You've got brown stuff on your nose -
you know they monitor this board constantly!  You talk to them all the time about it.  Let's see how long it takes you to relay this posting.
It brings up 10 pages of info on TTS including the most recent stuff
nm
Did search on Futurenet and got mostly 2004 and 2005 stuff. Anybody with newer info? nm
 
Very reliable..sm
This company is very reliable.  Owner will always make sure you have enough work.  I have been with them for almost one year now and things are great.
a resume would still be more reliable

Looking for reliable independent MTSOs
I am looking for independent MTSOs. Anyone really content with their company, I would sure like to know. I have many, many years of experience. Not interested in nationals. Been there, done that.
I think they are a reliable company but some of their accounts are almost 100% ESL and very
difficult.  Check which accounts they are looking to hire for and let me know.
No way. I work there and have asked a very reliable source who would know. nm

Faster, easier, and more reliable than Autocorrect.

Try Webmedx. They run low on work, too, sometimes, but overall a more reliable place. NM.
Good luck.

It is a good place to be. Safe. Reliable. Honest.
Once an MT's abilities are proven, MDI is extremely loyal. In return the MT is loyal. The way a mutually beneficial business relationship should be.
So what should she have said oh holy one?
NM
holy cow!
so many of you who responded woke up on the wrong side of the bed today - or are you always this nasty? She is asking a question on how many of you do work every weekend and how you do it. She turned down the job so why are you so quick to crucify her? To the OP, there are still companies out there that do not require a commitment to every weekend and some that require no weekend commitment and even some that require no commitment to any set hours, like a true IC should be. I know because I work for one. It took me some time and research to find the company that met my needs, but they are out there. Keep looking; you will find the one that is right for you, too. If this one doesn't offer what you want, you did the right thing in turning them down. Stick to your priorities and good luck to you.
Holy Guacamole!
That's rather pricey! Is their pay scale such that insurance is in fact affordable? Not being sarcastic... just curious!
Holy moly! Thanks for that!

I hope you don't mind if I use it my own self!  There are a lot of questions in there I would NEVER have thought to ask.


You might want to ask about shift differential for evenings/nights/weekends, holiday pay, OT pay, whether OT is ever available and/or is OT ever mandatory.  I don't like ASR so I'd ask something about whether they were moving towards more ASR.  I can't think of anything else ATM.... Thank you for the great ideas!!


HOLY MOLY
I had no idea. WOW!
holy smokes .. shoot me!
I talk to people daily about transcription and I could not agree with you more .. what a sad state for professionalism.  You could be in the cellar transcribing in your undies, but I do not need to know this and most of the hard working MTs out there who daily do make a difference are offended by the visual.  Working remotely is not a given, but it is a boon to people with children, with disabilities, with limited access to a strong job market.  It does not mean that you do not take what you do seriously and that you give it your best.  I am so fortunate where I am to have a great team of people who work hard, turn around good work, keep their end of the bargain we make, and appreciate that they have a great situation and respect themselves for having achieved a great account, good pay, good feedback and employee status with good rates and benefits that are very affordable.  My intention is to keep it that way and thank heavens mostly I have my wits about me and choose carefully and well.  Our MTs are professionals and we thank our lucky starts for them each and every day.  The interesting thing is that I think that a recommendation for someone to come to work with you is the most sincere form of flattery and while we add to our ranks, I am getting so many referrals from our own MTs. 
Personally, I would raise holy
bloody blue .. but I have to agree that with automation today there is no excuse for not having direct deposit.  Then, to have to pay for it to be late .. I would be a mental case!  UPS rides the men, apparently they are not the tightest ship in the business any longer.  The Christmas rush was never an excuse before, it was when they shone .. lousy service seems to have an intrusive and pervasive effect on everything these days.  As for him being offended .. after 35 years there is nothing you could say that he has not said himself .. often!  Merry Christmas .. I am so sorry they failed you.
Holy never-saw-that-one-coming Batman!

Whoever you are anon....thanks for sharing that.  I honestly had no idea and it really makes me sad.  Looks like our grand formage needs his hiney paddled.  So totally not behavior becoming of any company in this day and age.   
 


Holy McMollee! Unreal! nm

Holy Cow!!!! Are you serious??? What is wrong with people??
Are you sure it wasn't in New Mexico, although not much different clientele. Wow.. I'd be moving on and telling them to lose my number.
Holy crap - one heck of a cut . sm
One of the reasons I first went with WMX was the 35 hour work week for FT with bennies. They stopped that.

