In Reply to: need some HONEST feedback regarding onsite and relocation - - -
Please drop me an email. As for relocating that would not be possible for me at this time. But if can be at-home job why is it necessary to relocate? I could see coming in for training for a week or so, but why relocate if it can be accomplished remotely?

So why the secrecy? Who is it with? We would all love to apply and be as lucky! (nm)

I love green tea, but not too close to bedtime, or will be up, um,
zz
Will the same apply for IC??
x
I'd like to apply.
Apply, apply, apply
I would suggest you check the archives of this and other MT boards. I would also suggest you send out a lot of resumes and apply to many companies. A great company for one person might not be a great company for you. I would never quit one company unless I already had a job with another one. If possible, work the 2 jobs to see which one is worth leaving and which one is worth staying with. Don't sell yourself short. You only deserve the best.
No, you don't want to apply here.
If the Twilight Zone did a show regarding transcription companies, this would be it.
I'd t ake it. If you don't want it, I'd like to apply.
;-D
does not apply to IC's...sm
you are self employed, remember? therefore YOU are the employer. If you have your house built and the guy who comes to put the siding on is slow, and doesn't know what he is doing, he might only make $3.00/hr by the time he's done. Does he go to your builder and say you need to pay me minimum wage...no, he bid the job and he is responsible for doing enough work in an hour to make it worth his while...just like you are!
400-650 when I apply myself.
Using Escription.
Apply to any and all
You can find online, through magazines, etc. I applied to over 100 when I first started out after school, and finally found someone who was willing to give me a try. You will eventually find someone.
Also, if you can't find someone to hire you right away, write to a company to see if they might give you a short intern position or something. It would be worth a try anyway.
Good Luck with your search!
did we apply for the same job? LOL sm
I've been at home for 12 years and it's taking a toll on me. I need some social interaction. There are 2 local hospitals here and one had a unit clerk, nights and weekends. I applied and within a few days, emailed me back and said no. Geez, didn't even get an interview.
It's about as close as you can come without
a commitment to pregnancy and job! Hahahaha
your not looking close enough,
stealing from you!!!
You really should close some of them. sm
Every card you have is more potential debt. This may not matter to you now, but when you try to get a car loan, or a mortgage, or even a regular bank loan, it will matter then. There's absolutely no reason to keep multiple card accounts open, especially if you have absolutely no intention of using them. Keep 1 or 2 open, use them regularly, and pay them off promptly. That is the best way to use them to your advantage.
I don't think so...but close enough...sm
the ergonomics involved with a laptop---mmm... you would have to be real careful if you were actually putting in quite a few hours a day. The keyboards are SO small! And remember ergonomics includes angle of arms, a proper chair height, etc. I don't think you can just plop it anywhere on the deck and do that for 6 hours a day...
Too Close
I'm really disappointed that Elliott left. Let's hope that Elliott fans turn to Taylor. I couldn't believe how close the numbers were. The turn outs that they all had when they went home were incredible, especially Elliott's. I think he'll go far.
Since you are so close
to your due date, I would think long and hard about it. That leave with pay would be very nice.
I don't think it would be very difficult for you to find other at-home positions at a better time, and maybe even the place offering you one now would be have something a little later. (They might not act like it now when trying to get you to commit to something though.)
I'm close by
I think you and I have passed a couple of private e-mails today? I'm about 30 miles from you. Yes, it is outrageous. I have lived here my whole life, and since so many retirees are coming in, my town is impossible to buy in! Well, for my income, that is. I agree, even now without working in MT I would never make it. I left an office job making $300 every two weeks 8 years ago to do this...Best move of my life. As for the future, who knows, but for now, I am really thankful for this profession.
I have never gotten close to that - sm
But the majority of my work is specialty clinic notes and creating a lot of templates and normals for these docs is almost impossible because each patient is so different. I can make almost twice as much in the same amount of time doing OPs and DSs than clinic notes! But I do make way over minimum wage.
How close to 18 is she?
Was your doctor talking to her about the wisdom of getting vaccinated when she reaches 18? She will be able to make her own healthcare decisions then--she doesn't have to wait until 21. In some states, decisions about Gardasil might be available to minors at an earlier age. He undoubtedly feels an obligation to inform her of her rights at that point--it would be wrong of him not to.
Fearing infertility from back x-rays is unfortunate. Do you really believe doctors are exposing all those people having x-rays to the horrible fate of infertility? That wouldn't make sense. If you can't manage to look up whether back x-rays cause infertility, how are you managing to find out about all these alleged deaths and illnesses from Gardasil? Are you reading reputable medical information or stuff cranked out by uninformed, anti-medical crazies?
The fact that YOU had cervical cancer is no reason to expect that your daughter should accept having it, too. This is a preventable and still deadly disease.
Also, if you had to leave the room for "the rest of the exam," it sounds like a gynecologic exam. Was that because your daughter is sexually active? If so, that clearly explains why your doctor was informing her of her choices. She needs to be vaccinated BEFORE she is exposed to the virus.
Why is it only for SEs? If its really quality they want it should apply to
Quality is quality whether an employee or not.
FYI, you can apply online...sm
at: www.fafsa.ed.gov
All the instructions are on this site. You can get your "PIN" here (which you will use for applying online) and and also fill out your application for aid online.
1099 does not apply to SE

