You're right, she is very nice

In Reply to: She's a nice lady but there isn't - much consistency to the work.
I worked for her, oh, maybe a year and a half ago. She gave me work for a while, and then all of a sudden I didn't hear a word from her. She reposted the position a short-time later and I emailed her back wondering if I had done something wrong since I hadn't received any work from her in a while. She said she was glad I got back to her because she had lost my email. If I'm not mistaken, I worked for her again for a short while and the same thing happened. I never contacted her, and since that time the job opening has been on her three times.

You're welcome! Nice to see it, huh?!

You're too nice. I was going to tell her to go to work somewhere else - LOL

You're welcome! Likewise to you! Nice meeting you!
Maybe I'll see ya in MQ world!! 
Now, now. Glad you're having a nice experience but no need to
By the way, I worked at Precyse a year ago and had a terrible time getting specific questions answered. Maybe it's a problem with individual supervisors. It's unfair to discount others' experiences.
I still think the company has good potential.
Yes, they do allow split shifts and they're very nice to work for

Obviously, you're all nice people - both companies are blessed to have you
 I've seen so many ugly remarks on this website that I was actually afraid to even post for opinions - but each and every one of you have been honest and most of all respectful. I didn't get the response - look in the archives. I think that is a rude and nonchalant response. To answer the question and give YOUR opinion, shows concern. This is a difficult field and somehow instead of cutting each other down, we need to pull together. I'm taking this opportunity to thank each one of you who took the time to respond. 
Very nice owner, nice work, nice place - sm
the leave you alone. I left because they do not budge from their pay which was kind of mediocre. I would go back if I had to because they were extremely nice.
Very nice people, nice place to work. nm

Yes, nice QA (and nice people in general), but very little work right now. nm

Yes! Nice lady, nice company. nm

Nice post, thank you and have a nice day. nm

Hope you're enjoying those slave wages you're earning.

So you guys feel you're getting paid what you're worth with VR?
I'm not trying to be snarky. I've never done VR, so I'm trying to understand.
You're happy with your paycheck with VR? Do you find the files to be as bad as the original post implied?
So you're telling me, basically, they're bad news?
They offered me 0.095/line and you know - it sounded too good to be true, but I SWEAR the recruiter told me they do not outsource. Oh brother... I just wish they'd be honest. I really don't know what to do.
Not the OP, but they're supposed to take out all the other taxes as you're an employee with th

No, they're not losing money....they're gaining!
If a company charges their clients by the line, I'm sure that line rate does not go down even though the MTs pay does.
ASR pays about 2/3 normal line rate to its MTs. Their ultimate goal is to have the MTs do twice as much work. Therefore, the client is getting their work faster, but paying their normal rate, while corporate gets that money and the MTs get the lower line rate.
Whether the newbies want to realize it or not, MTSOs have not increased MTs' salaries in the past 10 years. They still start out at the same pay as the last century!
This used to be a very lucrative profession. Nowadays, most MTs are considered to be paid at the poverty level. You don't believe me, look it up!
Hey, you're in luck then. They're hiring! (nm)

If you're an IC, you pay all your taxes. Otherwise you're an SE or employee. nm

If you're PT you're required to work
8 of your hours in one weekend day. There's no extra pay for it though.

We're not 'so scared' of it. We're trying to help
you to not make a huge mistake, but I guess you're determined to learn the hard way, so good luck with that.
If you're in the 37% tax bracket, you're making over
100K per year. Quit complaining.
You're right on it! They're just trying to cause panic.

How can you KNOW what you're doing without THINKING you know what you're doing?

they're desperate because they're sm
driving away all their employees with the horrible new changes they're implementing. It's a mass exodus, and they couldn't keep up with their work load before all the departures.
We're glad you're gone too.
The more people that quit, the more work left for me. I love it when people say they can't take doing MT anymore.
Well, i hate to tell ya, but if you're an IC, you're

