No sour grapes here...
Not to be disrespectful, but you must have worked for them when it was ran w/o Transcend...because it changed, believe me. Since I have been there, they have gone through at least four acct. mgrs. for their radiology. And I have sent, on several accounts, documented proof, with times of dictation, release, assignment, etc., and nothing was ever done. And as far as my performance, the only reason I am still with MDI is because of my pay, which reflects my experience and the fact that I have yet to have a report rejected or sent back for an error...I assure you there is no mud slinging here. I have documentation to back up every accusation made. I do not work on the account Rhonda is currently working because I refuse to work w/ her, not because I was booted, as you put. As far as the misery goes, it DID move on--to other accounts where I did not have to work w/ RJ.
No sour grapes here???
Having been the administrator of one of the largest radiology transcription programs on the east coast, I am having trouble understanding why you and your husband, with such a demonstrative level of professionalism and success in your area of expertise would be so put off by someone simply expressing their happiness with their work. Doesn't seem to make sense in my experience. Happy,successful people normally seek out and support happy and successful people. Toxic people, on the other hand, tend to seek out and support toxic people. Good luck in that life long endeavor.
Re: Sour grapes
That was a very interesting post by Mr. Rooster. I couldn't agree more.
Stop being a cry baby and grow up. Your anonymous post was seriously undermining and nasty and your complaints have fallen on deaf ears for a reason. My guess is they are inaccurate. You mention you have documentation, etc. It is obvious, your complaints are not credible.
Sour grapes, about having a better job?
Maybe I do not get your drift, but we all came out from under a thumb held so tightly we could hardly breathe to go on to better jobs, no constant harassment, no one breathing down our necks, no changing of the rules day after day, no picky-picky about the work, tell me exactly where the sour grapes come in because I have no clue as to what you are talking about...
Could this be sour grapes? h-m-m-m

Perhaps it's sour grapes?
I am a TL at Transcend and know a little history about some of the MLS listed in this thread. Transcend is a great company run by people who want to do right by their employees and their customers. Applicants, please consider that these MLS making posts had a role in their demise with the company. There are always two sides to every story.
Sour grapes?
Did you have a high percentage of reports going to QA? If not, then you can intelligently guess what the lines would be. This is one of the most fair-minded and supportive services I've ever worked for, and I've worked for many of the services out there.
Sounds to me like sour grapes because you can't cut it. I'm
They pay a diffential for more difficult accounts. I haven't seen any junk yet. Double dipping? What do you mean by that? What's your definition of double-dipping?
sounds like sour grapes to me

Sounds like sour grapes. nm

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.
Why dont you just lay off. Sour grapes because you weren't hired?
Sounds like it to me.
People make a lot of stuff up (sour grapes?)

No sour grapes. They DO outsource to Trinidad. Openly on the net. Research it and you will see.

Don't understand your logic....Sour grapes = unprofessionalism, incompetence, outsourcing
A true professional MT will refuse to work under such conditions.
She's telling the truth about this one. It is
terrible, no work, system is out of order a few times a day, and they just hire more and more people when the accounts have no work on them.
Well, they are not telling the truth! sm
I was offered an incentive package to stay with them and that was on eScription! I turned it down and left anyway. Prefer working for Americans!
They can't sue you for telling the truth...nm
nm
Now, why is that? Because I am telling the truth?..sm
Do you prefer that I tell lies and be a hypocrite? Isn't it better to realize facts and be proactive?
It does not help to put one's head into the sand, clinging to the past and lying to oneself.
It does not help to close one's eyes. cover one's ears, keep quiet and ignore change. It will be a bad awakening.
And this does not only apply to MTing.
Thanks for telling the truth and for explaining
in my post above.
Yes, I knew going in that I wouldn't get any PTO for a year. I made the mistake of thinking in terms of "vacation," never thinking I'd need it as backup for all the system problems.
And, yes, I knew the problem wasn't the sound card, and I'm very glad that others are backing me up on this, acknowledging that it's a company-wide problem with the platform. It's not always all the MT's fault.
I was only trying to tell the poster to think long and hard. Accepting a new job is a big decision to make.
Not defensive, just telling the truth.
I'm not the owner. I'm an employee. And if it appears that I'm touchy, it's because I know for a fact that one of TC's ex-employees has done nothing but trash the company, to the point where I had to stop communicating with her because I was tired of hearing non-stop negativity, when she didn't even work there any more. Maybe you're not that person; maybe you are.
Either way, it's a good, solid company, and potential employees shouldn't be scared away by negative posts concerning it.
Have a nice day.
Obviously, they're telling the truth.
You're proving them right. Posting responses like the ones you are to posters on a board (even the ones who nicely say they don't like the company) absolutely prove how bad the place is and that you probably ARE management, as any MT would simply say they disagree and why, not try to attack a person's whole integrity just because they don't like a company.
what is cynical about telling the truth sm
about the MT business? If you don't like it then don't read it. you babies will get it one of these days. But by then any jobs that are left for Americans are going to be taken over by EXPERIENCED MTs who don't gripe and complain about everything.
Sure thing...M.M. Hate to trash a person personally but the truth is the truth. nm

or they know the truth and the truth hurts. NM

Don't let this sour you on this profession. sm
There are great companies out there and horrible ones. What was horrible for you might be a good fit for someone else.
Grapes of Wrath
Read Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck. I realize today I just became a dustbowl evicted - farm worker. Lets all pick peaches while there are peaches to pick, then move on down the road in our jalopies.
Grapes of Wrath, 1940.....sm
Grapes of Wrath' 1940
Excerpt
'.....The family settles in a shack and picks peaches for five cents a box, earning barely enough to feed the family......'
has anyone else get late paychecks from Meridian or is the negative just from one sour pus
I really would like to know before accepting a position with them.
I would like someone besides the poster from below to answer please.
Love, love, love TransTech! Not overhiring, just growing like crazy!

