add some good ol MT insight into this issue, and maybe she'll dig deeper and see the WHOLE picture and its affect on the MT, on the medical record, the country, etc, and write further about the issues. I did.

You are not the author of the other post. (SM)
Your ISP isn't anywhere close to it. There is nothing wrong with the post and it will stand unless the author (verifiably) requests for it to be removed.

The author sounds VERY Indian or thereabouts to me.

why do all of these articles
say the average MT is 52?? I am a 27-year-old MT, having been an MT now for 7-1/2 years and I love what I do. I am so tired of hearing this line of crap for justifying work going to India. I know not too long ago we just had a survey of ages of MTs on this board and I saw a lot of MTs in my age range. Why don't these companies just be honest and say they want to make more money instead of making this fact up? It is this line of thinking that is pushing people in my age range not only out of MT, but a lot of professions and I am getting sick of it.
Do you know of new articles?
I am researching this. I did not realize that was old stuff. Please, if you have any information or links in this regard please send them along.
Thanks!
I have written articles. Where do you submit?
I am just getting started in following a lifelong desire to write. Would like to submit to magazines, and journals. Thanks!
Please answer this. How do you explain in the articles posted BY Transcend then
the statements saying they currently offshore 19% and I believe it said the goal was to get to 35% by the end of 2009, as well as it mentioning that they plan to offshore more in the future, that it is their GOAL. There was also a statement in the article that said something to the effect that with VR they could produce as much work with fewer MTs and so on, so clearly that helps put MTs out of a job. The offshoring and the plan to not only continue but INCREASE their offshoring is my major concern. I just cannot support that. It does not at ALL sound like it's an occasional or last resort type of thing if it is their PLAN to offshore increasingly greater amounts of work.

Also, in the conference call Larry said it was 11%-12%. The Transcend article said 19%. Could he really be off by nearly 10% on his own company or did he deliberately minimize the percentage to be deceptive?

Sure, feel free. I really know what you are going through working with MQ. It took me months to get up the nerve to finally untie my apron strings.

qualitymedical@pldi.net - just have questions..... thanks......

Please e-mail me too. nm
my take on the e-mail
e-mail (free) blanketing anyone who gets on an MT mailing list looking for unskilled (low pay) workers to churn out poor quality work for big profits. Sounds right out of a get rich book to me. Standard operating procedure for most companies in transcription biz.

Please e-mail me
I am definitely leaving OSi with or without another job. :)
Thanks for the e-mail
I understand what you mean and I would hate to have so many accounts. Things have definitely gone from bad to worse at OSi recently when I thought they couldn't. There has to be a better way for both of us.
E-mail
I did e-mail this morning, did you receive it? Anxiously awaiting info....thank you!
Of course, its in the mail...
Then they said it was lost, then they said I had the dates wrong on when they should pay, then it was if you don't get it by Friday, we will send it by UPS overnight, of course after the weekend had gone by and so on... At first, they bounced a check, by the time they made that good, the next check was due, and by the time they sent me another bogus check the third was due... and then I quit and the other one came due at that point... so here I am today with work done in July and they still have not paid me. They don't intend to either. For your sake, watch your back!
I got the same e-mail.
Scroll down further about the messages in regards to Type Right. Sounds like we are not the only ones getting these types of voice files. I'm not going to bother testing for this company!
