Your downright lies and underhanded business practices make you no nothing more than a con man. You have so many intricate schemes going that even you can't even keep them straight. Yes, you reap what you sew, and I agree with the other poster that stated that you have reaped havoc that you and you alone created! Welcome to your own personal hell, SS, may you suffer until you reflect upon what you have done and repent for your sins! You are the most pathetic human being I have ever met! That goes for Leo, too, or whatever his real.

No one OWES you a bonus. However..
When I have extra time am I going to put it toward the company who gives me bonuses or the one who doesn't.
SS owes everyone an aplology!
Please forgive the typos in my previous post. I get so angry that I don't always proof properly. Hopefully, even with the typos, the post makes perfect sense!
If TTS owes you a single dime do what I just did

Report TTS to wage/hour.  It is time to put a stop to the tactics of this woman and her dumb as a post lackey.


Four Seasons Transcription Owes Me Money
She owes me money too. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I sent you an e-mail.
No, I'm not on his side. He ought to pay every penny he owes. It doesn't matter what
This is a capitalist society. He is free to charge as much as the market will bear.

If you're tolerating that, then the market holds.

For the trouble, I'd make a surcharge onto the shipping charge as well.

If he did not pay my 1st check within 24 hours of the pay date (absolute proof), I would stop working that very day for him.


If Four Seasons Transcription/Robin Hall owes you money...sm
please email me.  I am receiving emails from new victims of her's almost weekly.  Hopefully we can something done together since none of us seem to be getting anywhere individually.  It's became blatantly obvious that lying, conning, and stealing from us is just the way she runs her business.  Upon comparing notes, the common thread seems to be her excuses, i.e., her clients not paying her, our banks, and her accountant.  The payroll company is another of her favorites.  She even uses some of the exact same wording.  (She must have created templates for these excuse emails)  I finally quit when she owed me 4 invoices.   Her newest maneuver is firing people whose production has gone down solely for the reason that they're not being paid.  SHE MUST BE STOPPED.   As we speak, she is probably sitting at her black-hearted little computer shooting out her excuse templates right and left.   The post below by just passing through is kind of baffling.  I'd sure like more details about that situation.  Robin can sue me until the cows come home, I did NOTHING wrong.  I did get a reply from the BBB, and they said they didn't handle complaints of this nature.  Guru.com said they're keeping a close eye on her.  I feel our best bet is to pool our resources, hire an attorney, supply him/her with all the evidence we've collected, and let a court handle it.  Even if we cannot recover any of the money she already owes all of us, perhaps we can prevent her from ever doing this to others in the future.   Please email me if you're interested in joining forces against this rogue MTSO.
My apologies...
First of all, I did not mean to upset you or anyone else.

I do not think MQ will go under. I think they will survive. I only wish they would do something about the morale issue and not just turn a blind eye. I have been through three sell outs with this company, so no I don't think they will go under. However, again, I do think that they should make a huge attempt in increasing the morale, we are what keeps the doors open. I think if morale were higher, then the negativity would go down.

I never knew this board existed until about a week ago. Since finding it, I have read everything in the archives and that has been posted since. I am in tears on a daily basis. We all know change is going to happen as it does with any company, that is a given. I know that since the change that the supervisors in my office (that just closed) are totally different. I do not feel that I can trust them. They were always so caring and treated me good, and now since the change, frankly I think the could care less about me or anyone else. That kind of change scares me. Again, I am sorry and I am just as scared as you are. I do think all will work out though. Can we call a truce here? I am not trying to be your enemy, after all - we are on the same team.
My apologies
for sounding less than respectful. I admit to not knowing the anonymous names (such as mine is) but assuming that such kvetching was coming from someone who'd not been doing this a hundred years. Changes are hard. I've been through many of them in 30 years. But if we fight them, we end up sitting outside looking in, or at our jobs going places we don't want them to go. Where people would love PTO, fair pay, and reasonable expectations.

DQS becomes more user friendly with time. I have old, tired hands, as well and prefer transcribing slower, even if it means I have to do it a little longer to bring home the bacon.

