Posted By: DP on 2005-09-19
In Reply to: Hey DP/No Whining...whoever your alter ego is this evening.... - Shut Up!

and I have quite a life! Bet I make more than you, as well!!!

Lots going on for me!! I'm not complaining about anything in my life!

Losers are the ones on here who whine about how bad their jobs are, or no work, or low pay, or how people treat them, or how companies treat them, or how bad they've got it ... now THOSE are losers. Willing to whine but nothing more!!!!

:) Does that irritate you?! LMAO

LOL I have no idea who "no whining" is but
see, we sound the similar because we have a similar problem -- sick of YOU.

Ya see, all of you whiners --are just the same. Every single one of ya. MQ cheated you. MQ STILL cheats you. MQ won't change. MQ IS changing. MQ took your money. MQ mailed you check. MQ doesn't give you any work. MQ doesn't, MQ does, MQ doesn't, MQ does.

All sounds the same to us. We're sick of you.

What's embarassing is the fact that you THINK you are really MTs! HOW FUNNY!!! Let me tell you something: Real MTs take pride in their work and control of their professional lives. They give all for companies that treat them well and they leave companies that don't. They don't stand for it.

I am not "no whining". I am a completely different person, have no idea who he/she is, don't really care. I'm just tired of hearing you complain over what you can change. It's petty, cheap, childish, self-centered, and downright unprofessional.

I've made over $200 today with MQ. How about you? Have you made any money today? NO? Hmmmm, wonder why!?!?!?!!!!!

so "no whining" - still no SELF CONTROL, huh? The MQ draws you like a

to blood------------


you are the one pathetic.  Those of us who are trying to figure out how to get out of the muck MQ put us in, come here to share things and hopefully come out of this disaster in one piece.


Like others have said - -0 - - - stay away.


Don't click on things MQ.


Don't YOU get it?  We don't need your attacks.  We don't need your smart butt remarks.  If you don't have anything constructive to post to those of us in a bit of a mess, then don't say anything and move on.


Otherwise we are going to think you are MQ management, and we wouldn't want to think they would stoop that low.


You can always say, "No, thank you."
IMO, a good and reputable accountant (along with many others) will tell you when their services are not necessary, especially if you ask. It's just good business practice. I never hurts to ask.
"no boogers"

The doc dictates, "no boogers, fevers or chills"... what would you replace "boogers" with, as I do not seem to be able to find that word in any medical dictionary...I though nasal discharge...


Docs...aaahhhh!!!


to "no message"
Do you do MT and ME? I am just doing MT right now but am considering trying ASR. How does that work? Can you do BOTH or just pick 1??? If you can do both, do the reports come "mixed". Meaning maybe 2 MT jobs then 3 ASR then an MT, ASR, MT, ASR, etc. etc. Or do you get all ASR until it is caught up and then MT or the reverse depending on how pools are set up. I am a little clueless and need some input. Thanks :-)
And all Joy said was "No" on the inside of her post just as did OMT.

Please take her to a "No-Kill" Shelter!
Otherwise, the animals are usually put down after only a week and 1 week really isn't long enough to get the dog adopted. So Please only bring the dog to a "no-kill" shelter! 
I think I would just note "no gifts please".
Nor would I ever suggest only money be given.


"No history of TB exposure"? nm

p.s. to "no, it wasn't aimed...
I re-read my posts "A Matter of Pride" and "Shades of," looking for all the nasty mud-slinging & dagger-throwing I'm being accused of, & I'm simply not seeing it. I still think both posts are completely benign. There was never any mud-slinging intended on my part & for the life of me I can't figure out why Personal Choice got so upset, other than defensiveness/projection. I am still sorry you feel your thread got wrecked, but I'm not sorry I responded in a measured way to Personal Choice. All I was doing was making some calm observations, & I think it's ironic that this kind of response to my thoughts is why I stayed away from the boards for a long time.
I especially like the part about "no longer uses (sm)
international contractors."
OMT said, "No" on the inside of post message.

