In Reply to: I never said and didn't mean the MTs...I meant the management!!!!! sm - huh??

ex-management are literally scum. After that enlightenment, I wouldn't say I was smart to send MDI-MD packing, but rather my MQ disgust radar was going off, and I didn't know why. Isn't that bizarre? That happened to me at another company a while back - one I was checking out before leaving MQ, and I accidentally recognized one of the names of management on a group email, and inquired. Sure enough, it was a company started by all ex-MQ mgmt. I tried to stay the course, but it was just the same old BS under a different company name. So sad, as I had heard great things about MDI-MD as well. Thus, my willingness to give them a shot. That's really a shame. Lots and lots of MQ MTs left MQ for them as well, and I know not many of us can handle any additional financial hits right now. So sad. People get the courage to leave one monster, and end up in the monster's spawn. Sorry if I offend anyone, but if you know MQ, you can relate.

that explains
the quality of their MTs work!. 
Well, that explains it!
You have to work like that in order to afford the coffee at Starbucks!
Well, that explains a lot if it is them....

BTDT, no thanks!  


Oh, its you! Well that explains
You have got to be the nut case who lost her marriage, her health, her BP, her back, her everything and her life due to the fault of subcontractors, we assume.  Had I known, I would not have wasted my time.  Seriously, you are brain dead, flat lined.  The entire thread to which I am responding is directly about the woman subcontractor that starts with a T. Now, call me wicked brilliant, but I was able to figure out the connection to the 2 solid days of bashing this woman and connect the dots. Your dots, however, are obviously not connectable, nor are they probably even dots anymore.  Realizing that its you, I now also realize fully the futility of trying to have an intelligent conversation, and bow out as everyone else has done when you hop on a thread with your clever dialogue.  That's why folks are feeling the need to restart the conversations - you jumped in and totally confisculated the entire subject matter!  So, my silence does not represent your victory by your keen observations and accusations. I am not TTD, I don't know her, I just no dialoging with you is a total waste of time and energy.  Buh Bye!! 
Thank you. Probably explains why
the work load is so light.  From these posts I gather I work on the platform that lost the account. 
That explains a lot
I've been sitting here wallowing in one of the last days I have of typing this account at this pay rate yet somehow I can't seem to get the lines to come. Of course, it wouldn't surprise me to find that they've found a way to fudge the lines, too...maybe stretching it to a 70 count line. Paying less for typing more...the new Desi American way.
or spaces which probably explains the
discrepancy.
Well that explains it. Florida is the sm

biggest ripoff there is.  Everything is twice what the rest of the world is.  I used to live there, totally ridiculous.  If you're not in a city, you might check with your county farm bureau as a last resort. 


Well, that explains a lot of things - none of them good.

Ahhh, only been at it a year, that explains it.

Oh, well, that trust fund explains how you can

put up with VR!  Thanks for the truth, FOR ONCE!  Yes, you see, when I win the lottery, I will be able to afford to do VR too!  I'm waiting for that time, which I am sure is just around the corner, to learn VR. 


 


That explains it. I remember that test. Who....sm
the heck cares how many lines per minute someone can type. Many of us here could type pretty near that fast if we could figure out how to transcribe from the written word vs dictated word. Most of our brains are not wired that way. It was a really ridiculous test for MTs. I want to know how many lines per hour you can transcribe from the dictated word. Most doctors don't dictate 100 words a minute.
So that explains why her experiences are totally
different than anyone else who works for Transcend on the BeyondBelief program. Unbelievable the number of glitches on that platfom that never seem to be resolved.
That explains my unanswered phone calls. nm

That explains it, yesterday I had no work, this morning DS on today's date. NM

Please everyone, read the post made by Tammy Johson above. It explains everything.

I guess this explains part of the reason we keep running out of work. My office lost a lot of huge
accounts in the past year.
LOL! No, I'm FAR from mgmt!
Nemesis would have been closer ;) Believe me, I have STUDIED this company and would be the first to zing them if I felt it was earned.
Former MQ Mgmt = HIS Mgmt
..
U'r KS mgmt - I do my job, so had better you
Only someone in mgmt at the co. would keep posting like this, and be so seriously upset. I can just see an MT defending someone they work for like this, LOL.

The IC co. I just left did the same thing. Always responding pretending to be an MT. LOL.

Like I SD - you better believe my pay better be in my acct on the day it is supposed to be there. Not 1-2 days late. You want me ON TIME on the job, you want me to be responsible, give you advance warning of days off, do a quality job, to work the hours I am scheduled. LOL - that goes 2 ways - you better do YOUR job and ON TIME.
Yes I am in Mgmt.
I see it as part of my job to check things and keep it fair.
U can try discussing it with mgmt but you will just

be discriminated against because u do not think what they do is the best thing since fried grits.  If the program is so wonderful, why all the problems, the notes on the private board about major issues never resolved.  Why does it break down every day?  Why are line counts so hard to get?   Say a word to mgmt about anything and u pay the price by getting nothing but garbage for dictators and garbage accounts.  


They could save a lot of money by trashing this program and starting from scratch cuz MLS could actually produce some work on something decent. 


