I know exactly who the poster was talking about. If you aren't her, I wouldn't worry about it.

I worked with someone at a company that starts with an F who now works for TTS and oddly worked with that person both places (you know how small world the MT industry is). She is some kind of piece of mess and she drags misery with her everywhere --- that company, the TTS company and most definitely wherever she lands next. What you described is exactly what happened to that supervisor (who was just a team member at F company). Anyway -- it's obvious she thinks you are that person. If you aren't -- then why feed her fire?? If you are.... well then.....

I wouldn't worry about it
I think it's okay to read them even if you do not do housework. (LOL)
Oh, by the way -- not all housewives do housework either! (LOL)
I wouldn't worry about it
The thing is, they are great to work for. Don't concern youself with what if just deal with that if it were to ever happen. We have seen lots of MTSO swear they would never sell, yet money talks so you just never know.
I wouldn't worry too much about it....sm
eScription means about 90% VR and 20% typing IF you get 20% at all, may be 0% typing. ...VR on eScription sucks......have to kill yourself to make a decent line count and even editing 2500 lines at 0.03 cpl is ONLY $75. When I see eScription in any job ad, I just pass it up cause I know what they want MORE VR and LESS or NO transcribing.
no harm -- I wouldn't worry too much about it
the mod will take care of it. just try to remember -- anonymity is the key.
Don't worry about it, that poster sm
will probably wind up working for a company like this and complaining and b______g about it when they aren't making any money and paying their own taxes and tied to a computer at SC status! Sounds like they are a new dog and won't get it for quite a few years. If they are an old dog (which I think is quite funny) they obviously they havne't gotten it yet and like being treated like a slave.
As for me, I will do my EXCELLENT transcription and laugh all the way to the bank!
don't worry about the other poster, sm
she/he is just being nasty. No point in that.
I would move on. Wouldn't even worry about the pedal.
If they contact you for training, tell them you are extremely busy etc.
Maybe we aren't talking
not sure what kind of rate could result in $4.25/1000 words...but I'm doing much better than that...so far.
We aren't talking about that
We aren't talking about being an IC and sticking to a schedule. We are talking about something else.
ITA with poster below. You aren't ready to go
after your own accounts. You need to do some research, to be more confident. The questions you are asking indicate you haven't a clue and that isn't a good place to start. I don't know what your life experience is, or your experience as an MT, but you need a bit more experience under your belt to be able to get and keep your own accounts.
Are y'all sure you aren't talking about OSI?
.
Wouldn't they have to prove who the poster is and could
it being given to them by the administrator of this site? With providers such as AOL and Yahoo, that takes a court order. Is the private information of the people who post here at risk of being divulged to others not affiliated with the management of this site?
Also, how is it you come to know about this endeavour?
(this is not a flaming question, but one asked sincerely)
Aren't we talking oranges and apples right now? None of us know how many lines
we have been doing it all that long.
And people who are doing such as the person above at 2400 lines a day (?8 hours)...are those editing lines or are those transcribed lines?
Are those 2400 lines lines of of decent reports, or the reports that are going to be left after the easy ones are fed into voice recognition for editors?
This is not an easy conversation to have because there are too many variables.
I don't think this is what the poster is talking about.
it sounds like you just want a pat on the back for your exceptional wage.
Ok, poster was talking about TRS, not TTS. nm
I wouldn't leave without talking to your manager.
Maybe you could ask if they have an OPs-only position available, if you think you could build more normals that way. Give them a chance to work with you rather than jumping ship and taking a gamble that another company will be better.
not talking about the original poster

Meant to say "not the poster you were talking to" NM
xxx
Do you think all the headers and footers aren't getting counted? Lots of places aren't giving
s
I wish people wouldn't be so encouraging. Then maybe we wouldn't constantly run
.
At my company I'd ask for $18; probably wouldn't get it, but I wouldn't go lower. nm

