In it to lesson annoying contact with the management species.
;p
Should it be "life cycle management" or "lifecycle management"?
Having a debate at work.
Thanks because that was really annoying ! nm


Oh yes. It is very annoying to say the least. sm
I take a lot of breaks during the day and go outside to get fresh air. I actually think the anxiety is what is causing the heart palpitations. I have a prescription for Xanax, which I cannot take and work, but I do use it at night before bed on a very infrequent basis.
yes really annoying
equipment, moaning patients, laughing and talking nurses, barking dogs, and children crying or trying to get mom or dad's attention (stop that, I'm dictating!) funniest one was an announcement over the loudspeaker about a pizza delivery to the nurse's station.
it's really annoying
happens quite a bit.   I do get the credit though I put in a note that says dictator did not complete report but I still get paid for what I typed.
that would be annoying....
guess there is job security after all.
very annoying
I have an RN who dictates I have a problem with this chart.  She also gives lab values and then says No, I don't like those lab values, just delete them. . It's very annoying and also, what does it mean? How can you not like the lab values. . . Just a little irritated this morning. . sorry to vent. .
annoying
It is just annoying to get your speed up on an account and get used to the dictator and then they go and quit giving you that work for a little while and then they want you to do it again. So wishy-washy. I don't get it. It seems like it would be easier on the company to put you somewhere and leave you.
annoying
Something that bugs me to no end is when dictators use the word "nor" constantly and incorrectly.  grrrrrr..... 
Annoying!
I have one female provider who sounds like she is sucking on a lozenge the whole time. Worse than that, one doc clicks his pen over and over while I wait for him to say something (which is usually impossible to understand anyway).
ugh. baldwins are annoying now.
fat and bloated.
annoying dictator
Here's a good one; 7-1/2 minute dictation, first minute put on hold, then dictator dictates for two minutes, then says, Never Mind, Lets start this ALL OVER.  And they wonder why we are tense
Annoying dictator
If you are being paid by the line, I sure would dispute this! They have no idea, do they?
Do you ever get that annoying *bubble*

in your ear?  I have one in my left ear today and I can't get it to go away.  You know, when you talk and you can hear yourself really LOUD!  I have tried popping my ears....I tried irrigation....I thought I may have had water in it from my shower this morning, but nope.  It's driving me nuts and has made it very difficult to hear on that side today.  Does anyone have any tips on getting it to go away?


 


Annoying crickets sm
You know, I love summer with the sounds of birds and all that, but this cricket outside my window is driving me absolutely batty.  GRRR. 
ok now I see it - extremely annoying. NM

Yes!! About 10 days for me. Very annoying.

annoying doctor
I have to say you gave me my first good laugh today. I have had doctors fall asleep and say, well, you know my routine, but just let me know if you cannot figure it out.
Oh golly, that must be frustrating and annoying.
maybe you can make a game for yourself of second-guessing the QA folks. It sounds like they are the kind of ill-informed people who would rather cling to their ignorance like grim death than open their minds and learn something useful. If you look at figuring out their foibles as a game, maybe it won't rankle so much.
So annoying to get a good debate going, and then it's gone.

How annoying. What is it with the flaky factor?

Not transcription related but I am trying to get volunteers to help with a big community theater project and I don't know how many times I get the "oh yeah I will definitely be there blah blah" and I end up with mostly no-shows!!! I mean I know it's volunteer but why lie? If they don't want to, just $%#^ SAY SO..  Can't imagine people doing that to a real job, what idiots. 


Put annoying redundants in your expander...sm
and at the end of your pay period, count them and either aggravate yourself or LYAO all the way to the bank!
extremely annoying LOL I just did one today where the doc kept using the first name or the middle
None of which was spelled.  Wish they would make up their minds sometimes.  It would be funny (I was getting a little giggle out of it at the time I typed it) if it weren't so frustrasting at the same time.  Have a good one! :)
RE: I think they should send Paula home - she is so annoying........

Really strange, sorry it's annoying, we're cking to see what's up.

What is your most annoying redundant speech pattern? sm
You how doctors always seem to have a pet word? They will use it until you are ready to smack them.

Subsequently. Said by an ESL at least once in every sentence and pronounced sub see QUEENT ly. He is also says Prolene mess potch and plook for mesh patch and plug.

Next...next this, next that, next, now I...

