Thank God in heaven I'm free at last! - Adios


Posted: Mar 09, 2012

Woohoo! Got the job offer today.  At long last I am out of transcribing.  I feel such relief I cannot even believe it.  No more production pay at poverty rate.  No more frustration of broken promises. 

For those of you staying, I really do hope the latest promises of hearing you and making changes will be kept. 

And for those of you who keep saying quit whining and do something about it if you are unhappy, venting doesn't mean we aren't doing anything about it, it is just nice to be able to vent to somebody who gets it.

You go girl/guy - gives me hope to see this as I am actively looking - nm

Always nice to hear somebody made it out! And out of transcription altogether, so you can't just get bought out by MModal a year or two down the road! Very happy for you.

Definitely agree with your comment on venting too. Some people do seem to believe that after posting a negative comment about our company, we spend the rest of the day crying and sitting on our butts. Considering we get paid production and we haven't starved would indicate otherwise.

Work is rarely fun, but it definitely shouldn't feel like a death march:)

This certainly fills me with hope that I can get out of here too one day.

Good luck!

Congrats to you, Adios! - MT Gone

I'm always glad to hear it when someone else makes it out by moving on to another, hopefully better paying, job. Jumped ship myself last fall after being sold out, 2 pay cuts, loss of bonuses, account disappearing, well ya'll know how it is. I don't know if where I'm at is where I'll stay, but I get paid a decent salary PLUS commission, and feel very positive about my future. Do I miss being a transcriptionist - yes? But life has gone on, and my bills are getting paid on time again!!!

Happy for you Adios! - Whoo-Hooo!

SOOO HAPPY FOR YOU...GOOD LUCK and ENJOY! - jh

I Can't Believe It, I Think I've Died And Gone To Heaven. Sm
Mar 08, 2011

Wow, all day today and yesterday I have been getting actual transcribe jobs, not ASR!!!  Whuppeeeee!!!!  This ol gal is relishing the respite for a while.  I know it won't last long.  I am enjoying it while I can.   I have been extremely, extremely sick for the last 2 months, and this is a joy for me.  With all the meds I take ASR tends to be too monotonous and I find myself drifting off.  Not good.  Transcribing keeps me alert and focused.  ...

I just got an eleven-minute dictation that I actually had the pleasure of transcribing as opposed to doing speech recognition on it.  The dictator was perfect!!  He spoke at a regular rate, not too fast and not too slow.  His thoughts were organized and he enunciated his words clearly.  I just typed my little heart out on that one and loved every minute of it!!!!  Why can't it always be like that??? <Sigh> ...

Free At Last!!!
Oct 25, 2009

After working for MQ for nearly 5-1/2 years, I'm finally leaving.  The first 5 years were great!  Then they decided to force QAs to do transcription and ASR.  If I wanted to transcribe I would have applied for an MT job.  Not to mention the fact that I was making close to $16 an hour and now this has been reduce to around $11 and sometimes under $8.  It's MQs loss.  It's too bad they don't treat their valuable employees better.  I just love ...

I'm giving notice that I'm quitting very soon!  I made good money until the last year or so and I'm leaving this job that I find boring and lonely (and now doesn't even pay well).  I'm going to be working for a doctor as a scribe and getting paid per hour!  Woo-hoo!!  The pay is not great but at least I will be out of the house and doing something a little different.  I will have human interaction too!  I'm burnt out beyond belief, ...

You know I am no longer with MQ. I did not pass the audit and honestly I really did not care to. I have figured out why bother.  Why kill myself for short checks. I have worked with them for 12 years and I feel so free right now.  I also am working for another company on the side so that helps  :)   ...

Judging from some of the recent posts below, there looks to be an exodus of sorts from MModal and MT in general. I have joined that group. I left MModal last month to pursue another at-home job NOT IN MT with flexible schedule, hourly pay, and pays substantially more than what I made at MModal. Don't know what took me so long to "take the plunge" away from MT. After many years of MT with 12 of those years being with Medquist/MModal and the last 7 on the same accounts, I already miss the wo ...

So I finished my MT course and began to look for work..It is going well other than I was contacted by, for now I will just say a company, I transcribed some audio files (not medical, which I found odd when she contacted me but okay) took me several hours, met the deadline, filled out the W9 form (with social security number) and sent it off. We had two seperate phone calls. She e-mails me that once the report goes through the proofing process and their system that I will get the repor ...

Free Spaces

Hi from Australia on Australia Day.  Only new at this MT at home business.  Struggling to get my line count up.  In all honesty it would take a few months to add in enough shortcuts to make it worthwhile.  I have been racking my brain over how to get those two spaces at the end of a sentence for free.  Finally it has come to me.  We all need to do an autotext incorporaing the last letter of a sentence and the first letter of the following sentence ie  I saw Liz ...


Free At Last From Nuance
Sep 11, 2013

Having a bad job is worse than no job, so I quit.  Nuance, a place with great expectations and a low-ball salary.  In fact it is the lowest wage job I have ever had with little to no benefits.   Can you imaging the smile on my face right about now.  Yes, yes, yes, I am free and singing a happy tune! ...

I finally did it...found a good, well-paying job outside of the MT world after 15 years! I felt bad giving no notice to my supervisor b/c I really like her, but I can't really feel bad for MM, the company itself....after the drastic cut in pay since voice rec, outsourcing, running out of work, all the demands on perfection and the crappy dictators, I feel like a giant weight has been lifted! ...

Can anybody suggest an inexpensive medical spellchecker program? I have Stedmans 2008 on my "other computer" which quit working earlier this week, won't be fixed til next week. had to get an inexpensive replacement today so I can work -- can't afford to be not able to work for that long and it will do as a backup in the future. Apparently Stedmans does not "service" the 2008 edition anymore and I can't load it on this computer because they don't do the activation, etc., st ...