The health insurance was decent, but if you chose to use it and had the option of another policy available you had to pay a penalty/fine or whatever they call it.

The ASR rate was better than other companies - now they fixed that.

I guess they will do away with our 12 hour windows next. Though I understand now everyone even has those.

I was disgruntled when I worked for MQ, but they did cut our wages in a more gradual manner.

This is a HUGE percentage and right here going into the holiday season. --

We are all going to have to hit it harder to make any money at all. You think work is short now --- just wait.


My, aren't we the Holy One. Talk about judgemental and
condescending. What makes you think you know c_p about everything? I didn't *settle* for anything, honeybunch.
Holy cow..$900..they obviously are not contributing to their employee's insurance.
That is just outrageous and one of the worst I have heard being offered. At that rate, they can go get their own plans for half the price. I had applied but never mind..I pay $360 a month now for family insurance and 9.5 cpl..so forget them..
Holy Cow -- all 3 of my accounts have work. One even OT. The secondary (sm)

one  had been particularly low for weeks now and today there is a massive quantity.  I wonder if maybe that hospital was trying out another service and just sending us a small amount. Whatever the reason, the work, at least for now has picked up greatly.   

We are having KFC for supper so I can get in there and get a few of those OT lines while they last.


Hope everyone else is having good luck with their accounts also.


 


Holy crap, that's awful. This has all be enlightening. I'm doing more reserach,
nm
Holy Smokes! That is high. That is what I was quoted for private ins.
a
Holy $&@! No wonder it is not cost effective to do VR. I make double that sm
for VR/ASR at WMX.
You must have a really brown nose then
That woman wasn't nice to anyone unless there was something in it for her.
If I was such a brown nose,
I would not have been forced to quit. Trust me, I was NOT one of their favorites! :)
Brown & Meyers Anyone?

Does anyone have any comments/experience with Brown & Meyers - good or bad. I would love to hear about this company. I have been offered a position, but do not have much info on them. Thanks.


Brown & Meyers
I have been with Brown & Meyers for almost two years and it has been a great experience. I do not have to work a specific shift, have been given a raise when I asked after a year and am never bothered with phone calls, e-mail, etc. They are very personable, helpful and willing to give me any accounts I may ask for. They use the Sten-Tel platform, which probably isn't the greatest, but it is easy and works for me. I have never had a problem with paychecks- always correct and on time. I would definitely recommend looking into working for them.
brown & meyers anyone?
has anyone worked for them or know of them?
I like Brown & Meyers
They are very nice and communicative.  IC position.  Very happy. 
Brown Nosers....exactly
You just hit the nail on the head! Why else would she be on here? Brown nosing to show her management how she does a great job in defending the company.

If she is typing for her own accounts on top of account management duties, she must be short MTs. Hmmm, maybe some of the MTs are starting to see the light.

I use to work for CyMed/SPi as well. It is a joke that all of the brown nosers seem to still stay around; and the ones that speak their mind are let go or pushed out.
Brown & Meyers
You spelled that incorrectly but yes, I have heard the same thing.  I wouldn't work for them for any amount of money. 
brown & meyers
i worked four weeks for them. tech was nice, but the training sucked. uploading/downloading was a pain. they told me i would be busy busy but i sat around waiting for work. pay was 8 cents a line. if u wanted them to edit your work, they deducted it from your pay.
Brown & Meyers NM

Love it, brown something perhaps?

Brown & Meyers
Does anyone know anything about this company, pay, workflow, platform, etc.?  Thanks for any and all info.
Your nose is brown.

Jewish high holy days begin at sundown tonight.

Happy DSG'r = Brown noser

Is this Sten-Tel/Brown&Meyers?

Brown&Myers testing
Be aware everyone, Brown&Myers online testing practice.  They change your correct answers to incorrect.  Don't waste your time with this company.

HELP NEED TO START WORKING SOON
You sound like the brown noser that

Your head is so far up her butt you look like her!


John Brown is just playing with you.
He said, NOT OFFERING A JOB.
Doesn't sound like a brown nose to me...
but rather a very grateful employee. This board is very discouraging to me. A lot of whiners who are not good medical transcriptionists and then turn it around to make the company they worked for look bad. Actually, it can be quite entertaining when I am bored.
Yes, you are someone, You are one of their token US employees. Hey, what is that brown spot
