Left Hand Issue
Mar 26, 2014

Have been having a very aggravating issue lately with my left hand.  There is no pain, no numbness, no temperature change issues, but rather a lack of coordination in regards to my left hand pinky and ring fingers only.  When trying to put hands on home keys or use the pinky or ring finger they curl up and I almost have to physically straighten them.  Not sure if started overnight or gradually just gotten worse, but has defiitely been bad for a week or so.  Making me CRA ...

Tech Help - Making A Comma With The Left Hand
Sep 18, 2014

I could increase my speed a lot if I could find some way to make a comma with my left hand.  I'm using my right hand to control the ==> cursor, and I have an ESL dictator who never says "comma" and a POS speech recognition software that never puts in commas, so I have 25 commas per report to put in. Is there any way to designate comma (,) to another key?  I have a Microsoft ergometric keyboard.   Thanks. ...

Holding My Breath

Okay, the platform was down for a bit this morning but, other than that, I've had enough work for my 4-hour shift. Last week, I had 3 days where the work was light but now it seems to be back to normal. However, I haven't had anything from my 6 backup accts, -- don't know the reason. Now I'm paranoid and find that suspicous. I still don't know if I'm safe or not. Mgr is leaving soon, so maybe they're waiting to clean house in our region at that time. I ...

Who knows how the companies choose  and what they actually go by.  Too many services worked for?  One would not think so because they all know how cut-throat they are and how they treat the employees. Does anyone even know how they come up with this huge linecount and then only benefits if you produce huge numbers every single day, and now we have a new rate now that VR is in full swing.   Where are the guidelines?  They can give you pennies and you have to be happy ...
