The MTSO's bank that the checks are drawn on. I had the

I called the bank the check was drawn on and they said no upgrades at all to direct deposit and they
said that I was probably handed a line. This latest stretch of the truth coupled with many others has me sending out resumes for a new change in 2006. To me the writing is on the wall. Though I really doubt they care if any of us leave. I was on the same account for several years, suddenly switched without a reason which greatly impacted my pay, but yet find out from office staff my original account has plenty of work, so what gives?
Why milk?
What is with all the people who drink so much milk? If you are that broke, buy some oatmeal for pete's sake! It lasts and all you do is add water. Oh, the drama with the milk!
Milk - how heartless
I can relate. I returned a purchase (a dress) in order to get groceries instead because was hit by unexpected medical expenses ($15 copay and $40 copay for meds for my son).
Milk is for calves any way...sm
I quit nursing my mother many moons ago. Sure don't need to nurse a cow.
Happy cows give more milk -
It would really take VERY little effort on their part and they would probably get back so much in return if they would only treat people with kindness, fairness, and decency. Does it take so much to answer an e-mail that does not pertain to account specifics or something else not covered elsewhere? I am not talking about carrying on a conversation with someone because I want to work and be left alone myself, but sometimes I have a question that needs an answer. I am still waiting for a response on something I sent over a month ago! That is not the first e-mail to go unanswered...I personally would never claim to be under so much stress that I used that as an excuse to ignore the very people who make DSG (and any company for that matter) what it is or be rude to them.
I just bought a 1/2 gallon of milk with a gift SM
card at the drug store. A gift card I got for transferring my prescription there last week (so I could get the gift card). I don't even have $1.89 cash to pay for milk.
You have to be suspect of this one!
Nothing in the whole thing is unusually great -- the only time we sit up and do something like is when there is a big plus out of the ordinary - seems like we could find this anywhere, lol
I suspect you are the same poster from sm
yesterday with all the anger and craziness in all your posts. What you just posted is SUPER passive-aggressive. You really do need to get professional help--maybe not with that poster's ex-husband, but with someone.
Typical of mentally ill - they focus on something completely irrelevant when someone asks them to get help.
I suspect you are correct about
not all VR platforms are created equal just like all platforms for straight MT are not created equal. My guess would be that either the platform you mention as being the best will take over the marketplace or the others will manage to get their platforms up to par. Once that happens though I could venture a guess as to what will come next.
What is a keylogger? And how what makes you suspect this?
xx
Makes me suspect an MTSO who wants to
know who may be job hunting, so strongly recommend a disposable e-mail address for reply.
What is KS? If it is who i suspect..let me know and I"ll infomr you.

I you work for my company, which I suspect you might, this seems
account and I am talking for a couple of years, adn did not need to ask for more work. Then slowly the work started being less and less for that particular account, and in fact, 2 of the work types were completely taken out of the pool - OPs that I did and never, never ran low on for one. I have had 7 new ones since October, now it seems to be settling into just 2 or 3 per week. If you want to work, there is no limit to how many you should do. It is confusing though and mistakes are being made I am sure of it, me included.
I suspect you're NOT out of the loop
I suspect you just hit a suspected nail right on the head.

I suspect you hit the nail on the head
Years ago when I entered the field (more than I care to admit), the MT was a commodity. Training programs were few and far between (my hospital was training their own since they couldn't find bodies). Now, not only do we have the Indians and other foreign entities and VR, but we also have MT schools on the back of matchbooks, late night TV commercials, and spam mail in our inboxes. Suddenly, millions of people are doing it which, as we all know, not only limits the work each person can get but also drives down the wage, as those of us who have been here a while can verily attest.
I don't think the MTSOs even staff in particular for TAT. I think that's just a bonus. It's much cheaper to pay two or three people part-time hours than have to pay one person benefits.
I suspect the owner of the MTSO felt
it was a good time to retire. If you Google Transcription Stat and Sausalito (where the MTSO at the root of the whole affair was located--interesting because the office used to be in downtown San Francisco and Sausalito was where Kim lived. Wonder if she was running it out of her home at the time the whole thing went down...), all you get is references to the UCSF affair so I suspect she is no longer in business. Didn't one article say her UCSF work totally dried up after that? That was her main account, as far as I know.
I'm beginning to suspect it's the Xanax Express n/m

with 16 years I would suspect you to know the diff. between wave and waive?!?!?

I would suspect that with the name Global in the title, its probably India...dunno though.

