to handle her money. This 30-day thing or 45-day thing is because they do not have the money in the bank to pay. Every GOOD service owner should have at least two entire pay periods in the bank for payroll. They should not wait until they are paid by their customers. Bad bad business. I would never work for a company that withheld pay ever again. Yes, I have BTDT! I think we all have learned the hard way.

THIS SERVICE OWNER DOES NOT PAY
A friend of mine has been working for this service owner, located in Arizona, and has received only one paycheck and that was late. She is now working without being paid, caught up in the I need the job and I need paid.
How do service owners get away with this? I wonder if contacting the contracted hospital would get her attention since multiple emails from multiple MTs are ignored, voice mails unanswered.
People wonder what happened to transcription? People like Philis Kortland happened to transcription.
What recourse does an MT truly have other than to quit? NONE.

SERVICE OWNER RATES POSTED
in post (below) that states that there is no money involved to be a part of this. Please read in its entirety - it is a long post but very informative.

Do you always believe what your employer tells you?
I worked for a local company and transcribed university hospital and VA reports. The company was pretty busy - 100 MTs across the country and the owner whined all the time about how he couldn't make ends meet and couldn't pay MTs more - blah, blah, blah - but I certainly never got any tissues out during these meetings. We found out from the bookkeeper later that the company charged and got18 cents per line and that was 6 years ago. Then he increased his charge to a large account the next contract bid and lost it and and didn't have the guts to lay off by senority and just let everyone keep working with promises they were seeking new accounts that didn't happen very quickly at all while we were all out of work and scrapping to find what we could. It is called GREED.
Agree, unless OP tells them, they will never know.

In my opinion, take what MQ tells you with
x
it tells you your tier rate
on the sheet that comes with thepacket. If you are a Tier 2 like me when I wanna be a Tier 3 I have to test. That's for everyone. I don't know about new hires as SE's are changing to new hire with 8 or 16 or 24 hour work week. Maybe an SE can answer this who has the packet, I am full time.
that tells me some people don't know how to use their brain.

Control I tells me I have no right to access (sm)
Isn't it that way for all? I'm new at this.
if noone tells her? Will she keep repeating her sorry work
ed
Oh yeah...I can beat that one...How about the IT guy who tells who...
that the company has massively overhired on the account that you were just hired for. Hmm...could that be the reason why I have no money to buy my kids any Christmas gifts this year???!!! 9 months to go and I will never go near this transcription bullcrap ever again!!! This is my last Christmas ever again that I can't buy my kids any Christmas gifts!!!
This is what I am leaning toward. This is what my heart tells me.
I guess it is my brain that is all confused. Your help here is truly appreciated, it echos that small voice we are supposed to listen to in hard times....
Well, that tells us nothing, Care to elaborate w/o yelling? SM
I worked on it for radiology and it was wonderful.
how childish.
your name "just me" tells me how minute you feel,
WHO in the world would call themselves, Just Me. Like I am a nobody; a brainless unimportant to be hear is a Just me.
I read the article, it states exactly what the company always tells us...
that they offshore a small percentage of their work, and that it will never take the place of their domestic MLS. I love working at Transcend.
For someone that doesn't work at Transcend, you sure have gone to a lot of trouble to find the article and continue posting about it. Any other issues?
When a company tells you you'll tripple your line count

The email said the owner as she is the owner of the email software package. sm
We got the list from AHDI. If someone does not wish to be on our email list, there is a link to click on at the bottom of those for opting out. We immediately remove those that click the link.
We also have a few mailling going out. Same thing - if you opt out of the email program, we will remove you from all contact.
We need transcriptionists for many new accounts and have ads on here and other sites, as well as several magazines. We are going to need over 100 MTs in the next 3 months due to new accounts and more work on existing accounts!
Hmm, wonder what the owner will say
no flame, but I would not tolerate that kind of off loading in a public forum from someone on my management team. Please remember I was responding to horn tooting that was short on information and left an impression that huh, I could do better elsewhere in addition to feeling insulted at the lack of decent benefits. There was no mention of UC contribution, STD or LTD, employer paying part of the health insurance premiums.
I said what I said mostly to make the point. If you want to sell me, do a good job the first time or you sink yourself and I won't look at you twice. There was little in the original post to sway me in your favor and the Jeckle/Hyde posting afterwards warns me of good day/bad day tangents.
As I said, best of luck to your company.
Are you the owner of
Why not just post the email address of the 'administrator'. Are you just trying to draw traffic to your forums and away from the forums here.
Seems to me, if you are really seeking MTs you'd just post like the other companies do on the Job board.
it USED to mean owner (sm)
back when most MT services were little and there was a real owner. Now that there are so many huge multinationals with no owner to take personal responsibility for the service, it's sort of transmogrified to mean organization, but that's redundant.
Just take it as meaning a service. Once again, AAMT, worthless as ever, ruins the language.
no changes that i know of. Same owner.

