Same boat here, emailed you. You know there is something sm

Posted By: LMT on 2007-03-25
In Reply to: Company I work for was recently bought - by an Indian company

to hide if MTs weren't notified about this. Sad we hear about it from other outside sources rather than our own company. I always tell my children if I hear of something they did wrong, I darn better hear it out of their mouth's first! No loyalty here. Guess it is back to the job board for me.

I have never heard of that. When I emailed
the phone company, they did not even mention such a product, but I live in the boonies so that could have something to do with it. Does it cost a pretty penny to get? TIA:)
I have emailed you and have more info. - sm
if you want it.
I emailed my "boss"

This is what was forward to me. It comes from the accountant -  

I have not heard about the IRS pushing for this.  However, I seem to recall hearing that the FTB is pushing for this in California.  Basically, it is easier for the tax collectors to get their money from employer contributions as opposed to quarterly payments.  The independent contractor status has been under attack for a number of years and this may be the way to finally eliminate it.  Check with your accountant to see if he/she has heard anything.


 


That's funny, because I just emailed her--sm
and asked her the very same thing, except for the power part, I know how that works. Guess I am not the only one!! :^)
I already emailed you with a company to fix

Hey there - I just emailed you w/some info...nm

per your request, I just emailed you *S*

To the person who emailed me...

Thanks for your reply and your time in replying, but I totally disagree.  (I don't reply back in email, as I never know WHO it is replying back to me... could be my MTSO!)


Just because I'm an IC for an MTSO does not mean they own me.  If they want to own me, I had better be getting a hefty salary, insurance, 401K, paid vacation, sick leave, personal days, season tickets to the Cowboys games, and a company car like my husband gets from his job. (And they do own him sometimes, up to 80 hours a week and more, but he sure doesn't get paid per line! Not hardly.)  It was all IN MY CONTRACT. 


You are right, she does not care that I have children. I DO. Which is why it was IN MY CONTRACT that I do a 24-hour turnaround, no less without prearrangement.  I am not asking her to care about my family, but I am asking her to care about the contract.  Sorry, but I refuse to do what you did and have someone else take care of my children.  That is why I do MT rather than make a lot more using my college education.  This is why it was, I repeat, in my contract. 


It does not just come back to what the boss wants.  She's not my "boss". I am my own boss, working within the bounds of our contract.  She is the one who keeps wanting me to go beyond my contract with no consideration for it, and it's not going to happen. 


If, like you seem to indicate, that's just how MT is... then yes, I will end up leaving the business.  However, judging by the other responses, this MTSO needs to learn the difference between IC and an employee/slave combo.


 


emailed you the link.

Still not opening at all for me. I emailed

THey emailed you through not site.
They don't know what your actual email is.
To Susie who emailed me...
I tried to reply but it was sent back!
One of the male MTs emailed me his pic. sm
I didnt know he was sending me a pic of his little willie.  I didnt want to see a penis when I looked and then just ROFL @ it. 
Piglet - I just emailed you....

Thank you, yes, I emailed you but it came back (sm)
as undeliverable and I never got your response. Thanks for posting here. I appreciate it
Emailed owner....
Thank you for the offer. That is so nice. I just emailed the owner asking her if she had this information for me or if any of the other MTs there have it.  I will let you know and appreciate the help so much.
I emailed you yesterday. nm

If we are in the same boat so are all the other MTs so I think we should really do something about
this because us coming on here wont solve the problem although it is nice to know the game they are playing. What is the old saying, you name the game and I can play it too. Nice to know the game is being played on everyone so they dont said it is ONLY YOU. Please if anyone knows what to do let me know or come on here and let us know.
I'm in the same boat as you are.
I'm the same age, in the same field, and most likely looking forward to the same prospect.  I guess the only difference is that I prefer to have a positive outlook.  I'm not dead, not without education, and not without skills.  Although I don't want to have to find another job before I retire, I will IF I have to, and I'm confident that I will be able to.   I wasn't trying to blame anybody.  I was just trying to insert a little humor in an otherwise depressing post about an issue over which we have little control.  I understand the need to talk about it, but sometimes there is just as much need to just realize we can't do anything about it and then move on, laugh about the absurd, and notice the things we DO have.  The joke just seemed to fit under the other post where someone else was kidding about Bush having it out for everyone.  Maybe had I signed it "Kanye West" it wouldn't have gone over your head.
I'm in the same boat


Just curious is this person located in California?


in the same boat, except for
Around 15K in debt, gross 40k a year, rent going up in a couple months, all this buzz around me about houses, tired of being stuck in an apartment, living check to check.  BUT...I have been payng off debt to a tune of 5k or so a year, or under, and am looking into the prospect of getting a roommate.  To me, I must be absolutely out of debt and in a secure job (MT not too secure right now) before I take on a mortgage.  You said you have a renter?  Why dont you go for the house and have your bro sign something, for financial reasons, so he sticks around and pays you monthly, cut back anywhere if you can, and continue to pay off debt while you're in your new house?
same boat here
I have 25+ years experience, do mostly OPs and always get the ESL accounts. What are these companies going to do in a few years when the seasoned pros are out of the business and none of the newbies can transcribe these accounts because they never had to learn them? I get paid the same as the other people but get the crap account because I can produce and understand the worst, I have seriously thought of leaving the MT profession just for this reason.
I am in the same boat, but (sm)
I am still using Verizon. When I signed up, they told me it was okay to use for transcription, not a problem, but nonetheless, I am very worried right now. I think I need to look for a new job. As it is now, I hate to even dial in to get work. How long did you use it before you got nailed?
