In regard to training Indians to take our jobs: Here's one: (sm) - Sick of it


Posted: Dec 10, 2014

Throat:  The patient is a horse.  It's NOT the VR.

The million dollar question is - What can you do about it?

Yup - Nothing

I remember back in 2005 when I was in the QA Dept of "one of the biggies." Yup, we were told to give feedback to the Indians. If we didn't, we got in deep stuff. I was being paid a handsome salary then (20+ per hour, 40-hr work week), so I had to do what I was told. When they cut my pay from hourly to low line rate, I left the biggie and went somewhere smaller and nicer. Of course, the smaller and nicer place got eaten up by the biggie, and that's when I quit MT for good. That was back in 2012.

the Indians are not "taking" jobs anymore than - anon

I noticed Nuisance has a number of MT openings 4 pages and 3 out of the 4 pages are all for India positions!

HIT Training But No Jobs - Should Have Studied Pure Coding
May 11, 2015

We all learn from our mistakes. Some of us just take longer.  After bumbling around for several years with HIT training, etc., it's time to get serious and go for a coding certificate.  What a waste these past several years have been and still not even close to being prepared for a CCS or a job as a coder.  Starting over again but doing it right this time. In order to get a coding job, you need that CCS. The rest was just filling in time and wasting money. ...

Was/were In Regard To Liquid Measurements
Apr 21, 2011

So I'm not completely clear on this.  I know liquid measurements are grammatically to be treated singly--"20 mL of normal saline was given."  My question is whether this applies when it's not necessarily a liquid measurement but is currently applied to a liquid.  The sentence is "Then, 4000 units of heparin [was/were] given."  I want to pick 'were', mainly because 'was' sounds wrong and 'units' are not a solely liquid measurement like m ...


Thank You, Indians. I Owe You Big Time.
Aug 26, 2010

Because of your greed and attempt to cut our throats, I decided I should not be supporting any Indians, Pakistani, etc., who are here in the US, legal or otherwise.   Most of the cigarette stores where I live are owned/operated by Indians and Pakistani.  They are about $15.00 a carton cheaper than the groceries.   So rather than give one more penny to a class of people I now despise, I quit smoking.  You did me a big favor.  ...


The Indians Should Not Be Transcribing

What The Indians Earn
Mar 25, 2013

I've been looking at exchange rates as well as information on salaries for MTs in India trying to figure out what they are earning.  As best I can tell, a rupee is worth about 2 cents.  If my math is correct, a starting MT is earing about $160/month.  I cannot find any information as to their line rate.  If anyone has better math skills (and it would not be difficult) please correct me.  At that rate, you can see why they want all the work to go to India.  Even ...

Just Another Vent About Jobs, No Jobs, Requirement Of Jobs, Etc.
Aug 18, 2010

It is insulting to all of us with the way that MT pay has gone down the drain, it is frustrating and aggravating to look for a "decent" job these days, trying to work out which companies will treat you fairly, which ones lie about their platforms, work, etc., and not only do these companies not want to pay us what we are worth but now I see that MANY companies are requiring the MT to have or "be willing" to purchase hundreds of dollars worth of equipment.  If an employer can PROMISE IN ...
