Are Transcription Jobs Going Down The Drain?
Oct 25, 2012
I work at home for the local hospital/clinic and have for the last 12 years doing transcription. Now all of a sudden we switched to a new system and a lot of the doctors are doing voice recognition and we are doing more editing of reports than typing. Also, I used to work a solid 8 hours a day from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Now I have to get up at 4 a.m. to grab work till about 8 a.m., and then there is no work till around noon. Even after that it is sporadic, hit and miss.&nbs ...

Is anyone else fighting back against all the time we are expected to give away? Every time they ask us to sit waiting for work to come in for 15 minutes, they are only paying minimum wage for your state. If you are making more than this with your calculated base, they are cheating you! I lose approximately $7 dollars an hour when asked to wait. I for one have had enough! Pray for me, as I may push this to the limit of losing my job, but when you think about it, that ...
