Agree. Agree. Agree.

Both coporate sides make big bucks by paying so little. More to stuff in their pockets.

But because they are so desperate for anything, I can hear all the Indian MTs singing while doing our work:

Every time it rains, it rains -- Rupees from heaven!

The CEOs of corporations don't have pupils in their eyes--they have dollar signs.

Hallelujah!!!
The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

VERY sad day, NOT for MDI-MD, but for MDI-MD loyal MTs who were just tossed aside like yesterday's trash, just part of the deal.

What makes it even more irksome is the silence we've all been met with as we struggled with no work for the past several months, our concerns dismissed and ignored.

Like I said, CLASSY MOVE, D, WAY TO SHOW YOUR MTs THAT SANG YOUR PRAISES ON THIS BOARD INNUMERABLE TIMES YOUR APPRECIATION.

What a travesty.

Have you tried taking Tylenol PM
It helps take away the pain you have in your shoulders and back from typing all day and it helps you sleep. May be a little better than Benadryl.

I know how you are feeling regarding MQ; I am there too and deciding on jumping ship.

That is another long story which I will have to go into at another time.

Have a good day or try at least and try the Tylenol PM

No but was thinking about it. If you only had one blank

I'm considering going into office. I can't take this (blank)

cannot leave ID # blank

It will not allow me to leave the User ID # blank - won't work, so I guess I may have to check with the clinic and see if they have an ID number from when they registered their Olympus Software?

Thanks for the quick reply. Bon

smartmed blank policy
Smartmed makes you list 3 sources for any blank you send to Qa. Then you put the report on hold and they send you back the answers for the blanks and you must pull up the report and fill them in. VERY LABORIOUS and consumes your pennies per line VERY rapidly.

What were you supposed to, leave a blank?
but if the QA person said it was Kathy instead of Cathy, how did the QA person know she got it right?

Spheris sent journal/day planner. Blank

yes, but remember that Word counts blank lines, as well. nm

I used to have a QA guy that couldn't transcribe, couldn't fill in a blank,

but was anal retentive when it came to punctuation. You would have a report with 10 blanks in it because of poor sound quality, and he wouldn't fill in one blank, but he had put commas all throughout your report, or taken apostrophes out, etc. and he wasn't correct in his punctuation a lot of the time. Several of the MTs complained about him and asked to not have him do their QA, so he was demoted from QA to an MT. Well, as I said earlier, he couldn't fill in a blank. I saw a couple of his reports and there was blank after blank in reports that I had no trouble with at all. He also didn't proof his reports because he would have inapproriate/incorrect expansions in them. Not sure if he left on his own, or didn't really have a choice. Anyway, talk to your supervisor. Maybe this person is just on a power trip, knows you are new and wants to train you to do it her way, even if your way isn't incorrect. I think punctuation is a valid issue, but if it doesn't change the integrity of the report and there are no other errors it shouldn't be flagged by QA. You could also take into account her corrections and maybe try to use a few more commas, etc. and that might help.
