Chill. Maybe there are no developments that need to be discussed. nm

" there are no developments" wouldn't warrant discussion or am I

I'm sure it's NOT for "no reason at all" but
it might be for a reason you haven't discovered yet. Some of the reasons why IC's are let go are consistently not getting the TAT met (I have a gal that always says she wants more work, yet one of the accounts will have work in the queue for 2 days and she still hasn't got to it), consistently poor quality of work, not jumping in to cover work when workload is heavy and being replaced by someone who does the work at a cheaper rate. So it may SEEM like no reason at all but there is a reason. Still, one would hope one's shortcomings could be brought up so that there was a chance to modify what was churning out...
That's "know nothing", not "no nothing".
Sort of in a hurry there.
In a word....."NO!"
You say "No one would have told you to purchase that." sm.
Did it ever occur to you that maybe the person at Keystrokes DID tell her that and that they DID make a mistake.
"no big deal." this MUST be a recruiter's
,
sorry, ICer, post was for "no name"
my bad
I have 25 years exp and run into the "no work syndrome" also.
It happens! I got tired of hearing no work or can you go on later...etc. I went out and got my own accounts and it has be heaven!
Believe me, the no work situation happens at every company no matter what anyone says. I think I have tried every one out there and the same thing....great for the first few weeks, then caught up and no work.
You may need a part-time job to fill in for the $$$ missed.
Good luck.
Owner has stated emphatically "no"!

Who are you to say someone has "no life" because he or she chooses to work sm
a day on the weekend? That seems a bit egocentric, the world revolving around you and what you think. I work Sunday through Thursday and am quite happy with it. And no, I don't choose between work and God. I work 2nd shift, and I have always gone to early church anyway just as a personal preference.
Unfortunately, people still get sick on the weekends, and if someone in your family gets sick on the weekend, you'll be darned glad someone is working. If you are so against working weekends, perhaps you should try clinic work. Just a suggestion.
Please go back and read "No, you're way off..."
and then read my reply to No. This was not a response to your post, so please simmer down. I was saying regardless of what the man-owners of the company are, we were just sweat shop labor and they never communicated with us anyway.
That should read "no workers comp needed" sorry
nm
I'm just curious how long that lasts for you? Usually if I get a "no studies" message, sm
I have work again within the hour. I don't get how so many of y'all are out of work all the time.
so does this mean OSI can still be discussed in
x
This has probably been discussed before....sm
But could someone tell me what is a low/high rate of pay when getting paid by the minute? Never worked this way but it could be a more fair way to pay??? Not sure. Comments appreciated. TIA
this also has been discussed in the very
recent past with more than a handfull stating they do that range regularly.
That has already been discussed. nm
Already discussed below. nm

The only way this has been discussed --sm
to death is by a whole group of sourpusses jumping on her for even asking the question in the first place and telling her in no uncertain terms to do her own research, that she was not *entitled* to ask the question in the first place because she was wanting everybody else to do the work for her. There were a few *nice* responders who did give her some valid suggestions, but most of you all just tore her a *new one* for no reason whatsoever, other than you could, and that's it. Now THAT is rude! Her original question was not truly *discussed* at all, but ridiculed with rude responses, and nothing more. So don't try to make yourselves out as justified in your responses, because you are not. schoolyard bullies, all of you.
MQ is not to be discussed on this board. (SM)
There is a board for MQ posts and ALL MQ discussions belong there.
If you want to talk about DQS, which many companies use, refrain from bringing MQ into your post -- it invites MQ discussion and MQ discussion is restricted to the MQ board.

This has been discussed many times over the last
few weeks. Do a search of this site and you will find many posts. You can scroll down or go to the second page and probably even the third page at the bottom and find posts from people who work there. I know I am very happy. They are a very nice company with excellent benefits.

