I put my email at the top up there and no one cares enough to write. They just want to complain

Posted By: current THer on 2005-09-12
In Reply to: LOL Everyone I guess that says something good about a company is upper management. - no name (Mary S) not upper management

and tell untruths about this company. Some are a good fit, others not, but the things that I am reading are definitely not true. I would not worry about constant complainers. These people would not fit in anywhere and I am not upper management either nor am I lower management.

I would write them an email if it has been a couple of days.
Never hurt to try.
I will definitely complain.
I just joined them end of June and the first pay day is supposed to be July 9. Their accountant made a big excuse about direct deposit system not being in place but I did not enrol in their direct deposit - so I gave them a week.

Next paycheck is due on the 23rd.

I plan to look elsewhere --- this is so discouraging.
For all those who complain about
THIS is what this is all about. How would you feel if your company was run this way? If you don't work for OSi, stay out of it!!!!!!!!!!!
Already did - I never complain, just ask
nm
If you complain too much.
They will overhire and then you'll be sitting with no work. Which would you rather have? Do you get 1-1/2 for OT? How do they pay?

I've been working 6-1/2 to 7 days a week at my present job because of lots of work so I know how you're feeling, but I do have the choice of not working if I don't want to.
I'll never complain about MQ. nm

better than normal. don't complain
many only get 6
I have never heard anybody complain about
MTs are not fickle and as you stated in the end, different MTs prefer different types of work and some like variety. I think if they can make money, they are happy with that.

Why such a negative tone?
And then they complain about TAXES!!!
Give me a break.  You should pay double or triple the taxes of someone making 30 to 50,000. 
AND WE COMPLAIN ABOUT INDIA ...SM


I would take this as a gross insult if I had 1 year of experience, and I hope this is for VR.  Any MT even considering such an offer, either:


1.  Is in very dire straits, financially.  2. Doesn't value herself very much.  3. Is doing her fellow MTs, and herself/himself a great disservice.  All this abuse of MTs by the companies is done for one reason:  BECAUSE THEY CAN. (We let them).


 


I NEVER complain about having too much work

I love it. I flex and go with the flow. It's refreshing to know we can make up time and hours when it gets busy.


After working for a place that had no work for days on end and getting deeper into a hole while that company kept telling me the work would pick up (which it never did), I finally left. This company never let you make up hours. What you got, you got.


I ran out of work yesterday and today on my accounts for the first time since the July 4th holiday, but only have a couple hours to make up and I will do that.


I'm tired of the TT bashing, too. They're a great company. No complaints from me...EVER.  They bend over backwards to keep everybody happy, but you can never please some people. I think those people wouldn't be happy if they didn't have anything to complain about.


If no one likes it, they can leave. It leaves more work for me and I'll gladly take it.


Even with a set up like that some people still complain
I work with a similar set up only we can see which dictator it is. We are allocated a certain number of jobs at a time(the same for all of us) and you get what you get.

There have been some people complaining lately (and named me specifically as the cause) that they are not getting enough work. Well, I cannot help it if they choose to work at night and by that time I have done all the work, or most of it.

There is not much this time of year anyway, I'm getting less than 500 lines a day before it runs out.

It just irks me that they act like I am stealing their work! This is not a competition for me, its a paycheck.
I bet you complain about your wages
And it all can be traced to company waste, not to mention the economy. No time to be wasting money. As I said, this is MY opinion. We are allowed in this country to have freedom of speech and opinions, aren't we?
Complain when there is work, complain when there is no work.

if that is the case, then we cannot complain when
work goes overseas. If clients pay for inferior work, they may as well pay less huh? integrity, integrity, integrity.
I mean you have NO reason to complain about MW when there are companies like MQ-nm
nm
First, newbies complain about the fact
...then, when someone does hire them, the whine and cry that the account is too difficult. No wonder MTSOs prefer not to deal with newbies. This is a good way for you to learn.
If that is all you have to complain about you've got it made. And they

probably aren't licking the stamps as they just peel and stick them now. 


Does everyone find any reason to complain? nm

Who cares?
I can't even believe that all of you are wasting your time talking about how to spell the stupid word anyway. Don't you have something better to do with your time than argue about how to spell a word that really ISN'T a word? GET A LIFE!!!
WHO CARES
NM
NOBODY CARES!!!!
Enough already. Do you have enough work now? I am flooded with work for over 3 weeks now (not complaining, love it).
Who really cares..? I don't!!!. nm

who cares

17 yrs exp. and nobody cares
I'm so sick of seeing ads requiring mega years of experience in multiple specialties, working knowledge of various platforms and every conceivable toy already installed on your computer only to find out the pay is entry-level at best.
Here we go again … who cares? nm

Look out for #1, who cares about anyone else.
Sigh. Thank goodness our forefathers weren't as selfish as we've become.
don't complain about how your hospital has too much work - it will bite you in
the hiney!!!

