20 hours/5000 lpp
It's on the MLS web site under company info, policies and procedures, part time policy.
AT&T's ULD is only 5000 minutes, which

may cover you for 2 weeks if you work FT.   I'd be looking for another plan if I were you. 


I was investigating this a couple of weeks ago and I did read somewhere about unlimited up to 5000 and then after that you would need to get a business plan, but I didn't specifically read anything that said the unlimited was only limited to 5000.


I did talk with someone at AT&T last week because I had switched from them to digital phone service through my cable internet provider and she said we have unlimited long distance for $24.95 and I said yes but your unlimited isn't really unlimited and she said no that the limit was 5000 minutes. 


 


 


5000 lines?
Just saw a job posted and they wanted 5000 lines a day. Seems humanly impossible to me. Does this make sense to anyone?
5000 lines
I thought it was a typo and responded that I would need at least 1000 lines per day (thought it was 500) and he told me to go back and check the add, which I did. 5000!!!???

It is the 2nd add in the job postings.

Will e-mail him again and double-check. Maybe he means per week?!

Thanks for the response.
5000 lines
Duh! Now I do feel stupid!

Thanks for clarifying. Guess I need to practice actually READING completely!


That only probably leaves 5000 who
didn't e-mail you.  A union will NEVER happen. 
minimum 5000/week
I do 6000, about 1200 per day.
Who can transcribe 5000 lines/day?

I have read on here that some of you can transcribe 300 or more lines per hour, which means it would take you around 16 hours a day!! I do not think there is anyone out there that can transcribe 5000 lines a day. He either means 500/day or 5000/week I assume.


Has anyone ever heard of this company or know who this Timothy Olyphant is? What do you think of this job offer? It says transcription project.


I would appreciate any info and your opinions. Thanks


 


I could certainly contract 5000 lines/day out to
Just because it's a job ad doesn't mean it is only addressing individuals transcribing alone.

do you consistently
get the same line count total on a daily basis or exceed that?
I make $4000-5000 but NOT WORKING for a national
I just couldn't even make $1800/month working for a national because they kept running out of work, or had me tied to a computer for 7 days a week, or I was getting up at 4 a.m. just to try to get some work before running out. I certainly would never work for MQ because I would have made less than $1800/month, but that's just me. I now do it independently, and I'm not bragging, but most of my months vary in the $4000/range. A couple have been less, and the most has been $7000/month. JUST NOT FOR A NATIONAL. NO WAY, NO HOW!
Yes, 10 cpl, mininum of 5000 or 6000 lines per week I think. nm

I'm fulltime IC, need to get 10,000 lines per pay period, believe parttimers need 5000 per pay
period.  They've been very flexible with me, as long as I get in the required lines by the end of the pay period.  We use DQS platform, which is user friendly, but I don't think it's as easy to get lines as on some of the other platforms, I think because of the way it counts them.  DSG is a good fit for me, always treated me fairly, pay is on time. 
4000-5000+ lines per day of correcting awful VR? No thanks.

Consistently I would say easily 200/hr all the way
up to 300 per hour but with the right macros/expanders you can certainly do even more than that because it not only depends on the account but also how proficient you are with your expanders.

Of course, you'll probably need a day or two to recuperate from your hard work:)
Nobody, just an employee consistently sm
out of work and fighting for lines like so many others while the poster brags about too many lines and getting bonuses. It's kinda ignorant to others to come on here and brag.
You will starve! Consistently no work!!
nm
Not bad at all. Consistently hitting 2000 plus
lines a day. Just gotta get used to the Audit SW. It's not the greatest but it's not the worse.
Been there, did not make it consistently, left and did
Got a nicer manager at the other company too.
Do you consistently have penty of work?
It's my understanding from MTs who have left Landmark that there is often an issue of a lack of work.

Do you work PT or FT? In your experience, do you usually have plenty of work?
How will anyone get incentive if they consistently run out of work. That is a BIGEE.

MTSOs need to know the work is going to be done consistently. Not just when someone feels like

I have been running out of work consistently recently. nm

Any other Spheris MTs running out of work consistently? NM

But not everyone has extra time to spare consistently, even at their
Again, I don't work for Amphion, but I could never work somewhere that wanted consistent OT. I deliver high-quality, high-production 40 hours, and outside of that I still don't have enough hours in the day to devote to my non-MT life. Amphion would be a terrible match for me, but I'm glad there are others who can live up to the overtime demands.
good money but consistently run out of work??