Please read and be familiar with posting guidelines at the top of the Company board.
Next time, e-mail myself or the Administrator about why your post is deleted.
Thank you,

just discussed further down this same page

I would think you would know, pay should never be discussed with anyone - not very professional.

we had discussed the situation
We had had a discussion about my mom before the warnings and my supervisor had made the statement that I would not be terminated but that I could possibly be placed back on part-time. Afterwards the warnings came and I requested a leave with no response. I wasn't taking it lightly. I knew my performance was very poor; I just didn't know what to do about it. Actually I wasn't upset they terminated me it was kind of a relief but the deposit on my equipment hey had no legitimate reason for keeping any part of it.
Don't know if this has been discussed, but...smCindiRI
Has anyone used Transcription Matchmaker, which is heavily advertised, especially on MTDaily, and is reportedly a matchmaker headhunter/recruitment which promises to match up an MT with a company that matches their skill level, their specific interests, their work needs, etc., with just the right company. There are just so many companies out there, so many conflicting reports from folk who have worked for these companies and supposedly know the inside details, and as a heavily seasoned  MT who has had her share of OOOPs and blunders, I thought this might be good resource???? Thanks so much in advance! 
Does PC-Shorthand discussed here used by KS (sm)
is that word processing only - or does it include medical words too? If it does not, what do you use for medical words? (I don't work for KS but am thinking of using this software since everyone seems to like it.) Thanks!
This is discussed often. Try the archives?

This has been discussed lots in the last
few days. Use the Google search box.
Discussed earlier - DO NOT DO IT
As per the discussion over the last week, testing with them is most likely a terrible, terrible idea.
They're asking applicants to test with 10 LIVE files, which means all they're really doing is getting their backlog done for free.
Think about it - 30 applicants? 10 live files each? That's 300 files right there - no more backlog and no money spent. Yowza.
They were discussed the last week or so, nothing
nice to say about them. They stopped direct deposit and you have to pay to have it overnighted or wait for snail mail. Used to be a good company years ago, just gone downhill like most of the others.
Go thru the last 4 pages here. They have been discussed recently. nm

This was just discussed in detail a few weeks ago

that would be best discussed with a recruiter, don't want to give sm
you the wrong information as I am not 100% sure on how that accrues. I do know we have 6 paid holidays a year.
I discussed this with an IRS agent recently
IC means you basically have more flexibility. I.E. you set your own schedule. The most the company can REQUEST is a window of time, i.e Turnaround time or say a 12 hour window to complete X lines or X reports. If you get X reports done in 4 hours, they cannot require you to stay on if you choose not to. You don't ask them for vacation time, you let them know when you will not be available period. ICs pay for that flexibility through paying their own taxes etc.
Employee - You are required to work a certain amount of set hours on a set schedule no matter who chooses the exact time even if you meet your line quota early. You ask for time off and have to be approved for it, and you are required to be in contact during your shift through media that they usually choose.
It is a fine line in some ways, but if you are classified as an IC, you should be under contract for an amount of work, i.e. assigned doctors, lines, reports or whatever within TAT or the window of 5 to 5 (just an example). If you are contracted for 8-5 Monday through Friday and are to keep in touch via Yahoo during your shift (which you must complete), you are an employee.
Ascend is not the company being discussed

They are discussed almost daily. If you'll look through
past posts you'll get lots of info. They are in India with a storefront office in the US.
They have been discussed a lot lately. Look through old posts and archives.
I thought this was already discussed ad nauseum below. sm
Why not just let it die? We all know cherry picking is out there. How we deal with it I suppose is a personal choice. For me, I have learned not to complain about it as it usually does no good anyway. Life is too short to get all upset over things we cannot change. JMO
This company has been discussed many times here.
Try doing a search and checking the archives as there is a lot of information there, but none of its sounds very good.
I discussed an hourly QA wage with them sm
a few years ago and when they sent the paperwork, they had substituted a RATE PER LINE for QA. I called and told them they had made a mistake, they said that they had decided they would only pay by line. I think they figured I wouldn't read the paperwork and just sign it.
I don't hesitate to ask. Have been told "yes", and have been told "no." Never been to
:+
Do a search as it was discussed recently. There might be 3 places that do this. nm

They have been discussed within the past week, scroll down and
see if you can see the post. S/B lots more posts in archives. Nothing good.
I was just told that all the schedule changes have been completed or at least being discussed. You
contact Lee directly. They must not have received your email. Don't wait because new people are being hired and if they didn't get your email, you will be overlooked.
Beware the Mandatory Overtime with them! Was discussed
