    Oldie but a Goodie
    You are a wise person. What you say is true and very well-stated. Thank you.
    I thought I had read in their material
    before they took it off their website that they don't pay the MT until they get paid from their client. No way would I work for that type of pay plan.

    I received the test material and the information (sm)
    If they offered employee status, I would be glad to test for them, but not IC status for $14 per hr.
    She sounds like future SUIT material, to me.

    Hey Queen
    NOPE, I'm NOT management, but if I was I sure would have better things to do then hang out on a message board reading all this mess. I'm just a lowly albeit satisfied home-based medical Transcriptionist who loves my job and the company I work for. Wonder why nobody else posts their first names on here?
    Platform a bit slow, loads of material to know on each acct, they overhired
    for the acct they put me on, so I sit and wait for work to roll in. They gave me a secondary acct, but again I wait. I think some are happy there, I might be if they didn't overhire and they beefed up their platform to move a little quicker.
    question to OP queen

    I am assuming since you are on the Medquist board you work for Medquist and make that much? I'm assuming because of your name your specialty is operative reports, my favorite report type to transcribe are op reports.  I was just wondering, it is encouraging to hear that, but even if not for Medquist, just to be in the field and to be able to make that much.  I certainly don't make that much now, but hope to.


    Queen Coal?
    Is that the royal we? Who are you speaking for, other than yourself?


    If you don't like the thread, just don't read it. I don't like the use of names, either, I don't feel it's appropriate, but until free speech is repealed she has the right. And if the moderators feel it's inappropriate, they have the right to remove it.
    If this isn't management, I'm Queen of

    Flo the Fertility Queen has spoken

    I agree -- drama queen of the century (sm)
    Not only that, check with your accountant. She claims the MTs are ICs but subjects them to so many rules/regulations, provides the software (no need as just Word would do fine), etc. My state's department of labor is investigating, and I also filled out that IRS form to get a determination, but my accountant says there's no question she was treating people like employees but not paying the taxes, etc. Too bad -- Stanford was fun work, even if it was only clinic work.
    Well, Cleopatra queen of denial - ever occur to you that if someone
    this industry has gone down the toilet and there are so few companies worth even working for these days?  You're amazingly misguided, but whatever gets you through.
    Thank you for your commentary, Cleopatra Queen of Denial
    The sky may not be falling but what is falling is the bottom out of this business.

    Outta here while I still have time to get an education and move on.

    I wish you the best of luck.
    Are you the cliche queen, lol. Read between line,
    we
    Since you are the queen of perfection, I shouldn't have to point out it is catastrophe. nm

    Don't work for them and don't drive them.
    nm
    Yes, it drive me nuts too
    I think I work for the same company as you!
    hard drive
    If you just delete the icon or link to it, yes, it will still be on your hard drive. If you go into Control Panel and Remove Program it will be deleted from the hard drive.
    But if you don't drive as part of your MT job,
    then why would there be a reimbursement? Or do you pick up and deliver tapes? Or work in house?
    How can 1 person drive someone away sm

    from a job when everyone works at home?  At least I think everyone is working at home.  I have worked places where I didn't like the people I worked with, but as long as I don't have to look at them all day what do I care?


    I am starting to believe there is a certain percentage of people in MT (at whatever level) who are unbelievably sensitive to the point where they cannot work with or for anybody, either because they get upset over some imagined insult or because they are trying to be the top dog and aren't.


    To the SpellCheck Queen and Grammar Police...Sorry for the errors. I sent it before proofing.
    I know it's a MT no-no.
    They have to drive a whole 10 miles. I am so jealous.

    WOW.  They have to drive a whole ten miles.  I am so jealous.   Since MANAGEMENT is based in Madison, Wisconsin and it takes 20 minutes to travel from one end of the city to the other, I do not think driving through the snow for a SPA weekend is all that much of a bonus.  Now Cancun.  That would be a bonus. 


    won't it still be stored on the hard drive?
    or do you not need to worry about that? 
    That's where they are, on Park Place Drive according
    s
    Wow, are you blessed! I have 3 hospitals in a 25-min. drive &

    We want companies to advertise - not drive them away.
    Please do not mock their offers.

    Residents and PAs drive me crazy
    I have a resident who NEVER, EVER gives the patient's name.

