There are some negative posts about them on a search. nm

We had problems with the Main board and some posts were removed. You did not offend

Another large MT website that always was pro MQ now has many many negative posts so I think MQ is
not looking too popular and I expect after getting THE phone call a lot more will be unhappy. Well, my resume is out.
Wow! Geez! do not listen to any negative posts...
Now I have read the below posts. Please, please do not pay attention to the couple of negative posts. I, and most others here, know, or have a good idea, of how you are feeling and the family dynamics that come into play. I think you are right that your mother will not listen or want to hear what is going on. I like one poster's idea of sending her flowers. I think that is a wonderful idea. Send lots of notes, e-mails, flowers letting her know you care. Just make sure you send them so that SHE gets them and not to be intercepted by the step-father. She may even begin to question what is going on and begin to see the light.

Again, I hope you make that counselor appointment! It is so good to be able to let it all out to someone!
In fact, upon further searching, I see very few negative posts

MTStars does not condone posts that are incredibly negative in
nature. Ugly, crass, demeaning posts are removed. We receive a tremendous amount of traffic to this site and we do the best we can in moderating. Please take posts with a grain of salt as you are visiting an open forum that does not require registration.

If you see a post that bears removal, click on the offending post, click on the Report Message link at the top, right hand corner and let us know that the post needs to be removed.

We want MTStars to be a nice place to visit, but we need your help when you see offending posts, because we don't catch everything.

I agree..."me" should read those posts. very negative. NM.
.
I've never made a negative comment about newbies.
I always try to help out whenever I can. It's not easy to work from home. The matchbook schools and scam ads have people believing they can do something that is a bit more complicated than just taking a correspondence course and immediately knowing everything you need to be successful in this career field.

Believe me, I was desperate to work from home, too, because daycare costs were phenomenal. I started out transcribing TV shows for a media company at first. Then I did worker's comp and insurance letters for a small MTSO on the east coast at $.05 per line. They liked my work and transitioned me to clinic SOAP notes. As for working in-house doing transcription, I worked in an office for ONE WEEK before they allowed me to go home. If I can do it, so can you. It may take some searching, but persistence pays off. That's being proactive. Venting here on the boards and accusing people of things they didn't do are being reactive.
Hey, I don't live on this board. We catch negative posts and delete
at any time. In the top, right hand corner of each post, there is a Report Message button you can click on.  We do the best we can.
I'm sorry you were made to feel like that.
People really have no idea what we do. Even though our career is unique in certain ways, do remember most people's careers do get insulted by people who have no clue they are doing it. But even though I try to stay level-headed, having my older sister say anything negative about my job tends to put me in a terrible funk. She thinks it's okay when I'm working in an office, but she doesn't think it's wise to work at home due to the lack of social interaction and the difficulty of compartmentalizing your work time. When I decided I had to do it at home again, right away I warned her to say NOTHING negative about it because this is my decision and it will only cause problems. So far so good for me this time. Hey, a friend of mine took up karate when her son did, and she got her black belt. Now nobody critizes her anymore, LOL.
Thank you! You made me feel much better.

hate how you are made to feel
so obligated to buy, buy, buy.  I used to do it for a friend to help her out (she put pressure on me and I felt guilty!) but no more - I don't bother going now.
Mentoree made to feel DUMB

I am so angry because I feel like the lady at this company I am mentoring with treats me like I am DUMB. I am new to this field but far from being DUMB. When I ask for clearity on something it is like her response is demeaning. I don't know if it is just me or it seems like there are people in this field that are just rude. I don't want to appear ungrateful for have the opportunity to have a company mentor me but I AM NOT DUMB!!!!!!!


