What happened to 08/25/13 maintenance? - on the chopping block
Posted: Aug 25, 2013
Don't tell me things are working so well they don't need it!
Didn't they do it? I signed off for it assuming it would happen. - usual post maintenance notice not on DQM.

They better have had it. Hate having to forfeit hours or more of my weekend every couple weeks.
Did they do it? - Draculaura

I had copied and pasted maintenance downtime info from DQM earlier that day for August 25 from 12 a.m. to 3 a.m., and they did do it.

yes, we did have maintenance downtime from 12 a.m. to 3 a.m. EST on August 25.
BUT I WAS WORKING AND MAKING LINES - on the chopping block
When did this get scheduled? Just noticed it.

I lost the printout I had of the dates--I know it was something like just about every other week--and was suprised by tonight's maintenance. Oops. Thanks in advance! ...
I'm in PST (pacific standard). I was thinking this BST could mean mountain time? BUT, the time isn't correct, 5 am Eastern time wouldn't be 10 am mountain time...Hmmm. Let me guess....is BST a time zone in INDIA????
I know, I know, so what's my point. Sorry, don't have one. Just sayin....... ...
Just wondering if they are still going to do the maintenance. I would think not because of yesterday, but you'd think they'd take the note off the website. ...
I work on Saturday second shift on the west coast, so their Sunday EST maintenance period falls at 9 pm on Saturday night here. I've got other things to do on Saturday day than start work several hours early every single every other weekend. I've got a social life too. ...
I just wondered...has anyone ever made a mistake on a report (which was your fault and you readily admit you screwed up) and get an email stating: please explain why you made that mistake because the client is waiting for an explanation??!!! WTH? Yes, I purposely made that error because I wanted too? I enjoy making critical errors?
My error was most likely a keystroke error that I failed to catch..I admit it. I try to be as careful as possible but I am human. ...
I started my bartending class yesterday.. first time I have done anything outside the house in 7 years.
I was terrified. I don't think I really realized how isolating and stressful working for the Q at home really was. I had almost forgotten what it was like to interact with real people, doing something that was real and down to earth.
But I had a wonderful time, terrified though I was. I still feel like I've been totally reborn, and I am so relieved to be out of th ...
I just to recently switched to a whole new region, supervisor and QA supervisor with 3 days notice because of ONE particular account I transcribe on. I had been typing the previous accounts for over 5 years. Since the switch two weeks ago, I have now TEN new accounts that I type for with all new CP's, set-ups and dictators; however, I have noted AT ALL the account for which I had previously typed which was the reason I was transferred in the first place!! Furthermore, there& ...
DocQScribe froze trying to download next report. Tried to check Q E-mail while I was waiting and it is "not available." Am I the last to know something? ...
Occasionally when I'm doing an ASR report and insert a QA marker the yellow cursor marker will go away and the cursor goes to the end of the report. Then I have to scroll back through the report to find my place and if I lift my foot off the foot pedal it happens again. Does anyone know how to fix this? It's irritating on a really long report. TIA. ...
(I am not a "suit." :-) )
I would like to know from some of you what is the going rate now (really) for lines per hour or hourly pay and if there are even steady hours anymore. I just can't believe that this "profession" has gone downhill so much and downhill so quickly in even the last 5 years. I wonder what the next 5 years will look like or if there will even be MTs? If anyone has left the "profession" because they just can't make a living doing this anymore, what are you doing n ...
that was just on there earlier and now it's gone? I was going to send an email, came back to get the address and the posting is gone. Must have hired someone already? ...
When I signed on this morning, I pulled down 3 reports. I did the first one and went back to find just one left. What happened to the other report? Please let me know if you know. Thanks ...
to DF with MDI? Is she still there somewhere on board with Nuance. Wonder what she thinks about all of this, not that it really matters at this point, just curious... ...
You are made part time because you can't make full time line counts due to low work volumes, then when you go part time, you are given more accounts? ...
Used to work there but have been gone awhile and have been gone from these boards just as long. Did they finally shut down??
My second question .. is there ANYONE out there still hiring radiology transcriptionists or has every radiology job out there been sold out to PowerScribe? ...
That is when I got a new CSM and they said they were "restructuring" and some CSMs were going to deal only with MTs and some only with customers. My new CSM said her old MTs were always running out of work because THEY said the average MT could do "x amount" of dictation and most of hers could do twice that, and so when she got the "new-to-her" MTs and accounts, then we all started running out of work. ...
Hi all. Is SGS still an MT company? Did it get sold? Did it change to coding only? Does anyone know?
Thanks in advance for anything you can tell me.

Having been at this job for only five months, I've noticed certain new behaviors in myself that can only be attributed to the stressors of this job:
Insomnia
Stress eating
Stress drinking
Stress shopping
I know have to eliminate some of the above behaviors in order to attain a state of well-being. I have to thank god that I inherited my mom's pension after she passed away, because if it weren't for her pension supplementing my income, I would have told MModal to ...