At this moment. Did you know you can start every sentence in a 2-page report with at this moment?

then
then
then

and THEN I screamed and was heard in the halls of every hospital in America.
New nominee for most annoying doctor today s/m
This guy is walking on the treadmill while he's dictating, so not only is he so scatter brained he doesn't know what he's talking about, I get to enjoy the heavy breathing.
these boards allow you to "backhand" annoying people so you don't take it out on your famil
and don't be arguing with me today. you know i'm right.
I have one who yawns a lot. Kind of annoying but I guess he's just tired! (nm)
nm
Yeah, really! What an annoying, obnoxious, bottom-feeder she is!
Star sucks, bubbye loser!

I hate shopping. I do mine on-line and avoid the annoying crowds.

Are you in MQ management?
Are you with MQ management? Although it doesn't matter, because I'm telling the truth. I see it every day.
MQ management
No - I am a new rehire. 
MQ management
I'm sorry, but I don't feel comfortable about giving my e-mail address, because I'm not certain about your position. I had a great job until MQ came into our hospital and managed to reduce my pay tremendously. I am one of the very few users who has access to DocQmanage and this process that they use to count lines just makes me sick.
MQ management - NOT
Whatever - I feel bad that you have lost money. I also have been "screwed" by plenty of companies myself. I was just trying to figure out if you could provide documented proof of "how they are robbing the MT". By the way, if you still work at a hospital, don't you still get benefits, i.e., health insurance, holiday pay or is all that based on lines produced like it is outside of a hospital? Have a great day.
MQ management
I must say - there is so much paranoia amongst some of you. Yeah - I've been hacked by the big companies also. Why not keep your mouth shut if you don't want to provide documented evidence.
MQ management - NOT
Did they bother to tell you that they also outsource MT transcription to other countries at MQ? I'm interested if they are trying to sell DQS and MQ without divulging that they outsource to India.
Are you new or management?
This WAS a GREAT company. IT is changing, we are not trying to change it. IT is changing OUR lives. I don't abandon ship without trying to help others first. UNBELIEVABLE CHANGES in less than two months where I am. I will be out of it very soon and if you want, you can go down with the ship with that attitude but I hope you and the others like you realize what you sound like and don't.


Whatever U say, Management! - nm

Management
I have never had anyone be rude to me the entire time I have been there. The IT guy can be a bit gruff, but I almost never talk to him. Of course, I do my required lines plus, get excellent QA scores, and don't bother anyone. Maybe that is why they are so nice to me!
Whatever you say, Management. What are
Just curious.
Sorry Charlie, not management
just an old MT with 30 years experience. and No I don't smoke thanks anyway.
Does anyone know anything about pain management M.D.'s?
For someone with chronic pain, is prescribing pain pills a last resort or is this the norm? 
You sound like MQ management...
I just now read your ridiculous post (I'm not on boards very often, just check occasionally to see what is going on or blow off steam).

MQ adjusted my compensation without telling me. Had they told me I would be making less per line, I would have sought employment elsewhere. I was hired with the verbal and written agreement that I would be paid on the basis of a 65-character line, i.e. space bar, commas, bolding, underline, headers, footers, cc lines, headings, etc. etc. Through manipulation of their counting software, and various platforms, (Im'on my fifth platform)they have systematically underpaid us for our work. In fact, they just admitted that recently and I have a check and letter from them stating those facts. The amount I received is not near the actual amount that they underpaid me. I have no idea how they came up with this bogus figure. Yes, our business is an exchange for skills and service, but they must uphold their end of the agreement which was to base our compensation on a 65 character line. If that changed, nobody told us. In fact they repeatedly told me that nothing had changed and we were still getting paid the same way. They could not account for the decline in my production except to say that I just wasn't producing the same amount as I was before. Duh!

There is no heartache here, just anger. I'm angry that I've been ripped off by a bunch of greedy bums who have become quite wealthy off our blood, sweat and tears. Yes blood, I recently had to have surgery which was job-related, and am still recovering. So, why do you even care if you don't work for MQ and this doesn't even concern you. Do you just enjoy beating up on posters, does it make you feel better than everyone?


The recruiter said it was management, not MT.
It is my guess it paid well, but who knows.
A TL is for workload management ONLY SM

If you are going to her to ask questions about software, blanks, format, etc., you are going to the wrong person.  Software issues for the help desk and blanks, format issues for QA.


Team leaders SHOULD just be routing work, seeing that there is adequate staff to do the work, etc.


You obviously are Spheris management
It always amazes me, the BS from Spheris, astounding!
No, she's from OSI management, but that might as well be another galaxy
are backpedaling on here a thousand miles per hour trying to find employees that actually live in this country.

Too late. You treat people like that, this is what you get.
