Am I the only one without work today at Transcend/MDI? nm - 8 hours and counting

Aren't you on the same account as before with the same amount of work - as before when with MDI? sm

Didn't they say there would be no changes? Wouldn't that mean you would be on the same accounts as before with the same amount of work?
Yes, same accounts as before. sm - OP

You would think that would mean same amount of work, unfortunately not the case. It takes me 10+ hours now to get enough lines to meet my commitment(if I'm lucky) whereas before it took around 6. Some days no matter how many hours I sit and watch for work, it is just not there. Today is one of those days.
My accounts are extremely busy. - MDItrans

I have exactly the same accounts now as I did with MDI - i.e. nothing has changed.
But, I can't believe anyone would actually say that we were to expect the same amount of workload! It is never the same now is it. Least it is not on my accounts. But not to beat that dead horse again, that thread is below.

Letter From Lawyer Today -- Re Transcend May 24, 2013The letter offers me to join in a lawsuit against Transcend. Have you received one, and if so, if you plan to join the lawsuit, would you share your reasoning? Do you think one might be "blacklisted" for joining such a lawsuit? Also, I do not understand how they can sue Transcend if it is now part of Nuance? ...

Is Anyone Else Getting Less ASR Today? Feb 03, 2010My work is normally about 97% ASR, today I have only had 1 ASR job. I'm not complaining, quite the opposite actually. I'm just curious if anyone else is getting less ASR work today. I was hoping it was down and we can expect a day or two of straight typing. ...
Anyone Else Down Today? Apr 29, 2010Unable to log on because DQS needs to be updated. Then can't update on DocuManage because there's no link. They tell me they someone will call back and help me, but they have no way of knowing when. This would definitely qualify for technical downtime, am I right? Anyone else having this issue today? ...
What Is Up With DQS Today? May 23, 2010DQS is driving me crazy today. When I push the pedal, it takes a couple seconds to start playing. If I let off the pedal, it keeps going for a couple seconds and I can't get it to stop. The typing I am doing does not keep up with my finger speed either, with words not showing up until after I've typed them.
I use my own computer and have never encountered this issue before. It is a major hindrance though, slowing me down.
What's next? ...
Today Was My Last Day With MQ. Jun 08, 2010Typing that last report, signing out for the last time.....it was all very surreal. I still can't believe I actually left. Sad though because I wasn't offered anything PT (not that I would had taken it), and nobody said "we'll be happy to take you back". AND....no exit interview. Guess I thought they appreciated me more than that. Oh well. Some of my friends wished me well and will miss me. Thats all I need. ...
QA'd My First ILP Today. Feb 02, 2011Horrendous, absolutely horrendous. It felt like I was editing an ASR report.

Hope everybody has a great weekend! ...
Today Is When I Let It All Go Jul 13, 2012I get so fuming mad about all these things that are going on at Nuance and with our careers and livlihoods, the lies and deceitful practices of this company that came along and gobbled up all the MTSOs and made my life a nightmare.
I am the type of person that wants to fight for what is right and make my voice heard. Why such a company could come in and treat the employees the way Nuance does. I fell that if I try to fight I will just get myself into major trouble. ...
The BIG Lay-off Today Apr 04, 2013I have not posted on this site for a long, long time because there is so much negativity on here and stuff that was posted that is simply untrue. Not sure why anyone would stay with a company when they are so unhappy and then good people get laid off. Today I got the call, about 3 hours into my shift. I knew something was up as my caller ID never says Medquist on it. My TSM's voice sounded really awful and all she could say was I am sorry to call with bad news but you have ...

Today Was My Last Day As An MT May 22, 2014After over 25 years as an MT, I'm not going to lie, I am a little sad. However, MT is not what it used to be. It served me well for about 20 years or so before it started to go south. I did manage to avoid VR, but it was only a matter of time.
I recently completed school (again) and I am starting a new career. I know many people think it can't be done on the wages MTs have been reduced to, but I am living proof that it actually can! I continued working as an MT while I was in sc ...

Something That Irks Me Today.......... Dec 09, 2009So our CCM emails us saying when our work dries up there will be a certain account that we will help out on (as we have in the past). She apologizes, saying she knows this is a very "difficult account, but we need to leave as few QA markers as possible."
This just rubs me the wrong way. She's right--it's difficult alright--- but not in the way she is implying. She implies it's difficult because of the "difficult" terminology used in all the cardiac cathete ...
So Irritated Today. Dec 30, 2009It seems like every report I do today has an idiot on the other end. I just had a doctor dictate "Medications (really long pause) 750 mg p.o. b.i.d. x5 more days."
Really? It'd be nice if you said WHAT medication that is!
I swear, ALL of them have been like that today. They either drag on forever and forget what they're even saying or they just leave off half of the word because they think I should just know what they are saying/thinking without having to hear ...
