I would be very wary...
Of employers who do not answer questions. I wonder why they are having interviewers offering employment positions when they cannot answer questions. That sounds like a scam that is too good to be true.
It made me even more wary
A lot of talk about them, very little about us, and a lot of not sure about issues regarding us for now.
I see this far too often here gals (sm)
I sit and cry in front of my computer. That is positively ludicrous. and what is ALWAYS my response.....NO JOB is worthy of shedding tears over; only spilt milk is.
I would be vvery wary of this company.
They have a history of  not paying their MTs, or paying very, very late, like months later.  I would not recommend them. 
be very wary. I started a month ago with sm
a company that had an account for at least six months. All of a sudden it dwindled to nothing. I questioned nad questioned and they didn't know anything but were going to check into it. All of a sudden I get an e-mail, out of the blue that said effectively immedatiely we would no longer be doing this account.

It could be the move with your doctors, but just keep your eyes open. These docs still need their work done and why would they let it back up like that without making some arrangements?
oh yeah, like that's a big surprise, gals
FN's greed shining thru their friendly facade.  Over-cover an account, make sure you don't earn enough, but they sure do.  Those of us who tried to warn everyone that they always ran out of work were basically told by posters on this board that we were not given work because we were not good enough and they were phasing us out, which was certainly not the case.  They just over-hire.  That way, their TAT is met, but the MTs don't earn enough to make a living.  And now, the bait and switch of going to VR?!?  They've got nerve.  Leave the ever-sinking ship; start warming up those resumes and bail out.
Be wary of their platform. If it's Apex, I'd run. No money to be made there.
I would do whole pages and only end up with like 30 lines. No thanks. I would have starved at that rate and it could be their line counting system too. They do it based on only black visible lines which obviously means no spaces. Good luck though. If I remember right, they send you the footpedal but it's been a while.
MDI-MD gals, what long distance carrier do you use?

MDI-MD gals, what LD carrier do you have? Business or residential?

Come on gals...the compensation..ah...putting it tamely...>>
IT stinks! It's becoming worse, if that is possible. There is a better way of compensating MT employees, take into consideration, naturally primary, education, et cetera. I think I mentioned it here before, but I do not recollect having received a response.
Some thing HAS to be done, and soon. For we, the ole' timers, like the actual hands-on approach, and it is still FUN! That's what it's all about and really should be, Job=Fun, as it also appears to me. Let's not lose it to a bunch of unpredictable terminators. javascript:editor_insertHTML('text','');

Honestly gals. Don't waste your time of this nonsensical so called "dictation."
