No one will ever convince me

In Reply to: More often than not it is NOT the MTSO deciding - wishful thinking
the MTSO only gets half of the usual cpl for VR than they did for text. If there is a profit in it, they simply do not care and certainly they ain't gonna share that profit with the MTs.

are you trying to convince me or sm
yourself? I have lived in four different states and kept my job with MQ. My BP is fine and I am not a hot head. I AM SICK AND TIRED of MTs accepting this IC status crap when it is not IC status. This is one of the things that has brought this profession down. They hire you IC and then tell you what to do and when to do it. If these MTSOs want to do that they they should pay our taxes at least. Some folks (like myself) prefer IC status, but obviously not because of the taxes but because of the flexibility. If it makes you happy to work that way then so be it. But my opinion of MDI is based on MY experience. I am not telling you that your experience is not what you say it is, but you are telling me that I am lying.
When it comes to in this together that only goes until these MTSOs break the law and then I WILL standup for what I believe is right and at that point I AM NOT in this with you if you condone this IC status baloney and what these companies are doing. You need to open your eyes.
Well guys, you convince me --
from now on I'm going to demand that I have work. I don't care if it takes it from someone else. That's too bad for them. I'm just going to worry about me and my pocketbook. The rest of you don't matter. Thanks for the push!
we have this clarified now, now we have to convince
clients and MTSOs to pay the same for VR and straight MTing.
The thing is that the VR software salesmen who sell the VR software, which is very expensive, have to give their prospective buyers an incentive so that they buy this expensive stuff: Their catch is the promise that MTs can do twice, even thrice in the same time and are going to be paid half, as they assumed it will beso easy to do.
This was all a misspeculation, it is as hard as straight MTing and takes almost the same time.
Solution: Pay for VR the same as for straight MTing.
MTSO will try to convince you YOU are the only 1
MTSO will try to convince you, you are the only one with problem when they will actually have +++ complaining. I think this is one reason MTs are discouraged from talking to each other. You would think MTSO secrets were more important/to be guarded than national security.
Nice try Beth! Who are you trying to convince?
