It is an internet based training company who guarantees they will find you a job in data entry field if you sign up with them at 99.00 for training, you get manuals, etc. She wanted me to look over this company. Sounds fishy to me. What do you think? Ever heard of them? Any experiences?
Thanks!

I already emailed you with a company to fix
I do still love you, though, as an internet friend and poster! I just got really crushed a few
months back, and just went away...But I'm back! In case you hadn't noticed. But I forgot that when I post as Laurie, then some other Laurie surfaces - the evil Laurie! Oh well. Such is life on message boards! 
My domain hosting company emailed me
And said that there was some trouble with connections somewhere around Atlanta, resulting in wide outages. They also said that whomever was responsible for the maintenance of these pipelines was working on the problem. I guess a lot of people were wondering because they couldn't get to their websites, but the hosting company said that their servers were working fine, but some couldn't be accessed due to the connection issues in the "big pipes".
GO WITH THE NEW COMPANY - BUT QUICK
I am so discouraged with MTing with Nationals that I would jump at the chance to do something else - especially if it were from home.
True. I was told this by a friend who is a computer tech at a company
here in town. He was going to do it for me. No way would I try to do it myself. Luckily, I was able to buy one with XP on it from Dell.
My high speed internet is through our local t.v. cable company. nm.

How about your husband tells the friend to tell his female friend to lose the #?

A friend of a friend is taking CareerStep - sm
she is under the misguided idea that she will be making very good $ upon completing the course (a friend of hers supposedly makes $55K a year). I told her no way, at least not starting out and not unless all the factors click together, i.e. good typing speed, good pay (not for a newbie), good dictators (unlikely) and dedication to working hard. I told her what I make after 5 years (16K) but that is PT and I have the potential to double that if I would push myself, not procrastinate so much (I web surf way too much) and work more than I already do. I am not a fast typist but am good at what I do. I will be surprised if she follows though. She told me she'd call me when she finished the course, I just hope she is ready for reality.
Internet based transcription - need advice on how to go internet
Can anyone offer any help/advice on how go about becoming internet based from a call in system, or how to keep the call in system for the docs and put transcriptionists on the internet? Not sure where to start to get information on how to go about doing this. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
If you want to work on the internet from home, take an internet course
But only from Andrews School or M-TEC. Many companies will waive the 2-years' experience requirement and will test and hire you if you go to either of those schools. Do NOT bother with At Home Professions, Penn Foster, US Career Institute, or ESPECIALLY Trans-Am, which is also known as Trans-SCAM and is a total ripoff. You will have a VERY difficult time getting hired without experience unless you choose Andrews School or M-TEC. Yes, they cost more, but that's because they are excellent training programs, not "correspondence courses."

I have never heard of that. When I emailed
the phone company, they did not even mention such a product, but I live in the boonies so that could have something to do with it. Does it cost a pretty penny to get? TIA:)
I have emailed you and have more info. - sm
if you want it.
I emailed my "boss"
This is what was forward to me. It comes from the accountant -
I have not heard about the IRS pushing for this. However, I seem to recall hearing that the FTB is pushing for this in California. Basically, it is easier for the tax collectors to get their money from employer contributions as opposed to quarterly payments. The independent contractor status has been under attack for a number of years and this may be the way to finally eliminate it. Check with your accountant to see if he/she has heard anything.
That's funny, because I just emailed her--sm
and asked her the very same thing, except for the power part, I know how that works. Guess I am not the only one!! :^)
Hey there - I just emailed you w/some info...nm
per your request, I just emailed you *S*
To the person who emailed me...
Thanks for your reply and your time in replying, but I totally disagree. (I don't reply back in email, as I never know WHO it is replying back to me... could be my MTSO!)
Just because I'm an IC for an MTSO does not mean they own me. If they want to own me, I had better be getting a hefty salary, insurance, 401K, paid vacation, sick leave, personal days, season tickets to the Cowboys games, and a company car like my husband gets from his job. (And they do own him sometimes, up to 80 hours a week and more, but he sure doesn't get paid per line! Not hardly.) It was all IN MY CONTRACT.
You are right, she does not care that I have children. I DO. Which is why it was IN MY CONTRACT that I do a 24-hour turnaround, no less without prearrangement. I am not asking her to care about my family, but I am asking her to care about the contract. Sorry, but I refuse to do what you did and have someone else take care of my children. That is why I do MT rather than make a lot more using my college education. This is why it was, I repeat, in my contract.
It does not just come back to what the boss wants. She's not my "boss". I am my own boss, working within the bounds of our contract. She is the one who keeps wanting me to go beyond my contract with no consideration for it, and it's not going to happen.
If, like you seem to indicate, that's just how MT is... then yes, I will end up leaving the business. However, judging by the other responses, this MTSO needs to learn the difference between IC and an employee/slave combo.
emailed you the link.
Same boat here, emailed you. You know there is something sm
to hide if MTs weren't notified about this. Sad we hear about it from other outside sources rather than our own company. I always tell my children if I hear of something they did wrong, I darn better hear it out of their mouth's first! No loyalty here. Guess it is back to the job board for me.
Still not opening at all for me. I emailed

THey emailed you through not site.
They don't know what your actual email is.
To Susie who emailed me...
I tried to reply but it was sent back!
One of the male MTs emailed me his pic. sm
I didnt know he was sending me a pic of his little willie. I didnt want to see a penis when I looked and then just ROFL @ it.
