I know you were talking about an experience you had and giving good information but I had a really terrible day - my ripoff insurance in spite of raising my deductible also caused a huge hike in a medication cost and I was fit to be tied. So I really needed a laugh - your descriptive post, especially about the roaches possibly coming out of the keyboard just gave me a big laugh. I guess I'm glad I'm not the only one that gets utterly disgusted with things sometimes! P.S. I am from New Orleans originally and roaches rule there - big flying ones too!

It was fine! What I enjoyed was...
...that in one of the transcription reports I had my favorite doc on the whole planet dictating. I recognized his voice - what were the chances that that would happen? I live in an area with about 50,000 people, and the hospital he dictates for is about mid-size. It was nice to hear him again.
Wow, I actually enjoyed working there...
and never really had a problem with QA. I was off of QA after a week (after asking them if I was ready and thought I should be off), and switched from 8 to 9 per line, and had made really good money with the overflow ER account. The only time I ever really heard anything back from QA was when I had a blank and needed feedback. I did notice, though, that the QA seemed to change from when I first was there, going from just checking your blank word to going to looking at the whole report and finding things, so I do think QA person changed. I normally didn't have blanks so really didn't hear anything from them. The owner bent over backwards to make me happy.
The work started to slow down and couldn't really stay because of that. They did have their lulls, but this one was really lasting long and I needed the money as it was my only full-time job. I had no problem with giving my 2-week schedule, that was totally fine.
All this other stuff here is so strange to me. And I hate picky QA people but didn't seem to have that problem there. I really hated leaving but needed to and am now happy at another company as an employee.
They are a nice place to work for, so I would give them a chance. I think if you prove you're a good MT, they would love to have you. They acknowledge you at holidays also! :-)
I had a contact tell me they really enjoyed working there, but
s
I could have selected a better word than enjoyed
No, this was no meant to be smart alecky at all. I meant, they responded to your death in the family sympathetically and THIS touched you (not sure how else a company would respond any differently) Sorry I caused you grief by your misinterpretation of my post. Was not meant that way at all.
The response was meant just as I said, you really did not WORK for the company per se, so I did not feel it was a true experience, thus a true recommendation of any company.
But, I am surprised you can PICK your own speciality. What happens with me is they see my experience and just shove it all down my throat which can be good AND bad.
I have read that, but wonder if anyone has enjoyed their work experience or.....
if anyone had any problems with the VNC connection as far as privacy issues??? Everything else seems great??
I've always enjoyed your posts fatcat
If you were cooking, I'd certainly come to eat! I'm sorry to hear that it's so hard right now. I agree, you have always been the MDI diplomat, always had great things to say about the company, defended their honor over and over. I've been reading this board for years and you are one that I've always taken the time to read, even when it didn't especially relate to anything I needed to know personally.
I hope things start looking up, for you, for all of us.
My post should say the post above not the post below, Sheryl's post to be specific. nm

It's a "fishing" post. Same post a few days ago with numerous errors

Read Spherson's post below, who admits, in the post, they do pay it.

Peachy, your post is interesting, but my post now is irrelevent but
A few weeks ago I went to my clinic where they had recently implemented EHR or EMR, whichever you call it, and the doctor's back was to me the whole time he and I conversed because his nose was stuck in his laptop. To me, it felt a little more impersonal, but I understand he was doing what he had to do, but it seems like the bedside manner may go to the wayside if the doctors can't even look at you when they are asking you questions or you are speaking to him/her. I know this is relevant to your original post, but just an interesting fact that I had not anticipated. Anyone else experience this?
This is why I NEVER post my cpl. I'll post the range of
what the company pays, but NEVER what I make. I know that I make more than probably 70% of the people there, because they know I produce a client ready report and that I can do anything they throw at me. We don't have levels, but I guess if we did I'd be at the highest level. Telling how much you make isn't so bad, but when people know what company you work for and then what you make that isn't a good combination. The ONLY people I have ever discussed what I make with, are my husband and my MTSO owner. Talking about your salary/pay is enough to get your fired in lots of companies.

