    I will definitely complain.
    I just joined them end of June and the first pay day is supposed to be July 9. Their accountant made a big excuse about direct deposit system not being in place but I did not enrol in their direct deposit - so I gave them a week.

    Next paycheck is due on the 23rd.

    I plan to look elsewhere --- this is so discouraging.
    For all those who complain about
    THIS is what this is all about. How would you feel if your company was run this way? If you don't work for OSi, stay out of it!!!!!!!!!!!
    If you complain too much.
    They will overhire and then you'll be sitting with no work. Which would you rather have? Do you get 1-1/2 for OT? How do they pay?

    I've been working 6-1/2 to 7 days a week at my present job because of lots of work so I know how you're feeling, but I do have the choice of not working if I don't want to.
    I'll never complain about MQ. nm

    better than normal. don't complain
    many only get 6
    I have never heard anybody complain about
    MTs are not fickle and as you stated in the end, different MTs prefer different types of work and some like variety. I think if they can make money, they are happy with that.

    Why such a negative tone?
    And then they complain about TAXES!!!
    Give me a break.  You should pay double or triple the taxes of someone making 30 to 50,000. 
    AND WE COMPLAIN ABOUT INDIA ...SM


    I would take this as a gross insult if I had 1 year of experience, and I hope this is for VR.  Any MT even considering such an offer, either:


    1.  Is in very dire straits, financially.  2. Doesn't value herself very much.  3. Is doing her fellow MTs, and herself/himself a great disservice.  All this abuse of MTs by the companies is done for one reason:  BECAUSE THEY CAN. (We let them).


     


    I NEVER complain about having too much work

    I love it. I flex and go with the flow. It's refreshing to know we can make up time and hours when it gets busy.


    After working for a place that had no work for days on end and getting deeper into a hole while that company kept telling me the work would pick up (which it never did), I finally left. This company never let you make up hours. What you got, you got.


    I ran out of work yesterday and today on my accounts for the first time since the July 4th holiday, but only have a couple hours to make up and I will do that.


    I'm tired of the TT bashing, too. They're a great company. No complaints from me...EVER.  They bend over backwards to keep everybody happy, but you can never please some people. I think those people wouldn't be happy if they didn't have anything to complain about.


    If no one likes it, they can leave. It leaves more work for me and I'll gladly take it.


    Even with a set up like that some people still complain
    I work with a similar set up only we can see which dictator it is. We are allocated a certain number of jobs at a time(the same for all of us) and you get what you get.

    There have been some people complaining lately (and named me specifically as the cause) that they are not getting enough work. Well, I cannot help it if they choose to work at night and by that time I have done all the work, or most of it.

    There is not much this time of year anyway, I'm getting less than 500 lines a day before it runs out.

    It just irks me that they act like I am stealing their work! This is not a competition for me, its a paycheck.
    I bet you complain about your wages
    And it all can be traced to company waste, not to mention the economy. No time to be wasting money. As I said, this is MY opinion. We are allowed in this country to have freedom of speech and opinions, aren't we?
    Complain when there is work, complain when there is no work.
    x
    if that is the case, then we cannot complain when
    work goes overseas. If clients pay for inferior work, they may as well pay less huh? integrity, integrity, integrity.
    I mean you have NO reason to complain about MW when there are companies like MQ-nm
    nm
    First, newbies complain about the fact
    ...then, when someone does hire them, the whine and cry that the account is too difficult. No wonder MTSOs prefer not to deal with newbies. This is a good way for you to learn.
    If that is all you have to complain about you've got it made. And they

    probably aren't licking the stamps as they just peel and stick them now. 


    Does everyone find any reason to complain? nm

    I put my email at the top up there and no one cares enough to write. They just want to complain
    and tell untruths about this company. Some are a good fit, others not, but the things that I am reading are definitely not true. I would not worry about constant complainers. These people would not fit in anywhere and I am not upper management either nor am I lower management.
    don't complain about how your hospital has too much work - it will bite you in
    the hiney!!!

    You may end up losing your job to an outsource service and end up making less money with horrible benefits!! Count your blessings.
    I'm new to Keystrokes and the pay has been early or on time. Can't complain about that! nm

    Spheris has a private board where we can complain. SM
    It won't help, but we can copmlain. Also, supervisors are quite helpful.

    Seems communication at Transtech is lacking in some way.
    I didn't complain, but got something from both the places I work sm
    My PT job gave me a $30 gift card to target. My FT gave me $25 AMEX gift check. Both were sent in Christmas cards and both cards had been signed by everyone in the office.

    No...not lots, but then I don't need lots. I really loved that ANYTHING was sent and the signed cards were a very nice touch.
    I will. Hope you are right. Not sure who to complain to, but I'll figure it out.

    Its why people complain about negativity on this board
    Some people want to think that the people posting negative things here are just malcontents.  Sometimes, when a person speaks the truth, half a dozen other folks jump on to say its not the truth and everything is roses and rainbows.  Usually the truth is somewhere in the middle.  But some people would prefer to believe the sunshine being blown you-know-where by recruiters because they want to think they have lucked into a goldmine.  Well, its a crap shoot - maybe you did and maybe you didn't.  Each person's truth is going to hit them only after they are working the account.  So if she only wants to hear about the rainbows, let her have her fantasy.  Reality will come soon enough when she gets no paycheck.  Then she can pay her bills with all the rainbows.
    I have one suggestion..If there is no work. MOVE ON..why whine and complain on here EVERY day. I
    agree with Jay. Maybe other people have OTHER things they would like to talk about besides being out of work every day at TransTech. I will say this.. with that much controversary and unhappy there, I would never work there and neither should you if your so miserable. Obviously, something is really wrong with that picture. Now, move on.. You can do better.
    I didn't view it as a forum to complain. I saw it more as a chance to get to know sm

    others who work for the same company.  Working at home can feel kind of isolating at times.  I do not miss the commute to work, scraping ice off of my car in the winter, backstabbing, gossip, etc., but I sometimes do miss the social aspects of working in an office.   I guess my viewpoint is, things are what you make them to be. 


    I love Transtech and have been a cheerleader for a long time, even to the point of being accused of being management.  They have stuck with me through some bad times on my end, and I have no intention of dumping them through these bad times now, although I have gotten a couple of other jobs.  With the holidays coming up, especially, it may take all 3 to make ends meet and maybe have a few extras, but that is just part of life.   



    As a MTSO, why would he/she feel the need to come to a public board and complain? Unprofessional in

    Does your company start with a T... If so, I feel your pain and it does no good to complain. No one
    cares. Tell me how you go from over 200 jobs in a queue to nothing in a few hours. Hmmmm. I smell offsourcing. Not happy. I just got a second job and thank goodness. It will save me when there is no work which is too often for my liking.
    Couldn't agree more! I don't hear other ExText client MT's complain about

    Nada...... Can't complain though, great line rate is worth no extra gifts at X-mas. nm
