so go ahead....You standing on your soap box here is not going to make a bit of difference but you go right ahead. I'd sooner just dig in and get the job done - I do QA too and I've seen horrible and I've seen good -and I've seen exceptional - I prefer to think positive but you do your own thing

Begging pardon!
It is NOT the only way for them to compete. That is total and utter BS!! It is just a better way for them to satisfy their GREED!

You are just BEGGING to be tossed out
not to mention how clueless you are. Perhaps if you work for a group of docs..but if your work is coming from surgery centers, clinics, etc...YOU are indeed clueless because as administrators change (AND THEY ALWAYS DO) the first agenda is cost cutting and to see 15 cpl going out for transcription when ABC Co down the street will come and do it for 10-12 CPL...you will lose accounts..

Newbies are begging for jobs at 6 cpl or they

So sad isn't it? I agree that the companies do not pay what they should, but they get away with it because more and more want to stay at home right off and not get the experience they need so they can go the bargaining table with a handful of ACE's, if you know what I mean.

My co. was begging for MTs to work July 4th -

- so I stayed home, and can see a ton of work listed, yet my job list is EMPTY!

I hate when this happens! They cry for backlog to be caught up, yet we can't get to it to do it. Meanwhile, ANOTHER holiday wasted in front of the PC waiting for work.

With used to have this problem all the time with the owner begging us to put in at least a few sm
lines for someone else within the year, when we were really her employees, just with no benefits. The IRS could have made big trouble for her. We had to work for at least one other person/company or would not be considered ICs, but employees.

Why on earth are you begging him for work when he doesn't pay on time? nm

At least you "twiddle." Initially, I develop laryngitis from begging
