Pre-edited test but really messed up - Julie


Posted: Feb 04, 2010

Hello All,

Hoping someone can help me figure out what happened with this job.  I received a STAT job from my main account, it had clearly been done by someone else, but it was so screwed up, it took me almost 25 minutes to redo 352 secs of dictation.  The sound was no longer in sync with dictation, punctuation was confusing, headings were wrong and not in place with dictation.  I have whole paragraphs in the transcription that I do not hear anywhere in the dictation. 

Anyone ever receive a job like this? 

Just a guess - shipwrecked

It sounds like you got the second half of a split report. I had one of those and it drove me nuts. I couldn't get my audio to match where I was working, and every time I took my foot off the pedal, my cursor went to the bottom of the page. There was a whole paragraph of text that wasn't even dictated, which I finally just deleted.

They abandoned the stupid job, don't you love your cowokers NOT! - BUNION

I HATE PEOPLE. They sux. But they leave you this "crap" because you are "good." Ya ya ya ya that does not pay the bills. I have finaly got fed up but I (IMHO) was told I was the only one who touched the report. Bullcrap, if I, me complains. I see the job numbers, etc. Peeps throw them back, do not sign off as they are supposed to (in my company). COME ON PEOPLE I HAVE HAD 3 REPORTS TO RETURN IN A ROW) oh, what a conicenence (but if you are in a certain "club" it don't matter). I HATE being new!

Same Pay Rate For Edited & Transcribed Lines?
Jan 26, 2012

My employer has recently gone from straight transcription to VR (using MedQuist's DocQSpeech). At this point, after 4 months on VR, production is up 11% overall.  The employer says they believe it will go up 48% overall (60% for VR lines, no change of course for transcribed lines, 80% of lines VR). At this point, indeed, at least 80% of lines are VR.  (The quality of the VR output, however, is pretty bad.) We're union, and I'm one of the MTs participating in the wage ...

Dell Support Messed Up My Computer
Aug 11, 2013

Last Tuesday, I was going to install McAfee Anti-Virus on my computer.  To do that, I first had to remove Microsoft Security Essentials from my computer.  I couldn't see Microsoft SE on the list of programs in Add/Remove, so I regrettably decided to call Dell support (I have a Dell computer.)  So instead of simply removing Microsoft SE and installing McAfee (which should only take about 1 hour, if one is a technical expert), nothing was resolved.  Instead, my computer i ...
