But I dont' do that consistently, wish I did ! --normally do about 800 a day - sm
but Sundays I usually hit between 1000-1500 as I save my weekend work for that day and do it all at once. Fun.
Tom's wives have been consistently
10 years younger than the previous. Looks like he'll be scoping out the Middle Schools soon. LOL.
If you have a MT who is consistently making
the same mistakes after being given copies, corrections, etc., then it is time to refer all of this to her supervisor.
Well, at least it will consistently come close!
If an MT is so concerned that she is being cheated out of money, she needs to be proactive and figure out how to verify line counts. I either use Word or an old version of MPCount that I downloaded off the Internet for free. It was my experience that nearly every company I ever worked for was right on or even paid a bit more than my line counts indicated. (Except for ONE company and we all know which one that is!)
12,000 lines per week for me - consistently. nm

Probably because I'm an MT and I don't like to see consistently misspelled words.
Perhaps they don't bother you. I pity your employers.
What agency can help me with a co. who consistently underpays me....sm
then says they will have to make it up on the next paycheck. This has gone on for over a year now, with so few checks correct that it just boggles my mind. I just want to know who I can contact to make this company pay me correctly. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance
So you consistently do 520 lines an hour??

I have consistently made in the upper $40s to mid $50s in this business.
I have not been chained to the computer. I have even worked just 3 days a week to make that. Long days, mind you, but still only 3 days a week.

I have a talent and great aptitude for this work. I also am fiercely protective of my work time/environment. I work very hard while I'm working. Thus, I do not have to work more than 40 hours a week.

Sit in disbelief all you want. Just remember, you are the one not making the money while many of us are.

Don't understand what that question means. I consistently
make between $20 and $25 an hour, don't have to type 500 lines an hour to make that, it is all in what her cpl is.
The blame needs to be placed with the company who allows MTs doing consistently shoddy work to

Only a person who consistently leaves blanks because they are lazy should be docked.
Or maybe they should just be fired. The first place I ever worked docked us for errors that we should not have made. I was only docked a couple of times, and it was only a small amount, but it made me pay attention and be more careful, and I think it made be a better MT.
An addendum, minor corrections are one thing - being a slob dictator who consistently cannot put his

Have a hospital I work for and they consistently change work types and do line counts. (sm)
Management just doesn't understand in order to crank out the work you need to be proficient by typing the same accounts. Go figure, they just don't get it ??