Group hug was a great idea.
My apologies
I understand that I may have been a pain in the butt - but business is business. I have left D&L so feel free to go back to work or continue if you enjoyed / enjoy it. I won't be bothering you anymore. I left D&L, I was not fired or let go, and my concerns are valid to me - does not matter to anyone else. so any problems they may have should be reevaluated by those applying. I do not see them going downhill - I have not heard anything negative, and personally - the people who work there the worker bees - are a great group of people that I would keep on my friends list. And they do have plenty of work, the pay is compatible. My personal feelings and opinions have nothing to do with the co-workers or the IC trans - or the work they offer. So again, I guess when I left I did them a favor and took the problems with me - or not. So now you all can get back to getting the scoop on the employer and not the employees.
My apologies

I misread your message and I am sorry. Looks like I will have to eat my words.


I guess I have just been a llitle upset about this but you did raise a valid point. Maybe I should be a little more careful.


Thanks!


 


my apologies. nm

My apologies
I just went back to my email and discovered that somebody who works at MTs emailed me privately, although I still don't recall seeing anything posted publicly in answer to my questions.

Since I'm starting to get the idea based on that, that maybe they're not supposed to talk...????, I will therefore be general and vague.

The person's review of MTS to me was actually very positive. The owner of the company was a Transcriptionist herself, and the second-in-command also worked as a transcriptionist. That in itself goes a really long way toward giving the company big-time CREDIBILITY because it means it's not being run by suits who don't really understand the business.

Apparently they pay by the dictated minute, and apparently it works out to a reasonably fair arrangement. I do have questions about how that works out when you get a really fast-talker, but I suppose the fast-talkers are evened out by the slow-talkers. I hope anyway...

I personally never heard back from them, though my batting average would have been 1.000 without them - I got offers or serious (but too late) callbacks from everywhere else I applied.
My apologies -sm

Your post sounded like something mgmt. would say, which you're obviously not, judging from you 2nd post.  Having said that, I'm in your ballpark.  They do get annoying after a while, bragging about their bonuses which were offered at 1-1/2 lines for everybody before the hiring blitz in the spring, now it seems only a few, chosen ones are getting bonuses.


Deepest apologies

I do know who you are because I've talked to you on the telephone.  It has absolutely nothing to do with this board. 


And yes, they do love people like you.  People who do not mind getting a 25% reduction in their pay for headers and footers.


Enough said about Breitner, they are a waste of time - PERIOD!


As I stated in the msg above, I did not know you could use your own. My apologies. nm
.
My apologies, thought you were a US MT
nm
My apologies...Geez
I hope it didn't appear as if I were biting your head off because I'd never do that to a fellow MT when we're in the same boat. I'm just exasperated and frustrated (and going broke now, lol!).

In all honesty, I was very offended by this morning's email when I know several of us have been emailing inquiring about where the work has gone, is there work available on another account, etc., only to have our cries for help fall on deaf ears.

I can't help but wonder if these new accounts are going to be VR accounts, which is why they're hiring a whole new crew since the last account they went to VR was met with such resistance by so many MTs.

Either that or perhaps the above poster is correct and they'd like to drive out the longer-term, higher-salaried MTs...But I don't want to believe that.

Anyway, my apologies if my response to your other post seemed abrupt. I just don't want anyone at MDI thinking if their work disappears that it's as simple as requesting a backup account, when the past month or so have made it painfully clear to those of us who have tried to get more work that it's not the case.

Good luck to ALL of us, not only at MDI but every other MT who is having their work disappear.
My apologies on moving the post (SM)
I moved this post originally to the Medquist board, by mistake.

This is not Medquist but a totally different company.

My apologies! Not line ... MINUTE!
We paid $3.50 per dictated minute for JLG to do the work. We paid our ICs $1.50 per dictated minute for a 2500+ minutes/month contract.

Whew!!

