Still laughing....
at 'are they flexible' and 'sit for 8 hours day'. Oh my!
Laughing here
You said I would love to QA you stuff myself. I just love it. You probably just need to stick with whatever else you are trying to do.
cant stop laughing

I am laughing here as I cannot take a test
I want to use my pedal but.........this is crazy.... never mind the test is too ridiculous!
Look for lawsuits. Like we need someone laughing at us.

I am laughing so hard here...
Don't let someone make money off of our sweat and tears, when we could be making that money ourselves. TTD can go fly a kite for sure! 
Not even close - laughing
I am just one who has been trying to offer 'food for thought' posts, that's all.
I'm sorry, laughing so hard
I can't type this.
I can't stop laughing! Nice one! nm

I'm crying over here laughing so hard
no message so you don't have to bother looking inside the post. I thought same thing when I first got here...thought boy is this NM lady annoying. LOL!
Rolling on the floor laughing .... nm

Done psych and almost died laughing
at the reports we would get. It was adult/adolescent drug and psych wards. I loved it, thought easy and not boring. Remember the time the man kept complaining about his neck hurting. Went to 1 doctor after the other, no help, no one listening. He finally had enough and got a noose, got a chair and decided to hang himself and end it all. He jumped off, popped his neck and guess what, sorta like a chiropracter, solved his problem and he was a happy man. Just 1 of the many.
when you are finished laughing, pls read
I strongly disagree with you. To say all MTs are highly skilled is to demean the whole group. There are roughly -- very roughly -- two categories of MTs. There are those who do it because they can stay home and breed their chihuahas and herd their babies. Then there are those who absolutely love the field of medicine and work for that reason. I began in-house and never dreamed that I would eventually work from home. The MTs who are willing to research Hiszysrinksigo's syndrome instead of blanking it SHOULD be paid more per line than the puppie brokers.
I am laughing at there is always work on second and third shifts. If you say so.
Go on with the bashing. Im prepared.
If I could only figure it out...stop laughing...LOL

I don't see ONE single post where anyone is laughing at the SM
MT who is owed the money. NOT ONE. We are laughing at the so-called friend who comes on here insulting and bashing anyone who *dares* to ask a question about the situation and who stoops as low as to insult people about anything from their screen name (which is really mature) or saying they are in a 12-step program or calling people insecure just because of their screen name. THAT is what we are laughing at. I would think that was quite obvious...
Fell off my chair laughing so much at that!
Thanks for the laughter. Hahahahahahaha....
While you are laughing, that might not be a good thing because
I thought I was reading up at the top of this that the pay for VR at TT was 3.5 which is even less than what this person is making. I think at 3.5 or less folks are really going to be unhappy.
Losing ANY job is no laughing matter
.
sick and on treatment and they were laughing?
honestly, one day these people will get their due.. unreal that people can laugh at someone's misfortune, an employee no less. Tacky and sad.
CrankyBeach, how can I be laughing even as my BP rises?
I've of course had the insurance company experience with an illness of our own, so your too-vibrant description of doing it all day has my stress level leaping even as I relax waiting for my smothered chicken to finish. Never on this earth. Maybe in the afterlife if I'm very bad.
Hey, stewed, laughing as I read this one
A gourdboard, who would have thought that 1 up!!
Rolling on floor laughing my butt off.

Oh how silly of me! Thanks! (nm)

