It has been a well-spread

In Reply to: What happened regarding cancer? nm - considering them
rumor that an MT with this company has cancer and is being hounded about her line counts. Not cool IMO. Knowing management the way I do, I am not surprised.

QA spread
Have been MT for last 25+ years...QA for the last 12 years has been constant with all employees providing negative feedback consistently. It will be forever. Used Voice Recognition for last 1-1/2 years........
tricky stuff if mgr not transcription oriented or at least with knowledge base re MTs.
Now is all about the Numbers....cancels out passion for the process.
Whoever spread that rumor
I've been paranoid ever since the pay cut rumors post - thanks, rumormonger for spreading needless misery!
Are all of their accounts out of CA or spread across the country? TIA (NM)

They absolutely do not! Please don't spread unfounded rumors like that.

Go spread your lies somewhere else. This is utterly false. sm
There are three people who do the training, and it is very thorough. How would you know anything about the owner? First of all, it is they not she. Secondly, I have worked at KS for 3 years and have never had any contact with either of them.
I am training to be a lead transcriptionist, so I have talked to a lot of managers, other leads and transcriptionists. All are very busy, and the accounts are not overstaffed. Every one of the more than 20 people I have been in contact with are very happy.
There have been no accounts lost in the past several years. If you were really an employee, you would know that no one has pulled an account and that there are new accounts constantly.
Broken promises? Very vague, don't you think? The employee book spells everything out. There are no secrets.
Either they let you go for one reason or another and your are bitter or you were never hired.
I think that Keystrokes is the most improved company I have ever seen discussed here or on other boards. They did have problems when they started but those are in the past. Current employees are either happy or being worked with to make them happy.
I am looking forward to being a lead and to staying with Keystrokes as long as they will have me.
Risking cancer spread waiting on ins
I was saddened to read that you are risking the potential spread of cancer by waiting for your insurance to cover testing and treatment.
First, I think the 12-month waiting period would make it Dec 2009 rather than 2010, but, still, waiting til Dec 2009...geez...I hope you reconsider what the consequences are.
You might check into other options for paying for testing/treatment, including extended payment plans, public or private financial assistance, loans, whatever it takes. This is your health and your life that you are risking by delaying. Is that worth the price?
I'm thinking about all the people who have lost their lives because an otherwise treatable cancer was not caught early enough.
I'm sorry for your situation and hope I haven't sounded preachy. Just hope you will reconsider your options. Best wishes.
That is good news! Glad you got to spread

what kind of attorney did u all hire and in which state? What if u are spread
all over the US and there are like 8 that were not paid? Do we get an attorney in the same state as the loser who did not pay us? Or what is your advice there? What did u do? How much did it end up costing u? Plz reply via email if you want.
Ditto to Queenie. My accounts have Overtime as well. Don't spread lies. sm
You need to ask for more work or another account. I have NEVER run out of work, but, I also have 15 accounts in my profile. Don't complain about running out of work when you can ask for more and get more.
Thanks a million!! I guess the spread sheet confused my eyes. :)

That's going to be nuts...I do ASR work too, plus work split shifts. We'll NEED a spread shee

Most want 20 hours over 5 days, but it could be more, or it could be spread over 4 days. nm
