Could this be termed false advertising. Seems like a lot more people on the other board are saying

the same thing about MQ. If she is so religious as you claim why would she steer people to a company to have them not be able to pay their bills. Seems a bit odd to me.

unfortunately not false advertising.
It says UP TO $60K. When I worked FT, I made that much. Ahhh, those were the days!
the history? nothing.. he is just advertising an Indian MT company and board

MQ true or false...FALSE
Yep, we are swamped in Ohio but no, that bonus was not offered this past weekend. Line bonus's were.
Just remember that it is not the people on this board who short changed their people and ONLY after
caught did they (after they were suied) make an effort to look good by sending out these checks. Now, think about this--had they done this many years ago when they short changed everyone, that would have been honest. Does it not bother you that only after they know they are under the gun that they are doing this to try and make themselves look good?
I used to work for MQ and I used to like what I did. I never can say I really liked the people that I worked with, but I really think they had some of the best accounts that I have ever come across in the MT industry. I loved working the major teaching hospitals that I did, but that certainly does not mean that I enjoyed being cheated out of pay.
So chill already. People have been cheated, were lied to, and only AFTER they got caught have they tried to return some of the money they robbed us of (as well as cheated their clients).
We all have reasons not to be happy with this company and you go off on us because we are complaining of things like small refund checks of a penny or a few cents or a few hundred dollars and NO WAY to even check to find out if this is correct?
I am sorry you are unhappy all of us thinking that there is still a dead rat in the cellar, but there is still a dead rat in the cellar and nothing will bring the dead rat back.
I would hold no love for a company that I know willingly cheated the very people who helped THEM make money out of their hard-earned money.
Go take a deep breath and think about that.
Definitely one of the other board's people who refer to those on this board as "holy rollers,&
Now go ahead and post your reply - I know you're dyin' to!
LOL
Some people are new to this board
and confused. Every heard of a NEWBIE needing help?????
Kristen, you've got at least 3 people on this board
that say you've scammed them. Are all three people liars??? It's not that hard to do a criminal background check on you now that we have your name. And it would not be hard to obtain your SS# after that either to find out what other states you've done this in.
It was not about the south, but the people on that board. get over yourself.

Word ? DO NOT go on this board, but people continue
to post them. Administrators have continuously posted DO NOT post word questions here. Most everything else is allowed unless people get ugly and then they are told to take it elsewhere. If you want to play you need to follow the rules.
Board names or not, some people, myself included...
don't care to discuss what they make. Why should we? It is such an individual thing and based on so many factors that is is impossible to draw any meaningful conclusions.
The type of work, as well as the MTs experience, ability to research effectively, retention and overall knowledge and intelligence, self-discipline (and much more) are variable, to say the least.
What others make is totally irrelevant to what someone else may make.
I think people get reamed on this board because registration is not
how they feel. I think the moderators here do a pretty good job of keeping this site clear of that sort of thing though. I personally like that I don't have to log in or show who I am when I post.
People who read this board still apply
at companies they are warned about. Your book would not only be a waste of time, but no one will buy it.
Why is is that people come on this board and ask a question and get pissy when they don't like th
your orginal post you are complaining about following the account specifics and not liking it and now you are blaming QA...don't get mad at other poeple if you are not clear on your original post...
Other people have posted about the ad on the company board--
--but the posts were deleted. I'm not sure what's up with that.
Soooo...what are you saying? That people should post something that is worthy of the board in SM
your estimation? Would you like to have the monitors delete this post about KL and Regis? What is it that you want? Or would YOU like to think of a transcription topic and post it? What's the deal?
Not just in this thread but hostile people on this board always, WHYYYY
It's depressing.
Someone please post the name of a board where I might have to pay to be a member but don't have to listen to all the mean people.
Cute. Now you have taken to analyzing people as an anonymous poster on a MT board.
On a Sunday morning, doncha have something better to add to the world?
I am sick of people posting crap on this board and not backing it up. nm.
nm.
People tend to "embellish" the answer to this question, especially on this board.
Some people seem to feel a need to impress strangers on an anonymous message board. Sad, but true.
False. They are training everyone for it but
LMAO,oooh gawd, you're just killing us here! LOL
False advertisng ..........
How can a company brag about their ability to meet or exceed HIPAA regulations if they offshore? There is just no 100% way they can guarantee such a thing because once it leaves this country, there are no laws governing those things in another country. To me that is just false advertising and very misleading to their customers, whom I question even know it is leaving these shores. 
SITE ADMINISTRATOR: PLEASE ESTABLISH A BOARD FOR THE MQ PEOPLE, TRUST ME THEY'VE EARNED IT!!!!!

MQ-True or False about Work
Can this be true???? My girlfriend who works out of the Ohio office left me a message saying that she had gotten a message over the week end from the Ohio office with the following incentive: For every 10 reports that you typed, you would receive 25 dollars--IS THIS POSSIBLE with all the rest of us out of work in Amherst--if there is so much work in Ohio, why are we not helping???
What you're saying is completely false.

