We DO exist, really we do!!

In Reply to: Are there any good MTs left?? - Frustrated

We work long hours.


We glady take the ESLs that others find hard or impossible to transcribe.


We go the extra mile when you are behind to help you get caught up because we all know if the client is not happy, none of us will be making any money. 


We don't need endless emails from your QA telling us where to put a hyphen or a semicolon.  In fact, we probably do not even take up much QA time at all.


Yes, we are out there.  And we are working hard, getting paid a very good cpl rate because our MTSO(s) appreciate us and pay us well.


Here's hoping that when and if, for whatever reason, one of us is looking for a position, we will meet up with you and it will be a MATCH!


You may be able to recognize us by our lack of enthusiasm in our accomplishments.  Because we realize that our resumes speak for us and our tests will stand out.

yes these cases exist, but
in very small number compared with the legitimate serious cases; and the legitimate cases, as another here said, are still just the very TIP of the iceberg.
It dont exist
!
because it doesn't exist either!

The other sites might as well not exist
They are so self censored that they won't give a company's name, so they might as well not exist. MTStars is the best board on the internet for FREEDOM OF INFORMATION. Posters may say that people are negative on this board, but they are honest and realistic. The other boards are so full of Pollyannas they are virtually worthless -- INCLUDING boards you have to pay by the month.


Yes, they exist.. Just sign it and put the past behind you.

But if what they are dictating doesn't even exist.... ? nm

Without the MTs, the site would cease to exist.

To MOMT-to me *normal* does not exist

*normal* means one has a preconceived idea of what *sanity* is....


Everyone has got a story - there is not a family out there that does not have some kind of *story* - crosses all socioeconomic levels too......it's not just an urban blight thing - it has crossed all levels of society/cultures/religions et cetera......I don't need to tell any of you, I'm sure you are all seeing the changes from decade to decade just like the rest of us!  Sad world, indeed. 


The Amish are the most peaceful.....they keep their doors unlocked.  THIS last thing was THE STRAW BREAKING THE CAMEL'S BACK in my mind!!!  Geesh....and a milkman no less.....an area where milk is still delivered to people's doorsteps (I grew up with that happening but haven't seen THAT in decades).  Terrible world, little optimism (what with all these *politics*), very sad, indeed.



Does Cbay still exist? I haven't seen

Corruption does exist in this business.
I recall working for YOG. When it was purchased by MQ, my account suddenly became unrecognizable. It was apparent that one MT was getting the majority of the quick-money work, namely canned reports for a surgeon who did nothing else but. They are the cream of the crop and one day, they suddenly stopped coming to us. It was always the same MT who received them and then, it was clear the jobs were being assigned. Only one MT appeared to increase production and was making a ton of money comparatively speaking.

The rumour of kick backs floated around, with the MT kicking back a portion of their income to the person assigned to job allocation. At the same time, MQ was tweaking the line count. We all watched our incomes decline except for this particular MT.

It would be prudent if managers would observe income levels of individual MTs and if there is a sudden increase or decrease for any length of time that is out of the ordinary, an audit of the account take place by an objective staff member.

Being paid by piece work leaves us all vulnerable to manipulation should the account managers have freedom from scrutiny.

In this case we all were at the mercy of unscrupulous individuals as there was no oversight of the account manager.
There's your proof- zombies exist!
Healthy necrotic tissue.  Yep, must be zombies.  I'll have to remember to tell my hubby, as he loves all things zombie.  HA!!!
In other words - the main board should not even exist then.

It does exist; however, not everyone makes the same. I am paid for my experience and quality. nm

Thanks. Just checking out options in case SE does not exist anymore next year for MQ. I dont really
need benefits and dont really want to be an employee with set hours and the amount of hours you can work. I dont know what part time employee will be because it does not exist now but just checking around. Thanks all. Of course, no one knows what the cpl will be next year for MQ either. I dont know how many hours part time employees are allowed to work and still be considered part time or how they monitor that.
