Who is making the money to keep your paychecks the same????


Is this really fair?  You mgmt people should be doling out some of your paychecks to us MT's who have NO WORK and LOW PAYCHECKS.

those bonus checks aren't extra money...you would just get tw bigger checks rather than 3 checks

don't kid yourself


I'm not mgmt. I don't even work there, but was

My choice was between TT and another company.  The other company went higher than 9 cpl, and I went with them.


A few days ago, there were messages they were bouncing checks, writing bad checks, etc. Search the A

I dont mind background checks, but why credit checks!!!! nm

Didn't realize you were actually MISSING a day of work b/o people working O/T. What did mgmt say?
nm
but mgmt told me they outsourced some work to a small company at times.

There is no reason for me to lie about this.


I am NOT talking about offshoring, but the company whom they outsource to may offshore . . . I have no idea about that.  But straight from the horse's mouth, they have outsourced to a small MTSO before. 


You can notice how the work dries up all of a sudden when they turn it over to the service and we have no work.


TT mgmt may not tell that they outsource today, but they definitely told me about 9 months ago when I asked when the work was low.  From the way the jobs disappear occasionally, I think it happens quite often.


Does anybody work for SmartMed/TSI? When do they send out pay checks? TIA. nm
nm
What spell-checks work with Transhealth, Precyse and Medquist? nm
nm
Exactly..who mails checks anymore. Even back in the day at work, every other Friday
our supervisors would pass out pay checks. Another thing...I think the OP is just trying to stir people up again, but why????
Don't know mgmt, but in Feb. you needed Word 2003 and Office 2003 to work. nm

And where did my work go today -
And offshore for no reason but to save money?  Happy, happy, happy, very happy I don't count on MT for anything anymore!
Yup! Got one today and I don't even work there!
I haven't worked there since February! Up until as recently as a month ago, they were still calling me and e-mailing me asking me to work and type stat reports! The incompetency of this company just makes me sick. I had to finally call the HR person to tell them to stop calling me or I would report them for harassment as they were constantly calling me very late at night (10 PM and later). I have been gone from that hell hole for about 7 months and am with a much, much better company!
Work today
Steady between primary and secondaries, got my 1500 easy today.
No work today again. System down..
How do you make a living like that?

I have work, all on today's date.

yep - Trinidad is doing MT work for USA today....

Any other First Choice MTs out of work today?
Or is it just me?
RAD Keystrokers, as of today, is there enough work every day?

Anyone else at Transcend out of work again today.?
Lots to do on Saturday and Sundays, come Monday morning everything dries up for the rest of the week.  Overhire maybe or maybe the swarm of mosquitoes that blow in from the east every night? 

Any other MDIers out of work today?
No work on my primary, secondary and tertiary accounts!
I was IC w/them and checks came on time. First checks were FedX'd to me on time! I left due to an

You'll have work today, but not tomorrow.

Offered job with Transtech today. If you work for TT....
what has your experience been like? I got all the answers I asked for regarding platform, hardware, work flow, schedules, benefits, incentive, DD and paydays. Everything sounds good. Insurance sounds more affordable than other places I have talked to and they also pay for 12 hours of training plus line rate. Please only respond if you currently work there more than 3 months or previously worked there for more than 1 year.
I've been out of work 2 times today
7 a.m for 1-1/2 hours, and now. I don't count the 1 or 2 reports that slip in. I've worked exactly 3-3/4 hours today in my 8 hour shift.
There is lots of work today. Plus next week is still
part of the payperiod. There is plenty of time to get your usual check.
Sad you have to come to this website to try to find out anything, they are already out of work today

First time since July, I ran out of work today BUT sm
Extext has been terrible for over a week. I think it may be Extext. I had to wait until midnight before all my lines from yesterday showed up. I have been booted out a number of times, have lost reports, had it put in offline mode and my internet was FINE.

It may be Extext!
Running out of work again today. How are you all coping? (sm)

I have tried flexing and checking in every 10-15 minutes to get lines and then having to often make them up in the evening eating into another persons shift. 


I have now picked up a PT flexible job that I do pretty much of an evening and my days off.  I just have to commit to lines, not hours.  Great gig.   I don't want to endanger this PT job because I have to flex all over the place to get lines with WMX. 


How are you all managing the low work flow situation?


