    HOW DARE YOU
    Just who are you to blame us for Heartland being so money hungry? We were all assured in a conference call in January that our jobs were secure and safe.. We are trying to hang in and people like you make it neccesary. What goes around comes around. I hope you never have to experience what we all have in the past week.. There but for the grace of God.....
    dare I say - MQ

    Dare I say it? Okay, I will - MQ.

    how dare you
    I am not lying. how dare you. too bad you have no faith in anyone. your attitude sucks. I do think it is only fair to share it, so that's what I do. Don't you dare accuse me of lying. You don't know me or one thing about me.
    Just you wait and see if you dare go there !
    You will absolutely hate the job at TH. Try it if you MUST, tho.
    not on a bet. not on a dare. not in this lifetime ever again
    LK and EM are insane-- they will smile to your face, stab you in the back then trample you giggling while they do it. You will be miserable. You'll hate it. They are horrible people with a horrible agenda and no people skills. So if you enjoy being belittled, talked to like an idiot, then thrown out like trash when you have a question or 2... good luck.
    Dare I ask? Any happy Keystrokes Rad MTs? (sm)
    How is the MANTIS platform?  They state pay is by report..what is the amount?  Nice people or ogres?  Any input greatly appreciated.  Tired of wasting time with revolving doors of empty promises. 
    And that's the crux of it? How dare they get angry?
    That just irks the heck of out of me that they have the absolute nerve to get angry when people start questioning how the bills are gonna get paid. That's ridiculous! I'd start looking now; if they've lost that account it could take months and months for them to find another one that size!
    Dare I suggest TransTech since so many seem happy there? nm

    The Q (if you dare), Spheris, Opti-Script, Transtech.


    Regarding Gifts..
    I have always received business gifts and cards, not huge gifts, small seasonal gifts, cards of goodwill, etc. Even a sincere Happy Holidays is nice. I don't know if you meant to address this to me or not. I wasn't complaining about a gift..

    gifts
    I received a throw blanket with the company logo...kinda nice, but I would have preferred a paycheck that did not bounce. I have had three checks bounce and only one has been rectified. Happy Holidays!
    It's not how old we are and it's not about gifts...DER!
    why assume that acknowledgement translates into a gift? That word was never used except by you. We did get a very nice Happy MT Week email, so case closed.

    I wonder if they still give little gifts to the MTs. nm

    Thanks OSi for the MT week gifts
    Received today a nice OSi t-shirt and also notification of a donation made in my name to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, along with a pen and pad from the foundation.  Very nice.
    Any Christmas gifts/bonuses from...
    Any Christmas bonuses or gifts from Futurenet Technology?
    Received my gifts today!
    They really are nice. Thanks so much MDI/Transcend. Nice to be recognized.
    CHRISTMAS GIFTS FROM COMPANIES

    Well, last year I received an email from the owner of the company that indicated that a nice surprise would be arriving in the mail.  Initially, I was impressed; thought that was very nice; I thought that maybe they were sending a gift card or something.  However, It turned out to be the company calendar.  All during the holidays, there were absolutely no personal greetings from any of the supervisors, managers or company owner with HAPPY HOLIDAYS, MERRY CHRISTMAS or HAPPY NEW YEAR, etc.  The only mention of the holidays was an email from my supervisor with a request to give my preference for which holiday I would be working, and then to receive an assignment back from her, indicating whether my preference was approved or not.  My first choice was denied. 


    This year, I'm with a different company.  I have received no calendars or cards or anything solid.  A few of the managers and QA had holiday greetings written in their status sections on the chat board. Despite the fact that I am an employee, nobody forced me to work on any holiday, just asked me whether I would be working or not.  Despite there being no SPECIAL TREAT arriving in the mail, I think I prefer my current company's approach.


    Last year's company could have kept the calendar, as far as I'm concerned.  The company owner could have sent everyone a freebie ecard and I would have been more impressed, had more warm, fuzzy feelings, etc., etc.  She could have done this without spending a single cent.


    Bottom line is that I would much rather receive a kindly greeting from the major players than to receive a calendar or a mug or pen with their advertisements displayed on it. 


    Just my opinion, of course.


    well i have received gifts from employers
    and i too have been in the business for over 30 years, in various capacities, various states and on-line. I have received everything from nice cash bonuses, to fruit baskets and smoked turkeys. But i never 'expect' a gift and rarely see one anymore from employers. Nowadays with all the so-called political correctness, they'd probably be in trouble if they didn't offer similar gifts for every various religion's major holiday....
    I forgot a couple gifts
    A couple years they gave us calendars, which of course had things in the date boxes related to Spheris, but on the top pages they had dictation blopers from the doctors, some of those were pretty funny.
    Don't stress over gifts at Christmas -
    that is NOT what the holiday is about - haven't been able to afford gifts for MANY years now - and when I can again I will be VERY conservative about it.

    We have been brainwashed to think we HAVE to exchange gifts.

    The best year was when I cooked a really good meal for all and placed one small gift at each place setting.
    Anyone get any Christmas gifts from your MTSO this year? If so, what?
    :)
    Aren't gifts a "voluntary" thing...
    This is one of my pet peeves. Let the company decide on a yearly basis if they want to give a gift. A gift is no longer a gift if it is expected and kept track of. But, all in all, Merry Christmas to all.
    Calling other people's gifts "cheesy", are ya? Not nice

    What world do you guys live in where you EXPECT GIFTS? SM
    people are unemployed all over this country. Count your blessings.
    Wow, expecting a gift. CHILDREN expect gifts. Maybe..
    your gift is the fact that you have a job during this current economic crisis. If you get something, fine; if not, are you going to quit? You still have 4 days to wait by your mailbox for your gift, if you should get one.
    JLG used to send birthday gifts (not "bonuses"). It was a nice thought though! Don't know

    Good and Bad - some gifts bought/missed WMX benefits call (sm)

    Of course I procrastinated to attend the call on my day off, then off I went with my daughter shopping. 


    Did I miss anything much other than explanation of health plans?  Is there a web site they referred to you?  Should I call HR and admit I am a moron? 


    TIA


    What's greedy about it? Have always received xmas gifts/bonus as employee
