I think anyone whose accounts have been transferred to Amherst needs to email Amherst and also to
let their supervisors know at their office if it is still open what is happening here. We also have to deal with no weekend pay, no holiday pay, NO WORK so expected to sit around for holidays for nothing and NO WORK and their QA and no blanks situation when we are on 8 accounts. This is an absolutely ridiculous situation and Corporate needs to be made aware of it and if they do nothing then I hope MQ loses all its MTs and accounts for all the blanks and poor quality work that does back to the hospitals. That is always what happens when you do this.
Maybe that is where all my work goes. They sure overloaded my accounts in Amherst.
:
If I'm an idiot you're an uneducated turbo-idiot

At least I have the brains to see when it's time to change directions instead of crying about those bad, bad MTSO's and their foreign employees. Boo, hoo, hoo!



On my best accounts, about 25 min/hour and steadily.
lol

Good old Amherst and couple with their ridiculous QA point plan. They people in AMHERST ARE NUTS. I
hope MQ loses all of its good MTs and then the hospitals can yell about quality and leave. My account just disappeared after being transferred up there and then find they have hired new people for it.
Maybe all of MQ will be like Amherst or maybe so many of us at Amherst have not work they gave us
other accounts in other offices. They sure overhired but a lot have quit because of no work. One thing for sure, you wont get the truth out of your supervisor.
IDIOT!!!!

What an idiot.
Then what are you doing coming to the MT board if you are not an MT. I never said that I am most MTs! Read what the OP posted and then read mine. Are you stupid? I won't need any luck in finding a job. Worry about yourself and get a life.
Your not an idiot...sm
You are just giving your opinion. Nobody said she had to take anybodys advice. She can read and make up her own mind. I am glad you were able to remove yourself from that situation and I hope she also finds a way. Have a good day.
don't think I'm an idiot, but...
can you tell me what it's called?  I just looked at target online, and the only things I saw were CDs and a toy :)  Thanks a lot for the suggestion and at 10 bucks, I'm definitely looking into it!!
So I'm an idiot...

But I thank you for posting information that we all can learn from.  I know very little ctrl commands and this has just helped a great deal.  Thanks!


Pays to read these posts!


Well, if you were working for my co., then you'd be the idiot because
usually the 30 seconds or less are doctors saying, "okay transcriptionist, please use my normal template for a left total knee replacement...left knee...no complications...thanks!

And then I get 80 lines - can you say CHHEEEEEESE??


Wow, what a freaking idiot.
What is there to back up lady? I am coming to this board to see if anyone get the letter and check. I can't back anything up if I have no documentation. All I know is that there is a statement in IPAY and not a deposit into my bank account. I called payroll and that is what they told me. Came here to post it to see what people are saying. You make no sense and I wonder how you even make it out of bed in the morning.
No reasoning with an idiot, so I won't try.
lllll
Drunk idiot at that!!! LOL

You see, there is no reasoning with an idiot. nm

You are an idiot if you think the people
with the 9 bedroom homes on the beach are the ones needing help. In fact, most homes are not even 9 bedrooms in Florida. Even the real expensive houses are no more than 3-4 bedrooms. Get your facts straight. I am speaking from NOT being on the beach, in Houston. When hurricane Rita came through, we were flat broke after buying water, etc. When we lost power, we lost all of our food other than what we ate during the first few days. Some of us had to work and could not get out 3-4 days in advance. After that, you couldn't get out, and I live in Houston not on the beach!! I would have had to take 2 cars to get everyone out, which we were willing to do. Did you see the freeways. It was taking 24-48 hours for people to make a 4 hour trip! There were animals, kids and adults who died on the freeway trying to get out. If we would have attempted to leave, we would have still been on the freeway when the storm hit. We felt safer in our home. Thank God it shifted East though. You speak out of ignorance, as do most people who are so hateful. It IS the goverment's job to help every American in need. That is our God give right when we pay money into the goverment. The goverment is there to protect their people, and that is part of it. You cannot pick and choose who is worthy! You have no idea what their situation is. As I said before, you speak from ignorance.
Some idiot will do it though either for experience or

It's from the internet you idiot

!


