In Reply to: Proscript - Needing a change
Platform is very similar to Word. If you have high speed internet you could probably get 1200 lines done in 4 hours or so (I guess that depends on how fast you type, though). I don't have high speed, but software tells me my typing time and it is usually between 3-1/2 and 4 hours for me to get 1000-1200 lines done.

Anybody working for ProScript? Could you give your opinion. Thanks.
I love working outside, though the sun is an
issue. You just need some shade, from a tree, awning, or umbrella. I need sun, but sometimes find the day is gone and I haven't been outside, so the laptop allows me to do both. Also, when I work weekends and it is nice out, I can be outside with my family, even though I have to work. I don't think being outside will help at all with working 2 hours before breaking.
Don't you love it! It's like working in an
office but not working in an office! I get cheescake for my birthday.
I love getting up and working at that time.
It was the only time that I could actually concentrate and have quiet time in my house. I have a 3-year-old son and grandkids that lived with me a couple of months ago...it was hard to try to work while everyone was doing their daily thing. So, I just started getting up and 4 a.m. was a good time. I would stop around 8 and get my mom/son's breakfast ready and get them situated. After that I could go back to work until I was through, taking breaks in between. I prefer the 4 a.m. thing...it works for me. You will have to find what works for you and I am sure that you will.
I love Iscriptor! I have been working
with it now for 6 months. I have not had problems with it being slow. It is very easy to learn and work with. It is easy to navigate and very user friendly. What company did you accept a position with? If it is the company I work for, I may be able to answer other questions.
That's why I love working from home. Too funny. sm
I helped my son out with his paper route the other morning because he was sick with a temp of 102. I'm walkng around, almost done with the papers, heading home, birds are singing, sun is starting to shine and then, ALL OF A SUDDEN, VAROOOOOOOM!!! About 4 cars go whizzing by, almost running me over, oblivious to their surroundings, obviously late for work again. Checked my watch and it was 5:45 a.m. 6 o'clock shift running late again. Can't get their Dunkin Donuts and make it to work on time unless they drive like a bat out of h...l.
I just laughed and laughed and thought, "Well geeeee, it stinks to be you doesn't it? Now why don't you take time out to fill up with GASOLINE!" HEE HEE!
I don't know why people are in such a hurry lately. Why don't they just set their alarms 15 minutes earlier for Pete's sake? I was taking my older son to work one morning and was at a red light at a very busy, accident prone, intersection. The light turned green. I always take a quick look left and right before going through the green light and I didn't even have time to glance to the left before the "A" behind me laid on his horn. Of course then I got funny and drove like a granny, just to make him mad. He ended up finding space to pass on the right and he gave me the finger.
Best - I love the freedom of working the hours I want -sm
--as long as the work is in my deadline my "employer" does not care when I work- WORST is when I procrastinate and then either have to work like a nut to get done, or stay up to ungodly hours to get the work done, or work all day instead of doing whatever project or thing I wanted to get done that day. ---I can deal with the taxes, yes its a pain, but my lack of schedule is well worth it to me.
I've been working just under a year and am on ER.. LOVE it!

Personally, I love working at home, but my
kids were already in school when I started 10+ years ago. I worked part-time at home in the evening when they were small, but my ex was there to help with them then. I would think it would be very distracting to work a full day with small ones, unless you were working an p.m. shift when they were asleep, but then there is no time for hubby. But then again, there are many who do.
YES!! Love 'em! Lots of fun, doesn't feel like working out. :)
the ergo beans wrist support is AWESOME!!! its like a massage while working...LOVE it and only 16 b

Proscript
Proscript is a great company to work for!
Try www.proscript.com....sm
Best company around to work for
proscript
Just started with proscript and am still on QA but love it - they are fair and all parties are wonderful to deal with.
ProScript
Never heard of this company.
Where is it?
When you are happy with a company for so many years and things all of a sudden start getting bad it is time to look elsewhere.
Proscript
Anyone heard of Proscript or currently work for them. Any input appreciated!
ProScript
I work for them, and I LOVE this company - they are GREAT! You won't be sorry if you accept a position with them. 
Proscript
Can anyone out there tell me how user friendly Proscript's platform is and if it is easy to attain your desired line count. Any information appreciated. Thanks!
Proscript Pay
Hi, my name is Laura also - I posted the first message, but not the second. I was always told NOT to share my line rate info - therefore, would have said check with the recruiter. Obviously, another Laura is giving out incorrect information.

