sounds like dano wants things dano's way and otherwise she wa-wa-was to the adminstrator.
so if you disagree with dano you are not playing the game dano likes and she posts some crap to the adminstrator. now that is low and crummy. dano has dominated the boards with HER OPINION and when others disagree she whines. That's adult.
TransTech does. I think the ST will work with it. nm

work type/TransTech
Don't be afraid to email QA and ask for help. I work for TT, too, and our QA Dept. is top notch. 
but boards will be dano's boards and that's the issue. no one dare disagree with dano.
yes the boards will be boring with just one-sided opinions but we need to please dano. isn't that the purpose of MT Stars?
To Dano
Thank you for your post of 07/22. I have followed your advice, and my productivity has definitely gone up. I intend to give myself at least a 5k per year raise with my new methods. Your post was the little "push" I needed. In fact, I printed it and I keep it on my bulletin board to re-read when I need that little "push" again. 
Thank You Dano
I appreciate your outspoken honesty and because of that I am sure there are some MT's (myself included) that value your advice and will benefit from it I know that I have. Thanks again.
Yes, it was J. As I said to Dano below, I
believe the whole thing had to do with the fact that I chose to use my own computer rather than TransTech's computer. More work for J. See my message to Dano, but I will repeat that when the foot pedal they sent me did not work, J advised me to contact Dictaphone directly for assistance and did not want to help me in any way at all. He also blatantly lied to Debbie Hood in an email he sent to her that she CC'd to me. After that, there was no way I could work for them and have to deal with him in the future for technical problems I might have.
Hi Dano.
I always enjoy reading your posts on MT Stars.
To Dano
I gave notice at my present job and accepted a position with TransTech, then since I am old timer like you, and definitely NOT a job hopper, I got scared, and decided to stay, just because I know for sure what I have here. But I am now wondering if I made a mistake as I seem to hear only good things about TT, especially the part about the wonderful tech support. That would be a welcome change. Is the Dictaphone ExText easy to learn and use? Thanks.
Dano
I agree with you 100% about QA. I hate that when one person tells you one thing and another tells you a different thing. I wonder if they realize how frustrating it is to MTs that it's not consistent. And to top it off, the QA person, both of them were rude in their emails. I understand totally the need for QA, but some of the QA people think their word is gospel and it isn't always. One QA person wrote me and said "follow-up" is not a word???? Well I about lost it, so I found it in Webster's and copied and pasted it. Never heard a word from her. Where do some of these people come from? Amazing.
Thanks Dano
I'm only 30, 31 in January. I'm a single mom. I was trying to work things out with my ex and of course it didn't. I guess the online I was hoping was a quick fix, but I do need to get out more and create a life for myself. I live in Las Vegas and it really is a hard town to meet people here. I have started working out and things. We'll see.
Post by Dano
Trying to find a post by Dano having to do with "making money" or "how to make money". I've done an archive search with no luck.
Thanks in advance,
WannaB
I have to agree with Dano
He is an old man, and I just don't believe it is worth starting a whole big stink about. It would be different if you had to bring little children over there, or something like that, but at his age, I would just tell him to "cut it out" or just keep away from him as best you can. I know I'll get a bashing for this, but..........
Dano's post....sm
You're so right.
I worked for years in a radiation oncology dept and then surgical oncology for 2 more years and it got so depressing for me...seeing 3 y/o kids with leukemia and all swollen from steroids, was the saddest field I had ever worked in....and then going through ones' family members going through all kinds of treatment(s) as they got elderly.
Very sad, indeed.
But for MT work at home - it's not as depressing, we don't get to *see* the patients, hence it is a little less depressing, in my opinion only.
Be well :)
In defense of Dano....
Further down on this board, someone posted a very rude post that implied that people who didn't think a college degree was important were inferior. Dano requested that the poster not put people down that way. So it's very understandable why she would ask this question.
But you already know that, don't you? You responded to that post by telling her she has issues.
Since you obviously have you own issues concerning your abilities to understand how this board works, the most current posts are at the top, which means the less current posts are at the bottom, which means she posted her request to stop putting down posters BEFORE she asked the above question.
You're even more rude than the *superior feeling* poster who started all this.
Sorry Dano, but I'm stepping on the above comment -
BOARD MIGHT BE NASTY THAT WAY??
What kind of thing is that to say?
So are you saying that you, yourself, would want to slam people and name call and such just to make the board exciting?? Do you have such a pathetic life that this is all you, or people like you, have to do with your day.
Why not go and screw up your kids mentally, or kick some dogs, or burn some cats, or verbally abuse strangers in grocery stores - then you might not be so bored.
Dano no matter who it is from, take it to heart.
It is well written and not back stabbing. Does it really matter who it's from?
Dano -- The children on this board do not like
anyone who is well spoken, calm, productive, insightful, etc.
There are some true adults on here who DO enjoy meaningful conversation. Most, however, fail to reach mature conversation.
I think they're jealous. Hahahaha Now THAT is going to get flames started. Hahahaha
You couldn't be more wrong about Dano and I ...
we are indeed 2 different people. I have never met her, have no idea who she is whatsoever.
I was taking a light-hearted approach to all the childishness displayed on this board.
I was addressing Dano. Practice your coloring. School starts back very shortly. Make sure you stay within the lines.
Hahaha
couldn't agree more with you, Dano - nm

You are right, Dano. I apologize for sounding
so critical.
Yes, QA can have problems getting their act together. Most of time, however, I see MTs who absolutely feel they should never be corrected nor forced to follow the client preferences because they have a zillion years of experience.
No one knows it all. It doesn't matter if you have 1 year of experience or 25 years of experience; if the client wants it a certain way, they want it that way, period.
I should have tempered the tone of my post and I am going to ask Admin if they will make a change to it.
No busy-body MT, just somebody who has your and dano's number.
And kill one of your screen names. You have been outed.

