misread you, thought already working employee, sorry. NM

You obviously misread the post.
This is the very reason why I directed my post to MTSOs because so many MTs do not take the time to read things in order to get the true meaning of the post.

This in no way allows any snooping. It does not give the MTSO access to your PC. It is simply a diagnostic report that lays out the specs of ones PC. Nothing more.
You misread or misunderstood her post. It isn't
the bank she was worried about having the info but the MTSO having her banking information.   Between no check, corrupted file that contained the contract, and the phone being disconnected I would be seriously concerned and keep daily watch on my account.  Working without a signed contract isn't a good idea, though having a signed contract isn't foolproof either. 
oops - misread post- confused with another

that's what I thought but she was under my post

Thanks, BlueEyes. Much more well thought out than my post. sm
We can't talk out of both sides of our mouths, on one side complaining about offshoring, while on the other side buying foreign products. 
Love your post. Never thought about it that way. (sm)
Glad to be going to work for a company that has people with positive attitudes like yours and others I see posted here.
At first I thought I had written your post
The same thing happened to me.  Yet I continue to try and I ask myself WHY???  I am retired so I've got mine, why should I care about anyone else?  I guess cuz that's just the way I am.
Are you being sarcastic or serious? I thought it was a good post. nm

I thought I saw a post somewhere that says they pay bimonthly and not biweekly. Can anyone

Sorry for the double post - I thought it didn't *take*

Thanks, that was me, but could not find so thought I forgot to post nmI

Well said. Never worked for D&L but when I read the "IC" post, that was my thought as well..nm

Actually, I thought her post was professional. Do you work at MDI? I doubt it.
she can most likely weed out the MTs just by their posts anyway if she's dealt with them at all. She did the right thing to simply state MDI MTs can come to her IF they have concerns. It's great to share info, but not ALL posts are by sister MTs sharing the good word. There are many, many who love to incite drama and there are always 2 sides to every story! Anyone can come on here and claim they are great MTs and do all that is expected of them yet are treated terribly by a company, but that sure doesn't make it the truth. About how many MTs do you think are at MDI? And how many individual MTs are here complaining? Not the same posters using different names but single persons. Do the math and figure out from that how many are unhappy at MDI, and my bet is your percentage will be low. I know of a lot of MTs very happy at MDI with enough work. But then I'm sure the naysayers will just claim those are the favorites or something.
Report it as a fraud --don't have to pay

If you know that you did NOT withdraw it, why are you paying for it?  report it and the bank will reverse the charges.  


 


 


That's fraud and theft
You need to report it.
okay. I misread it--sm
I thought it said *you have to go to their train to pick up the loaded computer.* my mistake..sorry. had to ask. thanks
You misread this sm
I said 50 companies, not all of them were nationals.

In fairness to myself, I have had two longstanding IC positions. I always work more than one place, eggs all in one basket thing, and I know you understand this, or should. I'd work PT right along side of these long-held situations. I don't suffer fools gladly and I have a low quotient for putting with crap.

I have had recruiters lie to me. This has happened several times only to get in there and find the work stinks, the voice files are bad, I can't get IT help, the platform is unworkable and no help available, the QA person decides that name calling is appropriate, the owner loses the account, the owner decides that my paycheck is larger than hers and nixes my load, they expect me to work 24/7 or be on-call 24/7 or both, and the worst, as we all know, is running out of work.

Last year, I had one job I have had for years and I worked for 5 other places. One hired me and didn't train me. One hired me and I didn't have to be trained, I knew their system, but getting any type of help...well they never answered IM or emails, but if they needed help they were on the phone once in the middle of the night! Two used Bayscribe and that is fine, BUT one of them had her friend QA my work and when she got through it was full of errors and she would change terminology to English words. These counted against me as an MT and I told the manager about it and she blew me off and it continued to happen while I was berated about the quality of my work that had been through QA... The other I never did work for because of a paperwork problem on both our parts.

