In Reply to: hehe - ya got me. I did have a point, though, and that is that - ready for a cool change
other companies? I'm happy for people who are happy with their jobs, no matter what company they work for.

exactly....all of the people that I know that work for Keystrokes are happy and love their job...
move on if it is not the right fit for you...there are plenty of other companies out there...
I am not her spokesperson just happy with the company I work for and upset that people can be so sm
misleading because the fit was not good for them.
If you have been on these boards a while, you would know that she always posts her name. I emailed her today to tell her what was happening on here, and the response I got back was she does not even look on here as it is too upsetting and has promised herself not to come and look. She has too much else to do with her time and defending herself and her company is always misinterpreted. She basically told me I should spend more time working or with my family than spending time on this soap opera. It is better to not care and let people form their own opinions. Everyone takes the postings with a grain of salt anyway. I think it is sad that she has to be so tough-skinned.
I love it there. Tons of work, great people. I am 100% happy.

I doubt it. There are more happy people than unhappy people sm
at Medquist. I've checked out other companies but I liked MQ the best (I kept working at MQ while testing other companies).
As a whole.. nice people to work for, decent benefits but the get off/on the system, work/no work,
is maddening. I couldnt pay my bills or even work the schedule I was assigned. They would ask us not to work until work built up in the evenings and I specifically wanted to work days as I have kids etc. It just didnt work out for me but to each his own. It just seems there has to be a better balance in this business that what is happening.
For people at MDI-MD that say they are out of work, I see they are hiring now. Are people still
running out of work or did they get more accounts. I am interested in this company.
I did some overflow work for Landmark.. they are wonderful to work for.. very nice people.. pay was
.
There is NO work at Transtech. Maybe they just choose special people to send work to

Great people to work for, but I had to leave due to lack of work. Hopefully that has changed. SM
Most of us who do not live in California had to go IC. When I was there, they did not have statutory status, although they told me they did when they hired me. Their pay for VR is VERY low, not a living wage. Many of the folks in the office are ex-YOG and great to work for/with. Good luck.
I know two people who work 3rd shift for Keystrokes on radiology and have a lot of work. Maybe you
on an account that has enough work. I hate to hear that someone doesn't have enough work or that they have a problem because I know that Keystrokes works to find the right account for every person. They do a lot for us but you have to talk to them until you find the right account or volume or hours for you.
I think that a lot of companies are that way but there is a lot of job-hopping in transcription. Everyone is looking for the perfect job but the grass is not always greener on the other side. There are a few MTSO's really are not good but for the most part, the others don't intentionally drive people away. That would not make sense. They need us to work as much as we need them to have the work there for us.
I used to work there and know people who still do...they have no work on clinic account but if you
are acute care or have experience in acute care you will be fine...
What I want to know is why aren't people working?
......
Do you MDI-MD people have enough work? sm
I saw an ad on one of the other boards and thought I had seen someone mention there wasn't enough work there. Just wanted to find out the current situation before I pursue anything with them. TIA!
For people looking for work
Anybody thinking of going to work for LM in PA, run for your life, not a good place to work, bad communication, or none at all, and a bunch of backstabbers.
I work for these people
Its as bad, as it sounds.
Worse even.
is all IC transcription like this?
who do you people work for? NM

