Well, thank you for that. It's about time we get some decent service and good prices on equipment for the work we do. Maybe things are changing for the better. Do ya think????

Agree with other poster.. good price..good service
I definitely think they are one of the best out there. We also have been talked through issues over the phone and also had a warranty in which they came out and fixed it right at our home. My only complaint..and I am sorry for saying this.. but... when you call their customer service 9 out of 10 times...you get someone who barely speaks English and I just hate that. I think that is true of a lot of customer support centers these days, ironically they are rarely American anymore. I am not prejudice at all. I just find it frustrating to call in for help and the help you get barely understands you and you do not understand them, thus making the experience very frustrating..
I don't know many people that could afford the $100-200/ticket price...sm

I wanted to see him until I saw the prices.... then of course TicketMaster throws in all of the "courtesy" fees that tack on another  $10-15.  


I was nice today, and people were nice to me.
If you steer away from the nastiness, there are a few nice and encouraging posts in there. 
Yay, a new one! Might get a good price, too, with
s
Where can I get a good resume at a decent price??
Anyone used a company with good results that didn't charge an arm and a leg???
How's Medispell? ive heard there good for the price.
thx
Any suggestions on a good Vacuum at a reasonable price?
I would love to have a Dyson but they are a little over my budget.  Thanks!
Good for you! You sound like a very nice and generous person and you deserve all your good luck! nm

I think it is nice of her to help other people...sm
Nothing wrong with that. Also I guess she has been doing this long enough maybe she is confidant in herself. I don't see anything wrong with that. I don't think shs is braggin on herself. Sometimes it just ticks you off when you have someone over you who acts like you don't know what you are doing.
Yes, I agree. Free is a good price and Express Scribe will work just fine for you. (nm)

The price of gasoline is reflected in the price of goods. Having said that, one item
higher, MOMENTARILY, than Walmart, does not really make a case against Walmart. You want to make Walmart a bad guy because they don't have a shopper out there matching the grocery stores' price so be it. But MOST people I know shop at Walmart for lower groceries prices AS A WHOLE, and that is what makes Walmart successful. So buy your cheaper Bounty towels at your grocery store if that makes you happy. Your grocery store HAS TO MAKE MONEY and they will get you on something else. It is the retail law. Walmart will not be successful with higher prices than the grocery store. They aim to succeed. They have been sucessful in undercutting other stores. Your Bounty towels will not bring down the Walmart empire but it may cause you to shop at your grocery store where they will charge you more on other items to stay in business. Quit the knee-jerk responses. If you don't like Walmart and don't want to shop there that's all well and good. If you don't shop there because of Bounty towels, well that's just crazy.
Nice people, but pay is bad plus no pay for spaces.
Yes they also offshore. They are not very flexible.
Amphion People are Nice
Hi. I don't work for Amphion, but I know a couple of people who do. They are both in management, and they are really, REALLY nice people. Do you have an interview for an MT position? If so, you'll be just fine! The thing that matters most as an MT is your ability to decifer what's dictated and type it accurately!!! :)
Nice to see people care
I am relatively new to this site, but from reading the posts it seems like there are several negative people out there who probably don't care about the person you are writing about.  Unfortunately, I did not read her post and I don't know where she is, but I hope for her sake she is okay.  I have been troubled to the point of not wanting to be here anymore, but I was able to get help, and now I am doing great.  I just wanted to thank you for caring.    If you should here from here, please let us know. 
You all are a pretty nice bunch of people, you know.
Donating to the kids of fellow MTs, taking the time to email people and encourage them on how to be better MTs.  I'm really touched.  This month has been pretty rough but y'all are certainly putting the reason for the season out there.  You'll never know how much one email can impact somebody's day.
Very nice people.. but log sheet is very tedious! nm
.
Let me add though, the people there were awesome and very nice!! I wish it would have worked because

It's nice to see so many people on here moving to better jobs!
There seems to be an increasing trend on here.  I know there are still a lot of unhappy MTs out there, but more and more every day I am seeing MTs who go ahead and get out of their dead end jobs.  I am so happy for all of you.  Just made a move myself recently and I am so much happier.  When you get up every day and hate going to work and your life is miserable - it no longer matters how long you have been there.  It is not worth it.  This business is constantly changing and we have to change with it, hopefully for the better.  For whatever reasons, in the last 6-8 months there have been an enormous amount of unhappy MTs because of the changes being made at these companies.  Therefore, the amount of resumes and applications being submitted to job posts have also been enormous as I was told by the recruiter that hired me.  Hopefully that will settle down soon and those of you who have been unable to find a better job will have much more success.  Don't give up though, it just may take a little more time.  Congratulations to all who have landed better jobs and good luck to the rest.  We're pulling for you.
Pay is average, benefits are expensive, but seem like nice people.

why do people want to turn nice things dirty?
I am so sick of people like this that just seem to ruin everything.  This is how it all starts!!!! I love that this is a place I could be with my fellow MTs since I work at home.  This is like my office!!!   I love that our mod is looking out for us.  THANKS!!!!
rude people? I would take good pay over polite people any day
Besides that they have never been rude to me and I have been here for almost 2 years. What do you consider a bad account?

