So, this new "exciting" change they are talking about...

Since when do we have to initial for EVERY report that went to QC for review? How hard would it be to let us know, hey, next time you open Fiesa, you are going to get such notice and you must review all of the reports--even if they scored over 99%.....Nope, figure it out on your own. The reason the reports go to review, many more times than not, is because it is a crappy dictator, HORRIBLE sound quality, so quiet I cannot turn up the volume anymore, or just plain did not make any sense, so show ...

Did any of you on the Ambulatory side get the e-mail this morning about the exciting new changes? What is your take on it? I, for one, am not "excited" - but more like horrified. ...

Hey MTs who work for Nuts, In my opinion, with the system being down and Nuts hurting to get the work back to their clients, and Christmas almost here, what a GREAT TIME to say: "I have some EXCITING NEWS! Here is my resignation, effective immediately! MERRY CHRISTMAS!" Think of the impact if MTs joined this bandwagon!!! Who cares, let Nuts send the work to India. See what happens! ...

Well, now I am equating "exciting" with doom and gloom. First they knocked the pegs out of under me (us) and sold the company to Nuance. Now the account that I was told would probably NEVER go to speech recognition, is doing just that. I feel like I've been kicked in the stomach. Don't know how much longer I will ride this wave. Lord come quickly. ...

Why is the most important factor in this (compensation rates) such a big secret? Why the silence. Why are TSMs not allowed to discuss or explain? How can you view this as exciting? It may be exciting for those at the top as they anticipate plan for increased bonuses and more exotic vacations. I can assure you, it's not viewed as exciting to those of use actually doing the work so that you may continue to live the lives you've become accustomed to. It's just so disheartening ...

to announce it by now. Rather, it's end of year, they are frantically trying to hire new MLS who don't know any better and will be locked into the crappy exciting compensation plan while there is the expected stampede for the door. Can't get any lower than that. I wonder how much they paid a committee or team to think up this plan. ...

I am really surprised that there is no one talking about DIT. I know that I am not the only one that got the shaft from them. The owners last excuse for not paying me for work completed was that he just found out that he was losing his eyesight!. Again, I fell for it hook, line and sinker. He couldn't answer his emails because he had to find someone else to read them to him. By the end of the conversation, I was in tears..... I am such a fool. I did however, get my pay in full, ...

Must be extremely busy with M*Modal today. Nobody has anything to say. Either that or they were taught properly and know if they can't say anything nice they won't say anything at all! ...

is 12 o'clock position/axis/radians or twelve o'clock.....please check the book of style, cuz I'm getting confused with these new people.... ...

a set schedule, but I also thought as an IC you should be able to say how much you charge, not let the MTSO tell you how much they are willing to pay you. ...

anyone else tired of being talking down to by their QC, so sick of it, they act like we are babies and they are the only ones with knowledge. So we make a mistake, their mistake in this company if making the point value so high on silly things, but there again that is one way of getting rid of us and giving more to off-shoring. Just tired of it all but looking every chance I get. And I guess the higher ups who get copies of all the QC emails probably are eating it up when they ...

Has anyone worked for Talking Type? I just tested for them and wondered how they are as far as paying on time and having enough work. Thanks. Ev ...

Are the latest "exciting" changes meant to help or hinder us, the MTs? ...

Gotta love George Carlin; he doesn't mince words. As I listened to his monologue, I felt like he was describing most MTSO's, not just corporate America: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYIC0eZYEtI ...

s/l rue low...then goes on with platelet count ...

From 05/08 "During the second quarter, across U.S. and India, you will see integration of our people policies, including compensation and benefits, across all entities. As another step in our Mission ONE organizational integration process, we are continuing to evaluate and align job titles and salary structures, and we expect this to be completed by early summer. Being structured on job titles and salary ranges will help us ensure that we are market competitive and allow for easier integration ...

work and said the use the "M Modal" platofrm. What is that? I know back in the Medquist day it was DocQScribe. Is it that, something like that, or something completely different? ...

People where I live have all started saying Mmbye when they say goodbye. Like they are getting off the phone and they say mmbye. It's driving me nuts. ...

Does anyone know if there isa good website when asking general questions with MT recruiters? Sometimes I forget to askcertain questions until after I hagve hung up the pone? I have made lists before, but would also like another opinion or two. Thanks ...

The hopeful folks....did you forget we have not even started with the new guidelines by which our work will be audited at a yet unspecified date? You may be feeling all warm and comfy right now with your 99.9% to 100% reviews. I would not be counting on that. I've had plenty of those, too, and regularly achieved the quarterly bonus up until recently. So, I work 25 hours, and they audited 1 report only with 1 error and I am at a tad over 98%. Meanwhile, I pended 4 jobs and that ...

Note, these are non-MT jobs. I have been applying to jobs that pay per "audio talking minute." These are all basically customer service jobs which might include a little tech help and also might include some upselling. Anyone have a take on this? After I quit MT, I SWORE I would never do any job that was not hourly or otherwise a guaranteed amount per paycheck. Has anyone done this type of work? I guess I'm curious what "audio talking minute" means. I'm assuming it means not ...

as transcription of being automated and/or off-shored. Needless to say this was very discouraging. Anyone have an opinion about this? I hope it's not true. ...

for acute care. I sent them the following email and wonder if I came across as rude. Hi. I have tried contacting you all several times. I was hired, finished the paperwork, got the foot pedal and then it seemed like you all forgot about me. I got another email just like this one and responded to a girl, was told she would get back with me and again I was forgotten. Please let me know if I can work for you all or not. If not, please do not email again. ...

in such slow halting manner, almost like a computer voice only worse...I have this dodo at maximum speed and he is still so slow I want to browse between windows... this is probably the result of using voice transcription machines. Hello, we're human !! please just talk like a regular people-person... ...

doing illegal things/getting busted that listed a specific labor law in detail with highlighted areas pertaining to what these MT companies are doing? Has it been removed, and if so why? That post had some really good info regarding these companies. ...

I have been transcribing for 11 years and everytime I get a fasting talking dictator with an accent, it slows me down so much that it affects my production. I have slowed down the speed and added several expanders but that does not seem to help. Are there any tips or suggestions anyone has that can help? Thanks, Mel ...

I'm aware of the increase in lines per hour to 186 (average between regular and edited) which I think might be a little challenging to sustain on a regular day-in and day-out basis, but why is no one discussing the increased weekly line requirements. It's a pretty significant jump. ...

So, this new "exciting" change they are talking about... - where our pay will be based

reversals? - anon

I received a reversal last week - nm

I've definitely gotten reversals and still do - babe
