good suggestion for a great set of headphones?

Hi...My headphones bit the dust. I like over-the-ear headphones. It is hard to find a store that has a setup so you can listen to the sound quality. What brands/models do you all like for better voice discrimination? Thanks in advance. ...

I would like some good input on a "good" set of headphones. I have used Bose QuietComfort in-ear headphones, which work fine, but I am looking for something with better clarity. I have tried Sennheiser HD 598, but can hear others around me at times. I am partially deaf in my right ear due to several ear infections in my adult years. I want to see what other folks are using and decide which ones to purchase. I look forward to your feedback and suggestions. Thank you in advance for yo ...

Just wondering what kind of headphones are really good. I am using Dictaphone headphone and I love them but they are about to die on me. I have tried others in the past and the sound quality isn't that great. Any suggestions would be appreciated. ...

I recently decided that I wanted to invest in a really good pair of headphones because I'm tired of having to purchase new ones every 6 months with the cheap ones. I bought a pair of Bose SoundTrue on ear headphones and loved them for the first few hours... I'm not sure how headphones are giving me such shoulder pains but they are. Does anyone have any suggestions of headphones that you wear all day (6 to 8 hours) and love? ...

I know that most companies are going to VR but since I have only worked in house until now, I have no idea what is considered good or great pay. Can some of you that are happy doing VR and making good or decent wages please share what you consider good or great pay and what is realistic in terms of production? I have heard 3x your regular production, 2x regular production and less production. I am really confused and need to be able to compare apples to apples. Thank you ...

next week. Pay is better than average (MUCH better than MT to be sure), there are awesome bennies, including PTO and vacation and 401k. Take a wild guess where it is. I will be back later and let you all in on who I am with now! ...

I'm always over 200 until I get Mr. Mumblemouth who knows he is not forming actual words when he hums through the PE, as my counts plummet to as loiw as 75 LPH. Then I get a long report from an excellent fast-talking dictator and my LPH jumps to 340. Question: Why is it that the MTSO does not comprehend the fact that our production depends on the capability of the provider to dictate correctly? The horrid dictators are never told they are doing anything wrong as ...

I worked for LabCorp for 7 years - started at $14/hr - left 7 yrs later at $19.86/hour -- company has own credit card for employees - called a Clear Card - available to ALL employees - Regular working hours. EASY transcription!!! Could do it in my sleep! Benefits. Had a lot of overtime if you wanted it - ($28 an hour when I left - at time and a half). I would recommend LabCorp to EVERYONE! They also have data entry if interested. lower pay, though.& ...

The MTSOs DO come this board --I was termiated today as an IC and employer mentioned piosts here -- I have NEVER posted company name on here and to those before -do not send a referance to RE: someone posted on your company -- I may have posted but made it VERY cllear, we are NOT hiiring for the future, read and learn ...

I want to make a suggestion to the MTs out there who are looking for work. Rather than possibly posting on the Jobs Wanted board, post your resume on the Resume Bank. I received a call a week ago Saturday from a company looking for MTs -- they have not posted openings here on MT Stars or on the other board, but they are looking. I know this because I spoke today with the person that hired me. He (as the company rep, mentioned that when he goes to the Resume Board), there ...

It would be great if we could post comments and get responses back via Instant Message. I just recently started using the word board, but I don't think that is available. If it is, please let me know. That would be wonderful!! ...

Anyone have a suggestion of a shortcut for L5-S1, L3-L4, C numbers and T numbers? Have a tough time typing letters and getting the hyphen in and I have to think too hard and get out of my rhythm trying to do these levels for some reason. I use autocorrect. Thanks ...

How about a new board for living frugally in these times? It seems like it would be very popular and helpful to all of us. ...

How about this? For holiday coverage, why not schedule 4-hour shifts instead of 8-hour shifts with hardly anything to do? For example, why not have some MTs commit to the following shifts: 7am-11am 11am-3pm 3pm-7pm 7pm-11pm 11pm-3am 3am-4am I think the MTs would like that idea. They could spend time with family/friends on the holidays without being on call and having to check their queue every 15 minutes or so for some work. They commit and work for 4 hours and are done. I've worked ...

Cheap, cheap, cheap. You should pay your peeps. You could tell the clients NTS cannot keep up with work because people are jumping ship like rats from a hot fire. Perhaps management (upper, way upper I mean) could explain instead of the TLs having to do it, that they needed so much money to take to the bank they had to cut the pay of all their employees, now they have green, not as speedy, uninitiated MTs doing the work. Most of the good ones have fled the scene. And here's another rant: ...

