What About This Idea?
Apr 08, 2010

I would like to suggest that every unhappy MT at MQ jam the phone line(s) of Employee Assistance and share how the stress from working at MQ is affecting your health, your work, and your personal lives.  If this is supposed to be a benefit for all employees, then make it work for you by calling, one by one, day by day, hour by hour, and then, quite possibly, you will see another benefit taken away from MTs (such as no-strings-attached QA) but at least you can get satisfa ...

Odd Idea

This occurred to me today and just thought I'd share.  What if this were a supportive forum? No, no, I'm not talking about not complaining, etc., that's important to do, IMO. But, we are all in the same craft, so maybe we could cheer one another on! Even get to know one another. OMG, that would be awful! I was in a completely different industry a few years ago, and it was full of stress and difficulty, and we griped all the time, but in the end, we lifted one another up, vers ...

New Job Idea
Nov 20, 2012

Today I had to go to a deposition at my attorney's office. There was a woman there who was a "voice-writer" to be present and record the meeting. She used a mask over her mouth and repeated into the mask everything that was said verbatim. We could not hear her. This went directly onto her computer screen which was connected and she said all she had to do now was edit the voice recognition report. I looked it up online and there is a lot of information about this field. I am thinking of cons ...


Another Job Idea
Nov 20, 2012

I previously worked for a MTSO whose main focus was on buying out every company possible. I had enough of the micromanagement and pay cuts, low work, no work, etc. so I just walked away after giving notice. I had been looking for work daily, applying, sending resumes with no luck. Then I saw at the local mall where many seasonal positions to work in the stores were available. I applied having no customer service skills, but I got the job. My foot is now in the door! I am hoping it will lead to a ...

just started work for this company.  Thought I would pass it along, sounds like they have offices in several states.  She is in IT, but I notice they have call center jobs, including one at-home job in Ohio.  Thought it might be of help to someone.  I don't know why I can't get the link to show up, anyway: http://www.startek.com/us-careers ...


I Have No Idea If It Is The Job
Sep 21, 2014

But I find myself chronically angry.  Today I've had nothing but crap dictators and every single report has had at least 1 blank in it.  Nuance, c'mon, get a clue will you?  Is it any wonder you're losing people and have to keep posting for new people?  Bring back the good stuff from India and give them the crap dictators and let them see how they like it.  OK, rant over. ...


Got An Idea
Nov 07, 2014

Suggest they call MH back again for the umpteenth time...she's always willing to return again and again.  If not, maybe her daughter.  That's their answer to any problem in the past.  Even if they can't stand her or her daughter... they usually resort to them in a pinch.  Oh, but don't call her a coordinator, no, she's an account facilitator.  They have more made-up titles for people. What a joke!!!! ...

Nov 14, 2014

I've muddled through a whole procession of unfamiliar accounts and dictators this morning til my head hurts.  And now we get an e-mail stating (surprise, surprise!) we are really backed up and asking for OT for this weekend.  Let me think about this....do I want to spend this weekend chained to this desk for pennies struggling through one lousy report after another to bail them out of the consequences of their wonderful new "Pod" idea?  Ummm, let me think.  No.  Tha ...


I Have An Idea .....
Jan 18, 2015

How about when we all leave Nuance to find other employment, we make a little phone call to the hospital(s) and/or clinics we transcribed for and tell them what an awful company Nuance is.  Maybe they will stop using Nuance for their transcription and one by one they will lose business.  Seems like the only way to get back at these sneaky. ...


Anyone Have Any Idea On This?
Jun 16, 2015

My company is in the process of being absorbed by Nuance.  We have to test and interview but were told most of us would be hired by them.  They said they would try to give us schedules/hours we have now (or would like), but I am wondering if they end up offering us horrible hours (like overnight) and we don't take it, if we would be inelligible for unemployment.  Does anyone have any idea? ...

I Have A Great Idea
Aug 19, 2011

Why don't all of us who are tired of everything join forces and form our own company.  We live all over the country, know how to do the work, know how to QA, know different platforms.  Hundreds of us together could market our own vicinity and work together like a coop.  We would all make the big bucks.  It has to work, as we are the people who keep the large companies in business.  Coops work with any other business, why not with this.  What do you think ...
