I think I would just get the line counts figured and merely mail it in now, albeit late, you should get it eventually one would think. Just include - please notify me when the compensation can be expected, so you know what is going on, or not going on. 

 If not, and since they benefited from the lines, and can be verified you actually did indeed do the work, merely contact the labor department..

your post, but if it was supposed to mean that we "could" have the option of transcribing and/or using VR, perhaps at this very minute in time you do, but that won't last much longer.

From the wording of your post, I'm having trouble believing you're a living, breathing human being.  Are you instead a VR program looking for a home?  If so, maybe you'd better fine-tune your voice-recognition ability to correct that "good" versus "could" voice conflict you've got going on.  If you are a human being attempting to convey a thought about "bad" MTs, take a good, long look at your own post and tell me where they should begin the "weeding-out" process. 

I personally think they should start with MTs who type sentences such as, "I was under the impression that we good straight type, do VR or both!"

I am still having trouble with the ExText software.  I know TT is doing their best to get everything smoothed out...but I am concerned because it really slows me down and is very frustrating...I just get all geared up and ready to have at it...but the software gives me nothing but problems.  It cuts me off after I complete a report and then I have to sign back on to get dictation.  Sometimes the system does not recognize my foot pedal, and I have to crawl under my desk undo the USB connection and reconnect, then it will work.  All in all this is very frustrating.  Also I find some of the doctors are difficult to understand...I think they are speaking too close or too far away from their microphone, etc.  I know my line counts thus far are not good at all.  I like the company...they are all very, very nice to work with, especially QA.  I have been on the account about 3 weeks now...I sure hope it improves soon.

Thanks for your input.

The dictaphone we use at the hospital occasionally does that but not very often.  I have had no problems whatsoever (knock on wood) with Merit running in my 384 RAM machine. 

If I were in your shoes, I would take a shot at the Merit side before I jumped ship.  I think the reason why I don't like Merit as well is because i have not had as much experience with it.

getting my direct deposit going, but on time every time since.  I started 6 months ago.  I checked BBB and found them to have a BB rating, which is a good rating according to the BBB themselves. 

I hate being paid late myself, it is really frustratign and has happened to me far times than I can remember, but I am sure they will work things out with you. 

I work days so I am wondering if the system is just plain bogged down.  

Thank heavens, most of us TT'rs are very happy there.

I worked for Chase for about 9 months. Let's just say STAY AWAY. VERY AWAY. It was not a good experience. I am still looking for work.

When you work for them it's like you are on your own.  You can't get a reply on anything. I am in editing and I find tons of errors sent previously and reports sent to the wrong area and I let them know and I never get a reply.  I never get emails.  Updates are done in mind only....they don't actually put them on paper and you never know the change unless you send feedback and the manager notices it has changed.  I wrote the HR person over a year ago asking a question and I am still waiting.

Another big gripe is their supposed mentor.  This lady has issues.  She calls people and asks them what church they go to, what political affiliation they are, and then proceeds to go on and on about how smart she is, what degrees she has, and who she works for.  Two of my coworkers have left because of her.

I'd would tell anybody unless you are totally sharp and can work on your own without ever a question, don't look here.  Also don't answer the phone if the mentor calls unless you really want to know what soap opera she watched that day.  If she would mentor and leave everybody else alone, something might get done.

I found that my 401K with Spheris is in jeopardy.  The company Circle Trust is being investigated by the SEC and two of the phone lines are diconnected and the others box is full so you cannot even find out if you are going to get your money.

Anyone know where to contact

Transcription At Its Best, and just wondering if anyone here knows anything about them.  I tried searching the archives, but I think their name precludes the ability to narrow down the search enough.  Any information at all would be much appreciated.

TIA!  and happy Friday everyone!!!