Great company - great people!

My husband and I are both MTs. He got into ProScript on the last hiring boom which was at the end of last year. I'm in line waiting to get in with them when they have more work.
So far my husband is very happy with them. He is an employee (with benefits after 90 days, for which he just became eligible), and he can work whatever schedule he wants (M-F, T-S, etc.), as long as he maintains a full-time line count.

I worked for Proscript for 3 years, but was laid off due to not enough work. I am waiting to be called back as it has been close to three months now...I am hoping work picks up soon!!! I would hope that they call back the people they laid off before they hire new employees.

Nice travel alarm, plus looks like there are drawings this week for other stuff. Co gives out $50 prize monthly in a game as part of continuing ed.
Try ProScript...been with them for almost 2 years...sm
and have never run out of work - even during holidays. Great company to work for.
Feedback on Proscript?
Hi, again, O mighty MTs!
I don't know where I found it, but somewhere I ran across a company called ProScript out of Florida. Does anybody know anything about them, good or bad? Enquiring minds want to know...
ProScript lin rate
I suggest you contact the recruiter as the line rate mentioned here is not correct. It's always better to call a recruiter because that is where you will get the most updated information. Email employment@proscript.com.
ProScript Outsourcing
ProScript does outsource to India !. Please see my post under ProScript "company board".
Proscript sent out gift cards (sm)
for dinner when we caught up a new account. Our transcription director is always writing encouraging and informative memos, though I do miss Rick's unique input.
Thank you, ProScript, for useful MT week gift (sm)
desk clock/calendar/calculator thingie, with alarm and timer.
Too bad it doesn't have a 3-minute timer button (for those who get distracted online, to limit their search time) instead of the button for the time in Karachi. (Look it up -- I'm so confident this service will never offshore, I can laugh about it.)
ProScript Documentation Services does not send work overseas or employ any overseas MTs. (nm)
You get more working the evening or night shifts and working w/o benefits. And producing like a mad

