then you would have earned $176 for the day. I would rather not lose the income just so MDI can get more lpd and pay less for my day so they can pad their pockets like they have been, but hey, that is just me. BTW, I have done eScription before and know I will not be tripling my production versus the current system.

I said that I do 1600+ per day. Most days, I am over 2500-3000 lines per day. 1600 is the personal
I do not work overtime except very, very occasionally. I use my Expanders and know my account inside out. It IS possible no matter how many people try to say that it is not. I rarely post here because I see people chopped to pieces when they say they make good money, no matter who they work for. It is as though only the negative voices are heard here.
1600 lines is too much
Unless you have all good dictators, never have to stop to look up anything, and happen to type at warp speed. Those people who type at warp speed make lots of typos, although you would have a hard time convincing them of that.
1600 lines of transcription

They want 1600 lpd and have had some negative posts here before. nm

Is that 1600 lines a day in editing or transcription?
nm
Post from a year ago said 8 cpl with 8.75 cpl for 1600+ lines

so, you are saying if a person is not typing 1600 lines, KS is coming down on them???

Don't twist my words. I said that I type 1600+ lines per day. sm
I do. My personal requirement for myself is 1600 lines, 1400 lines if I am not feeling well or have kids home without a babysitter. MOST days I type in the 2500-3000 line range. There are days I do more than that, but not many. I do not work overtime very often; I have 5 kids and it is impossible for me to do so. Don't read more into this than there is.
Older posts said they still use a DOS-based software and have a 1600 lpd requirement. nm

Made 1200-1600 per week paid on a gross line for 5 years!
It CAN be done. The key is either a really high line rate or canned text over and over again with very small accounts. I had a little of both and then some harder stuff thrown in. It also helps if you work like you are on fire most of the day. Needless to say, that gravy train ran out of juice and now I am back to *normal* pay of around $750 per week at another company. SO many variables out there with the *how much do you make?* question.
I took that to mean you can get to that rate after 1600 lines and that is not the starting rate.
:
It's not 1600 lines -- it's 16,000 lines...and
I've got my contract right here and have already gotten 2 checks and YES, I am getting 9.5 cpl base rate.
I don't know what other people are getting. Don't really care. I work for MY paycheck. Gosh.
