Who sued you?
Details please - who sued, what did they sue for (cause) and what kind of damages? it seems a little questionable that an MTSO that owed you money successfully sued *you* - without your being able to counter sue, or sue the MTSO right back...


My husband was sued for this
by a previous employer (not transcription) after he quit his job and took a job with a competing company with better bennys and $. It was a route/delivery type job.  He did sign a non-compete contract, but the judge denied their suite saying the company does not have a right to prevent a person for making a living. It was determined he was working an already established route and was not approaching the first company's clients, and therefore was not in violation. Of course every contract is different, but I can't imagine they can keep you from working.
Hope you don't get sued! LOL
While I can empathize with your desire to draw attention to what you feel is an outrage, your actions are probably poorly supported legally - if at all.

If I were that company, I would take you to the cleaners over it.

I don't believe for one minute your little signs have caused what you state they have. It's not enough to make insurance companies withdraw lucrative contracts. LOL

Good story line, though.

Might be for same reason the MQ people sued -
Line counts!!!!!!!!   Do you ever verify yours against another program?  What  about the reports typed but not credited for. 
I heard ex-SPi emps sued SPi and won

I heard that ex-employee(s) has/have sued SPi in the past and won.  Does anyone know anything about this and/or where I can get more info and the full details?


 


WHO is being sued for posting on the board?
Seriously is someone being sued for their post?

If so, what is the charge?

On the face of it, this seems outrageous - would appreciate any details you can share.


How are you privy to know amount she was sued for?
I might be wrong, and I keep up with these posts and never saw before the $$$ amount GP was sued for. Very interesting- sounds almost like she could have written this.
"you bet it does"
For one thing honey, I am quite sure I have been an MT longer than most of the MTs on here, over 30 years? I have been around the block and know how these national companies work. And who said my job didn't work out? You don't know anything about me. I never mentioned my job. I have never and never will kiss butt in any position for any amount of money. Where is "holier than thou" attitude? I don't think any of the MTs that are posting have that attitude. They are simply tired of working and working and not being appreciated. You MUST BE one of those butt kissers that you refer to because if you look around at the posters, most of them are in agreement. The ones that are not in agreement are either butt kissers or QA because there are very few positive posts on here. And no one likes "butt kissers" either unless you are one of them, which I suspect you are. If you have to be a "butt kisser" to get to the top or get promoted, something is wrong. A person should get a job based on their qualifications not because they are "a yes" person and that seems to be the case at OSI.
It should be "you are" obviously not, not "you obviously not"

Exactly. That also goes for good and bad comments. Employers can be sued.
Employees can also be sued. Bad taste though and we do not need that type of thing. We have had enough of it on these boards.
that should be "you're"

I hope you sued in small claims court! -(nm)

ANYONE ELSE BEING SUED BY TRANSTECH MEDICALFOR POSTING ON THIS BOARD??

gosh -- it's been over a decade since I've heard of anyone being sued ....
I could understand if they wanted to fire people who they felt were bad actors or had bad atttitudes, but I've never understood how/why they'd sue individuals for expressing their opinion -- unless they could prove that there was deliberate misrepresentation going on --- and I personally cannot imagine why anyone would try to make any MT company look artificially worse -- so many have such real problems -- like overstaffing, crappy platforms, lousy supervisors, crazy-making QA departments -- endlessly -- and so on

I remember when I first started with a national years ago (not TT) and discovering that they had sued MTs for posting over at MT Daily -- I couldn't imagine why they'd bother. Even then there was more competition for really good workers (who might chose to work elsewhere based on some internet postings) than there seems to be these days ...

What a waste! Better they all clean up their practices and spend the money doing some employee satisfaction polling ...
how 'bout "you're a fun one"
no message.
The statement "you get paid

when we get paid was a big STOP sign for me. All I know.


 


And "your" and "you're!"

I beg to differ on "you people" There
may be only 1 or 2 complainers, maybe a few more, but most everyone is happy there, so don't put all of us in that group.
oops. Lots of typos. How about "you just cant WIN" maybe I need a nap@@@

My (different) company gave us that "you'll
2 years later, I'm less productive, not more, on that godawful, 'new-and-improved' platform.
Gourdpainter - Aren't you the MT being sued by MTSO for slander/standing up? Yeah I need that.

When I use the word "you" in my post, I am not referring to you specifically but
all the posters on this board.

Remember..."There are 2 sides to every story" and "you can't believe everything you read

If emails saying, "You guys make Transtech rock" pays your bills, let me know, because

I have figured out a way to pay my bills with such **old, wornout** words.


Management is rocking alright, because their paychecks are not affected at all with the NO WORK/LOW WORK situation that has been going on now for MONTHS and MONTHS.  That seems so unfair when without the MT's, the mgmt would have no paychecks!!!!!

They are not telling "you" when to work, they are stating when they need work done.
As an IC, you have the right to accept the contract or not.

Would you let an IC roofer work on the roof of your house on Sundays from 7 a.m. to noon, and on Monday night from 11 p.m. to 3 a.m., just because they are an IC?!

As an IC, you make an agreement as to when you are available to work, and if it matches what MDI (or whomever) needs, then you sign a contract. Otherwise, you find someplace else to work, and they find an IC who is willing to work the hours that they need covered.
