Constant auditing until can't even work anymore

I just have to ask, in all sincerity, why does everone on here just bash all of these services to death? I have rarely found a good word from people about the places that they've worked for. You mean no one has had an enjoyable moment at any of these companies?? It just seems very odd to me that this is the way this board is run.... Is this really the case....that ALL of these services are garbage? Come on....There has to be some service that is a decent ...

With MM's restrictions on pretty much everything, how often does everybody get up to take a break? Previously I could get up and stretch, walk away for a few minutes before downloading the next job, but now I get reprimanded for inactive time. How long do you work before standing up? Do you stand and work at the same time sometimes. I have severe RLS and to top that off my chair is like sitting on a brick. Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks! ...

People in, people out. Like a giant sucking funnel pulling us down and out as fast as the Board of Directors acquires hundreds coming in with each new hospital or clinic account "acquisition." The pressure on you and me to quit is purposeful. It is what they PREFER. That way they don't have to keep firing people. Their luck with firing can run out and they know it. (Just the right lawyer, just the right set of documents proving their wrongdoing, just the right claim) could get ' ...

I have a supervisor at my company who constantly uses profanity when I speak to her on the phone, and constantly bashes MTs and other employees, so I'm sure she bashes me to others as well. She even does this on conference calls. I am always shocked at this behavior each and every time she does it. I find this so unprofessional and it makes me very uncomfortable, but I don't want to tell the owner/HR person. It makes the company look bad. How would you ha ...

I don't understand why when newbies ask valid questions they are answered by rude know it alls who have 5+ years' experience and think they are much better than someone just starting out. We all used to be newbies. I have 20+ years' experience and I do not think I know everything. I learn something new everyday and am willing to help anyone who needs help. Also, MTs that complain their hands hurt from editing all day, try straight transcribing all day long without usin ...

Always 3-4 emails after a week's worth of work with the 'corrections'. It is frustrating because I cannot hear what they say was dictated! If I am so bad at this, why keep me?? Although, who knows, maybe other people are getting more emails than I am. Of course, this was an account the TSM was so angry with our group because we "only" scored 99.5% accuracy and thus failed our audit. Can't wait until I am outta here! ...

with this. Almost daily now I am getting email saying mandatory OT. I know this is great and should not complain as we could all use more money but I do this PT for a reason and have a jammed pack scheduled around my work schedule. If time allows, I will gladly do it but I am starting to feel stressed out about these daily emails. Do you all work every MANDATORY OT or do you ignore, just wondering because I really do not want to call my whatever she is called these days.& ...

if they review at all of our work but because most are 100 percent, they don't upload to Fiesa, just choose ones with 99 percent or below and occasionally throw in one that is 100 percent to make it look good!! I do NOT trust anythng they do and would not put it past them. We have no way of listening to even make sure that what they audit us on is accurate. I am so paranoid that I think they may even change things that we type to make it an error! So disgusted..... ...

Since Audits are affecting us so deeply at this point and possibly costing us our livelihood, I began to wonder WHO is doing the auditing? We have lost most of the decent QA people (or will as of tomorrow when nothing will be routed to QA anymore). I know that several of the CTLs, CCMs or whatever the acronym of the hour is currently called, have been morons and sent out E-mails filled with grammatical and punctuation errors, and some have not even been MTs before. Shouldn ...

Back in April I sent 2 charts to QA. They were both audited. You think those charts were chosen at random? I passed with 99-100%, but it's still the principle of it all that gets to me! ...

Since July 1, I have had over 40 documents with over 1800 lines audited. I'm curious to know if other Nuance MTs have had a similar experience and a similar volume of audits. ...

Alas, our 99.6% audits are no longer being done by our local BOB QA person but by an official MModal auditing team. I wonder if they are as illiterate as the Mmodal corporate types. Happy Halloween, now that's scary. Kind of makes me picture the 3 witches in Macbeth, toiling over a pot of our work, creating mayhem. ...

Does anyone else feel the assignment of error scores are excessive? Do you get major errors for things that should be minor? So disheartening. ...

Is it just me or is there less auditing being done?? Probably the calm before the storm. I had gotten so used to nasty emails every one but haven't had any at all which is really unusual. ...

My community college offers this course and I would like to take it. ...

Seriously, the only person I trusted for corrections was my QC. If they are not going to be doing the audits, who is? MMEs are just upper grade MTs who were suckered into working for less pay. MModal has fired/laid off/chased off most of their competent MTs. I can hardly wait until I get my first (and probably last) required audit. A 99.6% accuracy requirement from this company of corporate incompetents is hysterically funny. ...

Guess they are planning on upping the amount of QA they do. Memo listed 6 open QA jobs. You can bet they are going to try to keep us in the lower section on that grid if possible. ...

