In Reply to: Not Lee. She doesn't come here anymore. Too hard to read the lies from people who were fired fo - Keystrokes MT

And she won't go away. Unprofessional and not changing.

    QT is alive and well. I'm not in my office right now, sm
    but I'll come back with the info you need.
    Alive and well and not hiring.

    It Appears Censorship is Alive and Well...
    here on the MT boards , as my post in reply in this thread has disappeared.
    AnyModal is alive and well and quite easy to work
    with if you have an IT department on the ball enough to make it work with your regular platform.  The only thing it doesn't do very well is formats, it's not much for left justifying but otherwise it actually helps with the bad dictators.  Plus, it's good for a laugh now and then.  I don't mind it anymore.  I mind the low pay rate but if I can get 3200-3500 lines a day on it, I can pay bills.  The first 6 months we had it, it was a nightmare.  Now that it's been in operation a year, it's not so bad. 
    Yep. Guess racisim is alive and well. Sigh.
    The misconceptions are overwhelming, aren't they? People really do need to open their minds and their eyes and educate themselves. This is why my relatives in New Zealand and England make fun of Americans, for being too afraid to travel and enjoy the rest of the world. Guess some folks just feel safer hiding under their little rocks at home waiting for the big, bad Muslims to come and get them. So sad.

    Can you imagine if our ancestors had been too afraid to come to America? My family arrived in 1640, and raised tobacco in the original Jamestown settlement. Hardly a safe haven back then. Thank goodness I come from such stock. I've enjoyed visits to so many different places, met so many different cultures, it makes me sad for people who are scared into the corner by boogie-men.

    Anyway, this is a fine opportunity for the right person. Racists and bigots need not apply.
    This post sounds like management
    to me.

    Bea! Stop beating yourself up. This company sounds like the worst - they did you a favor.

    I've been doing Radiology for 20 years - most decent companies don't force you to take these ridiculous tests which do *not* gauge true skills...

    Never take a timed test - most don't allow you to correct mistakes except for on the word you are *on* and trust me THAT will slow you down.

    Keep looking - decent companies are still out there, although I strongly suggest you not rely just on Radiology - as more and more of those accounts are being lost to voice recognition.
    I apologize if this sounds unkind, but it seems kind of cheesy to post sm

    how great your company is and solicit referrals.  Perhaps you mean well -- I will certainly give you the benefit of the doubt.  But in my 30+ years of transcription, I have rarely found that it pans out to refer someone.  Granted, you say that the recruiter knows that you do not know these people and are just soliticiting the referral bucks, but it just sounds wrong for many reasons.  Heck, I have referred FRIENDS to companies I was happy with and either they hated the company and were mad at me (using the word mad loosely .. perhaps disappointed/whatever is a better choice) or they didn't measure up and the company was disappointed that I had referred such a person. 


    Regardless, I am happy that you are happy where you are working.  THAT, for all of us, is the bottom line it would seem.  I want to have a home where I can just work and be happy for the rest of my working days, which will probably be until I'm 100, so I guess I had better make sure I AM happy! 


    Good luck to all of us. 


    I'm not kicking anything. Someone asked
    shared my experience. I really don't think a $110 loss on my taxes is going to make or break me. I'm just giving people the heads-up on this company and how nasty they can be.
    Seems like you are kicking a dead dog. (sm)
    I assume you have contacted them yourself. Sorry, but I have no idea why they didn't give you work or why you had to pay shipping yourself. I understood the standard was they gave you a shipping label, you called Fed Ex and they picked up and delivered said package.

    I assume you did deduct this as a loss from your taxes in the past?
    Insurance kicking in ..
    Yes, Heartland does, and it is a good thing because you will need to have your death benefit available for your family to survive after you choke your own self for taking a position with them!    
    Okay. I will. Thanks for kicking my rear out once and for all
    And if you are management, just to let you know, you will get my resignation in a week or so. I know, you will be glad to see me go, so I won't let the door hit me on the way out... Thanks for being so supportive of my decision to quit.
    But what about those accused of kicking
    trying to get MTs to see there is alternative to staying a vicitm. I have been accused of down kicking but have done no such thing. And would welcome my quotes that others seem to think are down kicking. 
    Is Transliterator a recuiter for a company using VIaneta? Her post sounds like a commercial.
    :}
    So kicking and screaming will do no good, huh?

    Husband ditto here. Kicking out...
    yet, he does not believe me when I say I am trying my best to get the work. Ug.
    or a one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest (nm)

    the email addy is because it keeps kicking back

    There are about four people who have that email addy (it's just like yahoo, hotmail or aol), but this particular email addy keeps kicking back as undeliverable.


     


    MTstars was the only place that this position was posted, so this is why I reposted it ... so that I could get in touch with those particular people.


