Interesting. I find it kind of obnoxious when poster calls others fools.
Then the OP goes on to say others are "negative"????? Do you find it offensive someone calls you a fool or you are acting foolish when you complain or joke about your work/manager/company? When posters respond, they are unpleasantly surprised that this would produce negativity against the OP?
for poster below who wanted contact regarding MQMT lawsuit, this is who I talked to.

WHAT? Are you the same poster who called me a rimrod?
You still cannot answer my question. I had a lengthy post and you answer with he is from Pakistan. I know that. I am asking for more info on him. Where can I get it? If you cannot answer me than stop answering my posts. Thank you.
I know it's off subject but the poster is called latte, and since I love them
I thought I'd ask. My absolutel fave though is pumpkin spice latte. Have a great day!
and you Judge only Certain Posters as Fools?
and only MQ Certain Posters upset and embarrass you? why not address MQ Certain Posters rather than making blanket statements?
with all due respect you are backtracking big time and sliding a bit on the truth side. read your posts over. but that's okay. kind of clintonish whether you like it or not.
You are the one who started this negativity calling people fools. You are the one
who started this whole discussion. Now you are surprised someone disputes you? OMG! If this wasn't so funny I would be genuinely concerned about your mental health.
i think the whole thread is in jest at the fools who run MQ, past and present.
How many MQ CEOs does it take to give MTs a raise after 5-6 years or to award a prize of a trip to Hawaii offered months ago ? What a joke and the jokes on us - for now.
I do not work hard every day to support fools, yet I am forced to by this
I do NOT, DO NOT, care about people who put themselves in harm's way in order to brag that they have a 9-room house on the beach.
Congrat's New MQMT
 All you can do is your best, go along with what you are hired at and knock em dead, so to speak!
Keep the positive attitude and don't worry about the complainers. Sure, I wish(hope) I get 9 cpl, still at base of 7.5, but you bring a positive vibe for us all
I'm sorry MQMT. Feel really bad

MQMT's view from her throne (sm)
It must be nice way up there in the clouds where you sit. I don't check out these boards often, but in reading today's posts and your comments, I felt compelled to make a few statements.
Your replies to several posts 7/12 and 7/13/05 made me cringe. There was a cartoon strip a few years back, Charlie Brown and friends, with a little dog named Snoopy who would sit up in a tree like a vulture and peer down on the rest of the pee-ons down below him. You come across as Holier-than-thou as my late grandmother.
Do you enjoy calling people lazy (or worse)? I bet there would be several who would like to take your inventory.
I've transcribed for MQ since they were TLF and have been with them throughout all the changes that have come down the pike. Some I have been frustrated with, but bottom line is I like what I do and it hasn't been bad enough (yet) for me to look elsewhere.
Go ahead and flame - I've got my hose ready, too.
Well, I think there are a lot of people that use MQMT but there is a lot of complaining in the
office I work in in the NE so check out those offices and I think you will find a lot of unhappy people.
Who sent you the paperwork? MQ or MQMT attorneys?
Be scared of what? No raises, losing accounts, smoke and mirrors, turnkey CEOs.
Amen MQMT! I think we have the same editors.
LOL.
all MQMT's need to reply to the letter
my last name is at the front of the alphabet and I haven't gotten anything. I sent an email to the gal in payroll and cc'd my supervisor and haven't gotten a response from either - wonder why?? you're absolutely right that everyone of us shouldn't take this lying down and needs to reply to the letter and not complain to our supervisors because we all know where that scenario goes - in one ear and out the other!!
Guess the MQMT threw me off
SORRY
The so-called "reality show" is the lowest form of so-called entertainment in recent years
I hate them. They've ruined TV.
That's because NE has the 2 biggest complainers on this board daily! MQNE and MQMT!
nm
You tell them my sister MQMT. MQ fire patrol out in full force today!
 But we can contain their idiot remarks with logic.
Good one. An anonymous poster blows another anonymous poster's head off. Great win for MQ?
 I guess that is a small pleasure for those of you who have lowered your expectations for the company you work for. 
Bet you're married to a fat bald guy too.
It's time we all called NJ. I called
They can't provide anything in writing.
Nobody knows anything - keep telling you to call your supervisor.
I smell something worse than New Orleans coming from NJ.
I did not notice the OP asking you about what to do.
Mind your business if you have no answers to the question OK?
Bye now! 
PS: I hate when people come on here with an agenda and preach when all that is required is a simple answer relevant to the original question. 
or did anyone else notice that
every time someone says they are struggling with lines that it is automatically assumed that they are "messing around on the internet" or doing anything other than working. The problem could not possibly be a difficult account or anything reasonable. I know yesterday, on one account, I typed 37 different dictators. The majority of which were residents, who don't know what they want to say and repeatedly says "uh" or "no go back and change that" or ESL doctors speaking broken English. I find it very difficult to adjust to an account where there is no consistency in the dictators. You cannot get familiar with them as you more than likely will not get the same one very often.
I am trying to tell her right. If you will notice
it says it once, but the examples do not include it with the hyphen. We are moving away from the hyphen. As I stated, some still allow, but most of the companies do not use the hyphenated version any longer.
You may notice here, and it has been
depends on the area somewhat, but also how you receive the work and the work type (direct from the doctor, local MTSO, national MTSO, acute care/clinic/dr. office).
Clinic work in my area, SE region, it seems is about .12 gross line or about .16 65-character for what the dr. office pays. Subcontractors from the contract holder recieve between .06 and .09/gross line.
Nationals usually pay .07 to .09 for clinic work on a 65-character line. I think that acute care probably pay would start around .09 or .10 and go up depending on experience, etc.