Yep! And it's a NICE one, too, for each
full-time referral! The trick there is the new employee has to be meeting their minimum line requirement by 90 days. Good luck!
If you can't say something nice about ... sm
someone/something, don't say anything at all. Then again, I also learned that a "cranky (sic) sailor is a happy sailor" - there is no need for all these people to gripe for no reason except to have their "voice" be heard. Sheesh
Wow, that is so nice of you to say.
I think I know who you are, but please email me tomorrow.
You are such a sweetheart. People like you make my job so much easier. You know, we really try to keep our MT's happy cause Sue and I are MT's and we know what the deal is.
Candy, give me a call or an email tomorrow. That is so nice. MDI has gotten such bad press from this board and you know, I didn't even know how to post and Sue explained it. Duh???
Thanks again,
Liz
they are nice
decent people
She is very nice
I have talked to Jean M. a few times already. I just accepted their offer Friday and wanted to be sure I understood what they had told me. What they told me sounded very good. I am looking forward to starting. They are going to let me work a split shift. I am on evenings now with 2 little boys and it makes it hard.
They were very nice. sm
The two things I did not care for was the unlimited long distance, and their software Bayscribe. Even though it was easy to use, the spellcecker is way too outdated. I did not care for that at all.
Yes..of course..say something nice about OSi
I agree. Based on the writing, wording used, and the same old themes used over and over, it really does seem like the same couple of bitter people complaining about OSi. I don't know what has brought them out of the woodwork all of a sudden. Doesn't really matter to me. I'm happy there. I'm not a newbie, wasn't when I started, and have been there 3 years now. I hope to be there for a long time to come.
WOW, must be nice!!
I have a little over 9 years. 30+ years, way to go!!!
That's nice. They still are not MTs.

It would be nice to know what the
for most of the ER MTs and for most of their acute care MTs so we could get a general feel for what can truly be achieved. I have also heard they have several platforms and wonder which ones are the most MT friendly.
Nice try - someone from QA?
LOLOLOLOL
Oh that is so much BS. QA has always been very nice to me. Everybody's nice.
nm
Nice-
It is nice to be appreciated now and then.
Have a nice day to you all! nm
Thanks, that's nice of you (sm)
I figured the KS people would be happy to get the lost IDs back after a fashion. Maybe the 3 people who had to stop last week can start on it again. It's news to me that KS was getting it all, though. But that hospital wasn't up front with us about many things. I hope you all are making good money on it, I couldn't make much money on that platform even with my IT.
I doubt that there will be severance, though. I'm just a little in shock that it was so fast; I figured we'd have another week or so at least. I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone.
Hey, that's not nice. I'm sure they let her off QA
because, after looking at her reports, they see that she knows what she is doing!
Again - not nice!
You have no idea what dictators she got. I was off QA after the first day at my current job. One of the reports I transcribed on my first day I received back with a note about how exceptionally difficult the dictator was, and what a great job I had done. QA had to leave a number of blanks in that one. It was awful. I still got released from QA, because that horrible, terrible dictator gave me a chance to show what I was made of. If I could handle that guy, I could handle anybody, and I do. Maybe you haven't reached the level of experience and competence to be released from QA in very short order, but there are those of us who certainly have. Maybe some day you'll get there. In the meantime you shouldn't insult those of us who have worked so hard to excel in this field.
That's nice to know. Thanks. nm

Must be nice (sm)
I do work 7 days a week. I transcribe until 11 at night most of the time. I work 3 transcription jobs. I have absolutely no life, no quality time.
I make 8.25 cpl for one company
7.25 cpl for another
9 cpl for a third
The 8.25 cpl job is basically straight typing, no headers, no footers, no demographics to fill in. I can crank out 500 lines an hour but I'm only given 500 lines-700 lines per day to transcribe.
7.25 cpl is VBL, ESL and small amount of work
9 cpl is lots of demographics to fill in, small little notes and not a lot of work but it takes double the time the 8.25 cpl job does.
I would give my eye teeth to make 12 cpl and be able to do 500 lines per hour at the same time. Stopping and starting, filling in demographic blanks and forms takes up so much time that I'm lucky if I make $2200 a month but again, 7 days a week and no life away from the computer.
Nice!
Well I emailed them and asked what that was all about with no response. I guess that is what they are going to give. I will be staying away from them in the future and would suggest people to do the same. This is highly highly unprofessional in my opinion.
