In Reply to: No family? sm - Nothing to do with topic
but it is definitely not me! 
And to anyone I offended, I apologize. The poster just asked why someone said it was amazing, and I just said probably it was the no weekends part that was amazing. It's nothing to me either way. I work 3 jobs, so I do not ever have a day off. But it doesn't seem so much like working when I have my giant iced coffee on my desk and my sweet little girl by my feet. Thanks for noticing

Regardless, names of office employees have no place here. Read the RULES. nm

Not me. I hope there is a special place reserved for them in a very hot place.

And since you obviously know the rules
Did you miss the part about harrassing other people on the board?! Enough already, I think he/she got your point!
Not according to the rules of IC
No schedule is to be dictated. Nothing that even remotely suggests employee status is to be done with ICs.
Banking rules indicate that you must have
concrete proof that the direct deposit is going in because things do happen. If you have your paystub with the direct deposit amount and date on it, only then you can write checks and do withdrawals. Otherwise, it's your fault. It doesn't matter when pay usually comes. We went round and round with both of our banks over this because DH's pay wouldn't show up sometimes since his supervisor had forgotten to send the paperwork over to the payroll department. It didn't matter and we had to eat all the overdraft, NSF and check collection fees. I was so ticked off at his boss, but DH would never let me go off on the lazy good for nothing.
As I recall, the IRS rules for IC ...
specify that if the company has or asserts control over any part of your working conditions, time, production, clients, etc, then you have to be called an employee and treated as such tax-wise.
This post goes against the rules and will probably get
deleted, but I'm make like a scratched CD and again state post you resume on the job boards, search the ads on the job boards.
That's the doctor's rules
They do the account the way the doctors want them done; I guess that's why they don't have a turn over of accounts so that we are constantly losing accounts and having to start over. They follow BOS unless it is stated in the instructions otherwise at the doctor's request.
rules of the board
Of course we all need to be able to vent our frustrations and state our opinions, whether everybody agrees with us or not. My problem with this board is the huge number of trolls who take every opportunity to wage a personal attack. That's taking freedom of speech to a level that interferes with other peoples' rights and I think there should be zero tolerance for it. Sure, state your opinion and argue if you wish, but leave the personal attacks and name-calling out of it. That's against board policy to begin with and too many people don't respect that rule. I realize of course that there's a problem with trolls on most web sites because unfortunately there's no shortage of lunatics out there, but I think the people in our field should be able to have discussions about issues and companies without some nut case using it as an excuse to exercise some sick need to be a bully. And yes, I'm name-calling but just about trolls in general, no particular person. These people need to grow up, get a life and realize how pathetic they are. And if such behavior continues to pop up on this site, the best thing anyone can do is totally ignore them. When you argue or try to reason with them, you're feeding their need and wasting your time. But my request to the moderator would be to immediately bar from the site anyone who breaks the rules concerning that type of behavior. It's not like they don't know they're not supposed to do it. They're just thumbing their noses at the rules and doing it anyway because that's what they do best.
I did not see any format rules.
As far as reformatting, I use macros to make formatting changes that seem to be frequently necessary.
change in rules
Do you have a contract with the specifics in writing? If so, threaten a lawyer to enforce it.
If not, time to get another job. You don't cover an MTSO's butt, do the junk shift and work type, then not get paid the agreed upon extra for that.
Talk about lack of business ethics.
I thought if you were an IC, you had no rules! nm

one space - who makes up these rules?
What I would like to know who makes these new rules up? The email said new national standard, something like that. I mean, how can someone change Americas punctuation and English rules? I was taught way back when, when I first was taught typing in high school..two spaces..who changed the rules? Is there a *standards judge*, LOL..A *spacer judge*..Who thinks these things up and if it is national standard, do the other MTSO's know about it?
Hey, I don't make the rules - the client does! SM
This is what the CLIENT has told us. They don't want us "padding" with "This is" or adding extra words to make complete sentences. I'm as bound by these rules as the MTs!
Before posting on any board you should know the rules/
guidelines. There is a link on the top of each page that tells you what you need to know and one of them is not to post account information. No one is attacking you. It is just common sense that you don't go around posting account information.
copy/paste is against the rules.. we were
from the onset to NEVER EVER copy and paste. If you are doing this you should stop it soon before they figure it out and you get in trouble.
Any company can set up any rules they want to. I have heard of a few
companies that dock you for errors. 3.5 to 4 cpl is about standard for VR from what I have seen.
BOS not written by God. Just some rules decided