How about zillions of accounts. MQ has these accounts so overloaded even the new hires dont have any
work. I would love to read some of these reports and then they expect perfect QA and no blanks. Did they lose their minds completely.
Depends on the pay and account. My lowest average is $15.52 an hour (roughly 182.6 lines an hour) w
;'
1850 lines per 8 hour shift. 15.00 hour - no real requirement

Before he turned into a complete idiot.
I haven't seen any of his recent movies since he split with Nicole Kidman.  Of course, I saw "Days of Thunder" and "Far and Away".  Read the whole post, then try taking an English comprehension course.  Troll.
No on is an idiot and you should be ashamed of yourself for calling anyone that. nm

My dad is an immature, selfish idiot.
Entertained himself by making fun of me and laughing at me when I got upset, doesn't know how to carry on even the simplest conversation, has been telling the same tired jokes for 40 years for lack of anything to say and goes to bed at 2PM because there are people in the house and he can't keep up with a discussion like a normal human being. I grew up with no self esteem and married the first abusive, selfish, hateful idiot that I came across because I thought that was all the better I could do.

Thank goodness I saw what was going on with me and why and have been straightening out my life for the past 12 years or so and avoid my dad (and the rest of my dysfunctional family) at all cost.

My dad = a waste of oxygen.
if it is feasable, split that 6-hour shift into two 3-hour shifts. sm
i work a split shift and find that i am much better able to stay focused and get more work done that way. also, being 3 months pregnant you have gone through the very tiring time of pregnancy and you should start seeing an energy perk before long.
I refuse to validate the idiot Cruise
or to enrich him with one penny of my hard-earned money. I will not be seeing his movie or any other project in which he is involved. I feel the same way about Johnny Depp since the horrible, hateful statements he has made about America and Americans. They are free to speak their minds, but I am also free to choose not to reward their hatefulness.
If you're calling me an idiot, you must be one of the ones I'm talking about.

It's called being an inconsiderate self-absorbed idiot
they don't realize how irritating it is for someone to have to listen to that crap. They just don't care.
You idiot, there are plenty of jobs with companies that DON'T offshore. Go somewhere else and

quit your raggin on this board. 


WOOOW. You are the biggest idiot i have ever heard...GET A LIFE!

Are you watching Fox News. Idiot surfers out in the ocean.
l
You're an idiot. You asked for help on a public forum
then get angry over the responses? OMG, do you even have a life? LOL

I don't care if you are a mensa or a full blown idiot...
like MensaMT who tells us she is awesome at everything she does and everything she touches is gold, then you deserve to be flamed! All those things may be true, but come on...nobody wants to hear you tell about how wonderful you are. There are plenty of MTs out there doing all she is doing - with a much less IQ - who don't have to tell a soul!
I start an hour or 2 early and then take an hour or 2 for dinner -nm

At 200 lines a day for 6 cents, you are making $1.20 a day or 0.15 hour for an 8 hour day!!!--cm
Did you mean 2,000? Even then you would only be making $1.50 if you work 8 hours a day.
$32/hour? You said $36/hour on an earlier post. Either way would be great. n/m

You sound like a complete and total idiot! I don't use that word lightly!

The accounts are old and she keeps her accounts TRUSTING she hired the right MTs
who if in doubt will ask questions regarding reports. No one can find all mistakes in all reports and that is human to have a report with perhaps a typo. You think anyone reads through all the reports of a national company before they get to the hospital? Not a chance. Some random QA is supposed to correct all mistakes? Not hardly. Doctors/dictators make mistakes too. We all do. So do QA people. So the thing is this person hires good people who are trustworthy, the hospital likes the way she does their account and life goes on quite nicely w/o hovering editors/QA people. BTW, who QAs the QA people on your accounts. Ever wonder?
10 reports/hour or 25 markers/hour

Is anyone out there working for MQ in Amherst?


