    Constantly ran out of work to QA and was expected to type in order to make any money.

    Not sure why you are complaining. You make NO money doing QA for DSG, typing is the way to go.
    ....and then there is there fabulous HAHAHA $12.50

    Downtime? hahaha

    There has been no mention of that and I'm sure it wont happen.


    When the system is fixed, the most we'll get is double the amount of emails telling us how much work there is and how we all need to give us food/sleep/bathroom time to get it caught up.


    I know how to do ESLs hahaha
    Where did you get the impression that I do not know how to do ESLs!  I have done them for years at above 99% QA for crying out loud but 80% you cannot make a living doing, at least the kind of living I want!  I am only willing to do 20-30% and have never settled for less....  My question was about VR, not ESLs.
    hahaha welll.. (sm)
    I'm a tier III and still don't get paid for op notes, so don't feel toooo bad - my cpl is less than yours. ;)

    Oh great - Another psychic employee!! HAHAHA
    How about just saying yes, it is 70% of your line rate instead of making up rumors.
    Hahaha, don't hate me, but I have the beautiful NJA screen right now!!
    And I am very happy to see it. Off to drink a hot cup of coffee and bask in the warmth of the morning sunshine.

    Ta-ta.
    Amen to that.. and we are mad as heck are not taking it anymore...HAHAHA

    You're right! Hahaha My typo totally messed up the meaning!
    Yes, MQ is aware of my other position. I was very up front with them when I took their offer. Spheris probably would not be happy about my situation, I agree.

    My other comments were made because no matter what I post, someone has got to be interested in what I'm doing or not doing, whether they think it is right or not, etc.

    My whole post on this thread was an answer about great companies. I posted. Then, if you'll go back and look at this entire thread, I am the one getting all the virtual "you can't do that" complainers on my back.

    It's not anyone else's business. One of the OPs started it I suppose with the trying to tell me I can't post on this forum because I work for Spheris and I can't use their computer. Then others chime in. Then others start in with what they think I can and cannot do.

    It's none of anyone's business. I wasn't addressing any of those subjects whatsoever.

    I seem to be prime fuel for the flaming activities, regardless of the subject of my posts. Even if I respond to others, 9 times out of 10 I get flamed and for other subject matter most of those times.

    Hahaha, you are right in your answers to some of the other posters. You and I are having an adult conversation and understanding each other well, even if we disagree. THAT is how it should be.

    As I answered you somewhere in this same thread, I understand what you were bringing to light for others who may not realize about working for more than 1 company. It is a gamble. I agree wholeheartedly.

    It isn't just the competition between Spheris and MQ though. That expectation is with other companies as well, maybe not all, but most. And most, if you read the employee handbook imply that they do not want their employees on forums like this.

    One of the OPs stated that I signed a contract with Spheris forbidding me to be on this forum. No ma'am. That simply isn't true. I went back and looked at everything I've signed. I've signed no such contract. There may be an implied policy but I have not signed any such contract.

    I personally think that each company has really good aspects. I can also see where each could improve. That will be with any company though. As long as I am well paid and have flexibility and opportunity, I'm a happy clam.

    Hahaha! Pitiful and ridiculous comment. A lot of posters, as 1 poster even mentioned
    in this thread, immediately stop reading a post full of GRAMMAR mistakes, NOT typos, before getting the 'issue.'

    How can one respect the opinion of a poster whose grammar is a catastrophy, especially from an MT?

    The 1st question that pops into my head is, 'How did this person get an MT certificate?' I am not talking about typos, incorrect grammar only.


    Hahaha. Good April Fool's Day joke but gotta break the news to ya,
    :+
    u made 300 a week? That's more than I made there.
    But no work, no pay. Nice ppl, they really are, some of the nicest in the business. Just can't communicate to save their lives and the recruiters are lying dogs.

    I'd say if you're looking for part-time work, as in less than 20 hrs a week's worth of work, then this place is for you. Use them as ur backup. Because guaranteed that's all they're using you for.


    They have definitely made some changes for the better - sm
    There are a few people that are no longer there, that made working there very very very horrible, and they have a new insurance plan, and everything is going real smooth now!!
    You made my day also! nm
    .
    I have seen that ad and it made me
    sick to my stomach. That is why whenever someone finds out what I do for a living, I am extremely quick to point out the fact that you cannot make near that much. Well, I guess if you had your own accounts and lived in a very busy area, but not where I live.
    I made 38+, some are up to 50K. BUT...you need to know...
    You need to consider that recruiters work *for the company*, and they don't call the shots on what they sell. I eventually left the biz because I wasn't comfortable with what I was told to say to prospective MTs, knowing it wasn't reality. When you get in the door and things are different, remember also that the supervisor is probably not be in the know about what is sold on the front end, and the recruiter isn't to blame, either. It's senior management that should have their feet held to the fire.

