Nice doctor

Just finished a consult from one of my docs, and he's a little hoarse today, but not bad and at the end he says "and apologies to the transcription ladies. I know my voice is not necessarily the best for dictating today, and thanks for bearing with me." It sure is nice when they acknowledge that there is actually a person on the other end who is listening to them. ...

20 years ago when the DRG's hit the hospitals, one was complaing to the other... "they treat doctors like a bunch of old dogs now". Well, that's how MTs are being treated now. Why on God's green earth do the MT services require all MT's to work at least one weekend day every week (Friday's and Monday's don't count). Every ad I see on the Job Seeker board requires weekends. Are they sadistic or something. Why do we put u ...

is if people in this company would actually do what they say they will do. I have had 3 different people promise me things and never heard again from any of them. I didn't ask for the moon, just help. ...

that our supervisors are NO WHERE TO BE FOUND on IM today, while we are sitting here waiting for ANYTHING to come in. BAH HUMBUG. ...

Why do only the people who have nothing good or helpful to say the only ones who are on here posting messages. If you don't have anything relevant or nice to say, do us all a favor and keep your trap shut! There is no provocation for attacking someone just because they said that being an auditor lets them enjoy having sick days and holidays off and then questioning their ability to do their job. I was an MT for many, many years, so I was in the same boat you all are now and even wors ...

Having a "senior" moment. Found out my hire date is incorrect and need to correct this. They have left off a large amount of time. How do I contact HR? TIA. ...

for the managers, TSMs, PCs, whatever to have the weekend off while we work our "MOT." Once again I have not received a single email. So that makes this day 3 or 4, I can't remember anymore, with no contact from MM. Wonder if we are backlogged? Does MOT end tonight at midnight since that's when a new pay period begins? What the H E double hockey-sticks is going on MM??? ...

at the end of the report. "Thank you so much for doing my dictation, have a great day" Sometimes the little things count. ...

so many times i've cursed because i was at the end of my shift but i forgot to check the box and had to do another one ...

After some coworkers and I applied for positions with a different company, I was floored by how many went on and on about the recruiter being "so nice" and how that translated -- in their minds -- into a reflection of their immediate supervisor and everyone else within the company. OF COURSE the recruiter is nice! If she weren't personable and didn't have that type of personality, most likely she would not be in the position of recruiter. Only the WORST managed companies ( ...

MTSO companies. Being a long-time loyal employee/IC means nothing to most MTSO's. I've worked for the same company for around 4 years, through ups and downs, feasts and famines, and the minute it gets a little busy, they hurry up and hire more MTs. That proves to me that all they care about is making money for themselves and is just a slap in the face of the MT. Maybe if you must hire new MTs for busy times, how about giving work first to your long-time MTs when ...

I ercently started with a company and posted prevously about how the recruiter had sent me a greeting card welcoming me to the company. In addition, I also received a greeting card from the person who trained me when I started with the company. I got up this morning (Thanksgiving) and had receieved a Thanksgiving greeting card from the company, stating how thankful they were to have me as a part of their team. In today's market, I thought that was a nice personal touch. ...

If corporate realized how hard and difficult our job is and perhaps, at the very least, wiished us a Happy Holiday season and thanked us for all we do? And rhen I woke up and smelled the coffee. ...

It is really terrible when you come to the board to make a comment someone always has to say something negative-sometimes we are only looking for support from fellow MTs. I do not understand why there is always so much backlash. If you do not have anything good to stay keep your comments to yourself. Life can be hard enough. When the table is turned hopefully there will be someone there to lend an ear and a kind word when it is needed. ...

about Synernet and steps to do things, I want to ask something else. I keep losing autocorrects! I saw the note about exit Fusion last and I try to make sure I do that, but I am still losing them. I have not exited Fusion since adding Tessalon Perles, yet it was not there when I tried to put it in just now. Is there another trick to keeping them? ...

I went to Target to get my flu shot. I usually just pay for it myself. Turns out our Cigna insurance covers the flu shot AND the $275.00 Zostavax (for us older folks). I'm glad I can use up my PPO dollars or whatever it is before I get fired. Of note, if you run out to get the shingles vaccine, it hurts, and my arm is still sore from 2 days ago. ...

if MModal would do just one thing....ONE THING...to make our jobs easier. i swear they sit around and see what they can do to make everything single tiny little thing as hard as possible. right now i'm talking about that freakin' time card and trying to enter PTO based on our NJA down time. to make the times match up, i guess i just lie and make up times, just to play their stupid little make everything harder game. ...

I've noticed that all-in-all, people are pretty nice on here. There are a few negative people and people who jump to conclusions and take things the wrong way, but those are very few. Most of the people here are quick to try to help when others need advice to improve their production or find a job. That's so refreshing. ...

Only now they call it a helper pool! Just about every report is from a new, unfamiliar hospital! Yay! Plus, my computer is doing that slowing down/stuttering thing that people were talking about yesterday! What my luck! I do so love my job (did I really say that?). Ugh ...

Well, I just had a very offputting (to say the least) conversation with a person at Adept Transcription. I tend to be a very reasonable, pleasant person and am upset at the way I was treated. This woman was downright nasty! She didn't like that I called the company. Now, she could have just told me that communication via e-mail was preferred. I would have apologized for the inconvenience and hung up. Rather, she told me I was not employable and hung up on me. Wow! What h ...

force yourself to get up early on a freezing cold morning, make coffee, boot everything up, start all your programs, and then.......... NJA. ...

Let me start by saying that I live in a rural area and because I am about a quarter mile from my mailbox, I do not get my mail daily. My landlord came over today (Monday), with my mail and one of the items was a belated birthday card from the company that I work for United Transcription. It is nice to know that there are some smaller, apparently caring companies out there. ...

22 line report, 1 major error, quality score 95.something (don't have it pulled up right now) now and none of blanks i sent it for in the first place were showing at all, whether they had been filled in or not. I swear it feels like this person is out to get me. ...

ARH employees are kicking up a fuss and they have their Union involved. They also do not seem to believe the company's usual propiganda. We should have had a union for years. The link to the article is below. I really hope their union is able to help (and possibly bring MM to their knees). I would like to see at least some reckoning here. Karma, you gotta love it. There seems to a problem with the link showing up, not sure why, so here is the artic ...

While it may not work for actual long-distance phone calls, especially for use with C-phones, Go-to-meeting, and such as that, I found a nice benefit today to having the Magic Jack. It has call forwarding that can be turned on and off. So, I use my magic jack number for job contacts. I have calls forwarded to my home office number only during working hours. The magic jack phone does not have to be actually connected to the computer, and the computer does not have to ...

When someone was looking for a job all they would have to do is refer to this board. I, too, am lookiing for a job and I do remember in the past warnings about not to work for this one or that one, but it's difficult to find the old posts. And I sure cant remember them all just off the top of my head except for the current ones. Anybody agree with this? ...

instead of just bashing you every time there is something wrong. It doesn't matter that you did 1 million things perfectly or have corrected others' screwups constantly ... only time you hear anything is to chastise you for messing up a report. I used to get this type of thing when I was transcription supervisor in-house -- get yelled at for others' mistakes, things I knew nothing about -- but at least I was paid well and had benefits. Now I'm jus ...

I'm so excited to be moving and actually having a large official office space rather than the glorified broom closet-sized space I've been using for a few years now, lol! Does anyone have any decorating tips or able to post a picture of your home office setup? I'm actually going to have room for bookshelves, etc., and not have everything precariously positioned on top of a small computer table on rollers. Anyone who would care to share ideas or even post pictures of your o ...

Nice doctor - CAM
