I got thrown out, lost my connection

Posted By: me on 2005-11-23
In Reply to: Transcend - I had a good day

called my team leader, who was very nice, and never got back in.  3 hours ago, still have not heard from IT. I am going to stick it out, though, hoping things will work out.

Being able to do anything thrown at you

has hurt me with 2 MTSOs in the past.  What ends up happening is that because I *can* do anything and have the attitude to be willing to do anything, when someone else *won't* do what is needed, I get pulled off my regular work to do what no one else will do.  This can do several things.  It can decrease my line count because I get no samples and have to slow down to nail every word to create a normal for several MDs on reports I can do but haven't done in a while.  This decreases my productivity and my income.  After I do this good samaritan act, I find out they only wanted me to do that because they needed templates to send out to all the MTs so anyone else can do them....all at the request of the hospital because the hospital asked for me to do this as they felt my work was so much better than what they got from anyone else.  Now I feel ripped out because if I had known I was making normals for the entire account, I would have not made them available to the MTSO without negogiating a fair price for my product.


That underhandedness makes me feel disillusioned and eventually causes me to leave.


JMHO


Which will probably be thrown out
Nothing that GP said was slanderous in any way. Of course, there is still the expense of retaining a lawyer, etc., but I highly doubt this case will stand. It is a scare tactic and they need to be met head on.
Sure, have lost patience, never lost sense of acting

Yes, I have thrown in the towel already - sm
Been an MT for nearly 11 years.  Though I love the work and am good at it, I cannot stomach the fact that I make a little less every year due to no pay increases and threats of even reduced line rates for the same amount of work.  What other career do you know where the pay actually goes down every year due to no cost of living increases?  Time for some change for me. 
You are the only one that has thrown that number out there, no one else
You my dear are lacking. I never said I did that much an hour. I said for a half hour it was 446 and then I got straight and stuck with that crap. I love VR, type fast but I don’t have to work now, unlike years past. This is just my chump change, as someone called it below.
Well, did you tell them you got thrown off and didn't even get to take the test?

why the water bucket being thrown on the fire
?
I never got to finish. After it asked me how much I was making, I got thrown off. -nm

QT lost jobs lost dreams
webmedx is hiring but they may already have enough people, I got a job there last week.  No matter what kind of bull you are hearing from management or otherwise is a lie.  The account is gone, please look for new jobs
Puhahaha! I'd probably end up starving to death or gathering enough vegetables being thrown to op
my own produce stand. Thanks for the chuckle. XDDDD
MDI-FL - MDI-MD - NO CONNECTION

There is no connection between MDI-MD and MDI-FL.  I have not heard good things about FL. 


I have been with MDI-MD for over 2 years, have never run to of work if I was willing to type a secondary account, have had very positive supervision and QA, and am making an excellent line rate.  I wish I had found this company earlier in my career because it's great. 


Unfortunately, I am just totally burned out on transcription in general.  This pay rate is what is keeping me here another year or 2 until retirement.


 


No connection as far as I know...is there?

FutureNet/MQ connection?

I know this has been brought up many times, but on the MQ web site there is a question to Frank that states which programs you call which office for and guess what -- FutureNet was mentioned as one of their platforms. 

I always felt they were connected, I knew Carole fromYOG used to have something to do with Futurenet and then she sold to MQ so......


 


 


 


Is there any connection between MQ & Spryance ??
Just curious !!!!
transcription connection
I was just wondering if anyone could help me with some information. Does anyone know how I can get ahold of MaryEllen Newman at the transcription connection in Ohio. Does the company sill exist. Any help would be greatly appreicated.
I think it was Transcription Connection, known as TCI. nm

DTS internet connection
Do you know if they allow a dial up or satellite internet connection?  Do they have employee status or IC?
transcription connection
Anyone ever worked for transcripotion connection? They are out of Ohio. 
Keystrokes connection? sm
Do you have accounts that allow satellite internet connection? Thanks.
Transcription Connection, Inc.
Anyone work for Transcription Connection, Inc. out of Ohio? 
What is the connection between AAMT and HPI?

What is the connection between AAMT and HPI? I was printing off articles to send to my Aunt. The ads reminded me of a circle jerk site the way they were saying use our materials AAMT will certify your school. 


 


 


What kind of connection do you need?

I'm still waiting for a fast connection (one is coming within 5 months), but sometimes go to WIFI hot spots to work.  Does TransTech's platform work with any kind of connection?  Some of the MTs that used to work where I am working now have bailed to TT and seem happy and relieved. 


Does Transtech have any offshore affiliations?


Do they allow you to stay on familiar accounts or do they jumble your accounts and authors? 


