Even if you are an employee for a company, they can't guarantee work.  The work comes from the dictating arena.  The MTSO doesn't have any control over that!!!  LOL

Hypochondriacs can be huge manipulators, sympathy seeking, game-playing people.  I wouldn't waste one minute of my time or even a breath until your neighbor GETS HERSELF TOGETHER - it's NOT your responsibility......and she probably had these problems before she became your neighbor or you became her neighbor....some people are just comfortable in their negativity.  If she has this history, I wouldn't go near her with a 10-foot pole unless she apologizes for her bogusness and means it......

I have little tolerance for game-players in the life......

new. I betcha.

we installed EXText where I worked and I learned that there are a certain number of channels or ports per server, meaning on one server an allotted number of dictators and transcribers can connect to the server at one time.  The more channels in use, the harder the server works, and that will slow connection speed.

I also learned that if all channels are in use, any other would be users trying to connect are sort of placed in a holding pattern waiting for an open channel and that can cause hiccups in the server as well, i.e. disconnections, lock ups.

We were told by the IT department that although we may have 20+ channels available for use, we shouldn't schedule 20 MTs to be on at the same time just because we can.  We have to consider the dictators who need access, etc. 

So basically your employer may have too many trying to connect at the same time and the server just can't handle it.  You might ask the other MTs if they are experiencing similar difficulties and if they are, then its a better bet that it is a serve problem.

 reports they listen to quite frankly.

  I actually have a little TV just to the right of my desk. I'm always at my desk it seems, so I have the TV on all day long. As hard as it is to admit, and like I said, I'll do it only because I'm anonymous, I have the "judge shows" on my TV all day long. I feel like admitting that I read the Enquirer or something, lol. I used to have Starting Over and then the ABC soaps on, but I needed a change of pace so I hang out with judges all day.  Right now, I'm working and watching Dancing with the Stars...and I'm usually sitting here working and watching Lost, Desperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy, and other favorites.

i don't follow all your posts so i don't know if you like girlie men or not but in any case you are dead wrong about trolling and you can wrap your brain around that.  i have no reason to lie on an anonymous board to anonymous people.  on the other hand you have a reason to not believe me because your ego is involved.  too bad sometimes people can learn if they push their ego and need to be right at any cost aside. 

ps:  you are 100% dead wrong on me trolling and i really don't think you understand the concept.  once you accept you aren't that smart, you can continue to learn grasshopper.
