Dearest Darlings,
Spring has sprung here at TransTech! Unfortunately, there's no work since apparently all the dictators and patients decided not to go to the hospital.

USING THE BREAK FUNCTION Nov 10, 2009Have you ever used the break function simply because you had a dictator that was so horrible that you got frustrated and sent it back? I know that we are not supposed to do this and that MQ supposedly keeps track of how many breaks we use but I have to admit I have done this no occasion. I had a report so bad a couple of weeks ago which was over 1000 seconds long and an ESL doctor, not to mention scratchy sound, etc. About halfway through this thing I had already spent nearly 2 ...

Just Sick Of It - Give Me A Break! Sep 15, 2010I hate it when "supposedly" the platform is not functioning properly or their system is "down" because I am making way too many lines for your (MTSO) taste. Then, it is finally "fixed" and you give me the worst and oldest dictations available. Who exactly are you kidding? Is this supposed to slow me down so I don't get that many lines.

Unpaid 30 Minute Break And... Jul 22, 2013I don't mind having an unpaid 30-minute break, but the thing that bothers me about some of these companies is the fact that it is tiring sitting at a computer for 8 hours and getting only a 30 minute break. If I want two more 15 minute breaks those can be worked in, but then I have to add back 30 more minutes to my time! I like to at least stretch ever hour or so. :/ ...

Registered Nurse Wants To Break Into MT Field Jan 18, 2010I have been working in this field for many, many years. When I started, it was a little easier to break into this field. It was in an era when everyone didn't work at home and every company didn't require 2 years experience.
