    MQ true or false...FALSE

    Yep, we are swamped in Ohio but no, that bonus was not offered this past weekend. Line bonus's were.


    False. They are training everyone for it but
    LMAO,oooh gawd, you're just killing us here! LOL

    False advertisng ..........
    How can a company brag about their ability to meet or exceed HIPAA regulations if they offshore?  There is just no 100% way they can guarantee such a thing because once it leaves this country, there are no laws governing those things in another country.   To me that is just false advertising and very misleading to their customers, whom I question even know it is leaving these shores. 
    unfortunately not false advertising.
    It says UP TO $60K. When I worked FT, I made that much. Ahhh, those were the days!
    MQ-True or False about Work

    Can this be true???? My girlfriend who works out of the Ohio office left me a message saying that she had gotten a message over the week end from the Ohio office with the following incentive: For every 10 reports that you typed, you would receive 25 dollars--IS THIS POSSIBLE with all the rest of us out of work in Amherst--if there is so much work in Ohio, why are we not helping???


    What you're saying is completely false.

    Enter "Psychology" as your key word. Lowest I found in my area (Philadelphia, PA) was 62 grand a year. Plus just the respect that one gets from having a college degree is worth it!

    Go back to school. I'm taking Psychology as well and can't wait to get off this dead-end life of MT.
    Not to give you false hopes, but I actually
    got my period for about 3 months with each of my 3 pregnancies. I also had faint lines on my pregnancy testers. I'm sure there are others out there who have had periods as well - just tune into your body for other symptoms of pregnancy - i.e. I always also suffered from hyperemesis gravidarum instantly and for 9 months for all 3. Yuck. Good luck to you! Keep the faith!
    We have had to endure so many of their false alarms about warnings
    that no one pays attention to any of them, including those that are obviously going to be a danger.  People are tired of being told to live in fear of everything, so they ignore it. 
    I agree - it is a false sense of security.

    There are pedophiles everywhere that aren't registered.  I just can't believe that the laws aren't tougher on these people.  Anybody could come up with $500 bail - that's like a slap on the wrist.  This guy has made me very uncomfortable for a long time.  Last Thanksgiving when we were out of town, he strung Christmas lights all over the house to "surprise the kids,"  and he brings them over Christmas presents every year.  Thank God I have never let my children be alone with him.  The next time my husband tells me I'm over-protective, I'll be sure to bring this up!  Really, is there such a thing as over-protective in this day and age?


    Not false info. I'm telling you we just changed this! lol
    No more M-Tec and Andrews.

    Unfortunately, false statements of high pay attract

    I think French just might be
    my least favorite accent. Despite my French teacher bragging about what excellent speakers the French are, never saying um, just having fast flowing speech, when dictating in English, the ones I've done have had some serious stammering, poor enunciation, extra words, and many unexplained word choice changes, and it's all I can do not to scream and grind my teeth the moment I hear that accent.

    I'd love to tell my snotty French teacher that, too.

    French!

    French for me too.

    You must be French or something because it is
    (singular)

    ▸ noun: the form of a word that is used to denote a singleton
    ▸ adjective: grammatical number category referring to a single item or unit

    (plural)

    ▸ noun: the form of a word that is used to denote more than one
    ▸ adjective: grammatical number category referring to two or more items or units


    pleural is a medical term, regarding the lungs....

    Could this be termed false advertising. Seems like a lot more people on the other board are saying
    the same thing about MQ. If she is so religious as you claim why would she steer people to a company to have them not be able to pay their bills. Seems a bit odd to me.
    Me, too. Only if I send receipt do they know it was read. False information.

    You can also charge her with "filing a false report" with police.
    The police offered us to do that against our neighbors because they call the cops on us any time we even have relatives over for our childrens' birthday parties. It's not like we get rowdy and drunk. We sit on the deck and eat food for two hours. Oh, dread.

    Sue the wench in civil court. Call the police and ask them what you can charge her with.

    The French sounding name in other words
    it was not like I was a Jones or Smith, you know, simple sounding every day names and if you have worked as long as I have in this business, I have seen dictators get a chart mixed up with another, not that it happens often. That was the reason for my saying it - he could not have mistaken my dictation for a Ms. Smith or Ms. Jones....

    My take is that you are both correct and mistaken.  People with French as their mother tongue can be both challenging and reliable to transcribe in English. The challenging part is the omission of certain sounds that are normal to the English-attuned ear.  The reliable part is that the differences one hears are usually SO predictable.  I belive that with more info I can help you even with your specific problem.   


    I think Spanish and French are the worst, (sm)
    and I even took French. But they have an annoying way of dropping out all recordable sound and just doing something with their lips that a recorder can't pick up at the end of some words that is very annoying.

    I have enjoyed British, but every newbie should be warned about their "stop" and "full stop" for punctuation, LOL.
    Autocorrect turned french!

    Out of no where my autocorrect is french!  Anyone know how to turn this off??

    Spanish, French do celebrate Christmas in USA
    Middle Eastern Arabic people do not celebrate Christmas nor the Jewish people (and Chanukah comes early 12/3 this year so they should be working.  Russian Christmas is in January.  The Hispanic community as well as the French communities here in the USA, as I know it, certainly do celebrate Christmas.  Happy Holidays To All....