love, love, love the show. hate american idol. this show is for real.
the only reason i entertained watching it was because of mark burnett and as usual he has such genious casting and editing. btw, don't know who anything about "metal" music but these performers make me like it. love marty and jd as performers. HATE JESSICA. susie is so nice and so emotional. it seems they all support each other and enjoy each others skills. regarding ty and bob marley, ty was excellent but he also lucked out on the song! bob marley was genious too and his music is very easy to listen to. i don't like 3/4 of what the others are given to sing but their performances make me love the music. dave navarro shines on this show, very gracious for the most part and letting the contestants down easy when they have to leave. he was great last night with brandon (?). sweet, sweet show. i am so impressed with everyone involved.
Yep that's it, 4000. Love, love love the zoom
But I feel like a dork typing...every time I try to type But it is coming out as Nut!
Ditto....granted I am not working much these days, but am currently trying out a new way of working
when I do work which seems to be helping. I am timing myself and keeping a log of how long it takes to to type however many minutes. I am averaging anywhere from 13-18 minutes of dictation an hour now doing this. Granted the time fluctuates between who I am typing, and if I have to look up names, addresses, etc., just depends on the division I am doing at the time. But work that used to take me 3 hours to do is now taking me under 2 hours, I am also trying to put in more macros as I go along, which slows me down initially but pays off in the long run of course. I was working "all the time" before but took forever to get done since I was not applying myself. This new "attitude" has helped me a lot. My goal, in the Fall, is to do 90 minutes a day consistently at 6 hours, and then maybe get up to 120 minutes a day at 8 hours, still while having at least half of the day free (do 60 minutes at night, and the other 60 by Noon). Thereby doing 1200-1400 lines a day. I have never really buckled down and done more than 8000 lines per pay period, so it will be a nice change. Maybe you can do something like that and have a specific knock off time as was suggested below. 
Working holidays? Out shopping in stores where someone IS working
that holiday you refuse to work? Grocery stores, food joints & seems any store is open on holidays and you expect them to be fully staffed, so why shouldn't we?
Yes, I took off for the first time on Christmas day, in 18 years and it was great, but I worked Christmas eve and this whole past weekend.
Someone has to do it!
working IN A HOSPITAL is different than working at home.
Someone can steal you identity from the internet if they want to. Why would you go to the time and trouble to jeopardize a job that requires some level of skill to steal someone's identity or medical records? You could get a job as a retail clerk and get info easier than going through the testing required to become an MT.
Somehow working at home translates into not really working
My in-laws are the worst. Whenever they plan something last minute and my husband says that I had to work, they say, "but she works at home!". When I one time mentioned I had a "schedule" and basically punch a clock and work full time, I don't think they believed me. They will sometimes call mid-day during the week if they are in the area to see if I want to go for lunch, etc! The best is, my husband doesn't make all that much money, so where is it coming from, the money fairy? I am ready to strangle someone! So I know how you feel and I'm sorry it upset you. You are not alone.
I love it too - love doing my nails 5 hours a day and staying awake
Love NOT getting paid while sitting doing my nails too. It's a real turn on.
I tell all my friends to try it -- sit in front of your computer while you have no money to pay your rent and instead do your nails, you get a real buzz down in the pit of your stomach.
Also LOVE LOVE ESCRIPTION and make good money but...
Can I ask how you sit there for 8 hours. Lately, I'm having a motivation problem. When I focus, I can rack up the lines, but lately, I get so easily distracted. My mind wanders and I struggle to get my lines. Any tips on how you stay productive who do you work for?? I work for Transcend.
People either love it or hate it. I personally love it
but I know a lot of people say you cannot make any money on it and will not work on it. I do okay. I'm obviously not getting rich but I am making a living. I found it easier than Dictaphone and faster such in downloading and uploading job and you only have to log on one system and not like Dictaphone where you have to log onto the VPN and then log onto the program. It's always worth a try, but yes, the biggest complaint I hear is that no one can make a living and the cpl isn't that great.
I went back in house and love it. I love not being
secluded. I was working in my PJs, less organized and feel much better now that I get up and dress for work and see people (even those in traffic aren't so bad anymore). I find that I have more of a life now, and my family says that I spend more time with them now.
Working at home served its purpose for a long time; I was ready to go out into the world again now that I have no little ones at home.
BD WONG! I love him! I love all CSI and Law and Orders!
I am so addicted. I actually schedule my job and family around the shows LOL.
Love love love my chair
The arms can be lowered so they won't be in your way, I don't know about the tilt limiter. But I bought my off ebay about 6 years ago and can't do without it. No I do not think you can find another chair that even compares to the aeron, changed my working life completely, no sore back or butt. You won't regret it, but you will if you go for a cheap imitation.
I daydream about NOT working while I'm working.
There are so many other things I need and want to get done. I've been working way too hard lately, and summer is just slipping by again. Well, I'm outty.
LOL. I love it. I also love the song sm
I wouldn't take nothing for my journey now. Miss the Happy Goodmans!
Repeat after me: I love my job, I love my job. :) nm

You can love a job and still love being home! sm
I got into medical transcription for many reasons. Yes, one was that I wanted to be home with my children, another was that I wanted to be in the medical field, and yet another was this just fits me. Medical terminology and grammar are two things that have always come easily to me. So, this fits. I can work early, early mornings and late nights when they are asleep. Also during afternoon naps. Yeah, doesn't leave a heck of a lot of time for myself, but THAT is a sacrifice I am willing to make, leaving my kids for someone else to raise/care for all day wasn't.
I do not love money but I love what it can buy
for me. I work 4 days a week now and was not bringing home what I wanted every 2 weeks, for some reason that is at least 1,000.00. I just decided to turn up the speed and put my mind to doing at least 3000 lines a day and figured by that should get what I want in the pay line. Worked well for me. I tell people if you want to talk with me call before I go to work, do not let outside influences bother me during my hours. Other than a bathroom break, glass of water, here for the straight 8.
I love Google and I love MTs
Okay, who in their right mind would not only discuss but have passionate opinions about hyphens and apostrophes? I love it!
Anyway, in googling grammar rules I found numerous references that two days' time would not but hyphenated but when used as a modifier like two-day history, it would be.
I remember telling an OB nurse friend of mine about fretting over 38 weeks pregnancy and whether the hyphen belonged in there and she just laughed and said she thinks she would get the point either way. Well harumph!
Love Judge Judy but love Judge Joe
Brown. I often wonder how many of the people involved in Judge Joe's cases have to go home and look up in the dictionary what he said to them. Some of them just have blank faces staring at him when he is giving them a lecture, w/o a clue of what he is actually saying to them.
Working. LOL What else? nm
