Those are easier to do.
It makes them look good in front of a supervisor who is unaware!
I think they are easier to get, too, sm
but I only worked at MQ for a short while over a year ago. I agree that the atmosphere is better by far, too.
NP easier to understand....
but they do go on and on and on forever....just can't keep it brief.
That's easier said than done these days. sm
Even the American products are built overseas or have some ties to offshoring.
easier way to calculate
an easier way to calculate is that it is said that typically it takes 3X as long to transcribe so if itis 45 mins, multiply by 3 and divide by 60 to figure out the amount in hours  so 45 X 3 = 135, divided by 60 = 2.25  two and a quarter hours.
but it wouldn't be easier for someone who has

would probably be easier to post the ones who don't

It was easier when they were babies sm
in the pre-toddler stage.  Now that they are preschool/school age, I find it impossible to keep focused on work and them too.  I had to resort to working in the evenings when my husband was home so I could not be distracted. Good Luck!
Nothing easier than self deceit?

I was BEGGED by my supervisor to hang in there and flex.  Told that things would get better.  A bunch of lies.  Lies make me angry.  Especially lies involving my wallet.


Sorry we aren't all half vulcan and see the world with cold professional logic right along with you.  Surprise, some of us get emotional about our paychecks, especially during a recession.  But if you're that embarrassed, don't read about it, and hang out with the other vulcans.


If I kicked you in the shin, would remain the picture of diginity and grace, or would you scream because it hurt?  You are only a paragon of dignity because you personally has hurt you - yet.


I was thinking it might be easier to figure out
nm
LOL. Perhaps I should stick with MQ--easier to spell...sm

 


Thank you, me, for the info in your previous posts. 


Faster, easier, and more reliable than Autocorrect.

Is there an easier way to find out if companies offshore?
I have worked for 3 companies that all offshored and were absolutely not forthcoming about it upfront. I never want to work for one again. Is there a list somewhere or am I banging my head on the wall. Again.
Dictaphone EXT or Chartscript-Which do you think is an easier platform.
I have worked on Dicatphone and thought that system was fairly easy to learn. How does Chartscript compare to that platform and production wise. thanks
as the poster below says, clinic work is not easier
I work for a large multispecialty clinic, general surgery - transcribe rotator cuff surgery, hernia or breast reconstruction; urology - transcribe the urinary system; orthopedic - joints and bones and muscles, ENT issues, cardiologisy and veins, arteries and valves, dermatology, neurology and nervous system.
MQ speech platform MUCH easier and MT friendly than TT's

Dictatphone Exspeech is just awful !!!!  You will see, I guarantee you  !!!


DQS is excellent editing platform.


Truckdriver woman? LOL
.
You must have seen the ad that has the woman with the child on her lap - sm
That's a joke. All the pictures show the moms with the kids on their laps transcribing away. DOES THIS SEEM REALISTIC TO YOU?? But yet, people fall for it! I have been doing this for 15 years and make $62,000, but I PAID MY DUES AND WORKED MY BUTT OFF to get there. I worked in a hospital with others around me to help me out, when I was confident I left and worked at home, now I'm doing my own thing.
This is hogwash. This woman
took the time to give a thorough interview. She worked with me when I needed help on their website and made herself available by phone as late as midnight when I had a problem with something on the website. Not many recruiters will take the time as this woman has done and I applaud her for that. I also know that she bent over backwards for me answering all my questions. I was referred to her by another applicant who received the same treatment from her that I did. These types of things are the very reason why I do not listen to most of what is said on these boards. I find out for myself but I know the type of treatment I received as well as a fellow MT.
A woman who went crazy
Keep in mind that I am old. Back many decades ago, in the early 70s, I worked in a large teaching hospital and we had just gotten those self-correcting Selective typewriters which at the time were all the rage. One of our MTs, a woman who had never been too stable a person, had had enough of a terrible dictator one day and she stood up, picked up her typewriter (they were heavy!) and threw it against the wall, thereby earning herself a free trip to the psychiatric ward upstairs. That happened 40 or so years ago and I have never forgotten it. On its face it sounds funny, but it was really sad. I wonder whatever happened to her......
So who is? That Parrot woman?

No, it's not the Parrot Woman... SM
If you work at Acusis, the CEO sent you a Christmas card... But if I mention his name, I'll be banned from MTStars (again).

The Parrot Person is VP in charge of... what? wage cuts?
A GROWN woman?
Don't make me laugh! You attacked the OP with tons of gender-based insults about a person YOU know nothing about - only that that person would prefer a schedule that did not REQUIRE every weekend.

You ARE NOT grown, whether you are a woman or a man.

