I just quit Medquist, hired by Etrans and quit them after one afternoon during the last two weeks!sm
Medquist made me buy a new computer to go to the "Docuscribe" system that was so much better than cottage. When I got there I took a real big pay cut to the tune of probably 30 to 40%. I was getting paid gross lines doing Cedars-Sinai operative reports. I asked for more per line and my supervisor just laughed and said you think were going to pay you $0.12 a line to just do operative reports! I said I quit. I should have said F you and your mamma too:( I had been there all together 7 years through buyouts. I am just sick of it all. I'm going to go sew my daughter a cute little Halloween outfit right now.
OSi coordinator
If OSi is so bad why don't some of you take those jobs and straighten it out?
The coordinator sent out email to her MTs. NM
.
I would say you can thank your account coordinator
She has seen that you will do them so girlfriend you will get them right and left. She doesn't care about your line count, just work and get the repors out!
Their is an account coordinator who still does it. Also
the folks in ops are real bad about calling when it is not appropriate.
I miss my coordinator...
Only coordinator that doesn't do it is
She should have stayed gone the first time, she is the best, she does not allow cherrypickers.
Are you talking about the coordinator who
could not get a job any place else because she has no experience? So, she asked for her job back at OSI! I hope that is not the one you are referring to, and surely it isn't. You might be talking about the one who was once a trainer??
OSi coordinator job opening again? Another
I too am an ex account coordinator
Agree with everything you said.
She was my coordinator....She was there as of Sunday...
thanking us all for the hard work with TAT! I had my last day thank goodness, my head was spinning from the revolving door of ACs, TLs, etc!

Coordinator Position - Good/Bad (SM)
Was just offered a workflow coordinator position and am wondering if this would be a good move. Pay would be about what I make in an average month of MTing. Anyone been there/done that with reference to this type of job?? Any input would be much appreciated.
What makes a great coordinator?
I was wondering what makes a good coordinator? Like, what did she do that was different from the others? I've thought about trying to advance (not at OSi), and I'd like to be the kind of person that people say these kinds of things about? What did she do to make you look forward to coming to work?
Another coordinator bite the dust at OSi?
If you do not have a lead, then the coordinator is in charge. sm
You can call the office (someone is either there or gets the messages and returns calls) or email or call the person who trained you. There is someone in charge of every account, even if not an official lead if the account is new.
Yet another OSi coordinator bites the dust...
I'm tellin ya, the turnover for those positions sure makes it seem like the perfect dream job eh?
Another coordinator bites the dust at OSi
There seems to be a lot of turnover with coordinators there. The one that just left was great.
Wonder if that's why a coordinator recently left abruptly
That happened with a day or two notice, and the leads were dumped with no notice at all. Wonder if she knew what was going down or what is about to go down and decided to leave because of it?
I told the coordinator about it long ago, and she didn't have a problem with it. sm
As you said, though, the new handbooks are coming out, so we'll see. I would think that would be a tough rule to enforce. I have worked 2 jobs almost all of my life. What I do on my own time when I am off the clock is my business as long as it is not in direct conflict with my full-time position. That's just my thought, though .....
Perhaps you all should quit (sm)
talking to "Sandy" since she can't spell the name of her own city, she probably isn't "Sandy" after all!
Just quit
I originally told them I wanted to try them out part time for 2 weeks and they agreed but weren't happy about it. I decided what the heck, I'd try FT. For the first FIVE days I had ONE report per day. They kept telling me they couldn't give me a backup until I was off QA, and couldn't get off QA until I had done enough reports!! Lose-lose situation there.
The QA was ridiculous, should have known since the head QA person was from Edix. I had a report that had many many physician errors, illness denied in one spot, added in others. I marked them all for QA and when I got it back, they said they have no way of knowing what's correct so they just put them on through!!! They did find the time however to mark the word "an" that I had put to make the sentence correct as being WRONG, even though the account was not verbatim. I had 2 other QAs come back with errors that I documented to the super that I was right about and they were changed, but all this trouble and I only did 6 reports? I shudder to think what it would be like IF they had any work!!
Quit
Sorry, but there's no other way. Been there, done that. Unfortunately, some QA people get their jollies by terrorizing other people just because they can.
I quit!
Etransplus is all about the numbers, not keeping their MTs in work. If you continue to work for them, you must have a secondary job.
Did you quit yet?
There are companies out there hiring right now even though it's right before Christmas. I had three job offers in one day after leaving. Life's too short to be frustrated.
Believe me, do not quit your other job.
A is the worst place to work
Here is what I would do. I would quit. If you know sm
anyone at Spheris who you have worked with or under that would give you a reference, just use that person as a reference. It is common knowledge that these huge companies could not tell anyone anything about a person who has worked for them. I know one girl who worked for MQ and had been working there for years and applied for a home loan and they told the mortgage company she did not work there!
Point is--figure out who from the company you can use as a reference and use it IF you want to mention you worked for them at all.
Second, unemployment benefits usually have some sort of waiting period and usually you have to be constantly seeking a job during the time you are not employed. It is not worth the hassle. In this business of MT, you can certainly find another job right away or within a week or two. It might not be the amount of money--heck, it could be better! Bottom line is, quit, tell them bye, and move on. Forget about the unemployment and get back to work as soon as possible. These states want you to jump through hoops for that little bit you would most likely collect in unemployment. I know my state has it that you can apply online now and do not have to go into the unemployment office, but many of the unemployment offices are so degrading that you don't want to go there at all.
With all the MT companies out there, you WILL find another job. Go the easy route for yourself and don't put yourself through this degrading process. Get yourself back to work and earning your money and forget about Spheris.
DON'T Quit!!!!
