sad. Now I am listening to '80s music and dancing in my underwear and feeling better. Thompson Twins, Cyndi Lauper, Depeche Mode and who could forget this one?

I may have to do that here in a little bit. And light a fire in the fire pit.

full time job and a set schedule and when I was bought out they told me "we are so big you will never run out of work!"
*sigh* Time for another tune!
I am so sick of these dictations that are less than 60 seconds long, pay from .08 to .24 cents each that require 3 minutes of unpaid work to set up. This means I am only paid for one third of my time working, and that is if all their resource-hog software just happens to be working right without locking up or generation another error mesasage requiring another 5 minutes unpaid time to go through the "start ANOTHER IT ticket" process.
I think out only hope is to keep filling letting their da ...
I am not really positive I completely buy into the fact that this illnesses is of such s/l reparation as his gamma globulin levels have been a little bit elevated and I wonder if there is more chronicity than we think. ...

It is time to cease being a humble servant and realize the power that you as ONE have.

I am on a team that does editing only on one specific platform (although there are many versions of it). We recently had schedule changes. Prior to the schedule changes, I had work. Now...not so much. They DOUBLED the amount of editors on accounts that were already overstaffed. I am completely and utterly disheartened by this. I was, until this point, ready to stay with this company for as long as it took for them to work things out. What a demoralizing ...
Just need to vent. Having a very, very bad day. I have worked and worked to try to be a success at this job and now most days I just sit and cry while I type. I am so overwhelmed by the horrible pay and only hearing from the email that more needs to be done. More lines, less pay. How sad for a job that should be considered very important in the health care role. Thanks for listening. ...
Can you qualify for that weekly based on, I guess the previous week? Or something?
I got a very unusual surprise - MORE pay than I expected, rather than less (which is the usual), and realized somehow I had qualified for production even though I thought I was out, thinking that was a 3 month thing too, so wasn't even trying, just trying to get more lines since I had lost out, I thought, on all bonuses.
So can someone confirm production bonus is based on last week's QA post audit - or ...
Up to now, I have hardly ever run out of work but the last 2 weeks it has become steadily more and more and here I sit on a Tuesday morning with no work. I hope to God we are not losing this account because it is an awesome account. I cannot sit here and work all day as I have a second job that I work also. This is truly killing me!! Might as well go back to bed ...
I was trying to keep a positive outlook on a buy out and go with this company. The account I've worked on for years is almost gone and it sure didn't take long since the takeover. I know their pattern and how much work should be there. I'm certain it's being "shipped out" you know where. My Thursday was the busiest day of the week and has been for years. So now I sit here looking for work and getting more disappointed each day.

I looked at all the forums and read all the primary posts (not the replies) and cannot find if the Moderator has addressed this, so if I missed it, sorry. If not, does anyone know if the posts that are falling off Page 1 will be brought back when all the updates are complete and the archives are available?
I was looking for something that was posted on the first or second day when the new upgrade had just been done, and realized that what I had posted on the 8th (the day the upgrade ...
Okay-- finally got a few jobs to do after hours of NJA. But I lost my rhythm. I don't even know what to do with them. I feel like a cat looking at some strange object on the floor and tapping it with its paw. What are those two weird things in my queue? I look at them. Then I check my email. Then I look at the things in the queue again. Then I go get something to drink. In the back of my mind, it seems like there is something I need to do about those things in my queue, but I can' ...
I have had two job offers this morning and they are two completely different scenarios. 1st offer...80% VR 20% ESL 8 cpl typing 5 cpl VR, new program to learn. 2nd offer...100% straight typing 25% ESL 8.5 cpl typing, program already experienced on. Between VR editing and straight typing options, which is going to give me more money. I know this board is going to be full of both opinions, but will read them all. I'm not revealing the compan ...

I'm utterly confused regarding this latest merger/acquisition/whatev of MQ of M*Modal. I just accepted a position with an MTSO working on the M*Model platform. Does the fact that the Q purchased M*Modal mean that down the road I will be working for MQ? Does this mean that MQ just owns the rights to M*Model and now has the ability to charge the MTSOs obscene amounts of money to continue to use the platform? Does this affect our positions as MTs who do work on M*Model ...

being so micromanaged? I usually do not run out of work but due to no work for 1 day back a few weeks ago I have been slammed with 30+ accounts and not a day goes by that I do not get client profile updates for at least 1 of them. Some of these accounts I haven't even worked on yet and I am getting changes to the client profile. How is anyone capable of remembering so many different rules plus changes to the rules you didn't know in the first place. We must make our l ...
Don't get me wrong, they are nice ladies, but they are just so very clueless. I just recently got a job here and I am in heaven. It is a small rural hospital (60 beds) with a staff of 6 transcriptionists in house. The dictators are fabulous. Sure there are some difficult ones, but nothing I can't handle especially when you consider that it is a short list and I transcribe the same dictators repeatedly on a daily basis. It is NICE! My background ...

My whole week is off. If you look at line count for each day, it shows it correctly. If you go from the 16th to today, COMPLETELY SCREWED UP!!! ...
I am on working right now and had to get away and vent on her for a second because the editing with voice wreck is SOOOO bad right now, I am putting way more effort into the reports than what I am getting paid for. There are amazingly stupid mistakes, whole sentences missing, other sentences made up that are nothing like the dictator is saying. If this is going to be the way it is tonight, it's gonna be a short night for me. I refuse to make crap pay for this kind of work. ...
I don't know how anyone can completely proofread each report without going way down on their line count and also running up your idle minutes past 15. Any ideas out there? ...
I have not seen how long our pay would be dropped the 3 cents. Am I missing something? Is it just that pay period or the next week or what? I just don't see that. I spoke up and am having a conference call with the "team" tomorrow and I really would like to know how long our pay would be deducted. Peronally I can't afford to have my pay deducted and if you can (mq mts), then you are lucky. I have not had a pay raise in 9 years and all of this is goin ...
