I've seen it both ways. Is one way correct or preferred? Or is either acceptable?
Thanks much in advance!

A compound modifier (also called a compound adjective or a phrasal adjective) is an adjectival or adverbial phrase of two or more words. Compound modifiers can be thought of as grammatically equivalent to single-word modifiers, and can be used in conjunction with other modifiers.
Compound modifiers are hyphenated with the sole purpose of ensuring clarity: thoughtless application of "rules" is of lesser importance than, and may in fact be detrimental to, allowing readers to completely understand what is meant. On the other hand, consistency is valuable, so some guidelines have evolved based on logical requirement.

Oracle does not reply to emails with questions. They evidently only want you to fill in the blanks at their website.

So what is the average top pay most places pay after years of employment? I've been with the same company for many years and get 9 cpl and 1/2 that for SR.

Hi, I would like to know if any of you regular MModal employees truly get to the point of being able to do 20 accounts and make both the lph and QA requirements?
Not looking for the negative flaming.
I personally am really struggling. I just don't know how one can read specs from 2-3 new accounts in an hour with all the peculiarities and still meet above said requirements.
I want it to work. I don't really want a new job. But I feel like we are be ...
Am considering applying with Nuance. Have worked with the M*Modal speech engine before and know that Escription is superior but how much better is what I wonder. Would you be willing to give me an honest estimate of your average productivity in LPH when editing? I don't need inflated numbers just something to go by that reflects a reasonable expectation. Also, what is the minimum LPH required by Nuance when editing?
Thanks in advace. ...
Does anyone know what the AVERAGE transcriptionst makes per hour? Most are paid per line now, but I am just wondering what people are earning per hour. I am a transcriptionst working for an orthopedist. I have 15+ years experience and have been working with this company for a few years now. I am currently being paid 13.90 per hour. I am an independent contractor, so no benefits, PTO, 401K, etc. For some reason I just feel like I am being paid very low consider ...
I currently work for a clinic system who, it seems, is trying to usher us out the door so I've been looking at online companies. It seems plenty pay by the line but I have NO clue how many lines per hour I can even do because the only number my place of employment gives us is average minutes per hour for an entire month (our bare minimum is 12 min/hr). So I am curious to know what sort of average lines per hour you ladies can do? We really cannot afford for me to take a hu ...
Can anyone tell me what their average line count is per day? (just the total not separated between work type). Im not trying to be nosey and I don't know who any of you are personally, I'm just trying to get an idea where I stand compared to everyone else here. I have been at Medquist for many years and seen many changes. Over the years, my line count has gone up and my pay has gone down. I am trying to determine if the reason is mostly me or mostly medquist changes and if th ...
