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!!!!

Bad things? what bad things? people's being petty and small?

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. 
most people have to turn off AutoCorrect.

I don't understand why people turn CHRISTMAS

Growing up, it never occurred to me that people would get drunk on Christmas.  There was never any alcohol involved in our Christmas celebrations.


Marry DH and his family shows up at any kind of get together at all with booze in hand - Christmas, birthdays, funerals, weddings, graduations, doesn't matter - never without the booze.    Very low-life behavior if you ask me.  I'm no prude but geez.  Life's not all about alcohol!


Wonderful! So nice to hear good things like this!

I think the Lia Sophia is the name of the company..I just checked out their website..nice things! n

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.
What, like most people don't do those things?
I have a low flow shower head and a water conserving toilet.  You don't even need to shower or wash your hair daily.  Nobody gets that dirty.  Take a sponge bath every other day.  I had my house weatherized and analyzed for energy efficiency to be sure I wasn't wasting gas or electricity.  Then I updated the windows, insulated the house, and installed a new energy efficient furnace.  Then there's the on-demand water heaters instead of the ones that run all the time.  I have no magazine or newspaper subscriptions because you can find everything you want to read online.  I resell, reuse, or donate everything I can.  I recycle aluminum, glass, paper, plastic, tin, and any lumber or metal scraps.  I avoid styrofoam and CFCs.  I work at home so I don't have to commute.  I have an electric scooter and a bicycle so I don't have to drive.  I have my own organic garden and compost bin.  I freeze or can my homegrown fruits and vegetables, then reuse the jars the next year.  This reduces the need for tin cans and for semi trucks to transport the cans to my grocery store, too.  I even divert rainwater for watering purposes instead of running a hose.  Everybody I know of does all of those things and more.  We're not treehuggers preaching to everyone else about how we're holier than thou either. 
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. 
But if people who know things do not post
it on the board, how should TechSupport know that some people already know it?

So she offers her knowledge in a, as she explained it,
rather extensive and elaborate way, so to give all the information and avoid misunderstandings.
End of discussion!

Today is Saturday, my free day, I have to bake a chocolate-cream-cheese cake for my daughter who comes and visits!

Have a nice Saturday evening!
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

Nice people, good price
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????
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.
She's not mental, it's just that she's right about many things people can't face up to...

Most of what she says is true.  It's been far more documented as fact and the truth than the information the administration has given and still gives. 


As far as soldiers.....read optruth.org.  There are many soldiers who do not agree with this war or how this administration has handled it and they need to be listened to.


You'd probably be AMAZED at how many people do fall for these things.

I love the way everyone things VR people are the slow ones
I type about 140 wpm and averaged on straight typing over 2000 lines per day. The hospital was outsourced and VR took over. I love VR and why do you assume that only slow typists like? I love it, our system is not crap and now I average above 500 or more lines per hour. Don’t know where people get off talking about the slow ones. You are assuming.
Because the people who manage things in health
My thoughts are, when their bad kharma finally comes back to them, I hope it really hurts. Then they'll know how it feels to be an MT.
Pay is average, benefits are expensive, but seem like nice people.

QA discrepancy... told 2 different things by 2 different people. How would you handle this?

I am a brand new employee, so don't feel comfortable in this situation. 


TIA 


Some people have said things about reliability issues. Others have said there can be problems with

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - animals know things people don't.

Yes, odd. But, have they ruled out other things such as a brain clot? When people die sm
in their sleep, it could be a number of things. Since it just happened, I would imagine they are running multiple tests right now.

