anybody else get a laugh from the press announcement? - still laughing

Posted: May 09, 2012

OOOHH. Big announcement today, join us. For what? DocQscribe just renamed? Forgive me if I am not excited, sounds like a disappointing regift to me. In fact, it is probably better they change it to Fluency or whatever because on my new MM computer sent for the upgrade to DocQscribe 7 they spelled the program as DoQscribe. No kidding. Be on the watch out for more pictures of corporate parties I am sure because to some people this is a big deal. However, I am working on the new DocQscribe 7 and it is nothing to brag home about, I would rename it too.

chaning the name has not changed the product - now, has it?

Could seriously be called MModal Fluencey Crap and no one would know the difference!

By the way, how is being told something the same day it happens "improved communications?"

Not to mention, when we MTs said we wanted - sm

improved communication, we meant we want our CCM to answer our emails occasionally! Not that we want to hear about the latest corporate celebration or corporate waste of money.... I think they completely misunderstood, LOL.

I guess we shouldn't pick on the name change. After all, we probably paid for the think tank whose job it is to come up with stupid new names for everything so potential investors don't look at the long and tainted history of this ever sinking, but paradoxically unsinkable ship.

I laughed because... - crank

...the press release reads like it's New! Improved! Tech! whereas the email hastens to assure the nervous that we're not switching platforms, it's still the same-old-same-old. Nice free lesson in corporate spin.

Well, call me an idiot. But unless they review another report for the payperiod I will be under the 99 for 2 weeks in a row. Have been hitting the required mark for weeks on end, but...

Does this qualify you for action plan or anything. Or is it 3 strikes and you are out? ...

Could have saved myself some weekend anxiety. The 877 call in number was Medquist. The CEO tremored through the whole accounce of the buyout. HUH eat my foot they will recognize and keep everything intact. When I asked for Federal Leave when Q bought Spheris they would NOT recognize my time. eTrans made an "error" last pay taking away all my PTO. The sweaty CEO has a bad conscious because eTrans will make as much as MTs in India. Now I know what the Plus in Etrans stood for. ...

What a bunch of nonsense. They wait until well into their smoke and mirrors BS to say that they lost two accounts and had to let people go. Guaranteed they knew the accounts were gone a while ago--seen this with them before, and the decent thing would have been to warn people--but there seems to be no decency here any longer in how management conducts itself.

"A weak labor market already has left half of young college graduates either jobless or underemployed in positions that don't fully use their skills and knowledge. Young adults with bachelor's degrees are increasingly scraping by in lower-wage jobs — waiter or waitress, bartender, retail clerk or receptionist, for example — and that's confounding their hopes a degree would pay off despite higher tuition and mounting student loans." This is what makes me very, very ca ...

Just venting a little. Had a client that was constantly (almost daily) calling or emailing me they were missing charts and saying I had lost dictation. After 2 years of this, we came to mutual termination one month ago. I have gained back an hour of time per day chasing down charts that I know don't exist or fielding calls from several of their staff looking for that 'missing' dictation. Hated to lose a client, but my days are now peaceful again. Some ...