Everyone should make a habit of getting a letter of reference from CURRENT employers even before you are actually looking for another job. All you have to say is that you are updating your resume and want to be sure you have current letters of reference attached as well. It doesn't matter if you are working as an "employee", if they are happy with you and with your work, they should have no problem giving this to you. If you are an "IC", it should be even easier since you ...

This is how we got paid at a major department store when I was a hairdresser: Guaranteed minimum wage for hours worked. If our production exceeded minimum wage we were paid a percentage of that production on top of the minimum wage, usually 40%. I would love to have MTs guaranteed at least a minimum wage for hours worked (or waiting to work) and anything we produce that exceeds that wage should be paid at the customary cpl. This would encourage higher production, benefitting th ...

Some of you don't need me to tell you this, but others might benefit from this advice. Reading through the posts on this coding training, I am seeing some legitimate questions and concerns, but also some that are so off the wall that they are either the product of the world's worst paranoid or someone who is intentionally trying to discourage you. The content and tone is a lot like some of the negativity that gets posted on the coding board every time some one asks about coding ...

You know that's your aim anyway. That way you can save money on all the middlemen and enforcers, i.e. you can stop making good QA/QC people into inquisitors. If you want to offer a true bonus, just let everyone know they will make 7 c/l, THEN offer incentives, that way at least we know we can expect the base salary and the bonus will truly be a bonus, not a penalty. There are a lot of companies that only pay that 7 cents per line, who have QA staff who are there to actually guide the MT a ...

Hi, can anyone tell me if Autocorrect has a suggestion box that stays open while you type? I had been using Shorthand for 8 years and then just got a new job where they won't allow us to use anything but Autocorrect. It is their computer, a Thin Client, which does not allow you to upload anything. With Shorthand and Instant Text a suggestion box pops up showing you all the possible shortcuts and I can see in Autocorrect where you can type in your shortcut and the expansion that it repres ...

I have tried to explain to manager that the program is slow, and does not seem to ever correct a lot of "normal" dictation, so I have come here to ask a question of you. I feel that we are not getting enough keystroke count for these jobs. I have had lengthy jobs with small actual counts because of all the repairing (MEing), and pickiing up of nearby conversations, using markers judiciously as requested. None of these markers are included in the count that I can see, but they a ...

Am I doing something wrong? Are you supposed to edit the list before or after CTRL-Shift L. I end up having to capitalize all the first letters after I hit enter and it just seems more time consuming. Also, did anyone notice if you highlight text and hit space bar there is no skip marker- SHH!! ...

I want to extend a great big THANK YOU to everybody who has posted on this board, both good and bad. I never took the negativity personally or to heart. In fact, I considered it a lesson that I needed to learn with respect to the way this industry has deteriorated. That coupled with my sciatica (only when sitting) convinced me that it was time to move on once and for all, which I have. I would like to see others in this industry do the same. The biggest problem for me was findin ...

Won't mention any particular company here, but I am compelled to comment on the quality of the software. I have never worked with anything this complicated in my entire MT career (25+ years). Demographics are a nightmare. Database for CCs is......I don't have words to adequately describe the mess. If I enter information into the *fields* too quickly, the system locks up. If I enter more than one search option, the system locks up. If I use SH, Ex-Text or other ex ...

Keep track of every job you send to QA with blanks or other. Compare job numbers to those jobs that come back with major errors. Want to bet that most of those jobs we have a hard time with are the very same jobs that we are getting marked down for? Most likely the very blank or the very problem we had is what the major error is for. ...

Can someone please recommend a good word expander program? I am looking for something that is compatible with XP, Vista and Windows 7. Thank you! ...

It's very simple and I am very serious: 1. If you are unhappy with how the MT career is changing, unhappy with the new pay (it won't go back up, folks, only down further), unhappy with changes in technolog, etc.: Do something THIS YEAR to get out of MT work completely. Don't feel you can venture too far from it? Do something like coding/billing. Want to stay in the medical world? How about LPN or RN? Dental Hygienist? HR speci ...

I'm not sure where to post this... The resume bank is a great resource, but I wish it was a little more flexible. For example, the section where you describe what kind of work you're looking for is restricted to choices on the drop-down menu. Some of us wear different hats and are looking for IC work if we can get it and/or an employee position if it's a good one. So multiple choices or even free text might be more suitable. Just a thought. Thanks! ...
