On another board a company has posted a MT position, stating that the MT must have impeccable grammar, punctuation, and PROOFREADING skills.....but, the name of the company is misspelled.

That's pretty funny they have to

It is pretty funny. Maybe they ought sm
to change their name to Hair-riter? I remember at that time wondering who on earth turned the keyboard and the pedal in like that. And if anybody's wondering, the employment experience there was just as disgusting.
Ya think? Pretty funny stuff anyway!
LMAO
Pretty funny. OSI gripers burned up the board with sm
their complaints. None of the posts match when you click into them.
LOL. That's pretty funny and a great response! Thanks for the laugh!

This struck me as odd
I have never heard a patient referred to in this way before by a dictator, like he is referring to an animal. Just thought it was funny:
*The patient is married with 10 offspring, 4 males and 6 females.*
Maybe this heat is frying my brain, but got a good laugh anyway.
Oh, okay - it just struck me as odd as sm
I remember seeing it the other day and thought the same thing. When I saw it again today I thought I went back through the whole advertisement trying to make the love of animals connection. Must be a vet clinic or something similar. Ophthalmology isn't my thing, but just happened to notice the ad again and wondered.
struck a nerve
Wow, I would definitely say I struck some nerves today. My point I'm trying to make is even though your office is at home, you are AT home, OT or regular hours. Yes you like to spend time with your family but if you had OT at an actual office they wouldn't even get to see you. At least with your office at home you can say hi, answer questions, give some hugs. If you're sick you may not want to be in your office at home, but at least you can throw on a pair of sweats and not have to look nice to complete your job. No gas money to spend, no money for clothes, no travel time to and from work away from your family.
This part of your post struck me as odd
~~~ I have been subject to some horrifying systems where the companies actually expect you to achieve your line counts or keep them hidden.~~~~
Okay, I understand how an MTSO can hide line counts. I worked in an office and saw how they did it.
BUT, ~~I have been subject to some horrifying systems where the companies actually expect you to achieve your line counts~~~~ So you are saying TH has a horrifying system and does not expect you to achieve your line count? That's an odd statement. Care to expound on it? 
Very puzzling information.
I'm not at TRX but comment struck a chord.
Just wanted to clarify that I'm not at TRX but had the same feelings you expressed so well, at another company.
It really makes me appreciate the ones who are respectful and have a helpful approach, which sounds like the QA at TRX.
When you struck this deal, did you happen to
You might have grounds for a lawsuit.
If not, I'd just start working my old days and hours. And when asked about it, I'd tell them, 'If you can go back on your word, than so can I'!
Sorry. No nerve struck. Just my bad post-Thanksgiving pre-Christmas stressed
out mood.
That is really funny
The majority cannot be wrong. Your first post brought on the reactions of many, all saying the same thing. Your first post was rude. It just was. It sounded hateful. No way that 5 different people read it wrong. Funny how you descend upon the poor OP and basically rip her apart and then call the rest of us vultures. So funny. You are not one to be preaching about attitudes and how we should watch them. Talk to the woman in the mirror first.
OMG HOW FUNNY!!!
NM
it's funny that
the packet states no one will get a pay cut but they gave out pay cuts before people trained on DEP as DEP has only a certain pay level, so they were told. I guess this means no pay cuts with this packet. Pretty smarmy, huh??
too funny
nm
I think it is funny that you all
want to say that JACKO and the others you mentioned are the only rudes ones on this board. Look over the posts. Pretty much everyone here is rude. I've never seen anything like it.
that is funny....unfortunately if they were not that way, I don't many of us would have a job-LOL

Too funny. He gets around. nm

Funny
Please, why is it that if someone has been treated badly and there are issues that that person tries to convey to another for their own warning, why is that a grudge? You watch too much TV!
Too funny.
I have two dried up accounts as well. Yet they are still hiring. Go figure.
lol, and for 8 cpl! Now, that's funny.

Funny
Oh what like I'm scared? Yes M.E. are my initials, you better believe it. Saying liar is not slanderous. Especially since this board makes disclaimers. Funny.
How funny!!!
Was it a lady by the name of Phyllis Tate who contacted you? She is always going on cruises. I turned down that company one week after I started working there. That place is so darn screwed up. Do not consider taking a job whatsoever!!!
THAT WAS FUNNY!
So funny!!  Yes, we know how to focus and concentrate and we know how to DROWN out nonessentials of background noise.