That is hysterical. When I say flames I mean "no mean posts to me." It's just a saying. nm

Recent postings about "no work and so forth"

Quite a few posters who have been MTs for a number of years (myself included) have come under attack recently for comments posted here  -- what those of us who have done this for years are seeing is "I only want to work certain hours, won't do weekends, don't want to be on call so on and so forth"  Guess what?  I got an email from my supervisor on Monday asking me to cover a certain work type while that person was on vacation  -- I did it!!! -- She also called me today (Sunday and asked me to do 3 STATS  -- I cover STATS on Wednesday)  -- however, I did it because it it my JOB  -- since I started this job in October, I have NEVER run ouf of work  -- if the work type that I do runs out, I do to a differnt work type, it is similar to learning a new account which I have done in the past as well.  All I want to say, is be grateful right now that you have a job and if the "work does not fit YOUR FAMILY SCHEDULE" then learn to adjust  -- think PRIORITIES


About whining
I didn't mean that anyone in particular was "whining."  I know there are cherry pickers, I know there are company favorites, etc. etc.  My point is that if you, me....or anyone isn't making money doing MT and is in a constant state of agitation/unhappiness then it's time to find a better company to work for or even another line of work.  Life is too short.  Doesn't do any good to complain and wonder how someone else manages to make money, only "you" can control your environment.  I know that I have always done more than my share of the difficult dictators and I really don't mind doing it so long as it doesn't 1) interfere with my paycheck and 2) doesn't adversely affect my life.  I've only quit one company because of impossible dictators and that is the one that seems to be known to all; that after I worked for them for 7 years and suddenly all the "good" stuff (there wasn't much of that to begin with on that particular account) evaporated and I was doing nothing but the worst of the worst and I do mean WORST.  I don't know "why" that was happening but I did know when I  had had enough.
Whining
Thanks for the excellent advice, No Whining. Although this is my first visit to this site and I have never posted any complaints about MQ before, I am definitely one of those MQ Whiners you refer to! And this is the best advice I've heard in 5 years! Who do you suggest I apply for a job with?
i am not whining
i am merely trying to take a lighthearted look at other careers we could have chosen. you people suck! you are just mean to be mean. i think u are fooling yourselves that you are so secure in your jobs. i thought that too, i thought i was indispensable, but being an IC, i am disposable. i am just an accounts payable bill; they found a cheaper way to do and what do they do, they get rid the luxury item.
Both? I thought Spheris had a "no compete" rule.

At least that is what I was told.  Or maybe this is just a new thing?


I fail to understand what the "competition" would be.


I think each case is unique. I had a "no changer" and he changed (sm)
We went for counseling and boy did things change!!!! We now listen to each other. We talk more than we ever have. We do things as a couple, for each other. We learned to openly appreciate each other for little things. We learned to love each other in ways that we never did before.

Believe me, my DH came from living at home with momma into our marriage and he expected me to take the place of his mom. That worked for a little while until I grew tired of being his maid and his bedroom companion.
What's wrong with "no gifts please" and then if some DO give money or

Help with "no operating system found" message sm
Laptop with Windows XP shows "no operating system found" - desktop working. Did this before and comes back with turning on and off, went into "setup" and shows I have so many MB stored on hard drive but cannot get system to boot, misplaced XP CD. This time I cannot get it to come back and depend on laptop at end of day to research, e-mail, etc., as desktop for too many hours is too painful. Any way to get the Windows XP to start up so I can do a system restore to an earlier time? Perhaps an update did this. It is "dead" but everything is still on there, lots of "good stuff" - a Dell so no one else will touch it and I can't get online with them as my other computer is not a Dell.

message re. "no operating system found"
No warranty- a client co. added some software to the XP which was very expensive, i.e., voice, lots of extras I used for over 2 years, "loaded" and it did this to me before but was able to get it back by unplugging, restarting several times.No one else will touch a "Dell" and that co. is closed.  After several "hundred" times I can only do an "F2" and it shows me there is a hard drive with several MB of stuff on there but won't load it, tried everything in the system - hate to lose all this "good" stuff. Is there any way I can transfer my XP from my desktop or run the laptop from my desktop somehow. I think if I could get a startup menu and choose a time to restore it to, like last month or something, I could use it and stop any further "updates" which really mess up things. Gosh, I loved my laptop as it is not "painful" to use and I do have such back pain at end of day, but then I am preaching to the choir about back pain and this job, aren't I? Hate to give up on it when I know there are some good programs on there. Sorry for the rant, I have let this "take over my life" trying to get it to work again. ***$#!**  Thank you!
No, and I wasn't whining either.

I just made an observation that you hadn't responded yet.  And I was working myself, so I was trying to be brief.  Like I told Endiqua, it's not that I, myself, don't believe you or anyone else who is earning really good $$$ at MT.  I don't really care if other MTs believe you or not.  That's their problem.  I do believe it can be done, but I want to know how I can do it, too.  Honestly, I appreciate the advice and sharing of experiences.  I'm not trying to come across as snotty or trollish.


My last (??maybe?) question for you is how long you have been on your particular accounts, and are they low, mid or high level accounts?  I worked for both MQ and S, but I left for greener pastures because they kept bouncing me from difficult ESL account to another within a week of the last one.


