One TSM on the team has sent out a few reminder e-mails etc, but for the most part I have noticed many of the TSMs sending considerably fewer updates, etc. I do not think there was a single update this weekend. Certainly makes one wonder.
same here - new but old

I get my normal emails during the day letting me know how much work is on my account which has been overloaded lately. Plenty of work and yes not even FIESA nasty notes have been coming through. very strange Calm before the storm. It's too bad that we just can't relax and enjoy it but are worried what they are up to

My Mom Thinks They're Going Under... Aug 06, 2014Just based on what I tell her regarding low work volumes, losing accounts, losing transcriptionists in droves, new names popping up everywhere, being forced to work on 5 accounts now, pickier and pickier fiesa (to keep more of us way from the bonus), etc., my mom thinks we're about to be sold to the next highest bidder. I don't know if I agree with her or not, but just thought I'd throw it out there. ...
Am I The Only One Who Thinks DQS 6.1 Sucks? Sep 04, 2010On paper, some of the changes sounded good, like the auto numbering. But in practice it seems like all this new version does is cause DQS to run much more slowing, constantly locking up, auto-saving (and slowing down) too often, amongst other irritating little things. Why can't their upgrades ever actually be an UPgrade. I think they need to start calling them DQS downgrades.

Anyone Who Thinks QC Is Invincible Should Like This One Apr 10, 2015One of the I-really-could-care less dictators wanted ciprofloxacin taken off the med list because patient was on Coumadin, so I took it off and the editor added it back in and gave me a 1.0 error because I omitted it. This would involve knowledge that Cipro is the same as ciprofloxacin and its possible danger to the patient. In their quest to find our errors, they are hurting patients. Proof positive! So don't let them tow their line of corporate malarkey. ...
Everyone I Meet Thinks I Have Such A Great Job...NOT Mar 26, 2010They say, oh wow you get to work from home, that's great. I wish I could. Yeah it has it's perks and used to be fantastically flexible...key words "USED TO BE", now I'm tied to my desk, lost money, threat of money being taken away, company uses words like "lock down" -- isn't that a prison term??? Now I'm afraid to sneeze, breathe, take a bathroom break etc....GRRRR! Just venting, everyone I know thinks my life is cushy...!!! ...
Here Is What MModal Thinks Of Merger. Jul 21, 2011I am afraid all accounts will have to use voice recognition because that is the way things are changing. No more straight typing. We will not be MT's, but editors.

Who Thinks Their Platform Is Fast And Efficient? Jun 06, 2012It seems that the platforms nowadays have all slowed down since many are used for the dual purpose of VR and transcription. I used to use ChartNet years ago. It was fast and efficient, and I loved it.
Now I am on (another version I suppose) ChartNet again, and it is soooo slow to move from screen to screen, inserting cc's, demos, etc. that it actually makes me bored with my work. I can't seem to get momentum going like I did on the old ChartNet without VR.& ...

Is There Really Noone Who Thinks Taking The CMT Exam Is A Good Idea? Jun 20, 2012I am studying for the CMT exam, but the process is taking the joy out of my life. I noticed that on a previous post, everyone unanimously voted NO regarding the question about whether the CMT is worthwhile anymore. I am seriously considering dropping the idea of sitting the CMT exam. Am I making a mistake? (I really do not want to take jobs of increased responsibility in the field, just make sure I stay employed.) I'd appreciate your words of wisdom. ...

Why So Quiet? May 01, 2015I am not asking for constant updates on what's going on with EVERYTHING with this stupid company, I'm not asking for the complete low-down on what how you are planning on screwing us next, but this disappearing for days, no emails, nothing telling me about OT or backlog, no return of emails or phone calls or even a demeaning reprimand for something I did or did not do, just something that says "I'm here working harder than you" (yeh right). Something that says I'm in me ...
Quiet Keyboard Jan 11, 2010Hi all,
Hoping this is on the "write" board. I'm looking for a keyboard for my Dell desktop that's quieter...like a laptop keyboard is.
Any suggestions of model, where I can look, etc.? Personal experience with one is preferred...
Thanks!!

Anyone Else Notice How Quiet It's Been Lately? Sm Oct 17, 2014Usually there are a couple emails - and that stupid "joke of the day" daily, but for the past several weeks - nothing. Pretty quiet which makes me wonder what is really going on with this place.

Why Don't These Docs Go To A Quiet Space? Jul 23, 2013It would not be a bid deal for MModal to TELL these doctors how to dictate..I am sure they are clueless as to what comes over the phone lines. A bunch of cackling hens in the background of an already mumbling dictator is just ridiculous. Why do they not just tell them that phones pick up what is in the background? And while your at it, teach them how to end a dictation, cause the dialtones are killing my ears!!! ...

How Do You Find A Quiet Space To Work When You've Run Out Of Room?!?!?! Feb 05, 2010I recently moved into a small two bedroom house. It's an older house with a very creepy basement that is not finished, is damp, and just gross. Until I can afford to convert the garage or re-do the basement, my teenaged son has one bedroom and my 8yo daughter and I share the the master BR. Meanwhile my husband sleeps in the LR on the couch (our relationship is basically that of friends now who can't afford divorce). Anyway, my desk currently is in the LR. ...

NJA Recently? Apr 11, 2014Just wondering how the NJA problem is since 60 of us have moved on. We've had 2 new ILP accounts to QA (which are horrible) and 1 group hospitals that have come back from ILP land, but only recieved a small handful of MTs to compensate. My BOB has been swamped for the past week with late jobs every night. My TSM says that her manager said that there isn't anybody who can help out. I was just wondering if he/she is just too lazy to actually look. I know the ...