Silly!
In France all they do is strike and riot!
silly me...
I thought this board was for discussion, as in two sides of the issue, not just complaining, and for sharing among our profession.
I am not judging anyone having a hard time making ends meet. I am simply saying some people have got lousy attitudes. They would rather complain than do anything to improve their situation. Case in point, how sad that you think the purpose of a discussion board is simply to complain and how sad that you have no one else to talk to - like a person whose face you can see. But frankly, if someone thought my only purpose was to listen to them complain, i guess i wouldn't want to talk face to face with them either. It's not that I don't have anything to contribute; it's just that you don't want to hear anyone who actually is satisfied in their job or thinks changing is better than wallowing.
This is kind of silly, isn't it?
I agree with the poster who said that people are entirely too quick to use the term racist. At any rate, I think enough has been said.
I was just being generally silly - but not
sure who my cohorts are! I assure you, I'm a lone jokester.
such a silly comparison.
While clarification from a supervisor is always a good idea, to compare asking for input here from other MTs to ''flagging down strangers on the street'' is pretty silly. (about as ridiculous as declaring it shows ''rampant mental illness'')
don't have to be a psychiatrist also to see this is silly ... sm
woohoo ... of 28 lines one day and this and that .. BFD.
Trust them and stay with them and work your fingers off insteady of coming here and trying to stir up trouble ......... or ........ move on and find a company you can trust and don't have to perform 20 different line counting programs to verify .. sheesh.
I'm glad Friday and Saturday are my days off ... this makes me tired ... LOL
I feel silly for saying this, but sm
I really have literally cried a time or two when yet another CP popped up I had never seen before and I could see the next job was yet a different one I had neer seen before and neither one would I likely see again.
I used to be able to transcribe 2000 to 2200 lines per day and made excellent money last year (I was one of the 2006 cheerleaders) but this past pay period, I am lucky to get in 1700 lines a day. I know that's still over the req, but it isn't good enough for me. My DH is a good breadwinner and we are comfortable and not in financial trouble, but the lack of desperation does not mean I am willing to be treated in such a cavalier manner, particularly when I am certainly not cavalier about the work I produce.
I have worked for other companies (non-MT) before that have had new CEOs or have been bought out and the same thing happened with all of them. Every time I hear about major changes going on I cringe. Last year's changes turned out to be great for me but beginning in April of this year, when all my accounts went ASR, things began to slide (I can type MUCH faster than edit ASR) and on July 1, it all went to Hades. I know ASR is a permanent fixture so I've gotten used to that, but the World Wide Pool is another matter.
I have applied several places. I have heard from two. But it was Lee I was really interested in. Unfortunately, I have only five years' experience so I can't compete with yours. I don't begrudge you this opportunity, though. We will both end up with something better, regardless. :-)
I DO WORK THERE SILLY!!!!!
Obviously you DON'T....LOL!!!!!!
Now what was silly about my comment?
I just wanted to make sure that the company was being plugged by an ACTUAL employee. I'm glad you are happy there at Axolotl. 
You silly girl!
nm
I agree about this being a bit silly
Who knows who posts these things? It could be a very well connected person who owns another MTSO who is a friend of someone who got the e mail. We don't know who how people heard about this e mail. So to say it is someone working at TT now is not necessarily true. And about the guy being foreign, give me a break. The guy has a name from Europe. Guess what, my name is European and my family has been here for over 100 years. Someday I hope that people just wait and see what happens before they begin to panic and post here. If you run out of work, call and ask for more. They answer the phones. If you are upset and worried about the new company, call the new HR person, she is available. If you have a concern call and talk to your supervisor, I have. If you want out get out. But as the other poster said above, it says in our agreement with TT HR that one of the rules of the handbook is no rumors. Communicate with the supervisor. If you have a beef, get on the phone! I myself am a bit fed up hearing TT praises, then TT bashes. Like this place gets bipolar sometimes. Now I am off to work, which I have because I communicate with my sup. See ya.
This is getting silly now. Please use your common
Volunteering is not illegal in and of itself. Let's see, I could volunteer to bake donuts for a PTA cake sale. But if I volunteered at home to bake donuts for the local bakery to sell daily, that would be illegal. Bakeries are regulated and have to meet rigorous health dept codes, etc. If you're a putz, you can volunteer to transcribe for an MTSO, but again, it has to be set up professionally, and NO I am not sure that it is legal to work for free. I can't go into ShopRite and volunteer to work for the day stocking shelves. What if something happened while I was working there? Slip and fall? It just isn't legal. Then you compare volunteering to an internship program. Apples and oranges. Of course, an internship program is a different entity and whoever was running one would already know all the legal guidelines and have them in place. But, NO you cannot transcribe medical records on a volunteer basis while someone else farms you their work on an informal basis, while they get paid for it, submitting it to someone else who hired THEM, not YOU, to transcribe it. Its called subcontracting, and its a legal matter, not like volunteering to walk somebody's dog for them while they are on vacation. Please, please consider our career a profession.
Probably sounds silly but...
I used to think a coupon for a free pizza once in awhile would have been nice, ha-ha. I'm not hard to please but I know you're right, somebody will always find fault with a gift.
Your post is really silly...sm
she has to have your SS# to cut you a check.
Not VR, silly goose!
''Exciting new technology! This is all ''newspeak'' and George Orwell would be so very proud.
What a silly concept
You make a case that wages are stagnant - but miss that people might not be happy about that?
Perhaps you are not affected by wages that don't increase while the cost EVERYthing does - but the vast majority of people are affected.
And do I have it right? You are complaining - about people complaining?
I don't know about silly, but it is causing OSi grief.
mission accomplished!!
Well that is just silly, unless you are getting round the clock pay.
And I highly doubt that. I was a recruiter, doesn't pay all that great.
That is honestly a silly comment now on top of the
other mess. You do it, not the cents per line? Honestly, its just fact that if one were making 10 cpl versus 7 cpl there would be a difference. This is too weird.
Silly - they'd rather whine - we have tons.
nn
OMG I had the SAME reaction to this silly job post
I wouldn't work for *that* person for 10 cpl, much less 7 cpl!
I adore animals, and care deeply about my work, but the ad said much more about the person supervising/managing than they may have realized.
Not management, think it silly to ask OP question
x
Not that silly, a lot of people forget about
It kinda slips your mind when you're so used to communicating via email. I've found, though, that even if I can't get a reply on email, I get an answer on the phone pretty quickly. I'm sure some companies get bogged down in emails so a phone call also shows them you're serious. Plus, if your email contact isn't terribly helpful, you might get someone on the phone that's more helpful anyway.
You're welcome! Good luck!
Don't you two think you are being just as silly as the ones you label as "negative?" sm
If you want to say hello, why not talk via Yahoo Messenger, which everyone in the company uses. I saw your names on the company-wide emails, so why not just do your handshake there?
I think both sides are being a bit silly here. There are good and bad points to any company, and those who ferociously defend without acknowledging the bad points are just as wrong as those who ferociously attack without acknowledging the good points. Actually, watching this today, I have to say the good guys look worse than the so-called negative types. Your bashing of them is just as negative as the things you accuse them of being.
I myself am Switzerland in all of this. It is just a paycheck. I don't care if it comes from India or Des Moines, Iowa. If it is accurate, on-time, and a decent wage, I am happy. I don't have a problem with the headquarters being in India. The people there are sweet and kind and do their jobs professionally -- what more could you ask?
I have the week off, but I think ALL of you should get back to work and quit trying to one up each other. Just my opinion ... a**es and opinions .. we all have them. 
Don't you notice how silly your comments are?..nm
nm
that was me silly, I was talking to you. I posted that right before your post came up!
That's silly. Its a typing platform, not a company!
Many companies use it, or used to use it. I even said that I knew people weren't lying about Vienetta out of job worries as the company I was going to work for was a 2 woman local office run out of a garage. Lots of MTs educated me about Vienetta on this forum, and they weren't my competition at all! Nor am I out to keep the original poster from taking a job using Vienetta. Just shared with them the info that was shared with me a while back. Shame on you to imply otherwise.
