    First, I was being a bit sarcastic ...
    Second, while I think a union that is in full force today would make an impact in the problems the industry is facing, I don't think a new fledgling union start would change much for the better now.

    Just my opinion.
    What? Are you being sarcastic?
    Honestly I feel sorry for some of the children of the people on this board. Can you give compliments to them, or is everything they do bashed too if not up to your standards or your opinion of what everyone's standards should be. Of course not, your kids could be living in the street and you'd be on here posting how wonderful they are. If these are grown women posting, they should be ashamed of themselves! Patti's house is beautiful, maybe not for everyone, but if she loves it that is ALL that really matters. The rest of you sound like you live in a trailer park.
    Where did I say they were being sarcastic?
    I did not. YOU are the one assuming now. I have editing experience, I have transcription experience and I have supervisory experience. I just don't have editing and supervisory experience in the medical transcription field. Thus, the "break into" comment. I didn't feel the need to go into specific details about my background and college education. But thanks for all the help. If you can't answer the question and provide anything positive to the conversation, why post at all? Just to be snarky and accusatory?
    No not me....I was being sarcastic...
    I was on your side. Mean that poster was the one stirring.
    Are you just being sarcastic?
    It's sort of hard to tell for sure.

    If not, they would need her Soc# for government help, so I would think they would know she is working.

    I would say, check out what your state offers and do what you have to do (quit if you must), but I do think it is very odd that you have been trying for a child when you are so hard up financially ... and even more odd that you didn't have a plan in mind as to how to deal with the health care.

    I think we would all really like to hear your thinking on that part.
    I was just being sarcastic! :D sm
    Because they should NOT depend on us to automatically know how to spell anything right, not even "aspirin". If the doctor is going to spell out a word, he should spell it correctly or not at all. JMO.
    It is rude to be sarcastic.

    I, of course, was being highly sarcastic.
    Wow. No sense of humor? Seems this place can do that to some.


    Cheers, luv, cheers.
    Don't you think people know that? Stop being sarcastic!
    .
    This is just a sarcastic guess, but I'm assuming by the line - sm
    why else would there be so many mistakes. If they were paid by the hour, maybe they would spend more time on getting to know the ENGLISH language. I actually had a report come back from India where instead of the word "children" it said "litter."
    Yes, but the sarcastic exclamation points were unnecessary

    mean, sarcastic manager and QA cousin at meditec

    The internship is fine, don't look to get rich though. Purely training. Good way to get your foot in the door.  The reason why you may want to stay away is because of the manager and her cousin who is in editing. Mean, sarcastic people! That is how they treated me anyway.


    Clue to you
    Get a clue, get educated.........9/1I HAD NOTHING WHATSOEVER TO DO WITH IRAQ OR SADDAM..Where is Bin Laden??  Where are the masterminds of 9/11??  Nothing to do with 9/11..If you believe that, oh geez..read a newspaper or two..
    I have no clue
    ??
    Oh, we have a clue!
    We have a clue that you are in management at an MTSO. Naturally, you would not want us complaining about low wages, now, would you - more money in your pocket.

    Go back in your closet now. No one wants to hear from you!
    Or else because they don't have a clue
    8
    Please go away until you get a clue and can
    carry on an intelligent discussion.
    you know I don't have a clue who sm
    the heck you are and I really don't care. But, I never have had a post that I said anyone was a plant, management, lying or anything else.

    I don't know even how this got started except there is another poster obviously that I am mistaken for. I don't care if you do VR, MT, scrub toilets or are a Walmart greeter. Grow up, get a life adn stop ripping me apart. You have me mistaken for somebody else. I am a MT (as you supposedly are) who just found a decent job and wanted to let folks know there are jobs out there and I get ripped apart by somebody telling me things I said that I did not say and has me mixed up with somebody else.

    Good God grow the heck UP!!!!!!!!!!! If I were management I wouldn't hire someone with your attitude. GEEZE!
    Do you have any clue what they are up to. It is obvious they are up to something.

    I just hope everyone is calling Corporate.


    I haven't a clue...
    Maybe Casper the Friendly Ghost?
    Really have no clue, but did you install the new RAM - sm
    in the first slot? The larger memory strip has to go in the first slot, and the smaller RAM/DIMM whatever you have goes in the next slot. Is that possibly the problem?
    No clue really but perhaps on the boards...sm
    Equipment or Technical boards here at mtstars might help you better than I cannot.  I only know that one of my monitors has a very small screen and I cannot see a lot of what I'm supposed to see on that screen.
    I haven't a clue
    nm
    So give us a clue HE-man!!

    yup, but this doc wouldn't have a clue about that...sm
    I'm almost positive he's using a VR software or something else. 
    JLG RULES to those who have a clue