I don't what to snap back at her in her emails for fear of losing the opportunity. Any advice? 


hey, psychic is in your mind and your posts. i'm an mt. i just feel when people ramble about th
they usually have tried to relax and don't realize how crazy they sound. no i don't have a clue. i am reading between your lines which aren't making sense. i pretend nothing. magic 8 balls and psychic is your area of "expertise", not mine.
Wow. After reading all of these sad situations and posts I actually feel pretty blessed. I did sm
Have my car repoed about 8 years ago and it was the most embarrassing moment of my life. I've since come out of a rut with me working and having a husband who works FT. We are blessed. We have definitely struggled with our bank acct. being overdrawn to the tune of 700.00 before, but we luckily came out of that and it only happened once. To everyone who is in a dire situation, may you find grace and peace in God. Believe in miracles. Don't give up. Good luck to you and I mean that in all sincerity.
Thank you! That is all I wanted was someone to understand and be kind! You made me feel better with
future and get better, just BAD luck so far. 
This post made you defensive, just like those e-mail nastygrams make us feel.

Ugh! Negative, negative experience!!
I had an injury this past year that necessitated me purchasing Dragon Professional. Total cost approximately $1000 by the time I purchased the "good" microphone from Knowbrainer. I'm thankful everyday I had the option of using Dragon to get me through my injury but I hope to God that I never have to use it again as it drove me nuts and my production was so low. I averaged four hours a day more in my chair than usual, but were it not for Dragon, I'd have lost all my clients. The program is "iffy" from day to day in its ability to be "accurate." I trained the h out of it but still had problem after problem. If I had to do it over again and use Dragon for a short period of time, I would, but I can't imagine using it long term. Just my experience.
Just do a search and read the posts. There are plenty of posts about OSI on this board. nm.
nm.
i made $15/hr before and didn't stay long because i made so much more on production. sm
that was with full benes too. i wouldn't do it for less than $20, but i think even with $20, i'd want benes. are you in-house?
OSi ads are being removed. (SM)

Yes, it will be removed.

You have to have them removed by

I wish we could delete them ourselves.  It would be so much easier than trying to get someone to do it for you, plus they might delete the wrong ones.


It has been removed.

Yep - otherwise, modertors would have removed it.

I was removed off an acct. after one day -sm
as the client requested I be removed. I don't remember being given any samples (several years ago). It was an ESL, a new acct. etc. So I did have blanks here and there, the MTSO had told me not to worry, they'd QA all the work. For some reason or other they did not, hence the work went through as I had left it. Needless to say the client was not happy, so I was removed from the account. I did not lose my job though, but I was peeved for sure about the whole thing. We eventually parted ways and I have not had that problem since.

Yes, the information needs to be removed
If you want to reuse some of the discs, you can reformat them and erase the info.
Had one removed many years ago...
Hurt like the dickens everytime I tried to move my hands or fingers. After removal, haven't had a problem since. Surgery was outpatient. Was able to type (though very slowly) the next day. Back to speed within a week.
Why was my post removed?
I posted a thoughtful post in reply.

I would appreciate knowing why it was removed.

Thank you.

Was the post regarding Brainbench removed?

I have had nail tips put on and removed
numerous times but I always have them cut them way down the first time and then as they slowly grow you don't even notice the keyboard thing because it's a gradual thing. Before you know it you're typing with the longer nails. Done it many times and that's all that worked for me. Maybe go back and have them cut them down before removing them. I actually had people tell me the shorter nails look nicer, very natural, and long nails are pretty much out now anyway. Plus they are difficult to keep clean. You'll see. ; )
In addition, we have queued the ad to be removed
but it usually takes a few days for it to remove. 
And they are removed. If they're not, then they got missed.

Post was removed because it was not on this subject.
It was not against offshoring, it was against the other poster as well as this site.

You posted a hostile response without reason, and it was removed.

The fact that they haven't been removed

MODERATOR - WHY WAS MY POST REMOVED ABOUT WHERE I LIVE
All I stated is that I grew up in the Utica/Rome area, and now it is deleted.  Who did I offend????
Okay Sandra! We all agree you need to be removed from the board.
Hurting peoples feelings are uncalled for and just plain rude. You are a troll. You are very sad sad person who has no social graces whatsoever.
Job ads go on the Job Seekers board only, that is why post was removed.
