Wendy, Tinkerbell's calling you! Fly away, Wendy! Fly away!

Sorry Wendy I meant to post another Wendy
Sorry.
WHAT A HYPOCRITE YOU ARE WENDY!
How nasty. I didn't start any name calling. You just did. You should practice what you preach. Now, Wendy, go to Wendy's and get a burger and Frosty and chill out.
Well said, Wendy - Bravo
Oh, I think Wendy fills in as
an acting manager when it's crazy. But Debbie would be the one for this situation. She and the techs will get you up and running just as soon as they humanly can. They really do need you. :o)
Why Wendy? She is only QA, right? I don't think she has the powers that you giving her.
Debbie or account manager would make more sense to contact -- not a QA person!!!!!!!
Wendy is the QA Manager and I think she is the one who approves all of the
account instructions anyway. I have always found her to be really helpful. I would go with her.
Wendy....Post a bit harsh
Maggie, your post was a bit harsh. Yes there are those who whine and complain, but a lot comes with experience to include whining and complaining. As well, you really do not know what financial situation an MT may be experiencing. While, I agree with most of what you state, I find that you lack compassion for those who may not have the experience and knowledge that you do. I cannot say enough about the mentors/teachers I have had along the way. I had only one bad experience over the past 16 years working at home as an MT.. I have found work that may not be a good fit for the company or for me, software that is not productive for MTs (which can be cumbersome, time consuming, and frustrating), companies selling to another company, companies going out of business, losing business, etc., etc. I have considered all an experience that has contributed to the work I do. As well, without a doubt, you can have the greatest work ethic, but if your work for someone who does not share the same work ethic, or value the fact that you are generating money for them as well as yourself, what is it truly worth? Be kind, be gentle to those that whine and complain and perhaps your shared experience will provide growth for another MT.
They are so busy! I would shoot Deb or Wendy an email

Thanks Wendy! You've helped alot! (nm)

When it's real busy and Deb can't take care of stuff, I think Wendy helps out (she is in offic

Maybe it would help if we knew exactly
how many people were quitting, if they could maybe post on here (or maybe a less public place might be better) when they find a new job and when they plan on leaving. Might make more of an impact that way. I'm going to have to leave, but I don't have a new job yet. And I agree with you about not giving notice. They didn't give us any notice.
See? You knew better, but still...
Do you brush off your typos in your work just because it is early morning?
Some people just do not do well under pressure like that (verbal quizzes) regardless of how much they know. Get off of your pedestal.
We knew what we were saying
Both of us knew what we were saying without the extra 000's. I just looked at my chart notes and at 9 cents per line which is what I pay my subs you lost about 15% and so probably get about 7.5 cents per line. The first document I checked was a lot of letters and consults and so there were a lot of blank lines in that one -- which I do get paid for believe it or not -- so that was not a good comparison --forgot about that. But I just looked at a document that had 3830 lines and 2790 words and so you can compare that. But again I charge gross lines. Less per line but they much prefer the less per line than the more per line but less lines. I have weird docs. Good luck again.
If we knew of any, we'd all be there!

I knew it
Thank you so much for sharing. That is what I mean, the old bait and switch game. They reel you in, have you quit your current job, and then treat you anyway you want to. Just like 75% of the companies these days. And yes, lying to someone over the phone and the computer is easier for people. All I want in a company is work, paychecks, integrity, and honesty. And you sure wont get it here at JLG!!
If they only knew...
the clients I mean. Maybe everyone's minds should think alike.
I agree, Melissa was once an upstanding person and manager, boy was I wrong! She would not answer her office phone or her cell phone yesterday afternoon when I called and I left her messages. I emailed her that I was going to be out last night due to illness and she forwarded my email to Kathy Clemmons and Colleen Neidert. What, now I can't use my sick time either! Just try me!
I wish I knew
what company this hiring manager worked for. I would not apply.
If you only knew!
nm
somehow I knew
Call me names if you want to....I really don't care. I stand my ground. Acusis is a great company with great people. I personally know MTs who have absolutely no trouble getting their Keystrokes in...perhaps you are spending too much time here when you should be transcribing? Just a thought.....
No it isn't, but seems to be more than you knew. I also know how to
search the archives.
If she knew, do you think she would ask?
wish I knew..sm
The website looks good-seems like all radiology work., but other than that, I know nothing; I haven't heard from them either. 
I wonder, too, if they even knew it was in use...
when filing a name, how would one know if w/o the copywrite?
wish I knew.. but
I received an email yesterday stating I did very well on the test and wanted to know when I would be able to speak to them. I told them today or tomorrow and gave time. So far, no response email, no call.
Uh oh. I knew something bad had to SM
be coming, since they didn't have any bad news at the last town meeting call. Too many changes to annotate? That's their way of having us go through the whole thing and hopefully miss even more things they are taking away from us, OR more things we are going to have to do and not be paid for.
the OP knew what she was doing and sm
I am sure she knew the consequences. She will be fine and she will get another job.
I just hope its not in an office with folks like you. I have been there, done that and no amount of money is worth that.
When it comes my time to die, I sure won't be saying GEE I wish I had worked more hours! I will be glad I did what I could do for and with my family and the OP will do the same.
Well, 2 of us knew it
But don't feel too badly. Some of us manage to be aware of cultural phenomena and the world outside of our own. I don't think any of us expect that from you.
I knew it, I knew it
Wow, I thought Iw as the only one who noticed something weird about this companyh. They pulled the same garbage on me, the 9:00 interview, on Yahoo IM? What a crock. What exactly are they trying to pull? I also got a computer virus that I think was due to them.
Although this is something I knew, it SM
bears repeating. MTStars is not giving out that information. The poster in question made it clear that she gave information in HER OWN POSTS that allowed identification.
There are also accusations against 4 Jane Does in the suit, which shows everyone that nobody from MTStars is giving out ISP or identification information.
Thanks. I knew there was something but

