Was let go from Zylomed because of posting to MTStars board

Just a little followup to my post of 10-14-06 post to this board. The Zylomed MT manager failed to address the real issue I raised concerning taking away regular work without notice or explaination, but decided to let me go today because of my post about their company to this board. So, because of my comments I have been let go. Maybe it's best to not name company names (excuse me, my tongue is in my cheek) on a board that's specifically designed to uncover these problems. So, MTs beware, I guess. However, I received many supportive emails from others visiting this board--one of those kind MTs referred me to another service that I'm starting with tomorrow (while I beat the pavement locally.) Much happier MT today! Feel like I can breathe again. This board has awesome support. All worked out well.

I'm on MTstars posting so...
work is still low. Been able to meet my committment, but it takes all day.
Does Happy OSI'er ever work? She is too busy posting on MTStars!
Love the MTStars Job board....
No Jobs from MTSOs involved in offshoring, sending good/easy dictators to India, Pakistan, Philippines etc and keeping the ESL garbage for us here.

Keep your eye on the MTstars job seekers board.
There are ads for ortho accounts quite often, but the ads are usually deleted when the positions are filled.
At the top of the company board page, do a google search for MTStars.
Start reading. This is an Indian based company. There were recent posts over the past few days about this company.
You were just posting on her board
when she didn't like your avatar. ??????????? I'm not sure I understand this whole thread. There are a lot of companies that offshore and there are also a lot of companies that do not pay ever. It's a shame, but it's true. 
How did they get your name from posting on this board. nm
:
Before posting on any board you should know the rules/
guidelines. There is a link on the top of each page that tells you what you need to know and one of them is not to post account information. No one is attacking you. It is just common sense that you don't go around posting account information.
Posting my resume on job board
TIA
It's simple, look at the job posting board.
The more ads you see from the same company, they are the companies to avoid. They have the biggest turnover and the worst MTs.
WHO is being sued for posting on the board?
Seriously is someone being sued for their post?
If so, what is the charge?
On the face of it, this seems outrageous - would appreciate any details you can share.
I think you are damage control posting all over this board lately.

Hands On Transcription does, there is a posting for them on the board.
they are hiring now.
There are board posting policies at the top of the page

I may be posting this question on the wrong board but
does anyone know who manufactures or carries a computer chair that has arms which pivot from the position at each side of the chair (regular position for armrests) to the front of the chair which gives you a really nice armrest. I saw one chair like this recently, but before I could even look into buying it, the college that was using it put it in for their auction and I lost track of it. It was the nicest chair I have ever sat in and the one I have now is ready for retirement. Thanks so much if anyone knows of this. :)
Posting on the company board and companies figuring out
who it is. Okay, this is the topic, and the reason why I am bringing this up is there were at least 2 posts here in the last week stating they believed the company would find out or did find out they posted here and they said negative things and might get fired or did not get hired because of it.
How is this possible? Can a recruiter or boss actually pin down who is posting? What if someone says something and they are a troll and sounds like a situation which the company person perceives is an employee and they take it out on the possible new hire or employee and they are wrong?
There have been posts here in the past by company managers who say if they find out who is posting they will sue for slander. Then, MTs come on here and assume that the companies go to the board managers and get the IP address to figure out who this is. Even if it was a certain IP address, and they went through this whole process to find out, it could be routed through another IP address such as overseas (this is often done in the case of hiding identity).
Since this is an anon board, how can any company say for sure it is a certain person. Why would they go to the trouble unless it were given to the police or a lawyer in the case of attempted murder or threat of such?
I want to know you opinions. And moderator please feel free to comment. Wondering if our IP addresses are given out every time a company suspects something and if so, is this an invasion of our privacy since this should be anon. Or, is it that people are paranoid, whether it be the employee/new hire, or company assuming such. Remember to never assume because why? You make an *** out of u and me.
Thanks for your comments. This has been bothering me a while now, and I would like to get some input back on this issue from companies and from posters alike.
WAITING FOR WORK? POSTING ON JOB SEEKERS BOARD.sm
07/28/09 for new MTs, FT & PT, all shifts. Are they saying the accounts are UNDERSTAFFED?
Naturally, the new hirees will be gooing and gushing all over this board again about how GREAT their accounts are and how EASY their dictators are.
I JUST WONDER WHAT THIS LATEST, YET ANOTHER HIRING BLITZ IS GOING TO LEAD TO IN ANOTHER FEW WEEKS. Anyone care to predict?  .
ANYONE ELSE BEING SUED BY TRANSTECH MEDICALFOR POSTING ON THIS BOARD??

The problem with posting a question like that on a public board is that you could get inaccurate inf
I asked a question about a company I worked for, received 5 responses all saying the same thing, that we were paid for a holiday, which was wrong. I counted on it and was in a bind because of it.
God forbid the poor poster made a mistake by posting on the wrong board!! Good grief!

