Rotten t o the core! And if you copied/pasted

Posted By: (sm) on 2009-02-08
In Reply to: This takes the cake! - nn

then there are many more errors than you pointed out (if you did not copy/paste I am not bashing/correcting you, as I know this is just a forum, not a job, and also the anger factor plays into it)

How would they know if you copied and pasted?
I did this for years in RadNet. I typed in Word using AutoCorrect and used a keyboard shortcut to select and cut the text, then another to paste it into RadNet.
Because they are rotten to the core. nm

I meant OSi is rotten to the core, not 'us.' My bad! nm

To th e core, rotten - I agree! Got same offer for editing, fergeddit!! nm

No, not how many rotten companies -- how many rotten ATTITUDES are on here!
Don't be so gullable.

I've never edited, just cut and pasted sm
I don't know if it prints correctly (or how you'd want to see it), but I think that's standard and as long as the info is there, they get it.  They may even cut and paste that into Word, etc. themselves for a better view?
What I pasted on rates was THEIR email to me
not very old one fairly recent within the last month or so. So, I would double check and ask what is meant by Black on White.
Your character core is right on target.
Of course, we all know to worry when a company we work for starts employing people to spout this meaningless BS. Bast#rds.
Latest, related, same difference. Copy and pasted.

copied from email sent to current Transcend employees.
It does, however, provide additional opportunities as
we become a larger and more meaningful company. MDI was attracted to Transcend
because Transcend is widely recognized as the best company in the industry. MDI
is also very excited about Transcend’s technology, speech recognition successes,
and broad capacity to deliver services on a large scale.

This is a company big on VR. Hope you like it.
see message this post is excellent a fair representation of KS..I copied it from below.
You know who I am. I'm the one who hooked up the Foley at the beginning of my shift. I'm the one who worked extra each and every time I was asked. I'm the one who went into the office to transcribe when it was needed. I'm the one who went on site to help with a new account (and this account actually wanted me to work for them!). I'm the one who transcribed tapes when asked. I'm the one who did the 3-page reports and the docs that no one else wanted when you cut our pay. And I'm the one who worked an 8-hour shift when my air conditioning broke down last summer during one of the hottest days of the year. No one just handed me that huge paycheck, I worked for it.

And now I'm the one who works on two accounts that consider my transcription excellent. As a matter of fact, one account doesn't want anyone BUT me. During my career I was told by one manager and one MTSO that they wished they had 10 of me. I also came highly recommended to you. That speaks volumes about my reliability, stability, flexibility, and quality.

You offer some flexibility. Zero tolerance would be more like it. I had to take three days off for jury duty, my electricity went out twice, and workers cut my cable line, all of which were out of my control. I took five days off in a row once in two years for a very good reason and it was not a vacation. If I had to take time off during my shift, I made up my time that same day. Unfortunately my dentist doesn't have hours on Sunday. I also worked when I was sick. Is that what you mean by not a good fit? I was an IC not an employee.

The kicker for me was when I found out that your coordinator went to the client to find out if I was skipping reports. I have never skipped a report in my entire career. I don't have to. I love what I do and I love a challenge. She also told another employee that no one can do that many specials. I could and I did until she made certain that I didn't.

This field is stressful enough. I certainly don't want to work for someone who places more stress on me, especially when I'm already giving 110%.

When it was all over, I felt like the weight of the world had been lifted off my shoulders. It was then that I decided I would rather be appreciated than used and abused.
so-o-o-o-o sorry. Rotten way to do it too.
Know what I would do, copy/paste (maybe revise a bit, but not much) you post here and email them. Tell them you cost me another job by the way you handled my question. YES. Only fair, they should know, not a way to do things and it WILL make you feel a bit beter too. It is not good to hold things in. Speak up. You CAN be very tactful but still get the point across.

Yes, thanks for the heads up, I will not go there for sure.
rotten attitudes
Who wouldn't have a bad attitude with the way some of these companies think THEY own their MTs. Thank God I got rid of the rotten companies out there and believe me there are several. Make you promises and never come through. I will never ever let another company OWN me. Something is stinky out there!
Rotten docs

Dear Doctor:


While I have a great deal of respect for what you do, you aggravate me.


Please, when you are addressing a letter be courteous enough to include the CITY and the STATE, and if you spell something don't spell ROAD for me, because, trust me, I learned how to spell road in the second grade!


Don't make me search for 15 minutes to find something your lazy ### could have read off the chart, because I only made 14 cents to type that letter, and my time and skill is worth more than 60 cents an hour. 


And while I am venting, how about you say pheochromatoma, instead of feo, if that is what you mean.  Don't be so lazy my job is 100 times harder.


yes FBI even called my rotten exhusband
That was too much
Pay is less and less, declining 3 rotten cents/line for VR (sm)
If you have been offered a job for 3 cents for editing, I hope you decline.  We need to have these rates raised.  It's getting lower and lower. 
Not for one payroll period. No company is that rotten and
xx
Same thing--something is rotten in the state of Focus
I took the test too.  I used to work for Focus a couple of years ago and I've been transcribing for 20 years.  I have never failed a MT test and I was surprised when I failed and got the same email.  I spent a lot of time on that test and I know I know I did good.  If I was okay to work for them a couple of years ago, then why are they playing games with this testing?     
It's amazing to read this board and see how many rotten MT companies there are out there!
What the heck happened to this business!
It's amazing to read this board and see how many rotten MT companies there are out there!
Only if you believe what you read on this web site. Personally, I would not put one ounce of thought into what someone anonymously writes.
I guess if I got screwed out of my paycheck or got lied to by an employer I'd have a rotten att
This board is a great way to find out about an unsavory company before those things happen to you. If you think warning people about scheisters, liars, bottom feeders, and rip-off artists is amusing, time to double up on your meds, sweetheart.
