That was with full benefits, which are the same benefits as an in-office employee for the QA staff..
However, I hear that their current QA staff are being asked to reach numbers that are out of sight and goals are basically impossible.
IC positions offer no benefits, employee positions off full benefits, so if you do not need
benefits, then IC would be best.
I don't buy that. Benefits should be part of being an employee. sm
Why else would one want to be an "employee" and be required to work certain hours if not for the benefits. I work for a mid-sized company, and we get paid for stated holidays plus PTO. We must ask for the day off, but we get paid either way. If we choose to work the holiday, we get holiday plus plus our line rate pay. However, I don't find our PTO generous since sick time, downtime, and vacation time is all rolled into PTO.
What if you are employee.. but no benefits, no paid vacation

What are the benefits of working as a statutory employee?

Your post doesnt make much sense. Were you

variables: clinic v. acute, employee (benefits) v. IC (pay taxes);

What about benefits? I make 50k a year working for a company
out of my home full time. No gas money, no traveling, no printing, faxing, and I get full benefits. How is making 50000 as an MTSO good money? I really just don't get it!
I make over 9 cpl with Spheris as employee.
z
I make more than that as an employee for a small company ---
Maybe it is time to change to that?
well, of course you make more with your own accounts cuz you're not employee
nm
Wow! I do 1600 lines daily and make only 9.5 cpl as employee-
SE is that without benefits.
What MQ office do you work for? Are they hiring.
I'm sorry I didn’t make myself clear. As an employee I can only work 40 hours per week (sm)
Overtime has to be approved by manager. I have always been an SE and could work as many hours as I wanted to, such as when I had a day of bad dictators I could work until I got my daily line count. Just wondering if all states had this law. I am working in CA.
The bottom line is doesnt matter what they pay if there is no work you make no money. Bottom line.

Excuse me but federal taxes are paid as employee by employee
The ONLY difference in IC is you pay the ENTIRE amount of the SS which is the 15.25%, as an employee you only pay 7.75%. And you can easily make up that difference in deductions. As an employee you just have someone else manage your withholdings and as an IC you do it yourself. I have much more usable income being an IC and not an employee and I am strict about putting aside what I need to. But everyone always says you have to pay your own taxes, well your employer does not PAY them for you -- except 7.75% of SS, they merely withhold it for you. As an IC you are the employer.
I think I would look for another job. Doesnt seem right

No doesnt sound harsh
I agree with you to an extent about threatening with that, and I have informed family members that could be done if he does not get help and endangers them in some way. They of course say they know, I think they are trying to handle it without hurting the kids any further. He has not physically hurt them just scared them which is bad enough! Thanks
High IQ doesnt = good MT.

Link doesnt say if this can be done at home.

Above poster doesnt know how to use antibark
My dogs quickly learned when they had collar on and what that meant. They didn't bark. Take collar off when you want them to alert you. Believe me, they know the difference between collar on and collar off. Mine even knew the difference between dead battery and charged battery. When they would bark with collar on, I knew it was tiime for recharge.
Then hope your boss here doesnt end up

