you obviously don't chat much

In Reply to: This post makes 3 "SD" I have seen, what is that? - MT from a different company

sd is said. Standard shorthand on chatboards. Why would something so miniscule and insignificant bother you? like I s-a-i-d, you have some real issues that need working on. I am not the one capping and underlining and bolding it, the stupid site is.

Chat, anyone?!

Would like to chat with anyone
who has worked (or does work) for Opti-Script out of State College, PA.  I am considering getting another PT job.  Any information would be helpful.  Feel free to email me or respond here.  Thanks!

Does anyone ever use the chat room? 
newbie chat
I don't remember how to do it anymore, but know there is a way we could set up our own group chat for the account on yahoo or here. Anyone interested? E-mail and I will see if I can set it up.

Non, cher, embrasser mes grauau DE mais.

gros chat

Back around the turn of the century, my school offered had Spanish and Latin.  I did four years of Latin.  Besides, I think French makes you sound like you have a permanent sinus condition. 


There is a restaurant near my home, run by a French family, and it is tres drole to be greeted with a bon jour and thanked with a merci.  On the other hand, watching customers try to play along with their high school French is also quite amusing because try as they might, they just cannot get the staff to understand what they say.  Que?  Que?  Garrison Keillor's skit about 'Cafe Berf ' is not too far off the mark.


Also, any request for something not standard issue is rudely dismissed.  I was once served a chocolate mousse in a tall, tapering tulip glass so that the bottom 1/3 was inaccessible with the soup spoon I had been given.  Might I have a dessert spoon?  Non!  An iced tea spoon, perhaps?  NON!  (he says, holding up the teaspoon)  Zees ees ze spoon!  So I calmly picked up the proper utensil (my mousse knife) and scraped the dessert out of the glass under his horrified gaze. 


Gotta love 'em!


Get real, the MTs IM each other all the time and chat sm
I talk with other MTs daily on IM and have never been told not to.  You can talk to them outside of work if you get their personal email, have never been told not to do that either.  They only limit you if you allow it.  There is freedom of speech in the U.S.  Sharing line rates is just stupid, it's your income and no one elses business, they aren't afraid of that.  If anything they don't want people complaining about them, which is understandable - if you worked in- house and they heard you complaining all the time at a hospital, they'd send you to the door or have a serious talk.  Why should an outsourcing company be any different.  We are employees using their equipment plain and simple.  As for them being like a Big Brother, get real, it's just a scare tactic for you to think they are watching your every move, they don't have time for that, they don't have that many people to do that and way more important stuff to do because we share them with the clients and they have needs too.  You are just way to paranoid.
Heres the chat link....

Theres the link, duno why it didn't show up on the other page.


If you are running out of work, you need to chat w/your mgr. sm
No one should run out of work consistently; you should be trained on 1-2 backup accounts so that doesn't happen. On rare occasions, like holiday periods, I do run out during my shift and I do try to make up outside my 12-hr flex, or on another day off. It happens so seldom that I usually take PTO or unpaid time instead.

If you consistently do not work 35-40 hours, then yes you lose full-time benefits.
Amanda, you can use the live-chat (sm)
and they will help you trouble shoot.  If you go to the screen for billing, you will see information there on how to live chat for technical issues.  Hope this helps.
Thanks, Rennie, for answers in the chat room! NM

I don't get the constant chat about "overhired at Webmedx" - sm
My accounts are constantly running overtime. My STM is asking for OT on at least 3 accounts today and has been for the past month. If you are running out of work, ASK SOMEONE for more!
How does a chat board assist an MTSO with nonpayment issues?
Just asking, not finding the correlation between the two, and clarification would be appreciated for now and the future.
