Minimum of 2000 lines per day at TTS? - sm
Posted: Jun 06, 2015
At Mmodal, our minimum requirement is 1200 lines per day. That's an awful big difference! Do people have trouble making 2000 lines at TTS? Is this a way to get out of providing benes? (I ask because I worked for a small MTSO years ago who used that method.) Or are the platform and accounts so great that it is actually achievable on a regular basis?
I hoipe you are talking about editing and not transcription. - Amber
[ In Reply To ..]I have never been able to achieve that much and it is because of horrible dictators, pauses and the off-keyboard work they require we do. TTS does limit you to one minute to search for doctor's names, that would increased your speed as that task kills your production. MTSOs are too cowardly to request the doctors spell the foreign names so production takes a hit. When they ask in an interview if I can do 250 LPH I saw "yes" because I can...IF I don't have to search demographics, decipher a horrid dictator, sit through pauses while they review a chart or eat dinner, and if I don't have to look up foreign doctor names.
Hope! - Amber

TTS Line counts - Gigi
[ In Reply To ..]Yes they are very hard to make. When I got my first feedback, I was making over the required amount of typing lines and under the required amount of SR lines and they said it was due to my mouse usage. That owner is cuckoo and is an authority freak..Good luck with that nut
Yea to the mouse, I can and do make - over 2000 lines per day
[ In Reply To ..]Last pay period had counts of 2400, 2500 and 2600 plus for several days. Always use the mouse. Not hard for me to make those counts at all. My work is almost 100% VR. TTS has never said 1 word about my lack of lines, in fact was told some of the highest.
They look more at LPH than lines per day - TTS MT
[ In Reply To ..]Edited minimum is 250 LPH. Straight-typed LPH minimum is 125. I work part-time and have no problem getting over 250 LPH on my account.

Is There Anyone Out There That Really Averages 2000 Lines Per Day On SR?
May 16, 2012
I ask because I took a job paying 4.5 to 5 cpl for SR using Dictaphone Enterprise Express Editor. I was told that the minimum productivity for SR was 2000 lines per day and for typed lines was 1000 lines per day. Of course, I never get straight transcription. The most I have been able to do in SR on a good day was 1760 lines and that was being chained to my PC for 8 straight hours with only a 30 minute lunch. I'm thinking that maybe I could do 2000 lines in a day if ...

When Did The Minimum LPH (Lines Per Hour) Go To 186?

OK...someone enlighten me please. When did the minimum LPH go to 186? Did I miss something in any of the various webinars? Work faster, produce more lines, work more efficiently, make less errors, correct the MDs errors, work outside your shift regularly if you run out of work on regular shifts, help your fellow employees -- all for less pay. I'm ABSOLUTELY frustrated :( ...

It was never an issue of me hitting my $450 or not. Now all of a sudden my job is in jeopardy because I'm not hitting it. I work evenings so I can have help with my kids, but now I'm having to flex days as well to try to meet these lines (horrible ESL and losing a lot of my blank lines ha ...

Min Wage Means More Minimum Lines Per Day
Jan 28, 2015
So, I probably missed this in another post but just got an e-mail from our admin ass't saying I didn't make the minimum lines for the past pay period so will be getting paid minimum wage. Had not realized my state raised their minimum wage for 2015 (my fault for not reading that somewhere) but that just means I now have to up my minimum lines by 20. Cripe, 2000 per day was bad enough. There are only so many hours in the day people. Plus, I got "scolded" for havi ...
Minimum Wage Versus Lines Per Hour.
Jan 02, 2013
So I have been very careful not clocking in when work is low because I don't want my LPH to suffer, BUT.....Is there anyone out there who just clocks in and takes the reports slow as they come and accepts the minimum wage? Do you get "naughty" emails from your lead telling you that you need to pick it up or clock out? I hope this makes sense. It just occurec to me that minimum wage would be better than no wage when work is low. ...

We recently received an e-mail stating that Nuance had discovered that the line count was charging incorrectly, as instituted by them, and they had been crediting us with MORE lines than we were actually doing and overcharging the client. Now get this, they informed us that they would not make US pay it back, for their mistake, but that our new lines would re ...