My accounts have barely any work today.

I've managed 2 small jobs so far today.  My account had picked up for about 2 days and actually had a good backlog, but then it was bombarded by MTs instructed to go there, so completely wiped out and nothing left for the primaries.  And I see instructions for other MTs to come here for part of their lines again today as well, which means the primaries on my account have to fight them for work again.  If my husband hadn't just had his hours cut also, I'd consider just taking a week off and getting stuff done, since I'm mostly wasting time babysitting my computer that I could put to more productive use elsewhere.


That explains it, yesterday I had no work, this morning DS on today's date. NM

Thank you. I went to Walmart today, and guess what, they had one phone and it didn't work!. Go
NM
LOL! No, I'm FAR from mgmt!
Nemesis would have been closer ;) Believe me, I have STUDIED this company and would be the first to zing them if I felt it was earned.
Former MQ Mgmt = HIS Mgmt
..
U'r KS mgmt - I do my job, so had better you
Only someone in mgmt at the co. would keep posting like this, and be so seriously upset. I can just see an MT defending someone they work for like this, LOL.

The IC co. I just left did the same thing. Always responding pretending to be an MT. LOL.

Like I SD - you better believe my pay better be in my acct on the day it is supposed to be there. Not 1-2 days late. You want me ON TIME on the job, you want me to be responsible, give you advance warning of days off, do a quality job, to work the hours I am scheduled. LOL - that goes 2 ways - you better do YOUR job and ON TIME.
Yes I am in Mgmt.
I see it as part of my job to check things and keep it fair.
U can try discussing it with mgmt but you will just

be discriminated against because u do not think what they do is the best thing since fried grits.  If the program is so wonderful, why all the problems, the notes on the private board about major issues never resolved.  Why does it break down every day?  Why are line counts so hard to get?   Say a word to mgmt about anything and u pay the price by getting nothing but garbage for dictators and garbage accounts.  


They could save a lot of money by trashing this program and starting from scratch cuz MLS could actually produce some work on something decent. 


 


They must be in co-hoots with OSI's mgmt
so lame
Should be -- Don't KNOW if she means mgmt.

re: Word/mgmt

When I applied, Word 2000 and Excel 2000 was the minimum that you needed.. I did ask about the bounced checks, etc and was told that they do not currently have an issue but it was at one time. 


Every reason to believe? Oh, boy. I think mgmt (sm)
has better things to do than sit around on these boards all day.  Trust issues, huh?
Did you not think that QA and mgmt were in contact?
nm
My advice - look elsewhere. They (mgmt) is
extremely rude and feedback is insulting.
OMG! That explains it, then. MQ mgmt, and
ex-management are literally scum. After that enlightenment, I wouldn't say I was smart to send MDI-MD packing, but rather my MQ disgust radar was going off, and I didn't know why. Isn't that bizarre? That happened to me at another company a while back - one I was checking out before leaving MQ, and I accidentally recognized one of the names of management on a group email, and inquired. Sure enough, it was a company started by all ex-MQ mgmt. I tried to stay the course, but it was just the same old BS under a different company name. So sad, as I had heard great things about MDI-MD as well. Thus, my willingness to give them a shot. That's really a shame. Lots and lots of MQ MTs left MQ for them as well, and I know not many of us can handle any additional financial hits right now. So sad. People get the courage to leave one monster, and end up in the monster's spawn. Sorry if I offend anyone, but if you know MQ, you can relate.
Mgmt is US based but BAD!!!

Since the US management took over, there is no work and many Focus MTs have either quit - like myself - or have acquired 2nd employers so they make money.  No work, bad management, accounts leaving, payroll always coming up short now, no decent QA, management that won't answer your IMs and if you call team leader you are called stupid, a liar, a worthless retard and basically they hate you and will fire you.  I would personally avoid the company.  It was better and more honest and work flow was great when the Indians managed Focus!


That seems all you have done . . . TransTech mgmt ????
So silly . . . .
sure sounds like T mgmt, but thats okay.
x
send it to everyone BUT mgmt. Make sure it's just to the MTs. sm
what are they gonna do? fire you? LOL
They also did not change the MGMT insurance
and that's just not right. Seems the ones who are making them all that money for their BIG salaries are the ones who are suffering. VERY UNFAIR.
Don't ever forget that HR works for MGMT and not
