    I agree wholeheartedly. The owner is not a timid person and has
    and even though I don't work for her, I'd stand up for her any day of the week. If the original poster has an ax to grind, it certainly doesn't make him/her come across as a _professional_ by making a slanderous remark and then acting like a juvenile. It is certainly the owner's right to conduct business in a manner that is best for the company and changing one's mind about who to do business with is her right in order serve her company, clients and employees best interests.
    I agree! I talked to the owner and another manager and it was not bad terms. sm
    Not that it is anyone's business, but they have only nice things to say about her. If you ask if she was fired, Lee said that it was mutual and that she wishes the ex-recruiter well. I think it was unexpected and happened fast and then they both changed their minds, but who knows? M was a very nice person but I think she was too soft to be a recruiter. It's a tough job that I would never want. I doubt if it pays well either.
    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!
    I smell a foreign spy. You need to...
    Leave the board before I report you to Customs and Immigration. LOL.
    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.
    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.
    Webmedx is NOT offshore, nor foreign owned. 100% US. nm

    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.
    I had the WORST foreign doc cardiac caths there! I only stayed a week. nm

    The *American* AAMT now giving memberships/CMTs to foreign MTs....
    Shouldn't they at least change the name to UN-AMT or something like that! lol
    The email said the owner as she is the owner of the email software package. sm
    We got the list from AHDI. If someone does not wish to be on our email list, there is a link to click on at the bottom of those for opting out. We immediately remove those that click the link.

    We also have a few mailling going out. Same thing - if you opt out of the email program, we will remove you from all contact.

    We need transcriptionists for many new accounts and have ads on here and other sites, as well as several magazines. We are going to need over 100 MTs in the next 3 months due to new accounts and more work on existing accounts!
    Hmm, wonder what the owner will say
    no flame, but I would not tolerate that kind of off loading in a public forum from someone on my management team. Please remember I was responding to horn tooting that was short on information and left an impression that huh, I could do better elsewhere in addition to feeling insulted at the lack of decent benefits. There was no mention of UC contribution, STD or LTD, employer paying part of the health insurance premiums.

    I said what I said mostly to make the point. If you want to sell me, do a good job the first time or you sink yourself and I won't look at you twice. There was little in the original post to sway me in your favor and the Jeckle/Hyde posting afterwards warns me of good day/bad day tangents.

    As I said, best of luck to your company.
    Are you the owner of
    Why not just post the email address of the 'administrator'. Are you just trying to draw traffic to your forums and away from the forums here.

    Seems to me, if you are really seeking MTs you'd just post like the other companies do on the Job board.
    it USED to mean owner (sm)
    back when most MT services were little and there was a real owner. Now that there are so many huge multinationals with no owner to take personal responsibility for the service, it's sort of transmogrified to mean organization, but that's redundant.

    Just take it as meaning a service. Once again, AAMT, worthless as ever, ruins the language.
    no changes that i know of. Same owner.
    x
    and this is the new owner
    My god you people are so gullable.  That picture could have come from anyones kitchen!!!
    How do you know? Are you the owner?

    They are obviously losing something if there's no work.  Have you been with them since they started or something?  Do you know of every account MDI has or what?  How can you make a blanket statement like that?


    I can't believe people sit frustrated about no work and don't move on; that's just plain silly.  There are tons of companies hiring; get on with it already!  Come on show your stuff to a company that will appreciate you and not OVERHIRE!


    Owner? sm
    I thought someone named Tracy owned Net-Med? 
    Should be owner's...sorry. nm

    A few posts on here say the owner is a mean one. nm

    Owner is snarky.

    As the owner of Omniscribe.... sm
    I would like to come here and say that I have no idea who this individual is. She/he has never worked for me and my paychecks have NEVER been late. A company who does not pay their MTs would go under in no time flat and I am still going. Omniscribe is a very small company and I can count on one hand the number of MTs who have left here. Not one of them would come to a public forum to bash me or my company, so I'd be very curious to know who you are. I'm certain you have me and my company confused with some other place.
    Oh, okay. I thought it was okay because the owner

    people are saying DEROGATORY things about her.  I was saying GOOD things and mine was deleted.


    Is this really the owner of a company
    Wow! You are soooooooooo ghetto and ignorant. I am speechless!
    As a business owner
    I have had people give notice and then NOT work their full shifts because they were leaving. Contracts can stipulate that you can be deducted pay for not fulfilling your contract.

    Anyway, there are other methods to collect funds owed, if they are due.

    I just do not feel that public character assassination is an appropriate manner to do so.

    Walk a mile in my shoes!
    You said you spoke to the owner.
    You are not credible.
    owner, not organization.
     
    Remember the Owner
    I remember reading another board a few years back....maybe quite a few years...and I remember distinctly J. Weight's name. I know she was one of the most argumentative and flaming people out there. Stay away.
    Why would you talk to owner?
    Perhaps she is an account lead. That, or a buttkisser.
    Why I spoke with the owner - sm
    SHE called me, SHE hired me, SHE promised me a job at a certain rate, SHE gave me all kinds of excuses why the job never materialized and then I never heard from anyone again. Enough said.
    I also spoke with the owner for the same
    exact reasons. She called me, she hired me, she emailed me daily, she offered me account after account, which never materialized while I did crap work just waiting for her promises to be kept. Guess what? They never were!
    Owner of a company
    I agree with you. I would not want the responsility of owning a company or even managing. My dad was in management for 28 years. You are not there to make everyone happy and sometimes people have to be let go. If you cannot keep your end of the deal I would make you move on. Actually I would be a real hard a-- if I were a manager. A lot of it has to do with respect for each other. You need to appreciate what you have. Too many times these days everyone just wants a pay check regardless of anything else. Some people do not take pride in their work or anything else. Every thing is not hunky dorry every single day, either on our side or a manager/company owner's side. It is just not realistic.
    The owner will encourage you to
    talk to her current staff, etc., but that is definitely biased.  An anonymous board like this is is a safer.  
    and........ the owner of this company
    is subcontracting work out for Medware. Medware and herself are one in the same.
    ....starting with the owner! lol
    x
    Use full name of owner. nm
     
    The owner does at least read here..
    I had posted here complaining ile back that I couldn't get ahold of the recruiter who offered me a position and the owner of the company sent me a personal email to get in touch with her as they were moving offices and the recruiter was off part of that week.
    You have got to be kidding. KS is a little too big for the owner to sm
    bother coming in here and posting under other names. I used to see her name on posts, but it was years ago. I think they are very big now, and she probably has more important things to do than post on a board, much less use different names. There are over 300 MTs at Keystrokes. I would bet that only a handful post, but the positives are definitely from actual MTs. Wow. I am amazed at the things that people come up with. If there were not positives, they would not have employees. I have been there for 5 years, and so have most of the other KS MTs that I have gotten to know over the years.