Also, a lot of them will pay a little more for full-time (a very little).
Acute
Yes and without notice
Notice
It depends on what your contract calls for, but if no stipulation then most only give 30 days. That should be more than enough time for them to find someone else.
notice
My contract stated 30 days. I gave a 30-day notice but I did not have any work in my pool after only 3-4 days after giving notice. I would have gladly worked for those 30 days.
Anyone notice...
These new "changes" take away quite a few characters for us? Not the hyphen thing; that's probably because they are tired of some people not "getting" when to use hyphens and they just said "screw it!" but the i.e., etc., Mr., Mrs., Dr., etc. How dumb does "John H Smith III" look? Throw some punctuation back in there! Although it wouldn't surprise me if the companies are the ones saying that they don't REALLY need all of those periods and commas, after all...
It's just like some new dictionaries; can't spell a word right, change it! (I've read where judgement is becoming more and more acceptable because a lot of people can't seem to drop the e.)
Did you notice that those
who claim that they are able to do key commands to make speed, so that they are making $20 an hour doing editing, also more than not are trainers in a position where they can pick their own work, knowing which doctors the VR actually does well with... And who have also been with the company itself over 10 years? Basically VR is designed so that the company gets more for the report and the editor/transcriptionist actually gets less. IF they want me to edit again, its only going to be for the same rate as the transcription work pays.
Yup, quit the company I worked for that used it about a month ago and I am still steaming out the ears from it.
Notice
Always - it's the professional thing to do. Easy for me to say because I'm not in your shoes, but we've probably all been in a position at one time or another where we couldn't wait to move on to greener pastures. If you've been able to stay this long, you can probably do 2 more weeks. Best of luck.
Did you notice?
She tells how much it costs an Indian MT to be a member, but not how much it costs to test.
Anyone every notice...
When you put your notice in (2 weeks or not) at any of the MT companies out there they suddenly have had problems with your work recently and some even accuse the MT of doing malicious things in the system?
Just wondering if I'm alone with that.
did you ever notice
the ones on here who wonder why we complain about working so hard for so little are the ones with husbands paying all the bills? Sorry if I offended anyone but the above poster just proved it to me once again.
Is it me or does anyone else notice...sm
Ever notice that most of these platforms/programs that we work on make it very difficult to keep track of lines, view how many lines in a given time period etc...seems that is the last consideration... for us to see how much we make.
Just had to vent, thanks! :)
What is the difference that you notice mostly.
:
Oh, and I notice you have posted ONCE as JK???...
Lost job without notice
I worked for over a year at a company called New England Transcription. It is in Connecticut. They found out today that the hospital dropped their account. It is not associated with New England Medical Transcription.
No notice required
Since you are still in the learning the job stage just inform them that you are resigning effective immediately. Usually the first 90 days are a trial with employee and employer and no one should take offense. They could let you go with no reason either.
giving notice
Depends - either wait until you have a new job, if that's what you want; or, just tell them you quit and do they want you to finish out the week or? I guess I don't see the problem. If they wanted to fire you, it would be "bye bye now."
Do they give you notice
Do you think they would give you notice if they decide to ship your work overseas, or give you notice that they are going to hire more MTs to take your work away from you. NEED I REALLY SAY MORE.
You've got that right. NO NOTICE at all.
They just wake you up one morning with a 5:00 a.m. phone call and tell you that your account is gone.
Giving Notice
I feel you should treat them the same way they treated you. Did they try to work with you or did you ask them/tell them their reports weren't your "cup of tea"? Myself, I am very professional, but an MT's job is different than an office job. They're like McDonald's; either they won't even replace you or they probably have 50 resumes to pick from and hire the same day. So my answer is no, don't give notice if they were tacky. I wrote an email and asked for a shipping label form a large company. They finally sent the slip after two requests and are open to hiring me again!! So I feel any more, MTs are a "dime a dozen." If you are ethical enough to sit there and type two more weeks while you could be spending your time finding a decent company to work for ASAP, I think it would be stupid to waste your time on them ... depending on your circumstances of which I know nothing about.
You will notice difference after one use... but
I did have an issue with getting some of the gel in my mouth and getting nauseous from swallowing some of it. Just be careful.
benefits after notice
the norm is a cobra period of 3 months - most states require cobra benefits. But you have to pay.
I used to notice that, but strangely...
with my new MTSO, all of the PAs are very good, most of them better than many of the doctors. And this is also the first place where nearly all of the women dictators are my favorites. Strange, like I said, and certainly not my usual experience, but I like it.
Yeah, and did ya ever notice, (sm)
that lots of the stuff in their nit-picky book is WRONG?
(Or else totally irrelevant to a properly transcribed medical document.)
Oy!
Where I have been, you have to work out your notice
to get it back. My last company had a policy that you could only be paid for a certain number of hours, but they must have had enough people quit without notice that they changed it so you could receive everything if you worked your notice. Check on the policy, and if your company does have this rule, state in your very professional letter of termination that you are willing to work out the notice.
I know if you work your notice you will get - sm
any vacation time due to you. I have no idea about sice time, but I would think that is not paid to you. You only get that if you are sick, not if you quit. My DH has about a year of sick time (they are allowed to carry it over luckily) and I know if he quit he would not get it, but he would get his vacation time as long as he worked his 2 weeks notice. If you quit without notice you will not get a penny.
Giving notice
I think it is a kindness. After all, they will need to replace you, and possibly need to train somebody for your account. Otherwise they could come up short on turn-around time. However, if they have been extremely unfair with you, I would give 2 weeks and tell them if they did not need 2 week's that I could to leave at any time.