The last of these five was okay. It paid very well. I stuck this out for 6 long months. The QA staff was absolutely terrible, had had a total of 6 yrs MT between the two of them and didn't have a clue. The work itself was grueling, but I was doing fine with it...until they ran out of work again, and again and again about every 4 or 5 days nothing and I mean not one single job on the system for any of us all day.

In 2006, I didn't work a single PT job at all and in 2005 I didn't either. Those were good years because I had a lot of work and I was happy where I was at.

When you gotta make ends meet and you are raising kids alone you do what you gotta do.
Sorry - misread
I see it said 65 character. Would still do it for part-time work depending on other details of the job.


Fraud, Breech of Contract, etc
Appears there are many legal issues that may apply from ?fraud to ?breech of contract to ?bankrupcy to bouncing checks to not paying. This company appears to be breaking a lot of laws. Who knows what else... Beware for sure.
No illegal? What about fraud applying for job with
x
IMO this is kind of fraud, misleading at least.
But often one can see right through it. MTs are very vulnerable, especially now.
If there are in a thread a lot of negative posts and all of a sudden there jumps somebody in with a 100% positive, praising comment, then this is usually an obvious lie.
copy of fraud resignation
I have a screen shot copy of the fraudulent resignation that the team leader took the initiative to email to me.  I don't have a copy of the original fraudulent resignation email that was sent to the account manager, but I sure wish I had, as I learned through Yahoo Fraud Division the following.  For instance, I email a person, not forwarded, just they receive my original email.  If you go to the very bottom of that email, in the right lower corner, click on Full Headers.  Now go back up to the top of the email and what do you see....You will now see the IP address.  That IP address tells a lot about the sender.  Hmmm, do you think All Type would insist ***** do this since she is the one who received the fraudulent resignation?  Would save a lot of legal headaches.  I think I shall request that, but something tells me I will not receive a response.     
Great post and very true! I read these today and was amazed that someone's first thought was pay
I agree that circumstances can make loans necessary but the OP sounded more like she uses these on a regular basis. No I'll have to learn to budget for the difference, just oh no, now I need to go to Payday Loans and pay 400% interest.

We have the potential to earn what we need to, although sometimes lately it is harder and harder.

Good for all of you. Wish I had seen these earlier.

p.s. Can someone call and tell my BIL to grow up too?
Yet you have never once mentioned who you are a "hiring manager" for. LOL Fraud.

I misread what you wrote and apologize.
My response below was a result of my misunderstanding!

My apologies, MtMommyof2!

You misread reponse previous to last
The lead Editor was not the moody, hard to get along with person. Do not now if she is there now though. Stay away from the owner-bipolar/psycho personality.
You misread. The entire MT industry is a
out of hundreds of thousands. Most people that get hired for job get put to work as soon as possible. The MT industry 'hires' people, then twiddles around with them for weeks. The MT is always the very last one in the pecking order, even though they are the ones who actually do the work that the MTSO gets paid for.
I find that people who call others fraud are jealous.
Many people are jealous that others have made something more. It is the difference in each of us. I am sure if the recruiter who calls herself a hiring manager says she earns $46,000 that she does. I might even know who it is. I know I earn more and guess what?? I know one more recruiter that makes more than I do!

Being a recruiter, I know that you do not go around telling the company you earn that salary for because that is not professional to name the company, but if you think it is not possible, you are wrong. When you have excelled in the industry, it is not only possible, but probable.

