That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard
.
I think it's the stupidest thing on TV in a long time.

Heard same thing
My sister-in-law works for Spheris and she has the same problem. She has been there for 4 months and can't get above 150 lines per hour.
Another thing I heard of someone doing is ...
If they send you the post paid envelopes, stuff everything that was sent to you back into that and mail it. Perhaps write not interested across the application or what have you. It will cost them money for that being sent back to them and they probably will take you off their future mailing lists in the future. :D
Oh? Never heard of such a thing.

Never heard of such a thing
I would definitely stay away. Three days of typing and may be you have an off day and poof all those lines without pay? It does not sound legal to me either. Don't know who would want to work for a company like that. NOT ME.
I have never heard of a such thing sm
I can tell you that interviews work both ways, but that was rude. I have to say though, recruiters and MTSOs can be rude too. I have had that.
As a rule, I have found that those doing the hiring want an immediate answer and personally, I don't always have one!
Have never ever heard of such a thing

My husband heard the same thing...
Not yet, but I have heard the same thing about drop in pay. nm
xxxx
Have heard of that but I had the real thing
Face lift, that is, in fact 2 before and definitely would do again, thinking of tweaking now. The strange thing about those are the first time you look in the mirror afterwards you do not recognize the person you see there, even though you know it is you. I think the lifestyle is less invasive and from what I have seen, not as good as facelift.
I wouldn't say it was the stupidest
But it really doesn't seem to make a lot of sense for everyone to have to go through it twice. But to each his own, I guess. Especially when it's family, "Live and let live."
This is the funniest thing I've heard in all my
make 3 cpl... if you are really a physician, please stick to that, you'll make more money seeing one patient than we can edit reports in 12 hours! Furthermore, the jobs even that are classified as IC make you stick to a schedule! So, there's no coming and going between patients, okay?! 
I mean this OP is joking right?????????????
That's the craziest f@$^@#(ng thing I've ever heard
I've worked for a hospital at home and they don't all have those restrictions. If I didn't know better, I'd swear is was one of those situations where they're looking for a reason to be able to offshore- can't find anybody to do the job. No noise, music, TV? How do you work at home and eliminate those things?
I have heard of face lift! Is that the same thing?
That is THE most dangerous thing I think I've ever heard. You don't understand it?!
Amen, and I will add one more thing. If I had a penny for all the times I've heard, "just a ty
well, maybe I wouldn't be rich, but I could buy a months' worth of groceries! LOL
Honestly that is the most intelligent thing I've heard from an MT co. in a long time. Completely
You have to be able to retain knowledge.
You have to know how to reserach effectively.
You have to be able to use deductive reasoning.
You have to have confidence in your decisions and not constantly "need assurance."
You have to be able to separate sounds in your head that are both internal and from multiple external forces.
Some of these can be taught, some are innate, some take years to develop, some either you got it or you don't.
I WASN'T GUESSING. I HEARD WHAT I HEARD VERY CLEARLY.
I don't even agree with what QA said, but they are QA. Question them, and your out the door.
Ebonics: Not a black thing or white thing. (sm)
I don't think there's any cause to get upset or defensive here. Look it up on line...even colleges are offering courses in Ebonics! ...well of course they are more sociology-type courses, but still, people are PAYING to learn about the why's and how's of this "other" language.
A quote from one of the sites I found:
"UT-Austin's "Introduction to the Study of African American English," teaches students that the sentence, "Nobody didn't leave" is not "mainstream English with mistakes," but rather a legitimate English dialect. "Ebonics: Myth and Facts" and "African-American English" are both offered at Harvard. Penn and UCLA also promote Ebonics as a legitimate dialect in, "Introduction to African American and Latino English" and "Afro-American Sociolinguistics: Black English," respectively."