Not talking about lines. Talking about what you actually
afsd
Why worry about it
If you know it wasnt you, why worry about it? Just let it go and then you cannot be accused of stirring the pot. You dont work there anymore so dont concern yourself with it. Just let it go so that it can be dropped.
Not to worry.......sm
this thread will be deleted the second Admin sees it.
You don't have enough to worry/think about, do ya?! LOL
Or are ya looking for a free meal through a lawsuit? LMAO
There ARE other factors at stake when hiring or not hiring employees other than where you live, dufus. Geez! LOL
Thanks for the laugh, though!
Don't worry, you probably won't either
x
Don't worry
I'm sorry that the OP is having a bad experience, but mine has been just the opposite and wanted you to know this. I never run out of work, quite the opposite actually. Also, I have found the management to be nothing less than professional and kind. Good luck in your decision. 
not to worry...
it all depends on the account you are working on. I have 1 account where I can do 2000+ in 6 hours; but on my second account, I can't get anywhere near that.
Don't Worry...
I have known the lady that started this company from scratch and if anything, she is honest, reliable and dependable--she would let you know if something were wrong and/or if you were in need of worrying. They are a very talented team @ TransTech.
That's something I worry about...
I worked for a smaller company before and when the work dropped, it dropped like a rock. I am just stuck as to whether to accept the job or go with the larger national. This is for editing.
Don't worry
TTS pay is so bad that their employees are from the bottom of the barrel. No good MT would work for them, couldn't afford to, so no company is going to keep using TTS because of poor work quality.
Don't worry (sm)
My accounts were all out this morning, but they are picking up pretty fast. Yes, you can work a holiday even if you are not scheduled and still get time and a half for all typed.
Should I worry
The company I work for offered benefits. Employees signed up and no word on the benefits. Now an email stating the benefits are there and have been there and we will pay back for the previous month. There was no way to use the benefits without the information so what is a person supposed to do?
Don't worry
I'm so sorry to hear this, but try not to worry too much. I know, easier said than done when the bills start coming in. There are many, many jobs out there though, and I think you will find something even better. I left Amphion a while back and am very happy with my new employer. Start applying and don't give up! Good luck to you!
Do not worry! sm
There is more than enough work to go around. You will be fine, and welcome to the team!!
Don't worry - soon we will be saying, (sm)
There's too much work!! I don't even have time to do my Christmas shopping. I've been busy all week too.
They are looking for something you most likely should not worry about.
This is a criminal investigation which all hospitals conduct. They could also do a drug test anytime, you know. I do not believe they care about a normal person's skeletons. They are looking for stealing because we have their equipment mostly. I know because I have undergone these checks and worried too, but that was unfounded. Don't be silly and quit a place where you have worked for so long or that you like. They are not nosing in your past at all. They are simply contacting government agencies, etc. to see if there are outstanding arrests, etc. Now, if you are on the lam, well, then...
MT2, don't worry about it...
Their ads are good. If you aren't familiar with them, it is perfectly natural to think it's a great opportunity for some new person. I have never worked for them but I have heard over time how they use the new MTs and never give them a chance to earn any money.
Working inhouse is the nice coperate world... coming here is like coming to a street fight, a lot of sarcasm, got the claws out a lot. it is okay to research a company, look at the job board and maybe help out a newbie as you were trying to do but don't stay long enough to catch the sarcasm virus.:) Oops, my time is up. Gotta go...catch you later.:)
Oh I do worry....
And like I said, I help out when I can, but sometimes I just need my day(s) off. I don't know what else to do. I just cannot literally work every day of the week. I will work several days in a row, but it gets to a point where I need a break. I don't know what else can be done here except maybe offer an incentive for people to change their schedules to Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and have the rest of the week off. I think there are a few that would go for it and it would even out the coverage.
Not to worry because I don't think anyone would want to
x
Don't worry about it ....
It is just someone who is trying to create a stir on the board. Ignore them and hopefully they will go away peacefully. 
You should worry. As more and more SM
goes to VR, the people who refuse are left with less work. The work that is left is awful, the fast Americans and the most unintelligible ESL.
Hello??!! I'm the original poster! I think I can respond to the poster who replied to my original
nm
Can't worry about the future right now...
My mortgage is not due in the future, it is due in the present. I cannot cut all my bills by 40% until Transcend figures it out so I have to make $ to pay my bills now--not later. Anyway--gotta go type for Webmedx, like I said. I have to pull myself away but will be back on later this evening. Good luck to all of you, and I truly wish you the best!!!!
Dont worry,
I never got a phone call, but got my packet today.
Don't worry about it. Those who really want/need jobs
Just be glad you figured it out now.
Don't you worry about us, Holly!

Worry about your own attitude
MTs raises, bonuses, TV-habits and/or chat room time are between her and her supervisor and none of QAs business. And if MTs want to share on an MT board their positive or negative, past or present work experiences/pet peeves that's also no business of QAs and neither is it their place to ''approve'' or ''disapprove'' with their condescending nasty tirades. Get off your own behind, worry about your own nasty attitude, and go ''check'' something.
Worry about quality - not LPH
I know of a girl who can type triple the number of reports as other MTs, but it is obvious that she does not proof read her reports because they are full of major errors. That could be detrimental to patient care. If you're fast and accurate that's great, but you need to be concerned about quality above all. Once you are familiar with the dictators the speed will come.
If you have 90 days don't worry about it
NM
Don't worry, be happy!
Sorry about the corny phrase. No, I don't think yo have anything to worry about. They wouldn't tell you you were hired and then just forget about you. It will probably show up today or tomorrow and be well worth the wait. I have been here since September, and just love the people there. I have absolutely no problems or complaints. Sorry to be another TT cheerleader, but it truly is a great company to work for. Good luck to you!
