I can see why you had such a hard time. If this post is representative of the quality of your work, then perhaps you should seek another field in which grammar and punctuation are not such an issue.

I'm not judging...GEEZ
It just gets frustrating to read these down and out posts about MQ going under, we're all in trouble, its doom and gloom. There have been a lot of changes, I have had my bitter moments too, but I have nothing to fall back on. If you people do not have PROOF of what is GOING to happen, do not post false threats!! This is our livelihood, and its trickling away bit by bit. All I see is a bunch of people complaining nonstop, if you're that unhappy, why don't you do something about it? Either that or go along with the changes. This industry is going downhill, we are expendable, I feel that our days are numbered too, but i'm going to do whatever work is thrown at me until that day. I'm a remote worker, just a number who has no voice. My supervisors are secretive and down-talk me as well, but it does no good to come on here and threaten us and scare us all into believing we are this close to ending up flat broke and on the streets. You people posting such things, copy and paste evidence that the changes are going to be for the worse in regards to MQ pay plan, accounts switching, MQ being bought out, getting rid of seasoned MTs. PROVE IT!!! Or else you're causing a stir for no definitive reason for all of us who are under a lot of stress and uncertainty as it is!
Well, judging by your terminology,
I'd say you were with MQ currently. As a fellow MQer (just gave notice yesterday), I picked up on the c-pool term ASAP. At any rate, I also have 10 years experience and do about the same work types you do. I've interviewed with 3 different companies in the last few months and the offers ranged from 8.5 to 9.5. Benefits on the lower offer and IC status on the higher offer. I did notice that the companies were more interested in my cardiology procedures more than anything, so if you have that experience, you might want to bring it to their attention. I didn't push much with the lower offer since it required a schedule and 30+ hours per week, etc, which I really don't want. I did push on the higher offer to see if I could get an increase if I maintained a higher line count than the minimum required and got it.
Hope this info helps your search. Gotta get outta that place!!! 
I am NOT judging anyone skills sm
by the number of years on the job. You have taken this way out of context and I am not even going to address the diatribe. Well, except for one thing.....your comment about folks making the same wage no matter how many years they have been in the business.
If you were in another profession and you were there 20, 25, 30 years and someone came in to the office making the same as you or maybe even more, wouldn't you be just a tad irritated? My goodness why have pay scales?
I am so glad you have never had to ask for help or ask a question on the word board etc, arent' you just special? I don't know an MT alive that hasn't had to ask a question now and then no matter how many years they have been doing this. Sometimes you just can't find what you are looking for. Granted, probably 99% of the time folks can find things on their own but no one is 100% perfect that they never have to ask a question.
What you don't realize is the opinions you have really DO come from being a newbie. When you have been in this for years and years you will know that not all things are so perfect. You really do have the know it all attitude of a newbie. You may be an exceptional newbie and one who is a very quick learner, reserches to find what you want, but you still have the attitude!
Actually with that attitude, you really do need to ALWAYS be working at home alone because you would never last in an office full of MTs. There are folks who do need mentoring, know they need mentoring and are not afraid to ask for help. So glad you never make a mistake, can ALWAYS find what you are looking for and never need to ask questions. You are just to perfect for words!
Judging by what's written in those paragraphs,
and my observations when my company merged with another, chances are very good that many of the people on those 'lists' are MDI management.
Find out what they pay the majority of their MTs. Chances are, if you make more than that now, eventually you won't.
uh, judging by this complete thread, sounds like a lot

Stop ASSUMING and judging and blaming
Who are YOU to say why people may need the services of a payday loan place?
YOU really need to apologize: Before you accuse, ridicule and abuse, TAKE A WALK IN THEIR SHOES.
Judging from previous posts they are a horrible company.
THey offshore big time. If you'll search the archives you'll find lots on them.
My post should say the post above not the post below, Sheryl's post to be specific. nm

It's a "fishing" post. Same post a few days ago with numerous errors

You are not allowed to post their link on this site. Post

Read Spherson's post below, who admits, in the post, they do pay it.

Peachy, your post is interesting, but my post now is irrelevent but
A few weeks ago I went to my clinic where they had recently implemented EHR or EMR, whichever you call it, and the doctor's back was to me the whole time he and I conversed because his nose was stuck in his laptop. To me, it felt a little more impersonal, but I understand he was doing what he had to do, but it seems like the bedside manner may go to the wayside if the doctors can't even look at you when they are asking you questions or you are speaking to him/her. I know this is relevant to your original post, but just an interesting fact that I had not anticipated. Anyone else experience this?
This is why I NEVER post my cpl. I'll post the range of
what the company pays, but NEVER what I make. I know that I make more than probably 70% of the people there, because they know I produce a client ready report and that I can do anything they throw at me. We don't have levels, but I guess if we did I'd be at the highest level. Telling how much you make isn't so bad, but when people know what company you work for and then what you make that isn't a good combination. The ONLY people I have ever discussed what I make with, are my husband and my MTSO owner. Talking about your salary/pay is enough to get your fired in lots of companies.
Post edited -- DO NOT POST NAMES. (SM)
If you continue to post names, e-mail addresses, or phone numbers on this website, you will be banned.

