Really?? I wouldn't let them touch my system
When you are sitting and typing and all of the sudden something is being typed in your computer while you watch, you wouldn't either!
I wouldn't touch this post with a 10 foot pole. nm
:x
I wish people wouldn't be so encouraging. Then maybe we wouldn't constantly run

How do I get in touch with CIT?

Does anybody know how to get in touch with CIT
I have heard nothing but good about Charts in Time, but they don't have a website. I would like more information about CIT.
How do you get in touch with them?
What is their web address?
At my company I'd ask for $18; probably wouldn't get it, but I wouldn't go lower. nm

Moretti-How do I get in touch-sm
with them? I would like to apply there. Do they have a website where I can fill out an application?
Thanks, Dorothy
Jester's Touch
Hmmm, well, I'm still not sure what the root of their problem is, but I was assured up front by the owner that they are very organized -- apparently not! I've been involved with companies that had a lot of turnover too, and if this is their case as well, I'm just not interested in playing that game again so I suppose it's just as well...
how can I get in touch with MDI Maryland. thx

I believe 10-key touch means
You can enter MR# and account numbers fast using the number buttons on the side of your keyboard. Just put your middle finger on the 5 and look at the account number and enter it in without having to look at the keyboard, kind of like what you do with words. You are not actually calculating anything.
What's the best way to get in touch with Transtech?
Apparently they are growing beyond their office staff and don't want people calling them unless it is an emergency and they aren't quick to answer emails. I am not trying to start anything but seriously want to know the best way to get in touch with them where I can get a response in a timely manner. I am interested in going to work for them after hearing all the good things.
I got in touch with Alphastaff...
since they do the payroll and they sent me my w2 electronically today. The emails stating they were ready apparently came out weeks ago, even before the ones that were mailed last week, but for whatever reason I never received one.
Thank you so much! I will get in touch with you:) You are generous.
Ty.
The managers are so out of touch!
They are so counting their money and bonuses they make by overhiring and having great TAT, they completely forget that we are making zero dollars because each of us are battling for each job. How self-centered and ignorant is that? Like a table which shoots its legs out from under itself, the table will soon be unable to stand!
W2 -- Anyone know who I can get in touch with to obtain my W2 from SPi? Here it is almost ...sm
the end of February and I have yet to receive one. I have all I need to file taxes except this one and the on from Focus. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. TIA.
It is interesting that some of us here are actually in touch
Networking can truly work between MTs, even on an anon board, and this is an example of it! I am glad MTs share experiences... even though it sometimes gets rough here, I think that LTMT is an example of a poster who always gives honest answers...
The ACLU won't touch this....sm
Why you ask? Well, first off, she works, and secondly I am sure she is in this country legally.
The ACLU doesn't take on the causes of native-born Americans unless, somehow, religion or politics is involved. THEN they will come after you with all their heavy-handed tactics. Like the atheist who wanted the pledge of allegiance rewritten because the phrase under God was an affront to his daughter. And the people who want the cross in the Mojave Desert taken down. I could go on and on.
Gourdpainter...I truly am rooting for you. Make an example of the really frivolous lawsuit this is. And a parting thought (tongue firmly in cheek of course), I don't think your company is in too dire financial straits if they can afford to sue you. I would ask for a raise.
Good luck.
Yes, a couple years ago when looking I know I was in touch with them regarding....sm
a position and talked to the recruiter, I forget who it was, I will try to look in my records that I faithfully keep, but they were a recruiting company that works for many companies on contract as a middle man to help get prospective MTs, do some leg work, some phone calls, etc., weed things out, and send good prospects along, at least in my case with the lady I was speaking to.....have you spoken/communicated with them?
That's ridiculous. They must be completely out of touch.

I am desperate for work, but I won't even touch that. nm
xx
I'd love to stay in touch via email...sm
just click on my user name. Look forward to hearing from you! 
I gotta ya.. It really did sound like one certain company whom I will not name here as it will touch
off the debate and that gets old. Thanks for explaining.
Some companies prefer that - more of a personal touch. nm

