I also talked to payroll and they
are the ones who told me it was a live check. It is not direct deposit.
I already said that I talked to payroll and asked why this was in IPAY,
They said that we will be receiving a check in the mail with a letter explaining it. They would not go into detail. I don't know how much more clear I need to make this for you.
I talked to a recruiter yesterday that told me she -
is the "preferred" recruiter for her company.

Oh brother, I wonder if her feet hurt from standing on her soapbox, voice is obviously strained from singing her own praises, and her arm is dislocated from patting herself on the shoulder.


I bought a new one from Dell almost a year ago and talked with the CS person. She told me the
models they still had available with XP. If you buy a new one though with Vista you can always remove it and reload with XP.
Yep, she used to be in payroll.

it isn't just payroll tax
the GST/HST is added to everything you buy - so an additional 13% on food, clothing, cars, energy, education, housing, etc., etc., etc. And while it may be $50 a check for you for some people it would be a lot more and for some a lot less. Hmmmm, sounds kinda like redistribution to me.
No need to submit anything for payroll if you are SE.
The platform keeps track of your lines and dates worked. As an SE, you choose your own hours and they expect you to work them, but actual time does not need to be submitted. They, of course, would prefer you also send in a time sheet, but cannot require it.
That is not just for payroll. It's how to find your

That isn't just for payroll. I am from the Southeast
and we were told by supervisors to use the method to read reports to check reports we had to send to QA if we wanted to see how they looked when the client gets them.
Payroll service sm
I used a payroll service, the cost was very nominal and they do all the work, keep all the records, send you statements, make out the payroll check and you hand everything over to the tax guy at the end of the year. I did open a separate checking account, it is much easier than mixing it up with your own money, keep it separate, no incorporation necessary unless you expect to expand. Just an opinion, of course. You can pay your own taxes from your account at the end of the year if you don't pay yourself each week, you can pay self-employment tax and use a Schedule C for yourself, be sure to keep some money in the bank for this.
2005 Payroll Schedule

The payroll schedule for MedQuist states PayDate as 07/11/05 (Monday). 


no you crack me up. if you are on mq payroll, you should really take a cut. not to clever to not
be able to disguise alias when trying to devise a multiple personality back-up to your multiple posts backing MQ.  LOL.  Nice try! 
No time sheet - but something to payroll? nm
.
No you aren't supposed to go there. That's for payroll.
Any lawyers in the house?
How is that falsfying payroll records ? - sm
she is only paid for what lines she produces at each job. I am sure her MTSOs must think she is slow though in terms of production, but that is her problem. Also what is unethical/criminal about it? I gather you only work 1 job and think it is wrong to work for more than 1 company at a time. Obviously I disagree with that idea. Sure most companies would prefer you only work for them, but most cannot give you enough work to pay the bills, so you need 2 jobs, plus it is not wise to have all your eggs in one basket. If you lose your job then your are screwed, but if you have 2 then at least you still have some income coming in.
it clearly says for payroll. i had to download microsoft office to see it.

it shows everything past and prior line counts.  i counted the spaces and lines and they did not add up to MQ version some times.  wonder of the MQMT lawyers have seen this. 


Payroll law? MDI-Fl now pays 6th working day after end of payperiod.
California laws say must be paid on or before the 5th working day after end of pay period.  Because the company is in Florida, would their law supercede California law? 
I was told I needed 2 phone lines, but was told I was dialing into the doctors' system. What woul

Apply for a business loan to meet payroll.

Tax guy told me to hold 30%. After first year when got idea what I would be making, he told me
:P
Such lies. Just yesterday I had a payroll problem. 1 phone call, person answered, and IMMEDIATELY
remedied the situation. There are always people there to help us.  Wendy is just lying, and like I'll bet she's lying about her name! Its sooooooooo stupid to do this stuff when you're a disgruntled ex.
I told you once, I told you twice, eTransPlus is going down the drain!
Don't expect communication from anyone, we are only little "peons."
I know - me too - I talked to






she said things are just as crazy in Canada now days as they are in the States...though they are stressed over our hurricane/new orleans situation a lot.


But prices of land and housing are just as bad there as here -

You probably should have talked to tax guy
x
Last I talked to them and
talked to somebody who worked there, the pay was only about 7 cents a line and the software/system was not very efficient.
HEY JUST TALKED TO KEN OR RAO OR WHOEVER
Wow, had problems with messages everytime I GOOGLED about computer shutting down since McAfee deal.  Well great, doing personal things tonight, do not want to show them that, thought needed another puter, this happened before some malware virus, they gave me another POS.  Anyhow, we got chatting and I asked him about India, blah, blah, but dang (insert poopy cacca here) I think he was Indian.  No kidding, the more we chatted, I bet they are instructed not to hold a real conversation.  I worked for an Indian doctor, recognize the accent.  I wonder where I really called.  I called on my cell phone, only phone I have now, so it better not be overseas.  Wow.  He was talking about Obama helping us, blah, blah, blah.  I am niave a lot, it took a while, but he was our enemy!  This stinks  
Sorry to hear that, have you talked to your
supervisor (or do you even have one in this MQ mess)? I am relatively certain my accounts won't be changed, if so then I will have another issue to deal with. I'm hoping for the best cause I REALLY hate to change jobs, but I'm not really expecting it!! I sympathize/empathize with you!! I have heard Transcription Solutions is supposed to be a pretty good company, they usually have an ad on the board. I will be thinking of you.
I have talked to their recruiter and liked her a lot. sm

I would like more information though as the archives give me a very mixed impression.  My email is above.  I just do not want to make a move without knowing that it will be better, not the same or worse.  Right now, I am with MQ.


Thank you.


