So did Clinton. nm

Clinton
Amen and healthcare became royally messed up since Hillary. The game has just gone on since with constant changes and rules insurance against doctor, etc. I was there then too and why I work at home.
Is this company in clinton township?

NAFTA was ratified in 1993 under Clinton. sm
Offshoring has bipartisan support in the Senate. It is no one party's fault. Please inform yourself.
Clinton also left this president a SURPLUS
Because now he has created the LARGEST DEFICIT IN THE HISTORY OF THIS COUNTRY. By the time he's done, there will be no US - we'll be a satellite branch of China or Japan.
Like Bill Clinton read the big bible...
he used to tote around on Sunday photo ops!
Rolling eyes here. They were being
sarcastic get it??
****rolling eyes**** see what I mean everyone?
A whole 2 cpl above base?? You must be rolling in

Clinton ignored bombings on US by terrorists. BTW, revenues were counted twice, SM
SS was counted twice, put in the general fund. It all looks good on paper. I dont want to debate this with you, I am bored with this and tired of repeating myself. Clinton pulled troops out Somalia, which Bin Laden himself said is why he knew America was weak. To say things in sound bites does not do history justice, and leads to untruths.
You obviously want to blame Bush for everything, even outsourcing. No history lesson will change your mind.
Rolling on the floor laughing .... nm

Rolling eyes is quite unprofessional, IMO. sm
Get over it disgruntled. My goodness, did they expect you to do horrible things like to work 8 hours a day and meet minimums? Shame on them for expecting such of a Primadonna.
Where did you get your crystal ball? Think it needs
nm
They dropped the ball with me, too (sm)
I persisted a lot longer than I normally would because I really needed a job and had heard good things about them. I kept on them for weeks, and did eventually get hired. I was with them for quite a while but had to quit because I needed benefits. Still the best MT company I've run across. One account that doesn't run out of work. That makes a lot of difference.
Here is the comment that got the whole ball of wax
All the difficult jobs and bad dictators only make you stronger. You can't have perfect jobs everyday, so just get over it. Also, to MTs who refuse to do OP reports - you are only keeping yourself from being the best MT you can be. I've been an MT for sooooo long and I wouldn't even notice or care if someone was cherry picking. I certainly wouldn't waste my time checking. The jobs have to get done and I'm good enough to do them. If I have to leave some blanks, oh well, move on! You guys act like little kids wondering if someone got the bigger piece of candy. Good grief!
We don't need to say anything in OUR defense. This is unacceptable.
Well no one has a crystal ball
It's not inevitable that ALL clients and companies will go VR? Why would that be? It's not a cure-all, just another technology method.
Your friend probably just kept paying the interest and rolling it over...
then it could add up to any amount. That is how they get you good.
That's the attitude that keeps the suits rolling in cash.

Rolling on floor laughing my butt off.

I got whacked out of the ball park!
After applying for many jobs, and not getting one, I decided to go ahead and apply at Focus. I took their test and didn't pass. The recruiter said I passed the first 2 parts but did not pass the transcription portion. I was really surprised since I have been a medical Transcriptionist for almost 11 years, have specialized in hem/onc for the past 7-1/2 years. Needless to say, this has really made me depressed.

yeah those state boards are really rolling in the posts......
NOT
That's in the "average" ballpark. Some companies are trying to low ball at 3 cpl and less.
Definitely do not take less than that, as sometimes, you end up having to retype a lot of the text and it really is not worth it when your paid 3 cpl. I would never accept less than 4 cpl. Can I ask who offered you a job, maybe I can give you some insight.
Yep. This MT feels like a ping pong ball...
Meanwhile, because the last 6 months has not been the best with the MTSOs, owe lots of bills, and looking to change jobs for about the 3rd time. Actually very tired of being promised and then not having a full paycheck. What am I to tell the bill collectors today? I am going to apply to another job, or take on another, because my job is always running out of work? Talk about a poor credit reference. Uggg. Signed the ping pong MT.
Don't need a crystal ball when R.C. is informing all her favorites with inside info
How do you think the information about the production management team was being let go before THEY even knew it?
JLGers - how flexible are they with hours, i.e. kids ball games, etc. (nm)