 


3 computers 1 connection
Does anybody work on 3 computers at the same time with only 1 DSL connection? Could you tell me how to do it so each is secure from the other and compliant? Thanks in advance for any information.
Satellite connection
I am moving and looking for companies that allow internet work using a satellite connection rather than a DSL  or cable co. as neither of these are available in the area.  Thanks if anyone works using satellite or knows of companies that allow this. 
Transcription Connection/TCI sm
They've got a new pilot program starting.  Anyone hear about it?  I'm not interested but wondering if this is the old TCI or is it a refurbished one?
Transcription Connection sm
They dare to ask for verification of a per line rate?  As an IC you can charge what you want to who you want - I cannot believe what some companies ask for and what some ICs are willing to provide.
Transcription Connection
Transcription Connection in Lynchburg Ohio has been a good company to work for. Smaller so it's a little more personal. Good pay, several work types, all IC.
Connection Problems
I had some problems yesterday that worked themselves out, but today around 11:30 I started having trouble. None of MDI's suggestions have worked for me thus far!
Transcription Connection hands down.
Logs, logs, more logs, spreadsheets. Everything done manually. Tons of scanned patient lists. Even had to look up addresses so the husband could do the envelopes. Insist you count every report with the Word counter (a ripoff). 1/4 of your day spent on crap not included in your line count.
Who pays 9/10 cpl with/sp that allows dial up connection? nm

Transcription Connection in Ohio

Would not ever recommend this company to anyone. Run, run as fast as you can.


 


TRANSCRIPTION CONNECTION IN OHIO

In reply to your post, TCI is an outstanding company to work for. I have always been paid well and paid always on time. They expect quality work from all employees and provide quality dictation to their clients as well as TAT times under 24 hours. All clients are pleased. All MT's employed are VERY happy with TCI.


Any information on Transcription Connection

Transcription Connection out of Ohio...sm
Any info good or bad?  Thanks.
I do believe there is a connection to India from everything that I have found. Other than that,
not much to add.
Companies that definitely allow satellite connection. sm.

I have done an extensive search here and have noted the names of a few companies that allow MTing by satellite besides MedQuist. I'd just like to see if there have been any recent additions of companies that I can go this route with.


Yes, I do know the limitations of most companies with regards to the satellite connection but it is the only high-speed I have available and I need to make a change from MQ and just need to know what companies' systems are compatible with satellite.


Thanks in advance.


Didn't know Transolutions had any connection

I don't think the Transolutions mentioned has any connection to (sm)
the Transolutions based here in the United States. When I clicked on the link of Transolutions from the above website, it brought up a completely different Transolutions than the US-based company?!? Not sure what is going on, but it sure doesn't look like the same company...
Does Proscript pay for internet connection? TIA
xxxx
Then when we MT's are **thrown on** an account because of lack of work on our account

What is so hard to understand about that? 


Then we have that account info filed away in a folder in our Outlook Express by name of account and can look at past emails sent out regarding that account.  Not fun to be tossed on an account that you have never seen NOR ever received an email on.  Sounds like business to me. 


I believe Transcription Connection in Ohio uses it for some of their accounts.

Does anyone know if a KVM switch would be usable here to have a net connection while working? nm

companies accepting satellite connection
Cannot get DSL/cable (no way). Need suggestions on companies hiring with satellite connection. Thank you.
Since DRC was purchased by Acusis, the Indian connection IS there. Look at

Any info on Transcription Connection (Ohio)?

I think the COO, Tammy, tried to explain their connection on here a week or two ago...
She sounded very nice..something about taking over their overseas offshoring company's contracts etc..I honestly still do not understand what they are doing unless they got bought out. Why else would you supposedly phase out some of your business and start another, other than maybe they have gotten a bad rap while doing business as Synthescribe.  I'm just concerned about going forward because another MT commented how bad the CEO was, and she is the same one at AAmT, or whatever its initials are LOL
MTinGA...Do you work for Transcription Connection in Ohio? (sm)
If so, do they hire SE? How is the pay? Thanks!
I wonder if I have a slow internet connection and if that would be what is causing my slowness.

Satellite is not a stable connection. Not in terms of HIPAA or sm
privacy but in terms of stability of speed and signal. Because the signal waxes and wanes, it can cause disruptions in connection. They might not seem evident when you are surfing the net or checking your bank balance, but a VPN connection such as one that is needed to do transcription for many hospitals needs a solid, stable connection. This connection can be fast or slow, as long as it does not go faster and then slower and then faster and then out and then in. A satellite signal does this constantly, by the second, and it causes disruption in the flow.


Transcription Connection, Inc. is in Ohio. Found on another web site. Want 5 yrs of experience. nm
