    You can express your opinion without name-calling. Everyone has their own experience. Respect it or don't post here, period.
    Inflammatory remarks? Lets see, stand up for your
    Yep, then guilty of inflammatory remarks made in attemtp to get MTs to see they are only victims if they ALLOW themselves to become victims.  I dont mind when others strike back at me, it shows they at least have the backbone to do that.  Now if that would channel that backbone to do something about the situation they are whining about, they might get somewhere.

    and to put the most inflammatory spin on it...
    It seems that Art Toth looks down at people who don't work for themselves.

    A man who is currently living on money he owes to some of you, looks down on us because we're not getting rich by stealing other people's labor.

    I hope the word spreads among MTs, so that lots of his victims stand behind Scammed at the hearing in July, whether in person or with their stories. The more money turns out to be involved, and the more people he has harmed, the more likely there will be effective action.
    Unkind remarks
    I find it quite disturbing to see unkind remarks on this board.  We are professionals,  should act accordingly, and try to support and help our brother and sister MTs.  Puffing about line counts and insulting others is just plain mean spirited.  Everyone gets something different to deal with.  Can't we be decent here?  Who else but others in our profession would understand the complexities and diverse situations we get thrown into on a daily basis.  Things are not like they were 10 or 15 years ago in this business.  Lets share information, give support, stick together, and be kind. 
    unkind remarks
    I agree with you, Sherry.
    Keep the personal remarks to yourself.
    You are entitled to your opinion, but so am I entitled to mine, and I am always willing to engage in honest debate about any point. I am also willing to agree to disagree. But making personal wisecracks crosses the line, and does not further the discussion.

    As for me being 'untrue,' you don't know the first thing about me, who I am and what I'm made of, so unless you can prove to the world at large that you really DO know me (which you don't), again, keep the personal remarks to yourself.
    Those remarks don't bother me..coming
    to work at OSi.
    come on now...you know what was meant by racist remarks--sm
    let's not get carried away here. save your *giggle* comments for the comedy board. talk about overkill! jees.
    It nice to see some positive remarks about MQ, sm
    I am starting tomorrow and am looking forward to it.
    Your disparaging remarks, oh if only you knew
    Does the remark about lack of education make you feel more important? My husband and I own a business (not transcription) and it serves our needs very well. I am retired over 3 years now, just work parttime so as not to get rusty because I really enjoy transcription- it is not something I have to do now to make a living. Our business taxes and mine are separate. I no longer pay social security and I make an excellent bottom line pay in trancription because I am fast after all the years I have done this. I sponsor several animal rescue places where most of my earned money goes to. I would not feel bad about my lack of education. I have done ok in my life and have reached a time when life is just a bowl of cherries.

    Precyse does give you a computer to use (headphones, speakers, etc), in fact, you are only allowed to use their computer. There is no fee for the computer.


    As far as maternity leave... I've never worked for a company who paid for maternity leave and actually I've never found one who will pay for it. As far as I know its the FMLA or something like that and it is all unpaid.  


    I'm sure there are companies out there that would pay for it, but not very many. This has been my experience working outside of the home too (and not just for transcription).


    Hope that helps.

    They use the 2% error rate as per the AAMT.
    VERY GOOD MTSO! DON'T BELIEVE THE NEGATIVE REMARKS!
    I have had an excellent experience with Nicholas Transcription since signing on with them over two months ago. She pays on a weekly basis and the pay is seldom late. When it is late, it's only one or two days off. I received my first paycheck via DD the second week (on a Friday) after I turned in my first invoice, which is not usual. In fact, most MTSOs pay on a bi-monthly basis -- she pays us weekly!!! I have gotten paid in a timely manner with the exception of only one or two times and both times, she paid me the following Monday or Tuesday and she made me aware of the fact that the DD would be a day or so late. Also, the owner was upfront and honest and made me aware that late payments do happen on occasion prior to my ever signing a contract and I was fine with that -- so long as I get paid, I'm fine with that (AND SHE DOES PAY ME WEEKLY)!

    Also, the owner is extremely flexible, understanding, and extremely very easy to work for. The dictators are great and the work is very consistent.

    I speak from present experience! I work for her now and will continue working for her. Don't believe the negative comments -- they are not true.
    I guess *I* should have edited this one.... by not byt ...nm

    3 CPL on holidays (1.5 edited)
    I like working holidays, usually better work and I can flex my time. No big deal for me.
    QA'ing what has already been edited
    /
    That's right. Back up your claims with facts, not with lunatic remarks.
    Step up to the plate and post in more of a professional manner.  Otherwise, it serves no real purpose.  MTStars was not created for people to come only to post their personal smear campaign.
    Hateful remarks usually arise after someone from the company in question
    and people get sick of it. Sorry, but it's true. Yes, people do get very angry and probably post things they shouldn't but when you see someone on here posting 24/7 and it's obvious where they're from and what they're up to it really starts to grate on your nerves like Chinese water torture.

    Information people gather from this board also includes warnings from former employees of companies about their past experiences and observations and I've used that information many times myself. It's a life-saver.
    No worries. I can understand how her remarks could make you angry. sm

    At least people, men and women, can now take off for that special time.  This is not the same by any means, but I remember working inhouse quite a few years ago and our supervisor had everyone so terrorized and in fear or being off that a woman had her gallbladder out and came back to work the next day!  I hope those days are gone.

    I've never edited, just cut and pasted sm
    I don't know if it prints correctly (or how you'd want to see it), but I think that's standard and as long as the info is there, they get it.  They may even cut and paste that into Word, etc. themselves for a better view?

    Editing VR and seeing other reports that are not edited...

    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. 
    Your own post verifies other post about MTSO not

    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. 
    everytime you post, where ever you post
    unless you go through an anonymizer, your IP address can be traced back to you, even through the guises of this web site.  There are web sites you can find on the internet to do this for you, or if you are 18 years old and like to hack, it's an easy enough thing to do.
    I post a pay range, DOE; however, most don't post..
    I wish some MTs would start thinking about the business aspect of the industry.  For example, this is a public site, so go to Google or another search engine and type [the co's name] and per line, and voila! now everyone knows how much you pay your MTs.
    Post removed, you can re-post.

    Last post
    No, after I read a followup yesterday that said there were apologies and answered Michelle, I realized that and someone said to just get back to work and they were right.. even an apology was too much, plus it would look like I was just tagging along after JMO, which is what you are accusing me of now.

    I just didn't understand where the posts went, it was odd, and I wanted to reiterate some things (the point I mentioned earlier, about seeing BOTH sides), but I see it really doesn't matter WHAT I say, you've already made up your mind about me and my motivations without even knowing me. Why am I explaining myself to you? I dunno.

    It doesn't matter. Good luck to you and don't worry, God will take care of/deal with me, and I ask him to bless you all too.:)
