Am I on the road to getting fired?

I wouldn't think so - Nuance MT

I have heard that Nuance puts people back on NON DSP status to help them improve their scores and/or have trainings to attend. I am sure that your TL would talk with you before you get fired.

don't worry - new but old

Yeah she's right - in fact I think they give you a couple of paychecks (at least they did me) and I had 2 back to back ones where I was just underneath and so they put me back on NON DSP for awhile - which is a little nerve wracking because it seemed like they were nitpicking over every little thing then but I made it through and was put back on DSP last week so don't worry about it. I definitely think though that if they put everybody on NON DSP they would probably find errors with everybody that would bring their percentages down because most of the stuff is small stuff; commas, colons, etc

How long did they keep you on non-DSP status?

Asked to resign - Molly

I had 2 back-to-back 97% and I was told I could do 5 jobs a day for 5 days and if I did not do better I would be fired. I asked to be laid off and they laughed, said for me to resign. I moved on. I had been with Transcend 7 years.

97% - new but old

I was on non DSP for over a month for sure; I had one phone call with my QC lead who was very nice and went over different things and I voiced my frustration to her about time spent trying to find things and getting marked off for things which I felt was wrong and she actually had a lot of stuff reversed for me and agreed with me. I got put on another account which is great and almost completely straight typing now and since I have been on that my percentage went up and I got an email a few days ago that I was back to DSP. But I was definitely non DSP for quite awhile.

What is DSP, non DSP? - Thanks

Keystrokes pays on the 1st and the 15th. Technically they do not have to pay until Monday, Janaury 3, 2011. I was wondering, however, if maybe it was the 31st because of holiday etc. Not here last year so do not know. Thanks if anyone knows. ...

I have always double spaced my reports when I transcribed unless the client profile told me otherwise. I have noticed most of my ASR reports are single spaced and some are double, even on the same client. What is the standard for spacing regarding ASR? Thanks guys! I couldn't get any email back on what is what! ...

Anyone else having issues with the speech engine just randomly forgetting periods. As in, it knows the sentence has ended, has capitalized the next word or put in a paragraph carriage return, but there is no punctuation to be found. It used to be there'd be a missing one every now and again at the end of a paragraph, but this morning it's every other sentence. Happy Earth Day! ...

Can someone enlighten me as to how the pay periods run for these 2 companies? Is it every other Friday, every 2 wks, maybe someone can tell me when the first pay period in January is for each, I am trying to make a decision and the pay dates are going to make a difference, don't like getting paid twice a month, would prefer every other week on a set date. Thanks ...

I'm doing a psych clinic report and the doctor uses the patient's words in quotes often, and he always dictates it with the period after the quotes, which I learned is wrong, but I am wondering if the entire sentence isn't a quote, only the last part, does that still hold true, such as: The patient states he is tired, doesn't sleep and is "run down" Does the period go before or after the quotes? Thanks ...

Hi All! I just signed with Precyse and I know they will fill me in on all the details, but it's 8 at night and I was just curious about the dates of their pay periods. I know that they pay every 2 weeks. Can someone tell me the next pay date, please? Thanks! ...

I started using AutoCorrect for my expanders. The problem is when I use them followed by a period they won't work. So "t" doesn't turn into "the" just "t." They work after any other punctuation or a space. I've scoured the internet and Microsoft forums and I can't find a thing. I've tried turning off the auto-caps and that doesn't work. Help? ...

I would just leave it as is,,but there is no continuity within the reports, sometimes 1 sometimes 2. Same with colons. Now I have to check every single period, if it is at a margin, it is a real pain. This is why I firmly believe we are sll editing some foreigners work on a regular basis. I never too the editor test, I want no part of it. ...

Have worked for a couple different MTSO's over the last few years. When copying and pasting prior reports I have typed into a new blank document, I have noticed 1 space has been removed after every period, colon, etc. Anyone else notice this? If the MTSO's are removing that 1 space, on every report, for every MT, I can't fathom how much $ that would save them in compensation payout... (over a month, over a year!); yet still charging the cl ...

Okay, got the shift differential figured out but now I am totally confused as to the pay periods start and end dates. I have an email from Cathy Jones with Nuance that says this pay period runs from 12/22 to 1/4, which I think would be correct as it is 2 weeks. My TL sent us an email this morn saying we have until 1/2 to approve our timecards and the pay period ended last night at midnight!!! What? Don't we work two weeks and then get paid???? Please explain. Also, have no ...

have been noticing over the last 3 or 4 weeks that the sytem is not consistently putting 2 spaces after periods. Used to not have to worry about this, but just one more thing to have to watch. Also having to now watch auto expansions and change them back to the accepted short form. Anyone else? Or have I just been here wayyyyyy to long? Make it a great day everyone! A lot of times y'all make mine! ...

I just don't know what else I can do without really doing any proofreading. I never ever had this problem before. I am lucky enough to still do straight typing but the program is slow and I do have several accts in my pool which we all know is not the best way to work when you work on production. I am looking for another job and actually had 2 interviews outside of MT and I am just hoping and praying, but in the meantime I have never been so frustrated and downright angry ...
