I feel people who feel like this post
needs to a) either be a stay at home mother and not work or b) realize that she is no queen bee and I could care less about a degree. What company out here that you know of compensates for having a degree? Means nothing to them. Your working and being there when they assign/need/require/whatever is what you should do IF YOU WANT A JOB in this field, otherwise get out and do something else or become that babysitter.
Some days I feel so mentally bored I wonder if I am losing my mind. nm

I have removed negative posts made by those who seem to feel the need to
Christmas by making crude comments about something fun we do every year at Christmas time.
Because some people don't mind it?? nm

Wow. After reading all of these sad situations and posts I actually feel pretty blessed. I did sm
Have my car repoed about 8 years ago and it was the most embarrassing moment of my life. I've since come out of a rut with me working and having a husband who works FT. We are blessed. We have definitely struggled with our bank acct. being overdrawn to the tune of 700.00 before, but we luckily came out of that and it only happened once. To everyone who is in a dire situation, may you find grace and peace in God. Believe in miracles. Don't give up. Good luck to you and I mean that in all sincerity.
Don't put people down like you did in your posts, eh? sm
"MS in BS" ring any bells?

From reading these posts, these QA people are scary....

I have been reading some posts about people using AutoCorrect and ESP...sm
I use my ESP constantly and couldn't live without it. I add several daily and have been doing so for years. Why would I use AutoCorrect also? I am wondering if I am missing out on some added benefit. Could someone explain please? Much appreciated!
Wow, SnowBunny, you hit the nail on the head. It blows my mind how people think they can
just take a course and jump right in and expect to make a living in this industry at home.  Only the small percentage is able to do that.
Can anyone see the posts? People are posting replies. Wonder if it is everyone who is having probl
??
No wonder smart people try to hide it from all the not-so-smarts, if all these posts are any indicat

Why do so many people LOVE operative notes? I see posts about it all the time...
how they make good money on them, they could do them all day, feel cheated when they don't get them? I have been doing this for years and years and still kind of groan when I see them come up on my screen. Fill me on the secrets and maybe I won't whine so much when I do them. Thanks gal!
Wow...now I don't feel so bad! People...
always look at me all funny when they know how many animals I have. We had another rat, but she passed away. They are a lot of work though. Does yours stay in the house?
Why do people on here feel the need to be
Maybe, just maybe, there are people who just want to vent after hours of ignorant statements and horrific grammar.
Nah, some people just feel the need to show off. sm
Dressing babies like that is expensive! Personally, if I ever get around to having kids, my babies will be in onesies till they outgrow them, and then it's OshKoshB'Gosh overalls after that, lol.
I think that when people feel the need to exalt themselves
Just my opinion. Lifting yourself up to others only makes you look prideful and haughty. If you are wonderful at everything, you don't HAVE to tell people, they will KNOW without you saying a word.
what some people have to do to feel good about themselves

"What do you all do when you have to type an expletive?  I am working on an account where this comes up often.  I refuse to type the actual expletive so I usually just put (expletive) and go on.  No one has ever said anything, but I was curious as to what everyone else does."


That was my ORIGINAL POST.  I wanted to know what any other MT in the field did regarding expletives.  I didn't ask you to judge my character.  I didn't need anyone telling me to "put my big girl panties on."  All I was looking for was for you all to tell me what you did in that situation.  I guess it makes you feel good to pound on a person rather than address the inital question - if that's what you need to do, then so be it.  I am not new to the field.  Been an MT for over 10 years and have never typed an expletive, though it hasn't come up often.  Found this board and am mostly a lurker and thought I would finally run it by some others.  Should have just kept it to myself.  No wonder I like being an MT - you don't have to deal with other people very often.


Go ahead and feed the piranhas if that's what gets you through your day.


