My supe puts NOTHING in an email

other than her little account update. She will NOT respond to an email (nothing in writing) to any questions at all -- she picks up the phone and calls.  I have sent her several emails with concerns -- NO RESPONSE -- but my phone will ring at home -- I guess I will start recording my phone conversations with her !!!


I have asked for a LONG TIME about my account "going bye bye", and because the work was no longer there. Only this week did she say that it had gone to VR -- she would not put that in writing, or even hint that the account was going by the way, and believe me, I have asked her where the work has gone. When you have been on an account for a long time, an MT knows when the works "dries up." Doesn't she?


So basically, the supe's responsibilities are to email account updates 2 or 3 times a day, beg for the MT to take on ANOTHER new account that she has been handed down to her team (to slow the MT down), beg for the MT to work WHEN SHE NEEDS YOU (not when you were scheduled to work -- because the overseas MT's was not going to work that day and she needs you, or ASR equipment was down), be team cheerleader in an email occasionally when you have made HER look good, take care of the little kids they have at home with them. That pretty well describes the supe on my team.


Hey, my family puts the FUN in dysFUNctional!
RadGuy, you could start a blog and publicly post your family's antics for the whole world to see. Just kidding.... It sounds as if a cruise or weekend getaway is in order!
Official policy puts it best . . .
from the 2002 AAMT Book of Style:

"Obscenities, profanities, and vulgarities do not belong in a patient's record unless they are part of direct quotations that are essential to a report."

In 20+ years of transcribing, mostly psychiatry, with, as one might imagine, a lot of profanity, I've always just typed whatever the clinician quoted the patient as saying, and have never had a complaint.

Good luck,

CTT

How about when the acct. mgr. hand-picks easy reports and puts them in the que of less qualified/tal
Then the rest of us are stuck listening to Ho Chi Minh struggling through a neurosurgical op note because we're "more skilled and able to handle it," and end up making about 50 cents an hour. When you think about it, it's easy to get "punished" for not sucking at this job and the rest of us end up pulling the slack for the dead lumber that took a 2-week correspondence course and have to be spoon-fed easy reports for reasons unknown to me.

Doc is using software to do his own reports that puts the ® symbol after trade drug names and
I'm wondering if anyone is aware of a software program, maybe voice recognition, that does this? (I coudn't access the VR board to ask).  This is one doctor in a practice that I transcribe for and I usually do his transcription for him, but the last time I logged into their computer to send them their files, there were reports in his file that I didn't transcribe that have this ® behind the trade names.  I want to do a little research before talking to the practice.  TIA
A friend of mine puts her fork in and twists the kernals on it and then eats it.
It's not as messy this way.
Stating you are "seasoned editor" at 18 years, guess this puts me in the higher-ups at my 33+
it would seem to me that you, with your experience, should let her know being a nurse alone does not make 1 a good MT. Like I said, I think a person should get some education in this field, having an RN does not necessarily mean a good transcriptionist. I cannot believe the posts I read on this thinking what a dream job just because I, want to stay home with the kids, want to keep my animals company and think easy because I don't have to leave my home to work. Any MT worth their salt does not do this job just for selfish reasons.
TY, Admin. nm

Thanks ADMIN...nm

Not admin but I can help.
Click on the sticky note at the top of the page, click on the "click here" and log in.  Now at the top of the page there will be an "edit profile."  Click this and change what you want to change.  I did the same thing at first with my name because I thought that was what they expected.  After seeing it the first time, I knew better and changed it.  It will change your avatar on every post when you do this, so your name will be taken off all.  Hope this helps.
Admin, pls sm

The Gab Board does not have a button in the *jump to* list, it is only listed on the boards to the left of the screen.  I never had the list of boards to the left, and maybe others don't, and so they would not find the Gab Board.


I did not get the list of boards to the left until I updated my antivirus program.  I even followed the instructions listed awhile ago from your web master and did not get the list to the left.


At least this is the way it is on my computer; maybe others also, in which case they would be posting on the wrong board, or not using the Gab Board.

If Spheris is not allowed to post here because they offshore -- how did they get my E-mail address to send me E-mail asking me to come to work for them????

