Throwing my hands up in the air.

I have been job hunting since May of this year. I don't have acute care experience, lots of Radiology and clinic experience. (11 years). I have passed tests, I have sent out resumes, I have tried job boards, etc. I either a) Never hear anything; 2) Been told, hey you passed with flying colors but we already picked our applicants; 3) Been told they needed me, then did a 180 and said no they didn't but will hold my resume; and 4) Been told my system is too u ...

Today I received an E-mail stating that I did not meet production. This is the first time this has happened to me. It just keeps getting harder to make any lines between VR and almost 100% ESL. Sometimes I feel I would be better off working at McDonald's or Walmart the way things keep going. ...

It is so frustrating to be working when only a few others are working and having the job#'s progressively increase, but then have a really horrible dictator's file come in that was hundreds of jobs before the rest in your box! In other words, being thrown back. If you have your client set to show TAT, you can see it in the TAT too! Like file 1 being at 18:05, file 2 being at 18:05, file 3 being at 18:03, but then file 4 being at 16:55. If this happened with any of t ...

I have worked for Hands-On for a few years now and I think it is a well run company. I recently had surgery for breast cancer, and the owner and manager were very compassionate and concerned for my well being. They are always available to help if I have a question. It is one of the best jobs I have had. You have to work hard, but after all it is a job and if you follow the "rules and regulations" regarding quality of work and turn around time you will get along just fine. You also transcrib ...

What time is the meeting? ...

Date: 10.21.09 I am 44 and a medical transcriptionist. I started working as an MT at age 35 and since then has been doing this job. For the last one year I have been experiencing numbness and paresthesias in both hands and lots of trouble with neck stiffness and fasciculations in both shoulders. I type for 8-1/2 hours from Tuesday to Saturday. I have concluded from this that onset of carpal tunnel starts when a person(male or female) is 40 or above 40 years of age. ...

I have applied for a job with On-Hands Transcription - I do not see information on here - positive or negative.

I found some old posts in the Archives but was wondering if anyone had any recent experience with this company. Their website is a one-pager with not a whole lot of information but looks legit enough. Also, is Bayscribe easy to learn and utilize? Will it interfere with any player I currently use for voice files? I have never used any kind of platform - always just digital voice files and Word. Any information or input on either question is appreciated. Thanks! ...

Have all of you gone crazy? I have worked for C and Hands On for more than 10 years, have always gotten paid, always had work every day just as promised, and love the flexibility of my job. It is obvious that those of you who were not doing your job, and therefore have too much time on your hands, because you can't find another job are posting this non sense. I know C has been in business for 30 years starting from scratch. Tell me....how does someone stay in business for that long in ...

I've been recently "acquired" by MModal and am jumping through lots of hoops. Have been informed by our CCM that we are required to attend the All Hands Meeting today at 12 EST. Just wondering what this is and if it's something I need to worry about. ...

Okay everyone... who knew TTS and Nuance were affiliated?? Come to find out, they do our "overflow" and here's the nasty, subversive part -- They get paid more to do it. Feelin' the love. ...

Hello, this may be an unusual question, but I have been transcribing for about 3 months now, after completing 12 months at Career Step. I've been noticing over the last week that my hands are looking almost like skeleton hands. It's like the fat is disappearing and the bones are becoming more prominent. Also, the veins in my hands are becoming very, very vascular. They are about the diameter of a drinking straw. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this common with excessive typing? I ...

With straight typing, one space after a period or two? I haven't used two spaces since the old days of typewriters. Am I getting a lower line count with using only one? ...

MModal uses not only United States and India, but Canada, UK, and Philippines for countries to get the United States medical reports done and trying to keep 20% of the jobs in the United States. Much more growth opportunity to become an MME. We still have part time MTs. A small number of MTs were affected that were let go.

My vote will be the first one cast. ...

See (lol), anyone can come up with a Shock and Awe type of title/campaign to get peoples attention to read their post. I mean really, Spyware?!?? Give me a break Pete. It was just about as silly and borderline slanderous as your post! Monitoring keystrokes goes back to the inception of computers being used in transcription. THESE REPORTS WERE DESIGNED TO HELP...END STORY Look,companies hire and they lay off, its never pretty. I am sure that the layoff was unavoidable as MTSO's are not into ...