we can't name accounts, against board rules here

Since when has our "Uncle" ever played by the rules?
If it's good enough for the big-shots at the top, then it's good enough for me.
Different STMs/accts have different rules SM
and expectations. The best way to find out is to ask your STM, because someone else's experience may not end up to be yours. Mine happens to be very strict as far as hours/lines and I will get a phone call if I am short on either for a day. I know others who have different STMs who do not have that experience.
They follow HR rules to the letter now SM
because I am one of the people they had to pay back overtime wages to when they were turned in to the Dept. of Labor. I am talking thousands of dollars.
Just goes back to the rules and regulations of a
particular place. I guess if you did not care about working for that company, sure go ahead and erase and straight type using expanders. I really love where I am and tend to play by their rules as they are the ones giving me a paycheck. From what I read on here about other platforms using VR, I have a good thing going on. Hate to change horses in the middle of the stream so to speak.
What *rules* are these? Blow the whistle to who? sm
Statements like this are amusing b/c there isn't some big oversight committee regulating pay or what hospitals pay to MTSOs either.
Alltype changes the rules as they go to suit them.
IMO, they'll tell you one thing when interviewed, but the numbers just don't add up and definitely show in your pay. They love to send reminder emails regarding working holidays unless scheduled off, and when you do there is no work. Then, as you sit isolated from your family on the holidays, you get the peppy little emails saying check with your team leader to see if you can take off an hour here and there, and work them later in the day as you are not allowed to take ANY time off without pay (even if there is no work). Their TAT is more important that your time with your family, also IMO. If you don't/can't meet your required line count for full-time, they put you on part-time status. If you're already part-time and don't/can't meet your line count, they put you on IC status (and expect you to work their schedule with minimum line count requirement of 600 lines per day).
Management is demeaning, curt, and unprofessional, and human resources person is worse, also IMO. Check archives about email resignation that may or may not have been initiated by human resources...and be very cautious about what they (management) tell you. The term snakes comes to mind...but, of course, that is just my opinion. They used to be a nice place to work years ago when G ran it.
Using people's names is really against the rules and you should not do so. It is unprofessional.
do you? Why do you think it is right to name a person and then slam their name. If you think this is right, then tell me why? It is not right and it should not be allowed.
I agree ... the rules and the players seem to change
You can't play the game FAIRLY, when they keep changing the rules. I'm very disappointed. Was looking towards a long tenure with KS, but not at this rate. All I can say ... for anyone who wants to venture into this territory ... get everything in writing.
The book contains suggestions. They don't write the rules
they merely published them in a format convenient for us to review - save your anger for the JAHCO and the American Medical Association.
You're right - I stand corrected. So much for *rules* NM
nm
Probably each company has their own rules, but when I was working in a hospital sm
generally, it was 7a-3p for first, 3p-11p for second, and 11p-7a for third, not including lunch breaks.
Hope this helps.
This is what foot-stompin will get ya, Stricter rules

It is alsoagainst the rules of this forum to 'shout' at posters
what you are doing by typing in capital letters.
This is likewise not acceptable.
great line rate? I suppose that rules out the beast
haha
If offshore owned, they want to play by their rules, treating MTs like slave labor, much like
:+
You are correct. The state that rules is the state the employee lives in.
My state laws has is spelled out in their Code. If another state does not withhold, they are fined heavily and if they don't withhold for years, their fines are pretty bad. I worked for a Florida co that did not withhold income tax for my state even after I brought it to their attention in the state code. They kept saying that they would eventually and never did. After two plus years and when I left, I made it known to my state all the conversations, the state refunded me all late fees they charged me and then said they were going after the company in Florida because they had many employees in our state. They deserved it. They knew better.
No - one place is the same as the next.

Don't use yours all in one place!!!!!
SPREAD the joy!!
Me neither. Bad place IMO

I think so, from the second place.

Bad Place!!
If you like to get paid for your work, then I would suggest not working for her!! She still owes me quite a bit of money, the pay is ALWAYS late and not always correct. She is also extremely moody and will take everything out on you if she's having a bad day. She says that her VR is really good, but I couldn't make much with it, and usually ended up typing the reports over for 6 cents/line.
Don't know why they ask in the first place if they
aren't going to take into the consideration what people have to say. There have been a few others that did the same thing and came back here to post how sorry they were they didn't listen to the negative posts.
This place is not for you then.
to have you and your strive for excellence attitude. Try another company right now so that you don't lose your touch. Best wishes...
If MQ MTs are looking to that place, .

Run from this place!

There is a place for everyone, though you are still
in the honeymoon phase. If you're happy I'm happy for you.
Is it possible to try a third place?
Third might be a charm. No matter what you choose, trust your heart. Good luck!
Why would someone place an ad SM
and use an address like that? You have to wonder. Same goes for people who use completely unprofessional emails to communicate with companies about jobs, mommy2joey, lovinmama, all that stuff. It's ridiculous.
My place
I just had an email tonight asking about where I worked because of another posting here and like I told them, was chatting on here with a lady, told her where I worked and about a month later she applied there, got hired, received the foot pedal and then nothing. She asked me to talk to this person (we both knew her) and when I did, my company got in a twit, saying they could do their own hiring??? and all I did was to ask them about getting back in touch with MS X as she was waiting to go to work. That was probably about a year ago and I never did that again. I feel almost 100% your low count is exclusively because of Chartscript. I have always since the 80s done straight at least 2000 or better a day whatever system I was on UNTIL in 2000 and something started and dropped like a leaded balloon. I gave up a job that was not hard work at all, but was not going to work for less lines than I knew I could do. Immediately went back up in next job.