Amherst
How long have you been there?
Amherst MQ

Yes you may be happy with Amherst, you have been there for 7 years and maybe back then it was a good office to work for some reason your acounts have not been overloaded with MT's. Most of us on the NE, after our offices were closed, we were transferred to Foxboro or Amherst, with our accounts and we were lied to from day one. We were all told that we would stay with our accounts and that no other MT's would be assigned to them, it was just a transfer to another office and really nothing would chance. Well I guess we have all learned our lesson. I have been with MQ for many years and unti I was tranferred was happy with the company. I had 2 accounts, never ran out of work, could get 15000 lines in a blink of an eye and here comes the transfer and all XXX breaks out. Our accounts were all overloaded with MT's and we are out of work all the time, no shift differntials, no holiday pay, no bonus's, but then again it is hard to think about those things when there is no work. It boggles my mind when I am reading these postings and MT's are talking about being in 4 and 5 accts, never mind the MT's that are in 8 or 9 accounts, and I was told by my supervisor that there are MT's that have 12 and 13 accounts, WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE, but yet nothing is done at Amherst, nor is nothing done at Corp. I find it hard to believe that they have are not aware of the comments on this board concerning Amherst but then why should they care, they are all making a nice paycheck, and that includes the people at Amherst and the hiring just goes on and on. I have been there for over 10 months and since then from the postings, it seems like at least 2 other offices have been transferred there also, only adding to the problems. Too many Mt's and not enough work.


Is this a case of poor management of an office, I would think so. My friend was lucky enough to be transferred from Foxboro to MQ Ohio and the difference between these offices is like night and day. Amherst should spent some time at the Ohio office (before it closes, yet another bites the dust) and learns some lessons on how to run an office. All we want to do is work.


 


I would really like to know since the beginning of the year how many offices have already closed and how many will be closed between now and the end of the year and hopefully no more will be transferred to Amherst.


Please, Amherst, just let us earn a living!!!


 


 


MQ Amherst
I am leaving MQ for all the reasons recently posted. Not able to get a good count. Do not understand the logic behind this. I was hired specifically for weekends and nights. There usually isn't much left by then.

AMHERST AT IT AGAIN!
Those 2 are quite a team (K&T that is...) the latest STATS are in....with a lovely note asking us to do MORE than our minimum......oh, by all means...do more....but "no overtime please"....Yeah right!  They would love for us to be chained to our desks 24/7 just to keep everything nice and up to date for them....but when we're trying to work our "scheduled" hours....there's no work!  So tell me girls......why do you demand we work a "schedule"?   Maybe we should DEMAND work!!!! How I long for the days of a PRIMARY and SECONDARY again....I'd really like to tell you two where you can shove your turnaround time - you just don't have a clue...but how could you....you're not transcriptionists!  How dare you ask us to do more than our minimum, when we can't even get THAT in an 8 hour period and then add insult to injury by saying "no overtime, please"....Instead of helping out another region, why not help your OWN region out and give us all back our primary accounts and stop all of this nonsense already. 
Also moved to Amherst
All these different accounts every day - it's so hard to keep everything straight. I am so slow and less productive now - and who is there to call - do you know we got swallowed by Amherst and I have no contact information for anyone. It's so darn depressing!
Amherst/Corp
I know of at least 3 MT's that have written/emailed Corp about the work situation at Amherst and Foxboro and not one of them every rec'd a reply. One of the girls had been terminated for lack of work and MQ left a message on her answering machine to say that she was terminated and to make arrangements to return her equipment. The thing about this is that she had been in and out of the hospital, had made numerous calls  and faxes to Foxboro to update them about the situation, had been with MQ P/T for the last 7 years, so they knew that she was a reliable MT but yet do to the endless lack of communication at that office, they had the nerve to call and leave a message to terminate her. She wrote letters to everyone from the Foxbor office to Human Resources to the President himself and never heard a workd from anyone--so yes I would think that Corp has been told about Amherst/Foxboro but I really do not think that they care one way or the other. Life goes on and they can hire 10 new people to replace her and continue to flood the accounts so that we are always out of work--just like today
