Not sure where to put this question, this is first time I've had comment/question on this web site so sorry if this is in wrong place :)  I'm wondering about all these comments that sound like the people have already received and read this MT/ME packet that aren't supposed to be mailed out until sometime next week?  Have some people already received them?  thanks :)

I am keeping my fingers crossed.  There have been many, many changes in how transcription was done since I first began.  In fact, in the old days there was no working at home and I have to admit I am old enough to remember doing this with carbon sets and having to correct several pages if you made a typo. 

I am hoping that whatever changes are coming about in the industry that I can adapt and find a way to make it work for me for just 11 more years then I can sit back and bask in the sunshine of retirement with my hubbie.

Were these packets individualized as mentioned days ago on this post?

What is the scoop on getting the 18 days of PTO?  Info I have seen says "up to 18 days" is this based on the 150 per line/40 hour week classification or do you have to do more than that to qualify for the full 18 days? 

On the incentive, so I get that it's 1 cpl for 1200 lines per day and goes up from there.  Would you be willing to post the scale of how it goes up from there?  Or if that's too much, say for example one types 1800-2000 lines a day...what's the incentive amount for that range?

Thanks for the info, trying to learn SOMETHING that will help me put a positive spin on where this is going!!

do not feel compelled to answer an e-mail that has other MT names in it.  If it is directed right at you, then answer when you get the chance.  Don't feel nailed to the computer. 

Now if they are using IM, that is a different story.  Instant messenger is control in my honest opinion and as an IC should not be part of the deal. 

If you know your accounts in and out you may want to stay and just ignore some of the e-mails that get you hot and bothered.

I also am an IC for an online company that does mass e-mails when there is work to be done, but it is not directed right at me but to all MTs on that particular account.  I do not feel the need to answer each and every e-mail unless I am the only addressee.  Of course, you may not know if they are blind copying, but just my opinion.

they are using but it has never gotten to me under 10 days and like I said that's after being mailed late the day of payday.  So now when others tell me they mail their paychecks, I either turn down the job or  don't even bother testing for the job.  I am not in a position to be paid like that.  I think that's the case for most people at the moment.

However, I am still looking.

and xeroxing as if you were sitting there with no work.

I would not take less than 1.25. Just my opinion though.

If the higher ups are telling you they are getting 20 accounts, they are probably counting each dictator on one account!  Would that make sense!  I'm being sarcastic.  Is it working?  LOL  Think, people, think!!!  LOL  - laughing at this whole thread.  It is hysterical!  I LOVE THIS BOARD!!!   

If Keystrokes was so fantabulous, they wouldn't need to post on here to hire!!!!!!! 

Our goal is to steadily increase offshore volume although to the extent that our

revenue grows rapidly it could certainly be a challenge to increase the

percentage of our total volume that we’re processing offshore

I found the above from the lengthy meeting notes from July 29 of this year.  It is at the top paragraph of page 6. Transcend wants to offshore.  There's no stopping them.
