a rose by any other name would smell as sweet

And an MT is now a *clerk,* according to the posting on the job board.  I'd like to apply for Head Cluck when it becomes available.  Then you've got your Lead Cluck, and your Editor Cluck, QA Cluck, Cluck Manager, VP of Cluckdom, Supercluck, CEC and CFC (Chief Executive Cluck, and Chief Financial Cluck) and we all work for Clucks-R-Us.

Rose was still there...
She was there when I was there in 2007.
She used to go by the name of sonata rose.

Oh yes, this Rose person is very
Shady deal.  I did half of the test, and told her to hit the bricks.  The sound quality was horrible.  I guess my gut was right with this lady with 2-3 differet e-mail accounts. 
Contact Rose, she will tell you which three you need to do for

The thing that worries me is the name Rose

Maybe I am barking up the wrong tree, but I would have to say that TrueScribe is new on me, and I'm thinking this Rose person has burned MTs out of money and is looking under a new name?????  Just my opinion though, not a known fact on my part.  I am just a paranoid person though!


talking about the other person, not Rose...
I just wanted to clarify that you are not speaking of Rose, but the other person mentioned, right? Rose was actually very nice. I knew what you meant, just that the post looks misleading.
I left a few year ago because of Rose. (nm)

I worked there a very long time ago. Is Rose still there? sm
I was very happy there, except for the, then manager, who was the owner's sister. That was the only reason I left. Our personalities just clashed and she was very demanding.

Other than that, the company was run very well, I was paid well; however, no matter how many lines I did, it never seemed to be enough. I was transcribing 2500 lines a day, and still it wasn't enough.

I would say good company and give them a try. If the sister is gone, things may be a whole lot better.

I think they use Vianeta now, terrible platform in my opinion.
Well, those rose-colored glasses are all well and good
and I love MDI, too, but what would you say to someone who was having a problem making enough to make the house payment? I loved it, too, and think the people, including D, are tops, but I would caution anyone about the low work situation right now. It has gone on for months.
They gave "referral bonuses" and Sonata Rose is
the alter ego of Vickie Herndon
That's kind of scary. Rose was very nice to me, but then I guess sm

everyone is when they are trying to get you to take a job.  The pay seemed decent for being an employee, but if the line counting method cannot be trusted, then I'm not sure that is so great either.  And I'm a bit nervous about not having direct deposit.  I have heard the check is in the mail story before ... ugh.



Thanks to everyone for your input.  It certainly gives me something to think about. 


Do I smell
curry powder?
How would they know you smell bad? Don't you
x
I smell a rat!!!
I mean seriously, when was the last time, and how many times, have any of us been offered .11 cpl to start with that kind of bonus. It's few and far in between so you know when one does get posted, they have to be flooded with resumes.  So, if you have 200 people each doing 4 tests...hmmm...sounds like good free labor to me. LOL
I smell a foreign spy. You need to...
Leave the board before I report you to Customs and Immigration. LOL.
I smell the coffee
:)
I smell management!
Stinks, too. P-U!
I smell curry.

That is so sweet of you to say. Thank you!
Amphion rocks. I will always say that:)
Sweet - Thanks !!!! NM
sm
That is so sweet - thank you! sm
I still like to have Christmas off with my two, who are 11 and 8 and that is so kind and thoughtful of you to think of it the way that you do!! I hope you have wonderful holidays yourself!
That's so sweet!
In the meantime, this month a relative gave me some 'fall-back' money to put in my anemic, terminally-ill little bank account.

In the meantime, I'm still looking for something that pays a little more realistically than MT. This business is a total disgrace, isn't it?


what's that foul smell? Ahh RECRUITER

I don't think they type at all... I smell management.

I smell management and, guess what?

We see right through what YOU are going too!  :)


Now, go away.  Please. 


short and sweet is the way to go (sm)
I would not offer a lot of details.  People leave jobs all the time, they are used to it.  Be professional and polite.  Keep it simple is my advice.
How sweet for you to be so enamoured with me! :)
.
such a sweet bust!