It has a light touch though. I have had carpal tunnel
surgery and am very picky about keyboards. I was pleasantly surprised that the one they went (Dell) had such a light touch.
Congrats on the job - I think you'll be very happy.
current info on jester's touch? i searched
archives and the only posts are from 2004 and 2003. thx!
That's exactly what makes them special. They haven't lost touch with the MTs. (sm)
That's why I believe they are such a success. Seems like a lot of people are saying the same thing. I believe this will be my last MT job - they are great.
WHAT is Touch Type? All I find is a typing test...nm
?????????????
After getting in touch with ILHIMA and getting a copy, it was proven that the poster was wrong. sm
There are no spelling errors in the ad.
This person was trying to stir the pot for no reason and had people upset, thinking that an ad was run without sending it to KS for proofing.
I wouldn't do it again...
I was trained on one portion of an account (4 new hospitals they got), and it was GREAT! I loved it, told my husband I was SO happy working with them. Then, training ended ... I got switched to the hospital I was hired for (although no one told me that during training), and OMG - it's AWFUL. I can't make a dime. It's either all ESLs that I absolutely cannot understand (and I've been doing ESLs for a long time), or English-speaking guys that are terrible. My rate has gone down tremendously. And, if you have tech problems - you have to e-mail tech support and wait for them to respond. So, like this weekend, I have tech problems and am sitting here with my thumb up my nose waiting for a dopey teckie to get on my problem. I begged them, in an e-mail of course, to CALL me so we could resolve the problem and I could get back to work. Still waiting for that phone call, and it's been since yesterday evening. So, no $$$. About a month ago, I would have told you - GREAT place to work. Right now, I'd have to tell you to RUN AWAY!
I wouldn't do it
Diddles:
To me these things are a big red flag about a company. My reaction would be that they are very controlling and if they are trying to control your speech on the Internet there will be many worse things to come.
I believe a lot of these companies make you jump through hoops, i.e., testing, paper work, etc. before they give you any answers about specifics just so you WILL feel like you have already invested a lot in time and emotion and will not turn back, which is another very good reason to not allow them to silence us on the Internet. There is very valid information to be shared about companies which is neither bashing nor praising but just that - information allowing us to make a decision about whether a company would be a good fit for us or not - BEFORE doing all the testing.
You must have some doubt in your mind about this or you would not be here asking the question. Go with your gut instinct. There are many good companies out there who do not impose these types of restrictions. 
LOL - wouldn't last a day at TSI.. is that
supposed to be a compliment? LOL....
I wouldn't say that...sm
most companies do not say how much they pay because anyone that was any good would not even test then. They also do not base pay on how well you do on the test. You could ace it and still get offered 7 cpl because that is what they start at, no matter how much experience and knowledge you have. Raises are also few and far between. jmo
I wouldn't
It took 7 weeks of my waiting around to get work and then they finally got me on an account and there was no work. One problem after another. Passed between departments, no one ever giving the complete story.
Sad way to run a business in my opinion.
I wouldn't even consider it!
There are MUCH better companies out there...and ones that pay every 2 weeks as opposed to monthly! I would NEVER take a job that paid only once a month!
...nm up there. Pay wouldn't go over 9 cpl not even with
s
I wouldn't...
I am an experienced MT with 30+ years of experience. I just left this company. First of all, they outsource ALL of the good job types/dictators to India. Secondly, whatever the Indians can't do, they send to ASR. If you are happy to be relegated to an ASR Editor making peanuts, or transcribing the really, really bottom of the barrel reports, then go for it. If you are looking for respect, honest and open communication, plus decent pay, I wouldn't touch this with a 10-foot pole. I wouldn't send my worst enemy to Precyse.
you wouldn't know...
you are not morbidly obese. Until you have lived a day in my shoes, save your opinions for someone who cares.
And they wouldn't be the only
xxx
I wouldn't run s/m
I would politely tell that recruiter where he could put his job and that would be where the sun doesn't shine! This should tell you what kind of integrity this company has. Congratulations to you for doing the right thing and giving appropriate notice.
P.S...... and I wouldn't be doing this for a
xx
Me too, and wouldn't want to be anywhere else! sm
I can't believe how many MTs on this board are so miserable and getting SO ripped off! Direct Deposit is always on time for us at Webmedx, pay rate fair, good incentive plan. And I have plenty of work (most of the time, you have to admit that everyone runs out occasionally).
Why wouldn't you ask up sm
front in order to avoid wasting yours or their time what the pay scale was, or at least ballpark. The time allotted doesn't sound unreasonable to complete the test. If you bring experience and skill it's do-able. Someone who cannot complete in that time may not be the best match. Definitely ask up front next time about pay scale and if it's in line with your expectations. If not, you thank them anyway, but no thanks and move on.
I wouldn't be so sure about that,
Check the labels in all your clothes, check the boxes the toys came in, check everything. Very little we buy (even at godalmighty walmart) is made in the US. Just because you buy it here, don't be sure it's made here.
Exactly why I wouldn't do this with others.
Sounds like your mom and your sister want the benefits of having their own accounts (higher pay), but want someone to do the extra work for them. Not the type of people I would want to get into business with.
I wouldn't, because it seems that all
that is a joy in your life you would not be able to participate in. Our pets are just 4-legged children and it would take a lot for me to have to get rid of any of them. You do what you have to do, especially these days, but I would have to keep exploring options at this point.
I wouldn't think so...sm
Im having almost the exact same problem. Im short on work, have sent emails to owner, etc..no answer. Looking for another part-time, no luck so far.
I would think that would be beneficial to them..being you are already trained and will require little if any startup time.
WMX wouldn't be so bad if...
ChartMatrix wasn't as slow as molasses. Don't know anything about Enterprise though. Is it faster than CM? Any rad accounts for Enterprise?
you probably wouldn't want that job anyway.
Probably has a LOT of ESLs, so that is why they test that way, to see how you do. Of course, we are all cold testing and that is always daunting. I hope you hear from one of the other companies. 
I wouldn't say more than what has (sm)
been said. There are people from the company (not us peons) here daily and you are lucky to get what little info is given here. You can keep asking but I doubt very much anyone else is going to go into any more than what is here already.
I wouldn't do it.
Sounds like they are getting their work done for free.
Ten reports is an unusual number for testing purposes. Just 3-4 is more like it.