as you can see, no one else is telling theirs either-sm
and they don't want anybody jumping on their bandwagon's either. They were very quick to mention who they had bad experiences with, but no one is telling who they are happy with, other than for the sarcastic MQ and Diskriter.
You just don't know - I'm telling you ..........
they'll hate it.
keep telling yourself that
over and over until you really believe it; say it like a mantra. There is nothing wrong with talking about what is going on as this affects current MTs and could potentially affect many other MTs. I am willing to keep an open mind as well as it seems others who have posted are as well; however, one cannot just look at one side of the story. There are questionable things.
She might be telling it like it is but...
I am sure there is a much more polite way of saying it. I know I wouldnt appreciate be spoken to in that manner.
Always telling us at OSI they will do this
NM
? Why are you telling us this?
I mean, good luck. I just do not understand your attitude and why you are making this huge statement about your big decision to stay and telling us when you plan to work, etc.
Maybe you are directing this to someone in particular and I didn't catch it.
Thanks for telling me how to do this.
I do not have much experience doing zipped files. Anyway I will try what you said. Sounds easy enough. Again thank you.
Right. Just keep on telling yourself
Repeat it over and over again. I'm sure you can convince yourself with a little practice.
Why are they telling you they will be out
I would refer all of these to the supervisor. This is not part of your job.
But telling somebody to look for another job
is more or less avoiding to confront the issue all together, and throw out the bath with the child in it.
Telling you it was not a lie
Well, there is an old saying that if certain people's lips are moving, you know they are lying.....Just sayin'. If the shoe fits, wear it and if not, it plain old don't fit.
would you mind telling me (sm)
this Cindy-person's last name. You can E/M me if you want, in fact, I'd prefer it that way. I worked for a Psycho Maniac named Cindy before, and wonder if they're the same person!
gapeachxx@yahoo.com...thanks a bunch!
Not to flame but telling me I don't
Thank you for mentioning things in your latest post that you left out of your first. See how easily one can jump to conclusions?
For what it is worth, I ran my own daycare for 10 years. I know EXACTLY what it is like to be the one responsible for every aspect of running a business day in and day out, when people don't show up or go to lunch and don't come back, having to meet laws from varies state agencies that are contrary to one another and smile the whole time. I've started work at 5 in the morning and finished at 9 at night (while trying to raise my own two young children). I know what it is like to cook for 95 kids EVERY day for a year because I couldn't keep good help. I know that until I converted all my private investment into a nonprofit organization, I could not achieve the success with my business that I was able to do. Imagine working for 10 years and having NOTHING left of it but a good reputation, no retirement plan, no assests, nada, because the effects you left on people and the benefits you offered were worth all of it. Would you be willing to do that? Not many would, I bet.
When you want to yell at me some more and show your true colors, you will turn away the good MTs whom you were trying to entice in your original post. See how easy it was to fly off the handle.
I do wish your business well, but I stand by what I said. I save you money by working from home and doing what I do. Every year I get devalued by the onslaught of forces I cannot control. If you want to toot your own horn, I would suggest a marketing consultation next time.
Peace.
Are you telling me that they only have the one account?
xx
Good for you for telling it like it is (sm)
I work for a smaller MT company who, like the employer of the previous poster, seems to want to keep their MTs in the dark about what's going on behind the scenes. However, reading between the lines and according to the grapevine our company recently was apparently outsourcing some work to the Philippines, and apparently, when the hospital found out, they were livid! The MTs were also upset, as this was one of our best accounts, the kind that make the other slog work worthwhile - and they handed it over to the Philippines...well, recently, we all of a sudden had a whole lot of this account's work available once again - my guess is, no more Philippines! I hope this means the hospital issued an ultimatum - and this means they appreciate our work and understand that you get what you pay for.
moving on is telling it like it is
I too have had horrible experiences. I think we both were previously working for the same company, a company highly recommended on this board. It was a huge disappointment as far as lines. It was impossible, too many foreign dictators and something funny going on with the line count. You wrote me and told me about Keystrokes. As well, I read your many posts about KS. I took a chance with your advice and accepted a job with them. You were speaking the truth and not just another recruiter. Thank you so much for recommending them and posting your experience with them:)
You are actually in the "I'm telling" mood?
You're going to tell? What do they care? They should know where they stand on this board... Why do you think they keep hiring from here?
I would say Monday should be the telling SM
day. If there is no pay and no indication of when you'll be paid, I'd get out of there FAST and also post the name of the company. They've had plenty of time to correct their supposed **error*** cough...with the payroll company.
Would you mind telling me....
where you've gone. I, too, work for MQ as a flex PT, but would LOVE to get out. I used to be a SE too! All these changes are making me nuts, but I've been with them for 13 years now, and I'm afraid to make that move. I have 4 kids at home, and would love to have that scheduling flexibility! Feel free to email me if you want! Thanks for your help!
keep telling yourself that while I tell you a story
Main job $23/h plus incentive (which is very easy to make). Full benes. 20 weeks PTO/yr.
Second job REAL IC 11 cpl including headers/spaces.
So go ahead and laugh your way to the bank while I strut down to the credit union, which by the way, is better than a bank LOL
