I didn't care 4 that crack, missy!

Crack me up

Just because you post a response to a question about a company does not mean you are automatically a "cheerleader" for that company.  Sure there are some out there, but some of us actually have nice things to say about our companies.  Is that wrong?  Also, if someone defends their company, it doesn't mean they are management or "gossip control" and not everyone that posts a positive remark about company is reporting directly the the CEO of that company. 


Some MTs are fortunate and lucky enough to like their jobs with their companies.  I applaud them, as most of us know that is hard to find these days.


You crack me up, too.

OMG you crack me up constantly

Thanks for the laugh!


People like you crack me up
MS size=2>

We DO pay double or triple the taxes you pay! Are you that clueless?


And people like you think that because my husband sacrificed much of his young adult life to get a GOOD education, get a GOOD job and keep it for the past 20 years, working his way up the corporate ladder to the job he has *earned*... you think we should be penalized for this and pay your share of taxes too, right?


This is America, land of opportunity.  If you chose to waste your opportunity and settle for a mediocre life of barely scraping by, that was your choice. I know because I made the same choice myself.  I didn't want to go to college, and now I'm paying for it with my mediocre job of being an MT. I am fortunate to have a husband who worked very hard to provide for us and we enjoy a comfortable income.  We have the right to complain about taxes because we pay a TON more than you do.  But people like you have to say snotty things because you are miserable with your own life.


 


Shelly, you crack me up. You stated before you

cannot make enough money working for a service so you work full time at a local facility and part time for Transcend.  If these programs were so wonderful, you should be able to make wonderful money on them so you would not need 2 jobs. 


RE: Shelly, you crack me up. You stated before you
I prefer to work outside of the home. For me, interaction with real people is more important, that is why I work two jobs, and my part-time job is just that, part-time.
These smileys crack me up! They are soooo funny! nm

While we pound our brains out until our backs ache and our wrists crack and pop
The trend toward more and more hospitals hiring for work-at-home MTs is helping and if they'd all go that route it would solve the problem.
These people making combined income of over $100,0000 crack me up! sm
They act like it is petty cash. Then again, maybe it is to them, but I sure would like a chance to have that kind of money.
Don't mean to butt in ....
When I got mine this past summer, the gal at Wal-Mart gladly set the whole thing up for me and I went and shopped.  I had to give her information in order to do so, but since I didn't (and still don't) want to spend time trying to figure it out, her willingness to do it was very much appreciated.
Wow. That's really beat. There's a butt for

Or - there is a seat for every butt! nm

Also I was the one who said butt kisser
to Teresa's post and I thought she was quite smug as well. One should not think that what is happening to others cannot happen to them. For someone (Teresa) who acts like they have a team attitude, you certainly do not. I do not want to read e-mails sent out from DRC managers saying that they understand people may have a financial issue with lack of work. I do not want other MTs sitting around stressing out and having a hard time.
butt in but trying not to be rude (NM)

Oh, god... not the 'NUT-BUTT' again.

SO WHO GIVES A RODENT'S BUTT IF ...sm

the MTSOs or Suits cruise these boards??   Or have we forgotten WHAT COUNTRY ARE WE LIVING IN, ANYWAY?  They don't like us networking with each other?  TOUGH!  That's just tooooo baaad; OK with me if they like it, OK with me too if they don't like it.


Of course, THEY know that WE know that they're ------g us left, right and around - naturally DON'T WANT US COMPARING NOTES - sure, keep the dimwitted MTs isolated, so we can figure out a few more ways to keep exploiting them.  Don't want them comparing notes, though, because a little light might go off in their brain, and they'll tell each other, Hey, that's not right, let's do something about it.  That's the last thing they want ... for us to unite.  Decades ago, labor union opponents (i.e., Suits) found out the hard way that THERE'S STRENGTH IN NUMBERS & IN UNITY.  Because once we MTs start becoming more proactive regarding our rights, watch out, MTSO's!  


If you never even worked for MDI, butt

bird in the hand my butt sm
Do you call working for $5 an hour a bird in the hand? I was trying to be nice and give notice. I'm thrilled they said no. Now I can do whatever.......but not work as a slave. That is below minimum wage.
Gotta butt in here! Yes, the sound quality
is poor and it is the platform. I too left Transcend with the sound one issue.

I work as an IC also and the sound was excellent on my other accounts. So, it was not the sound card.

You have no affiliation with this company, so why would you even comment. The experiences of these MTs is real. I know, I've been there.

Also, what you are recruited for is not always what you get - been down that road with them also.

Very bad experience with that company and will never go back, ever!
Yeah...well, this butt wouldn't go in that seat!

Yes, she has her nose up Amit Chattergee's butt big time.
I have proof that she offshores.  I also have correspondence where she deals with Amit, owner of MTIndia.
As you can guess, I've been the butt of many Polish jokes - LOL

Not happy about WMX changes, but I have to get my butt busy and type today. (sm)

Yesterday I spent waaaaaay too much time on these boards and not enough time on the keys. 


Will catch up on lunch and after shift.  Can't give it up totally you know.


Good luck to all  of us in the industry.  What is good today may be crap tomorrow.  We just never know.