Anyone with TransTech
How long does it take you to get your 1100 lines, on average. Also, how strict are they with you about sticking 100% to your hours.
TIA
TransTech
No work lately.
TransTech
I have been with Transtech for a little over 1-1/2 years and it works great for me.
TransTech
Anyone know anything about this company. They sure do sound "good". Anyone who can give some insight please post, especially if you are currently with TransTech.
TransTech
I have just been offered a position with this company. Could you tell me if the full-time employees really make 11,000 lines a PP? Also what kind of platform do they use. I have heard that the ExText one is not so good. I have not done MT for a year or so, so I've been out of the loop for awhile. I REALLY need an honest answer on this company as there are other companies that look good also. As you said, they looked very good. I talked to the recruiter and everything sounds SO wonderful, almost TOO good to be true. PLEASE HELP ME DECIDE. The 11,000 lines a day sounds ludicrous to me as I have NEVER made that many lines with any company/account I worked for.
TransTech
Could you tell me a little about it. Do you really make 11,000 lines a PP. Is it an easy account to do given the recruiter says they have a lot of interns that come and go. I REALLY want to take the job offer, but I'm SO afraid I'll end up with a company that is really hard and demanding and is hard to get a good line account. ANYTHING you could tell me would be most appreciated as it would save me SO much work looking at other companies first before I give her my answer. I TRULY NEED YOUR HELP ASAP as she was SO nice, but now I'm seeing other companies that look good too. I need a company that will supply the PC and everything and most of them don't. That is one of the reasons I liked Transtech also.

Try TransTech
You cannot go wrong with them.
I did with TransTech.
They told me about 3 times via email that they would call me the next day. I kept following up and finally I got a call the third time that was 3 days later than stated in the email. The person was very friendly and apologetic, but I couldn't wait around 2 weeks to hear from them, so I ended up somewhere else. I don't regret my choice either after having interviewed with them. The pay was not good. They did offer benefits, but since I don't need them, I'd rather have the $$$.
Yep, MQ and Transtech NM

Transtech
is anyone currently working at transtech
Bless your heart. I agree with Dano whole-heartedly.
Maria Shriver Kennedy Schwarz (I'm not spelling that out...hahaha) said that her mother taught her: You CAN have it all, just not all at the same time.
Great advice. You usually have to go through stages or phases of your life to fulfill all the wants and dreams...from careers, to parenting and child-rearing, homemaking, etc.
no you aren't alone dano. you have your clones and alter egos.
look in the mirror. you have a friend.
In my case, it was TransTech. I went with them
because they were the only company that I could not find a negative post about on this board. Live and learn.
TransTech computer
When they hired me they didn't have a computer to send me right away so I said that I wouldn't mind using my own since I have 2 personal computers. Okay, so J phoned me to set me up and worked and worked with it and like you, couldn't get the program to work properly. He even told me he would call me back and called Dictaphone himself and he DID call me back. By that time I was just getting frustrated and *I* asked him to please just wait and send me a company computer when one was available, which if I remember correctly they either located one for me that day or the next. But he was never in any way discourteous while trying to get my computer to work. In the 2 years I've worked for them I have had very few problems and when I have had a problem I would call the office and either get J or T immediately or one or the other always called me back within no more than 10 minutes and both have ALWAYS just been so very pleasant. If you're really interested, I think it wouldn't hurt to have a conversation with Deb, she is a wonderful, wonderful person and believe me, she really CARES about her MTs.
TransTech in Texas does them. nm

Did you mean DSG and TransTech pay LOWER than 8.5??

TransTech uses Ex-Text

I'm sure it is Transtech. Just the bestest little co on the
xx
Anyone who works at Transtech
have you been getting a lot of reports on a certain account that have been under a minute for the past couple of days, like echos, stress tests, etc. I have been getting these like nonstop for the past 2-3 days. I guess I shouldn't complain because it IS work, but I get so annoyed with these piddly little dictations that take more time to set up for than to actually type them. It's really killing my line count. Am I alone or are others experiencing this?
Not at TransTech, They are/were all MTs. Even the owner used to be an MT. One of the
things I really respect most about this company actually. All supervisors, managers, leads and even the owner used to be MTs. I think the only ones who weren't are the IT staff.
Sorry Dano, my comment wasn't to you - but to the person that said "boards might be nasty that
by the way, I see there is one person that all of a sudden made four comments about you in a matter of five minutes ... SO MATTTTUUUURRREEE
i don't need gold stars like you and dano and your alter egos. i need to be paid.
seems like you would want to be paid so you could continue your goal to be a doctor. bwaaaaahaaaaaaaa. a doctor posting endlessly on podunk MT board. that's rich.
If have worked for TransTech for two years,
you undoubtedly know that Debbie and J go way back and used to work together at another company (reference a recent email you should have received from T, the new president that states that she, J, S, and D all worked together before TransTech). I received an email from Debbie stating that she was sorry I was dissatisfied with tech support, but that they had never ever had any complaints about them before mine. Kind of shows me where I stand in all of this. Many times when managers and tech support are friends, it's the MTs who suffer.
what is your experience with Transolutions and Transtech
Do they keep their promises, primary account stability, start out at least 9 cpl, supervisors easy to get ahold of, etc.
TransTech does - small fee per month (sm)
I have been working for them for about 3 months and love it there.
Transtech/Transhealth/WebMEDX..(sm)
Does anyone know if any of these 3 companies use the Dictaphone ExText platform? Thanks
