Not as of today. Probably next week. nm

2 accts starting today and at least 1 more next week sm
If you are considering coming on board, the 35-hr per week is great for qualifying for full-time benefits status. Flex schedule depends on what account you are hired for; I have 12 hours window to get in my 8 hours in a day. Works well for me.
I don't think we work at the same place, but I have been working lots and lots of hours.
Very thankful to have a decent job.
Lots and lots of work. You will love
XY?Z
Call them. I have lots of work, had lots of work
during the holidays too. I don't know who routes the work, but one of the office people is on vacation this week. I occasionally have to call to get work depending on what hours I'm working, but I have never not gotten work when I've asked for it.
Lots of promises, no follow through. Lots and lots of internal sm
problems. She is recruiting heavy right now as she has a CHANCE at getting a big account back. Even if they get it back, they'll blow it again from poor management.
Lots of work here too. I cannot figure out which accounts have no work.
I'm on the Escription platform
Great place to work. LOTs of work and (sm)
as the other poster noted, somewhat flexible. Make your lines and they pretty much leave you be. Communication is great, QA is great. The platform is extremely easy. There's plenty of work to go around and then some.
Escription has been out of work. Dictaphone has lots of work.
And where did my work go today -
And offshore for no reason but to save money? Happy, happy, happy, very happy I don't count on MT for anything anymore!
Yup! Got one today and I don't even work there!
I haven't worked there since February! Up until as recently as a month ago, they were still calling me and e-mailing me asking me to work and type stat reports! The incompetency of this company just makes me sick. I had to finally call the HR person to tell them to stop calling me or I would report them for harassment as they were constantly calling me very late at night (10 PM and later). I have been gone from that hell hole for about 7 months and am with a much, much better company!
Work today
Steady between primary and secondaries, got my 1500 easy today.
lots of work
I got bored and tired of MQ not ever having any work, and I have found 2 part time positions that allow me to work whenever I want so long as I can get the required lines within a certain time frame. So far, I have worked for one platform for one month and the other for 1 day and already I am averaging more lph than with MQ. Think DocQScribe stinks maybe? Then add to that the time it takes for that stupid Etime logging baloney. I can't believe it took me this long, but it seems pretty plain to me.
I have lots of work on my
If you don't already have a secondary...ask for one.
Probably everything you said. I have lots of work.
Lots of companies overhire probably because they need the work done and there are always a few MTs who have issues and don't work regularly or don't do their committed lines, so they hire more to make up for it. It is possible they may be offshoring too. You can ask about the company here and if they are offshoring someone may know. Unfortunately there isn't anything you can do about either situation.
lots of work?
So which company is it you work for that gives you lots of work?
Lots of work.
Software productive and becoming more so as enhancements are made to the program.
They do have lots of work. That is plus.

yes, there is usually lots of work
once in a while, it does run out but not for very long and it really doesn't happen that often.
Lots of work here
I get e mails once or twice a week from my account work flow coordinator (that are sent out to everyone) saying that the volume has picked up and anyone who wants more lines and more $$ is welcome to sign on.
No work today again. System down..
How do you make a living like that?
except on days like today, no work nm
nm
I have work, all on today's date.

yep - Trinidad is doing MT work for USA today....
Any other First Choice MTs out of work today?
Or is it just me?
RAD Keystrokers, as of today, is there enough work every day?
x
Anyone else at Transcend out of work again today.?
Lots to do on Saturday and Sundays, come Monday morning everything dries up for the rest of the week. Overhire maybe or maybe the swarm of mosquitoes that blow in from the east every night?
Any other MDIers out of work today?
No work on my primary, secondary and tertiary accounts!
Amphion has lots of work
I would very much like to talk with you and offer my assistance regarding your concerns of overhiring and lack of work. Something must be amiss and I would like to solve your dilemma yet today. We have lots of work, are still recruiting cream of the crop MTs, and pride ourselves on treating our team members fairly.