Please see message on Monitor board.
Admin - can you please clarify? sm
I thought we could not post any places that have MT chats? I had a post deleted because I gave a link to the (place) where you get your CMT credentials.
Thank you Monitor/Admin !! nm

Agree, thanks admin.

Thank you for clearing that up Admin. I appreciate it! nm

Don't let this thread fall away - move it to the top and lets get everyone to take action - send to news, Glenn Beck at me@glennbeck.com - bombard the media and lets see if we can finally do something. This time it is not just the MT word against others, it is actual video that must be seen by all - Everyone;'s job in jeopardy - not just the MT. Move it to the top. Thanks Hayseed for your post

Admin. Info

Thank you! 


Do you have the information for the Admin. on anything to send information?


To New Admin---you NEED a moderator

on the MQ board....the resident troll is back and as annoying as ever.  While we hate the overzealous banning....please, please, please remove the troll.  Disagreeing and trolling are way different, and the trolls DO need to be banned.

When I go to www.mtstars.com, my norton antivirus blocks a browser exploit.  Norton says the risk is MSIE ADODB. Stream Object File Installation Weakness.  Is this a virus on the site?
Then why not E-MAIL admin?

Admin -- how did they get my E-mail address

I do not belong the AAMT, I was contacted by Spheris by E-mail asking to fill out an application.   And this is the only place that I ever post anything about being an MT -- so they got it from here.   This has been mentioned before and somehow our E-mail addresses are gotten and I would like to know how.    Like I have said, I have never posted a resume, never applied for a job and only have posted about 10 messages in the past six to seven months.   So how they got it, I don't know.


 



 


No admin didn't. confirm that!
You can tell that you obviously are them.
Well, there is an answer on that board from Admin
that states a physician does answer and just doesn't sign his name off as Dr....

I think we should be made aware of which advice comes from the physician and which comes from other users. I agree.

I was just thinking that a legal board would be nice that had an attorney and/or DOL expert to answer questions.

I hope you were not thinking I was making a reference to your post. I wasn't at all.

Just a suggestion for a legal board, that's all.
No, I didn't think that at all. I did see Admin's response there.
I do agree that you can't differentiate if the licensed physician doesn't identify himself from the average Joe on the board.  Otherwise, you think it's just another MT so you won't necessarily take the advice seriously.
I support the Admin...I don't need another space.
The unhappy MQ MTs are not the ONLY MTs on this board.

You can leave if you want to. The board will continue because there are plenty still left.

Same theory with the MQ job position as with posting on here -- if you're not happy with it, go find another job or another board....or work for yourself/create your own board.

Silly to expect others to accommodate you in your job and on the board. Check with Yahoo and MSN or even your local ISP -- they can provide you with a website and you can run it as you wish.



Admin: I get cut off a lot in the subject/name fields.

Telerecruiting Admin Services
Has anyone worked for Telerecruiting Admin Services, or do you know someone that has. A friend keeps getting email from them, and wants to know if they actually hire or pay people the wages they advertise? TIA.

Admin, any way we "geezers" can have our own board? sm
The question another "oldtimer" posed this past week got such great responses, I'd love to have a board like that to visit all the time.  We are truly our own special breed, and it's so much fun sharing our past.  Why, even our equipment had character!  We could poll for the perfect name for it.  Whaddya think? 
Admin: Problem with Avatar SM

Hi!  I signed up, but need to edit it as I must have misunderstood and now my real first name is posting next to my avatar.  Guess it's no big deal, but would prefer that my board name post instead.  I keep trying to log in to change it, but it doesn't work.


Thanks for your advice,

it's Google ads. don't think Admin has any control over them.

Great post by the Admin!! also, know....sm

You can rest assured that it's far better to raise a child in happy divorced home than a miserably married one. 


My daughter was only worried that she'd be the only one in her class coming from a divorced family, and I really reassured her that, unfortunately, every other seat in a classroom back then (15 years ago) and today (in my area) is a divorce situation.  She came home almost immediately relieved that what I had said was true and that she didn't feel ever like she was a misfit. 


Best of luck!!!!!
