i have steady work, on wav accts
Posted By: sm on 2008-07-31
In Reply to: I've got work available at almost all times of the day, - My thoughts...
with occasional lull's. i could work on secondaries, but usually do something around the house that begs my attention. All i can suggest is being able to be somewhat flexible with your hours, and/or talking to liaison about backup accts. as a last resort, a second company part-time i suppose. but in my opinion, MDI-MD is worth sticking with.

Is the work steady?
Do you work for them?
If you want steady work...
Do not go to Amphion...Constant low work and they switch from account to account to account until there is no work on any account. Not Amphion!!
Does MDI-Fl have steady work? Are there benefits

at least they have steady flow of work -

I'd like to know too as we can seem to keep steady work, yet we are always trying to hire more.
If someone knows why they keep hiring more people, let us know. All I can think of is that the MTs they have keep quitting due to the lack of work, it's a vicious cycle. Somedays, they holler for help, you get in there and work hard, and then the next thing you know, we're out of work. I say STOP HIRING and let the MTs you have who want and need the work to do just that. I'm so sick of the feast or famine concept there. I'm job hunting. This stinks. They obviously advertise because they cant keep good help. That's my guess!!!
Good pay, steady work?
I was considering applying but don't want to jeopardize my current job.
None for me either, no steady work for weeks..nm

Been at my job since March and work is steady
I work for a small U.S. company who does not offshore (and shall remain nameless, by me anyway). You have a primary account and a backup account. They do not over-hire so the work is mostly steady. I am told that it only runs low around the holidays. I'm pretty happy with that. At least you know the lull is coming and can prepare for it financially. My days at sitting at the computer waiting for work are over, for now anyway.
Steady work? Fairness in doling out the work?
Am so tired of crap work because I can do it, am getting burned out because of just that, crap work all the time. One of the reasons I am looking at other companies.
I work for a small national. I have steady work, usually
extra if I want it. I make 10 cpl as an employee, get vacation, 401K matching, PTO, wonderful QA, lots of ESL dictators but mostly decent ones, direct deposit, no IM, no nasty e-mails, no phone calls asking me to work extra day after day. Saying that MTs are surprised at how much money they make because they have steady work even though the line rate is low sounds like a line a used car salesman would use. A low line rate is a low line and an insult, especially since without the MTs you wouldn't be able to pay your bills.
Just because everyone else sees to be going to India is like the saying you parents would say if everyone else jumped off the bridge .... Many companies sell out, but you don't HAVE to sell out. You choose to get more bang from your buck but I've seen the work that comes back from overseas and I would never put my name to it.
You might can fool some of the people some of the time, but it won't fly with me.
The starting is $1.08 but the work is steady and plentiful. I think the top is $1.25 but I am not s
that is just the highest that I know of someone making.
oops.. I meant that we CANT seem to have steady work EVER. nm

Many old YOGgers at FutureNet, but the work isn't steady. sm
When I was at MQ, they lost many YOG accounts, but I haven't been there in a couple of years, so I can't really speak to that.
Agree with you. If poster has steady work, that's

Needing steady work as well....email inside
Thanks! nwmt68@hotmail.com
True but I got news for ya - you aren't going to get steady work anywhere that way.-
An MTSO has an account to cover. Period. She will give the work to whomever is willing to be flexible enough to cover the account. Even an IC has to work within some framework, not just whenever I feel like it, right?
As far as I know, IC only. Very steady work flow. Pay is good and on time.
 Great lady to work for.
EMTS Great company steady work
Getting new work and accounts are sending more and more work. Great people to work with.
enjoy it there. good accounts. steady work.

Pay on time and accurate, work flow steady.

I've been trying to find a company with steady work

I've had steady work the past 2 days on
my primary account, but I'm pretty sure it only has to do with people being off. I don't think there has been any kind of major change for the greater good or anything. So I'm not getting excited. I'll be back at the soup kitchen probably next week - so someone save my seat!
Downside is that there's rarely a steady/even load of work everyday unless there's always a ba

Guess we all can't be put on good accts. Gotta be there at the right time. Both of my accts.

No Work Either and I am on one of the new accts

you have to go through w/any company if you work VA accts..nm
z
One of my secondary accts has very little work , but they..sm
stat every blessed report they do, so I always get those immediately. It is TAT, but your STM can explain it in more detail.
the new accts were supposed to already be on board and still no work
x
so far plenty and swamped with work but that is due to new accts and not enough MTs yet so not sure
;
You don't know what accts I work on so how can you judge whether or not they are excellent? nm
.
Dedicated accts, few ESL, leave you alone to work.
x
Companies with new accts or sufficient work?
When I left my last job, the work load was on the wane and recent posts seem to indicate this has not changed much. Any good news out there in this regard?
I work 2 accts, always work available, pay as IC is good..
They offered me more than Transcend did, I work 2nd shift, work always availble, OT usually available. Staff is very responsive to questions, very helpful.
Someone else asking if you still need a Cphone & 2nd line to work for them. Any internet accts? nm
s
2 of the accts running OT in my group of work ARE EXCELLENT sm
Excellent accounts, low ESL, good work. NOT OVERHIRED. GO AWAY.
3 of my accts were in OT all weekend with 0 jobs. Very little work actually available. Check Comm pa

? That's kind of a blanket statement; things are fine on the accts I work on. sm
Yes, it was slow a couple weeks ago but started picking up last week.
PS - Yes, they pay for spaces.
U.S. only, very steady work, some VR, good pay, good insurance, no PT, schedule. sm
That should cover it!
Can you say where you work if you get assigned docs/accts.? I'm tired of this pool garbage/left
s
Was there a short time last year. You work as an employee, not IC. Different software/diff. accts.

How are the MW accts that use the ExText? Good sound? Lots of work? Acute care or clinic? Thx. nm
s
? No work? What accts do you work on? sm
I'm on the Enterprise side - are you on ChartMatrix? Because there's lots to do every time I check.

I know that is the case in most placed, but not everywhere. I am very thankful that I have a job where I make good money and am treated well. This was not always the case. I used to be with MQ--indentured servitude. To those who are discouraged, I say, don't ever, ever give up. Keep looking. You will find your bashert, your right kind of a job.

Perhaps not pie on the sky at all. It is a fabulous idea. How can we make it happen?

Believe it or not, I interviewed a local funeral director yesterday, as that is a career I am interested in pursuing. One has to go to mortuary college (there are several through the US) and I know anatomy, physiology and was really good at chemistry. I am not squeamish about dead bodies. Funeral directors make a very good wage, even if you do not own your own mortuary. I do not want to get into the business side of it, would rather just be a staff funeral director for an established mortuary. Just another thought for those people considering a change. For those of us who have to work several more years, I don't think MTing is going to last. Or maybe I won't last. Anyway, just a suggestion, along with the post about dental hygiene. And yep, steady eddie, I agree, this whole thing has gone down the spit sink! You nailed it.

TEXTING? Does that mean that I can do my work on my BlackBerry now? And we need to keep on breaking those paper chains. My old grandmother used to have a saying: YOU DESERVE THE KIND OF TREATMENT YOU WILL ACCEPT. I would tell anyone who made me such an offer to, well......
Oh great, just what I want to get rid of. I am looking for a steady workload. nm
