Posted: Oct 13, 2012

My CCM seems to think I just need to change my hours (did that already, helped for a short while then back to NJA)........not to mention I can't bc I have another PT job to make up for having to go PT. Has anyone PT had to file for unemployment bc of NJA and gotten it? Thanks for all replies!

Each state is different. In KY and other states, there is a 1 week waiting period. I was without work the first week of the year, and was unable to draw for that week because of it. I was crap out of luck. It's best to check what your state's rules and regulations are. It's also one of the many reasons I left Mmodal. Good luck.

Great Line Counts Require Great Dictators.
Feb 11, 2015

I'm always over 200 until I get Mr. Mumblemouth who knows he is not forming actual words when he hums through the PE, as my counts plummet to as loiw as 75 LPH.   Then I get a long report from an excellent fast-talking dictator and my LPH jumps to 340.   Question:  Why is it that the MTSO does not comprehend the fact that our production depends on the capability of the provider to dictate correctly?   The horrid dictators are never told they are doing anything wrong as ...

FYI - Those Who Might Apply With Teletrak
Jan 16, 2011

Just want to be sure my fellow MTs are well informed.  If you apply at Teletrak, be prepared to be offered 8 cpl for 65 VBC line - this amounts to approximately 30% reduction in pay with the negative spaces.  I used several old reports and figured line counts all ways and it was almost 30% less each time with VBC.  I was told by the recruiter, "You'll probably have to work a few extra hours a day to make what you're used to, but in order to keep the client in a long-term ...
