Y'all want some cheese with that whine?

Whine, whine whine, entitlement, sm
entitlement!
Need some cheese to go with that baloney?
What a transparent inside post!
Where is it defined what this board is for?
You say it is for comments on companies which is a broad definition but certainly includes the scope of commenting on poor BUSINESS practices -
And IF there WAS only one disgruntled (perhaps actually WRONGED?) employee, then that person's comment(s) would not have been able to snowball.
The company in question should have, a long time ago, attempted to address the complaints against them, you know maybe a BEER summit (hey it worked for those not paying attention)! Instead they appear to have escalated the situation and now it may spiral out of control.
I SAY BOTH SIDES TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND CALL A BEER (OR WINE) SUMMITT.
The ONLY PARTIES WHO WILL WIN HERE are the lawyers!!!
Handing OP a slice of cheese.

well, swish cheese is wrong. Maybe you just did not do well enough. nm

Then don't whine when they send YOUR job
to India.
I for one am making less now than I was a decade ago while working more hours. I used to get paid gross lines, headers, footers, headings, CCs, demos, everything. Now, I'm cheated out of all those things even though I still have to search and type them. I'm also paid half-rate for ASR which is so bad that it takes nearly the same amount of time as straight transcription. I've also been laid off because of sending entire accounts to India.
If you want to keep your head in the sand until, not caring what's happening to fellow MTs until it actually hurts you, then fine. But I think we have VERY GOOD REASON to be upset about the cuts in pay and the offshoring of our jobs.
Oh yeah - cheese and wine! Crackers too?

she used to be the secretary for the chief cheese -- no clue!!! don't do it.

She is talking about reports that are sent to QA looking like swiss cheese...
some MTs just think the QA gals will fix it for them and don't care what happens to the report or what kind of mistakes they have made...that is what the above poster is talking about...of course we are paid to fill in blanks and be a second set of ears but not to do incompetent MTs jobs for them...I am QA and MT so I understand both sides...if you are not an incompetent MT you should not take offense to this posting...
Silly - they'd rather whine - we have tons.

Excuse me, but where in my post did I whine? I just tried to help. sm
I am relatively happy with my situation. I am sorry that you took it as whining. Hope you have a happy day.
That post was not a whine. It was just stating facts. sm
I love my job. I love the challenge and the sense of accomplishment. I feel proud of what Keystrokes has become because I have contributed to this success and growth.
Not all of our MTs are problematic, but life sometimes gets in the way of working, and as a KS manager, I help out where I can. This is my job, and I love it, but I realize that it is not for everyone. I am blessed to do something I love for a company I love to work for.
I have one suggestion..If there is no work. MOVE ON..why whine and complain on here EVERY day. I
agree with Jay. Maybe other people have OTHER things they would like to talk about besides being out of work every day at TransTech. I will say this.. with that much controversary and unhappy there, I would never work there and neither should you if your so miserable. Obviously, something is really wrong with that picture. Now, move on.. You can do better.
Agree. I have said this before --- y'all whine about no work but when there's a ton of work
do you? Just wondering. I find this perceived hostility completely out of character for TT.