Best thing - I am my own boss and my own emloyee, worse thing - I am my own boss and my own
:P
Now Ive heard that before.:) nm
xxx
That's not what I have heard...
nm
What I heard...
And is strictly speculation... Phillips will dump MQ and Spheris will snap them up... and we all know what happens to those who work for Spheris! Can you say hello Bangalore? 
I heard it too AND
x
Not heard anything about it
sorry
I am sure you have heard this before..
there is no such thing as a dumb question.
you are asking questions other people wish they had the answers to but are afraid to ask.
and you are correct in your assumptions, however, your on-call status might have parameters; for instance, between the hours of midnight and 8 a.m.
Anyone heard of LTS, INC?
I was thinking of applying at LTS, INC but I was not sure if they were reputable! If anyone has ever heard anything about them, let me know! Thanks!! 
What I heard
I heard September 11th is the day we are all supposed to boycott.
This is what I heard is better to do
Of course, we all need gas, and as another poster noted, just not buying gas on a certain day will not work.
What I heard is, buy your gas from a small-time operation, as opposed to Exxon, BP, etc. This will cause them to lower their prices, and the smaller companies with follow by lowering theirs.
Also, noticed yesterday that gas has come down by about .50 in my area. I wasn't surprised, because when I have to go out, there's much, much less traffic...I would estimate by 75% of normal, so folks are boycotting in a way already... cutting down on their trips, combining trips, etc., because they just draw the line at the point prices had risen.
The last I heard
Huntsville Hospital transcription was a pill to work for. I worked with a lady one time who had quit the hospital because after they had agreed to give her vacation at a certain time months in advance they told her she couldn't take it and she had to cancel her vacation plans. They may have improved the way they do business by now but not sure. I would do more research if at all possible.
Heard something
Instead of the bonus being in the 10/1 paycheck, it is supposed to be in the 11/15 paycheck. Of course part of all of it was that you have to be with the company in order to receive it...you leave, you lose. Only half of the employees qualified, which is curious. I know a lot of people left after they restructured they pay plan and the hew hires get their $1000 bonus so I'm confused as to how it saves them money. I guess they are thinking they are about to have another exodus when the bonuses are given out and the new people won't be there long enough to qualify for the next quarterly bonus.
d~~~~> scratching my head
Anybody heard of
Any information would be helpful. TIA
Yea, but what is said and what is heard are different. NM
NM
I heard that!
Just a few that get to me...along with the phrase "24/7, 365"... Not sure why that one gets on my nerves, but it does! "Team player" is another one! and the best yet...to me, my boss uses the phrase that she is going to "tickle" something...meaning mark it for future reference (I think).. not really sure about that phrase either!
Must not have done much. I never heard of it and I'm okay this a.m.
I usually get socked by everything down the pike with my AVG.
What is it about? Never heard of it.

I have never heard of them, but you should
try posting this on the companies board and maybe someone there can help. Also, it might not be soon enough for you. Try googling the words "opinions on Entente Health Care" and that might help. Good luck!
Never heard of them. Sorry. nm

Yes I have heard of this, but the
pay was very low.
I have heard that it is about 85%
85% for no spaces compared to spaces being counted. Not sure if that is a correct number. I know there is a chart somewhere that breaks it all down.
Never heard of them
That is odd. I live in Arkansas and have never heard of them. Are they new? Let us know if you do hear anything about them.
I have not heard of this before? Can you tell us more.
and in fact wondered to myself about specializing in maintaining flower gardens for the sick and elderly who haven't the strength to do it but want it just the same.
I have never heard of these, but this is exactly what I need. I'm going to ask about them. Have
xx
sorry I mean heard
nm
I heard that also
I believe it has something to do with benefiting farmers and their crops, but I could be wrong. I think that was the reason it got started in the first place.
I heard about them
I heard about this company, giving all their work to India and not paying any one on time. Please be aware of this guys!
I have never heard of that but perhaps...sm
Hibiclens would be better than Betadine, I would think....plus Betadine stains and Hibiclens does not. *S*
Fresh blade to shave that area though - I know this because I no longer have the bumps since using the fresh blades.
Never heard of that.

Wow - now I have heard it all lol

What I have heard is this ..
The test is comprehensive and the difference is that there is less emphasis placed on the transcribing of reports in the test and more emphasis placed on your body of knowledge. It requires that you have at least two years of acute care experience to take it. We pay a .01 per line higher rate for CMTs at my company and that works out to be 12.00 a day extra for your production requirement or $60 per week or $240 per month. I find that our MTs think it is well worth it. Additionally, with the average age of MTs being 58, I'd say that your grandfathered CMTs are dwindling in the workplace as they retire and those left are tested CMTs but a different formatting situation.