Is there always lots of work at Precyse? Do they do
nm
I work for First Choice and have lots of ops.
I am not sure if they are hiring, but you can always check.
Lots of work on my account... but I saw the
intrascript e-mail too. I am sure if you do not have enough work you can go on it. Contact the office.
Lots of reasons. Lie about pay, no work,
no questions answered.
Lots of work - I have NEVER had this issue
x
Seem to be running out of work lots more...
hopefully just a coincidence???
They do pay on time & have lots of work sm
but I found it difficult to make any money there. They use a Word counter, which is definitely short. Some TATs they have are unreasonable. Because of the way work comes in, your work day could be stretched from 6 in the morning to 9 at night. I like to work with a set schedule, so it was not a good fit for me. They may have different platforms now.
I see lots of mistakes too and I work there
We can look up old reports and I am astounded by some of the mistakes made. Makes me wonder how they even got out of 100% QA. One report for a dictator I knew to be on ASR looked like they didn't even edit it -- it was just a string of words that made no sense.
Have no idea what's going on there, except there is the usual big push for production. Don't know which accounts the Indians are on, but they do have Indian coordinators working the overnight shift; they have given them phony American names, but it is easy to tell they are not from here. I'm getting aggravated with the place but don't want to be a job hopper.
lots of work, on all 3 of my accounts, always will.

Lots of ESLs and not much work. nm
There is lots of work at Transcend!
I've been with Transcend for over 2 years now and have NEVER run out of work. There have been times when work was a little slow, but if you can be a flexible during these instances (usually around the holidays, like all companies in my experience) you will always stay busy. You just have to communicate with your managers and they will bend over backwards to make sure you are working.
Good luck with your training, Passing Through! Please come back and share your success story! There are many of us Happy Transcenders. We just don't get a chance to chat on the forums often because we are busily typing away!
Lots of different work types
.
Why would anyone work 8 hours a week. The poster above said 16 or 24 hours a week.
:
I work for a company with lots of work,
I work a second/third shift position and I still run out of work. I asked for a secondary account probably 6 weeks ago and haven't received one yet.
You can call the MTSO or your supervisior, but they really don't care, the work is getting done and that is all that really matters.
You'll have work today, but not tomorrow.

Offered job with Transtech today. If you work for TT....
what has your experience been like? I got all the answers I asked for regarding platform, hardware, work flow, schedules, benefits, incentive, DD and paydays. Everything sounds good. Insurance sounds more affordable than other places I have talked to and they also pay for 12 hours of training plus line rate. Please only respond if you currently work there more than 3 months or previously worked there for more than 1 year.
I've been out of work 2 times today
7 a.m for 1-1/2 hours, and now. I don't count the 1 or 2 reports that slip in. I've worked exactly 3-3/4 hours today in my 8 hour shift.
Sad you have to come to this website to try to find out anything, they are already out of work today
nm
First time since July, I ran out of work today BUT sm
Extext has been terrible for over a week. I think it may be Extext. I had to wait until midnight before all my lines from yesterday showed up. I have been booted out a number of times, have lost reports, had it put in offline mode and my internet was FINE.
It may be Extext!
NO WORK again today -- mgmt, are your checks LOW, too???? n/m
Who is making the money to keep your paychecks the same????
Is this really fair? You mgmt people should be doling out some of your paychecks to us MT's who have NO WORK and LOW PAYCHECKS.
Running out of work again today. How are you all coping? (sm)
I have tried flexing and checking in every 10-15 minutes to get lines and then having to often make them up in the evening eating into another persons shift.
I have now picked up a PT flexible job that I do pretty much of an evening and my days off. I just have to commit to lines, not hours. Great gig. I don't want to endanger this PT job because I have to flex all over the place to get lines with WMX.
How are you all managing the low work flow situation?
My accounts have barely any work today.
I've managed 2 small jobs so far today. My account had picked up for about 2 days and actually had a good backlog, but then it was bombarded by MTs instructed to go there, so completely wiped out and nothing left for the primaries. And I see instructions for other MTs to come here for part of their lines again today as well, which means the primaries on my account have to fight them for work again. If my husband hadn't just had his hours cut also, I'd consider just taking a week off and getting stuff done, since I'm mostly wasting time babysitting my computer that I could put to more productive use elsewhere.
