Why Would I Want To Leave MQ Mar 21, 2010In case any of the higher ups read this--here is the reason why I (and so many others like me) are leaving (I really think they don't see the big picture:
1. Been with the company over 10 years, working more hours and making much less than the first day I joined the company. No raise in over 8 years and 2 pay cuts. When you work at a job, you are supposed to make more money not less--we are going in the WRONG direction.
2. No federal income tax taken out of my pay this y ...
Want To Leave MT Oct 22, 2010Hello, I am seriously considering leaving the field. I have worked too hard all my life to subject myself to one more drop in pay. Sometimes, we just have to make a stand and I think my time has come!
Luckily, my husband has a good job and I can afford to take some time off to take a class or two or start over in another field. My question is what direction to go? What field would make for the smoothest transition? My friend who is also thinking of ...
When To Leave Your Job?? Dec 10, 2010I like my job and the people I work for, but I just cannot seem to make enough money. I have worked for 2+ years as an MT and get 8 cents a line. My accounts frequently have new difficult ESL docs, so there is a major learning curve practically every day which of course brings down my line counts. The company I work for is regularly bashed on the boards here, but since pretty much every major MTSO is as well, I'm wondering if it's any better anywhere else. What have been other peo ...
Did Everyone Leave Their Job Sm May 05, 2011I am wondering if anyone quit the company they worked for, took time off and found another transcription job after a hiatus. I am thinking about quitting the company I work for because there is no work. I know the account managers have favorites and can control who they give the work to. I heard this from an inside source. Anyway I am finding it too depressing to sit here for very little work. If I quit do you think it will be any harder to find work in maybe a month. I a ...

Leave Of Absence Jan 29, 2010I'm at my wits end and so stressed out with all this NJA crud, struggling to pay bills, never knowing how much money I'll make from check to check, and wondering how long I'll even have a job. I've decided to take a personal LOA to try to pull it together and destress. I sent my CCM an email about doing it and why a couple of weeks ago.
I've already put in for it at Hartford and they too sent CCM an email about it. However, CCM has never gotten back to me yet a ...
Will EHR Leave MTs Jobless? Mar 03, 2010I just had a chance to see the NextGen EHR demo videos. The incentives for using EHR from the insurances companies are huge. It amounts to $3,000 per doctor per month.
The doctor won't be able to fiddle with the computer to create EHR. Even with the current dictation types, the doctor would make some sort of a note or something to remember the main paints to dictate. This note is sufficient for the assistants to create EHRs. Probably an assistant will be able ...
Wake Up: They Want You To Leave. Don't You Get It? Jul 30, 2010Why is it that MQ is still advertising on mtjobs that they have openings, yet the MTs already working for MQ have NO work?

When Is It Time To Leave Sep 16, 2010I work for a company whom I don't know anymore. Like most I'm sure. it was a good company at one time, but now I'm waiting for pay from July, August, and of course up to now in Sept. I have had two pay cuts in the last six months. People say go do something else. I have been an MT for over 25 years and am now in my fifties. Not so easy to attempt to find something else in this economy and being single w/o another pay check coming in does not help.&nbs ...
