When did you get offer from TransTech? We just got email saying they were NOT hiring . . .

Just wondering how we are going to pay our bills for the next 5-6 months at TT.  It has been very tough for a very long time, because of lack of work due to TT overhiring, anticipating new accounts, as all companies do -- HIRE BEFORE THE ACCOUNTS COME ONBOARD and maybe not even get the accounts when that times comes. 

My question is when were you offered a job with TransTech?????

or maybe they are saturated with applicants right now???

saying which shifts and days they are hiring for.  Care to share what they said so I will know whether to bug them.  If it is not allowed here on this board no problem and I will apply anyway.  Thank you.

rub us struggling MT's when she sent out that email to us.  She didn't say how many went to LV -- just bye . . . we're off! 

Enjoy the light of the Dictaphone flashlight begging for a job for you, while we enjoy the lights of Vegas !

YUK !  Totally irritated this TT MT.  Sickening, in fact.

available due to some MT's on vacation *probably looking for job*.  We are TAT up-to-the-minute, so NOTHING to get excited about at TT. 

Same ole grab-it-while-it-is-there workload.  LOW, LOW, LOW.

you email me please.

First of all, I have worked on VA as a primary before, and one should easily be able to get 1200 lines in an 8-hour period.  I've gotten 1500-1700 a day working VA if I work steadily for 8 hours.  We do get paid time off and that amount has just been increased (10 days per year the first year).  We get holiday pay (6 days) as well as celebratory day (4 days) pay, an extra amount per line for every line that we do on those days.  There are also incentives offered all the time.  I just started a 401K and OSi matches 100% of my contribution (up to 4% a pay period, fully vested), which is very generous. We also get a raise every year on our anniversary date. Sure...maybe that amount could be a little more...but some places you can go for years and get nada.

The months of October and November, we're getting a bonus just for meeting our minimal lines for the month, and if we exceed those, the bonus is even higher.

It seems there are people out there, specifically on the QA of things, who aren't happy with how things went for them.  I don't know anything about that, but I do know that I am very happy with OSi and you get more than a little paid time off for you 12,000 lines a pay period.