Let's apply your logic here once again.
OK. So now people who don't like skanky celebrities think the celebs are their friends? ROFL! Please, keep posting. It's quite amusing. The more you post, the more you reveal your own crazy thinking. Must be why you like Angelina so much. She's some hotty kinda nutjob, eh? Birds of a feather flock together. Chirp, chirp! 
I did say that what I was talking about might not apply to the OP
Those are problems I usually see in MTs who have received an inadequate education in transcription, or who have only worked for 1 or 2 doctors in-house. If you weren't serious about "Why go to MT school" as a question, then I misunderstood.
So are you hiring or not? I'd like to apply
and see if I have what it takes to work for you.
Thanks..I won't bother to apply with them now.
nm
Call me if you would like to apply
I don't count the peaNUTS. I have someone do that for me. Actually, it usually turns into a naughty game if you know what I mean. Would you like to be a counter in the weekly peaNUT game? We always have room for more.
Not because of pasting but if you apply to any job
if it reaches the company you sent your resume to, just like when you post a message your email is already filled in. It's cookies in your browser like above poster said.
Thank you a bunch! Looking to apply
there - are they good?
Mostly apply to ones with no pay posted
Most of the ones I see with pay posted list their high figure as one being below what I would accept, except there are one or two IC ads I have seen that were in my pay range. For employee status, most don't state but I know what my worth is and what I want from a company, which gives real added value to the cpl. It has been my experience that most employers will negotiate the cpl when a good applicant comes their way, so I don't worry much about going through the interview process not knowing the pay scale. Even if I go through all the testing and interviewing and the pay becomes the ONLY issue that would break the deal, I still feel that I learned something from the experience and can apply that to being more selective in choosing another company to apply with. Knowing what the competition of your employer is doing gives you power and confidence in finding your niche.
What is the company? I don't want to apply
NM
How would I apply? am sure I'm out of state. (nm)

