TT and the posting of an IC getting work from TT. - anon
Posted: Jun 06, 2011
Concerned about the posting from the Midwestern MT who said she had work to be done from TransTech and here we all are sitting and checking and no work. Wondering now about this new SWAT team thing. From what I was told that the 'beast of the business' is they worry about TAT because they have to take a cut in their portion of the line count wages, so they'd rather meet the TAT? And yes, we are all cross trained pretty much anyway, but they want lightening speed. Even when a radiology account was posted I sat with no work on Acute Care work, yet I can go in and out of 5 different acute care accounts and all have no work. Used to have work from midnight ERs but now nothing.
I had no work at all last night on second shift - Old and Tired MT
[ In Reply To ..]I sent numerous emails regarding this and there has been no response. I'm beginning to wonder what's going on. Did they lose accounts, are they being bought out, or what? The silence is rather scary. Something funny is going on here.
what I get is heavy ESL and echocardiograms - dc
[ In Reply To ..]Personally, I usually have work but when I do, it's very difficult ESL and echocardiograms. The former is extremely time-consuming-if it gets sent to QA, QA will look for excuses to ding you-and the latter gives you basically no line count. I work about 7 days a week now to get the required line count.
I feel like something is going on... - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I remember when we used to get at least 5 emails a day. Now I think I get 5 a week. Communication has really gone down hill with TT. My work load is disappearing. Mondays and Fridays used to be the busiest days, not to mention weekends, now I struggle meeting my line count for those days. The other days I do not meet my line count. I have a bad feeling. TT used to be so wonderful. Now I worry that when I open my email I will have one telling me I am losing my job.
Something going on - metooo
[ In Reply To ..]If something is going on, the MT will be the last to know. I sensed it quite a while ago and moved on. The running out of work has been going on for a long time, I'm sure no one wants to address that with the MT, so emails are just ignored. Easier for them that way.
I just got the old "holiday and school letting out" excuse - Old and Tired MT
[ In Reply To ..]I'm sorry, but I'm not buying it.
For those of you working today.... - sm
[ In Reply To ..]just curious what your work load has been like today? Not much work for me today. Should have about 900 lines so far in my shift but only have 237!
I don't work until tonight - Old and Tired MT
[ In Reply To ..]There probably won't be anything tonight either. I know it's a bad sign when there are no emails and I start off with nothing but DS reports.
Just wondering if you had work last night? - nm
[ In Reply To ..]nm
Yes, finally, but-- - Old and Tired MT
[ In Reply To ..]I got mostly op reports, and I, too, get nothing but terrible ESLs and a lot of echoes, caths, EEGs, etc., which take a lot of time but don't give many lines. I end up having to work 6-7 nights a week to get my quota, which of course was raised this year.
ME TOO! - fellowpoorperson
[ In Reply To ..]Yep, I am really going to consider if it is all worth it.....wasting my nights sitting in front of a blank computer for a poor excuse of a paycheck.....I am going to sit down and crunch some numbers to see if it is worth it.
Me too - alsoanon
[ In Reply To ..]Worth it?? Nope, make better money as a Walmart greeter. Ain't flexing great?
Holiday, school out, yada yada yada - anontoo
[ In Reply To ..]Holidays, spring break, more holidays, summer, oh and "nature of the beast". Yep, TT is as honest as they come.
Me too. I've been getting strange vibes. (sm) - Worried
[ In Reply To ..]When we got that GC in the mail, I was opening it and told my husband, it's probably a pink slip. But that's a phone call.

Then when you answer and either ask for more information or ask the original poster a question, the original poster is long gone – never to be heard ...

on another board under the name of Focus Infomatics. It is advertising for acute care and new grads... out of curiousity, I clicked on the ad and was shocked to find that it was Nuance advertising. Perhaps they are having a bit of trouble finding qualified transcriptionists who will apply to their company and are now resorting to using an old name that was gobbled up or became a part of Nuance a long time ago. Kind of "shady" advertising, if you ask me. Hopefully the new ...

By no means am I trying to put anyone down in this profession, new or old; however, MANY years ago, PHONICS were taught in the schools, which was a form of English/spelling -- for example, if the word had an "F" sound to it it might be "PH" or some other form of spelling -- for example "frenulum" you hear the word and it might be spelled "phrenulum" does it fit in a "medical context?" This also comes into play with having the "proper tools" in place -- I have always ...
