Please look at your posts defending dishonest cherry-pickers, then look at yourself.

If you are looking for dishonesty and disorganization, TTS is the place!

Thanks for defending me! - (sm)
After a while one gets quite weary of being chewed up by some of the piranhas on this board every time one speaks the TRUTH. Some people need to take a close look at the way they react to the downward spiral of this profession, as that reaction simply perpetuates the downslide.

In the meantime, since Free Speech is still one of our constitutional rights in this country (at least I HOPE so!), I intend to use that privilege.
Not defending them, but they have
had an office in Louisville for years.
you keep defending them in every sm
possible way. If you like the way things are in India maybe you should go there and work with them. I bet you would change your mind.
I'm not defending the southener, but I have been
to Pittsburgh many, many times, as well as all over the country, and I must agree - Pittsburgh people are quite rude ... even more rude than NYC people - CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!!!
I hate defending them, but....
If you got your line count from the Word function, it's not really accurate. You have to take the character count (with spaces) and divide by 65, and then your line count should match theirs. I think the Word one counts real lines, which, sadly, nobody does anymore.
Not exactly defending the practice
First, I'm not a big fan of mandatory overtime anyway. I understand sometimes they need it, but after 40, there are some weeks where I don't even have another minute in me to give them.

I've also had the same thing with overtime...being happy because they're requesting it for an account that's semi-easy and I'm good at, and then logging on to find out it's the account from hail. I can't be the only one from that hail-storm to be working, and I can only assume they're not too backed up because they're not the ones looking for OT, so why oh why oh why must I type any of the Chennai Boomhauer in my spare time.

It must have something to do with different turnaround because I don't think my place assigns them. At least in theory, although I've not seen the spread sheets to prove it, it's first in/first out to me. I did ask them about this one other time I signed on for overtime at the slightly better place and got stuck with Hail Community Hospital. I was still eligible for the OT, but I'd have gotten probably double if I'd have been typing the actual account that needed the OT.
woah! simmer down, I wasn't defending
the other poster. I was trying to somewhat understand what they meant. Like the name suggested I'm neutral here. This is my second post, I was NOT the one slamming you.
100% equals perfect (?), not that I care, I was defending the other poster...
you post you have 100% quality consistently for 5 years - anyone who brags or throws out that kind of information is open for criticism.

I have no interest in typos on this board and never think less of anyone, only when they are making statements like the one you made, then I feel the poster had a legitimate comment.
Dishonest
Got the same treatment,sounds like alot of us did, not just us 2 I am sure.
dishonest
Why are they dishonest? What do or have they done to make you feel this way?
DISHONEST TIMES 2!
I transcribed 1,195 lines and ichart reflected only 154.08 lines the next day! I documented line counts every day, and for one pay period it was 2500 lines off on their end! - disqualified from benefits too. NO answer from supervisor.
I see. So that's why you are calling her dishonest?
Apparently there were changes made. That does not make her dishonest. It means her plans changed.
Could you explain what was dishonest?
I got an email saying that I could not sustain my life with 1 doctor - so they would have to let me go - that = you aren't working here anymore. So, the next step is to call your unemployment office - they determine whether you are eligible to receive benefits or not - and because of the emails that the lead MT sent - she is the one who hung KS - it was determined that I was eligible. Then you look for work - for which there are many different aspects of what you apply for and what you do or do not accept - there are not so many employment positions for MTs -more IC jobs which do not count as employment. I did everything as layed out in the guidelines. KS just didn't want to be responsible for their part of the unemployment - siting laws in their state - which are not the same as those in the state where I live - and you state's laws are the ones that count - not theirs. Please tell me what is dishonest about this. I did nothing dishonest while working for KS - all I did was work. Oh, I did miss one TAT because my broadband was down - and that was in a year.
Well that's just plain dishonest then.
I wonder if the MTstars quote was actually written by the the recruiter him/herself then.  I think I'll pass on this company then.
Actually, I think we all would like to forget them. It has been proven that they are dishonest.

Right on Sista!! They are dishonest and friendly until

I rest my case. Once again OSi shows how dishonest they are.
This makes me ashamed that I once worked for them, but also makes me glad that I work for a decent, honest company now and do not have to be a part of their BS!!
Yeah..they are dishonest. They most certainly are in India. Do you really want to work for someone
that is dishonest?? not me..
Why take it to email. Shouldn't we all know if this is an employer who is dishonest to their
employees. Inquiring minds would like to know if they really offshore..
Most Indians in the MT business are dishonest scum

If you are such a dishonest person, maybe they saw through that and let you fall to the wayside inte
You should be ashamed of yourself. This is called FRAUD. It is ILLEGAL and can give you prison time. You deserve it. You give MTs a bad name and I hope no company EVER has to deal with you that they have a way to talk to KS or any other company you have ever done this to.

I also hope they catch you and prosecute you.
How are they dishonest for taking out premiums for insurance that we signed up for? sm
Wow. People will bash any company for any reason.
RE:Sure is and the gal out of Nashville that runs it is a rather dishonest person - to boot. nm TNMT

I've feel for the same thing and tired of dishonest people.
My favorite was when a recruiter would actually do all of her recruiting by pretending to be an MT. She went to great length singing the praises of her company, even though others were badmouthing the company. She was very convincing until I put two and two together. Actually, she wasn't too smart. She private emailed me from the board as the MT saying that she would contact her boss to recommend me.. Well, though and behold her boss and her both had the same email. Now, do I look like a moron or what. So, honestly, I rarely trust those cheerleaders on here and just take it with a grain of salt because you never know who your talking to.
