Over 2200 lines in one shift! BOO YA~~ - If I sit still, I do amazing things. My best EVER!
Posted: Jul 24, 2011
Good thing I don't get paid per report anymore. I wouldn't be this happy! LOL
all good till you get an audit - cant speed through ya know
[ In Reply To ..]just sayin
Who says she sped through? - She said she sat still
[ In Reply To ..]She didn't say she was careless, just worked hard.
Why do you want to rain on her parade?
OP: Congrats!!!!
because it is impossible to edit that many lines - at 99% accuracy in one shift
[ In Reply To ..]Thats why! Impossible unless, of course, you are not editing word for word!
But the sad part of it is, this person probably wont get an audit and a long-timer will have their work torn to shreds and fired due to quality.
maybe impossible for you, but not everyone. - NM

I did it straight transcribing - No ASR
[ In Reply To ..]My average audit score is 99.9%. It's okay if people are negative. I am staying positive, and grateful.
But the question is - how did you sit still for 8 hours?
[ In Reply To ..]That seems to be the bane of long-term MTs everywhere. As a matter of fact, anybody who knows anything about ergonomics and what is good for the body generally, says that it is not a good idea. Still yet, it is absolutely necessary to get high production numbers consistently. Whatever you did, congrats and I hope you can keep it up. An inspiration you are.
Honestly, it just happens that way sometimes - A good day looks like
[ In Reply To ..]I don't get up and do other things (like laundry, loading dishwasher, etc), the dictators I am getting are the "good" ones, I am not checking MTStars....those days I can sit and really get work done. Yesterday, I strayed a little, but managed to get over 1500 lines. I just have to make myself "work" when I am working. Stop answering the phone, turn off the TV, only open IE to look up words, etc. I wish us all luck. It can get so hard to stay focused, especially when there is no one there with us to hold us accountable. Good luck to all of us!
If its SR work, still not 100 bucks. sad - #notimpressed
[ In Reply To ..]no bueno

Question About Lines Per Shift And Per Payperiod
Oct 27, 2012
I'm just starting a new job and I'm not sure but I think they said 562.5 lines per shift and I'll only be working 3-hour shift. Again I'm not sure but think she said 5625 lines per payperiod. I know I should've paid closer attention when we were talking but I was trying to write down everything she said and I know I missed some and these line counts was one of them. After the weekend is over, I'll call and double check on things. I just didn't want to wait ...

Is It True That FOCUS, Only Counts Half Of Your Lines When Calculating VR Lines?
Jan 30, 2012
if you make 4 cents per line at 1000 lines a day, they really calculate it at 500 lines per day x 4 cents, making it really 2 cents per line for the full 1000. I heard this, and I am really interested in knowing if it is true. ...
Told Nuance Was Overcharging For Lines, Now Lines Drastically Reduced
May 02, 2012
My main account was a good one, and the lines were very good, mostly ER work. I have been on this account for over a year and a half now. 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 ...
TransTech Lines - Required Hours But Are Short Lines?
Jun 10, 2011
What do you do when you have the required hours but are short lines? I got an email that I need to "make plans to have my shortage made up." The only problem is that I'm up to date with my hours for the pay period so far. The other problem is that I have plans Saturday night and Sunday (both being my scheduled time off) that don't include TransTech. It's getting harder and harder to defend this company when they can't hold up their end of the agreement and continually ...

TransTech Lines - How Many Lines Do You Average Per Day
Jul 13, 2011
How many lines do you average per day - VR and traditional? I know it's been VERY slow lately, but when things are going well, how many lines do you normally get? I'm trying to figure out where the average numbers are. For me, I do about 350 trad and about 1400 VR in 8 hours. Well, my timesheet says 8 hours, but my clock says that number MAY(!) be a little higher. Again, these are numbers I pull when things are going well and I'm not waiting for work to download. I'v ...

Third Shift
Dec 10, 2009
I was wondering if it's really worth it to work the 3rd shift? Does the additional CPL really make that much of a difference. Does the workload stay steadier during that time?

Would anybody working this shift let me know how it works out as far as sleep, daytime errands, etc.? ...

About 1/3 of those 100% QA reports were done by ILPs. Total average earnings per hour: a little over 4 $, but I will be paid at my state's minimum wage. Before my in-house hospital job was outsourced to an MTSO that kept the work in the country for 2 years and then sent it to India, I was being paid 19 $ an hour and also had great benefits and PTO. When did this "profession" turn into a minimum wage job ? (actually, half of minimum wage if ...