 


They must be in co-hoots with OSI's mgmt
so lame
I'm not mgmt. I don't even work there, but was

My choice was between TT and another company.  The other company went higher than 9 cpl, and I went with them.


Should be -- Don't KNOW if she means mgmt.

re: Word/mgmt

When I applied, Word 2000 and Excel 2000 was the minimum that you needed.. I did ask about the bounced checks, etc and was told that they do not currently have an issue but it was at one time. 


Every reason to believe? Oh, boy. I think mgmt (sm)
has better things to do than sit around on these boards all day.  Trust issues, huh?
Did you not think that QA and mgmt were in contact?
nm
My advice - look elsewhere. They (mgmt) is
extremely rude and feedback is insulting.
Mgmt is US based but BAD!!!

Since the US management took over, there is no work and many Focus MTs have either quit - like myself - or have acquired 2nd employers so they make money.  No work, bad management, accounts leaving, payroll always coming up short now, no decent QA, management that won't answer your IMs and if you call team leader you are called stupid, a liar, a worthless retard and basically they hate you and will fire you.  I would personally avoid the company.  It was better and more honest and work flow was great when the Indians managed Focus!


That seems all you have done . . . TransTech mgmt ????
So silly . . . .
sure sounds like T mgmt, but thats okay.
x
send it to everyone BUT mgmt. Make sure it's just to the MTs. sm
what are they gonna do? fire you? LOL
They also did not change the MGMT insurance
and that's just not right. Seems the ones who are making them all that money for their BIG salaries are the ones who are suffering. VERY UNFAIR.
Don't ever forget that HR works for MGMT and not

Recruiters or mgmt should not be solicting
for employees on this particular board, it is for the MTs to share information about companies. I know this isn't an MT.
Adept Word Mgmt.
I used to work for them when I lived in Texas and I did not like them at all. Don't bother....
At the risk of being called mgmt, I have to say (sm)
that when I started 2 years ago my very first check was direct deposited, but I can't remember how much time they had to do it.  I DO remember I was shocked, because the company I had come from always told us, it took several pays before it went through.  I think it was because they just didn't bother with the paperwork involved.
TT Mgmt says more is going to VR by Dictaphone and Escription
Trying every way to cut our pay.   Less and less regular transcription.  Of course, as mgmt says, this is the wave of the future.  But how do we explain that 1/2 cut in pay to our mortgage companies and be able to put gas in our car to go anyway.  Horrible thing happening in this MT field for the MT's.
sups, mgmt, recruiters...
And whatever almighty names you wanna call yourselves. This is someone you can learn from.
lol! i'm not mgmt and not scared, just wanted to
share my opinion. I'm just a plain 'ole MT, wouldn't want to be in management or an MTSO. Had a couple of my own local clinic accounts some years back, but one of the doctors went out of business, and I gave the other one to a friend because I was tired of driving 30 minutes one way to pick up tapes and deliver.
Bottom Line -- Mgmt always says that
cherry-picking is not allowed and will be dealt with; however, it very rarely is. If management is not going to take care of it, nothing you can do. Just type and go on. This way, you will get up to speed on these dictators and it will not matter in the long run.
When MDI mgmt posts on these boards
they don't hide behind a moniker.  They use their real names.  People will think what they want to think, but I'm with the OP on this one!
Just because we can't see it doesn't mean mgmt isn't dealing with it. (sm)
Hopefully they are still monitoring this. The only time I really noticed a problem was a few months ago, they had hired some new people on my main account and they evidently didn't like foreign accents. After a few days an E-mail came out about cherry picking and those people were gone, either to another account or company, I don't know.
It is VERY clear Web mgmt does not care at all about their MTs.
If they did, this overhiring and scrambling for work wouldn't happen constantly as it does now. They can keep their townhall meetings and cookbooks and let us work consistently.
I'm sure the team leads and mgmt SM

are keeping track of line counts, right?  Then they should be quite aware of who isn't getting their count in and contacting those people to find out what the problem is.


CONGRATULATIONS MTSO MGMT
I really enjoyed this post.
I have worked for a lot of companies and can tell you this has the worst mgmt of sm
any company I know. They are unprofessional and they do not know how to manage.  They are running around like chickens with their heads chopped off, play people against each other (watch behind you if you go there) and you really do not want to go there.  They do hire outside the U.S., almost everywhere actually-not just India, the Phillippines, but as far away as Australia. Their tech support is bad and the company could care less about those that work for them.  On an up note, they pay on time. That's all I can say about them that is good.  You would do better working for any other service that is around than working for them. 
or maybe some offices still have poor mgmt & skills

I thought this was mgmt also but kept my mouth shut...nm

I am not upper mgmt. I am just a Transhealth employee. They have gotten

a bad wrap on these boards.  I don't know who has done all this, but I can tell you that their current staff (including QA) are the best.  The ESL account is a tough one but you have a good QA staff to help you get to know it and there are samples available for you immediately. 


You may email me and I would be happy to share more. 


Also, their insurance is available the very next month after employment.  If you start on the last day of the month, the insurance is in place the next day.