I don't even work at TT but come on people....
today would be considered a holiday, there will be low work at ALL companies. I really don't see any reason to panic or complain. All I can say is WOW!
Give it some time. I think some people aren't working today and the ice
s
I'm thinking economy and people just aren't having elective surgeries or (sm)
going to docs and really think twice before heading to the ER. I put off my son's braces for a while and just made the appt this week after going for his consult a year and a half ago!! I know how you feel though; it's hard not to be paranoid these days!
Nice people to work for.
Pay is higher than other MTSO. QA is very helpful and always encouraging. I never heard anything negative, even when I did make a mistake. The only reason I left is because I was offered a local account with a surgery center. I would go back in a heartbeat if I needed work.
The people are great to work with
and the pay is good and on time. I do find the work isn't as steady as I'd like though, but hey, that's the MT business, right?
let the people who want to work weekends do it
Some people want those shifts but i do not
??? some people do work weekends and some don't
why so rude and grouchy?
Research & ask people who work there
The rate may be lower but if the account is better with fewer bad dictators and impossible ESL's and the freedom to do your work instead of countless conference calls and useless emails - you end up making more bang for your buck. That sure is true in my case.
Any KS people running out of work? (sm)
Just curious.....
Yep, plenty of people will work for that.
Recently a bunch of new MTs posted that they are working for a company making 4 cpl for transcription and 1.25 cpl for editing. I about died. As long as people keep accepting these wages, they are only going to keep going down. What need is there to pay 8 or 9 cpl when they can get MTs to work for 4 or 5?
Too many people out of work these days - the more...sm
interested you let them know you are in the job, the better your chances. On top of that, when a job is advertised, I've been told over and over about the total mountains of resumes they get, so nudging their memory will only serve as a positive thing for you! Good luck!!!
Actually, no. Most people would get paid at work!
xx
go to India and work with those people sm
you support so well.
Why is OSi hiring new people when I have been out of work for 6 weeks?
I am statutory (or IC, whatever they are calling it now). I have a main account and 2 -- count them 2 -- back up accounts. I have been out/short of work for over 6 weeks.
Unless you are a full time employee, you get no benefits, no hourly, NOTHING. I am amazed that they are hiring when they have people already trained and begging for work!!!
Don't they realize that it costs a WHOLE lot more in turnover to train a new employee than to keep an already-trained one happy?
I'm looking at other nationals now. I've never been one to job hop, but I just can't take the time off any more!!!
Some good people used to work for MQ including
s
But that is why she has people who work for her, to take care of other things when she has
mmmmm
They will try anything to get people to work for them.....WOW..what a bait trap!
If HL people know they are going to be losing their jobs, why are they still doing work for them?
:+
I work for Allegiant too - great people and a
nm
I do. Very nice people. I have plenty of work sm
Pay is on time. Nobody bothers me. I have a great account and wonderful software that is Word based,but they have several accounts a couple of different platforms, so not sure what the others are like.
Any other TransTech people out of work this morning? sm
After the big hiring blitz, I am afraid that maybe my account is getting saturated. I guess that is the way with all good things ... it doesn't last.
Good! Great people to work for!
//
then just work when you can - people moan and groan when there is
not enough work and when there is too much. If you're not happy, leave.
Some people who work in offices have that benefit, but no MT
booooooo
Explain to me how the work goes to the people who have been there longer?? sm
I've been at TT less than 3 months, have not run out of work for more than an hour, and have never had a problem meeting and surpassing the required line count.
KS people who work on accounts with lag time (sm)
I have been having the phone line go dead and sometimes I can call right back and get my report and sometimes I lose it. I have had my cable people out here several days in a row, and they can find nothing wrong. I was wondering if this happens to others - and maybe it is a problem with the hospital line we use - not actually the line in my home. I appreciate any input. (I am new on this account so do not have enough history to know.)
Future-Net as IC, although work can be low. Nice people. nm

I don't work there anymore, but I know people who do, and she did not leave. pls r/o
That person has not left the company, and she is still wreaking havoc. LOL
It just seems redundant to keep asking about the low work and 15 people answer, that's all.

Lots of people work PT on the weekends
as a second job, so no, all full time people don't have to work weekends.
New people hired are last to receive work.
&*&
Yep, hiring again. Are people quitting or what? There never seems to be a lot of work to me. nm
:
Jennifer.... How are you telling people where to work
when down below you were asking questions about where to work, how to get a job, you seem to know an awful lot for someone asking questions. What is up with that??
Where did I make people that work weekends
feel they are not being Christian or family-oriented? I certainly did not make those direct statements. Please correct me if I am wrong, but where did I post that or what did I say to make you feel that way? That was not my intention. and remember anyone can post as OP. Many of these comments that say OP are not mine. Just clarifying.
I agree, plus this affects people who don't work for
the state of the transcription industry.
