DELL XPS - it kicks A - - ! (nm)
:)
Bayscribe kicks ExText's booty, imho. SM
I have worked on both. Bayscribe only has the 1 page on which you enter information. There are dropdown lists of providers (no additional lists or documents), you can easily change templates at any point in the report, and the only shortcoming to Bayscribe that I have found is the spellchecker, which works okay but could use some updating.
ExText, on the other hand, had multiple pages per report, no way to easily access provider information, changing a template required a bunch of steps, etc. etc. I never did make much progress with ExText, although I know that some of my friends love it.
It may be what you're used to, although I think it would have been a lot easier to start with ExText and move to Bayscribe than it was for me to start with Bayscribe and then move to ExText. Bayscribe is also fast to load and fast to work in-- no VPN.
Hope this helps.
Our Meditech connects through a Citrix server, and kicks us off, freezes up, doesn't allow log on
If the system has a lot of users on, then it lags. You hit the keys but the letters don't appear right away. Try doing the backspace key with that. It does not have a word Expander and only certain ones will work with it. ShortHand does but some of the others do not. It has archaic functions. The patient demographics are entered separately from the body of the report, so you don't get paid for those lines. It takes multiple key strokes to make font changes, etc.
But other than that, it is fine LOL

love to get some really nice hand/body lotion, either in their favorite fragrance or something scented from a specialty shop. They usually sell for maybe $18-20 and that's just too much $$ to spend on our own hand creams! Either that or scented bubble baths, soaps, etc.
I give things like that to my friends all the time and I have one friend who has now actually come to expect a bottle of her favorite lotion every Xmas. :)
You and everybody else are looking for same thing, me included. nm

You need to know if spaces are included, then ... sm
divide your character count by 55 based on the with spaces or without spaces. It should come out exactly as your company figures. With it being 55 characters, I would almost bet you are not paid for spaces. Are you dividing the number of words by 55 or the number of characters without spaces by 55?
You should be able to come right out and ask the company the formula they use; if its not something you can recreate in a word document to verify, they are cheating you somewhere.
QA Submissions not included!
QA submissions nare not included either! LOL! Happy holidays!
Will that be entirely VR or any straight included?
NM
If you're not American, then how would you know. If you, you just included yourself
nm
Yes, lots of software was included.
Unfortunately, Word was not included though. 
Thanks for the input anyway. 
It would mean NO spaces included if it's only the B/W characters. Better ask for sure! nm
s
Hmm...will check this out. I know spaces are not included.
Thanks for responding. I will e-mail her tomorrow and find out what is up.
did you read the site I included....sm
in my post just below? tipping dot org keeps up with all the rules of tipping. www.tipping.org
MS Word is included in MS Works now sm
What Dell probably met was that MsWorks includes a full version of MS Word. It's the less expensive way to get Word without having to buy Ms Office. The student version of MS Office cannot be upgraded, btw, so don't get that.
Should've included the website...

Addendum: Batteries not included.
OMG... I feel even better now. I was looking at the back of the box and it said you need a AAA battery. Wow... I thought the sound was great before --- that was without the battery which I did not even notice because of the design of the headphones. Now, for the first time in 9 years working for MQ I am proud to say that I had to turn the volume DOWN. Too loud...hurt my ears...ooww. LOL Glad I was able to exchange my MQ stock for something useful... a pack of 2 AAA batteries for my new headphones.... Life is good.

Anyone with TransTech
How long does it take you to get your 1100 lines, on average. Also, how strict are they with you about sticking 100% to your hours.
TIA
TransTech
No work lately.
TransTech
I have been with Transtech for a little over 1-1/2 years and it works great for me.
TransTech
Anyone know anything about this company. They sure do sound "good". Anyone who can give some insight please post, especially if you are currently with TransTech.
TransTech
I have just been offered a position with this company. Could you tell me if the full-time employees really make 11,000 lines a PP? Also what kind of platform do they use. I have heard that the ExText one is not so good. I have not done MT for a year or so, so I've been out of the loop for awhile. I REALLY need an honest answer on this company as there are other companies that look good also. As you said, they looked very good. I talked to the recruiter and everything sounds SO wonderful, almost TOO good to be true. PLEASE HELP ME DECIDE. The 11,000 lines a day sounds ludicrous to me as I have NEVER made that many lines with any company/account I worked for.
TransTech
Could you tell me a little about it. Do you really make 11,000 lines a PP. Is it an easy account to do given the recruiter says they have a lot of interns that come and go. I REALLY want to take the job offer, but I'm SO afraid I'll end up with a company that is really hard and demanding and is hard to get a good line account. ANYTHING you could tell me would be most appreciated as it would save me SO much work looking at other companies first before I give her my answer. I TRULY NEED YOUR HELP ASAP as she was SO nice, but now I'm seeing other companies that look good too. I need a company that will supply the PC and everything and most of them don't. That is one of the reasons I liked Transtech also.

