separate account for taxes
I actually set up a separate account and deposit 35% of each check into that account to pay for taxes... it's the Feds, 14% for social security, state, and local at least for me in the state of PA. File quarterly to avoid any penalty....
Open RadNet first and then open IT. Then the up Arrow and highlight to link, then OK.

Better to be safe than sorry
put a note next to your current employer's name or supervisor that they are only to be contacted if negotiations with you get serious. I think most employers in the MT business can appreciate that. It can happen that if your supe thinks you are going to be leaving soon that you may find little to no work is made available to you. You are being honest and they will appreciate and respect that. Good luck!
Nothing seems to be safe any more.
Tell that to the people who worked for Enron and see what they tell you. Tell it to those of us who had MQ stock that was worth nada. Ask the good Senator Frist with his HCA stock and insider trading. I don't trust a living soul in that respect these days.
Better safe
I think you are right. I cannot go through one of these financial roller coasters again. What concerns me is we still do not know why the work was so low, so I am afraid it could happen again. I really do like MDI but I am going to keep my side gig just in case. It beats having hot dogs each night for dinner! I am hoping that whatever the problem was with MDI, it is resolved. We can only hope. None of my e-mails were answered and because I became so fearful for my income, I took on the second job. I am hoping it will work out all right for everyone.
Also, just to be on the safe side....
(going along with what MTing said) when you go to the post office- get the return receipt, but also to be sure to do delivery confirmation so that you can track the order and make sure that it gets delivered and/or request a signature at delivery...that way the company actually has to sign when the package is received by them from the USPS. Both of these will prevent any excuses as to them saying that they never received it back. Better safe than sorry!
HR 1653 Safe ID Act
I did some research on this and it was actually proposed back in 2005, so it's been sitting on the backburner for quite some time. I did email my Congressman and Representative about it, but since no one has re-introduced it, it's not coming up for a vote anytime soon. Maybe if we ALL get on the computer and the phone to our Congressmen and Represetatives, it will come back around for a vote again. So please, take this very seriously - we can complain about our jobs going to India or we can do something about it!!!!!
Yes, it's a Safe Harbor 401k
so the company's contributions are fully vested when made.
Thanks. Glad your niece was safe. sm
I've heard similar stories about 9/11 where people were saved because they were late for some reason or another. At the time, it seemed like a bad thing, but it actually saved their lives.
It's not you. It's the Universe keeping you safe
My mom always said, If it's for you, you will get it. There is something better right around the corner. Good luck to you!
As youself, "Am I safe from losing my job NOW?"
how far do you think that 6-10 cpl is going to get you 5 years from now?
It is a good place to be. Safe. Reliable. Honest.
Once an MT's abilities are proven, MDI is extremely loyal. In return the MT is loyal. The way a mutually beneficial business relationship should be.
How fast would this happen, would we be safe from losing our jobs
completely to India, now that they are all trained and certified by the former AAMT
So is MDI-MD separate from MDI-FL?
thanks again for this info!
Is it safe to ask a company after one year for a raise? Do companies give raises?
 Curious
MDI is a separate company..
In terms of things changing at the whim of Transcend upper management, Liz is part of Transcend upper management. As founder of MDI, she has a major part of the final say in any decisions made.
Two separate companies - nm

So 5 separate MTs have not been paid?
Am I counting these separate posters correctly?
Thanks for starting this thread, 'Fair Warning.' This is definitely something everyone needs to be aware of.
Best wishes and good luck to all of you who were stiffed by Landmark. I hope you're all taking whatever action necessary to collect what is rightfully (and legally) due to you!
There has been a separate board for several days, but sm
you can't see it in the left hand column when you are on the Main Board. I usually go to the Company Board, then the MQ board is listed underneath the company board to the left hand side of your screen. 
Not really. Podiatry is a separate entity IMO
They're even a DPM instead of an MD most times.
Can you do a C&P of these into a separate folder so they will always be handy for you? nm
:+
I certainly hope they were two separate positions.

