also came highly recommended to you. That speaks volumes about my reliability, stability, flexibility, and quality.
You offer some flexibility. Zero tolerance would be more like it. I had to take three days off for jury duty, my electricity went out twice, and workers cut my cable line, all of which were out of my control. I took five days off in a row once in two years for a very good reason and it was not a vacation. If I had to take time off during my shift, I made up my time that same day. Unfortunately my dentist doesn't have hours on Sunday. I also worked when I was sick. Is that what you mean by not a good fit? I was an IC not an employee.
The kicker for me was when I found out that your coordinator went to the client to find out if I was skipping reports. I have never skipped a report in my entire career. I don't have to. I love what I do and I love a challenge. She also told another employee that no one can do that many specials. I could and I did until she made certain that I didn't.
This field is stressful enough. I certainly don't want to work for someone who places more stress on me, especially when I'm already giving 110%.
When it was all over, I felt like the weight of the world had been lifted off my shoulders. It was then that I decided I would rather be appreciated than used and abused.
companies change all the time - her info is old, she said. (sm/small message)
A turnover in managers,QA, leads, even recruiters can make an impact and happens all the time, so you never know; old info - grain of salt. newer info more reliable and needs to be found while considering.
there are various reasons as to why companies post over and over again - sm
For instance, I was working with one company that had tons of applicants. However, they were calling back people they fired in the past and offering them jobs. Other companies I have worked with just like to have applicants on file and if one in particular jumps out at them, they will call and test that applicant even though they may not have a "new" account per se.
And of course, there is the old standby reason - no one qualified for the position, so they are reposting it.
These are the companies I got from a post a week or so ago...SM
MDI Florida, Medical INK, AccuStat Carolinas, Proveras, Sten-Tel, Focus, Chase.
not all companies post jobs here -
why bother being so rude.
Ask about specific companies in a new post, please.

That post bashed 7 companies, and
went on to say the good companies never get mentioned. Well whose fault is that? I'm working for one of the 7 due to word of mouth. If you had posted about a better company, maybe I'd have applied there. But do you actually know what these better companies are? Instead of bashing companies, you should be praising the good ones. Now that would be helpful!
Otherwise it sounds like you're just telling fairy tales.
Wonder why these companies post jobs
with low line rates but requiring years of experience. Who out there is desperate enough to fall for this? Maybe they should try an overseas job board somewhere.
Post your resume on the job boards. Most companies
want 2 years of recent experience, but with your extensive experience I'm sure some companies would be willing to offer you a chance, but could depend on the disability. If the disability was due to mental health issues you might have problems more than if you had a physical disability.
companies that do not post line rate...
In some of these postings (I'm talking mostly about the big nationals here), the recruiters spend LOTS of time talking about what they have to offer but are noticeably silent about line rate. If a company has so much to offer, it should be proud of the line rate it is offering. It always seems like they are trying to rope me in in some way & then will spring the bad news on me once they have a captive audience, like a bunch of used car salesmen.
If I don't see a line rate next to pay/compensation I just substitute embarrassingly low & move on to the next listing.
I've had the thought that the listings should be divided into Big National and MTSO --- and within that, willing to show line rate and not willing to show line rate.
Anyone else?
That may be but if companies can't post ads without company names,
nm
Others will post that work for these companies, there are some great
people that post on this board, you just have to overlook a few. Unfortunately I do not work at any of these companies, otherwise I would be glad to give you any information needed. Good luck though!
Maybe because not ALL companies post there. He/She just asked a simple question!

I think the point was to POST names of good companies for all MTs to see,

What happened to my post with an inquiry for companies that have clinic work available in the
mornings (not in the afternoons or evenings)? I did not think there was anything inappropriate in my message and thought it was on the correct board. Thanks.
How can a message be confidential if it posted on a public message board? nm
sm small message or see message...geesh..nm

please don't put nm or call yourself nm if you have a message - nm means no message -sm
nm means no message. sm means see message. if you call yourself nm, then people might not click to read the rest of your post.
just trying to help.
ps. if the money is there, why does that particular person's balance say zero?
I can't give you the name of the message board, but it is not a free message board (HINT). There
Monitor, I hope this post is okay.
But that could be Leave a Message or Little Message! LOL

Congrats! :) SM = see message. NM (no message)
My post should say the post above not the post below, Sheryl's post to be specific. nm

TransTech and Medware, are these companies considered large, medium-sized or small companies? (sm)
TIA
It's a "fishing" post. Same post a few days ago with numerous errors
ROFL
Yikes.. That is only inline with companies like Focus and such. "Real" companies pay their MTs
decent rate. I make over 5 cpl editing. So, if I got that slap in the face, I'd be outta there.
You are not allowed to post their link on this site. Post
will be removed. It was up last night and post got removed.
Read Spherson's post below, who admits, in the post, they do pay it.
zzzzz
Peachy, your post is interesting, but my post now is irrelevent but
A few weeks ago I went to my clinic where they had recently implemented EHR or EMR, whichever you call it, and the doctor's back was to me the whole time he and I conversed because his nose was stuck in his laptop. To me, it felt a little more impersonal, but I understand he was doing what he had to do, but it seems like the bedside manner may go to the wayside if the doctors can't even look at you when they are asking you questions or you are speaking to him/her. I know this is relevant to your original post, but just an interesting fact that I had not anticipated. Anyone else experience this?
Do the research...most companies, and not just MT companies, do not pay for maternity leave...
we get time off but not paid...and I really don't even understand the point of you posting this...
This is why I NEVER post my cpl. I'll post the range of
what the company pays, but NEVER what I make. I know that I make more than probably 70% of the people there, because they know I produce a client ready report and that I can do anything they throw at me. We don't have levels, but I guess if we did I'd be at the highest level. Telling how much you make isn't so bad, but when people know what company you work for and then what you make that isn't a good combination. The ONLY people I have ever discussed what I make with, are my husband and my MTSO owner. Talking about your salary/pay is enough to get your fired in lots of companies.
Post edited -- DO NOT POST NAMES. (SM)

One post was another "run" type of post and the
the recruiter. Once you are in with the company, the recruiter has nothing to do with you or your job. I want specifics about problems with THE JOB, not the recruiter. Specifics such as no or late checks, line counts being messed up, no work, taking bennies away with no explanation. Things that matter, not the recruiter.