Try TransTech
You cannot go wrong with them.
I did with TransTech.
They told me about 3 times via email that they would call me the next day. I kept following up and finally I got a call the third time that was 3 days later than stated in the email. The person was very friendly and apologetic, but I couldn't wait around 2 weeks to hear from them, so I ended up somewhere else. I don't regret my choice either after having interviewed with them. The pay was not good. They did offer benefits, but since I don't need them, I'd rather have the $$$.
Yep, MQ and Transtech NM

is anyone currently working at transtech
Wonderful people in Houston, yourself included!
Wonderful to know there are such caring folks out there.
Board names or not, some people, myself included...
don't care to discuss what they make. Why should we? It is such an individual thing and based on so many factors that is is impossible to draw any meaningful conclusions.
The type of work, as well as the MTs experience, ability to research effectively, retention and overall knowledge and intelligence, self-discipline (and much more) are variable, to say the least.
What others make is totally irrelevant to what someone else may make.
Yeah, I'm annoyed that QA wasn't included! sm
I so respect QA because they usually fill in all my blanks and I sometimes am in AWE of just how they do that when I relisten to all blanks several times. My one QA lady also I absolutely think is the best because she communicates so well with us.....and seeks us out to do just that and give us feedback.
Next year, I'll bet, they WILL honor QA!!!!!!! (if I have anything to say about it!!)
Thank you so much! The Shorthand instructions included with my version

Sorry you are so disgruntled but many of us, myself included, are still making money...
there have been changes but I am still making great money so I have no complaints...good luck to you though
I get Sirrus/XM included through my digital TV package,
So I just play it through the home theater system. It rocks
In my case, it was TransTech. I went with them
because they were the only company that I could not find a negative post about on this board. Live and learn.
TransTech computer
When they hired me they didn't have a computer to send me right away so I said that I wouldn't mind using my own since I have 2 personal computers. Okay, so J phoned me to set me up and worked and worked with it and like you, couldn't get the program to work properly. He even told me he would call me back and called Dictaphone himself and he DID call me back. By that time I was just getting frustrated and *I* asked him to please just wait and send me a company computer when one was available, which if I remember correctly they either located one for me that day or the next. But he was never in any way discourteous while trying to get my computer to work. In the 2 years I've worked for them I have had very few problems and when I have had a problem I would call the office and either get J or T immediately or one or the other always called me back within no more than 10 minutes and both have ALWAYS just been so very pleasant. If you're really interested, I think it wouldn't hurt to have a conversation with Deb, she is a wonderful, wonderful person and believe me, she really CARES about her MTs.
TransTech in Texas does them. nm

TransTech does. I think the ST will work with it. nm

Did you mean DSG and TransTech pay LOWER than 8.5??

Anyone who works at Transtech
have you been getting a lot of reports on a certain account that have been under a minute for the past couple of days, like echos, stress tests, etc. I have been getting these like nonstop for the past 2-3 days. I guess I shouldn't complain because it IS work, but I get so annoyed with these piddly little dictations that take more time to set up for than to actually type them. It's really killing my line count. Am I alone or are others experiencing this?
Not at TransTech, They are/were all MTs. Even the owner used to be an MT. One of the
things I really respect most about this company actually. All supervisors, managers, leads and even the owner used to be MTs. I think the only ones who weren't are the IT staff.
Hmm, guess I shouldn't have included bird and humans. nm

Just accept that it is you opinon and let it rest. We all read all of the posts, yours included sm
and all taken into account.
Mouse included in the package lit up right after battery insertion. No on lights
come on when the batteries are inserted and power button doesn't do a thing. Power isn't being transmitted to keyboard for some reason.
If have worked for TransTech for two years,
you undoubtedly know that Debbie and J go way back and used to work together at another company (reference a recent email you should have received from T, the new president that states that she, J, S, and D all worked together before TransTech). I received an email from Debbie stating that she was sorry I was dissatisfied with tech support, but that they had never ever had any complaints about them before mine. Kind of shows me where I stand in all of this. Many times when managers and tech support are friends, it's the MTs who suffer.
what is your experience with Transolutions and Transtech
Do they keep their promises, primary account stability, start out at least 9 cpl, supervisors easy to get ahold of, etc.