Funny....
I sent a resume to them and one of the questions was how much ESL do I do. I told them over 50% and that was why I was leaving my current job. They emailed me back and said based on my ESL answer, I was not a suitable candidate for their company.
lol that was funny

Mac, you are 2 funny. nm

That's funny...
I don't care who you are!
funny
 And I like your name - Mari Wisely Cute !
LOL! That's funny...nm
This has never happened to me, not once. I have taken many tests and aced them and my email inbox was filled with email offers. I have 20 years experience and told them up front what I made/wanted. I think some MTs just can't face the fact that they failed the test.
TOO FUNNY
Oh, please stop with all the nonsense!! Why do you feel compelled to give out these TIPS? So, nonqualified people can give a false, yet professional-appearing resume and then you can test them and waste your time? Are you crazy? At least you can quickly eliminate those - what does it take 1.5 seconds to look and throw out? Is this your biggest job complaint? Why don't you quit complaining about your job - do you really expect to get all perfect resumes!! Hello - anyone home in there?? I thought evaluating a resume was part of a recruiters job - respond to good ones and don't to the bad ones...you act like you want these folks working at Super Wal-Mart to present a nice resume -Now, why would you desire that?
These jobs are posted on the INTERNET - expect some crazy people !!
P.S. I've had to deal w/a lot of recruiters who need some serious help, but I don't feel compelled to give out any suggestions - they would not listen anyway. Its simple when the company/recruiter is ever rude, unprofessional, unorganized, giving false info - I move on. You get a joke of a resume - move on!!
TOO FUNNY !
SAme thing happened to me ! After I resigned from Focus, It took them a good two weeks afterward to acknowledge my notice of resignation. They are sooooo ignorant and unprofessional !
How funny..
I was paid late. Supposed to have been paid Friday and still waiting.
MOST of the time DD works better than waiting for checks to arrive.
Thats is too funny
Sounds like sour grapes to me.
TOO FUNNY!!!!
Can tell its getting late - but Im right there with ya with the Dippity DOO
Now thats funny:)
Damn if you do and damn if you don't. Post something positive and people try to turn it into a negative. LOL>>>
That's really funny!
So, if something gets rave reviews, it can't possibly be any good? Thanks for giving me a chuckle.
As for me, I personally have experience with both companies, and you couldn't drag me back to MQ if you hitched me to a semi!
Very funny
Not ! You're an idiot. I've seen your name just me with your boasting about another company that is soooo crooked beyond belief!!!! Getting jealous because KS is getting more positive attention are we?
that's funny
because I have worked for Priority Transcription for over 5 years and NEVER had a problem getting paid. I have even received bonuses for meeting TAT! Maybe there was a reason you didn't get paid!!!
Funny how OSI is in bad need of MTs
so one person gets on here with all this crazy talk about how great they are. Anyone who has worked for this company knows what a nasty little place it is. Trust me, OSI has lost all the good ones. The only people there are ones the other companies will not talk to. Just makes ya go hmmmmmm!
That is funny since she is gone and you are not. Be the
s
Funny you should say that (sm)
I have made up my mind to stay off message boards and focus, and I have, but not completely. Still visit occasionally. I had increased production, though. Hmmm. I really was trying to type faster though, so that's probably it.
LOL! Me too. I don't know if that is funny or
xx
Funny....sm
I think Medquist has so much work because most MTs left and went to Transtech and now TransTech hasn't enough work! I know of a few MQ MTs who went to TT... coincidence? The workloads haven't changed, only the MT load.
Wish it wasn't so and sincerely hope TT gets back on even ground, they seem like such a nice company. On the other hand, MQ is getting what they ordered IMHO.
Now THAT is funny!
Funny you should ask...
I don't do anything other than MT from home, but I just saw something on TV last night where a lady has made her own business called The Handwork Studio teaching children how to knit. It looked to me like she sat about 6 children around a table and was teaching them how to knit. I thought what a wonderful idea. So many are looking for things like this for their children for the social interaction. The lady said she is having the time of her life. Do you have a hobby that you could share in regards to teaching a class? Made me wonder....
That's funny! You know something....
I am not the only person who uses *hmmmm.....* as a username here  .
How FUNNY.
Funny,
that is exactly what came to my mind when I heard it, LOL. Now I do not feel so dumb thinking it was funny, thank you. 
lol, you so funny :)
