no, plenty of jobs out there that
plus benefits. Keep looking.
There are plenty more jobs if you have a degree
I live in Atlanta. If you go to craigslist.org right now and look under the admin. jobs section...there are dozens of jobs that pay 50,000 or more if you have a degree...in anything.
There are many jobs in many different fields that pay well. In many many cases, they just want the person to have a degree, it doesn't matter in what. The ad just says...must have a bachelor's degree.
I'm currently an MT and will graduate in May with a degree in Psychology. I intend to apply for some of those 50,000+ administrative jobs and feel very confident that I will get one.
well, plenty of doctors get jobs and don't know
English. I'm beginning to believe there are no physicians who are actually English speaking as a primary language anymore. They're almost all ESL. 
There are plenty other companies out there...sm
You don't have to put up with this. Read the boards closely and check out the Jobs Forum. Best of luck to you.
There are still plenty of companies
that value patient safety more than their greed and don't use that awful VR. Find a better company.
There are still plenty of companies willing to pay for advertising
on the TV and radio. Besides, I'd never pay for radio or TV. That's just silly.
There are plenty of online companies set up this way also-nm

I agree, but there are plenty of companies that don't - sm
Can still put food on the table working somewhere else. 
Plenty of rad work out there - try the companies that specialize in it. sm
I have been with Keystrokes for 4 years and love it. I have radiology-only accounts, plenty of work and get paid well. The hospital I worked for outsourced to them and they hired me right away. Best move I ever made.
My sister is also an MT and works for another company doing rad but runs out, so be careful that the company you go with has a lot of rad-only accounts.
there are NOT plenty of companies who don't outsource, directly or indirectly.
as for you calling others "idiots" your credibility is gone. hope you are careful where you shop and what you buy regarding your loyalty to not participating in companies who offshore. good luck. hope you have plenty of time and plenty of money.
Which companies do we know do NOT offshore?

re: Which companies do we know do NOT offshore?
Transcend.
If all they had was the offshore companies
to transcribe, do you know how unhappy the M.D.'s would be. They are already complaining. There would be enough jobs if no one worked for the offshoring ones. Idealistic? Yes, but.............
Companies that offshore should have to pay a

Nope. The last 2 jobs I've had do not offshore...nm

You can thank offshoring and the companies who offshore for most of this. SM
Been in the business well over 20 years and I am working twice as hard for half as much. It started with offshoring and the big MTSOs who bolted the US like their pants were on fire. They used the excuse that were not enough US MTs. LIES. All LIES. They forced the smaller MTSOs to charge less. We got paid less. Many of the smaller MTSOs got gobbled up by the Squid (MQ). Now there are only one or two superpowers and they all offshore. Some of them lie about it, some are very open. This business is not even close to what it should be as far as making a living. 
So many companies offshore that there aren't
enough companies that don't to take on the displaced MTs. Standing up for what you believe in is a good thing, but when it comes to putting food on the table you do what you have to do and then you have those that just don't care, give them a paycheck and that is all that matters.
They also try to place you with companies that offshore.
t
There are good companies that do not offshore -hopefully will never have to.
nm
I know of 2 companies, neither of whom offshore, that are slammed with
overflow from the MQ shutdown. I think clients are looking for anyone that works on platforms they use to pick up the slack.
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!
If we boycott working for companies that offshore,
boycott medical providers that offshore, and write to our politicians, maybe we can change things. I won't go to any local doctor that uses an offshored transcription outsource. Hit 'em where it counts, right in their big fat wallets. They put us out of work and reduced our wages, so why do we owe them any loyalty? Why should we pay higher medical bills when they're too cheap to pay us what we're worth? Pretty soon, we'll all be on unemployment, foodstamps and Medicaid. One way or another, they'll have to cough up.
This is not a new market. Is being done with all offshore companies I have ever worked for. nm
:+
all 3 major credit-reporting companies offshore
Equifax
Experian
TransUnion
all 3 offshore your information
there's just no fighting it by refusing to do biz with them
the only fight to hold is with the govt for allowing this ridiculous practice
Working for offshore owned companies and feeling

I have an idea...we can picket those facilities who use companies that offshore. sm
Every patient going in and coming out of that hospital/facility will know their private medical record is going offshore to be transcribed and therefore, there is risk of identity theft, lack of privacy, etc Just like those for ProLife and the like.
I think that will bring attention to the matter!
I know a huge hospital system in my town outsources their TX to MQ, who is now CBay, and now everything will be offshore. I think I will make my point and concerns when I have picket signs outside the President's window in a public area, so as not to be trespassing.
Free Speech in America.....right!!!
AAMT/AHDI is run by and for the management of companies that offshore!
I too used be a member and an officer in the local chapter. I too attended all the activities. I have since let my CMT lapse. Never once has being a CMT earned me a better job or more money, it's all about the experience and the quality of work you can produce, not whether or not you're a CMT!
Today is different and you cannot fight companies who LEGALLY can offshore work.
So all Americans refuse to buy goods, shop at stores, or work for companies who offshore. That leaves a mess. Do you realize a lot of American companies are actually owned by foreigners? Get real and move into 2005. You are going to spend a lot of time boycotting once you do the research. I doubt you will be able to shop or work at all.
I guess you forgot about India and all the other offshore companies they deal with, ASR and EMR.
That is the plan. They have hired all management lately that have been involved very heavily with overseas companies. Now why do you think that is. I dont think you see the whole plan here.
Bad news today regarding taxing companies who offshore..Microsoft SM
says they will hire more offshore employees and cut US employees because of the cost. This could cause our jobs also to go to offshore companies.

Anyone want to share what companies allows cherry pickers? I am in between jobs and looking ..
I do not want to work for a company that allows that..
Search on the Companies or New Student board for course info. Jobs are available all over the US and
.

Thank you.

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

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.