Just wondering if it's worth the transition in this company or if I should get away from Scruance entirely. (I love that word. Thank you to the original author.) To me, the fact that they are advertising for MANY auditors is extremely telling. I don't buy the 1% to 2% of a day's reports being audited. I think it will be much higher than that in order to SCREW us even more. ...

Late last week I recieved an email communication about how they will only audit reports that were transcribed/edited during the current work week, only to log on this morning (I'm off Fri and Sat, so Sun morning is the 1st day of my week) to find that I had a post audit score below 99% that was audited on Saturday, so obviously it was edited last week sometime. If I don't start my week until Sunday, how on earth can they audit a report on Saturday that was submitted the week prio ...

Up until now (12 years with this company) I have not failed an audit, always 99% or above, and they do an audit once a month on my accounts plus the client audits. We recently were given "helper" accounts for 2 days when our work got low and I was more than happy to help out, as always. There were many difficult ESL dictators and complicated CPs. I did not think they chose reports from unfamiliar "helper" accounts to do their monthly audits as it had never happened to me before, but I was ...

I have had 6 (SIX!) reports come through, all having the same mush-mouthed, fast talking, whispering, ESL doctor. Oh, and the sing-song thing is really about to make me blow my stack. I swear, he is so bad that I can't even understand the patient's name!!!! I am going to pull my hair out. Yep, I feel it coming. It takes me forever just to get through ONE of his reports. He gets so many blanks that I honestly feel sorry for the QA person that end ...

Working at .075 cpl for ScribeRight I made a whopping 12K in 2009. Wow - let's all run out and take MT classes to jump on that bandwagon. Anyway, I quit my MTSO pimp and went to work for a well-known Italian restaurant chain in 2010. I work in the kitchen 6 hours a day for 5 days a week (Mon-Fri lunch shift with no nighttime or weekend shifts) and make about 15% more than I did as an MT. I am not an IC anymore but rather an employee, so I saved a bunch on my social ...

My bubble has been burst. I was with eTransPlus when the Q swallowed them up and then I left. Now, I'm with another MTSO and it's awful. I've only been MTing for 5 years. I was an office nurse (LPN) for 13 years before that and I wanted a change. My first job was with a great company and then the huge acct I was on was bought out by an MTSO, so I had the choice of being laid off or going to IC status. I chose to be laid off thinking I could draw ...

I just cannot do this anymore with MMmodal. I cannot sit here for 14 hours a day for 800 lines. I am completely broke, have no food in the house, and am more depressed than I have ever been in my entire life. I'm in a constant state of panic, have been sending out applications and resumes, but am so far in the hole financially I will never get out. I just don't understand how a company can do this to people and live with what they are doing. I cannot even ...

Reading these posts, watching women post about how to work the system to keep their piddly minimum wage/unemployment coming in while MM finds yet another way to screw us over. It makes me sick to think of what we have become. The experience we have, the expertise we are still expected to have, and yet we sit here discussing how to keep getting our minimum freakin wage. Do you not all see how WRONG THIS IS? All we do is complain, or let them beat us down until we quit. How is i ...

The endless berating of my work and the poverty level wages that go with it are more than I can deal with anymore. I'd take a job doing most anything to get out of this drudgery. Unfortunately with years of doing this, it's hard to even get a job at a hamburger joint! ...

2 in 1 day: VR: scrotal tenderness s/b: throat tenderness (the patient was female!) VR: no tomatoes s/b: no organomegaly I have to laugh at this job or else I'll cry. Geez! ...

I sometimes watch the boards and see number of people discontent with Nuance and looking for something else . In the back of my mind is "maybe they leave and I will get more work." Feel bad having this attitude, but ... WHen this grid started out I was making significantly more than I had been. Now of course the OOW situation has put a stop to that. I also think QA has gotten a little more aggressive towards us. We are turning on each other like a pack of wolves. ...

Now in addition to monthly audits, we are receiving WEEKLY audits so they can pick through our work and find more "errors!" Got dinged for semicolon, dash, and even word that was not clear at all, but it is being "verified" and if "they" (whoever "they" are) can figure it out, I will be held accountable for that also!!! What is going on here?? ...

How do you search anything on here anymore? If I want to check past posts on a particular company, etc.? Did they do away with that? If so I don't think that was a great idea. I like to be able to look up info here by doing searchs of old posts first to see if my questions were already answered. I don't want to waste someones time if they just answered the same question last week, etc. Can I still do a search and if so how? Thanks! ...

Constant auditing until can't even work anymore - Fed UP

They probably are, sad to say - sm

If this is one of the "nicest & kindest" companies, - that sure doesnt say much for the rest. (sm)

I read it as sarcasm (nm) - anon