If you want to make that kind of money, do something wonderful with your MT work and go for it, but you can't do it if you do not have the people skills or the ability to analyze.
It is in MOST STATES, called THEFT OF SERVICE, FRAUD - nm

I misread that, phew! I couldn't believe the offshore rate was THAT high (yet anyway). nm

I actually thought of that. I even thought of trying to go back to MQ part-time!! (sm)
I just wonder about hours at a second company.  I work days (and some nights) with this company.  I have a set schedule but with the no work situtation I've been on the computer at all hours of the day and night.  Right now I have no work, so I would love to jump on at a company #2 and start working.  Do you have to have set hours at your company #2?  Thanks for the suggestion.
My post should say the post above not the post below, Sheryl's post to be specific. nm

It's a "fishing" post. Same post a few days ago with numerous errors

Peachy, your post is interesting, but my post now is irrelevent but
A few weeks ago I went to my clinic where they had recently implemented EHR or EMR, whichever you call it, and the doctor's back was to me the whole time he and I conversed because his nose was stuck in his laptop. To me, it felt a little more impersonal, but I understand he was doing what he had to do, but it seems like the bedside manner may go to the wayside if the doctors can't even look at you when they are asking you questions or you are speaking to him/her. I know this is relevant to your original post, but just an interesting fact that I had not anticipated. Anyone else experience this?
This is why I NEVER post my cpl. I'll post the range of
what the company pays, but NEVER what I make.  I know that I make more than probably 70% of the people there, because they know I produce a client ready report and that I can do anything they throw at me.   We don't have levels, but I guess if we did I'd be at the highest level.    Telling how much you make isn't so bad, but when people know what company you work for and then what you make that isn't a good combination.  The ONLY people I have ever discussed what I make with, are my husband and my MTSO owner.   Talking about your salary/pay is enough to get your fired in lots of companies.

One post was another "run" type of post and the
the recruiter. Once you are in with the company, the recruiter has nothing to do with you or your job. I want specifics about problems with THE JOB, not the recruiter.  Specifics such as no or late checks, line counts being messed up, no work, taking bennies away with no explanation. Things that matter, not the recruiter. 
A thought. sm
Good points. From what I've heard, managers don't have to handle situations exactly the same way as others might. They follow basic company rules and procedures, but you could get different people running things differently depending on their style, preferences, or client needs. MQ offices are like this, too, from my experience.

Maybe it's not favoritism, or misinformation, or conflicting information, but rather just a choice being made. Then again, if there are vastly different methodologies between managers, to the point that it affects the MTs, maybe that does need to be brought to the attention of a higher authority so it can be worked out to the satisfaction of all involved. The managers may not even be aware that they work so differently! Maybe this is something that MTs can address with the managers involved?
Has anyone thought that.....
the office politics we suffer from national MTSOs is WORSE than the office politics you find in hospital medical records departments?  At least in the hospital you run into people and they can't ignore your communications, whereas with nationals they can not only ignore you but they can deny reality.  I don't fault any MT for NEEDING to work at home, but it's not pain-free, there is a heavier downside than commuting (especially when you add in the inferior benefits: vacation, sick leave, etc.)
I thought they might get better, but...
Sorry, you are having a rough time. Are you new to MT or just new to the company? I have to say they do pay well, but it doesn't matter if you don't get paid for all your lines!!! I like the accounts I am on, don't mind ESL, but QA has gotten really bad, very inconsistent. It is hard to get a hold of anyone if you have a problem, too.
sorry, I thought you said w/o
Sorry, thought you said w/o.
I never thought 40% though.
I thought maybe 20% or 25%, so I was shocked with the 40%, and I would not be so angry had they told us ahead of time.  I think it shows what they think of us not to at least tell us on August 1st, but then that is just my opinion.  Some people let others treat them as door mats and don't have a problem with it.  I do have a problem with it and think I deserve better from any employer.
Have you ever thought about....sm
the fact that usually people post only on the forum (and websites like this) only when there's a problem and not when things are going well?  I and others that I know of on my account aren't having the problems that you're talking about (knock on wood!).  
just a thought

Does anybody else think that medical transcriptionists and migrant farm workers have a lot in common, such as wages, supervisors and working conditions?   I think the MTSOs and the migrant/illegal worker supervisors have very similar character and personality traits as well as  business practices.  I wonder if they get their training in the same places.
