something else. If you have ever had a business you would know that the half that you think they are keeping is NOT their profit! They have to pay self-employment taxes just like you do on the money coming in, overhead, etc. Dont waste so much time worrying about it. You are gonna get an ulcer! GEEZE!

hopefully you put as much energy into your work...
as you do spreading nonsense remarks... if you aren't happy, give your notice and jump to the other side of the fence.
Don't waste any more energy on them. What goes
would tell them thanks but I accepted a position with another company making 25 cents per line.   
Thanks LTMT! You have boundless energy,
and it is amazing how we have tracked each other through our job searches. We almost worked together at E-Trans, but missed a few days and Keystrokes, but missed each other about a year. I am glad you have found a place like Cardioscribes you consider home and DTS! Now, do remember to take some time for yourself... at least 10 minutes just to dream dreams, because after all that is why we work, so some day we can afford to live the dream! Happy Holidays and great to see you too!
You are wasting your time and energy!
There are jobs being off-shored in almost every industry imaginable. Call customer service or tech support for any major company, and you are bound to be speaking to someone from a different country. That is the way it is and that is the way it will continue to be now that we have worldwide communication in mere nanoseconds. You can do whatever you want, but nothing you do is going to change anything. The Internet and the telecommunication industry have created a worldwide workforce and it is here to stay!

As far as quality goes, have you ever seen some of the reports transcribed by citizens of the United States? The quality of the reports I have seen is appalling! Martians could probably produce more accurate medical reports than many people on this very forum can produce.
Soulmates....I think if people spent more energy
on positive things, they'd have quite a lot more to offer this new company.  If we all sit around feeling sorry for oh my where has this profession gone or we're doomed, then that is what the outcome will be.  Show the new owner that you care and just do a good job.  People do lose their jobs in this profession.  It is NOT ALWAYS to another country.  There are U.S. MTs that will underbid you in a heartbeat and get the job done just as well.  Everyone wants to blame offshoring, but I do not believe that to be the case in every instance that someone loses an account.  You'll read posts, I lost my account, but never the details of well I was two months behind and really didn't care about when and how I got the work done.  Doesn't everyone look for someone to blame?  I call these kinds of people blamers.  JMO.  
I wish I had the energy to do all that you guys do. How do you stay motivated? NM

Who cares?
I can't even believe that all of you are wasting your time talking about how to spell the stupid word anyway. Don't you have something better to do with your time than argue about how to spell a word that really ISN'T a word? GET A LIFE!!!
WHO CARES
NM
NOBODY CARES!!!!
Enough already. Do you have enough work now? I am flooded with work for over 3 weeks now (not complaining, love it).
Who really cares..? I don't!!!. nm

who cares

17 yrs exp. and nobody cares
I'm so sick of seeing ads requiring mega years of experience in multiple specialties, working knowledge of various platforms and every conceivable toy already installed on your computer only to find out the pay is entry-level at best.
Here we go again … who cares? nm

Look out for #1, who cares about anyone else.
Sigh. Thank goodness our forefathers weren't as selfish as we've become.
Nobody cares where you work or what you think.

who cares if they are in india

i heard good things about them


But who really cares? Anyone that has been in this business
knows it takes awhile to get back to people!!!!! If every company came on this board to read their stats, it would be full of stats. Do we really want to see them? If we do, I urge Transolutions, Transcend, Medware, every company that posts to come to this board and say all this. Do we really want to know. The board would be full of statistics. Do we care? No!
Like who the heck cares if she is one or not?

CMT according to AAMT, who cares?
I attended the best MT school in my area in 1971. It was held in a very large medical center with a R.N. supervisor as the instructor for our medical subjects and an English/Business teacher who taught medical office procedures,health, etc. We saw autopsies, learned to give injections and take BPs. We did rounds with doctors during our internship. We worked in the field in this hospital in at least 9 different areas, doing medical transcription, and were graded by the department supervisor at the end of each term. This on-hands medical training gave us the absolute best when it came to understanding what what we were transcribing. At the end of the course, we were given CMT pins and diplomas and I have considered myself a CMT ever since, which is a heck of a lot longer than the AAMT has been in existence! I do not care about any list they have compiled nor do I care about a $300 test they give so you can become certified. That means nothing to me. I have my excellent training and over 35 years of experience, as well as my diploma stating I am a certified medical transcriptionist, and that is what I am.
really who cares if you have nothing to hide?
now if they are delving into your personal life then thats another story, thats just plain nosey. But a criminal background check is not a bad idea.
You know what everyone? Who cares if you're a CMT or not...
If you're good, you're good. If you're not, then oh well. I make $21 (yes, $21) per hour PLUS incentive, and I'm not a CMT. So there. Get over yourselves. My goodness.
So what noone cares about my opinion? I am still

Managment cares
The upper management, and I mean the administration, lets you know they really care and they admit that it is the MTs that are the backbone of the company. They let you know you are appreicated.
who cares if they're mgt ?

Who flippin' cares?!?!

For the people who don't like what she does, guess what?  You don't have to work for her.  If you're tired of seeing her job ads, guess what?  Use your scroll bar and move past it.  But please, stop creating thread after thread about her company.  It's getting really old... and it's so pointless.


Who ASKED? And WHO CARES ..nm

Well, good for you. Who cares if
fellow MTs can afford to feed their families with the lastest pay cuts, as long as YOU are doing fine.
If you think MTSO looks out for/cares for anyone

Who cares your opinion? Get over

who cares if its not a lot of money! You worked and

You should be paid. 


