I mean, how ridiculous is that. Letting a 14.5 year old to get more experience. Sheesh. Let her drive at 16 with you and let her drive alone at 18, if you want her to have more experience. There's a reason why the driving age is 16, not 14.

Daughter is vegetarian. I cook a turkey and she hits the side dishes. (sm)
We do pretty well with this. I just make sure I have some of her favorites so she still feels like she is having a feast.
I saw a picture someone made of a "turkey" they had formed out of raw veggies. I think the basic form was one of those rounded shaped loaves of bread and the veggies were on toothpicks. the head and some tail feathers were made from construction paper. It seemed like an entertaining idea especially if you had small children around.
Stand up and what get fired. Lose benefits and lose my house. Can't risk it.
I wish I could. That is why this business is as bad as it is. We can't afford to not work, so we settle for whatever gets thrown at us.
Criminal and Civil Resources
Hi Becka ,
I'm sorry to hear about your difficulties. It sounds like this Robin person (I don't know anything about her other than what I have seen you post here) if these claims are true (I have no reason to doubt they are) is committing theft and fraud. Contacting the Labor Board (federal and state) suggestion is a good idead , but if she is doing this across state lines (that is she is in one state and conducting business with people residing in other states) she is subject to criminal prosectuion by the federal government. I would suggest you go to the U.S. Attorney's office nearest you and see about filing a federal criminal complaint against here. Of course , you also have an avenue for recovery of wages owed you by here through the state / federal district courts , as well.
Civil Service/Government MT Jobs?
Hi all, I am wondering if any of us work as an MT for any government agencies, V.A. hospitals, military bases, etc. And if so, how is the pay rate. Is the hiring process difficulty. THANKS!
I am going broke, looking for a more lucrative 2008.
Geez. We can't even conduct civil communications in this country
...or have civil discourse or intelligent argument. It goes to name calling every time. That is SO embarassing to our country.
The "troll" name calling and other such juvenile antics/responses and the like. Embarassing. People should try and engage in respectful disagreement. No one will listen to you if you're calling them names like an ignoramous. (Note the use of word "LIKE", implying "similar to", not saying you are ignorant.) Have some self respect and do better than that.
And NO one was "attacking" anyone. Lighten UP. If you're that miserable, for God's sake, change careers.
Have you noticed how many hits the ads have?

So, when the poop hits the fan..sm
who is going to get to take the flak for this mistake... besides the patient?
36 hits doesn't necessarily mean anything.
If there were 30,000 hits on Google, I'd think it legitimate. However, 30 hits could mean that there are 30 misspellings or 30 idiots out there making up words. Or it could be a real word. Normo is a combining form; however, reflexic is not in any of my dictionaries. (Merriam, Taber's, Dorland's, Stedman's) If the account's verbatim, use it. Otherwise, tag it.
Better Business Bureau BBB.ORG 39 hits of
Ameriplan with UNSATISFACTORY ratings. Do more investigating before you waste your money on an MLM scam, and please don't tell me to check it out because I already did two years ago.
THE HITS KEEP COMING-NEW PROBLEM AS OF OCT 1ST
You probably received an email from your supervisor about full time meaning you HAVE TO produce for 40 hours a week to be full time. That means, if you take any time off without pay (because you only have 80 hours of PTO a year) for ANYTHING (sick, funeral, whatever the emergency), you will no longer be a full time employee, which means no benefits at all.
The Eagles- Greatest Hits. nm

If a post gets so many hits on it, it gets the flame.
Not sure what the magic number is though.
IMO - no. If he hits you once, he will hit you again. It will not matter what religion you believe

Good way to drum up hits. nm

Now that hits the nail on the head!
You said that right.
'MEDICAL TRANCRIPTION SUCKS."
It is the only job I have ever had where I actually do 25% of my work for FREE because my employer SAID IT WAS MY JOB.
And every day these companies are more creative looking for new and improved ways to bleed the MTs for more of our hard earned money.
And that IS the reality of this business.
It's a good way to get lots of hits on your post!

20,400 hits on Google plus an entry in thefreedictionary.com

Since you are new, just wait. Newbies have to wait. sm
Just because you said a "doctor's office" that narrows it down. No national work for private doctor's offices. It is all acute care. Just wait. They will let you know how you are doing.
suggest entering word in google-got 30 hits-nm

Someone answered on this below, that thing pops up when it has had a lot of hits -see the # of views
probably set for 100 or something like that. So when it have however many views, the little fire springs up indicating is "hot" and has been looked at a lot!
Lawsuit MQ
Have not heard a single peep about what is current on the big MQ lawsuit. Still being pursued? This is too big not to hear from anyone about updates .... anybody? I followed this for a long time in November/December/Jan, then POOF! Realize that the wheels spin slowing in legal-ville, but sure would like it if somebody could throw us some crumbs of information.
And if it has just fizzled out ... SAY IT AIN'T SO!!!!!
Lawsuit MQ
Apparently it is still on.... I just received a letter today from Frank regarding holding on to all materials regarding MQ, e-mails, contracts, etc. So guess it is just moving slow as all legal proceedings do.
lawsuit
I have to vent. I asked a question a few days ago, wondering if anybody heard anything about the big MQ lawsuit. Now we all know that this is BIG. But, not only did I only read maybe two responses (thank you, responders) to my specific question, but I have also not heard anything from anybody ELSE on this board regarding what is up with that.
I am wondering: a) is it under tight wraps and hush-hush for open discussion; b) do we have damage control by MQ intercepting posts of an informational nature on this; or c) SOMETHING ELSE?
Sure would appreciate if someone threw us a crumb. Thanks in advance from the mushroom crew!
lawsuit
I don't know details, but it has to do with line counts not being correct and being cheated out of $$ and not being paid correctly.
what there is a lawsuit over?
??
MQ lawsuit
I got in on the class action deal almost a year ago and I haven't noticed any difference in how I'm treated, but then when the bosses change so often they chew you out for not working on your scheduled day off because they didn't know, well.........
Lawsuit
I think the reason we all got checks, was because of the lawsuit. Now, they can say that there were slight computer glitches or whatever, and that they have corrected them. I think their plan is for this to make them look like there was a small mistake and that they corrected it and make up for it.
However, this is ridiculous. In DocQmanage, they can do whatever the heck they want to - AND THEY DO!!! So, for the people who are saying that they feel sure that they are being paid for spaces, maybe they are; but, I assure you, most people are not being paid for spaces and other things as well.
This is just a pre-trial 'make MQ look good' thing. There is no way in the world that we would have received these checks if there had been no lawsuit filed.
We will be your fifth name for a lawsuit
If you want a fifth name, please email us.