Have you talked with your supervisor?
Every national I've ever worked for has assigned me a secondary or tertiary account so I never run out of work.
I talked to this really nice guy
I now wish I would have wrote his name down. They let me set up a plan, but I had to agree to the amount they set for me to pay each month, which is high for me, but at least I know it will be gone in 5 years, well now 4.
yes, I have talked with support
and they had tried it on several computers with vista and there were a few minor gliches but it caused problems.  The place where I purchased it will offer me 3/4 credit or full credit (waiting to hear the final word) towards a software purchase if I need it.  It is a dell so they can do all the work once I am able to connect to the internet after installing the CD software.  the company I am looking to go with says that it might be compatable next month  with vista (my luck) but I don't want to miss the boat of getting a position.  The company though will let me know what they think the best thing is to do.  Always something to think about... 
Talked about many times
There are ups and downs to both sides.  I have my own accounts have been doing it for 20+ years -- cannot believe it.  Start small even with tapes, I still do nothing but tapes, and printing and delivery.  I have small clinics, two doctor clinics, 3 of them.  I do not charge as much as the others but I charge gross line and so I think it all works out to be about the same.  I can make up to $50 to $75 an hour at times.  But average $40.   That includes throwing in the time for printing and delivering so that is my average.  My accounts hae been with me for 8 to 20 years.  I stay with the tapes as it is easier to not be undercut.   But again start small, send out flyers, brochures to doctors, clinics, podistrists, psychologists, chiropractors, etc.  You have to be persistent.  How many people look at a house before there is an offer.  I used to do mailings about every 3 to 6 months when looking for a new account as you have to be at the right place at the right time when they need someone.  Cons  --But then remember, there is no one to take your place when you are sick or your child is sick so do not over extend.  They might be understanding the first time but when it happens often, they are not.   Vacations need to be planned out, I take a couple of long weekends, 4-5 days rather than a week at a time.  It is hard to get someone to cover and be dependable.  It is your name and reputation out there.   Your work will always be there in your home, sometimes you just want to run away from it.   But the pros are there also.  You can make good money, you can make your own hours as long as the work gets done.    It takes time and persistence and start out small so you can build a good reputation.    Good luck. 
I talked to my chiropractor (sm)

and he said that new graduates (probably medical school ones also) are being told that Medicare/Medicaid won't pay for claims that aren't EMR genrated by 2014 and as early as 2009.  Thus several new doctors are starting right off the bat with this type of program.


EMR is a fact of life, the touch screen programs are being touted highly for doctors who perform the same type of procedures over and over and several hospitals and large clinics are making the switch.


I woke up this morning and decided to go back to school and finish getting nursing degree.  I don't think it's too far-fetched to be realistically concerned about MT being phased out.


I'm the one who talked to him (see message)
Well, emailed back and forth with him actually, and he told me he needed a GROUP that could commit to 5000 lines/day.

He apologized in his email to me for any confusion he caused by posting on this board. I don't think he realized the Job Seeker's Board is for individuals seeking positions and not for MTSOs seeking clients.
a company I talked to said it was not...
she said it was the anti-AAMT; a new group that was against offshoring.
Have you talked to soldiers who have been in Iraq?
I have.  I was told that we definitely needed to be in Iraq, that the job was far from being done.  I was also told that our soldiers would be in less danger now if the U.N. were not imposing so many restrictions on what they have been able to do.  The technology used to protect them costs money, yet we want to yah-yah over what is being spent.  Wars are horrible, but they will always be a reality.  I will not even argue about whether what Bush is doing is the best that can be done, but I know there are more minds working on the problem than just his, and we do not know, and probably will never know what is really going on.  We only know what the media lets us know, and how reliable is that? 
In the letter sent out by MQ it talked about the new pay plan for SEs and also a
comprehensive benefit package. I thought legally self employed were not allowed by law to be offered benefits. MQ had started a benefit package with health insurance many years ago long before Philips and were told by the government to stop because it is not allowed by law. Does anyone have any thoughts on what this means. I personally prefer buying my own health insurance etc and not tying it to how many lines need to be typed to keep insured with the ups and downs of work all the time.
talked to an atty about the MQ checks

Nope, go ahead and cash them as I already have.  If they had anything to do with ANY kind of settlement, it would clearly have to say so.  It just says adjustment, period.  He also said that since the class actions go over many different platforms dating back before the days of DQS, no way it could be a settlement.


Go shopping he told me, it does not state anywhere it's a settelment.  He says just like any other legal document, "by signing the below or cashing this, you are giving up your right to yada yada yada.


Talked to a transcription company
yesterday that only pays 7 to 7.5 cpl and has not raised that in years, does not plan to now.
Ditto. Just talked about this yesterday
children spending way too much time indoors online, not active.
I had this happen too! Even talked to the guy on the phone...
He tells me he'll have me test.  Never sends the test.  Calls me again says he'll have me test the next day.  Again, no test.  Haven't heard from him since.  Wouldn't test for him even if I do.   Wasted 2 days that I could have worked waiting on someone, who couldn't keep their word.
I talked to my supe and she said the same thing.
She then said that some people can make 1800 lines a day on that account so it can be done but I guess not by me.  I have to work from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. to get it all in and I do not want to have to work like that.  Too much computer time makes me cranky. 
yuppers -- and that she'd talked to the person and would do so again (sm)
It took me a while to realize that particular supervisor quite simply lied ... often ... about things great and small ... she even lied about me ...

I've found this business is full of "special" friends, special cases ... I do my best not to notice or care any more.
I talked with our tech people before
deciding to do this and they told me to just go in on the website and download them and if I had trouble to let them know.
Have you talked to Extext support? sm
All of the help in this thread is geared to you working in Word alone, not in a platform. You need somebody with experience in Extext to help you.
I talked to H about it and he basically said the same thing.
The day is not over yet.  LOL.
