I'm working exactly as I have been.  As we all should.

In fear of having my post yanked, I'll just abbreviate the subject header and you can guess what it means.

I just read the email Rietkerk sent and just thought 'Whatever'.

I'm not gunning to win a prize because my only goal is to complete as many reports as I can during my shift so my paycheck doesn't reflect that I work at Mickey D's. Heck, working there would be more profitable than working for MModal at this point for me.

BTW, I just completed (or more like endured) my 90 days with the company, and while the quality is up to standard, my LPH needs to increase or else I'll be placed on 'corrective action process' mode by next pay period. Oh joy.

Enjoy your weekend, folks.

Everyone with a pulse is on "corrective action" - at this salt mine. nm

Popularity Contests?
Nov 08, 2011

Are these companies just testing their popularity when they send out ads supposedly wanting to hire transcriptionists?  I send them my resume and then take their tests, never to hear from them again!  I've even sent emails trying to follow up and still no reply!  The latest was DTS in Oklahoma.  As soon as I finished their test, a line popped up immediately saying I would not fit with DTS.  Give me a break, the test was easy, anyone could pass it.  Supposedly s ...

Participating In Essay Contests
May 05, 2013

I know that many of you need extra money but when you participate in things like company essay contests you demean and degrade MTs and what we do.  We are not high school students required to do what the teacher tells us.  We are adult employees who should not be asked to grovel for a chance to win a $100 gift certificate.  This is a way for this despicable company to get free marketing material without having to pay a copywriter to produce it.  ...


Transcend And Games
May 20, 2010

I am tired of Transcend sending out ridiculous puzzle games.  Do you want us to work or spent 30-40 minutes solving puzzles for a bone?  The lastest one is match up these facts with your Team Lead.  They posted interesting (well not very) facts about themselves like, "I like to sing"  "I have a cat" blah blah and we have to guess who it is.  How about this.  1.  I hate my job. 2.  I don't care about my Team Lead's life all that much. 3. ...


Transcend Games

I used to really take pride in my job and enjoy it.  Not so anymore.   I am just counting the days until I can get out of this sinking profession.  So Transcend, I don't want to play your games.  I don't care about the "football challenge."  I don't care about the biggest producer contest.  I don't care about your SOS calls.  I don't care about your hot spots.   I don't care about TAT.  I used to care, but ...

FIESA Games Used To Downsize

So, I'm not really asking for a show of hands here, but have you been "moved" in the last 2, 3 weeks or so to a hospital account in the upper northwest part of the country that is rather a booger-bear to learn? It is INTENTIONAL, you will be FIESA'd to death if you are not already. (You were likely told that they need you there because it is a difficult account to keep staffed, at least that is what they told the last person). Just warning you. Be on the lookout for that one plan ...

Fill In The Gaps Games
Jun 12, 2015

Well here we go again, fill in the gaps games in our POD.  Nope, no way, and if they change my schedule one more time to any later in the day, I'm gone.  Done playing their games.  Hire more people, stop demanding mandatory OT, and give actual bonuses and this would not be a problem.  P.S. Don't expect me to cover other "groupings" gaps.  I already work the weekend and late Friday night (still working), only have 1 full day off a week.  No threats to "chan ...

ExpressScribe Won't Play A Wav File
Jun 29, 2012

I can load it into the dock, but it says there are 0 minutes of dictation. If I play it on Windows Media, it says I need a codec. I don't know what that is. If I right click the file, I see it has 2 minutes of dictation on it. Why won't it play? I've tried opening it in several other places, and it just won't work. This is the free version. I've played dozens of files before. ...

Express Scribe Will NOT Play DSS Files!
Jun 24, 2012

I am upgrading to a new computer finally with Windows 7 and IE9.  I was thrilled when everything was loading up fine-but the new version of Express Scribe will NOT play DSS files!  I have a USB-1 pedal, but this new free version they have insists on us buying their $70 pedal OR their Pro version of Express scribe for $30 (on sale).  I am furious!  Anyone get this newer version to work w/o buying anything?  Thanks in advance! ...

I am typing ds2 files and am using the above player which the olympus representative said was created to play ds2 files.  however, I have tried taken the file from the place it was sent to me and it seemed to import into Folder A.  But the file never could be seen in Folder A or the transcriptionist Tray.  I did this many many many times with the same result.  The Olympus rep told me to go to the message folder and copy and paste it into Folder A.  I then could see it in ...

Synernet Testing.. Can't Get Voice Files To Play
Jun 10, 2015

One of those MTtest sites.  Called their help desk and they said a lot of people have trouble, not to worry and try this.   I tried that.  Nothing.  They said to call back and they would work it out.  I don't know if this is worth it.  The testing portions were fine, went quickly but just trying to get the transcription part up is time consuming and frustrating.  Anyone else have problems with this? ...
