my ShortHand would type only the first letter of an expansion and then take all the letters away!  I checked and the Type It button is grayed out!  I have restarted the computer and looked on the Shorthand Help menu but can find nothing that applies.  Can anyone please help me ASAP?  I am lost without it!  TIA

Actually there seems to be tons of work on the account I am on, but I just can't get my line count up.  I know I am doing quality work, just not quantity, and would rather quit than be fired!  It seems like for the first hour everything is great then every report I get is a different dictator.  Just can't get the hang of their Ex-Text system fast enough either.  At my other job, which is online based through FTP, I did about 300 lines/hour during my shift last night, so I am really not THAT slow :) 

I did e-mail my resignation this morning but still have not heard back...At this point, I don't even want to finish in 2 weeks, Just want to be done wasting everyone's time. 

What's wrong is not on your end.

What's wrong is each of those 5 accounts having 17 people on each of them who have to switch back forth and maintain productivity.

Production and TAT improve if the MT is on one acount long enough to get a rhythm going.

There is also the problem of recognizing doctor's names. If 4 different doctors are mentioned in your report and you are on 5 different hospitals....well, you know where I'm going with this one.....

ughhh

have. This situation is getting extremely serious for people that need to make a living. What a shame.

I'm skeptical about DQS today.  I have the option of working for one employer running the DQS platform, or my second job with another company, which is not on DQS. 

Since there are no updates from the supervisors, I don't want to log in unless there's a reason.  I'm in the south region. 

I think the idea of the time for posting re this stuff is a good idea.  It's 1:00 PM CST here.

Thanks.

The cover story should be posted on their online site within a month or so for those who do not receive the printed version as well. 

But this article states it would only affect new customers right now.  So I am upset over nothing.  I went through heck with BellSouth when they charged me a surcharge of an extra 50 a month and then would write a letter saying I had to switch to a long distance service and pay by the minute because of my "excessive" use. They told me the unlimited charge was for an average of an hour a day not somebody who worked out of their home and I needed to switch a business plan at over 200 a month charge.  I switched over to cable because of that and then to read that cable was going to charging on a per use fee and not a flat monthly fee it upset me.  It is the nature of our work, VR, only paying for VBC, having headers and footers taken away, now being charged for being on line, etc.  It just seems that everything is done to keep to insure less money.