    I have a PA who can't pronounce meds let alone spell them ~ she says solatol, Spivira ~ and one time on a discharge summary, she listed 50 diagnoses. Took up a whole page. It was insane.
    I'll take drive-bys any day over beheadings

    STAY AWAY if you want to keep your sanity. They drive you crazy sm
    with the constant changes. Every once in a while, the owner says she can't pay payroll and you have to wait but she does always pay eventually. It stays on track for several months and then happens again.

    I thought I had it good there until I went to another service and found out that drama is not the daily norm for other companies.

    The owner is a little nuts, but I probably would be in her shoes.

    I also know that they are not as big as they lead people on to believe. Makes me wonder what else is not quite the truth.

    Best move I made was to leave.
    Would you please email me. I have a few questions before I drive myself nuts with this. nm
    :
    You will have to completely format the hard drive first
    delete any partitions and create a new partition, format the C drive and then install Windows XP. I have done this a ton of times and have had no problems.
    Same here. Too much fuzz and static on the lines. Redid the hard drive, new phones, new sound card,
    n
    I got a travel mug! I work at HOME. I drive 10 miles a week. I don't drink coffee. Sheesh! lo
    nm
    Happy New Year. May we all have happy home lives (sm)
    and do whatever it takes to make our work lives work for us too. 
    Right and told we should be happy we have jobs. Not too happy right now.

    MDI Maryland HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY
    THIS IS NOT MDI IN NY OR FL!!

    www.mditrans.com.

    I can't say enough nice things about this company; very flexible, you area a statutory employee. That means that they pay the employer portion of your SS. Great on time pay, tons of work. Do your lines and you are left alone! Expect to be responsible though. Pay for your phone; rent a Lanier or a C-phone if you don't have one; BayScribe platform. Anything that is a bit of an inconvenience is more than made up for. You will know to the minute how much you will make and how many lines you have typed. Check it out!

    happy here
    Positive experience for me. Two years later, still happy, still busy, still meeting 300+ lines an hour. To each his own... guess it's jump on Diskriter is crap band wagon again day. On any given day, one company or another is being ripped a new one on these sites.
    Probably one of the best. I'm happy there.

    Happy with QT and FCM!!! nm

    Happy there......
    I am very, very happy at OSi. I left a company where I had been a IC for over 8 years and went with OSi as an employee. I have had no regrets. I think some people say QA is snooty because they expect a job to be done right and often times it isn't. We have access to all reports typed on our accounts and to tell you the truth, it's amazing how some of these MTs got hired.

    I love the platform, pay is always on time and often incentives create huge paychecks. They are very professional and very flexible. No cons as far as I can see.
    That's cause we are happy!!
    Why do you want to bash anyway,let's talk about good things
    I am happy too
    There are some that still like Transcend.  i understand that others have valid complaints, but not everyone there experiences the same issues.  Some of us are really telling the truth when they say they are happy.
    Happy for you.
    I hope you like your new job. I have been contemplating applying with them myself but worried about their flexibility.
    YAY!!! I am so happy for you. Out of (sm)
    all the places I have worked, they really are the best!! For many,many reasons!!
    Yep and happy about it!
    Yes I make 1 cent less than what FOCUS would hire me on for at their top pay. In exchange I get to work with an amazing company who treats me with respect, knows who i am, who my children are, listens to what i have to say and so much more. It is worth the cent to work for a great company.
    Happy to Mad?
    so have you changed your attitude about MQ? this is exactly what MQ doesn't want to happen -- MTs being able to find out what is going on in different offices, wage-wise and otherwise.
    ARE YOU HAPPY THERE?
    Can you be hired on as SE?
    Happy.....
    Sweetheart, you have no business releasing your venom on me. You are one with the mental health issue. If you were indeed a "Happy OSI'er," you would not care what anyone else thinks or says about that company.

    The fact that you can get enraged so easily when other people express opinions contrary to your own tells me that you are indeed in need of a little Zoloft, Xanax, or maybe just a good dose of reality. The rest of the world doesn't have to agree with you about anything. It does not make us dysfunctional, depressed, unhappy, or stupid. It just means we see things differently.

    You're in for a rough ride in life if you are get so upset about others' opinions.
