    I smell a rat!!!
    I mean seriously, when was the last time, and how many times, have any of us been offered .11 cpl to start with that kind of bonus. It's few and far in between so you know when one does get posted, they have to be flooded with resumes.  So, if you have 200 people each doing 4 tests...hmmm...sounds like good free labor to me. LOL
    FOREIGN MT

    YOU ARE MISSING THE POINT.  FOREIGN OR NOT, THESE PEOPLE DESERVE THE RIGHT TO LEARN AND PRODUCE AND MAKE A LIVING.  WE ARE TO POMPOUS AS INDIVIDUALS IN THIS BUSINESS. ONLY AMERICANS CAN PRODUCE QUALITY, BOLOGNA.  I AM A QA SWAT TEAM MEMBER OF A LARGE SERVICE AND WE HAVE QUITE A BIT OF OFFSHORE WORK DONE, THE QUALITY IS BETTER THAN MOST AMERICAN MTs.  YES THEY ARE NOT PRIVY TO AMERICAN SLANG AND TO THEM THE LANGUAGE A LANGUAGE, MUCH LIKE AN ESL DOCTOR TO US, SO DOES THAT MEAN WE DON'T TRANSCRIBE, SWEAT AND MANY TIMES LEAVE BLANKS ALL OVER THE PLACE.  WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL WITH OUR ATTITUDES ABOUT THESE FOLKS.  YES THEY MAKE MISTAKES, BUT THEY ARE THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE OF OUR TRADE.  THE MORE HOSPITALS, CLINICS, ETC WANT COMPETITIVE CHARGES, THE MORE YOU WILL USE INDIANS, CHINESE, KOREANS, ETC TO APPLY THIS TRADE.


    I CAN SPEAK AFTER 20+ YEARS.

    Not foreign company
    I work for Globespan Medical, Inc and it is not a foreign company as you are thinking. They are based out of California and do not outsource, so not sure what you are seeing and where that they are foreign.
    not foreign either but can't get to the site. nm

    Foreign Company
    You don't want to work for a foreign company why? I'm sure that you purchase items from foreign companies. Everything is going overseas because it is cheaper. Focus is a great company to work for. I've been there for 1 year and haven't had any issues with them. Just because they are foreign doesn't make them a bad company.
    Once foreign owned, always foreign owned.

    Let us know when you accomplish that with foreign MTs.
    I'm curious as to how long it takes.
    So now we have to put up with this foreign garbage.... sm
    undercutting us and taking our work with such poor grammar? You've got to be kidding. This is ridiculous.

    If you click on that job listing, at the bottom of the page is a moderator link. Click on that and it will bring up all the moderators e-mails. Let's all e-mail them with thumbs down and get these messages removed.

    Red angry smiley face to these moderators and definite thumbs down.
    This is a foreign company.
    This will offshore all they can. The American MT is the bottom feeder here. Beware!
    If you look up the foreign name and the web address

    it's associated with /transindiatranscribers.  If you're concerned about offshoring, might want to give this one a miss.


     


     


    No, not foreign sounding
    Try ebonics.
    what's that foul smell? Ahh RECRUITER

    I don't think they type at all... I smell management.

    I smell management and, guess what?

    We see right through what YOU are going too!  :)


    Now, go away.  Please. 


    a rose by any other name would smell as sweet

    And an MT is now a *clerk,* according to the posting on the job board.  I'd like to apply for Head Cluck when it becomes available.  Then you've got your Lead Cluck, and your Editor Cluck, QA Cluck, Cluck Manager, VP of Cluckdom, Supercluck, CEC and CFC (Chief Executive Cluck, and Chief Financial Cluck) and we all work for Clucks-R-Us. 


    Sure it does. It's a myth that foreign cars are better. sm

    Does anyone keep jap cars long enough to find out?    We have American vehicles ranging from 2001 back to 1960.  Still running.  It started in the 70s when the factories started closing as goods were being made in Japan, and continued on.   Now it's China and India gobbling up our jobs. 


    If the new owners allow foreign posts,
    at the top of the JobSeekers page.  It's the second listing on it.  It very clearly states no MTs outside of the US.  I realize it dates pre-new owners, but they should remove that if they are going to allow such postings.
    Oh, I agree, but the owner is foreign, so
    xx
    I smell sour grapes. This is a lie. They do not oursource
    I've been an at-home MT since 1990, and was in-house for 12 years before that.

    Amphion is the BEST, MOST PROFESSIONAL, and FAIR company I've ever worked for.

    Whoever is trying to make them look bad on here is lying, and I suspect it's one of the people from "another company" that DOES SUCK trying to bring down an honest reputable company because they're jealous that they don't have the character and professionalism that Amphion has.
    i smell someone doggin for a referral ... not nice!
    I work for them too, and albeit, a good company but not a bed of roses.  TONS of changes seem to be going on all the time ......... stop sniffin around for that 750 bucks. It's embarrassing.
    Wake up and smell the coffee - dahhhhhh - NM

    NM


    I don't agree - you need to smell entire coffee pot

    You don't know most men in this country...that would be a fact.....and in today's world, some of us prefer the foreign men, after decades of American ones.  It takes all kinds to make up an entire world and then an entire planet.


    Live Globally, Dream Universally.....


    You smell things? Give me a break! You
    are really reading way too much into a simple post. I am in QA, and I do not work for the range I quoted. However, I know that many companies are now offering peanuts in the ranges I quoted, or lower with paying by the line. My friends are QA, and keep me updated with the insulting range of pay offers. Sorry, not an exec and not looking to lower anyone's anything! Stress out much?
    Digital Transcription Services--I smell a rat??

    I went ahead and applied for their little ortho job over there and was sent 6 test files, about 20+ minutes of dictation time total.  I said I would only do one file, but did anyone else get this?  I worry when i get things like this as a lot of people will use the testing to get the work done for free.


    Thanks


    What you smell is the own vindictive stink of your words.
    No, I'm not GP.  Just don't like bullies.  Never did.  Never will.  Which is what you are.  Now, behave or I'll tell your mommie!

    True. It was demeaning and insulting. Tell me you didn't like my resume or that I smell bad..
    Whatever... but don't tell me that I do not have experience.  What is with these people. If they are that unprofessional, we would feel blessed we received the kiss-off form letter LOL
    And stop buying foreign cars for crying out loud. sm
    Look at the 10s of thousands of workers who are being laid off from GM and Ford after giving decades of their lives.  Thanks to all you people who buy foreign cars.
