but I'll answer anyway. I work Sun-Thu on 1 account at MDI. I am committed to 800 lpd but my account is always needing extra help. This Saturday alone, my day off mind you, I got in an extra 800 lines. Now before I am accused of stealing other people's lines, we were asked to work extra on the account to keep it in turnaround time. My hours vary from day to day - but since I'm only committed to 800 lpd, I can usually get them in in under 4 hours. I generally work an hour in the morning (9-10), 2 hours in the afternoon (1-3) and 1 hour in the evening usually after 9 or 10. No weird graveyard hours or anything.
I guess your experience at MDI would really depend on the account you get. I guess I must be one of the lucky ones because my experience with MDI has been great thus far. I hope it continues. For those who are hitting a rough spot, I hope it smooths out.
I really don't have anything negative to say about MDI. For that, I'll be bashed on this board, but that's okay because I've got tough skin.

Don't let the naysayers get to you. I have plenty of work now too. sm
It IS a good idea to have a backup account, though -- you might ask for one if your work starts to dry up. I have been there for about 5 years now and had 2 accounts, and recently added a third.
Glad to see someone else is happy at MDI-MD. I think it is a great company. D truly does care about the MTs, and she is one of the few people willing to pay exceptional people an exceptional salary.
Amen! I learned to just ignore all the naysayers on here..(nm)

We give up on your naysayers. Great company, but if you choose to believe it's fishy, your loss.

Don't let it get to you. Every day it is a new company that is being bashed. sm
Those of us who are happy at Keystrokes know we have a good thing going. Those who either didn't cut it, were never hired or continue to job hop are never going to be happy anywhere or if they are, it is for a short time and they come on here and bash the company they went to.
One of the posters on here is someone that I know well and she used to post positive things about how she left MQ for KS, left KS to go back to MQ, left MQ again to go to KS and now complains that they did not give her a good account. Would you? Personally, I would make someone who leaves and comes back prove themself. I just listen to her vent when we talk and move on, knowing that the next time we talk, it will be to vent about the new company she went to. And so it continues ...
Please tell me where I have constantly bashed
Axolotl. Do you have me confused with someone else?
That post bashed 7 companies, and
went on to say the good companies never get mentioned. Well whose fault is that? I'm working for one of the 7 due to word of mouth. If you had posted about a better company, maybe I'd have applied there. But do you actually know what these better companies are? Instead of bashing companies, you should be praising the good ones. Now that would be helpful!
Otherwise it sounds like you're just telling fairy tales.
I am still really amazed about that MT who bashed the co this week for being fired because of her
poor quality! You rarely see an MTSO fire an MT because of poor quality (boy would I love to see it having seen some of the poor quality that is sent to the facilities) because there are some who are just given so many chances that they do not deserve. They need to be weeded out and continue to be weeded out and for one to publicly come on here and bash an MTSO for doing what they had to do really has stuck in my mind.
I still think MTSOs really need to be a cut above the MTs when it comes to going off but yes I do understand that sometimes they just have to say something.
I agree! Too busy to be on here and too disgunted with being bashed to want to open myself up sm
to that anymore. Happy at Keystrokes, that's all I need to say.
They won't. It is common for a company to be bashed into the ground once it seems people are hap
I knew it was going to happen once I saw the positive posts about Keystrokes. Some people obviously get sick thrills from stirring the pot.
I hope they're happy now. I am sure Keystrokes will miss out on some great MTs because they won't apply due to the posts that have been put the last few days.
Can't anyone accept that there really is a good company out there?
Email me for details. Don't feel like getting bashed on here today!

but a great post - my company gets bashed all the time too.
nm
Nope. We just get sick and tired of our company getting bashed
at every turn. We love this place and have run out of patience with posters like this who clearly have no idea what they are talking about.
Have you never lost your patience?
I'm guessing the reason these companies won't put their names is afraid they will get bashed.
I'm not sure why else they wouldn't be proud enough to put their company name. Pretty sad..
I so wholeheartedly agree with you. Don't work for KS but work for SS - another company bashed
Works GREAT for me and I love SS. I never really care what the negatives are as I have found they are usually people that can't make their lines, don't work the hours they commit to or just overall do not care!