MQ lawsuit letter
Yes, I received the letter yesterday. Sounded like this investigation is going to take quite some time if they have to subpoena transcriptionist's records. I just threw it in the round file :)
If there is an MQ merger or lawsuit, in the end, how do you think
Question on MQ lawsuit. I do not want this to be a
thread for flames or negatives, just would like a brief and simple explanation of what the actual issue(s) are for the lawsuit.
Can't be related to MQ lawsuit
My ipay statement said is was for a DEP adjustment, but the majority of the lines in question were done on the various old platforms, Medwrite, Enterprise, etc...remember it goes back to 1998.
I got the ipay notice but no check or letter yet. I have direct deposit but nothing in there either
MQ checks & lawsuit
Let's not forget, the checks can not be 100% reimbursement for all lines jipped out of, they only cover an error on DEP, a LOT of the issues with the atty's go back to 1998, before DEP was even a thought process, so it really can not be for the cheated lines totally.
This would be a legitimate lawsuit....
I have seen this situation before and, believe me, you have a major lawsuit on your hands and this would not be a frivolous one like so many are. You are talking about a medical professional who has taken monies up front to perform a service that he did not perform, he is withholding monies owed back to you (which is unlawfully stealing), and he fradulently dictated a report on a procedure that he did not perform. You need to consult with an attorney and see what the statute of limitations are in your state as far as the face lift aspect, but as far as the fradulent making up of a report and keeping monies owed to you, he needs to be helpd accountable. This means he has probably done this before many times to other people. The hospital is at huge fault here and is at risk for a major lawsuit. The administrator of this hospital needs to know this first hand from you or your attorney. Please don't put this off. This guy needs to be brought down to earth. He is probably a big money maker for the hospital and they won't discipline him unless you do something to start the ball rolling. If the hospital is a privately-owned company, they will pay attention to what you're saying more than if they are a non-profit hospital where the doctors tend to run the show.
No lawsuit even considered
I nor my friend have even considered a lawsuit. I just get mad at being pre-DISQUALIFIED no matter how good I am at my work. I have had to deal with this problem all my life, so it is nothing new. It is just that I have never been visually disqualified for anything before in regard to work and this was a real eye-opener to me.
And for the record. Morbid obesity is a legal handicap and so is being left handed which I am both. It is just sad. Oh well... I will continue to work where I am appreciated for my job well done...and so will my friend....:) They pay me way more anyway.

Keep contact at a minimum. Self doubt hits and it is when we tend to fall back into the web
Good luck to you. Expect highs and lows. Best to get professional counseling so they remind you of who you are and where you want to be when he tries to convince you that you are crazy.
Did anybody else get a letter from MQ about the MT's lawsuit? Any thoughts if you have?
nm
I received a letter from MQ CEO regarding the MT lawsuit
They have acknowledged the existance of lawsuit but in their CEO spin states only 3 (THREE) MTs are part of this action. I know I'm not part of the original 3 and I have joined the class action so either MQ CEO is blowing smoke or has his head up his A$$. Either way, it is typical of MQ CEO.
Find us the details of this lawsuit.

you sound as if this MQ lawsuit makes you happy (sm)
in some sick and twisted way! Why would this make you happy. Not that anything significant will come of it, I mean come on, do you really think MQ is going down the tubes? Don't get your hopes up, honey! You know, your posting name is very fitting...mushroom=fungus!
So What if lawsuit makes poster happy. So WHAT?
Why are you UNHAPPY about lawsuit.
BTW, when you come down to tearing apart and anonysmous posters screen name you have lost any sort of credibility or argument you know.
That is a whole different story than stating you "joined" the lawsuit. Its how
so much of the original MQ class action lawsuits got so screwed up information-wise to the rest of us MTs. You were probably one of the originals, proudly claiming you "joined" the lawsuit, while hundreds of us scrambled around trying to figure out what we missed and how to "join". That was the huge fiasco months back. You are misinforming when you state you "joined" anything, cause there is NOTHING to join at this time. Personally, I think its just "pomp" on your part, actig like you're "in the know", and making some kind of martyr stand. There is NOTHING to join, so don't misrepresent it until such time as there IS something to join. Makes the rest of the poor MTs feel worse - MQ gives no info, and then everyone else but them has "joined" a suit. Not defending MQ - just wish folks would not "spin" the truth - same games MQ allegedly likes to play! But you, naturally, feel justified!
me too - I figured it must be the lawsuit as I am not an employee any longer nm
....
My girlfriend was part of that CU-7 lawsuit. She forgot all about it. SM
She went to the mailbox one day and there was a check for $7000 in there! That thing really messed her up and she had to have a hysterectomy and surgery for a perforated uterus, all kinds of stuff. She probably deserved more.
Or a corporate restructuring to head off lawsuit awards.