If your could not make line count because you were not qualified, that is their human relations department screw up, they should have verified that you were qualified. If they did, and you were, which I would assume is true because they hired you, I would let them fire me because if they do contest you application for unemployment insurance, they may be made to prove that you are in fact in the minority of their employess who do not make line count, and I think it can be proven that most of the MTs hired do not make line count at these coumpanies for a variety of reasons, many of which have nothing to do with the MT. For instance, SOUND QUALITY OF WORK YOU RECEIVE, TECH SUPPORT IN A TIMELY FASHION, MORE THAN THE USUAL NUMBER OF ESLs, NOT USER-FRIENDLY WORK PLATFORM, POOR TRAINING ON THEIR PART. Unemployment is usually only refused for people who Willfully cause themselves to be fired, not for those who actually tried. Remember, it was their job to determine if you were qualified, unless you lied to them, which is a whole new ball game. In any case, a reference from a company you worked at for four months is worthless, so let them fire you and take your chances. But do offer to try harder and ask for their help in making a go of it, it will look good if they fire you anyway, and document and print emails that are pertinent to your case. Connect a printer to your PC if you do not already have one and print all their emails. Hope this helps. Good luck.
Does anybody know who was let go or quit?
x
One day for me too. I also quit....
because of poor communication. Never answered my QA questions or sent any feedback to me. I realize no news is good news but good grief, at least answer my questions.
no one said they were going to quit
yet either. You actually do not seem either intelligent or rational as you obviously refuse to see that there are issues and believe that if you just pump out the work that you will be okay, which is very naive as someone else had posted. You also need to remember that I am sure that a lot of other MTs have heard somewhat of the same song and dance at other companies and have seen what happened. There comes a point sometimes when things walk like a duck, if you will, that you do question seriously whether it is going to be duck.
Anyone who quit, where did you go?
If you found a good company, can you please let me know where you went! I need to get out of here! Thanks a lot!
Never quit one job until you are sure of the second job. Do them
p
Then don’t quit your day job, I get
4 cents per line for VR.
Just quit there sm
Management is severely lacking.
Trainer was an idiot (but at least she didnt cuss all the way thru the exam like Cbay's trainer did)
They lost the account I was on.
EXACTLY WHY I QUIT OSI!!
I worked third shift and got nothing but very old crap because of cherrypicking by team lead to her favorites. Not only were the age of the jobs obvious but another MT who quit for personal reasons told me that she used to get the best jobs from the team lead. Team leads on OSi are completely worthless for the most part. They get a salary for doing nothing except doling out gravy jobs.
So you quit without having another job?
There are always possibilities but I for one could not afford to just quit without having another job. I don't know your situation though but am happy for you to be relieved. Some of the working conditions make me crazy sometimes but I am overall happy where I am though it is not perfect by any means.
I'd try them out before I quit my other job.
nuff said
If you already have another job just quit OSI
/
Quit the job you have now
BTW: When I said let us know when you quit this one, I meant the one you hate right now... not Transcend.
also PS: I reread my post, I used the word then too much! I am really a transcriptonist, I want to go back and edit my posts to make it BOS compliant! LOL. Have a great day.
IME & IMO - don't quit your other job until you (sm)
get up and running with Keystrokes, or any MTSO, especially this time of year, when it tends to be slow. It may take you a week or so to get work, and remember there is a two-week delay in getting your check; for example, for the PP ending 12/15, we don't get paid until 1/1.
Hope this helps!
Quit OSI, still no W2
This doesn't answer your question. Sorry.
Try it while still with job#1. Never quit one job until
x
Are you going to quit?
I was just wonder if you are going to quit since VR is not your thing? I wouldn't work for pennies either.
She quit
She said that she started running out of work and had to work too many extra hours in order to get her line count.
You SHOULD quit - - - $18/hr. is too low for
(Should be closer to $24-25.)
Don't quit your job for them. Whenever they get new
accounts they hire more MTs than is anticipated, so until people get fed up with no work and quit and those who couldn't handle the work leave (voluntarily or involuntarily) there will not be FT work.
YOG for me too. I quit the day MQ took over. sm
I made good money, had good benefits, and they left me alone to do my job. The Cottage program was easy to use. Lots of pluses.
How to Quit?
My question is: How would you let your present employer know you're quitting? Would you just send an e-mail explaining the situation, or would you call?
I was offered jobs at two different companies and decided to try them both out. One started before the other. The first job that I have been doing for only a short time (about a week) did not have enough work the first day in the account they put me on for me to train. Nothing has improved and today I started full-time at the second company. I like the account very much, which appears to have plentiful work, and I have a very good feeling about it. I thought about keeping the first company as a part-time option, but even that does not seem worth it, so I feel that I should just leave the first company completely. The QA person is very nice and has put a lot of time into helping me, but the work just is not there, and while I feel a bit guilty (since they said they could give me a second account), this lousy account would still be my primary - so what's the point? I want to leave in the nicest way possible, but I think they'll be angry no matter what I do. An e-mail seems so impersonal, but I'm afraid if I call and talk to the person I will need to speak with that person will give me a hard time on the telephone, maybe even try to convince me to stay, etc. I would welcome opinions on the best way to handle this. Thank you.
How to quit
I called my supervisor to let her know that my formal written resignation was coming. I thanked her for the opportunity of working for her and gave her three weeks' notice. Meanwhile I started working for the new company which, over the course of several months, consistently ran out of work. When it got to the point that I was afraid this was a pattern, I e-mailed my old supe and asked if she could use me part-time as a backup person and she said you betcha and took me back immediately. It never hurts to build bridges rather than burn them. Good luck!
Why not go for it. Just don't quit your
If you can, try to overlap the jobs. It can't hurt to give it a try. Work is work, and money is the only thing that will pay the bills. Not posts on a message board. Go for it, try it out, and you can always quit. Good luck!
