GURU
Well, anyone who responds to this ad has to be desperate for work - and they know by the tone of this ad exactly what kind of people they will be working for. I wouldn't respond, but I suppose some others would.
Did anyone see this on Guru?
The part that really, really bugs me is the part they put in parentheses down there. Description:
We're looking for a place to outsource our transcription to. Over seas is fine if you can deliver a quality product. We intend to wholesale your service to our physicians. We have over 1500 physicians what utilize our other services, and we want to add transcription to the mix. You would need to have the ability to handle a large load of work, have the infrastructure to deal with it, and the ability to make our service look seamless (look like we're doing the work for the physician). Finally, you must be able to deliver us a per line charge that will allow us to add a profit, and remain competitive.
Guru - did you get the one at .50/page
I have never worked thru them but am listed. Did you see the one who had a 50 page paper they wanted typed and said they "heard the going rate was $0.50/page"? LOL
Not a computer guru here, but what about
trying a system restore and going back to a day before the problem happened?
I am so confused? Is Latter & Guru the same?
x
Yes, it does, TY. It was guru sent email about
x
Yes, thanks a lot - helped greatly!! NM

God has blessed me greatly too!!
It varies greatly...
Where I work the range is from 6 cpl up to almost 12 cpl so you just don't know. I guess decent is 10 or more. Anything less is not too good in my opinion especially considering I made 8 cents per GROSS line 10 years ago which would equal I don't know maybe around 11 cents per 65 character line and again that was 10 years ago. The only profession I know of where the pay continues to go down! Thanks technology! :(
Again, don't forget - Guru gets a cut of what you earn
x
A lot of those Guru projects seem just plain
xx
Maybe that's why it's posted on Guru is so he can find
offshores to do it.
I have to laugh - did anyone see this posting on Guru??
We are looking for someone that can transcribe 60, 90, or 120 minute
audio files. The transcript must be typed into microsoft word.
Compensation is as follows:
60 minutes $10.00
90 minutes $15.00
120 minutes $20.00
There will be repeat work for the right pro.
Greatly depends on whether you are an IC or employee.

Looking for computer tech guru to take Vista to XP...sm
I need to move a Vista computer to XP Home. Bought the Vista system, but is not compatible with a bunch of stuff. Have a copy of XP Home that will work. Anybody that can help with that? TIA
Katrina is going to impact us greatly in the wallets.
Prices everywhere are going to rise. I am not an expert but I can almost feel everyone preparing to raise rates for services and products. My biggest fear is insurance premiums. Can anyone argue me out of this thought process?
The incidence of errors could be greatly reduced - sm
if MTs were paid in such a way that they didn't have to positively RACE through everything they type, just to make a decent line count and an honest day's wage.
Take proofreading for example: Sometimes I think we come out ahead by NOT proofreading and taking our chances with missing an error, since if we really kick butt on our line counts, it can make up for being docked. But that goes against my nature. So I slow down enough to actually SEE what I'm typing, and then go back and proofread. It produces the best-possible quality of reports, but then eliminates any chance of a bonus because I can't reach that *carrot-on-a-stick* that is dangled a bit too high (in terms of a qualifying line count) for me to reach.
you should really start using expanders now! That would greatly help your production - nm

Look at what was posted on Guru.com - Is this horrifying or what?? India or Phillipines??

Another good one on Guru today. Pay is $25 per AUDIO hour.
With a 30-minute unpaid AUDIO test file. It sounds as if somebody got behind on their work and needs people to do it for free or minimum wage. Egads! What cheapos! I did an AUDIO hour tape this past weekend and made $100 off it. I could have charged more since it was a weekend stat but I gave the guy a break.
Any help on form 8829*Expenses for Business Use of your Home would be greatly
Hi All,
I was a statutory employee last year but not now. I usually do my own taxes but am having trouble with form 8829 and am not sure if the accountant can squeeze me in at this late date. Thought I would try here first for help. I use my den exclusively for work (almost) and am going to take this 7% of our home as a business expense.
Under Part II... Lines 10 and 11. Deductible mortgage interest and real estate taxes...I am going to take the entire amount on schedule A, so, hopefully, do not have to enter anything here.
line 17. Insurance. Are we allowed to take a portion of our homeowners insurance as a deduction? I have no separate business insurance.
Line 19. Utilities. I know I can take 7% of my electric, gas, water, garbage (I think), but what about phones? We have both cell and regular phone. When I call, I use the regular phone for toll free numbers, but the cell phone to my boss who does not have a toll free #.
Then, I need to find the value of my home for Part III. I guess I will check home sales in the neighborhood and go by that.
Geez..sorry for sounding like such a dummy. I can do all the other...capital gains, etc, just not sure what is allowed for home expenses.
As I say, I will try to get in to the accountant, but any advise for any of this form would be greatly appreciated. I cannot complete schedule A until I have my Profit or Loss done, which I cannot complete until I do this form.
Thanks.
I find that exercise has greatly improved the quality of my sleep
I used to need 10-11 hours of sleep to feel rested, but since I started exercising (40 minutes a day on an elliptical machine), I feel completely refreshed with 8 hours.
The Microsoft Wireless optical keyboard has greatly eased SM
The Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop 1000 keyboard (came packaged with wireless mouse at Staples), box says "standard keyboard + optical mouse) has greatly, greatly relieved symptoms on my elbows and wrists.
My elbows just stung before I got this keyboard. If I relax and kind of let it do what it wants, kind of get used to its touch, I really like it. It has greatly helped my elbow symptoms in particular.
THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP!!!! MUCH APPRECIATED!!!
:)
Thank you. That is appreciated. nm

See, my computer guy supposed to have come by yesterday, well didn't show but with all your help, have got it done this morning. Merry Christmas to all!!
Thanks again, much appreciated!

