Not webber, but
I have worked on several platforms and they've all been faster, honestly. They were also internet programs for large and small companies. I am a Transcriptionist and not a computer/internet geek or IT person so I do not know the answer to the problem, but I do know that it is the slowest I have ever worked on. Otherwise, the company is WONDERFUL! But, that's not what pays the bills. (oh, and the PTO could be better, but with the affordable insurance, etc, it's pretty decent. A single person would be in big trouble if they had to have an operation or get sick and have to miss work for a while to recover. But, unfortunately, that is what medical transcription is coming to. I made twice the money I'm making now many years ago. Kinda scary.

I agree - Not really a company to trash because in comparison they are the best, but the platform needs work!

To Webber
Do they still require working one day each weekend? Any Monday through Friday? Any first shift?

Why do you stay there? (I am not a Webber BTW) SM
I don't understand MTs who stay with companies they obviously dislike. Move on.

Thanks for telling the truth and for explaining

in my post above.

Yes, I knew going in that I wouldn't get any PTO for a year. I made the mistake of thinking in terms of "vacation," never thinking I'd need it as backup for all the system problems.

And, yes, I knew the problem wasn't the sound card, and I'm very glad that others are backing me up on this, acknowledging that it's a company-wide problem with the platform. It's not always all the MT's fault.

I was only trying to tell the poster to think long and hard. Accepting a new job is a big decision to make.

Didn't you get the email explaining this
situation? To me the email was made it very clear about the error...I realize that change can make a person panic but I think TT MTs are safe, the company followed up very quickly on the matter and seem to have it under control. Relax

Webber, sounds like Webmedx
might be becoming the heir to the throne of MQ in terms of how it treats people.

Thx for explaining, otherwise it didnt make sense
,,,

Thanks for explaining. I tend to be a bit technically challenged in that area. sm
If I ever get a life, I might give it a try. Somehow a picture of an old woman hunched over her keyboard, listing hobbies as eat, sleep,and work, probably is not newsworthy .. LOL.
