What a smack in the face! Just looked at my pay stub for the 1st time - MQer


Posted: Nov 11, 2010

in a few months. I get direct deposit and rarely check my pay stubs on line. I've been doing significantly more lines this month so I wanted to see exactly what I make per line on ASR. I went from 6.75 to .555!! What? I am SO upset and disappointed. Why didn't they tell me about this huge cut in pay? Here I was calculating my lines at the 6+ rate, only to see on my pay stub that I've been making substantially less per line. I feel sick! I am going to contact my supe, but I don't get it. My MT rate is the same. Was there a cut that I didn't hear about? I can't work this hard on ASR for 5 cents per line. No effin way.

It took me almost 6 hours to do 800 lines as it is! Do the math! That's just working for peanuts. I'm so *****

Um, they can't just cut your pay w/o telling you can they? - Kiki1

I mean, I know they cut your pay for over 5% QA but that is by 3 cents a line. I'd definitely call your CCM tomorrow. I'd be so effin pissed too. Maybe they are sneakily cutting the rate by just a little bit thinking we won't notice. Um, if THEY lived paycheck to paycheck they'd noticed! Now, I think I better go check MY paystub.

Yikes! - anon

I never open my paystubs, just check the amount of deposit. After reading what happened to you, I just checked it, and it looks okay - 40% less per line for ASR, which I mostly all I get.

I also looked at my year-to-date. I don't think I'll even break $20k this year. Wasn't too many years ago I earned #45k.

yep I made 45K a few yrs ago 2 - now I am lower than u

have faith, u can get lower.

Yikes! - kittykat

Is there a way to see you pay stub online or do you have to wait till it comes in the mail? If so, let me know, please. Thanks
It depends. - ...........

If you receive your check in the mail, you will get your pay stub with your paper check.

If you get direct deposit, you will not get a paper check stub in the mail.

The pay stub, if you have direct deposit, is available online.

The website is: https://ipay.adp.com/iPay/login.jsf

You have to register. Then, every payday, you can view, save, print, etc., your pay stubs.

I hope MTStars does not mind me posting this site URL. MQ has a history of not letting people know how to access information that they need.
It depends - sarmt

not true. Paper pay stubs still come snail mail even with direct deposit. One must sign up to receive pay stub online

Down another $80 myself - How low can they go?

Before we start to wonder? It totally blows me away when I have to virtually retype a 1174(s) report on ASR because it is so obviously wrong (First Time Right? Not even close!) But supposedly I have exceeded my monthly limit for F11'ing the garbage. ?? Lawsuit anyone? I'm documenting.

How low can they go? - jumpin jack flash

There was a post on here by someone called Whisper regarding a lawsuit, but I think it mysteriously disappeared along with the couple of replies to it when I saw it???

Noticed that too - anon

Somewhere, although I just looked for it and couldn't find it, there are rules for posting on MTStars. That thread was probably considered volatile or inflammatory (there's a word for it) and removed by the moderators.

hmm, they cut pay all the time, 1st time for u?? - join the crowd :(

we all work for peanuts

Welcome to my world. - I check my stubs

online EVERY pay period and have opened a case with the Dept of Labor.

They have screwed me out of a lot of money.

DON'T let it go. I have been screwed out of PTO, I have not been paid for lines typed, I have not been paid for down time, I have not been paid proper min wage when not getting line count due to NJA, and I have not been paid for the 15 minute wait period we must wait before logging out for NJA.

The squeaky wheel gets the grease, and I am starting to get my grease.

Don't let them get away with it. I still have my job, and I am actually getting retribution as well.

Help! Pay Stub Question!
Mar 27, 2010

So I've been at Medquist about 2 months and this last paycheck was my first all-production check. I only make 0.05 cents a line and it has ME 0.05 and MT 0.05 and then it has my lines. The lines match what is on Doc Q Manage, but I don't see how it is a 60% rate for editing. I hope it's right because I am getting paid way more than I thought I would. Does everyone else's paystub have the same rate for ME and MT? Or is this an error and they are going to come back and tak ...

Regarding Paychecks. I Looked At How Many Hours
Jan 10, 2010

I decided to look how many hours left in PTO and it was deducted today because I used some PTO on this paycheck that should have been deposited in my account yesterday morning.  I think that is good news?  Payroll doing their job?  Maybe it means paychecks should be in our accounts in pending mode which should be deposited first and then deductions taken out next.  Otherwise, my direct deposit check would not show until the 12th which to me, is one day late.  ...


Minimum Wage On Pay Stub

I am not making a ton of money, but my hourly average is more than minimum wage. Now I am getting really paranoid. Of course, I am in the over 10 cpl category. This just can't be right, but I fear it has put me on some big-wig's termination radar. ...

Pass on some of that wealth!  Again, if you' ...
