Thank you very much. This is a prime example .....sm

 of how one must take all comments into consideration when searching for information on this board.  I had a feeling that those posters may have been referring to another company with the same name and decided to wait and see if someone else would post.


Thanks


Re above. Sorry to offended MT, but OP is prime

Kitty, let me use HappyMTRobin as a prime example....
We're not all nasty and bordering on psychotic, such as the woman who forwarded your emails to the recruiter (sounds like somebody thrives on drama to stoop that low!).

I'm going to use HappyMTRobin as my example of what most posters are like on this board. HappyMTRobin posts here very frequently. Her posts are kind, thoughtful and considerate. She's one of the first ones to respond if a fellow MT has a problem with something in which she has knowledge. If I thought she could enlighten me in an area, I'd email her in a heartbeat because of her helpful, considerate nature. No, I don't know her in real life, but her posts speak volume for her character.

I think most of us on MTStars are like Robin, NOT like the psychos or shrews you've encountered. The posts from those types of people simply overshadow the kind and helpful posts because they're intended to be hurtful and stand out from the other posts.

I personally am tired of reading the lame excuses made for these types of posters (i.e., not happy with their job, can't find a job, under stress because of the economy). I believe you're either a happy, caring person by nature or you're not, and no happy or caring person would post the hateful things I've encountered on here. I choose to ignore them and not engage the obviously miserable individual involved, as I've found the helpful people really do far outnumber the wackos.

I hope you do hang around, Kitty. This is what this board needs, more people genuinely interested in helping one another to counteract the negativity that is sometimes rampant on these boards.


You are a prime example of people spewing hostility....
Yeah, precisely THIS type of post, clear out of left field with no provocation. There was NOTHING hateful about HER post. She was expressing her opinion. You're aware of what an opinion is, right? Then you get your panties all in a bunch, push up your sleeves, and decide to set HER straight. Something tells me you spend LOTS of time at your computer, and not just for work purposes, lol!

Geez, talk about ironic...But thanks for illustrating her point perfectly, hahahahaha.
How is it possible that I could land a job..sm

right after finishing my MT school, but now that I have more experience and have worked in-house, I can't?  I am getting so frustrated right now.  If I don't land a job soon, we will go into foreclosure on our house.  I have applied to over 25 companies, and I am still applying and testing.


Okay, I just needed to vent for a minute.


Can I come join you in La La Land?
Your dreamin.
How'd you land that interview?
Did you work for the company already? I'd love to be a trainer or tech person for an MTSO. I'm very qualified, but I'm stuck typing boring reports. As for hourly wage, I'm not sure what the going rate is for trainer in the MT world. I make $30 an hour teaching adult ed and online classes, but I don't have enough classes to replace my MT income. Plus, there's so much work outside of the classroom, grading papers, lesson plans and reading that it's really NOT $30 an hour.
Fantasy Land

Can you find the MTSO posts? 


OT can be collected retroactively through Dept of Labor if you kept records. 


You are one of hundreds.  Follow up on it.


Agree. Got any swamp land to sell her? nm

Well, I don't know if I'd call India a "terrorist land."
And why are you calling yourself spectator? Enjoying the sport, are you?
Oh to live in that nice little fairy land :)
Yep, that is why I got into this business. I have my days (like when I started this whole mess the other night) when I feel so down about how hard this business is, but I obviously have it in my bones because I've tried going outside the home a few times over the years and always end up coming back. It definitely has major ups and downs, but all in all, there really isn't a better way to work and be there for your children (at least somewhat). Praise the Lord they aren't coming home to an empty house every afternoon or being alone all summer. Most days I'm able to appreciate my life and be thankful for this job/line of work - but there are days I just want to scream. I do think this industry takes major advantage of us and find it getting worse and worse each year, but I am grateful for not having to deal with traffic; getting to wear comfy clothes to work; and have the flexibity to take my kids to school, pick them up, and go to their school functions.

:) Happy typing!
MTSOs are going into la-la land, losing the grip on reality!...nm

Consider yourself a free bird and move on. Lots of stories like this out here in MT land. nm

Sale?
What sale?
i mean FOR sale
-

why do you think it's for sale, and what are you asking them,
nm
Hmm, WM has a lap top on sale right now
for only 400 bux. I just wonder if you can use a different keyboard and how cumbersome (or not) it would be to do that. I don't think I'd be able to type fast on a lap top keyboard
Rumor is they are up for sale

but I have not heard anything more about that.


If MQ were for sale it wouldn't ....sm
necessarily be a negative thing for the MQ employees regardless of who a new owner might be (same goes true for any company being sold regardless of the industry).
MTSO's for sale
Does anyone know of any MTSO's for sale?
companies for sale
What in the world are you talking about.  I am not from MQ.  I opporate a small company out of Michigan. 
Keystrokes is for sale? sm

I was just heard from my boss that Keystrokes is for sale for $30 million.  He was looking at them but thinks that Spheris will be the ones who will actually buy them. 


I know that they are in the U.S.A. only.  What will happen once Spheris buys them?  Why Spheris and not MQ?

just before someone jumps on that one

Heartland - Status of Sale

Heartland is such a horrible company, it has been announced that SPI has backed out of purchasing them for good!


Almost all in-house employees are gone, majority of my MT friends left! I don't think they will survive with all these employees gone.


I'll be sure to pass that along to the sale guy.
Ever feel like no one in the transcription industry really knows to things work other than the MTs?
Just remember.....everything/anything is for sale for the right price sm
No matter what, everything and anything has a price tag. Good luck to all KS MTs.
I mean the owner on the sale. The only winner here. nm
,
VR is example of great sale pitch, not way of
one angle the sales person is using.
Does anyone know of any large billing agencies that are for sale?
If you are aware of a large ($1million + annual revenue) medical billing/transcription agency/company that is for sale.  Please reply here or email me.
I am sure she was legally bound not to say anything about the sale until it was complete. That is s
business by the person who owns the business and the person who is purchasing it. She built her business, paid people for the work they did (does not owe anyone more than that), sold it and moved on. Why is it so hard for anyone to understand and why make it personal?
Haven't heard a thing about a sale.
Not a thing.
Hired company, but sale did not take place, right ? n/m
n
is eMTS out of Coral Springs for sale?

I am thankful that lightbulbs were on sale last week. nm
nm
I received an email from someone about Keystrokes being for sale - it is lie. sm

Yes, the owners met with the CEO of Transcend and went to dinner but it was 2 years and it was NETWORKING.  They had no intentions of selling to them and when they informed them of that, Transcend stopped coming around.  I work in the office.  Get your facts straight.


Watch out, this company is probably up for sale to Transcend.
Usual warning signs - lots of mls, low work.
I have a bridge to sale you? I guess its karma...

"Was" is the keyword here! Up until the sale, they've been GREAT! nm
.
Keystrokes is not for sale at this time, and there are no plans for selling in the foreseeable futu
This is a rumor started by someone for absolutely no reason. There are a few companies out there who have approached Keystrokes about selling and have been turned down. A few have been very agressive and do not like to hear the word no.

The company has been growing steadily for the past 10 years and has agressive growth plans in place for the next 5 years.

If you have any questions, contact one of the owners or member of the management team directly. They will answer your questions.

This is just another example of someone trying to stir the pot.

Not every company is for sale, at any price. Although that may change in the future for the owners of Keystrokes, right now they enjoy growing the company and improving on what they have built. It will be several years before the idea of selling would be entertained.
