I think its 6000 lines per pay period and 20 hours.....but
s
I was told 6000 lines for 2 weeks when I hired
in as an SE 6 weeks ago.

FT = 6000 lines a week. nm
x
Yes, 10 cpl, mininum of 5000 or 6000 lines per week I think. nm
x
First, what kind of time frame are we talkin? 6000 lines in a week?

I ask because 6 cpl is horrible and if they expect you to produce 12,000 lines in a week in order to get 9 cpl, well that's just nuts.


But I digress, you original question was should you continue to work when you do not have access to your line count --> NO!  And the fact that you are getting the run around should be sending up red flags.


Now you couple that with the 6 cpl and I would have to say this place you work at sucks!


Full time with Transtech is both. 40 hours per week and 5500 lines per week.

11,000 lines per 2 week period. nm

How many hours in a week do you normally work to get your lines in?
Just curious. I work 50-plus hours here to make it work for our family, would love to cut back
Can anyone tell me the required amount of hours/lines for part time per week for Focus? nm

6000 lines for SE in Texas
my region requires 6000 lines for SE, which i think sucks. I was lied to months ago. they said that all offices were going to require 6000 lines for SE's across the board. I don't know what would make me think they were telling the truth!!
Why would anyone work 8 hours a week. The poster above said 16 or 24 hours a week.
:
Sorry, I work 15 hours a day 5 days a week and 5 hours the other 2, when I come here I dont proof.

What is TH's pay period? Two weeks or bimonthly? nm
.
Any companies that allow line count rather than hours or less than 20 hours per week? (sm)

Wouldn't mind having something extra especially with Christmas and general winter expenses coming up but working a FT job and really don't want to do another 20 hours on top of that. 


 


Every 2 weeks on Monday. Pay period ended
 this past Sunday and I will get paid next Monday, 11/12. 
Must we choose either 8, 16 or 24 hours. Why would they want someone only working 8 hours a week.
That is less than SE are required now.
3.34 hours per pay period,
and we former TRS people were grandfathered in such that our hire date with TRS is now our official hire date for Transcend, if that makes sense....

However, having said that, lest I be accused of anything I do not mean, I will state (again) that this has been MY experience. I can't speak for any other mergers, where the terms of the merger might be different....
No, it's not. 3.385 hours per pay period for your first year and then it
goes up from there. I think it ranges from a low end of 11 days in year one to like 25 days after 10 years. Just call them and ask.
11,000 a week - do u mean pay period??

Webmedx training period. Is it 8 hours a day or...
whatever period of time your trainer designates for those first few days.  I'm starting Webmedx on Monday.  I guess I could wait to find out, but would be nice to know what others' experiences have been.  Thanks!!
Comment about 2-week pay period
When I worked at the hospital, we could work over 40 hours one week out of 2, as long as our total for the 2-week pay period was less than 80 hours.  I used to work 7 nights straight, off 2, on 3, off 2. 
$725 take home/2-week period...
full-time, employee status.  Lots of ESL, but I definitely could do better if I buckled down and focused more. 
$900 ppd is not going to cut it with me. I made a heck of a lot more than that in a 2-week period.
are having problems reaching that magical number (from prior posts). I can't live on $1800 a month, that is LOW PAY!
11,000 lines per pay period. nm

12,000 lines per pay period
It's a pretty strict requirement for all full-time MTs to make their lines in order to remain full-time and keep benefits. Obviously, if there are valid circumstances that prevent you from making your 12,000 lines, they are very understanding. They will help everyone in any way they can.
Most companies have a 2 week training period and if meeting
production and QA one can opt out of it early.
20,000 lines a pay period would be wonderful.
I'm lucky to get 10,000 to 12,000.
12,000 lines per pay period to be considered SE...nm

12,000 lines/pay period not 1200
I'm sure it was a typo, and I'm not picking on anyone, but I just want to clarify that it is 12,000 lines per pay period that is required of an SE which is roughly 1200 lines a day.  Hope this helps! 
1200 lines/pay period?? nm

1200 lines a pay period

The requirement for direct deposit is 14,000 lines a pay period CONSISTENTLY, so in breaking it down over a 13-14 day period, a bit over 1,000 lines a day -- hope you can brush up on you math too


I meant to say 12,000 lines per pay period (nm)

12,000 lines per pay period for FT status

Well above 12K lines a pay period HOORAY! nm.

x number of lines per pay period. I have sm
insurance for myself and husband and it runs right at 200 a pay period but it is fantastic insurance. It has only gone up once since 2003 when I started working for Webmedx.
I manage to get almost 20,000 lines per pay period typing.
if you really must know.
Insurance way too high. 12,000 lines per pay period.
All they offer are the few days of PTO. That does not include sick days or personal days and if you take a holiday off you will also have to use PTO to get paid for it, only pay for holidays if you work um.

My friend told me that there is no way she will be able to make the minimum line requirement after being switched to a VA account. She also said that on a whole their accounts are lousy and QA is very inconsistent.


Is there anyone working for Keystrokes that has not been able to get 12,000 lines per pay period? sm
If so, how is that handled by the company?
10,0001 lines per pay period for FT with benefits. nm

I'm fulltime IC, need to get 10,000 lines per pay period, believe parttimers need 5000 per pay
period.  They've been very flexible with me, as long as I get in the required lines by the end of the pay period.  We use DQS platform, which is user friendly, but I don't think it's as easy to get lines as on some of the other platforms, I think because of the way it counts them.  DSG is a good fit for me, always treated me fairly, pay is on time. 
Had you worked for them very long? How many lines were you averaging each pay period?
That is terrible.  I am so sorry to hear that.  Best of luck to you in your new job.
They contacted me last week and said it would take about 2 weeks.

Never heard of them. I thought the 16 hours + 2 weeks of training
s
12K lines payperiod is 6K lines a week.

Full time empoyee status only -- 1000 lines/day, 10,000 per pay period.
