If you aren't there, you aren't there. That's the plain truth.

To: Used to be Happy,

You are describing a mirror image of your exact work habits, the ones that resulted in your moving to another company. Good Luck!
The PTO is according to your length of service
I work there and get 7.08 hours per check. I haven't noticed less PTO. My complaint is the HEALTH INSURANCE for MTs (NOT Management). Ours stinks this year. NO RAISES. Any extra money we make will go to paying medical bills the INSURANCE DOESN'T COVER and RX which is NOT covered anymore. They give us $500 to spend for the whole year and that's it. Then the deductible kicks in and it is $5000!!!! I am checking other companies.
No need to apologize for length!
I am hoping for logical thinking in-depth reasoning such as yours. :)
I HAVE FOUND HEAVEN

I know we all hear a lot of negative feedback on many companies for many different reasons, whether it be benefits not being paid, money not being paid, jobs not staying in the U.S.  I tried four different companies before I found MDI and made it my home.  I have never worked with such a great group of caring, supportive people.  I have been transcribing for more than thirty years, on and off, and have found everything I could want in a company, especially working from home.  They always have support and someone always answers the phone when you call, you stick to your schedule and you don't have extra people on there taking your work away, you get paid on time, and get time off when you need it with a little advanced notice.  The thing that totally blew me away was receiving a package from them the other day with a big thank you card for hard work, and a box full of goodies.  I don't remember getting that from employers when I worked on site.  If you are looking for a company that keeps their word and has happy longterm employees, MDI is the place to be. 


LOL ... Heaven help us if there is a volume II ... eek. nm

I would love 78 cpl. I would be in hog heaven.

Thanks. Sounds like Heaven to me. nm

No my account is not from heaven--
rather, that other place! It is a high ESL kinda place.
depending on length of the reports,
that is 2 less Americans employed in their own country and the taxes that would be collected for that income missing. How patriotic of Transcend. These companies only think of their own pockets, never the needs of the citizens of the country in which they live. Selfish, greedy, .......................
Depends on the length of the report
If their accounts dictate short reports you come out ahead if not they do...

Make sure the per report pay is decent

My mother used to say oh for heaven sakes....
Even though a company does not offshore does not mean they won't tomorrow, so applying to another company will not solve this dilemma (if you want to call it that).  I don't think everyone should quit DRC or whatever the new name is now.  I think you all should be just fine!  This is not the end of the world.  Who knows?  This could mean better benefits.  I wish you all the best, but I wouldn't jump ship if I were you unless things start to go downhill.  If you like the company and know your accounts, why should you?  The glass is half full, not half empty, that's what I always try to say!       Stay strong.....

Depends on the length of the gross line. If it's
set as a 65-character length line also (as in same margins, same length), then 8 cpl gross is equivalent to about 10 cpl per 65 characters. But if the gross line margins are set for a really long line, then you might not come out much ahead. Did that make sense?
Generally the length of time you are required to keep sm
records on file for a former client is codified in your contract with them.
Focus Infomatics is outsource heaven.
The hospital I typed for, for the last 6 years just left MQ for this company on 10/31/2007. I was crushed, so I found where they went, decided to apply, got a call back from Focus, but decided before I did anything, I would investigate and it was all negative.

I would rather die than work for anyone who outsources.

My old hospital is a trader. I hope they burn!!!
Yes but the amount depends on the account, length of time, etc.
I have been happy for two years!
Wouldn't do it. You'll end up with lines that are in the 70 and 80 chars. long length. They