It is going to be very interesting to see how you people feel once your office is closed and you are
moved into a regional office on DQS and find that there are tons of other MTs on the accounts you always had. It is coming for everyone so you might be singing another song as time goes on. Enjoy it while you can. Time are changing.
I feel for them but more so for the people on the MS Gulf Coast who are still in tents sm
its cold here now (27 degrees this a.m.) and some people are STILL sleeping in tents behind the truck stops. :(
I think people with higher IQs actually frequently feel insecure,
and people who razz them or put them down. It's not hard to get a complex about something that personal when people get down on you for something you can't help, and had nothing to do with creating. God-given gift. And then when people FLAME you for it, it hurts. And you go back into "turtle" mode and get a job as a Transcriptionist because machines don't bite.
I would feel like people would think I was an infertile woman turning my cat into a baby.

I feel bad for the people in Colorado and Wyoming who had so much wind and cold
weather.  This would be worse than a hurricane because if your roof blows off, you are in severe sub-0 temperatures with blowing snow.  No way to get any kind of help, and no way to stay warm. 
psychic
Yes - I have had many psychic experiences since the age of 9. Just in the past 2 weeks I have had 2 - the usually involve either a death or a birth. Because of my birth predictions, several women have asked me to predict their labor dates - all which have been correct. I am a Christian, so I do have a problem with this sort of thing - as the Bible says not to even dabble in anything of the occult - however, one person explained it to me this way - that I was in touch with my feelings and the feelings and experiences of others - so as to help them, somewhat of the Lord laying them on my heart - I rarely tell anyone of my predictions any longer as it causes me so much stress and really messed me up when I was a teenager. The only thing that I can say with certainty is that when the seasons change - the 2weeks before and the 2 weeks after - there are more deaths than at other times of the year. This has happened over and over in my family, as well as with my friends. Check out your family Bible if you record deaths and see how many happen around the changing of the seasons.
Sounds like exactly how I feel. MQ has a tremendous amount of unhappy people and could care less.

again with the psychic abilities
felt about "noble hopes?" Nope. Nada. Nyet.

When everything is said and done, I am responsible for myself. You are responsible for yourself. IF either of us were to chose to be in a position of helping others, that is a different level of responsibility. Again, I did not address how I personally feel about it, what I've done in the past, do presently or plan for the future, and I won't do it in this post, either.

Jeesh, this is wearisome. Please find a hobby, leave the profession, or get some professional help - better yet, get a MySpace web page as your personal podium.
You have to be psychic to be treated.

People expect the groomer to do anal glands. They feel that is part of what they are paying for.

last nite on TV they showed a psychic's....sm

I didn't think it was Karr, UNTIL they showed on CNN last night a picture/drawing from a psychic from 1996-1997 and they held the drawing up next to Karr's picture last night and they look identical.


Too bad it took 10 years to bust this case open


It would probably take a psychic detective unless there was a witness.

Ah, Hayseed, it's one of my psychic days......sm
Did I forget to mention that? LOLOLOL You are just tooooo funny!
Nah.. again I say.. give up pretending to be a psychic. You do not have a clue.

You need to give up your psychic friends business and toss your magic 8 ball.

Your mind was in the gutter up there with sauteed stool, too. Would you please take your mind out of

Just do a search and read the posts. There are plenty of posts about OSI on this board. nm.

if you live among trashy people, low income people, people w/o goals or direction,
content to just get by, you by default become a part of a group. "people" have decided to group trailer people as trash. that is because there are enough people in that group to earn the title and even if you aren't trash, you are categorized by others. did i think i was trash in lower class neighborhood surrounded by people who drank and fought all weekend? no but i knew i wasn't staying and did not try to pretend that all the fools in the neighborhood were just nice folks who ended up where they were because high horse snobs deemed their neighborhood low class. people for the most part live exactly where they belong because they don't want to educate themselves, they don't mind "trash" around them and they don't want to be bothered trying just a bit hard to extract themselves from that world. they justify everything to themselves i guess saying everyone who doesn't like their lifestyle is a snob and the comedians (Jeff Foxworthy/Chris Rock, etc) who make fun of them are just ill-informed.