You may end up losing your job to an outsource service and end up making less money with horrible benefits!! Count your blessings.
I'm new to Keystrokes and the pay has been early or on time. Can't complain about that! nm

Spheris has a private board where we can complain. SM
It won't help, but we can copmlain. Also, supervisors are quite helpful.

Seems communication at Transtech is lacking in some way.
I didn't complain, but got something from both the places I work sm
My PT job gave me a $30 gift card to target. My FT gave me $25 AMEX gift check. Both were sent in Christmas cards and both cards had been signed by everyone in the office.

No...not lots, but then I don't need lots. I really loved that ANYTHING was sent and the signed cards were a very nice touch.
I will. Hope you are right. Not sure who to complain to, but I'll figure it out.

Its why people complain about negativity on this board
Some people want to think that the people posting negative things here are just malcontents.  Sometimes, when a person speaks the truth, half a dozen other folks jump on to say its not the truth and everything is roses and rainbows.  Usually the truth is somewhere in the middle.  But some people would prefer to believe the sunshine being blown you-know-where by recruiters because they want to think they have lucked into a goldmine.  Well, its a crap shoot - maybe you did and maybe you didn't.  Each person's truth is going to hit them only after they are working the account.  So if she only wants to hear about the rainbows, let her have her fantasy.  Reality will come soon enough when she gets no paycheck.  Then she can pay her bills with all the rainbows.
Nobody cares where you work or what you think.

who cares if they are in india

i heard good things about them


But who really cares? Anyone that has been in this business
knows it takes awhile to get back to people!!!!! If every company came on this board to read their stats, it would be full of stats. Do we really want to see them? If we do, I urge Transolutions, Transcend, Medware, every company that posts to come to this board and say all this. Do we really want to know. The board would be full of statistics. Do we care? No!
Like who the heck cares if she is one or not?

CMT according to AAMT, who cares?
I attended the best MT school in my area in 1971. It was held in a very large medical center with a R.N. supervisor as the instructor for our medical subjects and an English/Business teacher who taught medical office procedures,health, etc. We saw autopsies, learned to give injections and take BPs. We did rounds with doctors during our internship. We worked in the field in this hospital in at least 9 different areas, doing medical transcription, and were graded by the department supervisor at the end of each term. This on-hands medical training gave us the absolute best when it came to understanding what what we were transcribing. At the end of the course, we were given CMT pins and diplomas and I have considered myself a CMT ever since, which is a heck of a lot longer than the AAMT has been in existence! I do not care about any list they have compiled nor do I care about a $300 test they give so you can become certified. That means nothing to me. I have my excellent training and over 35 years of experience, as well as my diploma stating I am a certified medical transcriptionist, and that is what I am.
really who cares if you have nothing to hide?
now if they are delving into your personal life then thats another story, thats just plain nosey. But a criminal background check is not a bad idea.
You know what everyone? Who cares if you're a CMT or not...
If you're good, you're good. If you're not, then oh well. I make $21 (yes, $21) per hour PLUS incentive, and I'm not a CMT. So there. Get over yourselves. My goodness.
So what noone cares about my opinion? I am still

Managment cares
The upper management, and I mean the administration, lets you know they really care and they admit that it is the MTs that are the backbone of the company. They let you know you are appreicated.
who cares if they're mgt ?

Who flippin' cares?!?!

For the people who don't like what she does, guess what?  You don't have to work for her.  If you're tired of seeing her job ads, guess what?  Use your scroll bar and move past it.  But please, stop creating thread after thread about her company.  It's getting really old... and it's so pointless.


Who ASKED? And WHO CARES ..nm

who cares? Put your energy into sm
something else. If you have ever had a business you would know that the half that you think they are keeping is NOT their profit! They have to pay self-employment taxes just like you do on the money coming in, overhead, etc. Dont waste so much time worrying about it. You are gonna get an ulcer! GEEZE!
Well, good for you. Who cares if
fellow MTs can afford to feed their families with the lastest pay cuts, as long as YOU are doing fine.
If you think MTSO looks out for/cares for anyone

Who cares your opinion? Get over

I have one suggestion..If there is no work. MOVE ON..why whine and complain on here EVERY day. I
agree with Jay. Maybe other people have OTHER things they would like to talk about besides being out of work every day at TransTech. I will say this.. with that much controversary and unhappy there, I would never work there and neither should you if your so miserable. Obviously, something is really wrong with that picture. Now, move on.. You can do better.
I didn't view it as a forum to complain. I saw it more as a chance to get to know sm

others who work for the same company.  Working at home can feel kind of isolating at times.  I do not miss the commute to work, scraping ice off of my car in the winter, backstabbing, gossip, etc., but I sometimes do miss the social aspects of working in an office.   I guess my viewpoint is, things are what you make them to be. 


I love Transtech and have been a cheerleader for a long time, even to the point of being accused of being management.  They have stuck with me through some bad times on my end, and I have no intention of dumping them through these bad times now, although I have gotten a couple of other jobs.  With the holidays coming up, especially, it may take all 3 to make ends meet and maybe have a few extras, but that is just part of life.
