Constantly ran out of work to QA and was expected to type in order to make any money.

Not sure why you are complaining. You make NO money doing QA for DSG, typing is the way to go.
....and then there is there fabulous HAHAHA $12.50

Downtime? hahaha

There has been no mention of that and I'm sure it wont happen.


When the system is fixed, the most we'll get is double the amount of emails telling us how much work there is and how we all need to give us food/sleep/bathroom time to get it caught up.


I know how to do ESLs hahaha
Where did you get the impression that I do not know how to do ESLs!  I have done them for years at above 99% QA for crying out loud but 80% you cannot make a living doing, at least the kind of living I want!  I am only willing to do 20-30% and have never settled for less....  My question was about VR, not ESLs.
hahaha welll.. (sm)
I'm a tier III and still don't get paid for op notes, so don't feel toooo bad - my cpl is less than yours. ;)

Oh great - Another psychic employee!! HAHAHA
How about just saying yes, it is 70% of your line rate instead of making up rumors.
Hahaha, don't hate me, but I have the beautiful NJA screen right now!!
And I am very happy to see it. Off to drink a hot cup of coffee and bask in the warmth of the morning sunshine.

Ta-ta.
Amen to that.. and we are mad as heck are not taking it anymore...HAHAHA

You're right! Hahaha My typo totally messed up the meaning!
Yes, MQ is aware of my other position. I was very up front with them when I took their offer. Spheris probably would not be happy about my situation, I agree.

My other comments were made because no matter what I post, someone has got to be interested in what I'm doing or not doing, whether they think it is right or not, etc.

My whole post on this thread was an answer about great companies. I posted. Then, if you'll go back and look at this entire thread, I am the one getting all the virtual "you can't do that" complainers on my back.

It's not anyone else's business. One of the OPs started it I suppose with the trying to tell me I can't post on this forum because I work for Spheris and I can't use their computer. Then others chime in. Then others start in with what they think I can and cannot do.

It's none of anyone's business. I wasn't addressing any of those subjects whatsoever.

I seem to be prime fuel for the flaming activities, regardless of the subject of my posts. Even if I respond to others, 9 times out of 10 I get flamed and for other subject matter most of those times.

Hahaha, you are right in your answers to some of the other posters. You and I are having an adult conversation and understanding each other well, even if we disagree. THAT is how it should be.

As I answered you somewhere in this same thread, I understand what you were bringing to light for others who may not realize about working for more than 1 company. It is a gamble. I agree wholeheartedly.

It isn't just the competition between Spheris and MQ though. That expectation is with other companies as well, maybe not all, but most. And most, if you read the employee handbook imply that they do not want their employees on forums like this.

One of the OPs stated that I signed a contract with Spheris forbidding me to be on this forum. No ma'am. That simply isn't true. I went back and looked at everything I've signed. I've signed no such contract. There may be an implied policy but I have not signed any such contract.

I personally think that each company has really good aspects. I can also see where each could improve. That will be with any company though. As long as I am well paid and have flexibility and opportunity, I'm a happy clam.

Hahaha! Pitiful and ridiculous comment. A lot of posters, as 1 poster even mentioned
in this thread, immediately stop reading a post full of GRAMMAR mistakes, NOT typos, before getting the 'issue.'

How can one respect the opinion of a poster whose grammar is a catastrophy, especially from an MT?

The 1st question that pops into my head is, 'How did this person get an MT certificate?' I am not talking about typos, incorrect grammar only.


Oh how silly of me! Thanks! (nm)

Silly!
In France all they do is strike and riot! 
silly me...
I thought this board was for discussion, as in two sides of the issue, not just complaining, and for sharing among our profession.

I am not judging anyone having a hard time making ends meet. I am simply saying some people have got lousy attitudes. They would rather complain than do anything to improve their situation. Case in point, how sad that you think the purpose of a discussion board is simply to complain and how sad that you have no one else to talk to - like a person whose face you can see. But frankly, if someone thought my only purpose was to listen to them complain, i guess i wouldn't want to talk face to face with them either. It's not that I don't have anything to contribute; it's just that you don't want to hear anyone who actually is satisfied in their job or thinks changing is better than wallowing.
Hahaha. Good April Fool's Day joke but gotta break the news to ya,
:+
This is kind of silly, isn't it?

I agree with the poster who said that people are entirely too quick to use the term racist.  At any rate, I think enough has been said.  


I was just being generally silly - but not
sure who my cohorts are! I assure you, I'm a lone jokester.
such a silly comparison.
While clarification from a supervisor is always a good idea, to compare asking for input here from other MTs to ''flagging down strangers on the street'' is pretty silly. (about as ridiculous as declaring it shows ''rampant mental illness'')
don't have to be a psychiatrist also to see this is silly ... sm
woohoo ... of 28 lines one day and this and that .. BFD.

Trust them and stay with them and work your fingers off insteady of coming here and trying to stir up trouble ......... or ........ move on and find a company you can trust and don't have to perform 20 different line counting programs to verify .. sheesh.

I'm glad Friday and Saturday are my days off ... this makes me tired ... LOL
I feel silly for saying this, but sm
I really have literally cried a time or two when yet another CP popped up I had never seen before and I could see the next job was yet a different one I had neer seen before and neither one would I likely see again.

I used to be able to transcribe 2000 to 2200 lines per day and made excellent money last year (I was one of the 2006 cheerleaders) but this past pay period, I am lucky to get in 1700 lines a day. I know that's still over the req, but it isn't good enough for me. My DH is a good breadwinner and we are comfortable and not in financial trouble, but the lack of desperation does not mean I am willing to be treated in such a cavalier manner, particularly when I am certainly not cavalier about the work I produce.