and this is the new owner
 My god you people are so gullable. That picture could have come from anyones kitchen!!!
How do you know? Are you the owner?
They are obviously losing something if there's no work. Have you been with them since they started or something? Do you know of every account MDI has or what? How can you make a blanket statement like that?
I can't believe people sit frustrated about no work and don't move on; that's just plain silly. There are tons of companies hiring; get on with it already! Come on show your stuff to a company that will appreciate you and not OVERHIRE!
Owner? sm
I thought someone named Tracy owned Net-Med?
Should be owner's...sorry. nm

FTP service
can anyone explain the difference of using an FTP and that of a company that expects one to have cable or high speed internet? I have been doing this for little over a year and hope this does not sound like a dumb question. Thank you for your help.
Another service
Please put your money where your mouth is, give initials or some relevant information, or please stop spreading innuendo. Thank you.
What service?
What service is she offering exactly? The service of placing yet another ad on the job board making us believe it is a completely different job only to be hired for the same account that Superior has listed right below it? Are you flipping serious? You honestly think we need this service? What a nice gig she has. I would love to place a bunch of ads and get people to work for a company and take a couple cents for each person I find. She must be exausted working so hard for us needy MTs. Thanks bunches TTD!!! What would we ever do without you? Go jump in a lake, fly a kite and kiss my butt.
At my very first outside service
job back in 1990 I was paid 7.5 cents per line based on a 55 character line for clinic work and a line was a line was a line. If I typed Sincerely, it was considered a line. None of this BS about characters only or black characters or no spaces or some other tomfoolery to rip off the MT. A large employer who has settled recently in a class action used to make us work on a 90-character line and then convert it to 55 when sent to the hospital and pocket the difference. Outrageous!
While I realize we will never have a line is a line again, unless you strike a good deal with a private doctor, I agree that a minumum 10 cpl (probably one of those tomfoolery lines to boot) in this day and age is not an obscene amount to ask for.
What other service do you mean? nm

A few posts on here say the owner is a mean one. nm

Owner is snarky.

As the owner of Omniscribe.... sm
I would like to come here and say that I have no idea who this individual is. She/he has never worked for me and my paychecks have NEVER been late. A company who does not pay their MTs would go under in no time flat and I am still going. Omniscribe is a very small company and I can count on one hand the number of MTs who have left here. Not one of them would come to a public forum to bash me or my company, so I'd be very curious to know who you are. I'm certain you have me and my company confused with some other place.
Oh, okay. I thought it was okay because the owner
people are saying DEROGATORY things about her. I was saying GOOD things and mine was deleted.
Is this really the owner of a company
Wow! You are soooooooooo ghetto and ignorant. I am speechless!
As a business owner
I have had people give notice and then NOT work their full shifts because they were leaving. Contracts can stipulate that you can be deducted pay for not fulfilling your contract.
Anyway, there are other methods to collect funds owed, if they are due.
I just do not feel that public character assassination is an appropriate manner to do so.
Walk a mile in my shoes!
You said you spoke to the owner.
You are not credible.
owner, not organization.
Remember the Owner
I remember reading another board a few years back....maybe quite a few years...and I remember distinctly J. Weight's name. I know she was one of the most argumentative and flaming people out there. Stay away.
Why would you talk to owner?
Perhaps she is an account lead. That, or a buttkisser.
Why I spoke with the owner - sm
SHE called me, SHE hired me, SHE promised me a job at a certain rate, SHE gave me all kinds of excuses why the job never materialized and then I never heard from anyone again. Enough said.
I also spoke with the owner for the same
exact reasons. She called me, she hired me, she emailed me daily, she offered me account after account, which never materialized while I did crap work just waiting for her promises to be kept. Guess what? They never were!
Owner of a company
I agree with you. I would not want the responsility of owning a company or even managing. My dad was in management for 28 years. You are not there to make everyone happy and sometimes people have to be let go. If you cannot keep your end of the deal I would make you move on. Actually I would be a real hard a-- if I were a manager. A lot of it has to do with respect for each other. You need to appreciate what you have. Too many times these days everyone just wants a pay check regardless of anything else. Some people do not take pride in their work or anything else. Every thing is not hunky dorry every single day, either on our side or a manager/company owner's side. It is just not realistic.
The owner will encourage you to
talk to her current staff, etc., but that is definitely biased. An anonymous board like this is is a safer.
and........ the owner of this company
is subcontracting work out for Medware. Medware and herself are one in the same.
....starting with the owner! lol

Use full name of owner. nm
The owner does at least read here..
I had posted here complaining ile back that I couldn't get ahold of the recruiter who offered me a position and the owner of the company sent me a personal email to get in touch with her as they were moving offices and the recruiter was off part of that week.
