while they're gone? I already have enough trouble having to press this and press that to get through their phone menu when I have a simple question. I'm glad they felt they need to give their STMs a trip, that must be where our Christmas gift went.

Guess we all can't be put on good accts. Gotta be there at the right time. Both of my accts.

How you manage the 2 ??
Spose it could be ez to edit some and then type some back and forth. So youre actually making two salaries, sounds like a fantastic idea!
How did you manage that?
Just curious. I work 1 weekend day, prefer having a day off during the week, but doesn't seem fair that others have to work weekends, and you don't.
You would have to gross over $400 a day M-F. How exactly do you manage this?

If they are great, that must mean they manage well,
and if they manage well, I'm thinking they won't over-hire just because loads of resumes come in.
For $50K a year, I'd bet you'd manage a lot more
than a couple of accounts! I know several MT supes, and they are run ragged! And they don't make anything near $50K, so I am kind of skeptical about that quote. I would bet more in the $30K range. And the logic the companies use for the pay cut from MTing? That's its a guaranteed pay rather than production. I have never heard of an MT supe making that much!
Hey if anyone can MANAGE three jobs
I wouldn't want to manage in this profession if it was the last job on earth. I'd go on public assistance first! This profession has made a turn for the worse. So, I think it is pretty sad that someone needs three jobs to stay afloat. I guess I have a different perspective on things, but I am just an MT and have never managed anyone or anything other than my household! 
I sure hope they manage it better than
Honestly, they went through in-house staff faster than I changed my socks. Hire and fire was their motto for both in-house and remote transcriptionists. And talk about micromanage, well, that was a whole nuther story....
Can I manage this delicately?
I am an hourly QA at a company and because I am a high producer with a lot of bang for the buck I am given very little leeway for time off. I generally don't pay attention to what other people do and mind my own business. The problem is that a couple of my coworkers will send me IMs saying they are taking breaks, aren't feeling well and are leaving for an hour or two, their internet service is about to go out because of weather, pretend to lose internet connection if a stat comes in from an account they don't like, and on and on (yet they remain on private IMs). They do not notify our supervisor and I am left holding the bag. Our supervisor has no idea this is going on. Is there any possible way that I can do something about this other than finding another job? I am not a snoop and don't throw people under the bus, but this is so unfair.
When the work load is low how to you still manage to
You're here just like the rest of us. Are you one of those that manages to work in addition to your 8 hour shift to get it when the work is low?
I manage to get almost 20,000 lines per pay period typing.
if you really must know.
Any IC's who are single parents- How do you manage financially?
I want to try IC'ing but afraid to take the plunge!
I am a single parent of 2 and manage just fine as a SE, sm.
There is no special trick to it but I suggest before you do to write out a budget and make sure you are going to make enough to pay all your bills including a weekly amount for gas and groceries and have plenty of extra money for those unexpected expenses. Also, remember as an IC or SE there is no insurance benefits so you have to be prepared for that for you and your kids. You can do it!!!
There are companies that manage to make it work. OTI, for example. nm

Doesn't matter how many companies you work for. I'd like to know how you manage to do this???
What kind of work do you transcribe?
How many hours a day do you work?
What kind of line rate do you get from the companies you work for?
How many lines you do an hour?
Do you work as an IC or employee?
I'm very interested in hearing how you manage 100,000/year.
Maybe due to the people that manage Amherst. I think MQ would be a lot better off finding new people
up there with all the problems you hear about that office. Seems like something is very very wrong there.
MQ accts not on DQS
When our office was closed we were all transferred to Foxboro because none of our accts at that time were on the new platform, they were on MTS. Some of those accts since have gone up on the new platform and some are still on MTS--either way we still have NO WORK
No more accts on WP5.1...all are now
on the FN platform, which is Word based.
yes to all the above - at least on the accts I was on.

Not the OP, but do they have net accts now, or still

On 5 accts at DSG and still run out - nm
Been like this for months now.

Are all DRC accts on Cphones?? nm

They don't outsource VA accts because they can't (sm)
Contracts with the fedgov won't allow it. Funny how the gov't won't allow VA files to be sent overseas, but they don't bother putting a stop to the rest of ours going huh?
Webmedx does on certain accts, you have to ask. nm

I'm new to them but have only 2 accts and plenty of
nm
Proscipt new accts
Nope..just takes some getting used to. I take all the work I can get.
So is this all QA or just those on the dropped accts?
Just wondering!
re wav or internet accts
mine have been lower on work but not running out. I was told by my liasion that if there is no work you are not expected to keep your committment. I would suggest any of these things be directly discussed with your liasion so that there are no misunderstandings. Most any MT work will fluctuate some. I sure wouldn't turn away from MDI based on these concerns.
No Work Either and I am on one of the new accts
.
I have 4 accts and still run out. I am requesting another. nm.

MDI Lanier Accts
I, too, will be starting on a Lanier acct in January. Please keep us informed as to how you like it, as I am also curious, anxious to know what to expect. I worked on Lanier over 10 years ago, but can't remember what I liked or didn't like about it. Thanks for any info you are willing to provide once you get started and good luck to you!
Yes, they definitely are - new accts coming on sm
and there was a referral bonus notice put out a few weeks ago.
Dont know about accts because only
work on 1, my own doing. I do both VR and straight, 8 for straight, 4 for VR. Most days the work is fine. Slump every once in awhile.
I have no good accts, all ESL. nm
x
Maybe so, but anyone new won't be put on it. I had too many horrible ESLs on my accts. nm
s
If you like to be switched on accts all the time.
x
Do they keep changing your accts & platforms or do you have just 1 or 2
s
Any info on DonNik rad accts?
Curious specificaly in regards to the platform they use and if pay is acceptable/comparable to most other companies. Tks!
you have to go through w/any company if you work VA accts..nm
z
Me, too. Those of you that got great accts. be glad. nm
s
At least 5 new accts coming on this month sm
according to my manager.
Spme accts use E-scription

...got played. They also had accts using MedRite, so maybe

If there are backup accts then everyone should be trained on them
If there is no work and no backup account then there is a huge problem. Please clarify the above. Have you asked for a backup? As for working at Sears, Im sure if business was slow you would have to stick around but they would pay you for your time.
Execuscribe in NY has C-phone accts. Don't know about the
s
Ummm, well of course I'm not speaking for all accts..
However, I do happen to know that the majority of the accounts have ADT feed, which provides all the DI info right there...nice try though!
Some accts. might still be on the DOS software here. And mandatory OT
s
New accts. Can I beat myself with a stick now? A-G-G-H
nm
I have 3 accts and spend 85% of my time on 1 of those; sm
I almost never run out of work. Good for you that you found some place else that is a better fit for you. However, some of us are happy and do well there.
So today I see OT posted for at least 10 accts sm
on the Enterprise side. Are you still out of work today???