Consulting dr. doesnt say but says he thinks

9pin doesnt work for me
There are issues with it stopping and starting. The USB works best in V8. I work in V8 and V6 still so I have both pedals :(
I still use 2. It looks better and doesnt get confused with abbr. periods.
I wouldnt change to 1 unless the AAMT Book of Style rules on it and I dont believe they have. I could be wrong on that. If anyone knows, please let me know.
Another thing I have noticed people doing is not putting a comma before the and in a list. I was always taught to use the comma but some people dont.
advil doesnt touch mine
I used to get this all the time it drove me crazy. It felt like a constant burning band. I was hold my arms up by my neck and shoulder. Is there anyway you can find something to support your arms while you type? I bought a chair with arms, and i put a 2 x 4 board across the arms and rest my elbows on that and let my fingers do the work, not my neck. I also have a split keyboard. When the pain was severe, like yours, I would get up and put a warm wash cloth and sort of massage it into my neck every couple of hours while stretching, and then apply some icy hot so it really penetrated into it. As a poster stated, xanax works and anything that relaxes the muscles, Soma, or Flexeril, ativan, buspar (antianxiety), on top of the massage, heat n stretches. I also cut out the coffee and sugar because i'm an anxious person and I clench constantly. That should get you through until you find away to rest the arms while working. I know with this job, one part of our body will suffer, either arms, wrists or hand joints, even neck and shoulder. I wish they'd invent something to take the strain off of every muscle for us gals who have to sit here day after day! Anyways, I feel your pain, hang in there.
Is there any spyware you can use that doesnt interfere with all your other programs at all. I have
XP and service pack 2 etc etc just about all the programs you can have and Norton so dont know if they have Spyware in them or not. I have office also.
I wouldnt go get him. Just treat him tonight even if he doesnt have it
That may keep him from getting it. Head lice is a nuisance but not hard to get rid of. I wouldnt sweat it. You should change their sheets, etc...
I disagree...just because you are in a certain profession doesnt mean you cant have time off..sm
My mom has been an RN for over 40 years now and I have several family members in some of the other professions you mentioned above. A certain profession does not mean you have to work certain days/holidays. If you have vacation time you are entitled to use it whenever you wish. I used to work in a physicians office for 10 years and I always put my vacation time in for my two weeks in December in January. Other employees put their time in for summer. So while they are out having fun with their time off in July I am not crying and moaning because they are having fun in the sun while I work to cover them. It is the same thing no matter when your time off is scheduled. It has nothing to do with what field you work in. If you want time off at Christmas be a little more organized and schedule your time off way in advance. And no I dont think I am the only one with a family who would like to be off for the holidays. I just make it a priority to take my vacation at that time. You enjoy your time when you want and I will enjoy my time when I want.
What would be fair line rate if co. doesnt pay
Does it really make a ton of difference in your pay?
XMTSO doesnt care where you are going to work or what they

My MTSO doesnt care if use cc or mL, just be consistent.

that doesnt sound right. I have downloaded mine I know 5 times
Maybe you should talk to a different person.
You should be able to download the player again with your password. I have had mine for 5 years and never had any problem reinstalling it. I know I have installed mine 5 times.
I think they will see these newbies run faster and harder than we ever did if something doesnt suit.

Do you honestly think MQ doesnt send work to India, etc.

I guess it depends on which office you get switched to now doesnt it.

Why dont you stick your $1.18 where the sun doesnt shine lady.

I think it is a 65 character line without spaces but doesnt that mean you have to type a lot more to
get your lines in so you really arent making 9.5 cpl in fact right. I am not sure I understand when you dont get paid for spaces how much you really lose from that. Is it 20% a report or what percentage do you lose. If a report is 100 lines with spaces then what do you really get paid for on those 100 lines without spaces. I think that is what I mean. I am just tring to figure out how much longer you have to work to get your lines in at 1000 lines a day without spaces versus 1000 lines a day with spaces. Seems it would take quite a bit longer.
maybe she doesnt read comic strips but she has her head in the clouds
you are one of those who thinks their kids can do no wrong. right? It doesnt matter WHAT SHE DID, it doesnt give someone the right to KILL HER!!!!!!!!! Hello!!!!!! It doesn't mean her parents were bad parents. HELLO. Judge not!!!!!!!
I dont agree with any of the things you are saying here but I moved on so it doesnt matter.
You an IC, statutory employee or employee?
That designation, and/or forcing the IRS to designate you, can make a diff. Are you a corporation? Partnership? You need WAY more help than we can give you.
If you are employee, unless suit against your employee
otherwise the posts on here as far as I can see telling it like it is. I think a lot of the posts are so young they just don’t have a clue as to what it means to be an employee. You do as your employee wants (I am talking reason now, not stupidity as far as sexual advances, etc) or else you find another company that fits your personality better. You do not confront, you do not tell your employee no, that is their job, not yours. This is such a simple thing for people who have been in the work force for any period of time.
a different room doesnt matter to a dirty old man "Been there done that" they dont care where
They still try. As long as they think they are "alone". Privacy is not a good thing in dealing with a pervert. Even if there are people in another room. You could scream but it would still be a situation I dont think she wants to be in.