Other job board is separate from reg. message

they will remain 2 separate entities
cbay and MQ. As far as buying them out, Cbay has bought 70% shares from Phillips Electronics who originally had the interest of stocks. Cbay was only able to do this through 2 huge financial corporations one located in UK and the other in the US. we will remain under the financial guidance of cbay holdings who is currently going through changes in management.
I have steady work and see my primary work steadily throughout the day with 2 other accounts. The pay could be better since they reduced the rate when doing ASR work but it is still higher than other companies pay for ASR. You have to speak up for yourself when you feel you deserve a raise. They won't come to you so make sure you go to them when you feel its time. I try to stay positive and throughout the major changes which started about 2 years ago I have remained here when I thought I would not last and there were always people doubting they would not last. I even went to work for another company and decided to go back to MQ. Maybe it was not the right fit but it takes time finding the right one and I still might explore other opportunities but I have gained so much experience here as far as medical transcription is concerned.
Hope this helps a lot. good luck to you.
I wonder if referring to 2 separate post?s
I disagree, if a job is posted there is no reason not to give out the lowest to highest rate offer for the advertised position They know what they will offer FOR THE POSITION.
happens in other posted jobs all the time -- all the time, it is listed on the job opening. This saves both sides time
why not, only to find out some low rate you would not have bothered with, sent in a resume, tested for or interviewed for. I forgot one time -- forgot to PRE- check it out, got to interview and it was 7.5. What a waste (both sides) actually, but more for the MT wasted a lot of time.
Dental and vision are separate and extra. sm
I don't know how much, though, because I tossed the info on it as the provider list for the dental was SO LIMITED it wasn't even worth it, I couldn't get any dentist I wanted.
Naaa, can put it on one sheet but you'll have a separate
column(s) for ASR figures.
It's a separate company with different ways of doing things
Transcend is a public company and owned by shareholders, and MDI is a major shareholder.
I have been at MDI for several years and I have not noticed any change in the way it is run.
SoftScript has a separate path division.
But they don't seem to have many openings and when they do, they are offered to the MTs already there.
Transcription South and TSI are 2 separate companies
nm
ShortHand is a separate program you buy. ESP is what comes within ExText. nm

& send separate checks for OT after MT reminds them

The above poster wasn't me. I'm the LOL from above. Two separate posters - haha

Webmedx has 6 paid holidays a year, separate from PTO, for full time employees.
x
if you are open to another
company that hires part-time and pays PTO (with PT), e/m me.
Don't be so down on yourself. When that even better job comes open...sm
you'll be ready. No biggie, and don't let the meanies get to you. We all make mistakes, no one is perfect.
She did say she would call you when the next job came open. In the meantime, maybe call her back and ask her to make sure she calls your land line as it is the one you use most.
It won't open for me either.
x
Are your eyes open?
Do you work for OSi? If not, quit bashing them. If so, why haven't you secured another position due to your unhappiness?
why they keep amherst open
amherst office runs all of the east coast offices. So you are probably safe if you tell HR you want to be managed by the west coast team. I think they are much nices to their MTs
keep your ears open
things are being restructured,it will most likely affect your office.
Still cannot open the files
The people at Type Right mentioned that they use Gear Player and that is what I use and I still cannot open up the files. I called technical support and they could not figure it out either. They said the files were corrupted. Sounds like something strange is going on if the rest of the people cannot open up the files either. I think I better pass on this company!
they have my open position at TTS
I QUIT! LOL
here's an open post for you
you are an idiot
No, I mean 60 positions open
and available for filling. Even if she meant 16, that is quite a bit. Again, more information available upon (E-mail) request.
keep your options open
nm
open letter
You could not said it any better.!!!!
The HR is not open on weekends nm
nm
go open your own company and sm
maybe then you can give all your profits to the MTs. NOT! I bet you would be like any other business owner, keep the profits. That is the point of having your own business!
Okay, lets get something in the open. (sm)
I am so not stressing about it. It was a random question because I have been lied to in the past about having to take a pay cut. Was it really a true need or a true greed?
Lets not fight about. There is nothing wrong with wondering.
Always keep an open mind, but...
Been here, done this several times, none have resulted in mutual benefit. My position, Transcend has much to prove.
P.
I always keep an open mind
I kept an open mind when the company I worked for (ddi, Inc) sold out to the Q. It was fine for a couple of years and then......well, I wasn't there anymore, need I say more?