Why would anyone be so adamant about holding on to such a crud-ball, crap-paying, loser of a job lik
If this is what it takes to get us off our butts and get a respectable job that pays more than a 16-year-old makes babysitting, so be it. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise.
I for one am outta here. Good luck!
I was hired and started in 1 week. That is not a long set-up time. When I started with our local h
I needed to get a physical and go through orientation at the hospital which is only given two times per month. This is a 900-bed hospital, so it cannot be an unusual process. MQ took 2 weeks. KS took 1 week. SoftScript never got me started even after repeated calls and emails.
I have only been with KS for 9 months but would never put them in the same catagory as the others you mentioned. They are the best company I have worked for, and unfortunately, I have bounced around a little in the last 5 years.

and they started
you at 9.5 cents per line???
Well let's see, I started my day
and have sat here all day to only have 60 some reports! Sad but true. I have 2 other PT jobs for this very reason. I only stay because when the work is there, the money is good. If it does not pick back up soon, I'm gone!
Just started...
using CS this past week, and it is very, very easy and practical to use. You should love it!
I started with TT at 8 cpl - sm
and I was told by Debbie that top pay was 8.5 cpl, not over. Maybe it was the account I was on. Don't know. Just relaying what I was told. I really did like TT. I couldn't afford their benefits, and yes, it is my fault for not doing my homework. I
i actually just started with DRC ..
and just completed my first week. When I was offered a position, I was told that everything counts - spaces, characters, everything in expander. Considering it was just my first week with getting used to the system as well as formatting and dictators, I did very well - a hair below where we need to be for full time, which is not bad considering I relistened to all my jobs before sending it. That is my method of learning. I am happy:)
when I first started with MQ which sm
was then Transcriptiosn Limited, for years, I was a subcontractor given a 1099 and they supplied all my equipment. Probably weren't suppose to. Well, I leased it. Maybe that make a difference.
I started at 10 cpl with MDI-MA
NM
I started out at
8, then they gave me 9 because the account I was on was HEAVY esl, then switched to VA, which also pays 9. Did fine on the ESL account but can't make the new production requriments on the VA account. Oh, full time employee status.
Just started, but so far ...
I'm not having too many problems other than the usual just getting used to new things. I don't think WebCorrect is that slow. I've worked on worse, that's for sure. I've checked their line counts and found them to be accurate and they do include spaces/65 char lines.
I haven't been paid yet, so I can't comment on that.
Communication is very good. You can IM a question any time. I've never waited long for an answer. You do have to pay attention to who you're supposed to IM though.
Everyone I've encountered is very nice and professional. I might change my mind later, but so far, I think it's working out well for me.
I just started with them, but so far
Mary has been extremely flexible with the schedule. Just ask her. I would be willing to bet she would work with you. She is the easiest boss I have worked for yet and I have worked for quite a few:)
I started with them just a little over
a month ago and can't afford the $125 to quit.
Do they still charge you $125 to ship back the computer if you're there for more than 45 days?
Welcome! I just started...
recently myself. Does your account start with a C by chance?
started at ,12, now...
make 16.
I just started with SGS
So far I have no complaints. Im fortunate, I have a very easy account. I have not had any ESLs so far...well, I had one, but he had an English/British accent and was not difficult to understand. I think the platform you work with is dependent on the account you are assigned to. I am using a web-based platform and Word 2000. As for direct deposit, I do believe they told me they have it, but I could have confused them with another company I was entertaining simultaneously. Benefits are reasonable for individuals, the family price is a little pricey in my opinion at nearly $178 per pay. I have to do some serious typing to justify that big of per pay deduction and Im hoping I can pull it off because I need those benefits as a single parent.

I am just starting with them. If you want to email me I will give you what I know.
Just started
I just started with them and so far I like it. My account has been great. Everyone has been very nice.
Just started with them myself
but have you tried cut and pasting document into a Word document just to get a rough idea? Or is that what you did already?
Just started with them....
on a brand new account. It is a group of hospitals and there is evidently plenty of work. I am doing Emergency Department Reports, which there is a never ending supply of. I am brand new, so it has been kind of tough, but everyone is very helpful and encouraging.
That's all I know, hope it helps.
No, have not started yet, my first
year as IC. Employee prior to this with another company.
Just started...sm
I am working two jobs at this point as i wanted to feel things out before jumping in and the were understanding about that, number 1. The testing was not bad at all and was in line with the actual work difficulty. I do ortho so I don't know about the other testing, but I would imagine it isn't bad. Thus far, I have had plenty of work, QA is WONDERFUL--best i have ever seen by far. The internet platform takes a little getting used to if you are used to installed programs, but still not a major issue.
and when I started w/MQ they had 12,000+ MTs