With all the holiday vacations and sickness, she has been working her butt off trying to pick of the

Didnt think of it cause I dont care. Wouldnt care if

Of course they care. They care you make just a tad bit
this way they don't have to shell out the sign ons, the full-time benefits. Oh, they keep watch on how you are doing and their budget. THey will use you til you drop and try to tell you that it is your lack of skills or speed keeping you from the full time pay which a person can't even pay bills with to begin with. Imagine that.. Use your skills, work hard, try your best, do well on QA, but make short of full time so no benefits, no extras, and no paying bills. This adds up to you broke, them rich, and a no-win situation... for the MT that is...
They don't care (sm)

They know they can replace us in about a minute or just send the stuff to India.


And we'll never get a union, there are still people who will defend these horrible companies who cut our pay, etc., so that we cannot do anything.


There are a few MTSOs complaining they cannot find good people, probably because they pay so poorly that nobody will work for them.


I know you probably don't care now,
something happened. You know…things happen in this life that we cannot control. Maybe it was her intention to call you right back and then she was unable to. Maybe if you got down off your high horse for a minute and realized she was only a human, you could have given her a call and gotten a great opportunity. But that's just my take, I'm not trying to flame at you or anything, but when persuing a job, I would think you might have given her another call if you were really interested.
I care too and I do believe that just because
a person works for a company that offshores, it does not mean they are going to lose their jobs. Yes, it would be a surprise that they send ALL their work offshore. Have you seen some of that work?

Well, many of us have to work companies that do a little offshore as a necessity to put food in our mouths so no, it does not generally matter that they offshore as that is a fact of life. All the US MTs losing their jobs however is a surprise and the QA too and THAT is something we should all care about.

I hope all the companies out there open their doors to this circumstance and take a stand against this kind of treatment of our own workforce.

It is totally bizarre.
They could care less.

They don't care. sm

They have a whole new audience in India, Pakistan, et al. When AMERICAN MTs finally started rebelling by dropping out of their *organization* they had to look elsewhere for members and it's clear to see where they are going.  Don't need them.  Never have, never will. Good riddance to bad rubbish. 


who am I to say you do not care about others...
read your own posts...you are speaking loud enough for all to hear how much respect you have for other people.

I will let you have the last word, because you have more than proven my point.

Thank you...
They don't care.
If you have ever had in-house escription MTs from the escription company time, then you know how terrible their work is. Our clinic let their MTs work on our doctors all they wanted. TTS is cheap, which is why they got the account. The doctors are also switching to EMR and many are no longer dictating at all. If the clinic had been a decent company, they wouldn't have gotten rid of my department to begin with.
Care to tell us

Think what you want. Don't really care - nm

Why don't we care for the ones already here?
It is 110% my opinion that as a species humans should learn to take care of the children who are already here.  It breaks my heart to hear of children bounced around in foster care and sometimes given back to *parents* who didn't want them in the first place.  I know there are good people doing foster care - but it's not the same as having someone to call mom and dad and having a home on a permanent basis.  There are still orphanages here, maybe not like in Oliver Twist but not a home with a mom and dad either.  There is a whole generation of children in Africa who are being orphaned by AIDS and genocide.  There are orphans being created in the Middle East every day because of war.  There are children in South America living in garbage dumps and being exterminated by the police as if they were vermin.  There are children in Asia tossed aside because they are the wrong.  There are so many beautiful children already here who need permanent homes and people to call mom and dad.  When are we as a species going to get serious about caring for them? 
I really don’t care to do because
i really love the acct I work on and feel comfortable there. I don’t know why I should change when I feel the work being doled out to others not on my acct. Wonder if overhired on some accts and now not enough for them. Do you use VR on your particular acct and do you like the one you are on?
Some don't care if you have a second job (sm)

but they will have you sign a non-compete agreement, including Keystrokes.  But the big ones such as MQ usually won't let you have a second job.  Someone was on this board a while back who claimed she worked for S and MQ, which to my knowledge is not allowed, but that was a while back.  


Anyway, if I was you, I would play down the second job; Keystrokes is hiring full time anyway, so it would have to be your first


I don't care where in the US you are sm
charging a client 0.07 is too low.  Indian companies charge more than that.  Have your friend take a job with a company and earn benes and let those local ones go.  No way can be worth dealing with all the office BS for that wage.  Trust me, those clients will come back and willingly accept a pay hike after what they see is out there.  Even .09 is too low no matter where you are.  Nationals are charging their clients between .15-.17 per line and these are clients from everywhere.     
We don't really care about you and... SM
your experiences anyway.  I figured you hadn't stayed at 1 company, not many of us have that luxury.  And I certainly know that it costs money to hire people.  But my point is just what I said, no different if she tests them all now or tries one and dumps them in a couple days or a week and then starts another one.  Plus, you keep mentioning this equipment stuff, but the OP never said that that was the case.  She might very well be just using her own. 
they care...
I am not sure what is going on with the pay issues, but I used to work there in work flow and I know for a fact that they value the MTs, so it is not intentional.  The VP of the company speaks very highly of the MTs and the wages they pay impressed me, since I remember them starting at 10cpl, and they do straight typing, so that sounds good to me since I am making .04 cpl on VR.  I hope things work out for them soon and that you all will be paid on time.
could care less
I could care less about YOUR work reputation, but YOU should care.
Taken care of. nm

Taken care of.

About day care
Day care does not raise your kid. Day care only covers you while you are working. The bulk of the child rearing still is done by the tired working mom. Working is a very good example for your child and it is a way of showing your love, providing for your child. Trust me, I did it for years. The only reason I started working from home was that the school schedule had too much time off. Day care isn't raising your kid any more than a SCHOOL is raising your kid.
anyone care for the.....sm
ATSI platform?  I believe it's Enterprise?  Any other info also appreciated.
