Which prove the point that
when ops calls asks someone if they can help out on an account, they have no idea if would put you into overtime or not. It's up to you to say, sorry, I can't, it will put me into overtime. Easy as pie :)
And your posts more than prove my point!

You know companies that are hiring part time? Post their names on this board in answer to the original poster, for Pete's sake!  There are thousands of hits a day on this site, and you think just 1 person is interested in a part-time position? You just want to help 1 person?  Nope - I would say that your response has been a prime example of exactly what I was warning others about - someone who appears totally innocent, offering job help, but it has to be private.  That goes against the fundamentals of this board. The majority of MTs who have no gain in any shape or form simply post the name of the company that might be hiring - nothing private necessary. Unless, of course, the person who just happens to know a company doesn't WANT the info public. And when the innocent MT gets involved and takes it one step further, a big mess can happen, just as your postings have shown.  Again, my initial intent was not to spotlight you. You did that yourself. If I was in a vindictive mood, I'd even be tempted to post what I guess now are your initials along with the companies you happen to think might be hiring part time. LOL.   


What on earth is heresay?
Is it some kind of amalgam of hearsay and heresy? :)
Anyone know of a company, easy clinic work, easy Word format, dependable pay? Help!

I love it. It is fast, easy to learn and easy to use.

I wouldnt do it

They claim to pay a shift differential...and I have been working for them since february.  I have 6 years of experience and I am making 8 and a quarter.  Another girl has one year and she is making 8 and a quarter.  the company recently started insourcing work from Spheris and ever since everything has gone down hill.  Paychecks come late and incorrectly.  Previously I had postedthat this was a good company...now I am not so sure...I have recently started working for a second company and am trying to decide what to do...


 


email privately if you want more info


Definitely too low. I wouldnt take less than 4 cpl
No way. People that pay that are insulting..I started at 4 cpl and now am up to 5.5 cpl so it's doable.
How do you know this? Prove what you say.
xx
You can do this but you need to prove yourself
They are a wonderful company. But, they work slowly watching you progress, in my experience. At first you start on 5 jobs a day and when you are released you are given a primary account with 24 hour turn around and you need to meet your line requirement. As time passes if you continuously meet line and quality requirements, you can ask for more accounts. If you stay flexible and are willing to work nights and weekends this is a plus too because there is more work at those times, everyone wants day. There is no set schedule, but you if you can be there when the dictators and backlogs are that is best. As well, if you have unlimited LD and not just thei internet the whole combination will ensure you a long full-time career at MDI. There are a lot of variables. And you need a lot of patience, but it can be done. Good luck to you!
Nobody can prove to me that I sent
an email if I DID NOT !

'DOUBLE EYE ROLL'
She could tell him but probably wouldnt accept.

Wouldnt you think they would have more consideration rather
than just throwing people on with no concern about running out of work.  I guess it is just easier to do that than worry about people working.  Nothing like making an a-- out of people.
Because they can dig up enough liars to prove it.
We believe it because we need to.

- the schools get away with it the same way every commercial on TV, in magazines, and every other form of advertising gets away with it.

What about recruiters? They only tell you what you want to hear. They even get rewarded for being good liars.

The truth is, no school is needed by anyone to become an MT. Recruiters are unnecessary for ethical companies. Word gets around and they need all the bodies they can hire to combat the truth by coming on to boards like this and expounding on *all the money they make* - it is hard to know who to believe because they do it so well and we want to believe it.

Hope for the future? Yeah, right. How do you pay the bills NOW?


Well, I do, and have the pay stubs to prove it.
Sorry if you don't believe me. I didn't think it was possible either until I started at KS.
Sorry, but I have the paychecks to prove otherwise
Every account is different, and I lucked out and got two great accounts. My main account is a super easy ER account with heavy templates, which we get paid for, and I easily do 400-500 lines per hour on that account. My secondary account is a basic 4 hospital account, which gives me really long reports, and I usually do about 300-350 lines per hour on that one. So, it is possible to make that much money there if you focus and work hard.
I can't prove that they offshore, but...

