Long time MT - Me2

We mean nothing, but we can thank the wonderful companies, such as Nuance, M*Modal, etc., for the decline in this profession and the pay and the way we are treated. There is no other job that I know of, that treats it's employees the way these companies do and don't even get me started on being an IC. That is the biggest ripoff ever.

Also the hospitals are a business, and they want the very best for the cheapest price they can get. We have been sacrificed!
