Still waiting for your response Georgie Poo

In Reply to: I visited the site as - you suggested

Let's hear it girlfriend. What gives? Maybe MTReviews.org doesn't even have any clients. Kinda hard to hire MTs when there are no clients. Or, do you expect us to send a resume as well as find you the client? Hmmmmmmmmm.

Some of us on this site have been around the block more than a few times.

    I sent them my resume 3 years ago and am still waiting for a response!

    Yes, I did e-mail Lee. Im still waiting for a final response. nm

    Georgie, how soon are you looking
    I need a job that I can start immediately. I am an IC for a company that hasn't had work for me since the first week in December and need a job ASAP.
    I hope you're right. I've been waiting 4 wks for an ID - still waiting! nm

    Hear/Here Georgie
    Not to worry. I had one the other day, just typed what he said giver 50 mg. Even proofed it myself and did not catch it. lol
    GEORGIE GIRL...
    I do clinic notes too. Just curious how long you've been with your current company and how much experience you have? I'm getting ready to post mine. Thanks!
    Sorry, but I completely agree with Georgie.
    And to you, pot/kettle. You tell her not to be rude & then proceed to call her a NASTY MISERABLE person... Oh the irony.
    What's wrong with Georgie's posts? Seems EmmaMT was

    I work Sun-Thurs and Georgie needs social skills

    I changed from Tues-Sat 1st shift to Sun-Thurs 3rd shift because I start Sunday evening and I am done with my shift on Fridays at 7:00 a.m.  I have all day Saturday and Sunday to spend with my family.


    Georgie, you are just a NASTY person.  There is no reason to be so rude and condescending to others.  I think you need to take some classes on social skills or get some counseling because you seem to be a pretty MISERABLE person.


    You are doing better than I am. Still waiting...
    ...on the paycheck. Maybe those 100% gals get the debit cards, and those idjits, like me, who mess up a comma, don't get a debit cardiac?

    (Kidding, kidding, antcipating my debit card with high excitement.)
    Still waiting on MQ
    not getting my hopes up, of course.  Happy MT Week!
    Still waiting...
    I'm still waiting for mine
    Anyone else still waiting for W-2 from DSG?
    They said they were sending it out this week.  Sure seems SLOW this year. 
    What are you waiting for? Get out now! nm

    I'm still waiting.............SM
    for someone to reveal how they know that the account has been lost.  There appears to be at least one individual who enjoys starting rumors of QT's demise on this board, and we have survived these rumors before.  If anyone feels they know the truth and can tell me how they know it, please divulge on this board or e-mail me.  I'm not leaving my job based on what appears to most of us to be pure rumor, at least to the majority of employees.  If anyone feels they know the truth and can tell me how they know it, please divulge on this board or e-mail me.  Thanks.
    You will be waiting until the 15. They
    do not process your check the day you send in your time sheet.
    waiting...
    It would be considerate of them to at least let us know what is going on. They have not said one word about going to VR with any of the accounts. I have been with them for years and it's very unprofessional of them to ignore us and expect us to just sit back and wait until they have work for us to do. Yes it is a slow time of year, but FN has been slow across the boards for the last 8-10 months now, even with picking up new accounts. How does that make sense?
    waiting
    Why wait that long...would email or call, things get lost and forgotten especially this time of year, at least you would know instead of waiting and wondering...
    Waiting here too
    impatiently, I might add (LOL) . . . just my personality. I wonder how long it will take to hear back. I know she is busy, but hopefully we'll know soon since she is looking to hire quickly.

    I had some trouble with #1 also.
    I'm not waiting around for them to get their act together sm
    My bills won't wait until they get another account or whatever it is they are planning on doing. My bills aren't tolerating this cut in salary, either. I have to think of me and my family. I have juggled everything as much as I can juggle it and now I am making the decision to get out. I can't stand doing 12 hour days for a bare minimum paycheck.
    Also waiting
    Yes, I also thought it has been strangely quiet. The first week after the announcement, there were e-mails asking for our input and questions, and now nothing. I hope the early signs of willingness to work with us and keep things that are working don't just die on the vine.
    waiting for work

    For anybody that has worked with transform..............Have you have experienced this. I have been waiting for work to be asigned to me for four hours. Yes, they asign work to you......................I have been with this company for two weeks. I made a mistake, I put the wrong date of service on a report...............................So I am wondering if this is the reason why my e-mail has not been answered, nor my phone calls, nor AOL messenger.  I have not made mistakes with medical words, at least that I know (although I have not gottent a lot of feedback). I have been transcribing in this particular speciality for 7 years, so I don't think I made huge mistakes.


    Have anybody experienced this?


    I'm waiting for them to take the spaces
    xx
    Waiting for mine too. sm
    Not to scare you, but it took 6 weeks to get my first one. I was shorted on both checks too. Were we supposed to get paid the 15th? They are always late so I do not know.
    I have been waiting all night for - sm
    someone to say that. I feel better already!
    WAITING FOR WORK!!!

    In your response to FutureNet.  I am currently working for them. It is a good company, easy platform, great people, but I am waiting for work as I type.  I think they have over-hired, we are now caught up and out of work.  Doesn't pay the bills!


    Soon to be in the poor house


    Waiting for work
    Do you have other accounts with FN? I have four and if work is REALLY low I wait and do work for the other service I am employed with. We have several new accounts coming on and some of them are still in the testing stage. But it is also that time of the year.
    Waiting for work
    I also have 4 different accounts that I can work on, so running out of work doesn't happen very often for me. 
    I think it's a yes to all. I use ShortHand. Waiting to be set up for the
    s
    Thanks! I'm waiting for W2s from Precyse and MQ, as well. nm

    Waiting to see what rates are!
    Wow, $400 a month is higher than I'm paying now and I thought it was high! I currently pay $340 a month for family but the coverage is very good. I did hear that they have a new rate plan coming in. I will wait to see what I hear from this change. I have to have good insurance. My husband does have some health issues.