I have seen things that lead me to believe that they do, at least sometimes.


I don't think they really have backlog issues.  Yes they do send out a lot of emails saying we need everyone to help blah blah blah, but the work always seems to get done in time.  With times the way they are, it seems there are plenty of people willing to work overtime to help pay the bills, so others of us don't have to.


 


 


 


I was just curious how they can PROVE it was you, is all. nm
:
Do not think they care if they can prove it. They just

I do not think they care if they can prove it or not.  If you watch any of the daytime Court shows like Judge Judy, it is almost impossible to prove Defamation of Character.  I think Transtech just wants to send a message that they are watching the MTStars Board and are not afraid to try to track you down if they do not agree with what you post.  It is just intimidation to prevent anyone from being honest in expressing their opinion.  The Music industry did the same thing to prevent people from sharing free music – bring a law suit against a couple of people and everyone else is afraid to try it. 


All it does is cost the defendant money to have it thrown out – and we all know how rich Medical Transcriptionists are that they have attorneys on retainer.  LOL 


 


 


I also get the same "perks" you do and I work whenever I want. I wouldnt do it for what you ma
No Way Jose!!!

But do THEY see the names? Vandy wouldnt have to see them.
And they dont have to know that the work is not being QAd by someone in America with sense just because they see the names.
Platform very easy and quick - easy to get used to. :)
.
12 cpl to prove you can and will work - Deal?
Deal.
Wouldn't they have to prove who the poster is and could
it being given to them by the administrator of this site? With providers such as AOL and Yahoo, that takes a court order. Is the private information of the people who post here at risk of being divulged to others not affiliated with the management of this site?

Also, how is it you come to know about this endeavour?

(this is not a flaming question, but one asked sincerely)
Let NM prove one thing you said was not true!! Is not possible.
and you were sure right when they are sticking it to you, in the same breath is you'll be so excited!
LOTs KS' MTs paychecks prove otherwise (sm)

$$$$  Mine included.  Just do a search of the Forums and Archives.  No need to beg for work with Keystrokes!  If anyone has to beg to work with them to begin with it's probably because it is not the right fit.  Calling to follow up on job interest and begging are two different things.  If a company is in transition and very busy, then that's it, they're very busy. Just take it as that not as a luminous sign.


That's it for me!


Appreciate your kind comments, but TT can prove itself on its own.
Don't pay attention to the naysayers.
TT does well and earns money for its employees to provide a safe good environment and job. All of the things we already know about TT on the board and in our lives speak for TT. It is nice of you to defend against naysayers, but TT can speak for itself and already has. More of these kinds of posts will just fuel the troll fire.

See my post below about breadwinner, defending TT's transcriptionists who provide health insurance for families. This kind of argument is a waste of time.

In other words, I think perhaps we could let other people on these boards talk about their stuff. And if we don't and keep up with this cycle, well that's okay too. People like me will quit looking on here for interesting new things and will work extra to make more money anyway. IMHO
Just did not want you to get your feelings hurt when you were trying to do a good thing.
Again, how can they prove it was here that posted that comment. nm
:
This is the thing that TT will use to prove their case
If you agree with the poster DON'T post your agreement!

Keep it to yourself.


