By Ditto, I meant I once belonged to the board (sm )

to the board that charged a membership fee and it was like a ghost town -- not worth the money.

    Just like with Carole and YOG - the companies belonged to them. (sm)
    Yes, it killed me when Carole sold, but she didn't have to ask my permission. She gave me work, paid me well, lots of bonuses and perks.

    Granted, even a mass E-mail thanking everyone and wishing them well in future endeavors would have been nice, but perhaps this was a hard thing for Dorothy to do, just like it was for Carole and they need to make a quick clean exit on that part of their life.

    Give her a break and concentrate on setting your situation up to benefit yourself. Good luck.

    Ditto. I stopped even reading the company board recently
    I could not even get through the conversations to the real information on companies. I come here to be informed and to be supportive, but it has gotten tiring going through the constant redundant arguing. I almost gave coming here but it is part of my day. I just come here less now.
    Sorry, meant to put this on the MQ board. nm

    Oops, sorry...I meant job board. nm

    Sorry. Meant this for the main board.

    Ditto that ditto..ESLs drove me out too...nm

    Ditto, ditto, ditto. My experience exactly.
    I have never typed so fast and made so little in my life except for at Amphion. Good for supplemental income but not if you really need some money.
    I meant nothing wrong. I meant a friend who can vouch for

    It was not meant to be nasty. I meant that you should take every job seriously. Just because someo
    is their focus does not mean that patients should suffer. 96% accuracy could mean the difference to someone who is on the receiving end of that report. I am NOT QA or management but I am an experienced Transcriptionist who believes that the reports we transcribe need to be accurate for the patient's sake.
    That is not what I meant at all! Meant broaden to

    Broaden to think leave to other profession if that is what is wanted, dont limit yourself to thinking only can leave to another MTSO.  Geeesh.


    MedQuisters, topics from the Company board are being moved to the MedQuist board. MQ posts on

    the first page of the Company board will be removed to open up space for other companies to post.  Enjoy the new Medquist board set up for you.


    Thank you,


    Administrator


    Are you the same condescending person the word board? I thought this was called "Company Board.&#

    Didn't you post this on 03/04/06 on both the Company Board and the Hospital/Clinic MT Board?

    This was moved from main board to company board. Replies don't transfer. nm

    Then this is the "Unprofessional" MT board. Pulic board,

    ditto
    Excuse me for speaking my opinion. If those in the management team weren't so worried about shooting off RUDE emails maybe they could reply to a question I had last week that is now 120 hours old and still have no answer to my question. People just blow me away especially at SS.
    Ditto.

    Don't stretch what I said.  I said it was rude to say get a life to someone who is trying as hard as they can already. That's what my post was about, so don't twist my words either.  There is a shortage of work and you know it. You said it's common this time of year and I'm not arguing that.  I'm agreeing with you.  About time you recognized that there is a work shortage and stopped candy coating it.  Because this shortage has been going on for a while now, not just the summer months.  My post wasn't so much about the shortage as it was about the rude comment.  It WAS rude to those people who are already giving up a lot of their life to Transcend.  


    ditto for me
    Same here. (actually twice)
    Ditto
    /
    Ditto everything you are saying. MQ is definitely up to something and I think a lot of MTs are and
    will continue to walk as they continue to come up with new ways it seems to get rid of MTs and QA people. I still think they are getting ready for a merger or sell out.
    ditto
    leave email address
    Ditto
    I found nothing to like about it either. I'm actually taking a pay cut, to have more restrictions and expectations put on me, and benefits I don't need or want.

    The $50 I'm losing every month on my internet pay was enough to make me want to quit, the rest was just icing on the cake.




    Ditto - NM

    Ditto - sm
    I agree - and when you have no idea what to get anyone, let alone the money to buy it, plus all the other preparations that go with the season, it's just not worth it. The real reason for the season is totally disregarded. I truly hate this time of year.
    Ditto...

    Didn't pass the test either - though I thought I did pretty well.  Said I could retest in six months or if I was willing to purchase the required textbooks I could retest immediately.  I emailed them back asking what the required textbooks were, but never got an answer.  Oh, well!!


     


     


    Ditto.
    I'm always amazed at this. Yes, they most certainly do beg for the jobs and then when they get it...cry, cry, cry.

    If you want work that is somewhat easy, go do clinic work. There is no such thing as easy acute care work. There are lots of dictators on most acute care accounts. Hospitals are pretty big...ya know? Big hospital=lots of docs.

    You may want to go get a job in a different field. Your poor skills as an MT has nothing to do with Spheris. You'll always have poor skills if you don't try.
    ditto the above about ETP
    Totally disorganized, unprofessional, plays favorites, lies about work amount, low work most of the time and just generally treats their employees like cattle, worked there 4 years much to my dismay!!
    Ditto that.

    Ditto what DRC-MT just said! :-) nm

    double ditto

    I couldn't have said it better myself.  Having done the rounds with other nationals and working in house, I am thrilled to be with this company after my 25+ as an MT professional. 
    Ditto that.....nm

    Ditto on SS.
     
    Ditto
    I have been an intern with Deb for a month now and she more than goes out of her way for those of us determied to be an MT. She is always nice and helpful and I feel very lucky to be learning from her.
    Ditto!!
    What an organized piece of sorry xcuse of a company!! I don't like having to ask and ask and ask and ask about my check. And, you see this woman on IM but yet she never answers you unless you send a threatening IM about reporting her to the company she subcontracts for. Gone from there for good!
    Ditto!
    Beautifully said!
    Ditto and then some
    None of SoftScript's managers know proper grammar or spelling, just pathetic, but must be an embarrassment when they contact their clients. With managers that dense you can do much better.

    OSI managers know proper sentence construction with the exception of QA manager who is in a class by herself but they send work offshore so you don't need that.

    Oracle and TTS are awful overall and MDI in FL outsources as well.

    Hope this helps. Slim pickins.
    ditto that

    Ditto.
    They also give an anniversary bonus of $100 for each year you've worked for them. I'm a year away from my 5th anniversary when I will bump up to 3 weeks vacation. Great place.
    ditto for me

    Ditto
    I also would like to thank DRC/Acusis for the very nice MT week gift.  I am so proud for work for such a wonderful company.
    Ditto for me...
    Trained 1 day, worked 1 day, then no work...... quit.