    So give her the couple days before the kicking begins. n/m

    You are most definitely upset that your Bush **s-kicking ways have rendered your eyes caught in the
    Without MTs, companies would not exist. You and many others have no regard nor respect for hard-working MTS. You can't take it with you. I feel sorry for you. Do the right thing...and, you know what that is.
    sure sounds swell. Sounds like 2350 ln/day @ 4 cents/ln=$90./day
    in order to figure how many line needs to be produced to make $500 per pay period. ie, how many lines an hour needed per 8 hour day --at your rate.

    So say $450 a week would be $90 a day.
    For example, if making 4 cents a line,need 2,250 lines a day, 281 an HOUR (to listen through and edit) to make this great wage of $90. a day FOR ALL THIS SAME SKILL, TO KEEP UPDATED WITH CHANGING MEDICAL COMMUNITY. nope Better at Jack-in-Box Pass it up.
    My post should say the post above not the post below, Sheryl's post to be specific. nm

    Sounds like it and it sounds like you must tell them when they will be and no change them. Wonder
    what you do when there is no work. Well, there will be a lot of problems with this whole plan if they dont get things straightened out with this no work situation.

    It's a "fishing" post. Same post a few days ago with numerous errors
    ROFL
    You are not allowed to post their link on this site. Post

    Read Spherson's post below, who admits, in the post, they do pay it.
    zzzzz
    Peachy, your post is interesting, but my post now is irrelevent but
    A few weeks ago I went to my clinic where they had recently implemented EHR or EMR, whichever you call it, and the doctor's back was to me the whole time he and I conversed because his nose was stuck in his laptop. To me, it felt a little more impersonal, but I understand he was doing what he had to do, but it seems like the bedside manner may go to the wayside if the doctors can't even look at you when they are asking you questions or you are speaking to him/her. I know this is relevant to your original post, but just an interesting fact that I had not anticipated. Anyone else experience this?
    This is why I NEVER post my cpl. I'll post the range of
    what the company pays, but NEVER what I make.  I know that I make more than probably 70% of the people there, because they know I produce a client ready report and that I can do anything they throw at me.   We don't have levels, but I guess if we did I'd be at the highest level.    Telling how much you make isn't so bad, but when people know what company you work for and then what you make that isn't a good combination.  The ONLY people I have ever discussed what I make with, are my husband and my MTSO owner.   Talking about your salary/pay is enough to get your fired in lots of companies.

    One post was another "run" type of post and the
    the recruiter. Once you are in with the company, the recruiter has nothing to do with you or your job. I want specifics about problems with THE JOB, not the recruiter.  Specifics such as no or late checks, line counts being messed up, no work, taking bennies away with no explanation. Things that matter, not the recruiter. 
    everytime you post, where ever you post
    unless you go through an anonymizer, your IP address can be traced back to you, even through the guises of this web site.  There are web sites you can find on the internet to do this for you, or if you are 18 years old and like to hack, it's an easy enough thing to do.
    I post a pay range, DOE; however, most don't post..
    I wish some MTs would start thinking about the business aspect of the industry.  For example, this is a public site, so go to Google or another search engine and type [the co's name] and per line, and voila! now everyone knows how much you pay your MTs.
    Post removed, you can re-post.

    Sounds like she was trying to -sm
    make you quit - probably because they overhired and have too many people. She probably thought she could bully you out the door and have one less person to have to deal with. I wonder if she treats others like that too.
    I bet so. Sure sounds like them!!
    nm
    Sounds like
    MedQuist
    SM - Sounds like you...

    must know this owner pretty well to be bashing him this way.  How is it you have come to such an opinion?  Did you work in an office with him?  I would be very anxious to hear more of your scholarly declarations such as the answer to ending world hunger and obtaining world peace?  Please, tell us more oh "wise" one....


    exactly what I was trying to say! It sounds like they sm
    are on the right track! Good luck to them.
    That sounds exactly like OSi.

    sounds like mq
    There is always someone telling everyone what excellent accounts they have, perfect sound, TONS of work....hmmmm....well, I guess it's nice that SOMEBODY is going to be able to pay the rent cause it sure ain't me.


    Sounds about right, maybe even a little low. nm

    Sounds low to me (sm)
    I made $3.00 page several years ago.  With wages lowering each and every day for the MTs, maybe someone else would like to share their thoughts.  Good luck!
    It sounds like they are not
    very technical-savvy if they need MTs to come in for training! I'd be looking elsewhere.
    They can only say no, but it sounds like they can't...
    ...afford to lose you. YOU are in the catbird seat. Ask for the raise. Really. Do it, and best of luck.
    Sounds like BTS in MA. sm
    They will take 6 weeks to send you a paycheck for 2 weeks pay, trim 30% off your line counts to supposedly cover headers/footers, and stiff you for your last check if you leave. Leave while you are ahead if it is them.
    wow. Sounds like you been there, done that. Thanks for
