That poster thinks this has nothing to do with spirituality or domestic violence.

See below. She says we are in left field suggesting that. So, the words suck it up has nothing to do with how we treat other people or how we choose to be treated, that is just take the beating? Okay, well if I am in left field, and she has typed me in a psych note, I suppose I should suck that up too. Answering here because I wanted her to read above once again so that this poster can put 2 and 2 together, instead of calling me a nut. Thanks for listening.

How did domestic violence and religion get into this?
You suggest counseling? My sympathy goes out to you.I have done psychiatric reports in the past and from what I am reading here, sounds familiar. You have gone off in left field. The statements you have made above were never in this mix. This sounds so familiar from years past.
Battering is a choice. (Domestic violence applies to many things)
May I suggest counseling? I mean that in a kind way. BTW: If you don't understand let me explain: Battering is a choice is same as Sucking up is a choice. Wondering if you were married if you sucked up to him as well... and don't get me started on misquoting Scripture either. God never forces us to suck anything up. We are supposed to be like Him. He will, however, let us choose to suck it up or choose to be battered, and that is where we end up in Hades.
So, by your philosophy, suck it up, accept the battering and you will always have a job. Okay, so you will always be under domestic violence. Your choice. Not mine. Wish you all the luck in the world with your sucking it up choose the battering. Maybe someday as I said a counseling session might help. Or not. Your choice.

ALL DOMESTIC
I work as an MT for Webmedx and know that the company is all domestic, so you may want to check them out if you are looking to make a move to another company. They are great to work for!!
Exactly the same as what happens with domestic abuse -

Heartland - Domestic Team No More?
Heartland's only recruiter announced last week that she would be leaving. I wonder if she knows what the outcome of Heartland being sold is? No domestic team?
I know I will miss her greatly!
3rd largest DOMESTIC employer
Besides MedQ and Spheris, who else has 750 domestic MTs? And to answer your question before you ask; yes, CyMed really does have that many. I work in the corporate office and they've been stuffing envelopes for employee Christmas cards and gifts all week. (Finally getting them out the door on Monday.)
post specifically says Domestic MTs
nm
they have on their site Internationally and Domestic trained MT-s. Don't work for them! Outsour
.
Me thinks you think too much!!
 Thus, the problemo!
SHE thinks she's the only one who knows how!
 who is that unqualified for the position she's in. You're either SD herself or someone she put up to posting this nonsense because she's definitely an approval seeker and would be horrified to know that she wasn't fooling anyone. Keep shoveling. I find it amusing.
Better thinks about it
They don't pay for spaces. They fine you for mistakes. Everyone is mood at that company. Horrible experience working for them. Better think about it.
Nothing yet. Am I the only one who thinks this is odd???
When companies switch insurance plans, they do it months in advance and not keep working on it long after their insurance is canceled.
The OP thinks she is SM
being specifically singled out for bad treatment because she **dares** to question them. Completely ridiculous. I know all of us would like to believe the world revolves around us, but the reality is that an MT that questions my corrections or feedback is barely noticed by me.
Just like MTs, our working conditions have deteriorated over the years and the majority of us have the same priorities as MTs, getting the work out the door and keeping the office off our back.
Me thinks somebody is a bit paranoid.
I've worked other places and I've never done as well as I have at TT. I doubt they pull the bull you state.
For me, I planning on being there until I retire. I think you should back up your info with FACTS, not RUMOR.
Me thinks it isn't the platform...
that causes the problem, but the company you work for that controls how the lilnes are counted!
She thinks she's texting

Me thinks you are not really 'admin.'

