but the email did not give a reason, just said that after HR review, I was deemed ineligible for rehire. Gave me the recruitment department if I felt the decision was in error, but when I called them, all they said was the decision came from HR. Said they had no info on email address or phone number. ...

To illustrate the stark difference between those so many believe to be "they" and those they consider to be "we." Let us as AMERICAN MTs think: "… why the Central Americans… at Kaiser Permanente in Los Angeles had always been “on board” in terms of active grassroots participation in their local union, in contrast with non-immigrant workers who viewed the union as a sort of utility, with a bill (dues) that came once a month, but not a collective. …El ...

I'm so depressed, I could just cry. I am getting report after report of the worst mush-mouth, slurring/blurring CRAPPY dictators. I finally just logged off. Still have 4 hours to go and I just can't face leaving 15 blanks in every report. Especially now that we have been told by our QC that we are being graded "harshly." I have tried to leave 3 times and have made less than with the Q and came back. I would go to Walmart, but a friend of our who works there just told ...

I know a lot of you are going through this...I totally understand. I am in radiology and the workload has been so slow. This has been going on even before the holidays, especially after I got moved to a different CCM. She only wants to change my schedule which, according to her emails, would be foolish since the times she wants me to move to have no work either. I would go above her but what good would that do? I have been actively applying to other places...but haven� ...

Got my ASR production report. My net lph is 100 lines greater than my gross lph. The definition of gross is the the total before any deductions. The definition of net is gross minus deductions. Good grief. This is my report from last week. Last week I really put my nose to the grind stone and gave it full effort in the hopes that it would be reflected in my count. Nada, nothing. My count was exactly the same as when I don't have my nose to the grind stone. They want your hand o ...

Has anyone gotten so depressed about how their transcription jobs are practically gone that they don't even want to sign in. This morning I said why bother. I am thinking of quitting because I waste time just sitting for eight hours. I would have to cut back big time but it is getting to depressing to sit here. ...

How are supposed to determine our gross pay from our pay stubs? I'm in the process of filling out an application that asks for my gross pay, and I franky don't know. I can't even tell if I'm getting minimum wage for my state. ...

I just started with a new company and am really depressed about the "corrections" I am getting back from their QA. I have 35+ years of experience and yet I can't seem to do anything to please them. I'm told to type verbatim, but when I do, they "correct" that, stating I left "the" off when it was never dictated, etc., and other stupid things similar to that. I am to the point where I wonder if I will ever please them because it seems that no matter what I do, they are ...

I just had a speaker burp and didn't say "Excuse me." The things we put up with as an MT. ...

On the new pay grid, it's broken down and then it says total compensable lines and then a dollar amount. Is that dollar amount the pay for the week? If so mine is like $200 lower than usual. I hope I'm reading this wrong. ...

I left MM over a month ago. I interviewed for a job the very next week and they hired me on the spot. The money was wonderful, hourly only. It was soooo sweet! Money great, people there great. I thanked God every day for it. Then, on the 4th week, I was informed that my job there was over. HERE AGAIN...they have no MTs anymore. WHAT?!!! Consequently, I am not ever, ever, ever, going to go for an MT job again. I love the work so ve ...

I find that lately I am feeling depressed over the reports I've been transcribing. Maybe it's because it's the holiday season and I can't help but feel badly for these people who are so very sick (I do acute care). Lots of oncology these days, for some reason. I wonder how MTs who transcribe for childrens' hospitals or cancer clinics handle it. It must get to them. ...

Is there anyone out there that is making the same or more money with MQ since all this has changed. I am an MME and I just cannot seem to make any money. I try so hard to make ends meet, this is going to be the first time I will not be able to make my car payment. When I get on a roll the system seems freeze up or I just get horrible dictators the rest of my shift. I feel alone? If there was someone who can tell me, they are able to stay at same rate, then I can ...

P-ANCAs are seen in autoimmune GI diseases such as autoimmune hepatitis, s/l "gross encolongitis" and inflammatory bowel disease. I cannot find anything close online, so I'm assuming I'm way off...any ideas? ...

I have been a stay at home mom since my son was born. During that time I also became a cancer survivor(ovarian). When my son started kindergarten, I decided to go back to school. Since medical transcription is really the only legitimate work you can do from home, I decided to go that route. I was amazed at the schooling and surprised at how well I did. I thought for sure, being an older student and out of the education loop for a while that I wouldn't do well. But I surprised myself. I real ...

This is an internal medicine file for a patient who just is mildly depressed. "Lately she has just had a very labile mood, anxious, depressed, and s/l sonnering around." Any clue? Please help anyone. ...

I cannot take much more. Those of you who don't have any compassion or feel the need to ever vent and just unload once in a while may stop reading now. I'm not writing to be bashed, stomped on, mashed, or otherwise abused and used more than the Q already does. I catch this crap from them every day, I don't need to hear it from fellow MTs. We are all in this same rocking, sinking, Titanic together. To make a very long story short here's the abbreviated vers ...

Considering taking a new job but wondering if I'd be getting screwed. Owner is offering 4.5 cpl for a gross line, and they use the line count function in Word to count their lines. On the sample test document they have their margins stretched about as far as they can go. I make 8 cpl right now on a 65 character line, typing in Word, and by the formula I'm paid by now it looks like 4.5 cpl would be almost half of what I'm making now for the same document. Ow ...

My net pay didn't even hit 20K this year! And then I see that MM is advertising for more MT's, and I haven't had a full day in over 2 weeks? What is really going on here? Okay, done venting now. Thanks for listening! ...

I just started my first job as an mt nearly five months ago. I've struggled with production, quality, and pretty much any other issue you can think of. I've gotten more and more depressed because my confidence at work isn't good. I've been diagnosed with major depression before, so iknow itsnot the only reason. It just feels like it. I have a lot of trouble concentrating when i have these upsetting bouts of depression. I had one today and only got 500 lines. I was ho ...

Typing a SOAP note for a local physician and I know I have heard this word before but do not use it everyday and it is just not clicking this morning!!!