Dermatology typically an easier or more difficult specialty? Thanks. nm
xxxxxxxx
That always makes it better. I do local to Houston and since I live there, it seems easier
nm
I do my daily or every couple days after my shift. Much easier (nm)

issues talk to lawyer. This is easier than starving?

I started out in radiology. It's so much easier than acute care.
Never figured out why they separate it from the rest since it's just another specialty. If you can do acute care, you can do radiology, so might as well give it a whirl! Gotta be better than Softscript.
the woman contacted me last year to see if I was -
interested in training for this. It is quite expensive, but yet seemed legitimate. At the time I was already overwhelmed with my own work and accounts and just never got into it. Basically scoping is just learning how to read a stenographer's notes and then you would "transcribe" them. My understanding is that stenographers differ from each other with the way they take "notes" so you would have to adjust to each stenographer.

But some stenographers/court reporters will dictate their notes onto a tape and send them to someone to transcribe.
Geez. Pay the woman if she worked for you. nm
nm
You mean the woman who took her time to walk me
through a problem at midnight one night? She spent her time helping me at their website and she did not have to do that. You call that hateful?

You people are too much.
I know who "this woman" is, but who is her lackey? sm
I thought she did it all. Thanks.
Just guessing but it might be the woman who owns KS??
nm
But people here are posting this woman's name!
gfdsafd
You did 100s of reports in a day? What are you, wonder woman? nm
LMBO.
He-Man Woman Hater's Club?
ah, old joke.
You-Lose-Ski, Parrot Woman, etc
Mr. You-Lose-Ski is no longer CEO but he is still heavily involved financially in the company.  The new CEO rhymes with Slave Driver minus a few letters and is good buddies with You-Lose-Ski and they used to work together - You-Lose-Ski said that in the meeting where he announced he was leaving. Day to day stuff such as pay cuts is handled by Parrot Woman and her counterpart in India whose first name rhymes with Maybe.
To the woman who asked me about Keystrokes... sm
Your email addy didn't work.  I keep getting an error message when I try to reply.  I can't locate the original post the question was generated from.  If you'd like to try and email me again that'd be great.
Neither honey. Just a grown woman
who does her job and doesn't act like a child who doesn't get her way. Hmm, maybe that's why I can get my lines in during a regular 40 hour week and don't have to whine and complain about every single thing that doesn't suit me. This board has become the poor me, feel sorry for me, I hate my company but I have no guts to go somewhere else or learn something new board.
yes, a woman is perceived (esp. by men) how she presents herself...nm

Much easier and better process of doig this, as I worked at a hospital on ExText nm

IMO, it's just easier to be rude hiding behind the guise of a screen name. The hateful ones here
It's likely that the hostile MTs that constantly spew negative remarks are the same ones who are too passive to speak up for themselves in the real world. They are basically cowards that take crap all day then come here and anonymously take their pinned up frustrations out on everyone else.

I have seen this on many message boards, but for whatever reason, MT Stars is the absolute worst for this. Isolation must be a huge factor. Some of these gals just need to get out once in a while. JMO
not a major company - woman owned
around 100 employees but not positive
Sounds like the woman I used to work for. She is not located in -sm
NJ by chance. If so, things will not improve. Start looking for another job ASAP. I know it sucks for you right now but I found another job and I am making more $$ and I have a lot less stress. I too, hated the thought of going through finding another job, liked the accounts I typed and so forth. Good luck to you. I hope you ended up better off down the road.
Sounds like a woman i worked for in Colorado..nm

Better be glad you got the easier dictators soon, because you're time is coming for the ^^^REAL^^

dictators!  Be glad you got off now.  I wondered where my better dictators went the last week or so !!!!!  Lucky you !!!!!


I can always tell when the TT favorite MT's are off, because I get their dictators -- making it easier for me to get my line count. Yea !


TT is constantly hiring, so the above scenario is a norm. 


Truckdriver woman? I worked with her before, she was a great boss to me.

The woman who manages the C-Bay office in Annapolis is a former employee of MQ. nm

Ever hear of woman's intuition? Find another before you leave

You silly, closed-minded, judgmental woman...
I am part of the MDI/Transcend merger, so if I choose to laugh at the irony of the entire MESS we are ALL involved with, I will.

Who made YOU the LOL police, or did you self-appoint yourself to that all-important position?

Get a grip. You're not the only one stuck in this crisis so climb off of that cross you're dangling from and save a tree, mmmkay???

I'm sure I'll love having YOU as a new co-worker *eye roll*

I just adore Harrie. She is the nicest, most patient woman. Her site is the
