Wal-Mart commercial - "a raise in pay raises us all." Hey MModal listen up!

fire MTs and keep demanding more OT. As I have stated before, 99.5% is NOT about quality, it is about cutting pay and getting us to work even more cheaply. ...

Does any MTSO do this? I mean, either an annual cost of living raise or a merit raise based on a regular annual review. Or both. If none of the above, are you able to just ask your boss for a raise when you feel it's appropriate? Does it work? ...

I've been having this problem recently. Whenever I'm on computer, whether it be looking at a website, reading email, etc., I will intermittently have commercial ads (audio) play in the background. I've had my ISP do tune-ups and malaware/virus removal twice in the last two days. Today, after being on Internet for 30 minutes, there it was again; a commercial for ice cream. How can I work listening to dictations with commercials playing at the same time? Does anyone know what is goi ...

Has anyone used RFP Mart to gain vendors for MT accounts? Any info would be appreciated. Please just those who are familiar with them. Thanks- ...

I live in California and just now my husband called my attention to the TV. Sokolove Law LLC (ambulance chasers, usually one of those "If you or someone you know has taken the drug..." commercials) is advertising for anyone being hired as an independent contractor yet treated as an employee with an expected scheduled, etc., should call them to pursue their legal entitlements. Once the pharmaceutical ambulance chasers get on the subject of IC versus employee, I have a suspicion things are gonna ...

Well after being in this business for almost 20 years, I have decided it's time to hang up the keyboard, as a single person I can no longer support myself as a medical transcriptionist. This is not even a good part-time job anymore. I have worked for more companies than I cared to admit, suffered through intolerable divas as team leads, gestapo QA, constant nip picking on where a comma goes, or a verb, and had my cpl reduced from what started out at 13 cpl to 0.0350 cpl.&n ...

Went to Wal Mart and bought a new keyboard. It is a Logitech. The keys are not flushed and flat. The keys on the one sent with my computer were so close together that I couldn't tell which key I was hitting. This one is much better. ...

I have been working for a compnay since 12/2007. In that period of time I have worked multiple accounts, learned multiple new software systems and have always gone above and beyond - working over/extra to ensure we stay in our TAT. In the 5-1/2 years I have been working for them, I have not had a single line rate increase. Is this the normal? ...

Anybody who is a QC ever ask for a raise? I got promoted to a QC from an MLS within Nuance. They estimated my rate by averaging my lines per hour, then adding $2 to it as my rate for being a QC. I've been at that rate only 7 months, but see lots of posts here about people being offered jobs in QC at $13 an hour and that is more than I make. Should I ask about a raise? Has anybody ever had luck asking for one? ...

I have a question for all you MTs out there. I have been with the same company for 8 years now and am still making the same cpl as I was when I was hired. Is this the norm? I would think a raise should be in order at some point. I am very reliable, always make production or over production, very accurate. Just kinda feeling unloved! LOL! ...

After being at a company 2 1/2 years, does anyone thing it is acceptable to email and ask the company for a raise? ...

Has anybody asked their company for a raise within the last year and gotten one ? Just curious. ...

Is anyone else fed up with the fact that the wages for MTs never go up? It has been the same low rate for years! ...

I am finally leaving the broken world of transcription vending to become an independent contractor once again. I am so very fortunate enough to have benefits through my husband's employer, so it's the pay I am really missing. Is it unreasonable to put a raise in the contract? The hospital basically told me they are not contracting for as much $ as they used to (yet another slap in the face of my career), and kind of hinted that raises are a joke. When I follow ...

See (lol), anyone can come up with a Shock and Awe type of title/campaign to get peoples attention to read their post. I mean really, Spyware?!?? Give me a break Pete. It was just about as silly and borderline slanderous as your post! Monitoring keystrokes goes back to the inception of computers being used in transcription. THESE REPORTS WERE DESIGNED TO HELP...END STORY Look,companies hire and they lay off, its never pretty. I am sure that the layoff was unavoidable as MTSO's are not into ...

Maybe you are new and think they will. Maybe you are old and think they will. They won't. Maybe they don't use this tactic anymore, but when I was there it was "Give Yourself A Raise." That meant produce more. They don't give raises. Don't waste your time E-mailing anybody. Get mad. Sure. Even quit, find yourself a better career. But don't hold your breath. There will be no raises. They don't need you ...

We no longer care anymore. You keep beating us down with your nitpicking on our reports. The ultimate disgrace to our profession is marking us off for leaving a blank and QA filling it in. WE NO LONGER CARE. Your company has ruined this profession. I hope that everyone knows what kind of creeps you really are. ...

I bet I'm not alone. Your new pay plan is cruel. I would rather miss out on having a quarterly bonus and getting emotionally destroyed once in a quarter rather than every single day. PLEASE RETHINK THIS PAY PLAN IMMEDIATELY BEFORE MORE GOOD MTs LEAVE. Believe me, we really don't want to leave, but who on God's green earth would want to be emotionally abused on a daily basis? Ask yourself this. Would I want my son, daughter, brother, sister, father or mother being treated this ...

that maybe 2012 will be the year that the elephant in the room, OFFSHORING AMERICAN JOBS, and the perks which companies get for doing so, will finally get a spotlight thrown upon it: ...

I listened to the meeting. At least I get paid my hourly rate. ...

This doctor is absolutely disgusting. I have umpteen jobs for him and he is constantly coughing and snorting up his snot. I can't take it any more. It is so gross. He sounds like a snorting PIG. On top of that, he's constantly forcefully flipping through the pages of the chart and it must be right near the microphone because it feels like it's going to break my eardrums. All I can do is keep calling him nasty names...he's such an idiot, jer ...

The MTs on my account have constantly complained about 1 doctor on VR who does not belong there!! We are simply typing his reports for the lesser pay. We have complained directly to our supervisor about it and nothing has been done because we do not send the reports to QA. Certainly, you can understand what he is saying, that is not the problem. The problem is he will not speak in complete sentences, and spells everything, so how can you send this to QA? It signific ...

The site I used to go to does not exist, and the DocQManage site only has statistics, QA submitted reports and client profile look up. There are several disagreements I have with what I was marked off for. It is so aggravating. I should have added a word (which has no effect on the meaning of the sentence. I should not have included a word (which, again, has no effect on the meaning and was dictated. Then, there is the is that "should have been changed" to are which does change the me ...

for example, even though the dictator is obviously finished, so you upload...but if you don't listen to the very last millisecond the report will autopend and that will count against your QC. I think this happened to me several times when I knew I didn't pend anything but it showed I did. ...

Memo promised all those high producers who were making the incentive grade would be compensated in the form of a raise...anbody here get one? ...

Just curious if anyone took the time to see what he had to say about the Spheris acquisition or if anyone cares. ...
