In Reply to: run as fast as you can. decent line counts are had by double dippng supervisors. - junk for newbies.
They pay a diffential for more difficult accounts. I haven't seen any junk yet. Double dipping? What do you mean by that? What's your definition of double-dipping?

No sour grapes here...
Not to be disrespectful, but you must have worked for them when it was ran w/o Transcend...because it changed, believe me. Since I have been there, they have gone through at least four acct. mgrs. for their radiology. And I have sent, on several accounts, documented proof, with times of dictation, release, assignment, etc., and nothing was ever done. And as far as my performance, the only reason I am still with MDI is because of my pay, which reflects my experience and the fact that I have yet to have a report rejected or sent back for an error...I assure you there is no mud slinging here. I have documentation to back up every accusation made. I do not work on the account Rhonda is currently working because I refuse to work w/ her, not because I was booted, as you put. As far as the misery goes, it DID move on--to other accounts where I did not have to work w/ RJ.
No sour grapes here???
Having been the administrator of one of the largest radiology transcription programs on the east coast, I am having trouble understanding why you and your husband, with such a demonstrative level of professionalism and success in your area of expertise would be so put off by someone simply expressing their happiness with their work. Doesn't seem to make sense in my experience. Happy,successful people normally seek out and support happy and successful people. Toxic people, on the other hand, tend to seek out and support toxic people. Good luck in that life long endeavor.
Re: Sour grapes
That was a very interesting post by Mr. Rooster. I couldn't agree more.
Stop being a cry baby and grow up. Your anonymous post was seriously undermining and nasty and your complaints have fallen on deaf ears for a reason. My guess is they are inaccurate. You mention you have documentation, etc. It is obvious, your complaints are not credible.
Sour grapes, about having a better job?
Maybe I do not get your drift, but we all came out from under a thumb held so tightly we could hardly breathe to go on to better jobs, no constant harassment, no one breathing down our necks, no changing of the rules day after day, no picky-picky about the work, tell me exactly where the sour grapes come in because I have no clue as to what you are talking about...
Could this be sour grapes? h-m-m-m

Perhaps it's sour grapes?
I am a TL at Transcend and know a little history about some of the MLS listed in this thread. Transcend is a great company run by people who want to do right by their employees and their customers. Applicants, please consider that these MLS making posts had a role in their demise with the company. There are always two sides to every story.
Sour grapes?
Did you have a high percentage of reports going to QA? If not, then you can intelligently guess what the lines would be. This is one of the most fair-minded and supportive services I've ever worked for, and I've worked for many of the services out there.
I smell sour grapes. This is a lie. They do not oursource
I've been an at-home MT since 1990, and was in-house for 12 years before that.
Amphion is the BEST, MOST PROFESSIONAL, and FAIR company I've ever worked for.
Whoever is trying to make them look bad on here is lying, and I suspect it's one of the people from "another company" that DOES SUCK trying to bring down an honest reputable company because they're jealous that they don't have the character and professionalism that Amphion has.
no sour grapes here. I have a new job and love it. Just telling the truth is all.Just because some
Why dont you just lay off. Sour grapes because you weren't hired?
Sounds like it to me.
People make a lot of stuff up (sour grapes?)

I have been there 4 years and there are many happy MTs. Call the office, not the sour grapes on thi

No sour grapes. They DO outsource to Trinidad. Openly on the net. Research it and you will see.

