You can be banned for posting these type of questions on this board. At least that is....
what they told me.  Unless they are selective on style/word/abbreviation questions being asked here.  Hmmm.  I wonder.
They have been banned from posting here as well

as at many other MT sites as well.  Their software costs around $400, but you don't actually buy the software from them, but a company that they say you have to buy it from.  Many, many times the software has not worked and TA said it isn't their problem cause you didn't buy it from them and the software company will not refund $$.   There are more than 30 complaints against them on file with the BB.  In the many years that they have been suckering people I have only heard one person who ever got real work for which she got paid.


The owners have moved to a different state at least once.  They probably moved to FL because of no state tax.  They claim to be upstanding religious people and they should be shamed of themselves.


It is common knowledge that they are a scam and it has been posted here as well as other boards for years.   If you Google them I'm sure you'll find all kinds of garbage about them.   They were even listed in one non-MT magazine to avoid them.


I don't know why they aren't in jail. 


I'm not allowed to say that name on this board or I'll be banned..sorry..
If you'd care to e-mail me, I'll share, but I've been told not to say that name on this board or I'll be banned.
I don't know how it made such a small diff in your invoice... made a $100 diff in mine! (sm)

If it were only adding up to three bucks, I wouldn't sweat it. $100? Yeah, that's baseball registration for my son for this year. I am not giving tabs, returns, etc. away free when it adds up to that much difference!  Why should I charge less for a Return than I would for a"K"?


 


 


and yet they are posting on MT board!
and all that hard work paid off so they could spend time with the riff-raft on MT board. sweet. i bet her parents are real proud of all that money they spent on her education. hee.
Posting on this board sm
I agree with the moderator and the thing that bothers me is that some take up so much of some of the boards, that they seem to "overcome" and this is why in desperation, some say, "Please help me on".....xyz board because they know the board they should be posting on has only one or two posters. Albeit, these posters are helpful also, but don't you think it would be wise to allow only a certain number of posts per day on certain boards to allow someone else to get a word in edgewise? Then there would not be so many "lockouts" and posts on the main board. I was in a situation that was of importance to my future business and I did ask for help on a board which seemed to have only one or two posters lately, and I was shut down. This is not a punitive message, just a suggestion that sometimes we are desperate to be helped. This board is an excellent source of communication and I would hate to see anything negative happen here. Just a suggestion. Carry on the good work!
why are you posting on the main board ??

Did anyone see the posting on the job seeker's board with
the ortho emphysis? 
Did you notice the posting on job board

for the company hiring new grads?  I would be highly suspicious since they didn't give the name of the company.  It may be a legit company, but.....


 


I tried posting on State Board, but is anyone else from TN?

That particular poster is now posting on the new MT board
noticed several posts from her over on that board, which is where I suspect she belongs, to be honest.
CHS Acct Mgr posting on job seeker's board
I have a sneaking suspicion that this is Ascend.  If anyone finds out what company this is, please let us know!
Anybody having problems posting on word board ?

I have tried several times but will not post, some type of error. 


 


Maybe you would have better luck posting this on the coders board.
.
Thank you so much for posting that. I just came on the board to look up the going rate for Midwest
and there you were! Thanks so much!!!
Check out the posting on job board titled "mt job".

This is who we're losing our jobs to?!?!


I am sick of people posting crap on this board and not backing it up. nm.
nm.
RadGuy, I gottah say this. You'll find someone on this board if you keep posting!! Even though mo
married (happily, others not), you just come off as interested in what we do as MTs (because you understand), you are funny, witty, and have a great personality....

I can just see it now....
You are personally invited to a virtual on-line wedding to celebrate.....

LOL!!

You realize you are posting this on the main board, right? Not everyone at this site works for MQ.

You are going to be banned
uh oh - you said a bad bad word and now ADMINISTRATION WILL BAN YOU!
What?? What was I banned from?

