I like the Sted's, and then buy the yearly upgrades to it, too. nm

That always happens with "system upgrades." nm

READ: Upgrades Coming! -- SM

MTStars will begin a major upgrade of our forum software starting on October 7th!  This upgrade process may take as long as a week.   Each forum/board will be upgraded; we will be working on 2 to 3 forums per day. 


Please be aware that you may experience problems accessing the boards during this time.  We are working very hard to ensure the process goes as seamlessly as possible.   As each board is upgraded, the posts will be starting with a new, clean slate!  This means that when a forum completes its upgrade, all the previous posts will be archived and accessible through the archive link. 


We are excited about the upgrade and, as soon as each board is complete, we want to hear your feedback and input on what you think about the upgrade as well as a “wish list” to see what YOU want that we can possibly provide!   Please send your feedback and comments to me directly (cher@mtstars.com) or be watching for the “Give Me Your Feedback” post that I make on the completed boards every 2-3 days. 


So, everyone get ready!  Change is coming and THIS change we really think you’re going to enjoy!

Well the one company uses an older version of DQS and has not upgraded to the last 1 or 2 upgrades.
That is my concern.  I am not sure where to look at the version I am on for the company with the lower version to see what it is.  I hope this works out okay. 
The upgrades for Meditech Magic make it very, very fast. I love it !

40+ yearly
That's my minimum. No I don't work all day, but I do work smart. I use an Expander for everything but a, and I save every doctor's dictation, especially if it is a surgery. That way I have almost half of the words already, and believe me, 60K isn't easy to make, but it's doable. However, I only have 2 accounts and have been on them for 18 months. That always helps.
I called the bank the check was drawn on and they said no upgrades at all to direct deposit and they
said that I was probably handed a line.  This latest stretch of the truth coupled with many others has me sending out resumes for a new change in 2006.  To me the writing is on the wall.  Though I really doubt they care if any of us leave.  I was on the same account for several years, suddenly switched without a reason which greatly impacted my pay, but yet find out from office staff my original account has plenty of work, so what gives?
Yearly Reviews
Does anyone knows if any of the transcription companies actually gives their MTs yearly reviews, feedback on their performance, and/or raises.

Average yearly pay?

If you are willing to share, how much money do you average per year working full-time as an MT?  I know it is not near what we used to make, but I just want to know just how bad it has gotten for us.


Put 30% of your pay away for yearly taxes. You will be fine! nm

I have always paid yearly with no penalties! (nm)

Is OSI the only company that gives yearly raises?
.
more than double my yearly salary
Always knew I worked harder than most - now I get paid like it.
Has anyone else seen ads for MT schools that promise 40,000 yearly? This doesn't appear to be tru
with my experience, at least starting out anyway.
What other profession do you know of that doesn't give a yearly raise?
The MTSOs raise their rates each year . . . . . . . .
Definitely need the Sted's Derm&Immuno Words and a Path&Lab Words to do derm. Lots of weirdness!

Sted's Ortho Words, a lab words book, at least 1 drug book, and your AAMT BOS 2nd