Sweet recruiter
... Way to go!!! You have my vote!! Who do you work for?
Bet your sweet a** the AC won't get it back in TAT
.
What a sweet post :-)
Thank you for your kind words, Irish. May you and your loved ones have a blessed and healthy 2009! :-)
short and sweet

They stink.  They send a ton to offshore.  They rip off the MT.  They buy up small companies and then change all the rules eventually to be uniform with Transcend policies.  Just my opinion.


.09/.057 would be sweet, wouldn't it? i'd take that...
but not .04 for VR
I smell sour grapes. This is a lie. They do not oursource
I've been an at-home MT since 1990, and was in-house for 12 years before that.

Amphion is the BEST, MOST PROFESSIONAL, and FAIR company I've ever worked for.

Whoever is trying to make them look bad on here is lying, and I suspect it's one of the people from "another company" that DOES SUCK trying to bring down an honest reputable company because they're jealous that they don't have the character and professionalism that Amphion has.
i smell someone doggin for a referral ... not nice!
I work for them too, and albeit, a good company but not a bed of roses.  TONS of changes seem to be going on all the time ......... stop sniffin around for that 750 bucks. It's embarrassing.
Wake up and smell the coffee - dahhhhhh - NM

NM


I don't agree - you need to smell entire coffee pot

You don't know most men in this country...that would be a fact.....and in today's world, some of us prefer the foreign men, after decades of American ones.  It takes all kinds to make up an entire world and then an entire planet.


Live Globally, Dream Universally.....


You smell things? Give me a break! You
are really reading way too much into a simple post. I am in QA, and I do not work for the range I quoted. However, I know that many companies are now offering peanuts in the ranges I quoted, or lower with paying by the line. My friends are QA, and keep me updated with the insulting range of pay offers. Sorry, not an exec and not looking to lower anyone's anything! Stress out much?
Digital Transcription Services--I smell a rat??

I went ahead and applied for their little ortho job over there and was sent 6 test files, about 20+ minutes of dictation time total.  I said I would only do one file, but did anyone else get this?  I worry when i get things like this as a lot of people will use the testing to get the work done for free.


Thanks


What you smell is the own vindictive stink of your words.
No, I'm not GP.  Just don't like bullies.  Never did.  Never will.  Which is what you are.  Now, behave or I'll tell your mommie!
she's sweet as pie then spits like a cobra. RUN FAR AWAY.

meant sweet not sweek
nm
Yes, isn't that sweet? I feel all cozy now.....nm

Don't fall for the sweet talk.
The recruiter is the sweetest person in the world when trying to sucker you in, but will bite you in the back like a viper after a while.  The honeymoon phase was wonderful, but then they started changing all the terms that I had agreed to one by one, including a cut in pay.  She got really mean and nasty towards then end and I just quit.  I didn't need to be treated like that. 
Is breaking the law okay if it is a sweet deal? (nm)

I found a sweet job close to my home. sm
I am trying to work outside of my home.  I enjoyed my first day and I have my fingers crossed that it will work out.  It is not transcription though.  It is copy typing and I hope I can become good at it and fast.  I hate creeping along at a snail's pace.  I'm just used to flying on the keyboard.  Good luck everyone. 
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!)
Sweet...sounds like when I was in paramedic school
Blood drawing and vitals. I did all that in paramedic school. My MT training a few years ago was much more boring LOL.
True. It was demeaning and insulting. Tell me you didn't like my resume or that I smell bad..
Whatever... but don't tell me that I do not have experience.  What is with these people. If they are that unprofessional, we would feel blessed we received the kiss-off form letter LOL
Sweet Pete Bayou MT. Part of your responsibility as an MT
is to look up unfamiliar terminology, doctor's names, etc. and MAKE A NOTE OF IT, so you don't have to look it up again. All I can say is good luck with your career as an MT.
I once served frozen yogurt to Sandy Koufax. He was very sweet.
