Is paying for a different time zone legal?

It has been inconvenient, and maybe a bit confusing at times, to check my time card hours for my shift as, because of my time zone, part of my hours show up on the next day because I work 2nd shift. I wonder if I will get overtime for yesterday, even though I did not work overtime. I had to start work several hours early because of maintenance, so all hours were completed before the hour my hours start showing up on the next day. Fine. But the last couple hours of yesterday show up as today, ...

to the endless QAing is done. Do you read intensely, do you learn much, is it tossed, is it sort of a maze for you to go through?

Hello forum users! I am currently very interested in the MT field. I am a fast typist, excellent speller, I have a good grasp of grammar, etc. I am eyeing a course offered online, it seems professional and excellent and all that. The whole thing seems perfect for me! I would like to work from home and make my own hours while doing this. However, I recently spoke to a neighbor who is an MT, and she is losing her job to a machine. She also claims that her MT friend ...

I've been looking at the job ads and have noticed a trend of very low cpl being offered. Are there still any companies out there paying 9 or above?

I recently started working as an independent contractor for a transcription company and understand that I have to take care of the tax side of it myself. I'm new to this and am not sure what I need to do as far as paying taxes go. Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! ...

So I was having lunch with an ex-transcriptionist (got out when the getting was good) and I told her about the docking of 0.03 as of May 1 if we hit 5% QA submission. She brought up a good point. Is this even Legal???? If this is done then I am assuming MANY out there will be working BELOW minimum wage. This can't be done can it? Doesn't the Q have to pay you at LEAST minimum wage? I try to maintain 1800+ lines a day and if I lose 0.03 and do the mat ...

work 6 days a week, even though it adds up to 40 hours a week? Our supervisor is trying to force us to work 2 hours every Friday night. This means only one full day off.
