Never heard of that one.  Was told lines would increase but nothing about rate decrease and I've been on DQS since day one

The ME are their most knowledgeable employees because that is what it takes to be an editor. You need tons of experience and years of transcription to edit correctly from the gibberish that comes on the screen. Yet, they decrease your pay for ME by 20% and expect an increase in productivity by 25%. As all the worst dictators are not ASR but need to be transcribed, how do they expect the struggling MTs (newbies) and less experienced MTs to make a living. This sucks.

I received my letter today, and I am very angry.  The price of gas is going up, which will cause everything else to go up, and we are getting a decrease in pay.  

they want to decrease our ME pay by 20%. we need to all be asked to go back to MTs and earn what we are worth

or hours".  THIS is how it works, per Labor Board, clearly stated.  Or maybe you'd like to educate us on "how it works".  Who's talking about "hating", which you keep bring up?
