I worked there quite a while, email me privately :)
Mixed up a little? (sm)
You complain about MTSO's wanting to tell you when to work and how they will pay you, which is pretty standard in this industry, but then you complain about companies not paying a decent wage and no raises - now hear this - as an IC, you have to be willing to work when the work is available, for the going rate, and there are no wages and certainly no raises. You trade wages and raises for the freedom of not being an employee. It's like when you hire a plumber (an IC) - you don't want them coming to fix your sink at 3 a.m. just because they couldn't sleep, do you? Do you hear them complaining about their wages and asking for a raise? No, it's a business. Try acting like a professional and quit whining.
Not mixed up...
It's not an IC thing here...you try to pay all MTs low wages, like what we were making 20 years ago! What are you saying, you pay your employees more than your ICs? WRONG! You pay as little as you can to everyone to make more $$ for yourself.
And by the way, it is EXTREMELY professional to want to be paid what our skill set is worth...why do you think plumbers make over $25 and hour!?
You must have this mixed up with

I know she has me mixed up and I sm
have told her several times. Obviously she doesn't have enough decency to admit she made a mistake. I guess they just like tearing people up. Sorry, but nobody raining on my parade today!!!!!!!
there have been mixed opinions
but I have had nothing but a great experience working here. I am very happy with them.
ExecuScribe: Archives mixed...sm
In response to my query on MT Stars, an Execuscribe recruiter contacted me inviting me to take their online test. I decided to search the archives for info about this company before going through the testing process. The result was mixed reactions, but mostly positive. Can anyone out there give me any current info on this company? For one thing, do they still require you to have a C-phone? Thanks in advance for your help!

You kinow, I get mixed messages with that.
There have been job applications that want to know every single thing, even what were you doing when you were unemployed, and they want the dates for that. I have had people complain when I didn't. However, I would rather put job experience pertaining to the position I am trying to get.
can be a bit confusing
I got the call, too. Mixed feelings here, too, but (sm)
my deep-seated distrust of all large companies of any type causes me to be worried. The call was upbeat, but I guess all we can do is wait and see what happens. This did kinda ruin my day, though.........
major mixed messages!
I think Larry must have left that one out in the conference I was in yesterday. It is hard to know if issues are purposefully being clouded (so we don't leave right away) or if like you say, they just really don't know. I would like know to the truth about whether CB, DJ, etc did only find out a few days ago. I guess ultimately it really doesn't matter does it.
Yes, and even if they are saying IC and SE are available, you are right, everything is followed with the foreseeable future disclaimer, or I think or I believe. I know with MQ, eventually SE gave way to IC which gave way to total employee no choice, stay or go. .... ....
Ya know what? I started doing VR about 5 years ago mixed with standard and
really did okay, bout 80% VR. Not sure what it is but lately the reports are coming in such a mess and such bad quality I am now not able to make a decent line count. I believe the push was on and they added facilities way too fast without everything being in place and lots of docs needing to learn how to use the durn thing and the system not used to the dictators (and with some dictators never will) that these accounts are now really so bad MY counts are even way less on VR than they were 5 years ago. The system has to have so many reports in to make the words come up correctly in future reports but is supposed to eventually get used to things. But like I said, way to big a rush and push for VR and I don't believe companies or the system were ready.
BUT the sellers of these systems who make quite the profit don't care and the MTSOs certainly don't care that we make such a pittance being paid by the line or if we can pay our bills and probably never will. As MTs, we are certainly taking the brunt of all of this. Pathetic. Wonder what they will all do when more and more MTs move on to a job they can make a living at and the hospitals tell them they can't offshore???
Your message is too mixed. Either you want to know the good, or you want to know the negative. Pick
one topic and maybe you'll get more informative responses. Otherwise, you're just setting the stage for more battle by your wording, and everyone is just tired of fighting right now.

CPHONE AND EXERCISE
Never Mind, I turned the connection upside down and it worked. Thanks, All Have a Great Saturday. I just got out of the hospital for five days HIGH BP STROKE, MIGRAINE, DUE TO YOU GUESSED IT- TYPING ALL THE TIME, AND NO EXERCISE. Did 30 minutes of power walking already. Not ready to go to the grave yet. I challenge everyone to do at least 30 minutes of some form of exercise a day. 
Cphone is Dictaphone
C phone is actually a Dictaphone. Looks like a telephone and you dial into the hospital clinic for dictation. Has a foot pedal and headset. Technology has been around forever and is still used by a lot of places. You can find them on ebay for about $100-200.
Cphone is fine
Actually Cphone works fine for me. No waiting for files to pull up and sound quality depends on where you live and type of phone service. I've used it for years and years and have no problems with it.
Any RAD MT at MDI-MD using Meditech and Cphone?
I use a c-phone on current hospital account - no problems with it and make good money using it. I have never used Meditech platform and would love to hear from any MDI-MD rad MT who has used this combination (Meditech with Cphone) on the pros and cons. They offered me a good per report rate so I am considering employment. Thanks.
