Whoops! that should read (SM) not (nm)

I guess I'm living proof
that past behavior is a good predictor of future behavior. Did you ever have your days in the beginning when you could have been one of their cheerleaders? I know I did. Yet, I still saw those unhappy posts and, rather than automatically think they were lying, instead I wondered how they got so unhappy. I think I found the answer. 
Then I guess you don't know how to read. (sm)
It says in my original post that I DID (past tense) work for them.
I did move on and have a great job. The reason I am contributing to this thread is that I have personal experience dealing with this company and the fact that it has been going on for a long time.
I guess the cat's out of the bag regarding long
Paying LD fees, having a bill show up in the mail, and uhhhmmm I think I'd be calling Keystrokes and telling them they need to help pay for that or something. As an employee you shouldn't really have any expenses like that. Weird to me! Odd, very odd........ There have been at least three posts regarding Keystrokes and long distance. What gives? 
Guess I should have read this post first, huh ;-)
Can you be more specific as to what you need to know about a C-phone? I'll help if I can 
LOL, guess I didn't read where it said subject (sm)
See, I'm just too dang stressed. Oh well, just don't sell my address, I get enough spam as it is and never read it.
Blackswan, I had to re-read my post. Guess who
You got it, Medquist! Isn't that unbelievably coincidental that many of us went down the tubes while working so hard for them? Wonder how many of us there are, who have gone bankrupt while gainfully employed with the Squid?
Sorry - I guess we're getting to be like the Indians - we don't understand what we read
or type.
Sorry. You're right. I guess I should have read that message more closely.
Wait...let me guess. Shapin right? Can go for long without mentioning them!
If they are making the $ it is either because of working round the clock or whizzing through with poor quality. I am thinking whizzing through because in past postings they are very busy with posting negative things here. I make 4 cpl and listen to everything as required. I do well, but to do it right and be thorough you would not make big $ at 1.5.
MT TOO LONG - please read my
other e-mail before you make a decision - some people may have had a good experience, but I hope you consider mine,too, as a clue to the management. I was treated like a piece of crap.
And here's another example -- If I could have kept my mouth shut, I would have, but HOW could I keep my mouth shut with this going on?
Whoops!
Make that WORKING, not WORK. Tired!
whoops
Too fast, too early! I mean SOME, not soem mighty good jobs.
Whoops, should be an rather than and. :) nm
Whoops
I meant to say purchased, not purchases. Guess you can tell I worked all night!
Whoops, a bit over 39,000, SM
Want to stay honest. But I know of people with over 50K and climbing. It IS an obsession. :)
whoops
meant to say the person who said, not people who said it was run by Bernie Madoff wannabes was correct. That person really has it pegged correctly.
whoops - "floated to top" - you ARE
at the top end of the VR pay scale. Good for you.
whoops, go FOR it, too early
xx
Whoops, the cat needs more coffee!
I meant to say if we really are PROFESSIONALS, not PROFESSIONS. Too early on this coast! :)
Whoops that should have been lines paid nm

Whoops. I meant quiet suddenly. nm

WHOOPS, referring to companies who do not offshore.

Whoops! Meant agree with MTing - not MTer!
..
Do you have proof of this buy out?
Very interesting stuff here
That is no proof.

There is proof - as there was proof for OSI
There is validity to the MTs on this board. They provided the proof for the administrator to oust OSi from here, and if need be, they will be able to provide proof regarding Transcend. You just have to weigh what is important to you. I personally will not give my time or talents to any company not willing to go with 100% US based help. That's my preference, yours is up to you.
100% proof
Actually, you are to proof 100% but you are not requird to proof to voice 100%. However, I always did that anyway because if my name is going on it, it is going to be correct.
You have proof?
I'd love to see the proof. I heard they use US MTs only.
Proof
Do you really have any proof of this? I think if not, you are getting a lot of people upset, especially with the holiday season coming up. On the other hand, if you do, please provide what you know so others can make decisions about what to do.
I think you need some proof that it is bad -
you are probably going to have to deposit it at your bank and wait for it to come back to you. Be forewarned though, your bank will charge you a fee when it is returned (usually between $5-10). Then you can take it to the magistrate court and take out a warrant for a bad check.
Good Luck!
How about they added an ad. I proof all day, can't seem to
do it when I don't have to.
Where is that published? Need PROOF!
/
Do you have proof that they offshore?
/
what kind of proof do you want:?
and still have proof of it ALL after 2 years! There will always be those who have a good experience at a company and assume that it is the same for everyone at that company. Sorry to burst your bubble, but that is not the case.
Yes and it was not a claim..have proof. Thanks

I have no proof but believe they do. I used to work in QA and the
work was so bad I had to almost completely redo the reports. That was 3 to 4 years ago, and an owner of another MT board asked if they offshored. I don't know what she knew that made her question it. I wouldn't be surprised if they offshored because they can't keep U.S. MTs.
There ya go, proof positive!

Recession proof job
In these uncertain times, just curious how everyone sees the outlook of an MT? With voice recognition, how do you see the job market in 10 years? I am an instructor at a local small community college that teaches basic transcription and this is a topic of discussion. Any help would be appreciated!
Recession proof .. ??
I think that you need to tell your students we are in a situation now that eludes all reason as tight money makes us all possible victims of this recession. If hospitals or businesses cannot borrow money in a fluid way then payrolls become a problem. Otherwise, MT is not going away, but it is changing and to stay relevant you have to change with the time and the technology, which drives the train. A dose of realism is often the best way to make a point.
As for recession proof sm
I feel pretty recession proof.
I have 2 jobs and will make more as an MT this year than I have ever have. I don't work as much or as hard as you might think. I am break taker and if I actually spent 8 hours a day physically typing I would be surprised, but I will still come up over $45K this year. It is my speed and accuracy that allows me to be the break taker I am. When I am at the keyboard, I AM ALL IN and when I break, I break.
I am also aware that MT is changing, but not going away. I don't feel taken advantage of and I don't feel I am underpaid. I don't think that corporations are squeezing me or that I have overseas competition. I feel that as MTs go, I am sitting right up there at the top of the heap. If either of my companies start reducing staffing levels, I will not be one of the ones they let go. In the one case, I know I would be the first on the list to be retained. I don't actually worry about having a job or finding a new one when needed. My problem is usually fielding offers and deciding which one to pick.
This is not most of us though and I understand that. I worry for those of you who are not at the top of this profession and will have to worry about where it is going a lot sooner than I shall.
Proof that WMX reads here.

Like I said I don't proof every post on here. As far as my work goes,-sm
I proof everything I send in. I retract my statment about you being an embarrassment to the MT community; you are actually an embarrassment to the human race.
Kudos to you Admin!! Ty whoever had the proof too!
xx
Only if administrator of board can be given proof.
