Well no one has a crystal ball
It's not inevitable that ALL clients and companies will go VR? Why would that be? It's not a cure-all, just another technology method.
Don't need a crystal ball when R.C. is informing all her favorites with inside info
How do you think the information about the production management team was being let go before THEY even knew it?
crystal ignore her, truth be known I sm
wonder what HER quality is like on VR? I have seen some of the VR coming back and it is awful. Mistakes corrected by more mistakes! You aren't going to get anything better because you have inexperienced folks doing VR because that is all they can do.
she is only thinking about lines crystal sm
she is not thinking about the patients. AGain, I sure would like to see her quality. I bet it's one holy mess!
To make this crystal clear
11001 lines at my current rate .075 FOR STRAIGHT TYPING $825.07
11001 lines at .02 top tier bonus 220.02
ADD THEM TOGETHER= $1045.09
11001 lines at my new ISR rate of .046875 = $515.67
11001 lines at .02 top tier bonus $220.02
ADD THEM TOGETHER = $735.69
Net LOSS per WEEK if my production doesn't change= $309.40
Comprende? Feel FREE to substitute your own figures for straight typing base rate AND for new ISR rate. Why am I the only one talking about my base rate? Does the cat have your anonymous tongues?
Yep, it's crystal clear now. I knew nothing of your company
before this post, and now I know that you're extremely unprofessional. Nice job.
Yeah. Billy Crystal looked about 12 years old.

They dropped the ball with me, too (sm)
I persisted a lot longer than I normally would because I really needed a job and had heard good things about them. I kept on them for weeks, and did eventually get hired. I was with them for quite a while but had to quit because I needed benefits. Still the best MT company I've run across. One account that doesn't run out of work. That makes a lot of difference.
Here is the comment that got the whole ball of wax
All the difficult jobs and bad dictators only make you stronger. You can't have perfect jobs everyday, so just get over it. Also, to MTs who refuse to do OP reports - you are only keeping yourself from being the best MT you can be. I've been an MT for sooooo long and I wouldn't even notice or care if someone was cherry picking. I certainly wouldn't waste my time checking. The jobs have to get done and I'm good enough to do them. If I have to leave some blanks, oh well, move on! You guys act like little kids wondering if someone got the bigger piece of candy. Good grief!
We don't need to say anything in OUR defense. This is unacceptable.
I got whacked out of the ball park!
After applying for many jobs, and not getting one, I decided to go ahead and apply at Focus. I took their test and didn't pass. The recruiter said I passed the first 2 parts but did not pass the transcription portion. I was really surprised since I have been a medical Transcriptionist for almost 11 years, have specialized in hem/onc for the past 7-1/2 years. Needless to say, this has really made me depressed.

Actually that was clinton who started that ball a rolling.
That's in the "average" ballpark. Some companies are trying to low ball at 3 cpl and less.
Definitely do not take less than that, as sometimes, you end up having to retype a lot of the text and it really is not worth it when your paid 3 cpl. I would never accept less than 4 cpl. Can I ask who offered you a job, maybe I can give you some insight.
Yep. This MT feels like a ping pong ball...
Meanwhile, because the last 6 months has not been the best with the MTSOs, owe lots of bills, and looking to change jobs for about the 3rd time. Actually very tired of being promised and then not having a full paycheck. What am I to tell the bill collectors today? I am going to apply to another job, or take on another, because my job is always running out of work? Talk about a poor credit reference. Uggg. Signed the ping pong MT.
JLGers - how flexible are they with hours, i.e. kids ball games, etc. (nm)
.
Why would anyone be so adamant about holding on to such a crud-ball, crap-paying, loser of a job lik
If this is what it takes to get us off our butts and get a respectable job that pays more than a 16-year-old makes babysitting, so be it. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise.
I for one am outta here. Good luck!
