$25 is for overnight Fed-Ex and sm
in my area Fed-Ex is guaranteed by 10:30 a.m.
Overnight mail
I don't believe the $25 is for overnight - I did it once and I believe I was told within 3 days which was not worth the $25 charge. I live in Florida; am told they actually mail checks out on Thursday, almost without fail have mine with Monday's mail
If they are mailing overnight, then they are using
a service such as Fed-Ex, UPS, etc., or maybe even the postal service. Not cheap by any means.
Overnight mail USPO sm
It is 16.50 to overnight something from my local post office.
Overnight with USPS is like 17. UPS gets it there by 1030.
i never had any problem getting my checks from them.
It doesn't all happen overnight, but yes,
if Cbay has any say in it, I would bet money that they slowly start sending more and more over to India. That's what they did with Cbay, until eventually they finally laid off all US MTs and editors.
Why would it cost $25 to get a paycheck mailed overnight? sm
I was speaking with someone about becoming an IC with Futurenet Technologies.  They told me if I wanted my paycheck mailed overnight it would cost $25.  Why so much? Normally to mail something overnight is only like $5 or so.  Why $25?  Are they making a profit off of this?  Could someone explain?
Paycheck mailed overnight and cost
You have the choice of having you check mailed, which would take a few days or delivered overnight either via UPS or by DHL for a cost of $25. They do not utilize regular postal express mail so you can go with either of those choices.
Hope this help clarify.
Anything overnight costs bunches. Even if you are paying
a credit card over the telephone it can be as much as 9 to 15 dollars.
Foreclosure doesnt pop up suddenly overnight.Why

part-time IC is 5000/pay period and full time IC is 10,000 per pay period. Need to talk with
recruiter about cpl, I'm sure it varies with experience. 
True. Plus they have that delineation because they may pay higher for the overnight shifts.

No DD offered in July ག, wanted $25 each check to overnight it.

Never offered Direct Deposit, only an agreement to pay $25 per check for overnight deposit.  No work or low work through training, try to find someone to set you up with reports to type 1-3 jobs at a time, this could last for months.  Lots of ESLs as I have said before.  I only have experience with one account with 3 hospitals that still used WP5.1, and two accounts that were done in Word. All of these five hospitals had ESLs who slurred, rushed, mumbled, plenty of background noise on the unit while Doc was dictating, drowning him out.  QA read every report and seemed to have no problem filling in blanks, but very rarely sent copies so I could try to make out what the Doc might be saying.  Some people who answered phones on weekends and should have been able to get tech to help, or get someone in QA to help, were rather touchy and crabby, and quick to tattle to management if you weren't sweet after 4 hours of computer hell.  If they put an old outdated program on your machine, and your machine won't run with it like they say it should, they seem amazed.  Nobody is really able to help with the WP5.1 program, they're all waiting for the accounts to convert. They like to say it's a family, but to me it was a rather dysfunctional family at that.  


In summary, the two hospital accounts that were done in Word I found impossible to understand the doctors, couldn't make enough lines to pay my bills.  When I asked to try another account, I was given the WP5.1 work, basically the same story, awful dictators, PLUS big problems with the platform. 


Everybody in Work Flow and QA were friendly and kind and supportive.  Jim Pinkerton in Tech is very easy to work with but he has a lot on his plate and can't get to everybody's problems.  The other guys in Tech like I said just couldn't help with the WP5.1 platform.  Harder to get help on the weekend from any aspect, even though a weekend day is required. 


If you are looking for a great job they are out there, I finally did find one that I hope to be with for many years.  Keep your eye out on the Job Seeker's board here, and on MTJobs.com   Don't assume anything, have a list of questions ready when you talk to the recruiter.  And try not to take the first line rate offered, if you're not convinced it is enough for you.  You really can't negotiate it after you accept the job, you have to do it before you agree. 


Well, you can tell it is the last day of the pay period.
:
16,000/pay period
This is for 2 weeks, correct? You are able to transcribe 8,000 line per week; I can only currently do 6,000
You can always tell the end of the pay period is near.
:
That would have been $73.53 less than MQ last pay period for me n/m

About $9/pay period or you can use yours

Per pay period?