I made more in the past year doing MT than every other year combined since I started several years ago.  I'm not working a part-time job as backup any more either.  I've also tripled my expander stats in the past month.  I could be satisfied with that, but I believe the potential is there to do so much more.


MORE WHINING FROM MEEEE!!!

  So NOW what do I do??? He wants to see them (it's been two months!!)  I've told him I can't AFFORD to meet him and he only offers to "give me money" (that ole dangling carrot) if I meet him


I truly WANT the kids to have a relationship w/their dad, but I honestly can't afford the drive (I live in OK; he lives in TX - our divorce says we meet, of course)  Have been told by my atty that child support and child visitation are TWO SEPERATE ISSUES.....glad he has money to meet!!


More venting....thanx everyone for your feedback - wish there were not so many DBD's and DBM's out there, but it's NICE not to be alone!! 


who's whining here besides you. i'm calling

No whining, but ANGRY
With a MQ blog you could communicate and discuss to your hearts content, while you change nothing and your children starve.  And if MQ started the hole you are in, by still being there you are handing them the shovel to make that hole deeper.  Of course it is hard switching jobs and learning new accts but how does staying at MQ with NO jobs make that any easier?  If you have children and bills, you darn well better be doing something other than just whining about what a bad company MQ is.  You can start that process now or you can do nothing but whine and still have to start that process sometime in the future, all the while you bills are adding up and you kids are getting thinner.  And another thing, why do you have to buy anything for a new program or new job?  I have never had to buy anything for any company I have worked for.  It is hard to have alot of sympathy for a person who is constantly with the "poor me" but who does nothing to pull themselves out of the mire.  And if you think I am whining, you are reading my posts all wrong.  I am not whining, I am angry that you are letting yourselves be taken advantage of.  It makes all MTs look bad,  like we cannot take a stand for ourselves but feel ourselves to be at the mercy of any company that wants to take advantage of a hard-working MT.
What are you doing here? You're whining.
Use that energy to find another job and stop subjecting the rest of us to your pity party.

Enough already!
No - you started it with your whining about
Gasp!
Tired of the whining and here is why.
If you check out the posts, you will see what we are talking about.  MQ MTs whine about the horrible company they work for but don't leave.  I am angry that the "sit back and take it" attutude they have makes all hard working MTs look bad.  I for one know I am worth more than having to put up with being used like slave labor.  Even if it means working two jobs, it is better than just sitting back and whining but doing nothing about your plight.  And with that being said, no one is saying they should not be able to beat the dead dog amoungst themselve, they just need to take it to a blog, so we don't have to be witness to it.  And btw, i DO work two MT jobs.
Correction! That should be No Whining
.
Yeah, that's why you're the one whining
online about a grocery store clerk a full week later.  It must have been pretty bad to affect your self esteem so much that you're still dwelling on it.  Have you ever actually worked in customer service before?
Hey DP/No Whining...whoever your alter ego is this evening....

.....I guess you really don't have a life...on here all day and now all night...what a


L-O-S-E-R!


My son, who is 14, most definitely YES! He is constantly whining to me about being bored, but...
my daughter is starting Kindergarten this year and she is my baby and my last and I am going to be a blubbering fool probably the entire first week of school!
quit freaking whining and do your job
xx
And you are doing nothing more than whining. Re-read the post.
Not sticking up for ANYONE, just stating a fact. Get over yourself.
I guess we have to wear ID bracelets "no docs not on approval list" nm

I wish she were on my QA team. She sounds wonderful!
Talk is fine but enough with the repeated whining. sm
I think you are right.  You should not leave MQ until you have another job and absolutely, you should not settle for just anything.  While it is true MQ has put you were you are today, there is nothing that says you have to stay down.  Take your future in your own capable hands and run with it.  And I don't agree that where MQ goes, there goes the rest of us.  I would like to think MQ will teach us all a lesson as to what NOT to put up with.  And if we all make a stand against companies like MQ, I would hope all of our futures can be brighter.  I think that also means not sitting quietly by while our jobs are offshored.  Refuse to deal with offshore call centers and service centers.  It is a small step but we have to start somewhere.  Management of these companies has no job except for us, for that matter, state employees on up to the top, have no jobs without us.  There is no reason for any of us to take bad treatment without fighting back.  I think the future CAN be changed, if we all stick together and make our voices be heard. But whining incessantly just makes people turn a deaf ear to your complaints after a while.  A blog would give all MQers a place to support and sympathize with each other.
That is because No whining/Barney is taking her meds.

That is because No whining/Barney is taking her meds.

