Gives nearly a whole extra day to get the work done because of the date/time line.

Mandatory extra hours?? How many?
nm
One AC has certainly asked for extra help w/o recording hours
That is a little much for somebody to make up. Also have you never been called by ops to work extra? If so that would be rare or your work is not very good. My phone rings off the hook on my days off.
A majority want 600 lpd for PT. Being able to put in extra hours varies from place to
s
Perfect for me. I have a FT job and wanting only a few hours a week extra. nm

I make 1300 per month 10 hours per week (IC) extra job
I'm the OP, just asking about extra hours in case I'm bored over the weekend and I've alrea

If you have work at TT, which is doubtful, without putting in MANY extra hours and NOT putting
the correct number of hours on your timesheet -- that is stealing work from the other MT's ! Also you are giving false information on your timesheet, which TT will eventually get into trouble for allowing you to do -- just like the Q got into trouble!
You are obviously taking the only halfway decent dictators from other MT's. Makes me sick that the leads/supes/mgmt-type people transcribe and take the cream of the crop from the MT's ! That should NOT BE ALLOWED by TT mgmt AT ALL !! !
It is DEFINITELY going on tho. TT management, you need to STOP this practice and share the fairly decent dictators with EVERYONE !
When I was hired on a number of years ago, I was told that TT had 35% ESL's. What a JOKE and untruth !
Yes but that means hiring a lot of extra people and paying out a lot of extra money when they can
have SE without all this. Their last report said they are making less money now than before and expect to make less in the next quarter so what does that say. We shall see. As part time employees you would still have to adhere to a schedule and I think people are SE for flexibility at least I am.
Gained even more since 76!
Congrats fellow class of 76er on the 10 lb. weight gain - I've gained about 100 - but as a guy I like to think it just makes me look "rugged." 
what is gained
in making a test difficult to hear unless that is the way all your dictation is. If that is the case, beware.
I would assume you would make a test to a degree of terminology difficulty that you expect in a new hire, but other than that clear.
Quig.
Gained about 26 or 27 since graduation in 1977, but
didn't weigh but 98 back then. Not too shabby.
Perhaps you should have mentioned that a lot of experience can be gained in 2 years.

Honestly, I gained my first experience with Escription working for Focus. It was my first online job
So I stayed long enough to get comfortable and then moved on. It was a weird experience working with supervisors in India and the lack of communication but I never intended on staying. I bit the bullet, got my experience and left.
Good for you. I've gained 10 pounds since high school graduation in 1976.
Sorry, I work 15 hours a day 5 days a week and 5 hours the other 2, when I come here I dont proof.

Why would they give you a choice of 16 or 24 hours. Usually part time is anything under 37 hours.
That is extremely odd. Well they must have something up their sleeves. Well I will be working elsewhere part time as well as with MQ as I have no intention of sitting 40 hours with no work from Amherst and be expected to have 150 lph with no work. What is all this window of work time they said they would be giving everyone. I figured all along they would do away with SE. I have already been looking around and ordered a new computer to send theirs back.
Any companies that allow line count rather than hours or less than 20 hours per week? (sm)
Wouldn't mind having something extra especially with Christmas and general winter expenses coming up but working a FT job and really don't want to do another 20 hours on top of that.
the day has 24 hours, I work only 6-8 hours, so, lots of time to post...nm
nm
Must we choose either 8, 16 or 24 hours. Why would they want someone only working 8 hours a week.
That is less than SE are required now.
MDI-FL. Approximately 7 hours a month x12 months =84 hours
And your PTO acrues from day 1. You are just unable to utilize it until after 90 days. They have excellent benefits.
You can have insurance at 30 hours with Encompass, 32 hours with eTransPlus. nm
10-15 an hour for 8 hours is better than nothing for 8 hours when there is no work.