I tried downloading it into Express Scribe and it wouldnt go into that.
It's a mystery and they have never gotten back to me so I assume as I cannot play their sound file, I wont be considered for the job. I tried everything to get it to work.
I wouldnt even go there. Recruiter leaves a lot to be desired.
Make sure you read the fine print on how you'll be penalized your whole check if the QA in India finds an error in your work. It gets interesting. Now, who do you think it benefits for them to find errors such as punctuation etc..QA based out of India.. things that make you go hmmmm.... The right hand does not know what the left hand is doing. There are far better companies out there to work for but best wishes...
I does end with an "S"..but if they havent jacked you around, I wouldnt worry about it.
I think for me, I'm probably going to bail. It's obvious the recruiter has too much on her plate as we're all getting the same story about forgetting things and contacting us in a timely manner etc..very strange but in this biz..flaky is the name of the game and they think we're the flaky, job hoppers.. I wonder why..Give us a decent job with decent benefits and actually WORK and we'd be happy, but that doesn't happen anymore. We just get jacked around.
Make sure you can prove your facts before posting, please.
This does nothing but create confusion. I talked to someone in management there today (I'm not with Webmedx) and if anyone knows what they're doing, this person does. They are NOT shipping their work out! Now they have clients who choose to share their work with India, but that's not something Webmedx can control, nor does it reflect on their business.

Chicken Little, make sure the sky is actually falling before you speak next time.
Nope. The PC is mine. I bought it and I can prove it. sm

I spoke with someone at Webmedx who told me that what they are monitoring is the VPN traffic and not the any of the MTs PCs.  He said that would be illegal. 


I don't know if this is the truth or not, but I have found some handy softwares to protect myself just in case this criminal act is happening on my PC. 


when you sign a contract, you prove you are not an employee
if the company is looking for work done when they NEED it done, it is not called an employee.

Sorry to burst your bubble,but if they tell you what is expected and you agree to it, then you are contracted to do that work when they need that work done.

You all can argue all you want, but the facts are the facts. They do not have to use you as a contracter. They can find someone that is willing to do the work when the WORK IS AVAILABLE.

Appeal it & make them prove misconduct.

Thank you so much. I couldnt understand that 8, 16 and 24 hours very well. I wouldnt want to limit

myself to that.


Yeah, you'd think they would be contributing wouldnt you. They are not huge but big enough I woul
think they'd put in more for insurance. I checked into another and they were $700 a month. I think they had over 100 employees. Again, you would think it'd be cheaper with that many employees/family members but I guess not. I am about ready to bag this at home stuff and go to work for our local hospital.
I wouldnt go there. No communication. People getting ready to quit
Unless, your desperate for a job, I'd stay away.  You can do better with a honest company who treats their MTs fairly. JMO. I currently know of three people who are quitting and it wont be long I am sure before others follow suit.
If they weren't Synthescribe, they wouldnt have the same phone number.
regardless of what they SAY.
I meant foot pedal wouldnt work. nm
:
I thought ATSI was affiliated with Zylomed..That would be strange, wouldnt it. .
I'd check on that if I were you.
Support bad, wouldnt repond, lots of stuff to fill in not
s
Prove it to me then. I'm open for discussion. You can email me at admin@mtstars.com

oops!! I meant "a" bitter not "an" wouldnt want the MTSO to NOT hire me LOL

dont misunderstand me...we didnt work knowing we wouldnt get paid
How stupid would that be? We were paid a month behind. So when the 18th came we expected our check for the previous month. So that would be one paycheck. No one willingly works for free. I know i certainly wouldnt have typed as much as i did for her - taken time away from everything/everyone else - if i KNEW she wasn't going to pay me. Seriously, I hope she rots for what she has put me and my family through. I'm not talking about a couple hundred bucks. I'm talking thousands of dollars. Yep, I'm ticked
Agreed. Could not make any money there. Platform is horrid. I wouldnt matter if you were paid 18 cpl
if you couldnt get a good line count in.
Excellent point, and point in case
look at the charlatan christian in the
Whitehouse who uses religion to push his agenda...

Christian IS as Christian DOES...
I understand your point, my point is why can't MTs and QA work together..
being QA doesn't mean you are above everyone else, you are just an extra set of ears...and why do so many MTs take offense to QA??? That is my point...you made have had bad experiences in the past with QA but not all QA are bad...
Didnt think of it cause I dont care. Wouldnt care if
