Things AREN'T so rosy, I meant and pardon the typos - nm
nm
pardon the
....
I beg your pardon.
But I have no idea what you are talking about. My interpretation was entirely different. There is no need to be nasty.
I BEG YOUR PARDON
I think any company where you cannot verify how many reports you have done in a shift with the line count on the Dictaphone web site is a crock and I told them that. What if you have dropped reports or 2 or 3 of your reports aren't there? You cannot verify that.
There is a part on the beginning that says sessions and it is blocked. This is where the number of reports and line count can be shown for a day.
Pardon me...
I was referring to the person who we reported to directly. You can bet whatever you want. I can only speak truthfully about MY experience. Please feel free to share your experiences, but please don't try to discount someone else's experience with Axolotl because your experience is different. I have no reason to lie. I followed all rules and met all requirements while I was there, even though it was a struggle to do so.
I was well aware of the procedures in bringing QA inconsistencies to the attention of management. However, because of the nasty attitude of the manager, I just dealt with as long as I was there. I did not want to deal with her unless I absolutely had to.
Instead of trying to berate my post and call me a liar, why don't you try to post more constructively and answer the OPs questions. You will not stop me from sharing my experience with Axolotl TRUTHFULLY. As far as I am concerned, your post is pointless as I have no interest in working for Axolotl and have a great job where I am doing well - with kind and professional supes/managers to boot.
Any time I see someone inquiring about Axolotl, if the mood strikes me, I will post my experience again. If you don't like it, too bad. All you are doing is showing that not only does Axolotl have a nasty supe...they also have nasty MTs/QA whichever you may be.
To NOT A SHEEP - I beg your pardon!
First of all, I am don't consider myself one of the "favorites" that you mentioned on your post. I don't get gravy jobs. Au contraire! I'm certain that some people sign out when they see bad dictators because I often get only really bad dictators, but aside from joking about them, I still do them. I don't suck up to anyone. I have not had a raise. The only bonuses I have received were for working extra. I am aware that I am not the only person to experience a disaster (a month after having cancer surgery, mind you), but I received no money from OSi simply for that reason. I can type over 100 words a minute, but I stay on a job until I know that I have given it my best, and QA very, very seldom receives a job from me. I appreciate the people who have shown empathy and tolerance, especially when I'm sure that I was a real handful, and they have been as accommodating as they could reasonably be. I have just lived through a year from hell that is ongoing, and OSi has treated me better than I could ever have expected. I am not trying to be a "favorite." I am simply trying to do the best job that I can. When I take a person's money, I accept no less from myself than to actually work to earn it. I have years and years of experience, probably more years than you have been on this earth, as I cannot believe that a person with maturity and wisdom could write such bunk. I have probably forgotten more than you will ever learn, but I still know my place. I frankly don't care what you say about me. You don't write my paycheck. My loyalty lies to my employer, who has put up with me when they probably would rather have strangled me!
Pardon my ignorance
what is a hayseed and why are you proud to be one?
I beg ur pardon, young lady!
I was NOT being sarcastic! Medquist truly IS my best company - my previous company paid $9/hr. and at the Q I make $25 - U may open mouth and insert foot now, missy!
Pardon the typo should be "they are" all bad
NM
Beg your pardon. Not the minority. Hospitals are getting clued in.
important.
If we give them the proof by way of solid proof in educating them on how it is done - they will bring transcription back in-house to gain control of the cost.
Medical records are legal documents. Right now they are carelessly done and at great expense. Hospitals are paying through the nose for this "convenience". Times are getting tough and cost saving measures are on the horizon.
Control control control.
Oh, pardon me. It's just that when I'm wondering how I'm gonna make my house pmt
making half what I did last month at this time tends to make me a little testy.
My apologies.
2 typos
maybe no QA?
my typos
Oh yea, please don't give me slack about my typos.. I spend all day giving 99.5% of my typos the backhand, and when I am on the net, well, I really don't care!! Peace out..
sorry for the typos...nm