What a minute, one thinks it is fast
and another thinks it is slow and cumbersome. I'm confused now. Can you give details please.
What an idiot this person is. Thinks he has all
the answers and really doesn't have any of them. He doesn't know who I am and cannot comment on anything about what transpired when I worked there.
I have absolutely no reason to lie about my experience with SS. It was a horrible place for lots of reasons and I'll tell anyone who asks about the company my experience to spare them the headache. IF my QA scores were down (how could they be I was in QA), if I didn't stick to my schedule, etc. and got fired I would admit that also, but none of it happened - I QUIT and H did beg me to stay. I know it is hard with all his sliminess to believe he could beg, but beg he did.
I hear you. I pay NO attention to how good someone thinks they are.
With all that wonderful experience, if you cannot pull the testing, you have just proven you don't know your own skill level.
I got a call the day I sent my resume and answers in. Maybe you the OP is not all that she thinks s
the positions that had open were not a good match for what she has done. I read her post a few times. It says that her skills do match the opening that she applied for, not that she was a bad Transcriptionist or anything like that. Their question sheet is pretty specific. If she was looking for hours that they did not have available or a type of account that they did not have openings for, that would explain it. At least she heard at all. I applied to at least a dozen companies, many mentioned here often as good or great companies, that never even acknowledged my application or resume. Each experience is obviously different.
Me thinks the 'lady' doth protest too much - nm
So what exactly IS your point, if any, besides the obvious pedantic and self-righteous diatribe?
Me thinks the lady doth protest too much
I do not know All Type or any of the people involved in this but it have been reading along because I am interviewing with them next week. I was very upset by this and scared that I had made the wrong choice. You have made a lot of statements and I was thinking that you were treated unfairly and that I hoped you proved your case in court and maybe make our place in the industry a little stronger. We are the lowest people on the totem pole in every company and we do get kicked around a lot. But you now sound like you had it in for one particular person at your company and have worked very hard to cause problems for that person. I just do not know why you would stay there or even want to go back if you hate this person and she makes you this unhappy with your life and job and she singled you out to cut your pay so drastically. I agree with the other poster who said you have wasted a great deal of time on this and that you should move on and find yourself a better job with a company that is a better fit for you. I think you have gone too far and become far too emotional when you get this dangerously close to slander.