Enter "Psychology" as your key word. Lowest I found in my area (Philadelphia, PA) was 62 grand a year. Plus just the respect that one gets from having a college degree is worth it!
Go back to school. I'm taking Psychology as well and can't wait to get off this dead-end life of MT.
"Faux" is French for false. - nm

Not to give you false hopes, but I actually
got my period for about 3 months with each of my 3 pregnancies. I also had faint lines on my pregnancy testers. I'm sure there are others out there who have had periods as well - just tune into your body for other symptoms of pregnancy - i.e. I always also suffered from hyperemesis gravidarum instantly and for 9 months for all 3. Yuck. Good luck to you! Keep the faith!
We have had to endure so many of their false alarms about warnings
that no one pays attention to any of them, including those that are obviously going to be a danger. People are tired of being told to live in fear of everything, so they ignore it.
I agree - it is a false sense of security.
There are pedophiles everywhere that aren't registered. I just can't believe that the laws aren't tougher on these people. Anybody could come up with $500 bail - that's like a slap on the wrist. This guy has made me very uncomfortable for a long time. Last Thanksgiving when we were out of town, he strung Christmas lights all over the house to "surprise the kids," and he brings them over Christmas presents every year. Thank God I have never let my children be alone with him. The next time my husband tells me I'm over-protective, I'll be sure to bring this up! Really, is there such a thing as over-protective in this day and age?
Not false info. I'm telling you we just changed this! lol
No more M-Tec and Andrews.
Unfortunately, false statements of high pay attract
Me, too. Only if I send receipt do they know it was read. False information.

You can also charge her with "filing a false report" with police.
The police offered us to do that against our neighbors because they call the cops on us any time we even have relatives over for our childrens' birthday parties. It's not like we get rowdy and drunk. We sit on the deck and eat food for two hours. Oh, dread.
Sue the wench in civil court. Call the police and ask them what you can charge her with.
advertising on your car
I did surveys, took too long and never really made much money. What i want to do is find someone to advertise on my car. They wrap it with a plastic advertisement and you get paid monthly for driving around town. Does anyone have info for this? I googled it and was only able to find european companies that do it.
advertising
Hi,
I agree that most will be word of mouth, but i did make up flyers with price, turnaround time, etc and walked into and sent many offices my flyer along with a business card. If an office was advertising for a medical secretary, I would fax my flyer because more than likely, they would need a Transcriptionist or have the secretary do it. I now work for four docs all of whom were referred by my very first client.
Good luck to you!

Advertising
I had my own business for 7 years, worst mistake I ever made was selling it. Anyway, flyers go in the trash, best way I found was to go and visit each office, speak with office manager if you can and leave a business card with your rates, turn around time, delivery, pickup etc....Then make a followup phone call a week or two later, and continue with 6 to 12 month followup. Once you get an account and they are happy, before long word of mouth will get you more work than you can handle. Good luck.
That is why they always are advertising nm
jkdlfjklsdj
Into advertising now too?
I didn't know that. I will have to look into that some more and see what they are doing with that.
use their own advertising
This is great of proof of why American MTs are better and the physicians need us. You can tell them, or you can show them. If this major national can't even have correct copy on their advertising....
Quess web design doesn't go through QA.

Patti - Are you the one advertising for an IC and YOU
Big no-no. If you're specifying hours and rates, honey, you're an employer!!! PAY UP ON THE EMPLOYER ISSUES!!
Look, when you start advertising your own BOS, the
Administrators DO know about the AAMT and when they start with their advertisement of GLOBAL-wide acceptance, style guide, certification, education, etc., you'll be hard pressed to get business.
I'm just trying to give you a few ideas of what you're REALLY up against. THE industry standard. THE industry leader. THE recognized well-established with money to boot association who already has the global market.
You may find a few rogue MTs and small-time clinics here and there for your project.
Wasn't trying to come off as advertising
Hello guys, I'm sorry for the multiple posts today. I wasn't trying to come off as trying to advertise, especially since I'm not making any kind of money at all, just trying to be helpful. I didn't mean to come across as self-promoting or anything.
So totally and completely false! Plenty of employers test who are not partners with top 3!

There are still plenty of companies willing to pay for advertising
on the TV and radio. Besides, I'd never pay for radio or TV. That's just silly.
Cleveland Clinic was advertising for MTs for their Fla
the Ohio (main) clinic was at one time being transcribed by "that" other company but don't know if they do it any more.
I'm with you - a face transplant is very interesting!
Look up their clinic in Florida (extension) and see if they are still hiring. Let us know. :))
He wasn't advertising here--it was MT Jobs.

They keep advertising. Bad place to work
As if being Indian-based bad enough. No Thanks!!!
my, my, how hateful. That's good advertising...
for the AHDI. Ahem. Your grammar and structure are lovely and correct, though. I'm sure you passed the exam with flying colors.
I used to joke that every time I considered the CMT I got pregnant: end of CMT plans. In all seriousness, it's a lot of money to spend. I was chapter president of our local AAMT for a couple of years and I put in a lot of hours setting up stuff for the CMTs to get credits; it's quite frankly what it all revolved around. A lot of those women have spent a PILE of money over the years keeping current with their certification and I admire their tenacity. Not one of them that I know personally, however, has ever benefited monetarily or professionally by their CMT; it is a personal satisfaction only.
Unfortunately, it's not as simple as a forest/trees analogy nor as simple as a having a "grudge" against the AAMT - oh, excuse me, AHDI. There's been a lot of broken promises and dreams over the years and some people have real reason to be bitter about it.
The exam is a good one. I proctored an exam, I've looked at the materials, and I've seen what it takes to maintain. It's good stuff. But unfortunately, in the end, it's only for your own personal satisfaction. Different strokes.
Advertising policy of MTStars...
Many of you haven't noticed Advertising policy of MTStars lately.
http://www.mtstars.com/advertising.htm
No more sponsorships from MTSOs etc. The truth is being spoken on these boards and it always hurts. You can't remain sober if betrayed by some company or individual. You would have been speaking the same way if you were in their shoes.
I love MTStars for being unbiased (what people say nastiness). It's not like MTChat or MTDaily etc., where the posts are deleted and board owners are instructed to keep their & posters mouths shut for annual sponsorship of $500 by MTSOs.
It's the advertising policy of MTStars..

They are still advertising the jobs on their website and in the newspaper
Quite a waste of money if they're downsizing. Oh, and did I mention - they just opened up a new clinic, which increased the work load by about one-third, and now they are building a second hospital?
Nope. Not downsizing.
