Service sector workers not eligible as of 2014 - sm
[ In Reply To ..]
Government made a reversion to the TAA eligibility groups for 2014. Now only manufacturing sector jobs fall under the TAA program. I originally applied for TAA in March before the old petition expired (and got approved for schooling starting the end of this month) and filed the extension. I am sad it did not get approved so more MTs could have used the program.
I am - also

out of that place and almost have a year in school. I feel bad for people, but they should have applied a long time ago. I did it while I was still working and started school and worked. Now I am laid off and almost halfway through school.

Denied!!! Mar 20, 2014Good luck to those of you accepted to the program. I did not make it - my A and P score was too low compared to others (had an 82). I did think my coding certificate would help make up for my low score. Best wishes, hope the program is successful. ...

May 26, 2015I am a very experienced MT who never leaves blanks unless the dictators us just plain undecipherable, which was the case with one ESL idiot who was such a poor dictator I had to leave about 25 blanks. I struggled with this jerk's utterances (can't call them actual words) for an HOUR, replaying over and over, trying to figure out what he MEANT to say.

She sent me a note, then cc'd my e-mail to my state director. Here are their responses:

Save Your Job- Sign This Petition Nov 20, 2012As many of you know, EMR companies charge fees upwards of 15,000 dollars to allow transcription companies to integrate with them. This barrier to entry will lead to us all being replaced by voice recognition or point and click unless we all do something.
There is no reason transcriptionists can not co-exist with EMR's. Doctors still need someone to type their records up for them. It is simply a faster and a more efficient use of resources to keep us in the loop. Eliminating these EMR fees ...

This would include the need for wage standards including a minimum wage mandate as well as the offshoring problem and how it is affecting our economy as well as us, f ...