My apologies. I just assumed, which is horrible. sm
Do not base communication on your lead. If you are not happy, call Becky at the office. There have been changes and they are listening to suggestions, which is good. My lead is NOT the best but I have an easy account. I always call the office or email BB if I need something. The response is immediate. I bet you are on an account with my lead (HIM). Email if you want as I love to network with other strokers.
Apologies - my quote marks were deleted!?...nm

MedQuisters, topics from the Company board are being moved to the MedQuist board. MQ posts on

the first page of the Company board will be removed to open up space for other companies to post.  Enjoy the new Medquist board set up for you.


Thank you,

Are you the same condescending person the word board? I thought this was called "Company Board.&#

Didn't you post this on 03/04/06 on both the Company Board and the Hospital/Clinic MT Board?

probably more for another board, but...
In response to the posts about Christmas, I remember the good old days when the Jewish radiologist I worked for took the whole staff out for a big Christmas dinner and gave us all generous bonuses. We in turn gave him and his wife Hanukkah gifts. It's called mutual respect and being big enough to accept and respect each others' differences without taking away anyone's right to celebrate according to their own beliefs.
Where is the MQ board? (SM)
See the links to specialty boards to the left. Medquist is the 4th link from the top.

Look on the job board
 
someone on this board once said that they (sm)
give you a line raise after you are taken off 100% QA.  I was never told that and did not get it. 
Board changes (SM)
We have condensed the number of board forums to reduce the confusion on where to post what topics.

You can view archives of any of the removed forums by clicking on the Home button at the bottom left and then scrolling to the end of the web page.

If your topic does not have a specific board currently, the Main board will accommodate it.

Thank you.

there was a job on the other board sm
that was paying 7 cpl for MT and part time supervisor. I don't think so.
I was just on the La. board looking for La. MTs.

I never see any postings from MTs of Louisiana and when I asked a question concerning LA MTs I would never get an answer.  What part of Louisiana are you located.  Do you work as an IC or employee or for a hospital?  I have been trying to get an estimate on what Louisiana MTs are paid as I think the amount that I was told by the hospital was too low.


If it is the one from the Job board

Then that is Terry and they are out of St. Louis MO.  I currently work for them.  Good company to work for.  Terry is very enthusiastic about MT.  I enjoy the accounts, very low ESL if that is a selling point for you.  We also have always had plenty of work and if ever I've run out I just let Terry know and she hooks me up with another account to fill my time. 


HTH.


MQ has their own board because they are the
BIGGEST MTSO. Spheris will not allow employees to post anywhere anytime anything about them. Spheris joined up with Indian forces long, long ago in a HUGE volume. I have even read articles from Indian papers and Spheris, with Spheris wanting to reduce its US workload by half at least in order to use Indian labor. I have heard Spheris pay per line is very low. Not putting MQ up on a pedestal.  I have worked for both, and Spheris is evil #1, though they keep a very low secretive profile.
I just saw on the job board
@ mtjobs.com QDPRN allows the choice of Word or Wordperfect also. So there seems to be companies out there still using Word.
Could you please tell me how to look at this board?
//
there were some on this board

when FN changed your pay from per report to per line (I think that is what they did).  Those posts would be further down, around the date you were switched.  If you do a search, you should be able to bring them up and then you can email the posters if you want. 


Is this the info you are looking for? 


Isn't that what this board is for?
I do agree with the above post - the Pro-KS people just haven't had a bad experience yet - but that doesn't mean it won't happen, they just won't be prepared when it does. Those of us who had bad or miserable experiences with KS should not be ridiculed for speaking our opinion or telling our stories. KS has had a clear-free ride on this board for a long time and it was about time for someone to start the rant on them that has happened today. They could not hide behind a gleeming reputation forever and get away with it. I am so happy that I beat them to the punch, as I described in a previous post - and now I enjoy working for another company that has been bashed on this board off and on for a long time, but I have no complaints. I have plenty of work and good lead people. Not everything is perfect, but what job is perfect. And, as with KS, I always try to stay a step ahead - and watch for signs that things are going awry. It pays off in the long run.
But is job board
Not for job ads? Seems they are advertising for business, not MTs.
