They do believe we should all do it. The owner of TT even drives a hybrid.

Sorry, should be drives.
Guess I'm tired.
because your boyfriend drives a bus
I just don't think we are on the same page. I am not so upset that someone gets to retire at half pay at age 55, I just think it is a damn good deal and I would not complain. How many people retire at age 55? Not many!!! Good for them. I am so happy for them. What I don't understand is striking for more. It's called GREED and you are the one who is off base and bitter. I can't help it that your boyfriend makes $18K. I just hope he is very young and someday gets a better job.
That drives me nuts when they do that!!! sm
They say to please flex your time when work is low. Then they send out emails when things pick up and tell us we MUST be on NOW if we are short lines/hours. Yes, my life revolves around you TT! I love sitting at my computer 12 hours a day every day to accommodate YOU! arrggghhh.
Maybe you could swap hard drives.
Didn't have time to read details of all these related posts so hope I'm not too far off your issue. You don't have to buy a new pc. If you can get a copy of XP just get a different hard drive installed in your new pc, take out the hard drive that has Vista on it and keep it as a backup and keep it set up when the rest of the universe catches up with Vista. You can install a clean hard drive and install XP with all the things that go with it. If you can't do it on your own most local pc stores can do it at a really low hourly rate and get it going for you. Just a thought. Good luck.
That is what drives me crazy about my current..sm
position. I was told when I was interviewed that each month everyone jumped on a conference call to talk about things going on with the work and with the company. Not only do they not do that, I don't know a single person I work with. The only contact I have had at all for almost 4 years is with customer service, my supervisor, or their trainer.
The management says most people like it that way, but it is starting to drive me bonkers. I don't need my hand held, but it would be nice to have some social contact with people who understand your profession, your account, or even just the company you work in.
I am finally over the 5-year mark for experience and am looking for something that is a better fit for me, but I am really disadvantaged in that I have no contacts through work. I think I need someone to adopt me. 
MT desperation is what drives the wheels of
India is such a cash-cow for them at present. Those people will work for next to nothing, under horrible conditions, just to put an extra scoop of rice on their family's plates.
I think the proper word for that kind of exploitation would be.....
'S-W-E-A-T-S-H-O-P'.

Used hybrid.

Hybrid vehicle?
What is Hybrid vehicle reimbursement all about? See it on their advertisement
hybrid reimbursement
Does that mean 500.00 on a used hybrid or 500.00 on any used car?
A hybrid Hummer?
xx
You buy a new or used hybrid vehicle and they will give you $$$ to help pay for it.
They are really cool people with a really cool company. I have never been happier.
Hybrid vehicle reimbursement?
I saw that on their ad. What does this mean, you get a Hybrid they pay? I thought that was interesting to know more.
Hybrid vehicle reimbursement?
It says that on their latest job posting. What exactly does that mean (other than the obvious)?
hybrid vehicle reimbursement?
can someone please tell me what TTS add means when it says hybrid vehicle reimbursement? I'm just lost here..
I don't think MTs are running out to buy hybrid cars
It's not an incentive to sign up. They don't need to do that because word of mouth does that for them. It's more like core values of how a company operates and what they believe in.
One of their many benefits is a hybrid automobile reimbursement. (sm)
They offer a financial reimbursement if you purchase a new or used hybrid car.
$1000 toward the purchase of a new hybrid vehicle
It's a nice way for TT to encourage environmental consciousness. My husband and I are in need of a new car. Haven't made a decision yet, but we're definitely considering taking TT up on this offer.
The email said the owner as she is the owner of the email software package. sm
We got the list from AHDI. If someone does not wish to be on our email list, there is a link to click on at the bottom of those for opting out. We immediately remove those that click the link.
We also have a few mailling going out. Same thing - if you opt out of the email program, we will remove you from all contact.
We need transcriptionists for many new accounts and have ads on here and other sites, as well as several magazines. We are going to need over 100 MTs in the next 3 months due to new accounts and more work on existing accounts!
Hmm, wonder what the owner will say
no flame, but I would not tolerate that kind of off loading in a public forum from someone on my management team. Please remember I was responding to horn tooting that was short on information and left an impression that huh, I could do better elsewhere in addition to feeling insulted at the lack of decent benefits. There was no mention of UC contribution, STD or LTD, employer paying part of the health insurance premiums.
I said what I said mostly to make the point. If you want to sell me, do a good job the first time or you sink yourself and I won't look at you twice. There was little in the original post to sway me in your favor and the Jeckle/Hyde posting afterwards warns me of good day/bad day tangents.
As I said, best of luck to your company.
Are you the owner of
Why not just post the email address of the 'administrator'. Are you just trying to draw traffic to your forums and away from the forums here.
Seems to me, if you are really seeking MTs you'd just post like the other companies do on the Job board.
it USED to mean owner (sm)
back when most MT services were little and there was a real owner. Now that there are so many huge multinationals with no owner to take personal responsibility for the service, it's sort of transmogrified to mean organization, but that's redundant.
Just take it as meaning a service. Once again, AAMT, worthless as ever, ruins the language.
no changes that i know of. Same owner.