One post was another "run" type of post and the
the recruiter. Once you are in with the company, the recruiter has nothing to do with you or your job. I want specifics about problems with THE JOB, not the recruiter. Specifics such as no or late checks, line counts being messed up, no work, taking bennies away with no explanation. Things that matter, not the recruiter.
everytime you post, where ever you post
unless you go through an anonymizer, your IP address can be traced back to you, even through the guises of this web site. There are web sites you can find on the internet to do this for you, or if you are 18 years old and like to hack, it's an easy enough thing to do.
I post a pay range, DOE; however, most don't post..
I wish some MTs would start thinking about the business aspect of the industry. For example, this is a public site, so go to Google or another search engine and type [the co's name] and per line, and voila! now everyone knows how much you pay your MTs.
Post removed, you can re-post.

Last post
No, after I read a followup yesterday that said there were apologies and answered Michelle, I realized that and someone said to just get back to work and they were right.. even an apology was too much, plus it would look like I was just tagging along after JMO, which is what you are accusing me of now.
I just didn't understand where the posts went, it was odd, and I wanted to reiterate some things (the point I mentioned earlier, about seeing BOTH sides), but I see it really doesn't matter WHAT I say, you've already made up your mind about me and my motivations without even knowing me. Why am I explaining myself to you? I dunno.
It doesn't matter. Good luck to you and don't worry, God will take care of/deal with me, and I ask him to bless you all too.:)

Would you please e-mail me at jcarros213@aol.com. I "really" need information.

WHY DOES MY POST
On Greenlight Transcription keep getting erased?! 
WHY DOES MY POST??
mine got erased too..I asked a question about eTransPlus and now it's gone???
Above post
Oh my.....I didn't know Wal-Mart had "greaters". I thought they were greeters! I am sure they are hiring though so you should do well there.
Why don't you sign your posts? Are you also the one that said SoftScript is the worst? Wow....there a lot of worsts out there. Guess we will all starve.
Will you post when you do?
Are you a SS transcriptionist? Will you post your acknowledgement of e-mail?
It gives YOU something to post about right?!
What else would you post about?! LOL
I like your post!!

To Can't Say: Regarding your post below about
Can you say which recruiter told you that Transcend was buying MQ?
Where did you see this post?
asdf
If you post their name they probably won't get any
resumes. This way they'll probably get a few, but hopefully the MTs will be wise enough to turn them down.
Another good reason not to respond to a blind ad is that it could be the company you are currently working for - or you were working for (LOL).
I appreciate your post...perhaps I used....sm
the wrong word of undercutting, but when I became an MTSO 9+ years ago......a national was charging 13-18 cpl to the client and so I went ONE cent below that, 12 CPL.....and I get the work, have had clients for all this time...and I work for a national part-time....
Thank you for taking the time to type all that....much appreciated!!
And you might want to post
your message in reply to the correct message. I am not oops.
I have only posted one message in response to this person.
Anyone could post on here and say they are from
Whose to say that poster posing as KS Team Leader or such is not someone specifically out to do KS harm?
For crying out loud, people -- just someone with a mean streak and nothing to do can get on here and cause harm. And the reason they can cause it is because most people on here will believe any post they read.
Now THAT is sad.
sorry about my post above, was

I think they are trying not to post here except
Still doesn't make any sense at all to come to a public forum and ask these kinds of questions.
I'd be reluctant to hire someone who had no more IQ than to do that.
PS: Just saw the post below, anyone do QA for them?

Thank you for this post!
Your post is 100% correct--disgraceful disrespect for the MT whose skill, experience, and expertise keep transcription companies in business! Unbelievable attitude. Thanks for your post--it is 100% right on!
PS to above post, sm
The accounts are teaching hospitals, acute care, and clinics etc. A mix of ESLs and non-ESLs. Not easy unless you really know your stuff, but good accounts. Good luck.
See my post below -
My experience was different but also bad!
Where's your post?
See post below from 9/27
titled 'Is this weird' - I was talking about Shapin. That may just have been my experience though.
Post the hos name here, someone may be able to tell you where it went.

What was the post about?

Please see my post
That line rate for VR is not good. Plus they do not pay any shift differential or incentive pay. VR at 4+ cents per line plus no differential or incentive is pretty rock bottom.
