TSMs are probably next. They can be replaced by - India too for pennies on the dollar.

Well, I found out today that some former TSMs were let go. I thought I'd feel better about one. I thought I'd giggle and be happy someone stuck it to her for once. But then I thought...huh, I don't. I really don't. Because regardless of how I personally felt about her, she got the job done, and without so much as a blink, she is without insurance or income. The other? She was a gem. She was knowledgeable and hard working, and sh ...

"New technology" is often given as a reason for loss of MT jobs, even though skilled MTs are still needed in mamy capacities. Ours is not the only field of work that will be losing more and more jobs. A famous department store is testing kiosks with touch screens that customers can use to shop in the store, but just like they would online. I had a cosmetics sales job in one of these stores in between MT gigs and it paid $20/hr plus commission. We had t ...

Dr. has just visualized the ear with the operative microscope and cleanded his cerumen. He had canal cholesteatoma of the lateral boney canal at the junction with the cartilaginous canal. "The area was cleaned, there was some granulation present, *siptred extroffs* replaced, the remaining canal and drums appear normal." ...

Unions cannot change tax structures which encourage off-shoring. Wish they could. CEOs earn their big bonuses by reducing costs any way they can! Why wouldn't they hire cheaper labor since that is their very purpose? Especially in a company with no corporate ethic requiring otherwise. ...

Anyone know what they do while the MLSs are pounding away on our keyboards day in and day out, besides send out ridiculous emails all the time? ...

I've "worked" just about every holiday, and every time I'm told I have to keep checking back, keep checking back, keep checking back when we've run out of work (even though our new policy says otherwise). But where is my TSM? I've gone through a couple of those, too, but each time they are no where to be found on a holiday! Must be nice! I am so tired of this crap. ...

Sorry for anyone losing their job, but fair is fair. They have taken from the MTs until we are scraping the scum off the bottom of the barrell. If this company so badly needs to shave costs, let them do so at the expense of other job categories rather than all MTs. Most companies tend to be management heavy and reductions on that level, whether it be jobs or cutting benefits, reductions in wages, etc. let it happen. They can't take any more from us. We all wor ...

If I were an East TSM, I'd have my resume ready. ...

The la-dee-dah attitude of the e-mail updates makes me cringe! "Keep smiling!" "Let’s do our best to help keep things humming along!" Know this: Us MTs are NOT "smiling" and things AREN'T been "humming along." Maybe if our concerns were addressed instead of being swept under the rug in the hopes that ignoring them will make them disappear, we wouldn't all be so PISSED today. Get a clue. JEEZ. &n ...

Article on Kevin MD by Jordan Grumet. The doctors are serfs, working for the corporations, just like the MTs. ...

...they probably realize that it's completely anonymous. So watching us all agonize over the current situation when just ONE of them could easily come on using a pseudonym and give us some idea about what is going on or give some insight as to how the decisions are being made ... if there is something we can do at this point to help us get on firm ground (or, have the decisions already been made?) would help some of us sleep at night. IMO, just sitting back and watching us stru ...

It seems that my TSM gets nastier and meaner every week! Maybe they offered her a new bonus plan? ...

As more and more MTs lose their jobs to offshoring, I don't think the TSMs are realizing that they are becoming expendable quickly too - No US MTs mean no US supervisors. The hospitals and clinics will have to talk to India to complain about their reports, dial 1 for English (sort of) and then hold for the next available representative for the next 20 minutes. I hope I get to see the day when MModal stock crashes. ...

My TSM is still here as of late this afternoon anyway. Have not seen or heard anything from the company. Are the one/ones that were let go on the ambulatory side or one of the newer Nuance acquisitions? ...

Seems like when we have gotten out of TAT they authorize OT like crazy. Or do we have penalties to customers for out of TAT work? ...

told to clock in at beginning when scheduled. If no work, clock out. Then it states to check back EVERY 30 minutes. If there is work clock in and begin working. When there are no more jobs clock out. Keep doing this until end of shift. Isn't this requiring us to be available for 8 hours but unpaid (most likely)? Doesn't this even go against MModal's current policy on no work available? ...

to realize that they are being totally played by Nuance and will be next in line to be driven away and finally quit or fired because of lack of work. Oh how I hope to witness that day when these weasely wannabe corporate ladder climbers get their just reward. ...

we're told internet outage is not acceptable reason not to work and to find alternative such as WiFi, etc. in a not so nice tone. Now we're told this is NOT acceptable (use of WiFi) as according to company policy. Make up your mind will ya? This TSM deserves a critical error deduction for misinformation (and the attitude). Shouldn't they be required to know company policy before taking on their position? ...

I just know KD has NEVER been an MT. ...

Just googled my former TSM ("former" because I got laid off in August) and on her Facebook page she is down as Compliance Program Director at MModal. This was/is the North region. To those of you so inclined......PLEASE spare me the "you don't have a life..." or whatever just because for a moment while on the computer I became curious and her name popped into my head. I have a life, just fine. Thanks. ...