One post was another "run" type of post and the
the recruiter. Once you are in with the company, the recruiter has nothing to do with you or your job. I want specifics about problems with THE JOB, not the recruiter. Specifics such as no or late checks, line counts being messed up, no work, taking bennies away with no explanation. Things that matter, not the recruiter.
everytime you post, where ever you post
unless you go through an anonymizer, your IP address can be traced back to you, even through the guises of this web site. There are web sites you can find on the internet to do this for you, or if you are 18 years old and like to hack, it's an easy enough thing to do.
I post a pay range, DOE; however, most don't post..
I wish some MTs would start thinking about the business aspect of the industry. For example, this is a public site, so go to Google or another search engine and type [the co's name] and per line, and voila! now everyone knows how much you pay your MTs.
Post removed, you can re-post.

No, after I read a followup yesterday that said there were apologies and answered Michelle, I realized that and someone said to just get back to work and they were right.. even an apology was too much, plus it would look like I was just tagging along after JMO, which is what you are accusing me of now.
I just didn't understand where the posts went, it was odd, and I wanted to reiterate some things (the point I mentioned earlier, about seeing BOTH sides), but I see it really doesn't matter WHAT I say, you've already made up your mind about me and my motivations without even knowing me. Why am I explaining myself to you? I dunno.
It doesn't matter. Good luck to you and don't worry, God will take care of/deal with me, and I ask him to bless you all too.:)

Would you please e-mail me at jcarros213@aol.com. I "really" need information.

WHY DOES MY POST
On Greenlight Transcription keep getting erased?! 
WHY DOES MY POST??
mine got erased too..I asked a question about eTransPlus and now it's gone???
Above post
Oh my.....I didn't know Wal-Mart had "greaters". I thought they were greeters! I am sure they are hiring though so you should do well there.
Why don't you sign your posts? Are you also the one that said SoftScript is the worst? Wow....there a lot of worsts out there. Guess we will all starve.
Will you post when you do?
Are you a SS transcriptionist? Will you post your acknowledgement of e-mail?
It gives YOU something to post about right?!
What else would you post about?! LOL
I like your post!!

To Can't Say: Regarding your post below about
Can you say which recruiter told you that Transcend was buying MQ?
Where did you see this post?
asdf
If you post their name they probably won't get any
resumes. This way they'll probably get a few, but hopefully the MTs will be wise enough to turn them down.
Another good reason not to respond to a blind ad is that it could be the company you are currently working for - or you were working for (LOL).
I appreciate your post...perhaps I used....sm
the wrong word of undercutting, but when I became an MTSO 9+ years ago......a national was charging 13-18 cpl to the client and so I went ONE cent below that, 12 CPL.....and I get the work, have had clients for all this time...and I work for a national part-time....
Thank you for taking the time to type all that....much appreciated!! 
And you might want to post
your message in reply to the correct message. I am not oops.
I have only posted one message in response to this person.
Anyone could post on here and say they are from
Whose to say that poster posing as KS Team Leader or such is not someone specifically out to do KS harm?
For crying out loud, people -- just someone with a mean streak and nothing to do can get on here and cause harm. And the reason they can cause it is because most people on here will believe any post they read.
Now THAT is sad.
sorry about my post above, was

I think they are trying not to post here except
Still doesn't make any sense at all to come to a public forum and ask these kinds of questions.
I'd be reluctant to hire someone who had no more IQ than to do that.
PS: Just saw the post below, anyone do QA for them?

Thank you for this post!
Your post is 100% correct--disgraceful disrespect for the MT whose skill, experience, and expertise keep transcription companies in business! Unbelievable attitude. Thanks for your post--it is 100% right on!
PS to above post, sm
The accounts are teaching hospitals, acute care, and clinics etc. A mix of ESLs and non-ESLs. Not easy unless you really know your stuff, but good accounts. Good luck.
See my post below -
My experience was different but also bad!
Where's your post?
See post below from 9/27
titled 'Is this weird' - I was talking about Shapin. That may just have been my experience though.
Post the hos name here, someone may be able to tell you where it went.

Please see my post
That line rate for VR is not good. Plus they do not pay any shift differential or incentive pay. VR at 4+ cents per line plus no differential or incentive is pretty rock bottom.
There is a post further down saying they do not pay
I do not have personal experience with them however.
