If they are cutting back, it is most likely because I understand they outsource to India.

Transtech has our backs

Everything's okay at Transtech.  I just talked with my supervisor.  There's plenty of work for everyone.  We'll just shift accounts, that's all.  I for one like to learn something new; it breaks the monotony.  I'm even going to try my hand at eScription on my new account!  Transtech won't let us down.  They truly have our backs. 


That they make off the backs of the MT.
Nobody said it wasn't their money to do what they want with, but it shows how much they value their employees and what the priorities are. They might as well say, Hey, we don't think you deserve a raise, cut in your insurance premiums, or a bonus, but we're going on vacation on the money you made us...oh, and by the way, work extra while we're gone. 
Then we best be watching our backs
and socialism has really been around longer than we think because I was let go from a job in the year in approximately 1962 because of an abortion. That is right. Worked at a children's hospital that was affliated with a bigger hospital, went to the bigger hospital and was fired from the other. So I guess socialism is nothing new, right?
I think they are making a much larger profit on the backs of MTs...
Think about it. Do you think it is costing the clients any less for their transcription. How would they even know it was VR? If the MTSO charges the same, they are making more money (half of what they used to pay the MT).
Fortunately, I haven't had any problems getting call-backs...sm
I have been in contact with 3 companies within the last 6 weeks. I do have 18+ years experience, but just needed to find the right fit. There are good jobs to be gotten so don't give up.

Good luck!
While we pound our brains out until our backs ache and our wrists crack and pop
The trend toward more and more hospitals hiring for work-at-home MTs is helping and if they'd all go that route it would solve the problem.