    I am amazed and not surprised at how many children we have out here who apparently have not cut it with JLG and now have to bad mouth one of the finest companies there is and I know it! I have had many of my former MT's come to work here -they are making wonderful pay....but perhaps that is because they work?! They aren't sitting on the message boards crying the blues because they didn't listen, couldn't follow simple rules, and probably lied about the length of experience as an MT so they were FIRED!! JLG is one of the finest companies there is. The work flow staff and owners are the finest I have every had the pleasure to work for and I have been in this industry as a CMT and now QA for 22 years.   They pay ridiculously HIGH and you have to have knowledge to make it with them. Stop saying things that aren't true THEY DO NOT run CREDIT CHECKS> FOOL THAT YOU ARE... if you cant cut it as an MT why understand this...JLG asks for a social security# simply to make sure that you belong to that SS# and that you are not an illegal alien working with someone else's SS#, also to ensure that you do not have any delinquent tax liens with IRS because by law they can not employ you as an IC and not pay uncle Sam because if you have not paid taxes before , well that says it all right there. So don't run your toilet when you don't know what you are talking about. What would they care about your light bill, phone bill or any bills on your credit report. That makes no sense but neither does anything negative I have read about JLG. So do yourself a favor, stop trying to work for a top notch company until you build your resume. Perhaps go to an accredited school and learn to be an MT and stop taking mail order courses that get you know where but broke and without a job to pay the student loan back. Anyone wanting to be an MT at JLG should be honored to get hired and also we have more work and more accounts and more new accounts that we can not staff fast enough to keep up. Perhaps you didn't have enough work because you are one lousy MT because that's usually why you don't get work. I wish everyone working here now could here this nonsense but we are too busy to do what you do all day which is make up fairy tales. Apply with JLG. Do yourself the favor don't listen to people that are just disgruntled because they couldn't make the grade. And contrary to MS Opinion....QA knows about everything at JLG. We have to baby sit and grade all the work that MT's do incase they fib about the experience and we have to make sure it is all spell checked and dot their Is and Cross their T's. So QA knows everything from how much work is waiting to be typed, how much has come in and how much will be there the next week. Get off it and get real. Perhaps McDonald's is hiring. Because I make so much money I am buying myself a new 40 thousand dollar vehicle in 3 weeks and let me say this I made just that in the past 6 months. Sorry it didn't work out Now get over it and if you don't like other peoples opinions STAY OFF THE BOARD Back to  my life. Sorry you couldn't have one too.  By the way I wont be back I do have work to do! I just had to come see for myself at the clown like stuff written about our wonderful company.


     


    I think you have no clue, here. Just what are you talking about? LOL
    Poster was talking about the context of that sentence made by the person complaining about how others speak and then goes on to say "People have a poor grasp on the English language *anymore*" which is totally poor English. I think it's a riot!

    I also hate when people say she use to instead of she *used* to. Ugh, we could go on here all day. lol

    Spoken like someone who has no clue.

    I have a bright idea for you. Go find your own accounts and charge them the rate that you feel you're so worthy of. I'm sure that if you get some takers at the rate you're asking, you won't have to worry about having too much work to do yourself so you won't have to worry about paying another MT the rate you're asking for.


    darn right, have no clue!

    "Have no clue" is an understatement!!!  Not being nasty here -- just stating a fact.  I know an MTSO who says when she tries to call physician's offices and gets the manager and explains that she is calling requesting to speak with the person in charge about doing their transcription for them, most often the answer she gets is "What's transcription?"  She swears they hire personnel based on a certain part of their anatomy and it's not the brain.


    Then, if she's lucky enough to get through to the physician in charge, he is not willing to pay a decent fee.  She has apologized to me for not paying me more but told me that on some accounts they are only making 1/4 of a cent after expenses (including MT pay).  She said they have to bid low to get the work.  She hates marketing now.

    Some people just don't have a clue
    I can't believe you would name an account publicly. Some of us still work there and like these accounts.

    We don't want to lose our accounts.

    Unbelievable!
    You don’t have a clue as to what this job entails
    Your last sentence is just loco. You don’t know how this works, probably have not had 1 bit of work relating to this field and I agree with the 30_ and fed up. This is not a job for women who "just want to work from home to be with their children", crappy reason to do anyway. Your last sentence really says it all, better than relying on the government to do this job. You have to first know what you are doing which you don’t and secondly yes transcriptionists are held to a high standard (don’t think you have that to start) and no one cleans up your work but looks like you would be a great place to start if they did.
    Can you give us a clue? Initials?

    Since that would be unique to each company, I don't know how anybody here would even have a clue.

    I have no clue why my reply to you was deleted!
    It was a friendly, I'm sorry you're going thru this, been there, done that post! This is beyond silly! Anyhooo, guess its not worth answering posts if they just get edited for no reason at all!  Maybe lots of others have answered you as well, but they disappear in a flash!
    You have no clue who I am so you don't know my level of peacefulness.
    Actually, I am a kind person and considered to be "peaceful".  Lennon was "in his time" back when drugs was the thing to do along with peace, love, no war, but it was ok to do every drug imagineable, participate in orgies, the sit ins, not wearing bras.  It was a change in time that young people of the time were going through.  It doesn't mean John Lennon was some sort of hero.
    Because at age 18 I, like most people, had no clue what was the right thing to do
    But I'm fixing that now. Better late than never.

    yes, Snow Bunny, I don't have a clue what
    your point is.  Explain, please.
    Wow, she doesn't have a CLUE what she's talking about.
    The hospital I worked for provided plenty of feedback. We also had to perform at 98% or better on QA. They were always looking for new technology to help cut costs and increase production. Sure, we could have a tech guy come to our house to fix our computer, but none of us needed one.

    Job search help needed/advice/clue me in!!!

    I guess I've been lucky to work with some wonderful MTSO's in the past! I've been an MT for over 10 years, but am just now looking for new work and have not worked for big, national companies before. I posted the other day about testing with companies, and I did and got 2 job offers. Yea!...you'd think.  Ha! 


    I thought I'd get offered a decent wage, for starters. Two companies offered me positions, one at 6.25 cpl and the other at 5.5 cpl. Both of them say they go up, the more lines you have. Unless they go up...like double...forget it! At least one of them additionally charges a fee if I don't make my anticipated line count during the payperiod (and I had to make my schedule a month in advance), as well as a bi-weekly service fee for using their software.


    Is this what I have to look forward to????? I guess my head has been in the sand, because I had no idea this is what people's contracts had in them. No wonder no one is making any money. Honestly, is this standard? Sorry if I seem so out of touch.


    I assume it's Dutch (like his wife) but have no clue how to pronounce it. nm