X


If that is true they should be banned
from posting on this board in particular and the internet in general !!!!
THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT WHY WE WANT YOU BANNED
That is the exact point.  We want to be able to express our feelings without having you call us losers, tell us to comb our hair once in a while, tell us to go on a diet.  Your are totally unprofessional and out of line THAT is why we want you banned. 
Sorry about your luck. He was banned!!!
lol.
And to think....I actually felt bad when they banned me...
I just used a different email, but then I was very careful and didn't post a lot of things I wanted to say for fear of being banned again. ->sap<-
so you think polite should be banned as well? NM

Pay for Diff Accounts

It seems to me that the pay per line should vary according to the difficulty of the account.


Everyone agrees that the line count can be totally different from one account to the other, so why doesn't the pay vary?  That would be the fair way to do it.


Does anyone know of a company who does that?


Diff between IC & subcontractor
What is the diff between these two?  And do most of you have set hours that work as a subcontractor or do you pretty much have flexible hours?  Thanks!
Not RadGuy but didnt take much to get banned

YES, MQ pays shift diff but you have to ask for it. SM
I complained bitterly about it and they gave me half a cent per line for nights and weekends. Adds up to about $75 per check and YES, it is paid on my bimonthly check.
If you posted the name of that "site" would you then get banned from this site?

Thanks for your help.
Diff between 1200 lines/day with MQ vs Spheris:
If you type 1200 lines a day for 5 days of the week with each company, here is the incentive difference:

MQ: Incentive would be $0.
S: Incentive would be $24.

That is for the entire week.
Ok - There's a diff between DREAM job and REALISTIC GREAT job!
Do want that? Seriously.

I have worked for companied in a diff. state - sm
than I live in. I have not have to pay the other states tax. You just have to pay the tax for the state you live in and of course Federal tax and SE tax as well. I have my DH take extra out of his paycheck to cover my SE taxes. Last year owed about 15% of my net after write offs. But the rule of thumb is to reserve about 30% of your gross to cover state and federal, and SE taxes; and if you think you are going to owe pay quarterly to avoid any penalties. I have not "owed" to date as my husband as enough dededucted, but when I think that may change I will start making payments quartly.
What diff. do ? make? Answers will be based

I have,however Ms. Jester comes in under a diff. email addy to
to post.  Everytime she comes on to post, I ban her.  What is unprofessional about posting the truth about a company owner who is not doing the right thing by paying unpaid wages? I'll go ahead and answer.  Nothing.
you're right, it's federal but diff for each state...see link...sm

http://www.dol.gov/esa/minwage/america.htm


ALL STATES PAY MINIMUM WAGE DIFFERENTLY - i.e., Arizona says *No state minimum wage law.*


What diff does it make if it is one during the day or at night? Your computer should be protected

Tylenol words best for me. Glade products should be banned, the worst.
Tylenol words the best for me, have to take LOTS to ward off headaches that become 17 on a 1-10 scale.

Glade Products are the worst for me. They are to terrible and ought to be outlawed. I cannot be around them AT ALL and have to leave if they are used anywhere, in churches, homes, etc. Apparently some people are not at all sensitive to them, but they ought to know that other people are very horrendously affected. It is all chemical, either you are sensitive or you aren't, and the people who are not just simply are not. But the people who are suffer real pain and so I think no one should use them. Why would you want to expose the people who are sensitive? Just my opinion.

What's the diff between a gross line and a 65-char line?

cherrypicking co-worker issue (meant to post it on this board instead of MQ board) sm...

I need opinions please...I work on a very small account with just a handful of ladies.  Because of the nature of the software (trying not to get too specific here) we can see who is working online and what reports they are working on in real-time...



We have one cherrypicker on the account.  Instead of using FIFO method, she retrieves the reports by author ID - usually picking the better dictators of course.  She knows I busted her and she did admit to it in on our work e-mail (not too bright) which I am saving just in case she gets out of hand - so far I'm still able to make money since really most of the dictators aren't bad. 



But every night it's starting to wear on me since she's screwing up turnaround time.  I don't really want to cause a big uproar being that it is such a small account and I need to work with her almost every night usually one on one.



What would you all do?  I want to handle this as delicate and professional as possible because we can't really afford to lose anyone on this account.  In other words, I refuse to stoop to her level by cherrypicking right back.


My boss has asked me several times why so-and-so does so much more than I do...I just bite my lip at that point but one of these days I think I might explode and just open up a can of worms....