I do not see you on any horse either
You have a right to your opinion and I respect you for it. You said what others want to say, but do not want to be criticized for saying.
If you'll read through past posts you'll find lots of
recent info. Why do you need menitoring if you already work as an MT. Unless you do clinic work most companies will require you to work at least one weekend day, at least initially.
This was from the horse's mouth.
Perhaps you need to get a new horse.
Remember the packet changes are effective January 1, not today.
It's unfortunate you aren't being paid for downtime. I was paid several times for 40 hours, when my hours fell short.
I see the packet as MQs move to finally consolidate EVERYONE onto the same plan of management so this ridiculous "but my office says and it's true" stuff can stop.
The horse's mouth would be
The Administrator can only go by what she is told by the company directly or an MT has to produce proof that they offshore before she prevents them from posting on this board.
High horse
You make some good points but the vast majority of MTs don't apply to your condescending e-mail. Glad I don't work for you. You find some poor employees in any industry, and the few bad apples in the MT business are not the reason work is being sent overseas where the work is even worse quality (but done with a smile - I give you that). Whatever - I will just be glad when this post has moved on to another page.
Come down off our high horse
I used to have excellent credit too until my husband lost his job and I had surgeries 9 months apart. There are circumstances that do cause people to lose their credit.
Maybe some bad luck should hit you and then you would understand how some of us feel!!!!
Come Down Off Your High Horse!!!
It sounds like you have spent too much time at the beach listening to the waves and in the sun as your brain is fried. Who do you think you are talking to anyone this way???
I have a good job, make good money and I always have work but your attitude is just right down horrible.
Since you don't spend much time here, I think you should just probably stay totally away if this is the kind of attitude you bring when you do decide to be here.
I don't see you on a high horse...sm
I agree with you 200%
Get off your high horse already
I have researched anything and everything I have ever delved into thoroughly before jumping on it. If a newbie jumps right in without researching first, it is their own dang fault. Geez.
You are on a very high horse
Might want to come on down and sit in the horse stuff with the looser MTs....waaaah
from the horse's mouth
Per company e-mail from Transcend CEO, the merge is with Transcription Relief Services.
No? The horse is at the glue
nm
Well, come down off that high horse
you seem to be on. Where do you get that Now Let Me Tell You Something. First of all, who are you and what does it matter. You talk like that to your kids, not to another grown person. Sissy, go back to mothering now, ok? More experienced MTs know the 3 day leave for a funeral, newbies seem not to know.
Yup - horse i out of the barn, that's for sure.
,
that horse fromthe packet and
the Qnet rules. tellher to go lookit up.
Wow 8 years and already on a high horse? you
would be a good QA person one day, NOT
Can lead a horse to water....D&L
I can understand you're still working for D&L because I too have never been one to jump on the bandwagon. It is my own mistake not to have abandoned ship on D&L back when all the signs were saying GET OUT NOW!!! I remained loyal to this company and worked my butt off for them.
In the end, what did it get me and everyone who stuck around doing what they could? Nothing except a string of financial crises, ignored calls & emails, empty promises as they dumped their financial dilemma on me and the rest of us.
D&L still owes me for work done from June-July. They haven't yet paid their original set of MTs that worked the hospital account. They lied to us for weeks and suddenly owned up to the situation with the Oh Well email filled with promises of making good on pay.
....We are told that the payment will be honored when represented our bank has delayed availability of those funds until Thursday 07/19/07. Once those funds are made available we will immediately issue checks to anyone effected by this situation. We apologize for this unfortunate event and will expedite payments once funds are made available......
Here it is September 9th already, still no check.
Sorry to say, but what makes you think they have any intention of making good on YOUR check(s)?
Seriously, it's in your own best interest to find other employment quickly and not waste another minute working for free or you too shall suffer a financial crisis that will take months to recover from.
Good luck in your job hunt.
To quote Donna directly......It is what it is
the horse has already left the barn nm

Watch that first step off the horse. NM

Oh, that's horse puckey. The reason they
offshore is because they want a higher profit margin. You think MTs should now work for minimum wage so the MTSOs can keep their earnings high? No way. The quality in India is AWFUL. You get what you pay for, and hopefully the resulting lawsuits by the patients will make it less cost-effective.
Beating a dead horse
Not sure about NOW but they used to hire a lot of people M-F who had to work only 1 weekend per month. I chose to work on a weekend day because of more money but a lot of people that were hired still work M-F and rotate weekends.
Dead horse is right, Sharon
These people do not want to listen to reason, do not want reassurance, and quite frankly do want to have to expend the brain cells to LEARN. They'd rather trash the company, VR programs and MTs like us who are successful at it and make good money at it. No point wasting your time or effort.
I say let 'em go...Sounds like TTs better off without them and I'd hate to think I have co-workers of this mentality.
Have a nice dinner out...One of the beauties of working for TT (even on VR, lol) is the extra money for the nicer things in life. At least when all of these posters bail we'll have even more work and even more money to enjoy the finer things in life!
Oh, horse poop, anyone can retire
I can retire, no big deal about that. Stated the facts, she is retired and she has come here to gab. I don't think she is particularly lucky. I am the age of retirement but choose to work because I want to make double the money. Don'cha think that is smart? I also don't have to worry about working, just do because I want to.
Beating a dead horse here, but
If these companies came on here and started naming employees that were bad news, you all would be in a hurry to find a way to make it someone else's fault.
There must be grounds for the poster to be sued by TT or else a lawyer wouldn't have taken the case. Who wins? No one.
The poster allegedly being sued came on here to gather up a herd of followers and then closed her thread. I don't see her posting any longer, do YOU? But, you are here to defend her? For what reason? It makes no sense to me.
Whoever this person being sued in my OPINION has screwed up this board for the last few days. It is nothing but fighting and bashing! That poster is gone with the wind now, probably never to return again and we're all at each other's throats.
Can we please quit beating this horse; it's dead; deader than a doornail!
Funny, been on my *high horse* for 20 years!

Just a matter of time before she will be off her high horse
Medware used to be a stable company. I wonder if their advertisement will now say Used to be AAMT company of the year - or Please sign up with us- we will help you be eligible for welfare - or better yet Happy MT week, your job has been phased out.
Gorgeous horse country right outside of Philly!
Google areas near New Bolton Medical Center in Pennsy. If country is up your alley, there are lots of great towns. If you like cities, then Philly is for you! Go EAGLES!! 
Get off your high horse and go work your management job...sm
This is a board for opinions, isn't it? So don't tell me to get my facts straight.
That is the biggest bunch of horse puckey ever.
I DESPISE Escription, I hate it, hate it, hate it and hate VR no matter what the so-called better platform. It does NOT take me half the time to do a report. If I can type 250 lph I can edit 350 lph AT BEST. I DESPISE Escription and all that is associated with it. Oh and yes, I WOULD LOVE to go back to the old way. And there are plenty of MTs, we all know that--it's just that the work is going elsewhere to uncivilized third-world countries and the patients have no clue their records are being so jeopardized.
