More than likely, I would advise you to
Of course, I don't know specifics about your current situation, but the other poster has pretty muched nailed it in summing up nationals. Any chance your current job would let you work from home? That would probably be your best bet.
Good luck to you!
My advise would be to get out of there
Any company that does this is dishonest, and they are not a place you want to work for. I have worked for a lot of companies, some not so great ones, but none of them ever did this. There are much better companies out there who will not screw with your line counts and will leave you alone to do your work. Good luck!
No but thanks for the advise- I will (nm)

I don't have any advise but I too

I would advise you to post
your resume on the MTstars resume bank, which is linked at the top of the Job Seekers board. State exactly what you're looking for, then let the little MTSOs come to you. The smaller MTSOs generally do not post job ads because they get overwhelmed with hundreds of unqualified applicants. Good luck with it! 
Good advise - Thank You! nm

I think they are working for the companies they advise us against!!
I am beginning to think they are working for the companies they advise us against so we won't take their work !!
OK - I'll wait - thanks for the advise! nm

I would strongly advise you to reconsider
Please read all the archives here... too much to mention and the messages tend to get removed by the administrator because they are so bad. In a nutshell extremely unqualified management in most cases, promote friends and newbies to positions like team leads and QA, inconsistent and wrong QA half the time, on and on and on. Please don't bother with them. I promise you that you'll regret it if you do. Please read the archives here.
I wouldn't advise anyone to work there! It was...sm
sure not my cup of tea. Platform is FN, which I didn't find production oriented, and I wasn't crazy about their accounts, either. We parted after 3 days!
Thanks so much for the wonderful advise. I accepted the position.

Just to advise, that company does not have access to MTStars

advise is a verb - advice is a noun
Just because a word is in spell-check does not mean it has been used properly. Advice is a noun, i.e., I need your advice. Advise is a verb, i.e., I advise you to learn proper grammar. This is basic elementary school grammar.
I would advise anyone doubting the validity of the lawsuit
To go back into the archives, at least 6-10 weeks, and check out GPs posts regarding why the work was low at TT and its direct correlation to Dictaphone. While this may not on the surface appear slanderous, it was presented as being fact, not opinion. If her assumptions about TT and Dictaphone were incorrect, and TT can prove this, it is indeed libel. I don't know GP and I enjoy her posts. I'm just a realist/fatalist and see things in black and white most of the time. I'd say it about myself had I left myself wide open and vulnerable.
As for the the unnamed 'Jane Does,' perhaps one of those is that person who types in all caps and says TT 'steals' work from their MTs, 'frauds' the line counts, etc. IMHO, that IS libelous and quite damaging to a company's reputation. What scares off an MT more than the thought of being cheated on their lines or having the good dictators' reports 'cherry picked' by the leads, leaving them with the dung no one else wants?
I'm sure I'll be flamed for my opinions, and frankly I don't care. Libel is what it is; presenting something as fact when it is not fact, and if the person/entity can prove otherwise, they most assuredly have a very good lawsuit.
I am very sorry GP is going through this and I wish her well; however, I cannot condemn TT for taking legal action if she was posting erroneous information as first-hand knowledge of fact.
Freedom of speech is one thing; passing on inaccurate information as fact is an entirely different ballgame.
I got to be paid on time every two weeks or I'm outta there! Just my advise
Advise is in SpellCheck. So maybe you should have suggested Proofing Ms Grammar Police.

Good for you, if that is true. It is really a losing game. Wouldn't advise anyone to pursue it.
You have to lie a lot, wouldn't you agree? It is all bait and switch for the recruiters. They promise a lot, but the companies do not follow through. Care to say who it is you are a hiring manager for? LOL. Never heard it called that before.
