when we (DRC) were originally 'invaded'
Posted By: by Acusis, this is what we were told: S/M on 2009-05-31

They claimed that they wanted their US 'presence' to be a higher level of MT, so that companies that preferred American-transcribed work, or who had accounts too tough for the ESL-MTs to handle, could have it done by American MTs. We were told that we'd be held to very high standards, and that the clients we typed for would be paying more for our services. Anyone with a kindergarten education would assume that American MTs would also be paid better than the dots-not-feathers.
Well, I got my kindergarten education, but apparently the Big Kahunas at Acusis are lacking in that department.

that is what i said originally....sm
but she is getting her panties all in a wad and then she posted 42 DAYS.......HELLO.....Now i know it is 42 days instead of 30....I was actually correct the first time, but off a few days. Still you have to wait a MONTH and a few days. geez!!!
Originally from Waterford....
I was just there today. My daughter wanted some plants from a freecycler who lives on a dirt road with a valley behind her and a swimming pool. She also gave us a lot of yarn, so we were there a long time. I had to mapquest her address because I'm not familiar with the northern part of Waterford.
I originally applied for clinic...sm
but was told positions were closed for clinic and radiology. When he offered acute care, I admitted my weakness in OP reports, and he was still willing to hire me. Like I stated, this was my second time applying (heard nothing the first time) so DON'T give up yet. Good luck to you.
Originally from Waterford, born in sm
Pontiac. Now live in NC. My sister still is in Highland, other relatives/friends, White Lake, Novi, Waterford, Pontiac, Clarkston, etc, all over Oakland County. Actually am going up on October 10 for 2 weeks.
Heartland India based originally
I'm almost certain that at the time Heartland was purchased by HCR, they were originally a India based entity. The Domestic MTs/editors came much later.
I was offered a position, originally accepted it, but
than changed my mind. They told me it would be about 2 weeks before I could work, but the account I was going to be working on was acute care and they needed to get me cleared through the hospital to be able to access their system and then I would have to go through setup. The account I was offered as internet based - I think Dictaphone ExText.
There originally was a long thread with this post. As

Originally, you had to provide your own long distance, and there were not the sm
unlimited LD services available back then, so D paid more to compensate for you having to provide your own LD. One Suite was the cheapest thing available, and it was 2 cents per minute, I think. Since unlimited LD is now available, that is probably why she felt she could lower the rate of pay. I am only guessing. I was making 11-1/2 cpl when I worked there, and I kind of shot myself in the foot and had to leave. I have had regrets in the past, but maybe I am not missing out on anything anymore. Sad.
Regardless, I am surprised at her paying only 3 cpl for VR, which is below what most companies pay, and trying to assert that you can do 3 times as much on VR. She was always fair with employees and seemed to want to do right by them. I guess that is the way of the business nowadays.
Good luck to you.