I never knew they had glitches.
I'm in the dark about that.
if you knew what they paid, why did you take the job?
x
knew that was coming!
Three things are for sure - death, taxes, and that you'll start your vendetta the minute anyone mentions OSI!
I knew it was too easy sm
Probably too good to be true but I will try to straddle both jobs. My current one is a stinko place, lotsa junk dictation, no $$, so T seemed like a big step in the right direction. However, I got it too easy. My experience with both MT and nonMT jobs is if you get them too easily, there's usually a reason why -- nobody else wants it.
I knew 4 companies in NJ this way. It was not a

I don't know firsthand but knew
someone that worked for them once who was happy with them
I knew someone would disagree with me, but
for the account I am on, I am definitely getting the short end of the stick being paid by the report. Unfortunately, that is something you don't know until you actually work on the account. At least by the line, you are paid for what you do exactly.
Money? They pay for this? Who knew?!!!
Dear Foothills:
You are too funny!
None of us make money in transcription anymore. Veteran's in the business can remember when we used to make a living wage, but anymore?
No, we'd all be better off as coal miners because it would pay better. I'm serious. These companies are in the penny pinching business, stealing spaces, headers, footers, courtesy copies, and creative accounting so what you type is not what you get paid anymore, and they have it down to a science.
I'm guessing, but I'd venture to say in the coal mine they wouldn't tell me working for free is part of my job. What do you think?
hahahahahaa.
I'm working on an attitude today with dictators.
I wish they would all yawn, fart, sneeze, eat, cough, talk to other people, answer the telephone, play with the calculator and shuffle papers while dictating as I am sitting here trying to make a living.
Then, if they can gargle like this fellow I have right now where I can struggle to understand, I would just be thrilled! (Sarcasm).
Rudest animal on the planet?
Dictators.
Some days it would be easier for a gnat to give birth to an elephant than to transcribe a horrible dictator. Ever have a day like that?
There in is the reason we make little to no money.
AMEN.
Last I knew it was Starmark sm
and they were awful.
I knew it would come out sooner or later.
If people only knew what goes on (sm)
the deception is something else with this company, I am so happy to be rid of all that nonsense. Sorry that happened to you.
New Jersey last I knew. nm

and thank you! I knew there was something forgotten!
nm
If we knew the answer to that one...
we'd all be working there! We all would love to know where to go to make 13 cpl to start, where we are not on a time clock, were we have little to no ESLs, and where we are treated with the utmost respect, paid on time every time, and don't have to worry about being switched to that blasted ASR. Boy, if there's anyone out there who knows of such a utopian place for a MT, please let me know! I'll be quitting tomorrow!!
if you knew the company, that is.

Can you say overhire...I knew you could.
Don't bother unless you like A LOT of flexibility in your day. Have a backup job so when there is no work I can work elsewhere. There is more work at night so if you like working evenings and nights this could work out for you.
I knew something like this would happen...
I got this email from super today saying that a line is not a ine due to production gains with Speech Recognition. So they are being weighted.
A transcribed line equals a line but a speech line is 0.666666667. We will receive corrective actions for not reaching the goals.
I believe this means that I now have to do twice as much work to make speech equal 1 line and to keep tabs on it I have to go to a different window.
Time to find a new job?
well I would if I knew who the recruiter was...
But all I got was an automated email message saying congratulations, you passed the first portion of the application process and inviting me to go on to the second portion, which was the test.
Would like to apply to MDI if I knew where to do that. NM
xx
I wish I knew where you worked.
I realize you can't say on here. I really, really hope the work picks up soon for my job. Can get a bit overwhelming at times (not having work).
Does your company advertise for employees on the Looking For Jobs board? Hope so.
