In Reply to: Sure... Why do I get the feeling - sm

and self indulgent to be management. Also really hate workplace politics. Been there long ago in another industry, done it, moved on. Isolated in the boonies now and loving the no-stress/no responsibility work we do. Haven't traded a word with my account manager (what's that title, anyway?) in months. Intend to keep on as long as allowed.

Lazy?? When you have 100's of people to reply to....that isn't lazy
Apparently you've never had your own MT company. There is just sometimes no other option but to use generic replies due to the overwhelming responses to ads run. I wish people who post at this board would put themselves in other people's shoes and quit being so quick to judge. You have no idea what the person running that company might have on her plate. And to the lady who started the post...give the people a break. You didn't get the job. Move on.

Also, please don ot change you thoughts 10 diffrent ways and then say to me forget it I will come back to this later and expect me to be okay with that.  And one other thing - SPIT OUT THE GUM
Smile.
:)
Of course you stick it out with a smile. Really. That's what I would do. sm
Remember, she probably won't last long and then you one day may have her job. Don't let one person out of other really good ones spoil your new position. If it continues longer than a month or so, go above her head and speak your concerns. She's probably just testing you. You know if you are doing a good job or not, and if you KNOW you are doing a good job, then just take her comments with a grain of salt and continue working. Don't make a huge deal out of QA people who are rude. I swear, if I did that, I would have had over 50 jobs by now! Each and every single company I've worked for (3) have had at least one Grinch of a QA person and at first I would get all upset and then I grew up and realized that they are just grinches and the kind of people who probably really, really dislike themselves, so how can they like anyone else????


Smile People!
What's with all the negativity on this board today?  Everyone needs to take a breath.  I've never seen such hostility on here before. Smile...it really isn't that bad. 
nope, not me, NOPE Worked to hard and long to sm
know what I know, my expertise is worth more and constant updating . Keep looking on the job boards. Email and ask if VR, pay for space and lowest to highest line rate for the POSITION (generic question) not I have 20 years exp. etc
I wasn't trying to be a smarta$$, that is why I put the smile at the end..
Sorry if you took it that way :)
Smile or not, your post was still incorrect
nm
Not too lazy?
Okay, so he/she was not TOO LAZY or TOO BUSY to come back 6 weeks later and take the time to send that rude rejection notice that was the subject of my original post.  I stand corrected.
lazy has a lot to do with it

cut out for this job.  Those are the ones who usually have all of the complaints.


No, this GP original post here is not the norm; at least not in my circle.  Sorry you all have such a time with these MTSOs. 


Hey I have an idea!  Why don't all you whiners start one up yourselves! 


hmmmmm. was that before she got lazy?
xxxxxxxxxx
I'm not too lazy to research this...
The only esoteric element about your postings is how you manage to transcribe with all of these conspiracy theories running rampant through your brain.

What a delightful co-worker you must be.

*YAWN*

A few corrections? Must be short reports. You are lucky! Thanks for the smile/laugh! nm

I wish I was a fat, lazy, cherry-pickin'
MT who could work when I wanted, do the exact opposite as my company says to do and still keep my job! I am so sick of working with MTs like this. I work my hind of to get my report count for the day, usually having to jump between 4 accounts to get the minimum! Then I work with this girl who gets away with murder and the company does nothing about it! Why are the worst MTs the ones who get all the glory and get to keep their jobs to boot? I'm sick of it. This field is such a joke!
I think the employers are just lazy, and don't want to do the taxes. nm

This is totally off topic, but your post made me smile with the reference to Wang sm

word processors.  I remember when we got them at the hospital, I was all happy while some of the older ladies were balking at it, but the thing that sticks in my mind was a comedian at the time who did some kind of joke about, Who let some company call themselves Wang? 


Anyway, it was funny at the time and this brought back a memory . I'm sorry for your situation.  I am 50 too, and although I do not live in a rural area, in fact just recently moved to the Denver area, I feel rather trapped.  I have done this since I was a junior in high school, and I really do not have any other marketable job skills.  When I see posts about wages being cut and work drying up, I panic inside and wonder what the future will hold for me.  Even if I had the money to go back to school, by the time I would graduate, I'd be an old lady anyway and probably not the best candidate for hire. 


Good luck to you. 


lazy and cowardly - she gets her lap dog BB to do her dirty work for her
so she doesn't have to deal with it.
She is meaning you will see lazy MTs while doing QA that no longer care

OSI managers are too lazy to keep their own accounts in turn around time
but if my a## were on the line my accounts would stay in Turn Around Time one way or another. Delegating work doesn't mean letting your turn around time go, patients are the ones who suffer the most.
...it can be done! I do this only if I have the wrong foot pedal hooked up & I feel lazy. nm

Honestly, people some people are lazy...
plain and simple, sad but true.
Nope
Not yet!
Nope...
I'm already in the process of getting in with another company while I can still make the change because I WANT to and not because I HAVE to. 
Nope,they have their own although sm
if you speak to tech support,they may be able to import your shortcuts into their program.
NOPE, OSi

Nope. nm

No, it doesn't make it 10.75 cpl. I thought that it might at first, too. Look at it this way: 15.3% (the actual %) has to be paid out of what you make. As an SE, half of that is paid by your employer, the other half by you. As an IC, you pay the whole. So you're actually only paying 0.0765% more.

What I did to figure out which rate was best. SE versus IC, was to take the base rate and subtract the 0.0765% from it. At 10 cpl, that gives you an SE-comparable rate at 0.09235 cpl.
Nope. Nope and not any more
.
Nope, not that one! (sm)
The BestPRN I know of does primarily psych and has a system that prevents cherry-picking. The owners are the best I have ever worked for.

There are about twenty zillion services named PRN transcription.

Nope, she's gone.

Nope I don't.

They have their OWN accounts now using several types of software.  I only use one type of software they have, but they have 3 accounts with it.  I work on two of them.


Nope,
That is how she tests
Nope, I think it is after 2

Nope. :) nm

Nope, never have
Whenever I have applied for a job in the past, I have always submitted it directly to the employer. I want to avoid being contacted by these types of strange places.
Nope. nm

Nope.
I don't know a thing, except that I wouldn't want to send my personal information to an unidentified company with a rapper's personal email address as contact information. This is the business world. They can be more professional in their communication efforts.
Nope, not MQ or OSi, but...
but thanks guys for the tip - I know who to stay away from!   I have played MQ before, never ever again - don't know about OSi, but I think I'll steer clear.  This is more of a wish list and a compilation of all the negative things I have experienced over the years and just don't want to deal with again.  I realize no place will be perfect.  I'm hoping some MTSOs will see the post and pay attention - but if they are already operating this they most likely won't change their ways, nor are they likely to care - just a vent.
Nope! nm

Nope... I am
Wendy too! Hi Wendy!

nope.. but maybe I should be! :)

Nope
Not even a message or card. Maybe they don't know about Christmas in India. :-)
Nope. I did not see it, but then again...
I do not always get the emails because of the problems with the server. I know they are looking for a new server. But, never got that email.
Nope!
I have only heard that there is no communication and no QA feedback. I know a person from India who worked under an American's information for 2 months submitting horrible reports to QA and she never received an ounce of feedback and was never contacted a single time about the horrible quality.
nope.
not anymore - new board! lololol KIDDING!
