Returning......

I would just send a reply to the e-mail received, so when the person opens it, they will see their e-mail and that you were invited back. That way, if it was sent mass or not, they still sent the invite toyou, so this would be a help, I think, in getting their attention. I'm sure you're just too cautious and keeping yourself from getting the job.

Go for it!!!!

Returning computer

There is nothing in their handbook about paying $125 to return their computer.  I'm not sure where that came from.   


 


Returning Transcend's PC
Please contact Jeff McKee at jeff.mckee@trcr.com and he will send you labels for return of our equipment.  Thank you.
I'd like to know, too! Was thinking of returning..
IF they would have me!  I want to work weekends/nights, Fri through Sunday.
you should consider returning PT flex....
if you get cesspool, sign off. If you get your accounts stay on. It is not too hard to get 2000 lines per week. You could probably manage it on the weekend when work volume is higher.

My work pools have improved over the last month or so. I get my primary, secondary, and then accounts from my PS's BOB. Usually I sign off when my primary and secondary are finished.
Returning to work after disability?

About 2-1/2 years ago I had to take employer-paid disability for an illness that was affecting my attendance at the hospital where I had been employed for several years as an MT.  I loved my job, but had no choice at the time and have spent the last two years trying to do my best to return to health and return to work at the same hospital.  During those two years, the hospital had a shortage of qualified MTs and was aggressively hiring; when I checked lately, however, there are no openings.  I called the department a month ago inquiring about the possibility of returning to work and the department head never returned my call.  Although I had exemplary reviews and years of extensive MT experience at this hospital, I know that my attendance the last year or so left a bad impression on my department head.  Also, during the time I was quite ill and still working, my production temporarily suffered, worsening the situation (yet my last review was still exemplary, noting only attendance issues and need to pull up production, otherwise just outstanding). I do believe she got the message the day I called, but chose not to return the call.  I made the call during a time they were actively recruiting and having some difficulty in finding qualified MTs.  Now I see no such ads anywhere.


There are other non-MT positions at the hospital, but I'm really not qualified for most of them and my pay as an MT was outstanding and I absolutely adored my job until I became too ill to work.  I'm afraid I ruined my reputation in my department when I became ill and she perhaps has decided not to re-hire me.  Although I could speak with people above her, she ultimately has the final say in determining whether she would take me back into the department.


If my MT department head is unwilling to hire me, what do you think my chances are applying at national companies with a 2-1/2 year lapse in working and transcribing?  I'm sure my doctors will gladly back me up that my attendance issues were solely due to my illness and I have copies of my superior reviews, even my last review the month before I left to take disability. 


Although I believe I haven't lost my MT skill, I have been out of the loop in terms of new drugs, etc. for over two years.  Yet, I do have many years transcribing for a prominent multi-specialty hospital.  What would YOU DO if you were me?  Would you more aggresively pursue the position with my current employer or try to move on?  I don't want to move on, but may have no choice.  Thanks for the advice!
