Okay, enough with the bickering...

48K, 40 hours per week, acute care, incentive after 1200 lines


To everyone bickering!
All I can say is don't we have better things to do than bicker back and forth?  Just because one person isn't offended by not getting anything doesn't mean that someone else won't be.  We all have different things that offend us.  If the original poster felt like she was slapped in the face with the $5 gift card, fine!  That is how it made her feel.  Her feelings don't make it right or wrong and not everyone has to agree with her feelings.  Get a life and quit bickering about someone's feelings.
re: tired of bickering kids

Lordie you remind my of the not so good ol days...kids...


Selective hearing or NOT hearing you...well, I did learn that paybacks are heck does work.  When they ask you a question or demanding your attention, just ignore them, till they get really frustrated  "MOM, are you dea" was a good one...then i politely tell them...hmmmmmmmmm see how it feels?!


Bickering/arguing/not my turn...mine got so bad that I got a big egg timer, every time they started their crap, I turned the timer on until they stopped, showed them how much time they had wasted with this not my turn crap., kept a running tally for each day.THEN, when they wanted to go to a movie/mall or anywhere it took mom's wheels to get...we just put the timer on and made sure we did NOT leave until the same amount of time they had wasted all week....boy did that crap shorten in no time.this worked wonders, but..I feel for you, wish I could say it gets better but so far...NOT..lol


These are not petty! These are major sm
things that any experienced MT should know. You need to take the correction as it was intended...........not to be petty but to fix things that you have been doing wrong for years! The docs don't know formatting and unfortunately most of the hospitals don't either. Be glad you FINALLY have some correction! Why you would waste your time checking everyone elses transcription is beyond me.

This kind of transcription is why I don't get too excited when I have an "experienced" MT call me to test for a job. I have tested MANY MTs with experience even more than yours and gotten the same thing! Sometimes people have been working for the same place for years and never been corrected.

This kind of stuff is why (in my opinion) that all MTs should have at least 2-5 years experience in an acute care facility before going out on their own! This "new wave" of going to MT school and then opening your "own business" is bringing this profession way down! It needs to stop.
Isn't Richard Petty from there? nm

bickering sons, love your idea

Isn't it just amazing that teens will go to all lengths to help a friend, but you ask for help w/chores and it's like you pulled out their wisdom teeth with tweezers!  Needed help cleaning carpets...they were probably growing the cure to cancer after all the kids tromping in my house...told them ALL/friends and kids that they WERE GOING to do most of the work with the cleaner..."Oh cool...OMG, you could literally see black and white from all the areas they missed..."why do WE have to do it"...Well,  I could probably pick up each of yours DNA all over and for sure, MY friends do not track crap all over.


Another issue is how most adults in our community/teachers, neighbors etc, tell me just what great kids/nice polite/helpful I have and i find myself RE-introducing myself and connecting to my kids...yep, that's who they're talking about..and I guess they wipe off that nice attitude when they hit the front door....guess I should'nt complain on that one.  Better than getting nasty complaints about them


I asked a question, she answered it. How exactly is that petty. Get a life.

Have you ever heard of Richard Petty? He lives in Level
Cross, which is a hop, skip, and a jump from GSO. 
White Stripes, Black-Eyed Peas, Tom Petty, Chrissy Hynde

How is this political? This is a state of living, not bickering political points. Truth hurts...NM

cherrypicking co-worker issue (meant to post it on this board instead of MQ board) sm...

I need opinions please...I work on a very small account with just a handful of ladies.  Because of the nature of the software (trying not to get too specific here) we can see who is working online and what reports they are working on in real-time...



We have one cherrypicker on the account.  Instead of using FIFO method, she retrieves the reports by author ID - usually picking the better dictators of course.  She knows I busted her and she did admit to it in on our work e-mail (not too bright) which I am saving just in case she gets out of hand - so far I'm still able to make money since really most of the dictators aren't bad. 



But every night it's starting to wear on me since she's screwing up turnaround time.  I don't really want to cause a big uproar being that it is such a small account and I need to work with her almost every night usually one on one.



What would you all do?  I want to handle this as delicate and professional as possible because we can't really afford to lose anyone on this account.  In other words, I refuse to stoop to her level by cherrypicking right back.


My boss has asked me several times why so-and-so does so much more than I do...I just bite my lip at that point but one of these days I think I might explode and just open up a can of worms....


Definitely one of the other board's people who refer to those on this board as "holy rollers,&
Now go ahead and post your reply - I know you're dyin' to!

Job Board ???
What happened to the Job Board that was at the top of the Job Seeker's Board?  I have not been able to find it for several days.  HELP!
It has been said MQ has own board here,
nm
new to the board

Just wanted some insight I guess on what the whole field is about, i.e. hospitals versus working at home, etc.  I know that sounds broad, but there is so much info on here, it's hard to grasp it all. 


 


 


On this board is the first I have ever
heard of this ASR. So, everybody will be doing this?
You will never believe it according to this board
but I am out of Amherst. Obviously, if you run out of work, it is not the MTs fault, but if the work is there and you can't be productive, I think there is a problem with the MT. I do run out of work as well, but I have never been on this board complaining about it. I find different times to work when the work is there to get my lines in. It is as simple as that.
See job board
There was a job for veterinary ophthalmology listed on the job board late last week, but I think they required a fair amount of experience...
Welcome to the board! nm

Sorry if on this board you can't say
you've missed people. I will be back on later and I am sure, Happy MQer, one of you will too. I look forward to it! xx oo
Please.. what board are we on?
take it to your cronies.
I have only been on this board
a short time myself when things started to go bad. I feel it is an outlet for me because as I and others have stated MQ does not care and we want to speak to each other in some form.

I am not afraid of taking any leap. I am trying to stay with a company that I have been loyal to because I have been with them so long. I do not enjoy jumping from job to job. I do not like being treated this way and it only happened within the last couple of months.

There are no proper channels at MQ. I have tried, believe me.

I do have control over my life that is for sure and I know when I am being treated unfairly and now is that time. I will be doing something about it; but I need to find that other job. I just can't quit, cannot afford to, and who knows how long it will be before I can get started again all over.

I have 20 years experience and have never been treated like this so it is a bit overwhelming and unbelievable that it is happening. I expected to be with MQ until I retired. No such luck now.

I will be leaving this board soon but when people, not saying you, are nasty and do not understand what is going on it is hard to not respond to them.
Has anyone seen the job board

And if so,why isn't everyone going with them? Sure sounds good.


There's an ad at the top of the job board saying this exactly
But don't know anything about the company.