    So, don't shoot the messenger, please, because they aren't always in control of the script they're given. I speak from experience.
    More $$ can be made as an RN BUT
    the work is incredibly physically demanding, shift work is the norm, and holidays have to be covered.   If you love nursing, become a nurse - but don't go into it for the $$.  
    I made nearly $60,000 ...
    …in the 80s, when I worked for a hospital. Now that I work for a national company. my salary is $24,000 a year.
    Don't know, but it made me...
    think of on-point.  Stay away, very far away....
    Made in USA

    It's pretty hard to find anything made in this country anymore.  I just recently heard that Walmart imports their produce from Mexico and China!!!  Wouldn't eat anything from that place.  I don't need my veggies fertilized with people poop thank you very much. 


    I just took my Gateway laptop back to Best Buy for the 2nd time since I bought it 3 months ago.  Hard drive went out within the first month.  Now it won't even turn on.  The guy who took it for service said it was the cheap made in China  parts.  Cheap isn't the issue with me, quality is.  But I don't particularly consider that $1200+ laptop CHEAP.


    And that is so bad??!! I have never made
    such easy $$ as here at KS on Meditech.  It rocks!!! 
    I made a little more than that....sm
    at my previous employer, but not much more, probably about $2200 a month. I am not sure what I will be making where I am now because of all the variables....efficiency of platform, difficulty level of docs, etc. However, I do live simply. I do not currently have dish tv (cannot get cable where I live). I mostly eat at home and eating out is rare. I shop the specials at the grocery store and only buy meat on sale and then I don't buy things like shrimp, salmon fillets, etc. I don't spend a lot on clothes. I drive an older model (2001) car when I drive which is not all that often. I don't take vacations anywhere but rather spend the time here at home catching up on things that have been neglected the other 50 weeks out of the year. I also have a very close relationship with my Lord and Savior and feel that helps me cope with life in general and living on a small salary in particular. I'm not saying that everything is roses or that there is nothing that I lack or want for, but because I live simply, I find that I can live better on less. I realize also that I live in an area of the country where the cost of living is relatively low by national standards and I feel very blessed in that respect. My heart does go out to those who are trapped in areas where living is more expensive. Not being able to buy a box of mac and cheese to feed your kids (as another MT mentioned on here) must be an awful feeling.
    omg u made my day!
    For Real ! thanks for that :)

    It sounds like the downsides are nothing to be worried about, I can deal with that.

    Thanks again!
    They made it up!
    I believe the person that posted the message about the earthquake in Oregon was just trying to show that you can make up and post anything; it does not necessarily mean it's true.
    Made in the USA.
    We could save a ton of money by coming together, keeping a low overhead, incorporating, organizing state offices, could keep the rate low by not having to compensate CEOs. It would have to start out slow and grow by word of mouth.

    I made a BIG mistake. SM

    I was working for this great company who only required 2000 lines a day and had a very flexible schedule.  I couldnt handle the 2000 lines a day in addition to my other position and had to quit.  Then a little later, asked if I could have another chance.  She gave me this chance and then, again, it was too hard for me to keep up with all the work.


    Now I am on a different schedule with school starting again as well as other circumstances and this would just be the perfect scenerio for me.  The 2000 lines a week.


    I have been searching for other companies that might have this type of position available and have failed to locate one.  Do you think it would be completely wrong of me to ask, yet again, for another chance?  Or would I be coming off too nutty. :-)


    Just asking for opinions.  Go ahead and tell the truth.  If you think I am a nutcase, go ahead and let me know.  LOL.  Just want pure honesty here. 


    Also if anyone else has ever been in the same position as I, I'd love to hear about it.  At least I would know I am not the only one.


    yes, I did. raises have never made me
    unhappy!
    They just made me an IC. They are liars also. nm

    You just made my day!! Thanks, I needed that!
    nm
    Thank you. I think those are just made up words.
    unfortunately
    They are made up of a web of lies....
    They lie to get you to work for them, and then they consistently lie to you about raises, incentives, etc.  If I were you, I would keep looking elsewhere.....there are many companies that are hiring.......If you go with OSI, you won't stay long. 
    I made over 40K as an MT with 100% QA scores. SM
    It is possible - but RARELY as a new MT. The money starts increasing when your fund of knowledge increases and/or you're using your Expander effectively.

    For what it's worth - I also read very quickly, so I proofread as I transcribed without slowing down.
    NOBODY, other than the person who made the
    You people really need to get a life or get back to work, one or the other...or both. Gheez!
    A list should be made...here is one
    Eskribe is owned by a Indian and all typing done in India.
    Call the IRS. IF you made over $600.00 a W-2
    or 1099 had to be mailed by 1/31/2006.  The IRS would love to intervene on your behalf to get it if needed. 
    Okay, this made me laugh.
    I worked on Vianeta years ago, and I have never been able to figure out why people who WORK on it can't SPELL it. It's a 7-letter word, how hard can it be?
    You almost made it through the post..
    Okay, you almost made it through the post and you were being positive and encouraging until you got to the part about there are a lot of people who think they can transcribe and cannot...

    Just because someone had a bad experience with your company does not mean they are a substandard transcriptionist. Their pay is low for the industry and the incentive plan makes no sense. I left because I don't believe in what is happening in Trinidad. I was always able to transcribe enough lines and always had a 99%+ QA score.
    and in my case, they have made NO
    contributions to my MetLife account this year. Hope this is only my problem, just wanted to make others aware it was happening to me.