Don't understand your logic....Sour grapes = unprofessionalism, incompetence, outsourcing
A true professional MT will refuse to work under such conditions.
Don't let this sour you on this profession. sm
There are great companies out there and horrible ones. What was horrible for you might be a good fit for someone else.
Grapes of Wrath
Read Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck. I realize today I just became a dustbowl evicted - farm worker. Lets all pick peaches while there are peaches to pick, then move on down the road in our jalopies.
Grapes of Wrath, 1940.....sm
Grapes of Wrath' 1940
Excerpt
'.....The family settles in a shack and picks peaches for five cents a box, earning barely enough to feed the family......'
has anyone else get late paychecks from Meridian or is the negative just from one sour pus
I really would like to know before accepting a position with them.
I would like someone besides the poster from below to answer please.
sure sounds swell. Sounds like 2350 ln/day @ 4 cents/ln=$90./day
in order to figure how many line needs to be produced to make $500 per pay period. ie, how many lines an hour needed per 8 hour day --at your rate.
So say $450 a week would be $90 a day.
For example, if making 4 cents a line,need 2,250 lines a day, 281 an HOUR (to listen through and edit) to make this great wage of $90. a day FOR ALL THIS SAME SKILL, TO KEEP UPDATED WITH CHANGING MEDICAL COMMUNITY. nope Better at Jack-in-Box Pass it up.
Sounds like it and it sounds like you must tell them when they will be and no change them. Wonder
what you do when there is no work. Well, there will be a lot of problems with this whole plan if they dont get things straightened out with this no work situation.
Sounds like I'm the same age as you!

Sounds like she was trying to -sm
make you quit - probably because they overhired and have too many people. She probably thought she could bully you out the door and have one less person to have to deal with. I wonder if she treats others like that too.
I bet so. Sure sounds like them!!

SM - Sounds like you...
must know this owner pretty well to be bashing him this way. How is it you have come to such an opinion? Did you work in an office with him? I would be very anxious to hear more of your scholarly declarations such as the answer to ending world hunger and obtaining world peace? Please, tell us more oh "wise" one....
exactly what I was trying to say! It sounds like they sm
are on the right track! Good luck to them.
That sounds exactly like OSi.

There is always someone telling everyone what excellent accounts they have, perfect sound, TONS of work....hmmmm....well, I guess it's nice that SOMEBODY is going to be able to pay the rent cause it sure ain't me.
Sounds about right, maybe even a little low. nm

Sounds low to me (sm)
 I made $3.00 page several years ago. With wages lowering each and every day for the MTs, maybe someone else would like to share their thoughts. Good luck!
It sounds like they are not
very technical-savvy if they need MTs to come in for training! I'd be looking elsewhere.
They can only say no, but it sounds like they can't...
...afford to lose you. YOU are in the catbird seat. Ask for the raise. Really. Do it, and best of luck.
Sounds like BTS in MA. sm
They will take 6 weeks to send you a paycheck for 2 weeks pay, trim 30% off your line counts to supposedly cover headers/footers, and stiff you for your last check if you leave. Leave while you are ahead if it is them.
wow. Sounds like you been there, done that. Thanks for

the company I work for now meets those criteria. Email me if you'd like.
This sounds exactly like the what the
well trained office staff is supposed to say to negativity about the company. I worked for TC for awhile and learned the ins and outs. If you don't mind being overworked, underpaid, all the cherrypicking going on and don't question anything then this is a great company to work for. Not to mention if you are on the CEOs good side and work in the office you get paid trips to Disneyland for your whole family, and can give the MTs as much grief as you want and nothing is said. But if you do mind all this stuff, then as the first poster said run as fast as you can.

husband has through work only the deductible is 1000.00 for in network, 2000.00 out of network. No payout until deductible is met,except for office visits. Unfortunately, only one of my doctors is in his network. None of my specialists are. And, the PPO network is very restricted. But we do have prescriptions. It used to be John Deere Healthcare. Now it is United Healthcare.
It sounds rather -

Thank you...that sounds better!
I could definitely live with that! I'm glad I asked more questions. Is Carlotta nice to talk to? That's who I would be speaking with and she seems nice. Do you get samples or are able to see old reports for the ESLs or any difficult dictator? That helps a lot, too. Thank you!
sounds like maybe........
 the police should get involved in this case. Too bad I do not know her, or I would definitely think about getting her and that other lady SOME jail time! Would serve them right, and then throw away the key!
Sounds like one to me

Sounds like
the same company I tried before this one, trained 1 days, worked 2 days, both with no work and quit.
It sounds like
somebody already figured the lines to be subtracted at 133 . . . is that gross lines from the original counting method? If so, then you would need to figure it based on 65-char so as not to cheat yourself. It could be quite a difference, especially when considering the weekly or monthly amount.
Also, if it were me I would tell them that my 65-character count line rate is higher than my gross lines rate (by at least 2 cpl), and that that is standard practice, which it is.
