Care to share your method and/or company?
Sounds like you might be in Radiology. Appreciate.
DH pays the big bills and know he won't have more taken out on him, we don't share checking ac
I have mine and he has his but like I said before, he pays for my car, his and the house note. Just moved here in 2004 and not planning a move, ever hopefully! But, as in my previous post, I have as regular employee been told to take off everything that pertains to my working at home (before becoming IC), room, DSL line, phone (have to have to use the DSL), computer, printing materials, all so I keep all receipts in all years plus we have 3 tax bills for 3 different properties for this past year (just sold a home where I used to live) but all that is kept. What I am saying is I have been told for years as an employee working from my home ok to exempt these. I do not like TAX TIME!!

Would you care to share

would you care to share who you IC with?
if you do not mind.  Thanks. 
You wouldn't care to share
the name of your "awesome" company, would you? I have to find something stable and secure, making at least what I do now (8.5 cpl), with some flexibility. I have worked from home for 7 years now, and have only received one or two phone calls in that time about a mistake I made on a report; otherwise have had positive comments from my QA.

I absolutely loved my job and company until 01/01 when all H**L broke less with MQ.

I'd like to continue working from home, so I can keep volunteering at my boys' school (they're 8 and almost 10 years old), and be here for them when they're sick, off school, etc., but if I can't find a good company, I'm afraid I'll be forced to join the 8-5rs working outside the home. Then that would open up another whole can of worms, such as what to do with the kids during their days off/summer vacation; when they're sick; etc.

I don't blame you if you don't want to give the company's name out, so as not to have an avalanche of applicants with them. I guess I just needed to ask anyway!

Glad you found a good company. Hope I can, too! :)
Hmm - care to share the spreadsheet?
Is it in Excel? Does it tally for you? This would be awesome to have!

What company pays this much
Would love to know who pays this much for VR editing.
And you have a company that pays this? or do you work on your own?

Please point me to a company that pays more
for ESL transcription. The one I work for certainly doesn't.
LOL Probably the company pays for it. What a racket they have going on.

I don't believe a word they say and it makes me sick.


The company I work for pays by the minute--
So when you have dictators just sitting there taking their time those minutes can add up.
our company pays 80% of our regular rate. (nm)

Not all QA is paid per line. My company pays
per hour and pays VERY well.
Do you think a company pays less for rural pay than city?
Does not make sense to me.
Our company pays a flat rate
based on the length of the meeting, and they schedule multiple meetings so you can choose which one to attend (during your shift or outside of your shift). Of course, they also pay downtime, so it sounds like our companies have somewhat different philosophies.
Please share the name of this company!

would like to know


my company pays downtime for conf calls...

It may be worthwhile IF you can actually find a company now that pays extra for it -
I let mine drop after 6 years. It got to be very costly keeping up with the continuing education credits because for me it meant nearly always having to fly some place to get them, hotel, food, etc. My 2 cents...
Share company you work for. TIA n/m

I too question you overhead expenses. I work for a company that only gets 11-12 cpl and pays us 8-8.

how about looking for a company that pays radiology reports by report and not line? nm

Fair question sure would be nice to share company name sm
so the rest of us stay away.  What really gets me is when there are a number of QAs and all QA differently, no way to know which way to jump.  Share the company name or at least initials and state.  Is it transend in Georgia.  Which, that is fair question 
Blue Cross/Blue Shield or Mutual of Omaha - Which company pays off claims the best w/o hassle?

Do you care if your company offshores? ...
It really chaps my buns, and I will not work for any company that sends work out of the U.S.  How do you feel about it???
In every company I have worked for that pays via mail, they mail the checks on payday. sm
Depending on the distance you can get them anywhere from 3-8 days later. Right now one takes 3 days, the other 3-5.
Oh I care, it's making a joke of the company
that used to be a professional organization. You think clients don't see this? Think again.
Congrats, girl, and get your share of any money that you share before he wipes you out. nm