I know my account is a little tough, but I am used to it. I am tough!
I heard they were not nice to work for. Knew people who have worked there and left.
This is secondhand information, but I trust the people that told me this.
RE: I used to work for Freedom Type - VERY nice people - didn't do VR, just straight typing (nm)

Good for you Liz -- you are right, not very nice...
If these people truly worked for MDI-FL, they would know they could come to you about these problems.
It's all nice and good to have your POV
made from bad decisions. For example, while I made a choice to get involved with a particular man, I didn't chose to have him stalk to THREE different states, or have to move 9 times in 9 years, pay oodles of money to lawyers and private dectectives to protect my physical safety! Yeah, you bet I ran up my cards.

I'm free of debt since filing for BK (before the new change in laws) and I have a fresh life in a new city with no worries about my safety. I recertified the debt on my car so I still have it and the car payment, but they can no longer add late fees if I run late (hasn't happened yet). I earn enough money to pay cash for everything. On the one occasion I did need a few hundred dollars until my next payday, I went to a cash advance place and paid the outragous 450% interest for a 4-week loan.

You need to remember that instead of BK being a really long-term mark on your credit, it actually resets your credit score and within a year, you can have a better score than you ever had before. I'm already getting tons of offers to get a new car, new credit cards (all of which are shredded). But I now qualify to buy a home (never owned one before), plus get grants for the down payment...there are many perks to filing it.
That's a good one! Nice! :) nm

Thanks. That's a good idea and who can't use a nice pen, right? nt

Good for you! Glad you said your husband! That was really nice!

That's a good idea too. It sounds nice.

I personally prefer to have good sex with someone who is nice to me. nm

Wouldn't that be nice! Good Luck! nm

Wonderful! So nice to hear good things like this!

Good girl Laurie...now you'll have a nice night
and the evil doers can spread their evil elsewhere!
Good for you! So nice to see MTs rewarded for their hard very work dedication.

Any suggestions for a good MT for part time other than MQ as far as a nice company to work for. I
think it is time for a change about now.
That was a nice, uplifting post. Good luck to you. I am 49 and a little scared of the future. SM
My DD is in college, 25 YO son moved back in with me after losing his job. I feel stressed, not making the money I used to make. You have made me feel hopeful today.

The thought of working for the public just makes me cringe.  How do waitresses, cashiers, etc., put on that happy face all day long?  Props to them.


Some people (definitely NOT me) are good at SM

ESLs and know that companies will usually pay more per line for ESL accounts.


I personally would want to commit hari kari (sp?) if I had to do ESLs day in and day out.  JMHO.


Chickadee


YEP, and some people have good taste and....sm
and some others have NO taste/class....*lol* 
Yes there are people actually good enough to hit 98% accuracy. Happens every day!!!!! sm
QA has only become a real job in the last 10 years. Before that there was 1 QA person for every roughly 100 MTs!!!
Of course it was - too many people still believe we went there for a good reason. nm

what some people have to do to feel good about themselves

"What do you all do when you have to type an expletive?  I am working on an account where this comes up often.  I refuse to type the actual expletive so I usually just put (expletive) and go on.  No one has ever said anything, but I was curious as to what everyone else does."


That was my ORIGINAL POST.  I wanted to know what any other MT in the field did regarding expletives.  I didn't ask you to judge my character.  I didn't need anyone telling me to "put my big girl panties on."  All I was looking for was for you all to tell me what you did in that situation.  I guess it makes you feel good to pound on a person rather than address the inital question - if that's what you need to do, then so be it.  I am not new to the field.  Been an MT for over 10 years and have never typed an expletive, though it hasn't come up often.  Found this board and am mostly a lurker and thought I would finally run it by some others.  Should have just kept it to myself.  No wonder I like being an MT - you don't have to deal with other people very often.


Go ahead and feed the piranhas if that's what gets you through your day.


Bad. Good pay, but bad accounts and rude people
stay away IMO
I know people who have not had such good luck online
But good for you!!!
Good 4U! Fellow people-pleaser here LOL.nm
