I DO NOT want to make anyone mad....

I seem to be spending an awful lot of time in VR documents, so I am confused as to why I am getting paid less for them. This stupid VR system types whatever it thinks it might be hearing and sometimes doesn't type anything at all. I hate this VR. I am up to 1800 lines but usually do 2200-2500 a day on straight transcription. I don't know how I am going to feed my children. I am a single mom and the head of household. Believe me the child support isn& ...

And do they get bonuses based on TAT? have always been curious about this. There was a time when I made more per year than an asst. supervisor (back at my co. before MQ bought us out). Of course that is not the case anymore. Any educated guesses? ...

$15 an hour on a daily basis. I am in a horrific job right now (outside of my home) and need to make at least what I am making now which is about $15 an hour for a total of $97 a day. I know transcription is tough nowadays, but if I go back to MT, do you think I can make at least that on a daily basis? ...

around $1,000/month part-time in this industry? ...

I've been working with this company for over 90 days. The first 90 days was a paid internship. Paid hourly, minimum wage. I am now a full time employee...paid on production. However, I can not even seem to make minimum wage while on production pay! It is driving me nuts and is very discouraging. I'm not sure where to point the finger. I worked 8 hours, only took one 20 minute break to eat. Over those 8 hours, according to the employers data base, I did around 1200 lin ...

I'm not sure if this has been brought up before ... or if this is one of those taboo subjects.. :) But what do you make per month as an MT and how many hours per week do you work to achieve that? I'm just feeling like I can/should up my game a bit and thought this may be an encouraging way to get that push I need. :) ...

Anyone every get fired from Nuance for MUP? ...

What do you think they will do to get rid of me? I am really worried now, reading about all these terminations. ...

Okay, I'm waaaay behind the times. I have been doing straight transcription for 35 years and am about to switch to VR editing at 0.45 cents per line. Good Grief. Can I make any money doing this?? My straight transcription accounts have all switched over about 80% of their work to VR and left all the truly terrible dictators on straight. ...

Apparently the account I work on will be going completely offshore. I am being moved to an account that I know has work (at least for now, not sure how many others will be switched to this one too). I have to wonder though when will be the point when accounts go offshore and people are just fired. While people do quit, is it enough to ensure there is still work stateside. I have things that need to be taken care of. New tires, new brakes, a new refrigerator, etc.&n ...

after doing report after report? Most of the reports I do are long, and there are so many incorrect words, looking at the mess that makes so sense, following along with the words, and correcting literally makes me nauseated. I feel like my eyeballs are crossed trying to focus in where the dictator is which is hard when the words I see are not the words I hear. Sure can tell a transcriptionist had no part in developing this crap. I have ...

After celebrating having no make-up pay last paycheck, I have an absolutely horrific amount of make-up pay this paycheck. The difference?????? Cesspool, a lot of bad audio and even worse ASR output than the normal terrible output. Got told today that my minor error rate is above metrics. They apparently have decided to inflict that on us now, despite the fact that I have passed every audit. They have also been auditing us every day. Gotta measure every bit they can think of! Oh what ...

to save my life! ...

Didn't MQ make the CTL's become MME's? If that happens to the MT's and you reject it, I assume you will be fired and if so, can you still collect unemployment? What if you they point blank and say, you have to become an MME or you will have look elsewhere. Can you somehow collect unemployment whether you quit or get fired or will you lose out unemployment benefits. Basically, it is a no win situation for us MT's? ...

He does s/l weigh with the natural resting position to external rotation. ...

long day and not sure this all sounds correct. tia. MRI scan does show a complete tear of the supraspinatus portion of the rotator cuff with a retracted tendon. It also shows a partial tear of the subscapularis tendon and transverse humeral ligament. There is also splitting of the biceps tendon in the glenohumeral joint. He has an anterior/inferior labral tear and some paralabral cysts, and severe degenerative changes in the acromioclavicular joint and some degenerativ ...

I have worked as a radiology transcriptionist for over ten years . My pay has been cut in half and jobs are hard to find. I take tests and no one calls back. I usually only have their email anyway. I am now learning acute care because it seems for last few years it has been the only game in town. However, I cannot believe how hard it is and I am getting paid the same as radiology. It's becoming impossible to afford to live on this income, but I ...

How do you make expansions. I know F4 is to turn it off and on but how do you make new ones, I am having stress which makes my brain malfunction. ...

I agree that the MT biz has become extremely hard and frustrating, but I am copying and pasting something I read below because if I had responded to that, it would have been lost, as messages don't get updated on this board, and I would like other's opinions. "You are absolutely right. I had worked for a couple of other good companies before going back to MQ, and found that the "experience" I got from MQ was not very good at all. The new companies followed the Book of Style 3, w ...

Poster below crows about how much money they make with VR. What are these big bucks, you struggling VR people ask? Poster states they clear $1000 a pay period--A whole $24,000 a year! THOSE ARE THE BIG BUCKS?????? Sad, truly, truly sad. ...

Hypertension ocular losses. is that right?? does it make sense?? ...

Okay fellow MT'ers. Gestapo measures are in place nationwide as I see it. Just informed by MTSO that since the new platform is going to be so wonderful, that I will be able to double or triple my production, (Right!!!) hence I will be getting 2 cents a line less for speech. Okay, as an IC , I pay all all own expenses, SS, equipment, internet, (HIPAA room), utilities, electronic and book references, education, wrists, fingers, feet and toes, so take another ...

Have ya ever wondered, WHY is it that we get "audited" when we are having really, really bad work days? Why does the "computer randomly chose" (ha!) the most difficult, awful report to review? My latest audit was on a dictator I had NEVER EVER DONE before, on a brand spanking new account, was 1098 minutes and ASR and ESL! I got an 84%. (Hey! as far as I'm concerned that should have been an A+++!! Least I gave them something that looked like a report.) I a ...

The doc is saying " This PI (hear as PI, not sure what it is) is a 9-year-old white male who is in good health and ( I hear it is cola, after the and, could it be colon?) earlier this am when he presented quick complaints with headache, fever, chills _____ ( hear as provia)for next to his nausea and vomiting ____ ( hear as " times wound). Looks like I cannot get on in this field much longer, if I hear to doctors transcribing this way. Please help! ...

I get soo uncomfortable sitting for at least 8 hours every day. My right arm and hand just ache/sore constantly, and my fingers, especially on my right hand, are really getting painful. I sit with my keyboard on my lap (on a pillow), sit with a pillow underneath and behind me. My heel even hurts from using the foot pedal. I'm wondering if a left hand keyboard would work for me, or an ergonomic. I've used an ergonomic before (it broke) and didn't recal ...
