    I heard they have lawsuits against them
    from past employees. From what I heard the owner pasted on emails to fellow co-workers regarding the work of one MT. She filed a lawsuit claiming unfair labor practices and the improper use of confidential/personal information ....I would stay away too!
    I think the lawsuits are what they think could happen
    not what has happened. VR editors such as myself are held to high standards just as straight transcriptionists. We have worked pulled every 3 months to check and get graded. We do not let reports just go through without corrections. This is what could happen according to people who think VR is a crock.
    I guess that is the stuff lawsuits are made of, but nothing you can do to fix it. sm
    I am not unsympathetic.  I just do not think there is anything any of us can to to stop this.  I am no fan of EMR, but I refuse to get my stomach all in knots over things I cannot change.
    Lawsuits? YOU are responsible for final product, sm
    VR doesn't claim to put out a perfect product and never will.
    In the particular case of MQ and the pending lawsuits, this poster just really mirrors
    the frequent posts from back around Christmas of 2004 - they were the lawyers looking for inside info on MQ, payroll practices, handling raises, etc. just like this poster. They also used the incorrect terms for employees - calling MQ MTs MLS, which we all know is Transcend's fave term for us, NEVER MQ. I would answer their MQ questions as best I could, and then get a personal email from them "confessing" they were lawyers (supposedly) and that was how they were trying to get poop on MQ, as it was ILLEGAL to contact us at that time, as they had not received permission from the courts yet for discovery, etc. Also some were just from other lawyers around the country, nosing in to make a buck or 2.  The original poster completely stopped posting, and I still believe 100% that it was NOT a MQ employee. Anyone who was a real employee would know what their job title currently was - that is guaranteed, no matter how many times the title may have changed.  They tried "editor", which does not exist, and then changed it to "proofer", which has not existed for years and years now.  All they had to do was answer with anything more detailed, and I would have been glad to help.  I wasn't NOT friendly. I just expressed my thoughts on their odd post.
    All I would be interested in transcribing is pleadings, drawing up lawsuits sm
    interrogatories, etc., not court reporting. 
    Still laughing....
    at 'are they flexible' and 'sit for 8 hours day'. Oh my!
    Laughing here
    You said I would love to QA you stuff myself. I just love it. You probably just need to stick with whatever else you are trying to do.
    cant stop laughing

    I am laughing here as I cannot take a test
    I want to use my pedal but.........this is crazy.... never mind the test is too ridiculous!
    I am laughing so hard here...
    Don't let someone make money off of our sweat and tears, when we could be making that money ourselves.  TTD can go fly a kite for sure! 
    Where DID you come from? You have me laughing myself silly!
    Love the comparison with MQ and MDI-MD...
    Not even close - laughing
    I am just one who has been trying to offer 'food for thought' posts, that's all.


    I'm sorry, laughing so hard
    I can't type this.
    I can't stop laughing! Nice one! nm

    I'm crying over here laughing so hard
    no message so you don't have to bother looking inside the post. I thought same thing when I first got here...thought boy is this NM lady annoying. LOL!
    Rolling on the floor laughing .... nm

    Done psych and almost died laughing
    at the reports we would get. It was adult/adolescent drug and psych wards. I loved it, thought easy and not boring. Remember the time the man kept complaining about his neck hurting. Went to 1 doctor after the other, no help, no one listening. He finally had enough and got a noose, got a chair and decided to hang himself and end it all. He jumped off, popped his neck and guess what, sorta like a chiropracter, solved his problem and he was a happy man. Just 1 of the many.
    when you are finished laughing, pls read

    I strongly disagree with you.  To say all MTs are highly skilled is to demean the whole group.  There are roughly -- very roughly -- two categories of MTs.  There are those who do it because they can stay home and breed their chihuahas and herd their babies. Then there are those who absolutely love the field of medicine and work for that reason.  I began in-house and never dreamed that I would eventually work from home. The MTs who are willing to research Hiszysrinksigo's syndrome instead of blanking it SHOULD be paid more per line than the puppie brokers.


     


     


    I am laughing at there is always work on second and third shifts. If you say so.
    Go on with the bashing. Im prepared.
    If I could only figure it out...stop laughing...LOL
    xx
    I don't see ONE single post where anyone is laughing at the SM
    MT who is owed the money. NOT ONE. We are laughing at the so-called friend who comes on here insulting and bashing anyone who *dares* to ask a question about the situation and who stoops as low as to insult people about anything from their screen name (which is really mature) or saying they are in a 12-step program or calling people insecure just because of their screen name. THAT is what we are laughing at. I would think that was quite obvious...
    Fell off my chair laughing so much at that!
    Thanks for the laughter. Hahahahahahaha....
    While you are laughing, that might not be a good thing because
    I thought I was reading up at the top of this that the pay for VR at TT was 3.5 which is even less than what this person is making. I think at 3.5 or less folks are really going to be unhappy.
    Losing ANY job is no laughing matter
    .
    sick and on treatment and they were laughing?
    honestly, one day these people will get their due.. unreal that people can laugh at someone's misfortune, an employee no less. Tacky and sad.
    CrankyBeach, how can I be laughing even as my BP rises?
    I've of course had the insurance company experience with an illness of our own, so your too-vibrant description of doing it all day has my stress level leaping even as I relax waiting for my smothered chicken to finish. Never on this earth. Maybe in the afterlife if I'm very bad.
    Hey, stewed, laughing as I read this one
    A gourdboard, who would have thought that 1 up!!
    Rolling on floor laughing my butt off.
