I used to laugh out loud at the VR-produced

nightly news on the TV sets at my local gym. I'd be watching it while using the treadmill, elliptical trainer or StairMaster, and would occasionally belt out a 'Bwa-ha-haaa!' at something the VR had written. Got more than a few stares from my fellow gym-goers, who probably thought I was nuts. The humor of VR sure did make my workouts go by quickly, though!

Great incentive plan, but based on speed/lph not total lines produced. Works if you are fast.

OMG. Did you really sound that out loud? nm

For crying out loud
Why would you wait for weeks - are you new to this industry?
This is COMMON practice and I don't care how big or small the company is... Many are just advertising for clients they HOPE to get soon - many are poorly organized and/or UNDERstaffed for administrative purposes.
Make it a rule to apply for MANY jobs at once; you'll be lucky if two are hits and then you can choose the best fit for you.
Always ask up front: Do you tie payment for work done to payment received by your client?
Is this opening immediate or for the future?
If you ask the right questions up front and they don't perform, start sending more resumes ASAP.
Take it from someone who learned the hard way.
Loud and Clear.

OMG, I burst out loud on that one! NM

Shhh! Don't say that too loud!

Its a message board for cryin out loud!
To bad we can't come on here and state our feelings or vent our frustrations without having to worry about all this. Some posts are over the line, but most are just people who want a place to talk to others in the same boat they are. I think the ones who are trying to dissect the posts to figure out who they are written by need to spend a little more time working!!!
LL ahh c'com on. IF ans out THERE loud & clear, not riled up MTs
If know very well LL, if the ans were avail in first place and some MT did not know the ans, and posted upsetting things, he TRUE answer WOULD be posted by other MT and you know it.
People get upset not knowing, then speculation begins what else can they do.
Nice holiday spirit. For crying out loud.....
This is still a democratic country, is it not? Why is it that if people don't agree with YOU or the bandwagon cheerleaders for a company, they get bashed? I worked at TT and found it to match all of the complaints that are read on here. That doesn't mean it's not a good company - just not a good company for ME (and others, by the way). CHILL..................
And stop buying foreign cars for crying out loud. sm
Look at the 10s of thousands of workers who are being laid off from GM and Ford after giving decades of their lives. Thanks to all you people who buy foreign cars. 
Get off your high horse for crying out loud. She did not mention that it was a transcription company
ENCOMPASS

Employee assistance is available to support all staff and their family members at no cost. This confidential service addresses a variety of issues that may affect the quality of your work or personal life including stress, depression, anxiety, grief and relationship conflicts
Maybe YOU should do some research before you jump all over somebody. WHen a person just mentions a name, it doesn't necessarily mean a transcription company.
thanks for the laugh!! - nm

who's got the last laugh now ?
Ive been an MT for 13 years. I was an IC for 10 years, and a FTE for a local hospital for the last 3 years. I came back from vacation in June to discover my lovely boss was interviewing companies to outsource the MT department. He lied to us - told us not to worry - and then a month later our union received the '60 day notice' letter and we were out on our assess. I took a job as a unit secretary - and a $5 an HOUR paycut along with it, working 3-11 and alternate weekends. Am I crazy to do this. Well yes and no. I now have unlimited O/T, I'm keeping my awesome union benefits, building toward being vested in 2 more years, and just landed an IC MT job doing guess what: MY OLD JOB. The company that outsourced us hired me. I plan to rake in the bucks in the AM and do the b.s. job at night. 3-11 is half the work as a day job - plus you get the shift differential. Wish me luck !

*l* = laugh...nm

Better for your well-being to laugh than to cry
I for sure would understand if the tears fell, tho.
Laugh is on you..
Full-time job pays $24/hr. Can take up to 12 weeks PTO/yr. Work at home. ALL equipment covered by company including internet.
Part-time job pays .11/cpl.
TRUST ME, I'M A LOT HAPPIER THAN YOU ARE LOL
sorry, just had to laugh at that
I've posted on here for years and no one has ever accused me of being a recruiter or management. Just thought that was funny. Um... no, definitely not. My point was that they try to keep the accounts balanced well and avoid overhiring, so you may be well qualified and still not get a call back if the accounts are well staffed already, so don't take it personally.
Should I laugh or cry?

You can either laugh or cry,
OMG - Thanks for the laugh!
Tarnscription. I know you didn't mean to do it - but that is actually the PERFECT name for this junk sometimes. Tarnation!!! LOL!
Thanks for the laugh :)
I don't proof what I post on here, but your response is totally hilarous. If only they could drop in at 4:30 and start my super (hehehe - yes I purposefully spelled that wrong) :)
LOL thank you for the laugh nm
Thanks for the laugh.......nm

Okay, this made me laugh.
I worked on Vianeta years ago, and I have never been able to figure out why people who WORK on it can't SPELL it. It's a 7-letter word, how hard can it be?
Thanks for the laugh.. That was great..
Don't make me laugh
Don't let my ego get in the way of facts? How about, don't make such an assumption?
I didn't disagree with your original post, just suggested a different 'take'.
Well, at least I can laugh at my typos - sm
some of ya'll seem to take them way, WAY to seriously. (And to hopefully avert any more flaming about being sloppy in my work, I'm TALKING ABOUT silly little mistakes we make when we're dashing off quick posts & emails.) And do you really think my thread is actually TESTIER than some of the total ragging that's been going on whenever someone on these boards stands up and calls a spade a spade?
Not!
Don't make me laugh
How many INside TT staffers are on this board, anyway?
:)
Oh, swell! Should we laugh or cry??? NM

OMG I needed a laugh!!
and I'm writing them to show how YOU are behaving here!! LOL
There ya GO!!! LOLOL thanks for the laugh NM

LOL, thanks for making me laugh.SM
I used to work in a hospital too.
I love having the last laugh.
I am looking foolish? I called someone's bluff because they don't know their a** from a hole in the ground. They were completely wrong and just did not want to owe up to it. I just love this. Now I am finished.
Funny, Rad Guy. Thanks for the laugh.
.
Well, that's good for a laugh if nothing else...
Where do people get this stuff?!! Ridiculous.
I have to laugh when people...
want others to think they have stumbled onto something (hence, the BUSTED) when all it shows is they obviously missed the whole point from the get go. Good luck with that bingo hand though!
PRICELESS...thanks for the laugh! nm

this is so sad, but it gave me a big laugh, thanks,,,nm

That song is .. oh gosh, don't laugh
from Soundgarden and it's called Outshined. Early 90s, late 80s, I suppose, but I love that line!!
And proud of it baby. Laugh is on you lol

At least we can laugh at ourselves..That is important. Sometimes, I cannot believe I get paid ...
to type.
So very true. A good laugh. Thanks n/m
I don't meant to laugh at the company name...
but I just Googled it and the first hit was a newt--a salamander type thingy. Killed me! Was the company named with that intention? Your company's name was a 3rd hit...if it's any consolation.
LOLOLOLOL! Thanks. I needed a laugh. OSI QA, indeed!
:)
Toooooo funny - my laugh for the day!!! nm

Don't laugh but did you check AARP? sm
Our insurance went up and was nearly impossible to understand. I checked AARP's plans, they're comparable to what the company offers at about $25 more including dental and eye, and a lot less confusing. If the insurance goes up again next year and becomes more incomprehensible, it's AARP for me.
