No. They dropped me to PT because

In Reply to: where do you work? - looking

to their needs but it wasn't me it was the other girl on the account. Anyway they dropped me to PT, she quit, and now they expect me do to the account on a FT basis without giving my FT status or my benefits back.

    They dropped the ball with me, too (sm)
    I persisted a lot longer than I normally would because I really needed a job and had heard good things about them. I kept on them for weeks, and did eventually get hired. I was with them for quite a while but had to quit because I needed benefits. Still the best MT company I've run across. One account that doesn't run out of work. That makes a lot of difference.
    Dropped you an email
    /
    So is this all QA or just those on the dropped accts?
    Just wondering!
    Job postings have dropped because
    we are in a depression. Yes, I said a depression. No one on television will say the D word for fear of scaring people, but do your homework. Our country's economy is tanking rapidly.
    Someone said 30 straight dropped to 20 VR - sm
    There's a thread downstream here about that. But I make 35 now. That's why I want VR to self destruct.
    Dropped Accounts sm
    How often have you worked for a company and they lost a huge account and you were fired?   I am really getting tired of this career and really need to find another one soon before I go nutters.  Company keeps screaming about TAT and hours and keeps threatening that they will fire us or the hospital will terminate the account.  We rarely get any positive feedback, individual or otherwise, and when we do get one kudo, its always followed by a BUT.. 

    Anyway, should I be worried..  Should I have another job just in case.  I am an IC and get my lines and rarely work other than the schedule I gave but I can't be without a paycheck.  We are barely getting by now. 
    Nope, I dropped OSi for another company.
    BUT, I bet you are doing OSi's dirty work....LMAO!! Good luck...you are going to need it!
    You are right. Even Bill Gates dropped
    the whole idea of VR, saying that it could not be perfected enough to be profitable for the software company who manufactures it. You are also right in that if something inferior is sold to someone and it doesn't work properly, they won't even think of using it again. In my experience, the C-phone worked the best and even WP5.1 for speed and from my point of view for making the most money. I also used to use Mac and found it to be very fast and efficient.
    When they dropped 's from eponyms they lost...sm
    what little respect they have.   Many doctors think transcriptionists are stupid if they type things like Alzheimer Disease instead of Alzheimer's Disease. 
    My accounts were not dropped. They were still going strong nm

    Glad I dropped her a line
    It turns out she lost my email and she was happy I wrote. I'm really glad. She's a great person to work for.
    It's sad how badly new job postings have dropped
    And those that are getting posted are mostly for places with really bad reputations and/or companies that don't respond to emails.
    My line count has dropped due to CPL
    I get taxes and insurance taken out of my check but my income went way down when cpl went down.  At 11,000 lines of regular transcription at 8 cents a line  my take home was around $800 (before taxes/insurance).  When speech rec came out and we were not given a choice of regular transcription or speech recognition the CPL went down to 4 cents a line.  Now my check is $500 (before taxes/insurance).  It makes a big difference!!
    My sister dropped her insurance. sm
    It was costing her $350.00 a month for one person. She pays for her office visits in cash and gets a discount because she is under the income level. Same if she goes to the hospital. She gets a poverty discount. I think it is about 20%. Go figure.
    sorry "most" of the time - dropped my sentence. nm

    Ha! This is what dropped into my pool of its own accord. It was a "pocket" and that happens s

    I didn't drop, the computer dropped a "k" but as a professional