PAY PERIOD
12,000 LINES PER PAY PERIOD OF 15 DAYS, NOT PER WEEK, AND THAT IS ABOUT RIGHT
but pay period
It is like 9500 lines for part time and 12,500 lines for full time per bimonthly pay period
I do 16K to 20K every pay period sm
These last 3 weeks have been terrible for work load. I cleared 16,000 for this pay period, but it cost my body. I worked evenings helping out when there was too much work and and had to hunt and peck during my shift. It was Spring Break and anyone who does much acute care will tell you, work is SLIM during that time. I still got my lines, however.

Regularly, and I work 1st shift, I get about 1500 to 1650 WITHIN my shift. I don't have a lot of normals, but I have an outstanding expander. I am reaching for 18K every 2 weeks, but I am not quite there. I have not been with the company 90 days yet, I am new.


No , only about 10.00 a pay period
nm
not $50 per pay period ... sm
What she meant was, the computer is a $300 deposit, it is taken out over 6 payperiods at $50 per pay period. After that, there is no fee for the computer and if you leave and they get their computer back, you get your $300 back. just wanted to clarify.
End of pay period!
That's the way it always is. MTs don't make their line count so it waits until the end of the pay period and then they gouge what's there. It's not right but that's what happens.
10,000 by the end of the pay period - sm
so it does not matter how much you do a day, they just want 10,000 lines in the period for FT, 5,000 for PT. I have assigned accounts though, so no pool, I do what comes in on a daily basis, always of 10,000 lines usually about 12-13,000, but some of that is edit at .03 a line.
Must be end of MDI pay period
Little to no work in my primary. 
Then you weren't there for the last pay period which should be DD on the 5th and was not done unt

It's $20 per month, not per pay period.


7 or 8 cpl, period, forever. nm

Family is about $240 or so a pay period
Including dental and vision.
she said period v. semicolon

Period v. semicolon.  Comma should be here or there or not.


How common is Pay Period at net 30?
Was made offer to start with a company, have to work 30 days, then pay is net 30!  That's 2 months without income.  How common is this?  I  know they're are not going to pay until they get paid.  Yikes!
11,000 a week - do u mean pay period??
x
How do you do this Jo? In an 8 hour period? I believe you, just want to know How!
I am with Keystrokes and I can't do it. Hats off to you. What platform? I have seen fast typists do this before.
No holiday. It's the end of the pay period sm

Nearly always low the Monday beginning the new pay period. Never fear, we'll be buried by Wednesday again. 


11,000 lines per pay period. nm

It's important to ask if you will have 20,000 a pay period
xx
it says 64 dollars a pay period, below
nm
Do they still move the end of the pay period whenever they like.
They weren't bad to work for but that drove me crazy. I had it in my mind that the end of the pay period was on Sunday so I would work my schedule around that. So say on Friday I would think, Great, 2 more days on this pay period just to find out they were cutting it off on Saturday. I believe this was some bizarre attempt to be able to make payroll by cutting the pay periods short. I could understand if it was once or twice but it happened too many times and I find that made me nervous and wondering why you would changes pay periods so quickly without real notice. The company I work for now has their pay period dates set in stone for the whole year so I know exactly when the pay period ends and when I get paid.
Is that $12,000 per pay period or 12,000 keystrokes

I had no idea the QA period was your
testing period and that they would oust you if you didn't do well.  Glad I did okay. 
After probation period
The first year you get 3.5 days.  After 1 year you get 10 days.
Not true for me. I do 300 LPH but not over 10,000/period. SM
It is certainly NOT their intent to give us a bonus raise, although no MT company would do that these days.
I type 15,000 a pay period

I work 7-hour shifts and I range no less than 1500 lines a day.


Same here. I'm only saving $11.54 a pay period
but they almost take it all away with the vision.  After all the trouble to get insurance in the first place, now we had to do it all over again. I only got my cards from the old insurance at the end of March!
Axolotl is 51.31 per pay period for
medical, $3.73 for dental, and free vision.   Very good insurance if you are in network, so/so if you are out of network. 
Have you gotten paid yet? They said pay period

It is only 8 days since end of pay period
Most companies pay 2 weeks after the end of the pay period. What are you worried about? NOBODY pays the next day after you submit you invoice.
I would not work for them period. nm

I would stay away from them period! nm