    One last question....can someone tell me how soon insurance starts when you hire on with Keystrokes? Do you have to wait 3 or 6 months or does it go in effect on Day 1? My current job insurance went into effect Day 1. But they are outsourcing some to India starting this month and I'm afraid we may all be out of jobs soon. Doesn't look good. I may check into the plan to just purchase myself and not have to worry about changing jobs, etc.

    Thanks for all your replies, I appreciate it.

    Waiting for Future-Net

    About a week ago I received an email from Future-Net stating I had passed all the testing and a recruiter would be contacting me....I am still waiting a week later.  Is this normal for them?


    TIA


    still waiting on my paycheck
    this company is a joke
    still waiting on my check from TTS
    @#$%&
    Still waiting for an answer.
    I did all my testing and had my phone interview with the recruiter and Jean but have not heard anything back.  Last communication was on Monday.  They seemed really intrigued as I said I would work 6 hours on Monday and Friday and 4 or more on Saturday and Sunday.  Should I call them or just keep waiting?  I have lots of experience with ESL's and currently work in an acute setting.  Seemed like everything they wanted to hear.  How long does the hiring process normally take? Thanks in advance.
    still waiting for computer to come
    here.  Just trying to get some understanding of platform before starting. 
    Patiently Waiting...
    I can tell you that I have applied with nearly 30 places--and I'm starting to regret it!!

    I researched each and every company before I applied, so I'm sure that I applied for great companies. But now I'm being bombarded with requests to test and emails and phone calls.

    I've had several offers, most of them very promising, so it will be fairly hard to decided.

    The downside is that there are still about 15+ companies who stated on their website that it can take a week or two to get that first contact from a recruiter. So if I accept one of these job offers in the next few days, I think I'm still going to be getting bombarded with phone calls and emails and testing requests.

    Of course, I'm not complaining in a bad way!! I'd rather have it this way than no phone calls at all. My first response came within 24 hours and I even received a response today from an application that I put in on Monday of this week.

    I don't know if any of this answers your questions, but I hope it at least helps you a little...
    I'm still waiting on work
    this morning but haven't had anything come up for over an hour.
    Yes, I did. I was waiting to hear from...
    MQ, but so far no word from them. USAMedTran got back to me first, so I accepted the job. They told me I would only need a foot pedal and Microsoft Word. From what I have read, this company is pretty known for hiring newbies or MTs with minimal experience. This is why I applied there. Money is not my biggest priority right now - I am 22-years-old and live at home. I do need any experience I can get though, so I'm hoping this will go okay. If you want to get in touch with me at any time, my email is ericj1985@gmail.com
    Do you all believe there is actually a waiting list...sm
    to work for this company (if you can even call it that)? I wonder if they pay through PayPal because of the ease of having payments reversed or chargebacks like on eBay. Anyone who has ever sold on ebay knows PayPal has high fees. The MTSO may have more control with PayPal. Does that make sense?
    You've been waiting since May?
    I think someone needs to get a clue....
    I'm on 40+ hrs, but 15-20 waiting for some work. nm

    How about WAITING UNTIL THE CALL? sm
    Before JUMPING to conclusions?? Holy cow. Unreal. I think it is to announce how well we are doing and talk about all the new work we have.
    I am just waiting for my hospital IDs sm
    and I can start. Everything else already cleared and I can't wait!!!!!!
    Waiting for work

    I guess it is just the same with all these companies, but it can be so irritating when your supervisor gives you the morning update on minutes and is thrilled that all accounts are empty and says how great it is.  Why do they not understand how distressing this is to the MT? 


    Just sitting her twiddling my thumbs waiting......


    waiting for work (sm)
    I'm getting fed up with it too.  I think they have way overhired, and I'm thinking it may be time to move on.  Sick of spending 12 hours on my computer waiting for 7 hours of work.
    Everyone waiting for work must consider

    The number 1 reason for unemployment compensation is LACK OF WORK, and that income is only going to be about 50% of your greatest income in 3 of the last 5 quarters (check with your state).  Yes, I certainly do believe each and every single one of them should be reported for this.  Someone needs to put a stop to it!!  However, you must consider that once you confront your employer about this, it will likely get you laid off.  They really have no choice when you **go legal** on them.  It happened to me.  I figured it would, but I was so tired of clocking in and out, in and out, waiting for work from 6:30 in the morning until after 9 or 10 at night.  Sometimes I still would not meet the minimum requirement.  I refused to use my PTO.  My income was sinking.  After about 6 months, I said no more, give me work or let me go.  I knew I had a much greater earning potential and they were going to continue to offshore more and more.  When I told my supervisor I wanted a third party involvement I was laid off.  What these companies are doing is truly a crime and thus gives them the name SWEAT SHOP.  If you are in the position, please report them, even if you not work there anymore.


    I am waiting until 1 August
    and if it is still this low, I am asking for another account.
    And then there's the waiting for work, sm
    software installs, doing timesheet(s), checking old reports, etc.
    waiting for the call
    I was just telling my husband a couple of days ago it seems like maybe HR is waiting until the very end of the year to tell us what our new rate and schedule will be so there is no time to look for a new job before the new year. Not a word about the merger in a few weeks, not a peep from HR.
    Exactly! I spend more time waiting for
    work than I do actually typing! Such a joke!
