Not all heard webcast, and what about newbies to MTStars - & the industry? They need to know. nm

Anyone in the business long enough knows this by living it. - common sense knowledge for yrs now. NM

oh gee, thanks! Most of us have "daily reminders" - anon

of our future in this business...now we have YOU to keep us focused on it even more. What a blessing you are! NOT.
Most? Maybe, but not all. And who said daily reminders from me? - Periodically. SM
[ In Reply To ..]
So what, you would prefer to pretend this wasnt said? You would prefer to sweep it under the rug? You would prefer that newbies to the industry or MTStars should be kept in the dark?
I didn't say "daily reminders" from YOU.... - anon
[ In Reply To ..]
I said most of us have daily reminders (from our own experiences) not from YOU. I don't think we need an outside source telling us what sort of "career" this has become. We already know because we live it everyday....that is the "daily reminders" that we have. It is not being swept under the rug by those of us who have to live it daily. Tell it to the govt officials who keep sending jobs overseas, etc. That's like telling homeless people, "hey, guess what? You're homeless." They already know that, and so do we. Nobody on MTStars is being kept in the dark, believe me! Anybody that comes here and can read surely knows what is going on.
please, its hard enough. Prefer to deal with it, not dwell on it over and over. - want to inform? take out an ad. anon2

To the naysayers about this reminder, there's someone on the company board asking - about line rate increaes

[ In Reply To ..]

and? - what does that matter?

[ In Reply To ..]
This place is strange today.

I so agree. - anon2

[ In Reply To ..]

reeks of'look at me, look at me' with no content, really.

and they get answers by asking their questions.... - anon

[ In Reply To ..]
not by having someone else hawk it in their ears every few days that they will never get a pay increase. Like rubbing salt in an open wound. If they have questions about the industry, they will ask and usually get an answer. If they don't get the answer they are looking for, let 'em find out for themselves....sometimes that is the only way people will learn anything. trial and error.

Let them find out themselves?? Nope, will post reminders. - nm

thank you! I for one am a cluless idiot! - no offense but coming off as knowitall. SM
[ In Reply To ..]
we do have minds that are in working order. We do curently work the situation dealing with it daily. You need not tell or remind as if we don't get it. You think you know better than us - 35 years here, facing reality every day.

Go inform the new kids on the block on the NEW MTs board if you want to be some kind of light bulb going off. That is where you will be of use.

Just a reminder... - lovalashMT

I know it's hard for those of us trapped at MQ to hang on.  I am one of them too.  No jobs out there right now and I'm taking courses.  But I have to make something to somewhat survive so I have to stay.

I put in the request to have those scores changed and in each case it will bring those audits to up above 99%.  Review and speak up when they are wrong! ...

REMINDER: Status And Pay For Work On VA Accounts

Since there have been postings in the past couple of days by MTs who are working on VA accounts who seemingly are being paid by the line, here is a reminder. If you work on VA accounts, you must have employee status and be paid the Wage Determination Rate specific to that county.  You can look up  your specific WDR on the federal government's Wage Determinations Online website.  The link is below. Also, you must be paid for ALL work you perform, and this includes looking up ...

Major Changes - What Next

Hi All. Hope you are healthy and doing well in general. I'm new to posting on this site, though have been following it for years, receiving some invaluable information and tips. Thank you for that. Recently, however, I've been faced with upcoming termination in a few months due to my current employer's decision to outsource to Amphion. I know very little about this company, though from what I am learning it sounds like MTs are earning anywhere from 8-14 dollars per hour. Can anyon ...


OK I Have A Major Issue At TTS - Anyone Else?
May 07, 2010

I work for a company whose initials are TTS.  I was told that QA works on editing and transcribing too and QA has the ability to assign work to themselves.  In other words not only do they take work away from the MT but they can choose which work/dictators they want to do.  Isn't this a conflict of interest?   I know other companies do not allow double dipping but it was confirmed to me TTS does this and that the QA people have the ability to pick and cho ...

Am I The Only One Getting Major Alerts Almost Every Day???

It seems like every morning when I check my email there is at least one major alert in my box - no critical - but always something that they are complaining about.  The one today was completely ridiculous, I don't want to be too specific just in case they read this board but I did what they said I didn't do.  Going to contest but so maddening!!!  It seems the harder I try the more they just pick me apart about stuff. ...
