Poster means work any possible time you can to get in your lines.

This means editing: 15 lines pro minute,
or 1/3 of a line pro SECOND.
To keep this tempo, you cannot make a SINGLE correction.
Even READING at this tempo is almost IMPOSSIBLE.
Do you think we are dummies that you can sell this to us?
Are you a VR sales person?
"Paid" just means it comes out of the vacation lines
.
Wow! This means 19 pages in 1 hour! One page has 40 lines.
This I will n e v e r , e v e r believe, only if I see it with my very own 2 blue eyes!
LOL !
They work with you to make sure you get the lines required or the amount of lines you want...
I have never had a problem getting more work
She probably means the lack of work.
Always had a ton of work to make up, but never had any work to make it up with...always got e-mails telling me everything looked good, BUT I needed to get my line counts...it was literally impossible for me on my account and my supervisor never got in touch with me when I e-mailed multiple times about getting other accounts. Got multiple e-mails about how good I was doing and just regular company e-mails daily, but never anything about another account. I got frustrated with never going over $300 every two weeks working 25 hours a week. 
Other than that everything was great about the company. No complaints other than that. Would still be there if that wasn't the case.
IC means they cannot tell you WHEN to do the work, only X amount
Otherwise by IRS definition you ARE an employee. I have been seeing a lot of ads lately where companies want ICs for particular hours, and I can't believe people fall for that. The definition of IC versus employee is simple: Who has control? If you have control, you are IC. If the company has control, you are an employee.
If there is no work everyday almost all day, that means how does anybody?
how can you meet any kind of line count? I can't being on and off all day.
i love EHR!!! means I can work from anywhere

What it means: "Not enough US MT's who want to work
Reading between-the-lines:
'--- which is exactly what we planned when we dropped US MT pay, so we'd have an *excuse* to choose offshore first, US workers second.'
That eScription ad sure goes against 'Truth-in-advertising', doesn't it?
80% of work is VR/20% is straight which means...
probably 95% is VR or it is an overflow account...but you are right, just saw an IC for 8 cpl for 3rd shift!!!
outsourcing means the work is sent outside the office
so if they do not have an inhouse transcriptionist, they outsource the work to a service or IC. Off shoring is work done somewhere outside U.S. However, most people do not make a distinction between the two. Outsourcing CAN BE offshoring and often is used interchangeably.
She means asking MTs to work OT but not record hours
not her own
I think she means clinic work in general.

"Just me" means just me and no one else, that simple, go to work
nm
1200 lines daily is great if you have the work, personally, I never had enough work so
I left and have NEVER been sorry!
NO WORK at Transtech -- did no good to work the holiday for 1.5 lines, did it?
I am sure the office staff will share their PAID HOLIDAY MONIES with us who sit here with no work. This has gotten to be such a frustrating profession. I guess I need to relocate to Houston so that I can work in the office, too, and reap those wonderful paid benefits that us at-home piecemeal workers do not get.
Webmedx - low work ? Can you make up lines when work available (sm)
or do you have to schedule a make up time or just do without the lines?
George says what he means or is it he means what he
but he sure does apologize in a way I've never heard a person whose company is valued at $8m a year apologize before and I've worked for companies who played who is the president of the week game! All I can say is that his personal interview about his high school reunion has a distinctly different style than his late January postings in which he degrenates the poster he tries to engage. Just remember George's quote we are misinformed.
Can only get lines if there is work and that has been
a rarity lately, but they still keep advertising for more help.
Yep, but be sure to ask how many have to work 40 anyway to get their lines. nm

I'd just like to have some work!! I ran out after only 172 lines! UGH! nm
x
I dont know what that means. I am an SE. I dont sit and wait for work I come back in when it is
there so I never had to deal with Amherst when there was no work because I just stopped working and did other things. My feeling is if this doesnt work there are other jobs out there.
Where do you work making all those lines?
nm
IC cannot be told I need you to work between 1 and 5 but they can say I need these lines by
:+
Do you have enough work? 1000 lines a day?
I have read on some of the threads that there is not enough work to keep everyone busy.
If you can't get your lines because of lack of work what
good is it going to do to pay a bonus based on lines produced. I'm not dumb enough to be fooled by that ploy.
What crap! I get my lines in and they ask me to work
extra all the time. There is no way to indicate OT, just total lines, at least on my accounts. Everything I say can be documented. You need to get your facts straight before you start throwing that BS around.
If you ask for more lines, they'll work with you (NM)
:D
Where I work we were told we HAD to get our lines in - sm
So right now many of us have been camping out at the computers fighting for every line we can get. Not sure I am going to last much longer at this pace. 
How many hours in a week do you normally work to get your lines in?
Just curious. I work 50-plus hours here to make it work for our family, would love to cut back
Is it hard to get lines at Precyse? Does work run
nm
2000 lines per day, what kind of work are you doing? nm
xx
You will work many hours over 40 to meet your lines nm
nm
How do you get your required lines if there was no work at DSG or Keystrokes. Is
that a problem with them if there is no work or what do you do. Thanks!
I was referring to the no work situation and getting in lines. nm
:
Beyond Text doesn't work long enough to allow you to get any lines. nm
nm
Can you say where you work where it's so easy to make your lines? All I come across is crap out
s
Just wondering - how many hours do you normally have to work to make your 500 lines? Thanks! NM
NM
Even if you're FT, you'll be lucky to have enough work to get your lines,
x
I work on Scribe...very easy to get lines in my opinion...
money is also decent...
Nice people to work with. Lines never added up though.
I couldn't tell you about the benefits because I was part-time and didn't need them at that time. They use Dragon MT as their platform. I personally didn't like it.
Very neg. posts about TH - running out of work, getting nasty when you don't make your lines. TC
s
Keystrokers - do you work in Word - Can you use ShortHand - How many lines for fulltime? Thanks
nm
Good luck, I think everyone enjoys the lines from psych work. (nm)
When you run out of work doyou have to make up lines/hours to keep bennies? (nm)
,
2000 lines, I havent done that in years. What work type do you do? nm
xxxx
I work that, had TONS all day long, never ran low got to 1500 lines WITHIN my shift too. nm
nm
If you are doing 2400 lines in an 8 hour day, working 5 accounts +, running out of work on all 5,
then pray tell us how you are doing it. I certainly would like to share this with MQ because I also have done this many years, know my work, and there is no way to do 2400 lines because most days all the accounts are out of work.
listening
Who here is required to type 1800 lines on a daily basis for FT work?
x
Well, what do they do when people dont meet their required lines due to no work. Most ridiculous
thing I ever heard of. Overhire and then I expect MTs are to work 24/7 to get in required lines. Nothing like making a total fool out of people. Hardly worth making minimum wage now is it.