VR pays half of what typing pays...
If you would read her post more closely she said she does VR, which pays half of what straight typing does.  I do VR and have made 4 cpl, so 5 is actually good and 4-5 is an industry standard, and may be even less if you are an employee.  The problem is that you have to double your line counts in order to make decent money, which is not always easy.  I embrace VR because I like it better than straight typing, but it is not productive for everyone, no matter how hard you try.
As far as company VR for critical care it is not very good and I agree with the other poster. I tend
to leave little words in or if I have to take a lot of words out an extra word gets stuck in. It is a mess. If you are speaking of your own person VR at home to help I know nothing about that. With companies at this stage of the game you will not increase your productivity as you think.
Share, share, I've been looking for some time...sm
sending out resumes gallor, have great experience, but they sound like clones of each other in what they offer, yet what they want is it all!!!  I'm so discouraged, in the depression boat myself!  They want you to commit to FT, new equip, DSL, on and on!!!
THANK YOU! That is my point. She still pays taxes, her DH still pays taxes...

so who exactly is getting cheated?  And just who are you talking about when you talk about whether it is "fair" or not.  I don't give a crap how much taxes my neighbor pays.  It's none of my business.  And if I found out they were paying less in taxes than me, I would ask them how they heck are they doing it so I can do it too!


I just want ask, is it necessary to get personal and insult?  You disagree with me, fine.  But I've been called a liar, a cheat, a no-ingetrity thief, my intelligence has been insulted, and I have had my parenting skills questioned.  That is a little over the top.  If you cannot debate an issue without resulting to personal attacks, then YOU are the stunted one!


It is a very good thing that some of you work at home, ALONE!  You are sorely lacking in people skills and diplomacy.  Let me guess, when you worked in the office you were one of those girls who didn't like to share her desk, griped if someone dropped a crumb on your desk, and kept track of everyone's breaks, lunches, and line counts just so you could tattle to the supervisor!  I've worked women like you, it was like working with kindergarteners.  That's why I came home to work.  Do us all a favor, looking in the mirror, count your wrinkles, and realize that this isn't high school anymore!


Kinship care versus foster care/adoption
Having been placed in a position where I now have custody of my 3 YO granddaughter and going through the legal system, I sought an online network of relative caregivers for children. I would encourage you, especially since you are in Georgia, that if you take any children into foster care with the idea of adopting them, there is federal law that requires the state to take certain actions in a specific time frame. When a child is removed from it's bio parent(s), the state is required to investigate any possible relatives who can take the child before foster care is considered, but even before that, reunification with the parents is the priority. Once a child enters the system and is in the system for 15 out of any 22 months, the state is required to find permanent placement for the child.

The problem with this is that there are case workers who may favor a foster family and do not seek out relative care. I have a good friend in Georgia who had to fight all the way to the state level to get custody of her grandson after the child was placed from the hospital into a foster care home with the promise that the foster parents would be allowed to adopt. She has now adopted her grandson, but it was a long, hard battle to get the state to admit their own interests were placed above those of the child and/or family.

If you get a child placed through the state, please make certain there is not a relative who wants that child before you get your hopes up. The courts are now favoring return of children to relatives even after a child has spent years with a foster family who hoped to adopt them.

States get bonus federal funds by complying with the time lines and being able to close the case, so some states place children in foster care because it is easier than trying to locate relatives.

Didn't mean to go off on a tangent, but I can't imagine my sweet bella going to someone outside her family.
If it was a clinic, it might have been urgent care, but it was NOT acute care. sm
Acute care refers to work in an acute care setting, a hospital, doing at least History and Physicals, Discharge Summaries, Consultations, Surgery notes, Emergency Department notes, and much more, including GI procedures, Cardiology procedures, Neurological procedures, Pulmonary Function Studies.  It goes on and on and it means and acute care hospital setting, not a clinic.

who pays 40% tax?

I'm an IC and keep track on my gross income and taxes on an Excel spreadsheet. I use this link to calculate my taxes:  http://www.pensoft.com/taxcalc.asp


I claim married status, one dependent. I'm paid semi-monthly. I make certain to double the SS tax at the bottom of the page.


My taxes are between 22% and 25% of my gross earnings, depending upon what the gross pay is. Never had a problem with the IRS yet.


So, if 40% of your gross earnings goes for taxes ... something is WRONG!!!!


no-pays
What do to if the company you work for doesn't pay for two months and stops answering mails and work is stopped as well? I am in a different state than Ohio.