Do they pay extra for OT?
As if I needed any more incentive to apply to this company.
MQ--extra 2 cents
some offices offer extra money for typing after 3pm, after 10pm, week ends, and holidays, and some offices offer this without asking for it
Going the extra mile? sm
IMHO "going the extra mile" means working your BUTT off when your company has a backlog. Decent companies pay a bonus for doing that anyway. Then coast when work is low. If you fall into this cut throat mentality, you're not only hurting yourself but all MTs. It is possible for companies to balance their needs with the needs of MTs and I, for one, refuse to work for one who can't (or won't) do this.
Always work, usually all the extra you want too.
No special platform. Some accounts you can work in WP5.1 or Word, some just Word. Work is batched so no saving every report. The only demographics you have to enter is patient's name, all other automated. Daily QA feedback and QA is good overall. Use BOS generally, but not strictly - client dictates.
Direct deposit and pay is ALWAYS on time, even early on holidays usually. No charge for direct deposit.
If you are local can use C-phone, otherwise work is downloaded via FTP. They provide foot pedal/software but not computer.
IC positions only - but don't know rate. I've been with them since the beginning and am an employee. They pay based on gross line though, use Sylcount for line counts and no screwing around with your lines.
They aren't perfect, but most employees have been there since the beginning, little turnover. They leave you alone for the most part, no IM, no nasty e-mails, aren't calling every day for you to work extra, occasionally offer a bonus. Schedules are Sunday-Thursday or Tues-Sat, not clocking in.
do any of you do something extra on the side
My hands kill me just about every day now, and looking at my hands i have muscle breakdown and twitching, so i'd like to cut down on typing. Want to find something to do on the side to earn maybe 1000 to 1500 dollars a month. Was thinking about ebay, but i'm doubtful I could make that much, even though they hype up the advertisement by saying you could make 3000 MINIMUM. I'm just desperate and feel like my hands are about to fall off. I've spent close to 1000$ this year alone in keyboards, gloves, splints, doc visits, meds, changed my station around, hot soaks, cold soaks, exercises, stretches, vitamins. still my hands just sing every day esp at night. So any extra money earning ideas you guys? thanks
MDI is asking for MTs to do extra work
Honestly, I do not know where you are getting your info from. MDI is really busy, so that leads me to believe you do not work for us. If you want more work, please call me at the office (or you should have asked your TL). I sent out a mass e-mail Wednesday night asking for help, help and more help.
Hope you are making honest posts. If you are, then I really would like you to call me either at home or at the office. My home number is listed in TT (although most of my MT's have it already).
Thanks,
Liz
Extra Work!
Does anyone know of any MTSOs that use MTs p.r.n. or on our own time?
extra work
I'd be happy to share, just E-mail me. Am not that familiar what I can or cannot put on reply message
But can you work extra
hours if you need them in order to reach your line requirement?
can you do extra if work is available - nm
nm
would you happen to need someone to take the extra
I'd like to get some prn work, or even a bit extra each day, especially on the weekends. If your account would allow it, and depending on the manner in which the files would need to be played, etc, I'd be happy to help. Let me know if you'd like my email addy.
-sede-
Thank you..but no it only spaces an extra...
line between sentences. Instead of each line one under the other it actually adds an extra line space to double it but thank you anyway. I appreciate the help.
That is the BASE ... you get EXTRA for
shift differential, weekend differential, QA percentage differential, and line differential - FOUR on top of the base rate. If you don't work for TT you have no business chirping in. You get paid for holidays whether you are scheduled or not. You rotate Thanksgiving and Christmas, never both in one year. I have been around the MTSO block. Transtech is the BEST. Period.
Extra work at KS?
Do you have the opportunity to work extra at KS? If you do, do you get paid OT for it?
Extra job security, anybody do this?
I recently took on another job, this one part-time. I had been working for several months for a company that was constantly running out of work. This way I can always be sure there will be work in one place or other. I think in these economic times we have to protect ourselves. Anybody else do this? How does it work for you?
Yes, I just wanted a little extra job to help ...sm
because the work has been really slow the last couple of months where I am. But I don't hear anything. Most don't reply at all.
Has any company said thank you to those who have picked up the extra
work for those who are "out of service" from the hurricane? I have worked my fingers to the bone to keep a few accounts happy, no thanks, no overtime, no bonus. Guess I am the dummy here.
It means it does not pay extra for paragraphing,
underlining, bolding, new lines, etc., or any of the unseen characters or Keystrokes required to make a certain function, i.e., if you bold the word bold, it is 4 characters + 1 character after the word for the white space, but nothing for the control+B to make the word bolded, nor no keystroke for the space bar, as that is a white space.
This is a lot. When I worked for Transcend, I got a whole 0.025 extra for CMT. nm

There's no extra for that. It's just part of the job more and more lately. And the worst of th
s
I should have said old hires used to get double; now all will get extra 4 cpl;
nm
they dont want extra, they wont take it.

Ask for extra work, they are probably willing to give it if it's there. nm
nm
You certainly deserve the extra for working 3rd. sm
I could never do it!!
Should get extra for 3rd shift 99% ESLs!...nm
Do you have the option of paying extra...
for fedex or UPS delivery? What's it like to QA there? I definitely could not afford to wait a week for my paycheck.
I wonder if this is the new pay plan coming out. How do you get the extra 2 cents. What do you have
to do for that.
Dental and vision are separate and extra. sm
I don't know how much, though, because I tossed the info on it as the provider list for the dental was SO LIMITED it wasn't even worth it, I couldn't get any dentist I wanted.
one of my companies gives an extra 8,000 per quarter for bonus
