Yeah, have to admit..my "dream fairy" is pretty much snuffed out. I bet there are not many dre
left out there. We are now skeptical and bitter. Time to retire and travel LOL
Okay this is nuts
I just clicked on the post asking what post I was talking about, and a little hand shows up - - I'M NOT KIDDING!!!!
ARE YOU NUTS?
TAKE IT! If you don't, let the rest of us know WHERE that job is . . .
OK THIS IS NUTS.
I went to their website and emailed from there. I still got a message saying my email is undeliverable. I'm not wasting anymore time on this. I just wanted to find a good company for part-time work to supplement my full-time (lack of) work.
lmao!! yeah maybe I'm the recruiter...suggesting that my co-worker is the problem. yeah that make

are you nuts? Documentation is not going to
go away. If anything else, it will increase due to sue-happy people.
I think you are all nuts (there is work)
nm
I would appreciate your not calling me **nuts**
I only got 5 hours during my scheduled shift yesterday and only 3 hours during my scheduled shift today, so I know for sure. No jobs.
Please know the entire story before posting such accusatory names as ***nuts***. My account has no work for me.
Yes, it drive me nuts too
I think I work for the same company as you!
You're nuts! nm
..
was it really 5,000 lines per day - that's nuts - nm
x
absolutely nuts for that pay
The job posting for 0.035/line should be removed from the site as a gross insult for the profession, though I feel that the 8 and 8.5 cents most companies pay now is also an insult! Too many MTSOs and mom/pop shops trying to take advantage of the newbies who don't know any better.
Driving me nuts!
OK, what WAS that from? I remember it, but can't put a face or name with it. Why do I want to think it's Opie from the Andy Griffith show (ok, I'm telling my age, but so are you) :)
That drives me nuts when they do that!!! sm
They say to please flex your time when work is low. Then they send out emails when things pick up and tell us we MUST be on NOW if we are short lines/hours. Yes, my life revolves around you TT! I love sitting at my computer 12 hours a day every day to accommodate YOU! arrggghhh.
All she can say is "Are you NUTS?" LOL. I'd ask. Can't hurt. SM
But did you mean 2000 lines/week or 2000 lines/day?
She did not even defend herself. She confirmed it. Nuts.

You're just plain nuts. nm

I'm sorry, but this whole thread is making me NUTS!!
You have a new job and nobody is interested in getting you started working. Somebody below has been waiting since DECEMBER? They are IGNORING YOU??? You have receipts that they are receiving your emails and IGNORING YOU, and you wonder if you should be concerned and others like you are sitting around waiting. ARE YOU CRAZY? And you are asking the public if you should be concerned? You are asking STRANGERS if you should be concerned that you have a new job that basically you don't have. This is just pure insanity and again workers like you, or nonworkers really, are what perpetuates the abuse we all receive from MTSOs. How insane is it to start a job and have no work? Would you start your first day at McDonald's and just stand there in the middle of the room if nobody helped you get started? NO. You'd get help from someone there, or you'd walk out. Why in the world you sit here in cyberland and wait is so beyond my realm of imagining that I just can't comprehend it. If you take this abuse, you deserve nothing. Its that pure and simple. Its ludicrous and its embarrassing even reading about it. Sorry.
This person is nuts. She does not know the owner, and if she did sm
she would know that she does not play slot machines. Ever. She goes to casinos a few times a year, not often, and WHO CARES WHAT SHE DOES WITH HER FREE TIME AND MONEY? I know her well and obviously this person does not. This person is obviously trying to hurt the reputation of someone who doesn't deserve to have her name ruined. The truth is that the owner works 7 days a week, more than 8 hours most days. That's why we all have enough work to keep us busy and why our benefits keep increasing and why we do not have pay cuts. Geesh. Personal attacks on someone's integrity. This board is getting worse and worse.
That must be driving you absolutely nuts.
Is it? Nuts. I have been searching all over for my contract, but I'm not sure
I ever got a signed copy back from D., though I specifically requested that she send a copy back to me with her signature on it as well.
Would you please email me. I have a few questions before I drive myself nuts with this. nm