Sorry, that should be thinks…fingers too fast today

There's only one way to find out if an employer thinks you'd be as suited for a return to this
.
Anyone who thinks it is "okay" and we should "accept" the way society is changing ...sm
is the reason why it is. The ones who just roll over and take it, should be ashamed for not having backbone and standing up to globalization for not standing up for themselves, our country, and our children and their children. This is the reason why we the whole people are losing control of our government and what they control, offshoring, loss of privacy, etc.
Yet, second company thinks it should work and not mess up other platform (sm)
I will feel better when the actual technician sees about loading it. Not that the recruiters don't know their job, just nervous.
I had others report they are using 1 computer for 2 different companies and maybe having to use a second pedal. Let's hope we are lucky.
Hafta laff -- SM thinks she's quite the master of sarcasm.
In case anyone thinks Escription is a good thing!!
This is just the beginning as more and more records are residing on the internet. And when you go into see your doctor, he is more concerned with making his laptop work and inputting info than he is listening to you. My friends are angry about this as they see it more and more. So EMR, internet, etc are more trouble than they are worth and we can only hope we go back to the way it used to be.
Transcend really thinks we are stupid and would never know a little line count manipulation.
They picked the wrong people to try that on!!! 
Must be a skinny person who thinks it's that easy. If it were, trust me, we'd all be thin.
No one wants to be overweight, noone what to contemplate surgery, but I think there is a conscious choice to want to live and will do anything to keep doing that with a decent quality of life. It's not always by choice that people are overweight. All I can think of here is ....empathy.. and I applaud anyone who cares enough about living to do whatever it takes, no matter how drastic. For some, it's their last chance to live so spare us all with the Just diet and exercise speech.
Hello??!! I'm the original poster! I think I can respond to the poster who replied to my original
nm
Not that poster but
why was she rude? I didnt see anything rude in her post. So she got more lines than you, how is that rude? I work at Transcend also and I got my lines in that I usually get. I had to type a different shift of course. I work different times of the day when it is slow and I always manage to make it.
Also, the email that was sent out I think was very considerate. Any other company, when slow ( and they ALL get slow), just slows down with no explanations, reassurances, or care.
That's not what the poster said. Poster said
If the poster was hired at 8 cpl last year and makes 13,001 lines to qualify for the incentive (0.0025 cpl at 13,001 lines) that means the poster only makes 1072.58. But the MTs hired after Nov. 1 at 10 cpl makes 1100.00 for only producing 11,000 lines. Tell you what, that would freak me out if I just got hired there. Because no matter when you get hired, in a few short weeks or months you're just the old worn out mare to them.
Are you the same poster as below?
I appreciate your comments about new accounts coming on board in January and June. That is very likely.
The MTs here who are sobbing, as you say, and cannot have it both ways ARE the ones who did keep a fairly regular schedule and did for years, and now for the last couple months the rug has been pulled up from under them.
To the poster(s) below who is/are asking
about TransHealth, I am the one who answered your questions and got flamed for being honest. This is exactly why I said before I will never put why I hated a company again. I have no reason to lie, but just believe me when I say it is definitely in your best interest(s) to stay away from this company. They are the absolute worst out there and that is saying something!!
Not that poster, but I know what he/she SM
is saying because I have worked with a number of people over the years who will look you straight in the eye and tell you that they were the best transcriptionists and in fact they were terrible! Usually they had a bunch of years in, but they had limited value - like typing only 1 type of work or had only worked at 3 little rural hospitals, like that. They functioned well as long as the dictator was American and spoke at a normal rate of speed but they would never be able to do the kind of work a normal transcription service has.
Not the poster above, but that's how I met this
person. I had a problem and posted about it on this very board, and this person was so kind and caring and helpful. Nothing to do with a job - but with med transcription. She has been a mentor AND friend to many, many MTs for no financial gain whatsoever at all - thus anyone even bothering to post in her defense, let alone know who she is. She got nothing out of me, had nothing to gain from helping me - just went out of her way to help me, and I know has done the same for others. A really nice and professional MT - one who wants to help others newer to the field, etc. I don't see her post here anymore for a long time, and I just pray that she does not read the boards either. Really an all time low for MTs to post personal attacks on a person - I'm sure Admin isn't aware of it, or this whole thread would be in the trash where it belongs.
I think the poster was asking
what companies require you to use an FTP site to download your dictation files and send them back. I understand what you mean, but the company I work for does not require MTs to use an FTP site. I could be wrong, but I think that is what the OP was referring to.
this may be the same poster over and
over again. Diskriter has a huge turnover. H-U-G-E, both inside the main office and with transcriptionists. I couldn't take it any more. I was jumped from one account to another to another. I was told to work weekends and when I would work the weekend, I sometimes would not have any work. I actually made $23.00 one weekend after an 8 hour shift. I was fuming! They supposedly had all this work, but I certainly wasn't getting any.
I should state that I have been a Transcriptionist for 12 years, so it's not the quality of my work or lack of experience. When I first started with Diskriter, I was making my line count and my pay was not that great, but I figured I would stick with it. It just got worse. I left. I'm sure everyone has a different experience with them.
I'm not that poster above, but as far SM
as my experience with them went, he/she is speaking the truth. I did a SmartSource account and then went to work directly for Diskriter and it was like night and day. More like NIGHTMARE working for DR directly. The PTO, the health insurance, holidays, everything was totally different and much less than when I was on the SmartSource account. DR's ever-changing management was annoying because you never knew who was running what from week to week.
I think that poster was just trying to help SM
because if you wait for the administration to come onto a public bulletin board to address your questions, you will be waiting quite a while.
Not the other poster, but yes, I would say they-sm
have a lot of work that is actually worse than on the test. I wouldn't recommend this job to anyone who doesn't have a LOT (and I mean a LOT) of ESL experience. All of the accounts are pretty much the same, littered with these horrible ESL doctors.
Not the poster but
I got mine from transcriptiongear.com. You can buy it directly from the Instant Text website too. I paid 180 four years ago, but it was worth it. I have tried all the Expanders out there, and this one is by far the best!