Well, then doesn’t apply to me, just
telling it like I have lived and see it now. Reading just below today another person who has been in for quite a few years saying outsourced and giving it up. Thank goodness don’t have to do that as in the golden years but earlier I would have just had to work a heck of a lot more to make it and raise my family....
Absolutely does apply
All reports must be approved and signed by physician. If she is not qualified to create reports on patient charts, which means given approval by the doc to do such as a nurse or PA, big big trouble. I know.. I supervisor HIM department. Joint Comission would have a fit.
Can I apply with your company?
Thank you for your post. It is a pleasure to know you are out there. Any chance you are hiring -- part/full time? If so, would appreciate hearing from you. Thank you.
And Tude-Y MTs need not apply!
!
DO NOT APPLY WITH SPI/CYMED
They are "eliminating" positions apparently to start their transfer offshore. Not a good company to work for by any means!!!
I would think just go ahead and apply.
If you've done acute care, you should be fine with radiology. I've never done pathology, but I would think it would be pretty similar to radiology in that they use certain tests for certain specimens. I think there's a touch of radiology and pathology in acute care reports. I do a lot of clinic and also have worked full-time radiology, and they are seem to intertwine. I would say either let your current employer know you're interested and see what happens. 
Apply the BOS rules
Expand abbreviations in diagnosis, impression, and assessment. Otherwise leave abbreviated. If you have the BOS, you can check under "abbreviations." A lot of companies say in their ads and/or on their websites whether they adhere to the BOS or not, and/or if that is a reference they require. I do not think you can go wrong if you generally apply the BOS rules whereas you have to watch out because some are using the 3rd edition now.
I would go ahead and apply...
If you apply and they pull up your *record* and decide not to hire you, you'll have your answer as to whether that'll affect your ability to get a job. If you get turned down, it's not as if you get put on a list somewhere - this is just a company who will put your file in a drawer somewhere and that's it.
If you do get called back, don't mention it in the interview. That record has been marked as *no conviction* and that's exactly what it means. You don't get treated the same as those *with* convictions.
Also, I had a dispute with a telephone company once and was looking up the situation online and came across several lawyer sites that can answer questions like yours, i.e. whether a record under the first offender act needs to be mentioned on an employment application.
My sister was arrested for shoplifting 30 years ago and she finished nursing school, married a doctor, and with the kids gone now, is back being a scrub nurse, so I don't think you'll have a problem.
Good luck
Sure, go ahead and apply and
do testing if you can't find an employee position that you like. Don't buy any equipment except a USB pedal though. A pedal would be a good investment. Even if the company is a small one, they may still provide equipment you need, or rent it to you if it is a Lanier or C-phone. A lot of companies have you logging into the hospital's system directly so you may not even need a new version of Word. Be prepared to arrange for unlimited long distance if you don't have it already. It looks like lots of places require that. If you have internet cable that should not be a problem; just get internet phone service also and you will have your unlimited long distance.
Good luck with your search. It's a jungle out there.

How would this apply to employees...sm
assigned crappy, ESL or otherwise difficult accounts where they have to work 14 hours to do their 8 hours or 1200 line daily minimums?
I moved very close to but not on ...
Makemoney Avenue.
Considering the taxes I pay, I think I should have bought the one on that street.
If you live close enough (sm)
and can afford to quit your job, go ahead. Once you are signed, you are expected to show up for auditions when they tell you to. You might go to 100s of them before being chosen for one and they usually last all day.
Erie. RU close?
.
They are extremely close.
From what I know of both companies, oddly enough it is MQ catching up to changing its operations to par with Spheris with the new Rewards Plan.
However, while Spheris has already had their compensation/benefits package settled for a while, they seem to be aggressively pursuing purchasing other companies and increasing their offshore entities.
MQ seems to be focusing on it's US clientele.
MQ has ASR and if Spheris has it, I haven't heard of it yet. I would imagine ASR came in with a recent purchase if Spheris has much in the way of it right now.
You are welcome.
Well, I actually pay close to $700 a month..
for health insurance, so wouldn't affect me much. The company will still be based in Houston though. They just have another location in Florida. The gas sounds promising. I was wondering how much for food. How much for bread, milk, etc. Just to get an idea. So far, it just sounds like the homes are what is real expensive there. The gas is comparible to Houston. How much do you pay for home insurance per year? In Texas, the ratio is usually something in the range of you buy a house for $140,000, your monthly bill would be around 1,400 for everything, taxes included. The homes here going for around $130,000-$160,000 look comparable to the homes ranging $260,000-$300,000 there. That is a huge difference.
Someone close to me, elderly, just
died of pneumonia after a fall. I can't tell you how many reports I have been typing lately of elderly people in the hospital with pneumonia after falls and really feel for these people. Suddenly, these reports all hit home.
Not even close to the same scenario.
Oh, please... that's like saying you should put your dog into a little cage that's only 4x his size, and give him a little exercise wheel and that he'll be fine... after all, that's what people with hamsters do, right? Apples and oranges. Again, talk to your vet.
