If I have my best account, the one I have made up normals on because the same doc's say the same thing, I can average 300 plh no sweat. when not on that account, it's usually 150-190.
Use the expanders, make normals and that will help increase your line rate

I don't find this unreasonable (sm)
Everyone works differently and what's wrong with someone asking a valid question without someone else jumping on their hind end?
Personally, I'd rather work on line counts than hours because I can easily crank out 2000-3000 lines in less than an 8 hour shift if I'm motivated to do so.
Maybe she would rather work hours and not have to stress over how many lines she's cranking out.
We're all pretty much based on production so if she wants to do 5000 lines a week one week and 2000 lines the next and she finds a company willing to allow her to take on an account that's flexible, who are the rest of us to say she's trying to take advantage?
It's her paycheck and her job.
I don't think it unreasonable. I know lots of MTs
who don't have their own computer - which seems stupid to me, but they don't. If you get company provided computer then if there is a problem it is their responsibility. The deposit basically ensures that you return the equipment. I've seen more than one post where an MT will get equipment and never do any work, they just wanted a new computer.
Your concern is 'not' unreasonable
It's just that no one on the board here can really verify one way or the other if there is a real problem. I realize you just want others to say what type of counter they use to see if another program squares with TTs figures or yours.
If it makes you feel any better, I have taken note of your concerns. If I spot a discrepancy I will let you know (after advising TT of course), but frankly - the amount of discrepancy appears to be just a few dollars. It took me a long time to find TT and overall they are a good company, so for 'me' it would not be worth arguing over - especially since they are adamant they are counting fairly...
It seems to me after all this discussion that the would immediately seek out and fix any true deficiency with the counter...
but then what do I know?
2500 to 3000 a month is not unreasonable. SM
I do about 2000-2500. It depends on the work type. I like OP notes (if I am fortunate enough to get them). ERs would be nice too, but haven't done those in years. I work for MQ.
Seems really unreasonable to lump the "slackers" in with hardworking MTs
and in doing so penalize the hardworking MTs with lousy wages to cover up for the slackers.
There are slackers and losers in every single walk of life, every country, and in every business. To lump every AMERICAN MT into the American pieces of wasted breath pile as you have and also the OP is ludicrous.
There ARE American MTs out there like me who work seven days a week, put in huge production totals with no errors, and who work HARD to support themselves and their families.
Instead of giving away our work maybe the companies should get rid of the dead weight, instead of selling out our business and our country.