Don't know but last year offered 8 cpl w/sps from 1100-1400 lpd. Then went to 8.5 if consistently
s
Yeah, right. Heard this before. They flat-out consistently over hire.
nm
I do think it has been light lately, but if you are consistently running out of work try talking to
your account lead and see if there are some answers for you.  I have several accounts and don't usually run out, but don't always work on my primary.
Thank you for proving my point: Being consistently good has a better chance.....nm

I meant nothing wrong. I meant a friend who can vouch for

Only comment I found from last year said they were consistently late with payments. nm

I am having a hard time understanding why companies consistently overhire when they run an ad.
They have to know that people that need a certain amount of income are either going to quit or cut back and get a second job.  What does it gain them.  I would think this constant hiring and hiring and training would get very old and certainly has to impact quality.
TransTech LOW and NO WORK consistently for many months now, especially within the past couple

of months when they thought they were getting a new account and hired everyone who called or submitted a resume.  There is just NO WORK for all of us anymore.  Lost account, so what did they do -- put those MT's piled on top of us on our primary account. 


TT is in serious trouble, I do believe, financially.  If they are having to pay MANY MT's, but have few accounts, they won't last for long.  Who is TT's financial backer?????   Do they have one????  Who owns TT???  I once heard a real estate broker owned them.  Wonder how much rent they pay on their office in Houston???  Wonder how many $$$$ in bonuses they are giving out to mgmt-type people????


We TT MT's are seriously hurting financially and getting very stressful on our health and livelihood.  We hear absolutely nothing from mgmt about this situation, but *good things* are coming.  You remember when the Q said the same thing to their MT's a few years ago and it was only beneficial to mgmt.  It was a real crock!!!!!


I must say that my job that I used to enjoy beginning my shift every day is now the MOST stressful thing in my life, and we ALL have stressors of one kind of another, admit or not.  TT has become the biggest stress in my life, without a doubt.  A doctor friend of mine and my own personal doctors say that is what my problem is. 


These MTSO's have gotten just as greedy as GMC and all those other HUGE conglomerates!


I don't understand it. We've been consistently running out of work primary and secondary the
I quit.
It was not meant to be nasty. I meant that you should take every job seriously. Just because someo
is their focus does not mean that patients should suffer. 96% accuracy could mean the difference to someone who is on the receiving end of that report. I am NOT QA or management but I am an experienced Transcriptionist who believes that the reports we transcribe need to be accurate for the patient's sake.
That is not what I meant at all! Meant broaden to

Broaden to think leave to other profession if that is what is wanted, dont limit yourself to thinking only can leave to another MTSO.  Geeesh.


part-time IC is 5000/pay period and full time IC is 10,000 per pay period. Need to talk with
recruiter about cpl, I'm sure it varies with experience. 
Sorry I meant
just like sm and not dj. I
did not see who correctly who posted first.
Oh, NO!!! That's not what I meant.
I'm sorry it came across that way.  I got duped into applying with them by all the rave reviews on the boards, too.  Plus, they make no mention of it on their website.  I refuse to work for a company that offshores.  As for the people who are happy there, more power to them.  That's their decision and I'm glad they've got great jobs.  I just need something else from a company.
SORRY - meant DRC not DSC
...
As I said, if it meant that much to me I WOULD
figured it was their loss.  No biggie to me.  All I was doing was giving MY experience with the company, which consisted of being told I would be called back, and then not being called.
THE LAST ONE MEANT FOR MT2
Thanks!
14,000 - that's what I meant to say! nm

Sorry, I meant see msg

I meant even that isn't much FOR QA...

Sorry, I think I meant DSG. nm

I am sure that is what was meant.
Would you tell your child that determination is not enough? I felt that it was not appropriate to tell a future grad that she cannot do something when there is not one of us who knows her well enough to make such a judgement.
sorry meant WILL NOT
get that rate at Deventure
what I meant was...
that I had information and if you would email me, I would share that information in a private email.
Sorry I meant to say just . . . .
Sorry I meant to say just my opinion.