If, and this is huge speculation...If he was on drugs before or then, then an MI is definitely possible and not unusual at this age.
Just turn it off and wait for the electricity to dissipate and then clean it and turn it back on. nm

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.
What I think is so sad is that people may give up good jobs to go there to find out these things all
to late. The newbies can learn and use MQ and move on which they do but of course the clients suffer then with all the people learning on them but this is what MQ causes and when they lose clients with poor quality or people that just throw out work then they caused their own problems. You cant keep good MTs with no work I dont care what incentives you offer because they mean nothing with no work ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I wish people would understand that when MQ hires them.
Bless your heart and your sons. Some people just don't know when to NOT mess with things
Sorry you have a goof for an ex, and I hope your son's footie will be ok. Chillie
PS! Also watch out for people who leave things attached to your doorknob -
I'm sitting right here in the front room (drapes usually drawn where I sit), and I not only hear them come up to leave stuff on the door, I ALSO hear them try the knob to see if it's unlocked. Pretty darned creepy how many low-lifes and predators there are out there.....
RE: I used to work for Freedom Type - VERY nice people - didn't do VR, just straight typing (nm)

Those things are not indicative of a hero, RadGuy. People who fought in battle
are hero's.  One who puts themselves in harms way to protect another is a hero.
I agree, jeez, I can't believe how quick people are to suggest quitting the minute things are bad.

Turn down such low low offers, turn industry around. sm
The way to figure is how many lines an hour do you do. There are 13 lines characters in a line (65 line length)
So say you TRY to average 4 pages an hour say 34 lines a page equal 139 lines, times your line rate.
139 X 4 cents a line = $5.56 an hour

and what if you don't do 4 pages even less.

MTing hourly hourly output is not very predictablel, so ya never know and predict what you can put out each hour.
THE WAY TO TURN THE INDUSTRY AROUND IS TO SPEAK UP, SAY 'NO' THAT IS TOO LOW AND GIVE SHORT EXAMPLE.

If the MTs continue to accept, that is what the going rate will continue to be. Yes, Yes, it will. Just keep looking. Email for general lowest to highest line rate prior to testing and resume, just say it saves time on both sides and it DOES. Why waste time. Soon, the message will get out there.
Turn off puter, wait a min, turn on with delete key pressed down, then hit delete key NUMEROUS times

Dirty old men. (SM)
I would avoid him. He won't change. He is looking at you like you are porn. Probably has few other women to gawk at. I'd take your mother out for lunch. It is very uncomfortable being around a man who is like him. I know. Have your mother visit you. She knows what he is doing.
Dirty Old Man

TELL THE SON OF A BITCH OFF NOW!!!!  It will only hurt your relationship with your Mom, if she finds out and you haven't told her.  Also, you need to tell your Mom.  It sounds to me like they would be better off split off anyway.


Remember, you are the one feeling violated.  Tell him OFF NOW!!


there is no reason for his behavior other than sexual.  do it now, before you are really uncomfortable.


.....served up in a dirty ashtray....


Oh, and you make it sound so dirty!

You're the one with a dirty mind!
How would YOU go about eating an orange with no teef?!        
For what it's worth, I don't think that you were treated dirty...sm
They decided to go to EMR, which is their choice.  It sounds as if you financially made out extremely well (very, very well) doing their transcription. How about charging a nominal fee to assist them in setting this up? In the end how do you know that the EMR will work out for them, and 3 or 4 months later they decide to go back to using a MT? It sounds like you made out like a bandit doing their work, and for what it's worth I would be quite reasonable fee-wise with this one in the hope that they may retain your services in the future. I don't think that you are going to run into too many gravy situations making $100.00 dollars an hour doing MT, and acyually they are not treating you dirty by deciding to try EMR.
If you have the time to get down and dirty with some low-life bad debt,
As for me, I live and learn. Ever hear the phrase cut your losses. The more time you spend chasing down a bad debt the more loss you incur.

Truly sad when couples air their dirty laundry in public

Please, think of the children! 


I would feel sorry for Sh*ri except she is such an obvious whackjob who truly deserves whatever is coming her way.  Baby, you know the old saying:  What goes around, comes around.  Obviously it's coming around back to you in spades!


Yeah, Anon, the dirty dogs!!! nm

I use the dirty sock I left under the desk yesterday.

I think you over-reacted. You made something dirty out of a child's innocent crush.

a different room doesnt matter to a dirty old man "Been there done that" they dont care where
They still try. As long as they think they are "alone". Privacy is not a good thing in dealing with a pervert. Even if there are people in another room. You could scream but it would still be a situation I dont think she wants to be in.
