Please think twice about working for this company.
At $18 per audio hour, if it takes you four hours to type one hour of audio...you will only make $4.50 an hour.
There are better companies out there that pay more for general transcription. They're hard to find, but they are out there.
Let us know what you decide.

Misha, LOL...
you go girl, and trim trees if you really want to!
I have a long way to go before I feel financially secure with all this, but I have certainly been a happy soul to peel back the curtains, look out, and know that I am doing what I love doing each day!

Misha, I
 totally agree with you on this one!
Is this the same Misha who used to
post here a year or so ago and went into working outside the home for a nursery (plants) or something? If so, I thought that you were an experienced MT, with several years under your belt, but maybe I'm not remembering correctly. The other posters are absolutely correct. Even if the dictation you receive is so easy that you are able to complete one dictated hour in two real time work hours, that's only 9.00/hr. Hardly worth it, if you ask me.
You funny Misha. nm

Thanks, misha! My DH thinks that
it would help clear up DS's skin if he sat in the sun some every day, or even used a tanning bed as someone below said, although I'd be worried for him to do that because he has light skin, light blue eyes and blond hair - it was so light it was that white-blond when he was a baby/toddler. So obviously he has very fair skin and features so I worry about the risk of skin cancer.
But your link sounds like something different and I will check that out. Thanks for taking the time to research for me!
Misha, that was the show!
Wasn't it a blast to watch?! I wish they would do a followup or something. I'm surprised all those families saw it through. I almost died when the women were explained that they couldn't use traditional supplies for their periods, rather just "wear a rag." Now I know where that term comes from of "being on the rag!"
I saw the post that dinged Misha the other day
asking her if she worked because on this board so often. Hello, guess what? So am I and I just finished my first hour for the day WITH posting and it was 533 lines. I thought some nerve with that person. I work and can post between and probably others can do the same.
Misha..sounds like a wonderful vacation! sm
I could almost hear the waves crashing and seagulls singing from your very eloquent post! Been to the beaches of NC many times and they are the best! I am from the NE and I do not understand this *fixation* on LBI or the other Jersey shore beaches. Obviously they have never been to NC! There is truly no comparison. Time to make reservations for next summer! ; )
Misha...you just made me vomit in my mouth!
That was GROSS!
Misha, you're almost working for free--
--doing this. There are many general transcription companies that pay real money. I know, because I work for a couple. General transcription is a real industry with real people supporting families with their income. Whoever is paying this low a wage is LAUGHING at your gullibility.
the word state doesn't have to be capped, Misha