Anybody else at Webmedx going nuts from technical hassles?
I know better than to post this on their internal message board, as anything that is not 100% happy gets deleted.
This is the 2nd week in a row of technical issues on the client's end vs issues on our end, with the MTs caught in the middle, having to twiddle their thumbs during their scheduled shift, then give up their scheduled days off and work like mad playing catchup. I guess I just want to vent and commiserate . Anybody else in my boat?
I do all that for my animals and people call me nuts!
It just depends on what your priorities are I guess. Some people do that for kids, animals, a house, a car...if it makes you happy--go for it! That whole life it too short and all...
Yeah, yeah, I spelled health wrong -
I am very angry right now and my fingers are taking it out on the keyboard.
Not anymore. I think the nuts have moved on and the owner is less stressed now. I see a sm
a much calmer atmosphere this time around. I've been back just over a year and it is night and day from four years ago.
6 cents a line for surgical reports for an ESL dictator? Are you NUTS??
I'm just absolutely appalled and disgusted... 
Yeah, yeah, AND enjoy!
 
That's going to be nuts...I do ASR work too, plus work split shifts. We'll NEED a spread shee
NT
Must be pretty far SM
I've worked for them for 2 years and never a problem.
Pretty Bad
I have no interest in working for Keystrokes, but had to check out their new and improved benefit package. It is pretty bad unless you are unlucky enough to have a couple of deaths in the family.
You could say that about pretty much every co.
You know what they say about opinions...I have seen just about every major national company being asked about on these boards at one time or another and there are always people who will have negative things to say about them. On the other hand, there are always people who will say positive things as well. The only thing you can do is educate yourself about each company by going to their website and contacting the company directly to get answers. Otherwise, it's all a lot of hearsay. JMO
I appreciate that!! I am pretty used to getting
flamed for not-so-positive comments so you are a breath of fresh air!! I hope they work out for you, I really do. I was one who loved Spheris until, well, I guess I should not say, but I hated MQ, so I guess we have both BTDT. Good luck to you, too:) I really think I have found mine with this company that just hired me. Sure hope so:)
That's pretty bad...
most editors I know make way more than that.
Most of them do, I am pretty sure.
nm
They pretty much
change things to suit themselves.... not the mt
Pretty sure they do, I have seen their
banner across a board....
Pretty much par for this course, it seems. nm
nm
Pretty much
It is very difficult to go after foreign entities due to cost and resources. I won't work for one ever. This is why many con artists in different countries get away with it. There is not much we can do.
Pretty sure
for some reasons with all the new accounts for administrative reasons they felt easier to catagorize that way. It is all one company and everything is the same. Only the accounts are designated 1 and 2.
Thanks, that's pretty much what
I am getting from everyone I ask. I just thought with them being as big as they are maybe they would have better benefits and a better rep. Thanks!
I'm pretty new
at TT myself. I've only been there a few months, but I'm very happy working for them. Have any of you asked to be taken off an account and given a different one? There are times when I really struggle with my account, and I wonder what would happen if I asked for a different one? I'm a little nervous though...what if the newer account is more of a struggle? I would be anxious about learning a new account too. Sigh. Any thoughts? Thanks!
i think that is pretty low
look elsewhere. did you try looking for jobs on mtdaily.com they have many legitimate firms looking for workers.
Pretty please.

I am pretty sure you do
need a USB.
I think I pretty much said it all, but if you have
specific questions you can e-mail me.
Im pretty sure this is it. SM

Seems pretty low to me. NM
SE and IC are pretty much the same - sm
The only difference is with SE you get part of the tax paid, whereas IC you pay it all. You have no benefits with an SE status except being able to set when you want to work, that's it. You do get to have the same tax deductions with the SE as an IC would have too.
It has been pretty low for at least the last 3
months at my company. Some accounts will dump a bunch of work on Saturday and then we have OT for 2 days, and then not enough work during the week. We do get paid for downtime though, so it isn't as bad as most have it.
