Toooooo funny! While she is at it she can do my hair too and I would like it in a bee hive with plenty of rats.

    again, depends on what you call good
    As with anything in life good and bad is relative - only 3 years ago if you called 8 or 9 cents a line good you would NOT have known what you were talking about. For well educated, hard working people as we are to being accepting less and less money is a CRIME and this industry is getting away with it. For someone with a test score to be offered less than 10 cents a line for day work is a DOWN RIGHT INSULT. Everyone else's salaries go up - and ours go down. We should NOT was accepting this situation.
    Why don't you call them and ask? I have found them to be good at answering
    those types of questions. Better to get it from the horses mouth, I think.
    lets call it 50/50 .... bad/good MT/company

    Everytime you say something good about a company, they call you a troll - (sm)
    Who's the idiot?
    Thank you so much for responding. Good luck to you. I hope they call me.
    nm
    Good point. Who do I get on the phone if I have to call customer service
    for my credit cards, or software questions, or whatever?  I get someone who I can barely communicate with in the freakin Philippines, or wherever.  It is so WRONG.
    Good and Bad - some gifts bought/missed WMX benefits call (sm)

    Of course I procrastinated to attend the call on my day off, then off I went with my daughter shopping. 


    Did I miss anything much other than explanation of health plans?  Is there a web site they referred to you?  Should I call HR and admit I am a moron? 


    TIA


    Well, call a lawyer then. A good one. You could even get court costs paid by your employer probabl

    Yes, call waiting works. I also have call forwarding from my home line

    You can call it greed, I call it feeling like
    I am back in the 80s with the money I am pulling in. SS, retirement check and my paycheck, cha-ching. Not planning on taking it with me, never. Love to travel and have 4 places planned for this year. High maintenance lady here. Ta-Ta.
    The best co. ever! Good work, good people, good pay, good bennies.

    Yes there is! Good pay and good bonuses and good benefits.

    Personally, DSG is a good fit for me. Pay is good and on time, sound quality depends on the account
    and I like the platform. There is not much weekend work, although sometimes is available.  I get along well with the management, no major complaints.  There is pay incentive once you get over a certain number of lines in a pay period.  I work as an IC, so can't help with benefits, insurance questions, etc.
    I'm with them. Good work environment, easy accounts and I'm making really good money. nm

    Fairly flexible but they do like a schedule. Insurance is good. Benefits are good in my opinion.

    For the past week, work has been a little slower but I think that is common in every company..some days busy and other not.


    Does anyone recommend a pretty good company that is good to work for, pay always on time and plenty
    of work.  I know that is asking a lot, but just curious?
    Strictly IC, good company, hard accounts, good platform.
    Good pay, always on time, no direct deposit though.
    Is Transcend a good company with a good platform to work on. They are advertising.
    :
    Webmedx hires some ICs. Good company. So sorry for your loss. Good luck!
    x
    TransTech for many reasons, good pay, stable company, good benefits
    and flexible.
    I have looked around the last 6 months and have found nothing better. Have turned down numerous jobs, and have finally decided to stay put. The better insurance plans were announced and even moreso than ever, I am staying put, and my paycheck is happy about that because it is getting better every day. Good luck to you.
    TransTech is a good company. Debbie is the owner and a good one at that! nm
    n
    Good company, great people, good benefits.
    Affordable insurance. Good luck!
    Adminstrative Assistants and VanBelkum. Good companies, good pay!
    x
    Spheris supes/QA are good, insurance not good; they offshore
    nm
    U.S. only, very steady work, some VR, good pay, good insurance, no PT, schedule. sm
    That should cover it!
    Things are not good there now. Think only hiring for 2nd and 3rd shiifts. Good luck. nmx

    Had the same happen here, heard the same thing, good references and good ....sm
    job record will get you better $$$ if you are willing to promote yourself, search like crazy, talk to everyone, etc., but I have never been paid a cent more for CMT, what a waste, and all the years I paid my dues to AAMT, what a joke, they did NOTHING to better our field, just took the money for better conventions, as far as I can see.
    Call them......
    Since the Warminster office is being absorbed into the Northeast Region, the only ones who can answer that question for you is the Warminster office itself. I've worked for them for years and have plenty of work - my accounts haven't gone anywhere.
    Yes. I get what they call
    a tiered incentive on my checks and then get quarterly bonuses to boot. I was quite impressed actually. I started at 8.75 cpl and can earn up to 2 cpl incentive plus the bonuses.

    We got Labor day incentives too...$40 for the first 800 lines and $20 for every 400 lines after that.

    It may all fall apart but right now I'm happy.

    If you truly cannot call, perhaps
    it is time to find work with another MTSO/company? That way when one is slow, you will have another as a backup? This is, of course, assuming you are an IC. If you are an employee having communications issues where you cannot even call your employer, I would start looking elsewhere.
    I could call and say
    I could call and say I I couldn't work that day if I was sick or if my daughter was sick, things like that, but I've never done that with the exception of a few weeks ago when my husband had open heart surgery and I ended up not working for 3 days.
    I could call and say
    But the point is I would never do that. I have to have a very good reason why I wouldn't work.
    Why not just CALL them?
    .
    of course call
    but I would take this as a warning: If they don't follow up *before* they actually hire you...
    So should I call them? (nt)
    xx
    I had a guy call me to tell me he was going to
    his MTs are earning money, but he would not tell me his company name. I did not answer the phone. That really made me nervous. I will not be giving my # out again.
    Call and ask.
    x
    When I tried to call...
    I got the message about the number being disconnected, so I emailed and got called back from another number.
    You can call them and ask.
    nm
    Really not sure, but I would just call them and ask.
    x
    Why not just call them?
    If I get no work on an account, the first thing I do is call to make sure there is no technical reason for the lack of work. (like maybe I was fired? (locked out?) :))
    I would call in and

    talk to them.  There is certainly plenty of work and they don't want you to be unhappy.


     


    I got the call too
    I am concerned because this company does offshore and I looked at their website briefly and they are apparently looking to acquire more companies.
    Definitely would call now!!
    nm
    Call them!!!
    I was afraid to pester the company I tested with, too, but after waiting 8 days I called yesterday and got hired.  If you want the job, pursue it!
    they call you once and then
    you never hear from them again!
    I did call...sm
    I was told the hospital was low on work today. I agree about communication being horrible.
    I just got a call from them....
    Yes, Synthescribe showed up on my caller ID and they are all the same people!!!! Makes me wonder what is going on.....
    Why not call
    And ask them yourself?  Maybe you can switch to a shift they are advertising for, or you can get more work on another account.  Seems to me, that your supervisor would know better than anyone on this board.  I don't plan to work there, but that is what I would do if I were out of work and they were hiring...Just IMO. Otherwise, best to assume they have their reasons and if you don't want to call and ask, well I have no other advice except to say I don't see why you will get any answers here unless of course your question is rhetorical. Good luck whatever happens!
    Do call them.
    Carol Gilbert is such a nice person and though I have not worked for her I have had dealings with her over the years. She is terrific. I think you would be happy you did get in touch with the company. Good luck.
    Call them
    I left them a few months ago. I had my refund in about 10 days. If it's been 3 weeks, that's too long - something got snagged up. Call HR or your old supv and let them know the situation - they are excellent about that sort of thing.