I let this go with a local medical transcription company.. only thing is I worked there (at the company) 5 days 6 hours a day and never got paid. I figured I gained experience and they weren't worth fighting.  I was just happy to be away from the place and the people who worked there.  I H-A-T-E-D that place.  In all honesty though, if they send me ANYTHING in the mail as far as taxes are concerned after not paying me.. something will be done.


clicks, cliques..who cares..nm

If it does not affect your paycheck, who cares.....sm
If you can do as many lines or as much work as you want daily, who cares if you are on QA for 5 years. How they run that part of their business should not matter to you, unless you are limited as to how much work you get; thus affecting your paycheck.

I would not give a hoot if they kept me on QA for years, as long as I make my daily line requirement I need to survive.

Just my 2 pennies worth!! :-)


Who cares about punctuation and grammar?
With the doctors using EMR and VR without editing, these things are a thing of the past.  Medical records are a mess and nobody cares.
I put my email at the top up there and no one cares enough to write. They just want to complain
and tell untruths about this company. Some are a good fit, others not, but the things that I am reading are definitely not true. I would not worry about constant complainers. These people would not fit in anywhere and I am not upper management either nor am I lower management.
If anybody cares, here is my experience looking for a job for the past 3 weeks

One company writes and says they are hiring and will have a coordinator contact me to schedule testing.  I schedule the test.  She then writes that she will be out of the office and to reschedule with her when she gets back.  When she got back, I wrote her and never heard from her again about rescheduling.  That was a company that begins with the letter F + net.  Not impressed.


Now transcending that scenario, next company that begins with the letter T...I tested and was offered a position by recruiter only to then be told they did not have the speciality I was looking for after being assured they did before testing.  We both agreed to put everything on hold.  Later, she contacts me and points me to a job ad for another company offering the work type I was looking for (?) which was nice but odd but then goes on to say she is leaving herself at the end of the month.  Recruiters at companies helping you find better jobs at other companies?I'm not real impressed.


Now...the company that recruiter referred me to begins with an Arch and hardly any posts on them anywhere to be found.  They tested me and offered me a position to start ASAP on a new account...ASAP drags out 2 weeks and then am told contract negotiations fell through so no account.  I can do another account on a different platform if I want - hmmmm not what I was looking for.  Recap = offered a position on an account they didn't have.  Not impressed.


In the meantime, investigate going back to a company I used to work for that is unmentionable here - begins with a big M.  I used to work for them so I thought go back to my old account.  Three weeks, many e-mails and phone calls later I am hooked up with a recruiting firm they hired and they send me paperwork and schedule me for training.  I complete training last week and have heard nothing from production super as promised but I have received 3 phone calls today from recruiting firm asking me if I need to be scheduled for training (and 2 of those people have never heard of the third person who called me so I am left wondering who I gave my SS# to).  Tried corporate office - no luck - no way to contact anybody.  Recruiter who had me return my paperwork to her does not know if it was received because she doesn't handle that.  Hmmmm....TRULY not impressed.


Another inquiry with yet another company yielded a reply e-mail that stated there was a testing file attached.  Hmmm....no file attached.  Answered that e-mail and have heard nothing since.


What in the world is going on?  Are there truly any good companies left? They keep running ads and complaining about a lack of good MTs when the fault lies possibly, quite possibly, in their complete lack of professionalism that immediately sends up a red flag to prospective employees.  When they get their acts together maybe they will have MTs.


Sorry but I needed to rant!!!!!!!!!!!! 


She did not say she cares what happens to Transcend, just making her point.

re: She did not say she cares what happens to Transcend, just making her point.
And her point is?
And who cares if the owners are enjoying the profits???
It's their business anyway! Are you saying if you owned your own business you wouldn't enjoy the profits WHO WOULDN'T. Please. Keystrokes is a super company and the CEO, managers, co-workers, everyone is awesome!
I agree...who cares how she spends her money? (sm)

She personally worked with me over the last couple months to get me a solid backup account.  I don't know how many people who own companies who would take the time to e-mail one of her MTs several times back and forth to try to find a backup account for them.  Normally that is done by someone in the office.  But she really worked with me one on one.  I can't tell you how much I appreciate that and how it went a long, long way to convince me that I should definitely stay at Keystrokes.  It's communication and dedication like that that sets Keystrokes apart and makes them a cut above many other companies.


I strongly disagree; Transcend cares a lot for its employees
If you do not want to play the game, just ignore the e-mails. Or, you may find another company is better for you. No sense being miserable.
And if the owners are gamblers, who cares? I'm glad you entertain yourself.


Definitely not TransTech -- gets worse and worse with no work each and every day and who cares???

NOBODY, except the MT's who are making less and less money and losing whatever comfortable lifestyle they had previously had the pleasure to live.  Unless you have more than 1 member in the household to bring in the money, or you have received an inheritance from family member, there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY TO MAKE A LIVING AT Transtech anymore.  They absolutely DON'T CARE either.  TransTech mgmt will not talk about it; only promises of new accounts coming on . . . ha !  Possibly an overflow account to replace the LOST account. 


I so wish mgmt's paychecks would be affected by this NO WORK situation that has been going on for more than a year now and they would get out of that Houston high-dollar office and FIND US MT's some WORK !