As for me, I fought hard to get out and don't even want to look back. It amazes me people stay for generations.
Um have you read any of your posts and the other posts? I think everyone DOES believe me..you

if you feel like that after 12 years, and I feel like that after six months
what hope is there?
so many people was wishy-washy nowadays...love to see people make
a stand for what they believe in...

it is kind of wierd those statements have to be made in the first place but guess we are an ever-transitioning country and are still young. so many different beliefs yet not much tolerance.

I found your post respectful, and right on as to how you feel. it does not seem that difficult to sift through to read and respond to messages someone might not care for...
No need to feel badly for me - feel badly for an adult who has no control of his/her own life!
I hope these people didn't produce any daughters! Bad, bad example!
Just remember that it is not the people on this board who short changed their people and ONLY after
caught did they (after they were suied) make an effort to look good by sending out these checks. Now, think about this--had they done this many years ago when they short changed everyone, that would have been honest. Does it not bother you that only after they know they are under the gun that they are doing this to try and make themselves look good?

I used to work for MQ and I used to like what I did. I never can say I really liked the people that I worked with, but I really think they had some of the best accounts that I have ever come across in the MT industry. I loved working the major teaching hospitals that I did, but that certainly does not mean that I enjoyed being cheated out of pay.

So chill already. People have been cheated, were lied to, and only AFTER they got caught have they tried to return some of the money they robbed us of (as well as cheated their clients).

We all have reasons not to be happy with this company and you go off on us because we are complaining of things like small refund checks of a penny or a few cents or a few hundred dollars and NO WAY to even check to find out if this is correct?

I am sorry you are unhappy all of us thinking that there is still a dead rat in the cellar, but there is still a dead rat in the cellar and nothing will bring the dead rat back.

I would hold no love for a company that I know willingly cheated the very people who helped THEM make money out of their hard-earned money.

Go take a deep breath and think about that.
My people skills are just fine. I just want to hire people who want to work.
I've not been ugly, I've asked questions, legitimate ones.  Please tell me what is wrong with that.  This site is not just for MTs, it is for QA Editors, Supervisors, Service Owners, there's even sections for Billers, Coders, and Nurses.   
rude people? I would take good pay over polite people any day
Besides that they have never been rude to me and I have been here for almost 2 years. What do you consider a bad account?

I know my account is a little tough, but I am used to it. I am tough!
Rude people? I hardly think so. They are some of the nicest people I have ever worked with. sm
Not just management, but QA as well. No one is rude. They are a very understanding staff. There is one account that is hard but all it takes is getting used to it. Once you are used to it, it is no harder than any other ESL account that you would do anyplace else. I have heard all these things about TH from the archives and I have yet to come across rudeness or any kind of thing that I have read about in the archives. I would definitely pursue them if I were you. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
2 people to do that amount of work, is she nuts? More like 20+ people - nm

Certain people getting raises, certain people not. Guess who is?
Say what you will about unions, the good and the bad. But, one thing they did ensure is a raise, good benefits and that you would have a job in the morning.


Would you mind ...
sharing that site with me? You can email me personally at kathy.eberle@gmail.com. I did get that very email and would like to know what everyone else has to say! Thanks!

Kathy
LOL! Never mind - I see it now.
I was sure it wasn't there a minute ago! 
Keep in mind, please......
That if a company has more than, say, 10 accounts, that the recruiters just might not KNOW how difficult an account is. When you get a requisition for account #67, there's no telling whether it's the best account on the planet, or the worst.
Don't mind
Actually don't mind the lower income right then, because I am selling my house and can afford to lose a little, knowing that after the first of the year or so I can get my line count back up.
keep in mind
In addition to the good comments made above you must also be aware that if you are going to a program that may upgrade occasionally and is not static you may well run the risk of losing your autotext entries.  If you are really good about backing up your files, good for you and no problems really, but if you are like the rest of us and forget more than you remember to back up .. you could have one horrible day when you see the file not convert or some such ugly thing!