It has nothing to do with MTStars or the owner of MTStars. It
has to do with the fact that the person who posted gave enough information that the company recognized who it was. We, at MTStars, do not give anyone information about who posts what.
Zylomed North Florida, Inc....is this the same as Zylomed?
And does anyone have any current info on them...do they hire IC? Thanks!
the posting is the exact same posting as you read on the
job seekers board. It is under state boards
Thank you and thank MTStars..NM

Maybe MTStars
is also hindering your production?
MTStars
This board is really a great help when looking for employment. There are many positive posts that turn out to be decent companies, and then there are also negative posts about experiences each person has had. Both perspectives should be allowed and not discouraged with threats. Just maybe, these companies that are trying to decrease our wages even further and are deceptive in their business practices will be put out of business eventually and we might see a new trend. There are a few businesses posted about regularly on this board that have the same issues come up time and time again. I see these as red flags. On the flip side it is just as important to let people know if you've found a good thing (this does not include recruiters on here making untruthful posts for their benefit). This might encourage companies that are treating their MTs well and are above reproach to continue to strive towards making this once again a decent career path. One could only hope that a board like this would be able to make a significant difference in the way things have been going by networking and sharing our information.

But what about those ads up at the top of MTStars? Those
are their sponsers/advertisers. One of those could also place a job post with MTstars.

MTStars Ad Policy
That USED to be the policy - but according to the www.mtstars.com homepage: The hands of time cannot be turned back on the widespread transfer of information globally and as of January 1, 2006, MTStars opened itself up to include the global environment. MTStars limits this only to allow US Transcription Services that outsource offshore to post open jobs seeking US QA Editors. DIRECT offshore posting, communication, solicitation is still prohibited. Translation: Only companies that are BASED offshore are not to advertise through this site. Hope this helps!
Just sent you an email through MTStars (nm)
Thanks
The owner of MTStars?
I thought Sheri owned it? (though I haven't been here in a while)
Well, MTStars does have a system set up
lack of a better word - I guess its handled on an individual basis at times, i.e. whether to permanently ban or temporarily ban or just a word of warning. I know from experience.  There are definitely outright trolls, and that is true, but I know even from my own experience, I can just get so angry sometimes at something that I do lose it and say things that I probably actually would have said to someone's face, but maybe not. I don't know. As the posters above have said, we can be a very unappreciated and abused employee, MTs as a whole, and many of us are in very frustrating work situations, more so in these hard times, so, yes, tempers flare. I think most flares here are from those who just refuse to validate others' experiences, i.e. the happy MTs who viciously attack the unhappy MTs, whether just in general or specifically company related. That is so sad. The MTs finally vent, as really none of us have anyone to talk to or understand in real life, and they get squashed and called names, or insulted that they must be having problems due to poor skills, etc. That's so sad and I generally then find myself attacking people I think are attacking other people. Its just human nature for all of us, though the name calling and stuff is very poor judgment. I think its happening more of late because of the financial issues that are impacting us all - bosses and MTs alike. I appreciate the current editing of this forum, as I said earlier it used to be so heavily edited that it was 100% skewed to hide the truth about the site owner's favorite companies, i.e. advertisers, sponsors, or employment affilitations, etc. I 100% agree that it was her perogative to do so, as she owned it, but it was done in such a way that nobody knew that things were being skewed that way. So, it was a form of misrepresentation, though, again, her right. So, I hope that for the most part what I read on here these days is a bit more unfiltered - might not be happy news, but perhaps its more fair and balanced, as they say!
well I am sitting here on MTstars so...
That means there are no jobs. I ran out about an hour ago. Guess I will grab some lunch and try again later. Have a good one.
MtStars, new soap..i love it!
I ditto your sentiments..it IS like getting hooked to a soap. I read so many posters that tend to go for the jugular, when an opinion is posted contrary to some beliefs. My daughter, who is also an MT, but in house at a hospital, just got "hooked" on this board and can't believe how "catty" some can be.
Well, it is all over, in house or at home, in medical transcription or K-Mart, been around for ages, but sometimes it gets brutal in my book.
I won't flame you for being a MQ MT...been there myself for close to 10 years now and it works for me, period.
Yep. Go to the home page for MTStars
and click on TOS/Disclaimer (it's on the left toward the bottom of the screen).

YES! On MTStars you are allowed to say CHRISTMAS!
Well, think about it!! They lied to the MTStars Admin.

MTStars administration says time and again...s/m
MT Stars has said time and time again to NEVER correct other posters misspellings and/or incorrect grammar.
Play nicely now, or don't you all know how to follow the rules, which, by the way, are for everyone!
ATSI Thread on MTStars
I saw a recent job listing on another site for an MT radiology position with ATSI, then I came here to find info about them. Doesn't sound promising. Link to short thread about ATSI is included.
And another, more recent thread on MTStars
http://forum.mtstars.com/company/v/1/86381.html
yes, MTStars says it is okay to give company name.

You are committing libel against MTStars. sm
MTStars does not provide ANY information on any poster to any individual or company.
If you receive an email through the MTStars board, the ONLY way your email address is exposed is if you respond back to them.
MTStars Team
Hmmmm. Did you just suggest that people not come to MTStars?
You are a total mess, and how anyone could take anything you say seriously is beyond me.
You have a real problem! Please seek help!
NO..the only place I ever hear news on MQ is on MTStars.
Most of the time they don't even know who is working for them. They never call. They never write.
