It's grow up, not grow-up. Whose grammar/spelling
are you trying to correct? 
This is rich!
I sure hope you accepted his offer!!!! I know I would have...instantly!
oh that's rich.
You get your panties in a wad because someone posts your address...I think that kind of says something. If you aren't trying to get away with anything, you shouldn't care.
the rich usually don't, but there are also
a many poor people. Poor people get a lot of assistance from the Saudi government, because the country has so many natural resources, foremost oil.
There are also no taxes
levied, citizens have free medical treatment, and much more...
ALL? I'd be SO RICH! Only what's asigned..nm
Over 1000 lph? You must be rich!
LOL
Yah - a couple women got rich, and we all got -nm
.
All these people care about is getting rich, no
This sounds like one the MTSOs who got rich from selling
their company. You need to live in the real world sometime and see what you can do without. Your beer and champagne will be gone, but so will the steaks, lobster, and even a fresh vegetable unless you grow them. Even better, try giving up some other things - aspirin, ibuprofen, kleenex, vitamins they recommend you take daily, doctors visits, dental care.
Sorry, LMAO, I never want to meet you or be around you. You are evil.
Unfortunately, the country seems headed toward rich, or poor, period.
sort of like, anyone not rich has to conform to the mentality that ...we are only working for the good of everyone else.
MT is not the only profession. it seems to be eroding through our entire society like wild fire. you best not have a good opinion of your self or worth, because you will be whipped back into believing you are only lucky to have a job.
heartless. whoever is in charge of this country or in the trend is heartless. any companies that were good, and there were a few, are claiming they now need to compete with lower wages and better technology, all of which we have to suck up, not the owners.
mostly I hear women with that mentality, that martyr-type attitude. we shoud just work like dogs, expect nothing but our sweat-shop pay, keep our mouths shut, and just be glad for any scraps a company wants to throw at you.
these companies love these women...and if it was not so sad, it would almost be funny to watch some of these women now, who are not even making what they made five years ago but are losing work, benefits, and pay. maybe they are happy because, hey, after all, we probably do not even deserve that, right?
I'd say 55 cents a word is a moneymaker, you'll get rich!
you both don't sound happy there anyway. Move on. Happiness is better than being rich! nm

(cont'd from posting above) pick up the slack from the rich's tax loopholes!
Who else are the people who refuse to work going to have pay for their stuff?
Yeah, my thoughts exactly. Just another get-rich scheme, preying on desperate
MTs who want a light at their tunnel. Most likely just a train in this case and another way to fill someone else's pockets off your vulnerability, but that is just my negative opinion. Been there done that...
And you really should grow up!

OH GROW UP!!!

Grow up.

Why do you stay at Amphion if you hate it so much and have such dislike of the people? Seriously. Make room for those that had to leave and didn't want to. You are sitting where they want to be and then complaining about it and trashing them all while calling yourself a quiet mt. makes no sense to me. these economic times are hard for everyone, and you cannot keep blaming Amphion for needing to reduce staff, too.
Oh, grow up!!!
It's everybody elses' fault, right, that you are making what you made 20 years ago? Face the fact that clients will not pay big bucks for MT services anymore. Those days are over!!!
Grow up?
Oh so just because clients aren't paying what they used to that means I have to give even more of my money to a subcontractor who is providing a service to me by hiring for other companies. Quit drinking the Kool-Aid already and catch a clue. You obviously work for TTD and love being taken advantage of - good grief! Start your own forum called MTs without a clue and I am sure you and your Kool-Aid friends will have a great time.

Oh grow up.
Saint Gourdpainter. Give it a rest.
Guess what. Most of us already HAVE gone through what the MDI folks are going through now. We just didn't take a week and a billion posts to commiserate about it.
Seriously, it's not like Huricane Katrina or 9/11 or something.
It's BUSINESS. **** happenes.
Deal!
And I second the motion to move the MDI/Transcend soap operate OFF the company board.
ENOUGH ALREADY!
Oh Grow UP!
Smoking cigars and drinking brandy? What did you think you signed up for anyway? Getting paid lots and lots of money to sit at home? You get what you put into this. If you want to get paid hourly, go work in-house. If you want to get paid by production and have the freedom to work at home, don't expect to make big bucks, expect to make about what you would make working at a retail store. Sadly, this is just a normal to low paying job now. Take it or leave it, but give us all a break with the drama.
You are kidding yourself. OSi is not growing. You cannot grow without
OSi wants to be big, but that will never happen because they will not listen to anyone about giving the MTs more instead of putting all the profits into their own pockets. All you get at OSi is your base line rate...that is it. Nothing extra for nights, weekends, holidays. They make you pay for the foot pedal and even the cheap spell checker.
You pretty much said it all when you said that OSi is choosy about who they invite to their parties!! How awful! When most companies have company parties, all employees are invited. That is pretty sad and pretty much says it all about OSi.
why don't you grow up and get a life you troll

Quit whining and grow up
So, you were fired from Spheris. Probably because you couldn't cut it. You get 90 days to make your production, and if after 90 days, you aren't producing, they will cut you loose. Why should they keep people like you, who are obviously bitter, and carrying a huge chip on your shoulder, when there are other so-called newbies, with good work ethics who want to work hard, and are willing to put in the time required to get the production required. 3 months is a long time to get used to an account, and build your production. There must have been more to your firing than what you state in your post.
Hopefully you will find employment elsewhere. But, I would urge you to change your attitude, lose the chip on your shoulder and grow up. Don't blame everything and everyone around you. Take a look at your production, skills, etc. and then ask yourself again, why Spheris let you go.
My guess - they'll grow until their #1 (sm)
and with growth comes growing pains. Yes indeed, check your facts.

I think sooner or later MTs will be forced to grow
backbones, because as the pay for MT work edges ever closer to 0 cpl, there comes a point where the MT will leave altogether or turn around and start swinging both fists. For quite a long time now, I've believed that the truth is, MTSO's don't really WANT the more costly American MTs. The sooner they can drive us all out, the sooner they'll have the excuse they've been waiting for in order to be able to just pack up and take it all overseas. Companies who actually want to RETAIN good employees just don't treat them the way MTs are treated.
I have been with KS for a few years now and love it. They grow continuously without sm
losing accounts, so that is why they are always recruiting. The last information I saw was that they doubled in size between last year and this year and will do so again by this time next year.
Then they need to stand their ground, grow a spine,

Wow, grow up. You're a kid yourself with that immature response...nm

if someone puts up with crap for 5 years... they deserve the crap!! good grief... grow a set and get
