In week 2 of being an ex-nuancer - HangingInThere
Posted: May 19, 2015
So I am in my 2nd week of being an ex-nuancer and not being an MT. There is a whole new world out there I forgot existed. My hands, fingers, wrists, elbows, back, and bum do not hurt and ache. No headaches. I get to leave my job when I am done and come home and forget about it. Good pay, good benefits, and I get to see other people every day instead of just me and my computer. Although there is of course the adjustment of not having the security of being home everyday to handle personal situations that may come up, etc., I can honestly say I do not miss Nuance or transcription at all. It is refreshing to be doing something different. I hope more of you can find your "greener grass" because it is out there.
ditto about greener grass ex-nuancerr - anonMT
[ In Reply To ..]I know that some can't work on site and need to be remote, but if you can work at a job, in my case it has been WONDERFUL...I know I am blessed with a good boss and great coworkers as that is not always the case, but I LOVE going to work now. I get every holiday off with pay, regular bonuses, and just had a pay increase. What was hard to get used to was showing up early to get everything set up, read all my work e-mails, etc before punching in the time clock (I did this and nobody else does, all of the above is included, everyone punches in, gets their coffee, then does all of this!) After my 3 month probationary period, I got flowers and a nice card from my boss. I about fell over after how I had been treated at Nuance!! There is light at the end of the tunnel if you will look for it :)

Soon To Be A Nuancer And Am Nervous
Nov 27, 2012
I'm getting ready to have software installed on my computer this week and am having second thoughts after reading the posts on this board. I'm really upset about the off-shoring that Nuance does and was naive when I applied (I should've checked on the boards first). I'm not sure if I should back out or give it a try. The account I'm assigned to supposedly is a new clinic account so everything is up in the air - it'll be straight typing and then mov ...
HAPPY MT WEEK - Have A Great Week
May 17, 2010
To all you wonderful MTs working and slaving your lives away, Happy MT Week. I appreciate you. I appreciate your kindness when I have a rant or a rave, when I'm at my wits end with the constant changing around of clients, client profiles and the never ending dings being thrown at me. I appreciate knowing that I am not alone in this struggle. It is because of all of you, and only you MTs on this board that I manage to stay in this game. We are treated as less than second class citiz ...

Good grief. I did not change the way I edit. It so depends on how many commas they think you should have. Yes, I made an unusual (for me) mistake last week, but the rest of passing an audit is dumb luck of whether you get a realistic auditor or Ms English wannabe. Everybody must be under pressure because of the cesspool as I see a lot of mistakes when I look up past reports to help with these mush mouths and accents. The time czar wants schedule changes, but I see no problems with turna ...

MT Week -- Huh?
May 17, 2010
I've never heard of National MT Week. Been doing MT for 10 years for the same MTSO. Never came on to MT Stars until about the last six months. Obviously, I have never gotten anything for MT Week, so at least some of you are lucky that you do get a little something, whatever it might be. My MT job just keeps getting better and better (NOT) with pay decreases and work lost to VR. ...

I'm trying to finish out my notice and will have to force myself to turn on that stupid computer in the a.m. May not be finishing out because I am not going to be strapped down waiting for piddly crap to come my way every 45 minutes. I just keep wondering what the patients would say if they knew their records were going to India just to save a few bucks. I'd love for some news media to pick it up and ask that very question. ...

MT Week
May 15, 2015
I really think the easiest way to send MModal a message would be if everyone, and I mean everyone, just did not participate. I think that would be the loudest message of all that we do not give a flying cr** about their "games" anymore. You want to appreciate me, treat me like the skilled, knowledgable, MT that I used to be paid a living a fair wage for. Bring back a real incentive, bring back shift differentials, give back an actual end-of year bonus, etc. ...

I thought I sent 2 reports to QA but forgot to mark the QA box. Not my fault for the blanks but according to what I've been told, if we just can't understand the dictator, we have to send it to QA. MOST of the work I send to QA they can't get either, but its counted against us anyway. W ...
Audit - I Probably Will Be Gone This Week

I have been put on a written audit and received 92%. So I am being given 1 more week. Which means I am more than likely out of here. I did not not have any Major marks, but only a lot of minor - i.e., two liters versus 2L, grams versus g. I should just quit and go work at the big lots, less stress more money ...
MT Week Gift
May 24, 2010
Just received my MT gift. I really think that Medquist must feel "It is the thought that counts". It probably cost them more to mail these then they are worth. Why don't they just give us an extra hour off with training pay - worth more to me than this mousepad. I need an ergonomic mouse pad anyway - did they ever think of giving their "beloved" employees one of those? Oh well. Just another day being an MT. ...

MT Week And MTSO's
May 19, 2010
The little "trinkets" some of you have received is extremely comical and a so-called slap in the face to some, but some may view it as an actual good gesture, although I do not agree. When I worked at neurology they used to always acknowledge MT week with flowers or a $25 gift card to our local mall, but when they got a new office manager he combined Secretary's Week and MT Week into one. My coworker and I got acknowledged one year on Secretary's Week - now that is a slap in the face ...
