I was glad to hear from everyone on their experiences. You can read and read on something, but there's nothing like hearing from people about their experience with it. It gives me a lot to think about and I'm gonna proceed slowly before doing anything. I'm really hoping something with be found locally, but so far no luck. Again thanks to everyone and HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I'm not the person you just responded to, I didn't type about you should lighten up.  But to defend myself, I didn't call you a name.  I asked you a question which was R U an ageist?  It was a question with an LOL - I was joking.  LOL=laugh out loud.  Had I been serious and not joking, no LOL would have appeared.

Again, sorry if I offended you.  Wasn't my intent. 

I could see, Babe, where all that would give you AND ME a splitting headache and is why I use the CPA.  My private docs made me sign a contract started a couple of years ago.  I don't think they want me as an employee and until the state of Florida tells them differently, I'm praying nothing changes for me on this issue. 

Thanks again for your responses and EXPLANATIONS - I do so appreciate all you typed.  I will be speaking to my CPA next week due to this issue you brought up and thanks for bringing it to my attention!!! 

Thanks for all of the tips!  One more question...this dictator has extremely incorrect grammar - should I be typing verbatim or put in punctuation to correct run-on sentences and adding endings to words so they are the correct tense, etc??  Just don't know what the rule is on that for testing.

Thanks

I appreciate all your comments and it looks like a few of you have very little work and many of you have more than you know what to do with.  How very strange.  I just wonder what's really going on.

In answer to a couple of your questions, yes, I do acute care-the "Big 4" and with some other stuff thrown in once in a while.  It's a huge account that usually doesn't lack work and we have 2 FT MTs "who are no longer with us" (as the boss puts it) within the last couple weeks but despite their loss that has made absolutely no difference in the amount of work.  It still continues to spiral downward.  Again, this is just on the account I work on, but the boss says it's the same with all the accounts with this company and "in the industry as a whole right now" which, judging by some of your posts, aint true at all.

No, the company I work for isn't Spheris.  It begins with a P.

I guess I'll give it a couple more weeks and see what happens.  Either they'll tell us what's really going on or things will improve, right?!!  I may be pounding the pavement again before too long.  Sigh.

Anyway, thanks again for your support.  Egads! I sound like a politician now!  

After reading your posts I have definitely made up my mind and I am NOT going to take it.  I was really thinking about taking it more for personal reasons than professional.  The most that I have seen a company offer for a CMT is about .05 cpl more than a non-CMT so I knew it wasn't really worth the money.  However, I am NOT giving anyone my money or my time that supports offshoring.  When I changed jobs recently I tried to be extremely careful, researching companies that were interested in me and if I even thought that they were or may consider offshoring, I would turn them away in a hurry!!  As someone in an earlier post said, we have been turned on and I am not going to help them in any way. 

Thank you all so much for your posts, they are greatly appreciated!!!!  Have a wonderful day. 

I never worked for a doctor's office, so forgive me for going off track a little.  I went to my doctor in May for a followup of a problem I had gone to him before that.  He had no record whatsoever of me even seeing him on the previous office visit and chalked if up to a transcription error.  (I think they transcripe in their office, however.)  SO, no record of me being there or the problem, and of course the doctor can't remember every patient's problems.  I am not blaming the Transcriptionist here at all; I tend to blame the doctor.  Who knows, maybe he DIDN'T even transcribe it. So, I think sometimes the doctors should be held responsible instead of blaming somone else.  God bless.