and this is the new owner
 My god you people are so gullable. That picture could have come from anyones kitchen!!!
How do you know? Are you the owner?
They are obviously losing something if there's no work. Have you been with them since they started or something? Do you know of every account MDI has or what? How can you make a blanket statement like that?
I can't believe people sit frustrated about no work and don't move on; that's just plain silly. There are tons of companies hiring; get on with it already! Come on show your stuff to a company that will appreciate you and not OVERHIRE!
Owner? sm
I thought someone named Tracy owned Net-Med?
Should be owner's...sorry. nm

A few posts on here say the owner is a mean one. nm
,
Owner is snarky.

As the owner of Omniscribe.... sm
I would like to come here and say that I have no idea who this individual is. She/he has never worked for me and my paychecks have NEVER been late. A company who does not pay their MTs would go under in no time flat and I am still going. Omniscribe is a very small company and I can count on one hand the number of MTs who have left here. Not one of them would come to a public forum to bash me or my company, so I'd be very curious to know who you are. I'm certain you have me and my company confused with some other place.
Oh, okay. I thought it was okay because the owner
people are saying DEROGATORY things about her. I was saying GOOD things and mine was deleted.
Is this really the owner of a company
Wow! You are soooooooooo ghetto and ignorant. I am speechless!
As a business owner
I have had people give notice and then NOT work their full shifts because they were leaving. Contracts can stipulate that you can be deducted pay for not fulfilling your contract.
Anyway, there are other methods to collect funds owed, if they are due.
I just do not feel that public character assassination is an appropriate manner to do so.
Walk a mile in my shoes!
You said you spoke to the owner.
You are not credible.
owner, not organization.
Remember the Owner
I remember reading another board a few years back....maybe quite a few years...and I remember distinctly J. Weight's name. I know she was one of the most argumentative and flaming people out there. Stay away.
Why would you talk to owner?
Perhaps she is an account lead. That, or a buttkisser.
Why I spoke with the owner - sm
SHE called me, SHE hired me, SHE promised me a job at a certain rate, SHE gave me all kinds of excuses why the job never materialized and then I never heard from anyone again. Enough said.
I also spoke with the owner for the same
exact reasons. She called me, she hired me, she emailed me daily, she offered me account after account, which never materialized while I did crap work just waiting for her promises to be kept. Guess what? They never were!
Owner of a company
I agree with you. I would not want the responsility of owning a company or even managing. My dad was in management for 28 years. You are not there to make everyone happy and sometimes people have to be let go. If you cannot keep your end of the deal I would make you move on. Actually I would be a real hard a-- if I were a manager. A lot of it has to do with respect for each other. You need to appreciate what you have. Too many times these days everyone just wants a pay check regardless of anything else. Some people do not take pride in their work or anything else. Every thing is not hunky dorry every single day, either on our side or a manager/company owner's side. It is just not realistic.
The owner will encourage you to
talk to her current staff, etc., but that is definitely biased. An anonymous board like this is is a safer.
and........ the owner of this company
is subcontracting work out for Medware. Medware and herself are one in the same.
....starting with the owner! lol
x
Use full name of owner. nm
The owner does at least read here..
I had posted here complaining ile back that I couldn't get ahold of the recruiter who offered me a position and the owner of the company sent me a personal email to get in touch with her as they were moving offices and the recruiter was off part of that week.
You have got to be kidding. KS is a little too big for the owner to sm
bother coming in here and posting under other names. I used to see her name on posts, but it was years ago. I think they are very big now, and she probably has more important things to do than post on a board, much less use different names. There are over 300 MTs at Keystrokes. I would bet that only a handful post, but the positives are definitely from actual MTs. Wow. I am amazed at the things that people come up with. If there were not positives, they would not have employees. I have been there for 5 years, and so have most of the other KS MTs that I have gotten to know over the years.
Keystrokes owner
Hi-do you know if Keystrokes owner is named Jill?
Keystrokes owner
Thanks, I actually found that out when I went to the website. I used to work in a hospital for someone who lived in Yorkville and started her own company who was very nice and great to work for. I was thinking, WOW, has she made it! Thanks
Ower = owner

Really? New management? New owner? - nm

perhaps you should email the owner and ask. NM
