    Count our blessings
    I think we should probably be glad it is only slow - so many companies on this board are out of work more than they have it and in the 4+ years I have been at QT, I think I can count on one hand the times I have been asked to take a day off, actually don't think I ever have, but have volunteered when it was slow.

    they haven't replied.  Archaic system, verbatim accounts, rude management, and terrible QA.  You can make a lot more and have less stress w/other companies out there.  Of course, I'm sure there are others who will get on here and try to make them look absolutely wonderful just so they can get a bonus

    There are not a lot of companies that pay even that anymore. I would be thrilled to get a raise to 8.75 cpl. I have been a Transcriptionist for 22 years, and only make 8.5. My only saving grace is incentives for production, QA, etc. It's not right, but I make about the same money as I did 15 years ago (actually probably less because I work 40 hours now as opposed to maybe 30 as an IC) because of changes in the way companies count lines, VR, etc.
    i appreciate that and do count my blessings daily
    I definately know I have a great situation job-wise. I'm also definately not one to groan and moan about life/job/bills, though I didn't really do that when I was making half of what I make now either. Sometimes I think a lot of success has to do with attitude. If I wasn't so nose to the grindstone and instead spent a good part of my time dwelling on the not so great parts of being an MT or about life in general, I definately could not be as successful or productive.

    I realize that I may not be the norm, however do want everyone to know that it is possible. There are good companies out there and there are ways to make yourself successful and highly productive.
