Saw a job offer for .05 per 45 black characters?

Exactly what does that end up being translated into a usual 65 character line with spaces? I'm feeling like I need a math degree to figure out what I'm going to get paid lately. ...

I have been offered a job where the dictation comes through in audio minutes. The pay they have offered is per every so many characters. Characters are easy to find in Word, but how do I figure out what that pay equals in minutes or hours per audio? Thanks to anyone who knows what I'm trying to say. LOL ...

Can anyone tell me what the benefits of getting paid based on character count is versus line pay? How should that be computed? ...

I have seen threads that state they were making more $$$ with Amphion even though they pay characters without spaces. Makes no sense, but if dictation is better that certainly would be possible. Anyone working there care to comment on this subject (especially working on Escription)? ...

I am desperate for any solutions to this problem and I am hoping some kind individual can offer advice. When I am typing in the platform I use, report will be going welll when suddenly the wrong characers start typing. This does not happen in my own documents such as Word Pad. The problem seems to be only in the platform I am using for transcription. Has anyone experienced something similar? Solution? Many thanks in advance. ...

I'm thinking 36, but want to make sure..I was bored today and kept track of pretty much everything I did that I don't get paid for, wish I could include time on google looking up information..But ...

I have been offered a job with a company for clinic notes, which are the easiest. As far as schedule goes, I just have to complete it w/in 24-hours. So the kicker is, the pay is $0.05 a line, based on 65 characters with spaces. They only pay once a month. They also use Microsoft counter as well, which I am not sure if that is good or bad. Would you take this position? ...

I have heard that Nuance line counts are not based on 65 characters. Does anyone know what the actual length of the lines would be? Thanks ...

I just got a transcription job and am being paid with Word Count characters without spaces. I was told I would be making 9 cpl but when I figure out the spaces, it's around 7 cpl. Your thoughts on this please. Thanks. ...

Can someone help me out here ? I have forgotten the purpose of this. I work for a company that does transcription in Microsoft Word. Of course you can check your line counts in word, but this company says that isn't right and we have to take the number of characters and spaces and divide by 65 and that is our line count, which is always less than what Word says. Can anybody remember why it's different? Thanks. ...

Anyone ever typed a black sponge in surgery? I listened for "lap" and "lac" but I really hear "black." Context: "We took another rim of skin about a centimeter wider inferiorly until it bled well, as well. This was controlled with electrocautery. The area was then pulse-irrigated. A medium size black sponge was placed over top of this. The more tangential excision was covered with a wound VAC, sponge that had been tangentially shaven in half, and the entire area activated after ...

Tried to submit a PDO a month in advance and got the screen showing dates blacked out. I know it is summer, but give it a break. I really, really need/want this day off. Now do I try to negotiate with my manager or do I feel a fever coming on? ...

Tried to take off much needed time for personal issues that suddenly arose and happened to include Halloween. Was denied because it's a "black-out" day! WTH?!! I don't celebrate Halloween but I do have much needed things that need attention and can't possibly put off because of this miserable minimum wage POS job. Taking it off anyway. Guess I'll get "sick" instead. How I would love to walk into the TSM office and give her the finger. ...

When did this start to happen?? By my calculations, you stand to lose 20-30% of your income. If you have to type a space, why wouldn't you expect to be paid for it??? For me, VBC stands for "victim by choice," which I refuse to be. ...

Doctor has a patient with a black tongue secondary to medication. He gives her a prescritpion for what s/l "mycolatrocious" to apply q.i.d. to the tongue. I rarely have a med I can't find but this one has me stumped! Any suggestions?? ...

I am seeing some companies pay based on VBC but the line counts vary greatly. Does anyone get paid this way and what is considered decent. I have seen 5cpl for 43 character lines but have also seen 7 cpl for a 65 character line. Help! ...

Anyone out there use Citrix and get a black screen instead of log in screen? Any help greatly appreciated!! ...

Do you change "black" to African American? ...

I have worked for 20+ years with two companies and had good reviews and made good money. No problems with meeting production. Left one of the big 2 companies last January after pay cuts, nothing nasty, I just kindly and sincerely expressed my opinion why I was leaving. Since then I've applied with 3 or 4 other companies, was told by one I was on *do not hire list*, but was never given a reason why. Is there something I can do here? I'm a good employee and ...

Just as an experiment...With Saince I typed about 12-13 reports, typed one that was 18 minutes long in the midst of the others. It equaled a little over 400 lines (it was under 420). Now, with a job that pays for spaces, I typed one report 12 min long - 126 lines. Typing 10 reports, I hit 424 lines. The Saince reports were standard type, most 1-1/2 to 2 pages long...ONLY 400 lines??? Most of the ones I just did this morning for another company were mostly 1 page long, VR, dis ...

There are probably only a few people who have used this system. Hopefully, they come onto this board and have used IT with Cerner/RDE (black screen). When I maximize my RDE screen (black), the font is perfect. However, when I attach my word expander (Instant Text) to it, the screen minimizes and the font goes from perfect to just barely visible. Anyone out there using Cerner RDE and IT together who can help me? Thank you, comrades :) ...

I just started Instant Text with Smartype added. Now I have a black box at the top the screen (in Word 2007) with what apparently is part of the smart line in it (it lists the 1,2,3 etc). Does anyone know how to get that to go to the bottom of the screen under the smart line. I've already tried smart line preferences and that did not help. ...

Hi, has anyone ever had problems with Escription when you are editing leaving black marked out lines when you backspace or use the delete button in the text? ...

Does anyone know where to get GOOD quality ones? I've been suckered TWICE by buying them online---they are these little thin things that break every single time before I can get them over the ear piece. The only ones I've found so far that are good are the ones that come with the headset, but I don't want to buy a new headset every time I just need new pads. I'd be so appreciative for advice on where to get good quality ones. TIA!!! ...

I need help with a software line counting program. Excel is acceptable, but I am not sure how to use that aspect. Any help would be appreciated. This is for 65 characters per line with no spaces. Can't that be done in Microsoft Word as well? ...