Your tone sounds 100% whining and bitter.
That's why I call your posts whining and bitter! The other poster stated her case in a mature way, using stats as her back up. No whining, no bitterness. I have not formed an opinion on the AAMT either way to date, but am leaning more pro-AAMT by just the style of postings - those supporting it come off as calm, professional, and mature, while those not supporting it sound emotional, bitter, and whining. Just my opine and reaction to the posts!! Debate much? Its a great skill, and long lost in America...
Quit before I got married. Fiance told me "no way would I marry a smoker," and I was smitten.
Marlboro Reds. I smoked all throughout high school and college before that. Was highly addicted. Had to go for a smoke break between classes.

It's been 10+ years since quitting. Cold turkey. Don't want it, don't want to smell it, won't eat at a restaurant that allows smoking. Fortunately (sorry smokers) in GA, all restaurants are smoke-free now. I like it that way. Can enjoy food better.

BUT, I have a completely different problem that is probably killing me - I'm addicted to sugar and carbs. Highly. Wake up craving it. 40+ pounds overweight. Hate every minute of it. No matter how hard I try, I absolutely cannot stop eating the "white, starchy" stuff. So, the cigarettes may not kill me now, but food might. Sad.
Good one. An anonymous poster blows another anonymous poster's head off. Great win for MQ?

I guess that is a small pleasure for those of you who have lowered your expectations for the company you work for. 


 


Bet you're married to a fat bald guy too. 


Chill in that you're all complaining and whining here, which is getting you NO where fast! Plus i
just soooooo tiresome to hear it 24/7. Again, its been going on forever. Period. And I assume you are referring to MQ, and then go on to imply how the service who treats their MTs right will have the most MTs, or whatever. Well, MQ has about 10K at any given moment!  Unethical to route work as you see fit?  Never!  That's the ropes! Some MTs just take everything soooooo personally.  Its not good for their mental health, literally.  Hey, I get a run of 10 reports from a great dictator whom I haven't heard in, say, 6 months, I just type them and move on! Perhaps I pause a microsecond to think, Hmmmm...he hasn't been around much, but glad he's here now!  To hear these whining complaining MTs, they just sit there and start plotting how this doctor got to their pool, where he's been in the interim, and its ALWAYS Indian MTs as the scapegoat, or the cherry pickers, or the VR got all the "good stuff".  They never just accept that its just THE WAY IT IS.  The roll of the dice - the MTs on line before them or with them - why does it always have to be something other than just fate?  Its so reflective of an unhappy persona, and its so self defeating.  Type it and be happy, or get another job! 
Same goes for the ridiculous whining from marrieds and cohabitators...hahaha
It is just as "oh please" to hear marrieds and those with live-ins complain about all they have to "put up with". Same logic applies there -- they asked for their situation as well.

I personally think that parents deserve a little extra appreciation, period.

I have a softer opinion toward single parents as I have been one and I can honestly say that of all the married women I know, I have never seen one marriage that I would give up my lifestyle now for theirs.

So, I suppose we should ALL stop complaining about our own personal lives! We each and every made the decisions that got us here and we make the choice to stay!!

So, in trying to be fair, I'll not do any more extra cheerleading for single parents as long as I don't have to hear the same whine song from marrieds/cohabitators!
QUESTION: Why are you still there? Quit whining and go to a different company. If you stay there,
pp
Now who is whining, "oh poor baby you have to scroll"

Whine to somebody else.  MQ MTs who have been "taken" by this


company have no other option but to try to discussion and communicate


on such a web site.  Nobody at MQ will be honest.  And if you have to scroll


well so be it, you are in a far better situation than us MTs who are trying to


figure out how to get out of the hole MQ has put a lot of us in financially.  Most


people by the way don't have the ability to just up and switch jobs.  We have


bills, children, and it takes time to learn new accounts, new programs, buy new


things for new programs.  remember? or are you so independently wealthy that


these things don't affect you?


You had our compassion but the constant whining has turned that to antipathy. nm
:)
Then maybe you will start talking about me and quit repeating the whining about MQ. nm
:)
I never claimed to be great or perfect, I am just sick of the whining.
All we hear is "we need to discuss, we need to talk, we need to figure out what to do."  I have offered some suggestions of what you might try to pull yourselves out of the mire, since you can't seem to think of any suggestions yourselves.  The collective whining is getting you nowhere.  How many times do you think you need to whine "poor me" before the situation changes itself?  I hate to tell you, but no amount of whining is going to change your plight, only action on your part will do that.  Anyway, bottom line is, whine all you want together, just take it to a blog so we don't have to be subjected to it.
