No, I mean Sgt. Pepper and
The Beatles! Yellow Submarine and all that, love.
Wow, they have a town named after me! LOL. nm

I think there are more than one company named that. nm

company named IDS...

Anyone ever hear of or work for this company, IDS?  Just curious as to what they are like, do they pay on time, are they good to work for, etc.  Thanks very much for any info.


There is a poster named Jai
that works for them, and she posted something not too long ago about them that she likes it.   I think she is the one though that has a lot of questions on the word board, so if she is doing word for word, they must have a lot of ESLs or something.
company named LTS
Can anyone tell me anything about a company named LTS?  Thanks
Aptly named.
Wrong! Minimizing, mind reading, name calling. Assuming.
Anyone know of a company named
Any information, good or bad?  Thanks very much.
This is the TTD lady for sure

Or someone who works with her.  No MT would be saying so what. 


bet if she named the co she would no longer be a recruiter for them.
Some things you have to look at twice because you really don't believe what you read
Any body know anything about a company named PTS,
curious.  I tried Archives but could not come up with anything.  TIA.
I'm looking for information about the company named DSG. nm

The Fat Lady Sang
Yes, but did she sing in harmony?
Thank you kind lady.

some lady called...
sounded more like she was screening me. She asked if I had the required needed to work for them (cardiology/pulmonology), line count, high-speed, etc. I told her yes, and she said someone would call me in a few days--that was a few months ago.
You are way off base lady
I have worked with Holocaust survivors, have you? Ive worked cleaning their rooms taking people for walks, holding hands, listening to stories of horror and hope, shared art therapy moments, given hugs and support. Dont you dare judge me. You are way out of line, whoever you are. If you get nothing else from what I've written here, get this: No one wants to be labeled a victim. You have absolutely no right.

Peace.

She's a nice lady but there isn't
I spent most weekends on her stuff.  The pay was way low, but she doesn't charge much anyway.  She would dump on me Fri night... not sure why she keeps needing this same position, but that should tell you something.  She posts for this position every month or so...  I guess no one lasts.... 
I do not believe any names were named or any co was mentioned. I only know what I was thinking and
only the incident. I would not name a co. That's not me.
Wrong about making assumptions though. We all do it. There is a big difference in making an assumption and actually naming a co which I did not do.
What did you want to know? Just named AAMT employer of year! sm
With the caveat that no company can be everything to all MTs, I personally have been with Webmedx (and Rodeer, who was bought by Wbx a few years ago) since 1998 and have been pleased. Good platform, decent accounts, average pay with chance of making bonuses, room for advancement (I know of MTs who have moved into QA), decent QA feedback, and I love my manager.

Benefits are good in my opinion. Pay is on time (all direct deposit), workflow decently steady. Your mileage may vary, of course. :)
Saw ad for Transcend and they actually named the new account they were hiring for (sm)
Isn't that a little strange?  I know we don't post account specifics and I have never seen a company do so before.  They mentioned the hospital name, town and state. 
company named Voice Systems
What does anyone know about a company in Georgia named Voice Systems?  Are they a good company to work for?  Do they pay well?  Thanks very much.
About as funny as a Clinic in California named Ole'
Didn't they get wiped out by the Mexicans? 
*good morning* !! Accts are not named here! NM

Is there actually a company named Rural Transcription?
I thought she was trying to say that she lives in a rural area and has to do transcription at home because there are no local in-house jobs. I didn't think she was badmouthing a particular company by name...

Am I missing something?
Ur gettin' on my nerves, old lady!

When the lady sold her company to..sm
Execuscribe, it went downhill from there.  I was hired by them, went through ALL of the testing except the Psych thing.....and then I was told I would be paid 7 cpl and I had to purchase liability insurance.  CC....this Denise person must have been your "bestest" friend????
nice spelling lady
x
I beg ur pardon, young lady!
I was NOT being sarcastic! Medquist truly IS my best company - my previous company paid $9/hr. and at the Q I make $25 - U may open mouth and insert foot now, missy!
I'd say no way, nice lady or not. There is absolutely no
way I would wait for 45 days for a paycheck.  She's waiting to get paid before she pays MT and if she doesn't have the $$ to pay MTs whether or not account pays, that doesn't speak well of the company.  Also I'm assuming that 6 cpl is as an IC.  You'd be better off working in fast food. 
There is a lady who posted here in the past - sm
Snowbunny I think is her name that uses it a lot because of her CTS I think. I just recently reloaded it on my computer (had it on my old one but never programed it), and still need to work with it a bit in order to actually start using it. I think it would help me a lot as I am not very fast at typing, even with my shortcuts, etc. Plus it would break up the monotony some I think. I have DNS8. I want to upgrade to the newest (10) but it is quite expensive, so it will probably wait a while. But I have heard if utilized correctly and with some work it can be worthwhile, but like anything it takes practice and you need to build it up, etc.
The J&J lady said to call her if there are questions.
It doesn't matter to me at all, so I haven't. 
High maintenance lady? LOL