I have worked for other companies (non-MT) before that have had new CEOs or have been bought out and the same thing happened with all of them. Every time I hear about major changes going on I cringe. Last year's changes turned out to be great for me but beginning in April of this year, when all my accounts went ASR, things began to slide (I can type MUCH faster than edit ASR) and on July 1, it all went to Hades. I know ASR is a permanent fixture so I've gotten used to that, but the World Wide Pool is another matter.

I have applied several places. I have heard from two. But it was Lee I was really interested in. Unfortunately, I have only five years' experience so I can't compete with yours. I don't begrudge you this opportunity, though. We will both end up with something better, regardless. :-)
I DO WORK THERE SILLY!!!!!
Obviously you DON'T....LOL!!!!!!
Now what was silly about my comment?

I just wanted to make sure that the company was being plugged by an ACTUAL employee.  I'm glad you are happy there at Axolotl. 


You silly girl!
nm
I agree about this being a bit silly
Who knows who posts these things? It could be a very well connected person who owns another MTSO who is a friend of someone who got the e mail. We don't know who how people heard about this e mail. So to say it is someone working at TT now is not necessarily true. And about the guy being foreign, give me a break. The guy has a name from Europe. Guess what, my name is European and my family has been here for over 100 years. Someday I hope that people just wait and see what happens before they begin to panic and post here.  If you run out of work, call and ask for more. They answer the phones.  If you are upset and worried about the new company, call the new HR person, she is available.  If you have a concern call and talk to your supervisor, I have.  If you want out get out. But as the other poster said above, it says in our agreement with TT HR that one of the rules of the handbook is no rumors.  Communicate with the supervisor. If you have a beef, get on the phone! I myself am a bit fed up hearing TT praises, then TT bashes. Like this place gets bipolar sometimes. Now I am off to work, which I have because I communicate with my sup. See ya.
This is getting silly now. Please use your common
Volunteering is not illegal in and of itself. Let's see, I could volunteer to bake donuts for a PTA cake sale. But if I volunteered at home to bake donuts for the local bakery to sell daily, that would be illegal. Bakeries are regulated and have to meet rigorous health dept codes, etc. If you're a putz, you can volunteer to transcribe for an MTSO, but again, it has to be set up professionally, and NO I am not sure that it is legal to work for free. I can't go into ShopRite and volunteer to work for the day stocking shelves. What if something happened while I was working there? Slip and fall? It just isn't legal. Then you compare volunteering to an internship program. Apples and oranges. Of course, an internship program is a different entity and whoever was running one would already know all the legal guidelines and have them in place. But, NO you cannot transcribe medical records on a volunteer basis while someone else farms you their work on an informal basis, while they get paid for it, submitting it to someone else who hired THEM, not YOU, to transcribe it. Its called subcontracting, and its a legal matter, not like volunteering to walk somebody's dog for them while they are on vacation. Please, please consider our career a profession.
Where DID you come from? You have me laughing myself silly!
Love the comparison with MQ and MDI-MD...
Probably sounds silly but...
I used to think a coupon for a free pizza once in awhile would have been nice, ha-ha. I'm not hard to please but I know you're right, somebody will always find fault with a gift.
Your post is really silly...sm
she has to have your SS# to cut you a check.
Not VR, silly goose!
''Exciting new technology!  This is all ''newspeak'' and George Orwell would be so very proud. 
What a silly concept
You make a case that wages are stagnant - but miss that people might not be happy about that?

Perhaps you are not affected by wages that don't increase while the cost EVERYthing does - but the vast majority of people are affected.

And do I have it right? You are complaining - about people complaining?
I don't know about silly, but it is causing OSi grief.
mission accomplished!!
Well that is just silly, unless you are getting round the clock pay.
And I highly doubt that. I was a recruiter, doesn't pay all that great.
That is honestly a silly comment now on top of the

other mess. You do it, not the cents per line? Honestly, its just fact that if one were making 10 cpl versus 7 cpl there would be a difference. This is too weird.


Silly - they'd rather whine - we have tons.

nn


OMG I had the SAME reaction to this silly job post
I wouldn't work for *that* person for 10 cpl, much less 7 cpl!

I adore animals, and care deeply about my work, but the ad said much more about the person supervising/managing than they may have realized.
Not management, think it silly to ask OP question
x
Not that silly, a lot of people forget about
It kinda slips your mind when you're so used to communicating via email. I've found, though, that even if I can't get a reply on email, I get an answer on the phone pretty quickly. I'm sure some companies get bogged down in emails so a phone call also shows them you're serious. Plus, if your email contact isn't terribly helpful, you might get someone on the phone that's more helpful anyway.

You're welcome! Good luck!
Don't you two think you are being just as silly as the ones you label as "negative?" sm

If you want to say hello, why not talk via Yahoo Messenger, which everyone in the company uses.  I saw your names on the company-wide emails, so why not just do your handshake there?


I think both sides are being a bit silly here.  There are good and bad points to any company, and those who ferociously defend without acknowledging the bad points are just as wrong as those who ferociously attack without acknowledging the good points.  Actually, watching this today, I have to say the good guys look worse than the so-called negative types.  Your bashing of them is just as negative as the things you accuse them of being.


I myself am Switzerland in all of this.  It is just a paycheck.  I don't care if it comes from India or Des Moines, Iowa.  If it is accurate, on-time, and a decent wage, I am happy.  I don't have a problem with the headquarters being in India.  The people there are sweet and kind and do their jobs professionally -- what more could you ask? 


I have the week off, but I think ALL of you should get back to work and quit trying to one up each other.   Just my opinion ... a**es and opinions .. we all have them.