sorry for typos
It is 4 a.m. and typing all day!
sorry for typos

Sorry about the typos!! nm

Sorry about the typos
I meant to type she said she could not hire someone who could not follow directions. My mind went before my fingers on that one.
I apologize for the typos.
I guess I shouldn't try to type when I'm upset. 
Grammar and typos
I believe that Goldbird posted the same thing about there being no need to correct people on the board for typos or grammatical errors. There's really no need.
We all make typos!
Daphne,
Let me tell you one thing. I am not perfect and I did not proof my work in typing this note. I was just typing my fingers away and going from one chat to another. That was very unprofessional of you as an MT, supervisor, owner, etc., for you to throw your HATEFUL comments at me about me making a grammar error about worse versus worst. We all make mistakes. I have seen so many owners make mistakes. We are not perfect humans. We all make mistakes. Grow up!!!! You are acting like a child. I appreciate the Administrator on MT Stars to respect me as an individual and realizing that I make mistakes, but you should not advertise on this chat board to thousands of MTs about how stupid I am about making a grammar error where I forgot to proof my work. Why don't you go through every single one of these responses and start editing every single MTs grammar. I can guarantee you will find just as many errors like you did mine. Please be careful what you say in the future. Thanks again MT Stars administration for looking out for me regardless if I made a typo on my grammar!
Well, at least I can laugh at my typos - sm
some of ya'll seem to take them way, WAY to seriously. (And to hopefully avert any more flaming about being sloppy in my work, I'm TALKING ABOUT silly little mistakes we make when we're dashing off quick posts & emails.) And do you really think my thread is actually TESTIER than some of the total ragging that's been going on whenever someone on these boards stands up and calls a spade a spade?
Not!
Please excuse the typos...been up since 4 a.m.!
nm
Not really. Typos happen.
`
Typos happen, but
That is why you proof, and proof again, a document that is important to the image of the company. It looks extremely unprofessional!
Were the typos there for a reason maybe? nm
.
few typos in that last post...
I did already email the ones who asked.
Hope we all find the perfect company and make really great money!
Ahh Shux on the typos-
I thought I had an editing option before it posted. Be kind typing police :)
Exuse typos (sm)
Title should read: SS owes everyone on this board and the other board her deepest apologies.
Also, 1st sentence last word no should be deleted.
I guess I should calm down and take a deep breath before posting in anger!
Love the typos in the ad....
65 charter count and trasncription, LOL!!!
Sorry for the typos in the post above, I am
just taken aback by this sudden news and the words are coming out pretty quickly. The correct words are They and going. Sorry for typos.
sorry for the typos...long day---lol
nm
I'm more offended by the typos in the ad. nm
I agree with this regarding typos, but not a
grammar mistake that appears in the same post over 10 times, this really makes me cringe.
IMO if one is too tired to post without making 'cringing' grammar mistakes, then just log off and go to bed.
Tomorrow is another day!
Don't have my readers on, sorry for typos
dd
Excuse the typos please
x
One more thing - sorry for any typos. It is bedtime! nm
x
I do agree with some of your post but 6 TYPOS..sm
I do agree with some of what you typed - the small mindedness and all that, but you definitely do have 6 typographical errors just in that little post and yes, it's just a bulletin board.....but if one is a master MT, well that reflects usually in everything that passes through their hands...including some internet posting on forums/boards.
just my nickel's worth....
Excuse my typos. Not enough coffee yet! :) nm
s
Sorry for the typos. Up past my bedtime.
nm
oops sorry the typos - my 1st post.
You definitely cannot tell I have 19 yrs of experience by that post!! Yikes. Sorry about that. I think you can figure out what I mean, though. Thanks for your help.
Don't mind the typos - just woke up!!
x
sorry for any typos above...doing 3 things at once...NM inside
xx
yes - excuse the typos in above post please. nm
x
oops. Lots of typos. How about "you just cant WIN" maybe I need a nap@@@
Please excuse the typos. I typed fast as this
is such a hot subject with me. I should have proofed before I hit post. The content of the message is 100%, although the QA did not pass well. Forgive me!
I have big compassion for typos typed in haste
or even anger! Everybody does this.
But the errors that I pointed out are not done out of haste or anger, these are done out of lacking of grammar and spelling skills.
Done repeatedly, in this post 10 times the same mistake!
It is MT
MTs for plural
in the 60s, not in the 60's
etc....
Forgive the typos above, I was thinking faster than I was typing...
That's what happens when you drink too much coffee.LOL
In defense of poster with typos...Sometimes when you use so many expanders(fortunately = fty for me
so I bet she is a high producer 'cause she has awesome expanders... don't typos happen to you on the bo ards sometimes? Or you hit enter too soon and your post looks like a first-grader typed it out...
We shred all resumes with typos immediately w/o responding. sm
You would be surprised how many resumes that we receive have errors in them, both spelling and grammar. I am not a transcriptionist, so I am not overly picky about grammar, but at least spellcheck your resume. At least half of the resumes that we receive have spelling errors.
The emails count too. If you do not proof your email when I applying for a job, how do we know you will be more careful when transcribing?
At least 10% of the emails I receive have either no capitalization or no punctuation. I disgard those too. Someone who is too lazy to capitalize the first word of a sentence or use punctuation in an email applying for a position probably is too lazy to proof their work when transcribing.
This is not meant to be cruel, but it is the truth. The image you project when applying for a job is very important, even if not face-to-face.
Shoot scuse my typos...tired...bad docs...long day...
