OTI/Mercedes - am I the only one who received no notice whatsoever from OTI? - zs

Posted: Sep 09, 2014

I received no notice from OTI/the sisters that there would be any change/division of company - the only thing I received in my email has been from Mercedes. Am I the only one who OTI didn't contact before all this went down?

If I were you, I would email the sisters and K and ask why you were not notified! - nm

intrigued by "Mercedes and the sisters" saga - sisters or nuns?

[ In Reply To ..]
I must say I have become very much interested in the ongoing saga re "Mercedes and the sisters," whoever they be...are they biological sisters or nuns? Until then...I will continue to read all about it; please keep us posted! I vacillate between picturing 'the sisters' as an MTSO-owning power duo and alternatively, as nuns, representing a hospital in some capacity, though not necessarily the sweet old, virginal kind...well, maybe the virginal kind, but not so sweet--as if they're nuns running a transcription co they are likely just like the rest or will be...!

The sisters are siblings, not nuns - anonymous

They are siblings.

Made me think of "The Sisters" in the prison - in Shawshank Redemption

The little mini-gang of "gals" who routinely harrassed Tim Robbins' character in the laundry room.

It made me think of - - "The Sisters of Belleville"

Have any ProScript employees received notice that your status is being changed to statutory and that your line rates are being cut for VR starting 1/3/2010? I would like to hear if this is affecting all employees or only some. This probably is going to cause quite a pay decrease as well. ...

I decided to send them the contract e-mail back stating I would not be accepting and why - that with 20 years experience, I will quit the industry before going that low and that there are still other jobs out there willing to pay more (even if it is only for 6 months to a year that they told me it would last). I said if they get no takers and want to consider offering us more, please feel free to contact me. Hopefully, we all do the same. Good luck. ...

Apparently I am probably with one of the "sister" companies in this transition. Like you guys, I am trying to weigh out my options here. I'm reading the comments about the offer from Mercedes. Does anyone know if RecordsOne is offering pretty much the same offer? I feel like if the "sister" company keeps me onboard, to go on the other accounts they have, are they really able to "absorb" another MT. I feel like the relative you let sleep on the couch just beca ...

I listened to the Mercedes town hall. What did you think? They did say VBC was coming. Does this sound like Bayscribe to you? They said VBC was coming, but rate of pay would not change. I wonder how that will work. They promised nothing would change as of October 1. I wonder what it will be like on January 1. ...

On reading the posts below, if an MT makes 8 cpl and pay is cut down to 6.5 cpl, that is an approximately 20% pay cut. Then, going from a 65-character line with spaces to VBC (a 65-character line without spaces), that is an approximately 30% pay cut. So, 20% plus 30% equals an overall 50% pay cut. Can that possibly be correct? ...

I have received an offer from this company and she said it paid 0.065 cpl straight transcription. Well, I start reading over the new hire paperwork and it says pay is 0.065 VBC. So, I am not working for somewhere if they don't pay spaces. I email her and say I am no longer interested. She emails back and says that they do pay for spaces and that it has something to do with Bayscribe which i know nothing about. She wants me to reconsider? What do yo ...

I wondered if everyone has received their W2s by now? I left MModal several months ago when I realized staying for the benefits was not worth the stress and LOW pay, but have yet to receive my W2. I also did not receive my final PTO pay but it was less than 100 dollars so did not pursue it other than a few emails (and yes, I gave 2 weeks' notice and worked all of that). So glad to be gone and wishing everyone still there the best in 2015 as I feel for you.& ...

a phone call earlier from MQ with a job offer. This is from where I applied FOUR years ago and then pulled my application because I was offered something better. This lady calls me today and tells me how there is such an abundance of work, I can pick any shift that I want, no weekends and a really decent CPL. Thankfully I am extremely happy where I am so I very politely declined the position and thought that I would come here and see how things are going. WOW, what a shoc ...

While on Facebook last night, I mentioned about going back to school to be a vet tech. and one of the things I mentioned was that it was work that would NOT be oursourced to India. Some guy from India sent me a message asking what was wrong with sending work to India. So I told him how it has decimated the careers of American MTs, how American MTs often can't even earn a living wage because they are competing with the low wages paid to Indian MTs. I could have said more to him, but I left i ...