High maintenance ladies usually find themselves a sugar daddy to provide their maintenance.  LOL  Ever consider combining your traveling to help someone who is less high maintenance?  Do you know that you can volunteer just about anywhere in the world doing good while vacationing at the same time?  How about volunteering with Habitat For Humanity?  You could combine that with your traveling too.  Gives you a much more warm and fuzzy feeling than just doing for yourself.  BTW we just bought a nice large motor home to serve as our private motel room.  Actually my husband and I are pretty low maintenance, we get our kicks by doing things for other less fortunate people.  Try it, you might like it.   


BTW Chatty, how have you been doing the last few years anyhow?  Don't ya just love being anon?  LOL


Hey coffee lady MssIndigo!
I got a kick out of reading your original post about VR and I appreciate this feedback also. I know, it's though though and I have been an MT for 20 years. I thought I was going to be transcribing when I got the job but it is mostly VR and my minimal goal is to achieve 250 lph, which is creeping up, but not there yet. I tell you though... I work hard for that money. My biggest thing with any new company is constantly looking up docs and different facilities. If not for that, my fingers would be flying. Let us all hang in there with a sip of coffee every now and again, eh!
I saw the MQ Hawaii vacation winner was someone named Lori G. (sm)
congratulations to her.  I, of course, am jealous though. 
My sister's cat is named Pubert - or Pube for short...
I really DO have odd sisters, don't I? BTW - my really cheap Big Sister did manage to buy me a decent gift - the Beatles 1 CD. Unfortunately, she got me the same thing last year...ARGH
I don't see anywhere where she named the person, or company, or location. NOT a big deal. nm

I have no info, but the energy center is named after my grandfather nm
Frank R. Applegate Energy Center
She's a sweet lady. She has a lot of experience and a lot of stories that go with it.
I like her a lot, but I can kind of see where you are coming from, as whenever I've spoken with her I could pretty much write off the next 60-90 minutes. It was a great time to clean out email, though! (And if you are reading this, you-know-who, it's not a criticism but rather an acknowledgement that you have a LOT of stories to tell!)
It is the lady who I call to request time off?
nm
Does anyone know how to contact the lady at Administrative Assistants?? (sm)
I can't find anything for a website or in the archives here on how to contact.  Thank you.
Tired of being called an old lady or aging!
I am in this over 26 years. call me old! I am young at heart, about 21. I am also in biological age just 47! How dare you assume. Some of us started working our way through college! I have 3 small children yet, and plan to work for many years to come in this industry. Also don't talk to me like a dutch uncle telling me how I complain this, etc. You don't know me (the above poster) and don't presume you do! I am at once apalled, and insulted someone would come here and talk to me, the one reading this, that way. If you had to put your user name on a regular basis, you would never speak this way. One thing about this board is allowing people to post names on this board begets nastiness. There, now. I have said my old lady, lazy, bad-quality, MTness piece!
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.

see inside - it's just a start, but stay away from the Indian named owner - I think we know

In retrospect, I shouldn't have named my company because truly I do love working for them and sho
assume this was just a payroll error. So, that's what I'm thinking until I know better. If I did lose my insurance without any notice, then I would not be a very happy camper and would do what I needed to do. But, in the meantime, they have been great to work for...
i got an email from them. Very nice lady, would love to work for
I'm sure they pay very well but I need the insurance. I went with JLG.
I worked for a lady's service who was bought out by Transcend
a few years ago and they offered her a position in the home office. She sold, had the job for a few months and then she was terminated. I know for a fact that Transcend said in a paper article in the Atlanta Journal and Constitution that they outsourced because could not find enough American MTs to do the work. Now what I find surprising is how many complain on here about sitting and waking for work for Transcend. Wonder how that happens?
We also say 'Ford trucks' named after Henry Ford. Makes sense to me.

Funny, but the lady I talked to on the phone about a job there made me decide right then for some
gut feeling that this wasnt for me. Not sure exactly what it was but sort of turned me off.
It's IC, hospice reports, Dictaphone ExText. Nice lady, but
