TTD new job ad. What the heck? They just let 16 of us go - and now they are hiring sm


Posted: May 23, 2012

on Chartnet, which is what we were all fired from.  Amy and Dawn have some nerve to post a job ad right after firing a bunch of people.

BE WARNED! Do NOT work for this fly by night company. You will be shorted on your paychecks or not receive them at all and you'll end up with your ID disabled with NO notice. 

This happened in March when 31 people were let go and again this week where 16 people were let go all from Chartnet.  So, they're doing the same thing YET AGAIN and they'll screw over even more people.  But, they're rats on a sinking ship because they're going to run out of people who are willing to work for them.

Keep in mind that we were not trained, we did not get any QA feedback, we did not breach their miserable little contract, we just got the boot. 

I PROMISE, you do NOT want to work for this company.  If you do, it's your own fault and you would deserve every bit that would be coming to you.  Do NOT jump on board their SINKING SHIP!

well, they pretty much got the work completed...sm - anon

and feel they don't have to pay for it, so now they will "hire" the next bunch, and still not have to pay for it, but alas, the work gets done, doesn't it. I smell another class action brewing here!!! get a backbone and contact the other attorney in the other case! stop these people! please. They only do it because they are getting away with it!

There's an attorney in the other case? Please tell - us what you know. Thanks! nm

this is the attorney in the Transcend case:
law offices of Kevin J. Dolley
I believe he is in Illinois, but he is accepting lawsuits against other companies, as well, and any other employees from Transcend who want to add themselves to the original lawsuit. He requires written documentation of your grievances. saved emails, contracts, perhaps even taped telephone conversations.

good luck if you try! Many of these places need to be brought to court for their actions and practices!

oops...attorney is not in Illinois, he is in MO. Sorry. don't want to mislead anybody. :)
Looks like this attorney has many offices. One in Illinois and Missouri. - anon

Thanks for the information. I emailed him and thanked him for looking into 'the services' in hopes that something can change. I have too many years...and too many tears. Where do we go from here when we need to work and have done this job for 40 years? Smart newbies---don't say 'just quit.' Don't show illiteracy...experienced enough of that. I have learned wisdom.

Other companies do the same thing.. - MTlongtime

If you notice on the hiring every other week or every month some companies have turnover and look to replace. Same thing happened to me with Breitner. I was not paid. I had to get after them, and then they sent me an old check... be careful of this kind of practice. They will hire you, get rid of you and if you don't complain they get free work.

WHY IS TTD ALLOWED TO ADVERTISE HERE? - Alice

I thought that companies with issues regarding nonpayment were banned from posting job ads here? Not so with TTD?

They just offered me a part time job (which is what I prefer), the hours I requested (no weekends and only 3 days per week) to work on an EditScript account which I believe is mainly straight typing.
After reading the previous posts, I'm rather concerned now about TTD. I'm researching as much as possible. I have a job that's fine, but I'd like to get out of weekends...

There are tons of posts about TTD and their shady dealings. - That really should be (sm)

[ In Reply To ..]
enough for you, but I can also add that the dictators on EditScript are horrible, mostly HEAVY ESL. Keep in mind that there are SIGNIFICANT pay issues, many layoffs. The owner has a pattern of doing this over and over again. Please don't think that you would be any different than any of us who were terminated unjustly. Somehow, since March of this year, I highly doubt 47 people had quality issues. Our contracts also said nothing of a specific number of hours or lines we had to generate and that was another so called reason Amy and Dawn said so many were let go. I'm owed 3 paychecks now. Ask yourself how you would react if you haven't been paid for 3 paydays. Please, please, please read all the posts about TTD. Check the archives here, go to Google and enter The Transcription Doctors or TTD and see everything so many poor MTs and QAs have had to endure. It's a sad tale, indeed. I wish you the best in your decision.

How about we all send responses to some of these ads by these MTSOs - IAMT

stating things that voice our complaints and flood their email accounts. Make it short and sweet - something like "Gosh, was going to apply but then I read that your company ......" Fill in reason why you would never work for them - like "Shame on you for trying to bring down an industry filled with trained professionals" or "I heard you cheat MTs out of their paychecks" or "Sorry, my bad, didn't notice that you pay 3 CPL" or "How do you people sleep at night?" Keep them busy wasting their time for a change.
I was forced out of the Q three years ago and after... - sm

seeing what companies were paying experienced acute care MTs I decided to retire. Since then, I have sent many emails to MTSOs, especially those hiring "ICs", mostly for 8 cents a line, and then having absolutely illegal requirements. In the view of the the IRS and labor department, these small and medium-size MTSOs are small potatoes, but one of these days I hope, if there are enough lawsuits and complaints, things will get better for all the wonderful MTs out there. I am going to start emiling hospitals, private practices, surgical clinics, etc.

They advertise every 5 or 10 days for years now. - Nothing new really.

Okay - I know it is the singular (Latin version) of nares, but I've never in my entire MT career seen it used. Is this a new thing now? Just seems wrong - especially when the standard for that OP procedure has it as nares. Then again, most of the standards are incorrect too. BOUYA!! This has probably already been discussed on this board somewhere -- just wondering if anyone actually types naris? ...