Any help would be so appreciated. sm
Starting a new account and it is using a Dictaphone c-phone. I have never used this type of machine and told them that when I took on the account. The office provided me with a Dictaphone Voice Processor Connexions phone, Model 421, and it has the headset and foot pedal connected to the phone itself.
I have managed to program the dial-in number successfully (yeah).
Their office manager is not helpful or knowledgeable about this at ALL. She just looks at me and says, "I have no clue about anything to do with the transcription."
When I call into the dictation server, it rings, connects, beeps once, and then sits there. I have looked at the instruction book (or a partial one that was given to me - book is ripped in half) and have tried the command #*18 to go into transcribe mode, but press the pedal and nothing happens, but I do hear three beeps.
In one part of the book, it says to program a quick access key to "sign off and get next" by using the number 8. I have also done this, but still - just three beeps.
Please help me - I am clueless. Always used FTP with digital recorders or Lanier, but never Dictaphone.
Thanks!
Thank You. Much Appreciated by Those of us Looking!

have a good day!
Burnt out and under appreciated
I can relate. My income is decreasing, my hours are increasing. My son is making more as a security guard at the local casino. I'm so tired at night I can't do anything. I think we all need vacations, if we could afford one.
It is SO nice to be appreciated by somebody!
I am so glad to see that somebody realizes these ESLs are practically impossible to understand, as the "higher-ups" in these outfits don't have a clue what we have to put up with, and they think our job is so easy-- we are "just typists", you know. I am just finishing up a very long night shift and you have made my day. Thanks again!
Thanks all for your responses. All help is truly appreciated!
We're just gonna ride it out. It's been 9 hours and he's still going. I did get him to agree to try to nibble a cracker and DH is bring home ginger ale and Gatorade was recommended by the NP, so we'll try that and maybe a popsicle and dry toast. Thanks for all the help. Say a prayer for us as we ride this out and pray I don't get it after him.
I really appreciated my dictator just now.
At the end he said, "This is <his name> bumbling through this again. Thank you so very much."
Guess it makes me at least feel a little appreciated.
Thank you all for these sites, they are truly appreciated (nm)
I didn't tell that to try to get anything from anyone though it is appreciated.
Things have progressively gotten worse for us since this summer. First having to work less to keep an eye on my child who is having problems, missing work to go to school, go to court, etc., then having work dry up AND having a company not pay in a timely manner. Not having insurance and having to spend hundreds of dollars a month on medicine. I was also a gestational surrogate and had the parents stiff me on bills, which eventually they paid but the stress of dealing with the lawyers and bill collectors didn't help. It has just been on thing after another...just piling on and drowning a bit at a time. We haven't paid rent on time since July and of course the landlord is upset. They have bills to pay too and I understand and appreciate that they haven't booted us yet. Next month I won't pay on time either and they are mulling over their options. I don't have money to move us anywhere and frankly no where to go. There are a couple homeless shelters here but they are scary and I don't think very safe.
I'm trying my hardest to dig us out. I think we'll be okay next year but I'm at my stress max now.
Thank you for answering. Much appreciated.

Thank you Jan for the info and the prayers - so appreciated. (nm)
any info good or bad would be appreciated
on JLG and All Type. Speaking with one, actual offer from the other but not sure about either. Concern for more is flexibility which they both promise, but I heard that one before.
Nice post! It is appreciated! Thanks! :-)

Your kind words are so appreciated.
I sincerely appreciate your so very kind words and you are definitely doing the most important thing, I feel - praying. I do believe in prayer. :) Thank you so very, very much.
I put my life in God's hands each and every day and have for many years now. :) That does not go to say that I am still not scared though for sure. :)
Thank you both!!! Much appreciated. Will relay the info. (nm)

It's nice to feel appreciated
and usually a rare occurrence to get that kind of recognition - good for you !
I appreciated your post just now but dontcha...
I appreciated what you just said in this post about union/organizing/mts....however, I think most of Americans are like this, not just MTs.
In this country, it seems to me (and I'm 3rd-4th generation), it's all about the individual and their pocketbook(s), finding a rare person who does actually think globally or universally.
I feel this way politically too....for 6+ years people are complaining, moaning, and groaning about the govt - but not a single person would challenge same govt, only challenging with words and not actions (not enough actions) - so they will continue to moan and groan, not getting off their duffs and doing anything REAL.
just my nickel's worth.....
