A renegade medical transcriptionist rants about the inherent crappy nature of his former job. He used to have no choice, so he held on to that job because there weren't many other jobs available to him at that time. He used to be a victim of global exploitation occasionally masquerading as outsourcing.

Another Stupid Editor

Here's what that stupid editor did to my work.

We will go ahead and discontinue use of the Achillotrain today.

I had spelled it as AchilloTrain, with a capital T.

Check out their website and the link to the product:

Yes, that's the kind of quality that AM-Accuscripts produces. I don't know why it still exists despite the poor quality of work that it turns out. Most editors lack the common sense and English skills to make sense of the transcripts. Another theory is the fact that they get additional pay for the number of lines they edit, which means that they too have become as greedy as their boss.
