I average 1700 - 1900 in an 8-hour day. I
have also been doing this for 25+ years and have hundreds of Expanders and bunches of normals/standards that I have created. I am also on only 2 accounts from the MTSO. I also find that Ops are my favorites, and can literally fly through those while maintaining a 99+% accurace rate. It takes time. 16 months is not a long time in this business to increase your speed. My goal is always 200 lines an hour and I usually take a 10 to 15 min. break every 2 hours just to get away from the computer. It can be done.
1700 lines a day? That's all? nm

$1900
I cannot figure out why you did not pursue the $1,900. This is nuts, I must say. You have allowed them to take your money and steal what is yours. You should have gone to small claims court. I think you still can. You must do so immediately.

1700 during the week, 2500-3000 on weekends
:-)
1000 to 1700, depending on work type
on the slow days, its usually because I cannot get myself motivated!  I think it really depends on the work type as well and the doc.  If you are straining to listen hard to every word and have no idea what he is talking about, then you aren't going to make a good line count and if you have those kinds of reports throughout the entire shift, well, there you go.

Well, I do about 1800-1900 lines a day
at 8 cpl. I also get some incentive/bonus pay, too.

So, yeah, it can be done. Your statement that anyone working FT from an MTSO can expect to earn less than 25K is extremely self-limited. There are always people who can do more and better.


Send me the proof of the over $1900.00 that is owed. If you can prove to me
that you paid that amount, then all posts will be removed.  I am not talking about any previous monies paid, but the last monies owed of over $1900.00.
