Skipping, sm

In Reply to: skipping jobs - sm - TXmt

I worked on a C-phone for a long time, and now I work straight internet.  Cherry picking goes on all the time.  My company has it reduced, FINALLY, where you can not see available jobs and cherry pick; however it is still done.  The MTs on the account know the difficult dictators and they will reject the job, costing someone else lines and $$$$.  If it do 3 or 4 very difficult jobs in a row that in my best opinion have been rejected by other MTs, I simply sign off  for an hour or two.  I don't do that often, but when I get jobs 2 hours old, that I know have been kicked around, I will to 3  or 4, but 5 or six starts hitting my pocketbook.  I simply take a break and sign off and come back in an hour or so.

help..how do you set it up for skipping? sm
I looked through the book and can find nothing that tells me how to skip jobs so that i can tell them how to do this. I tried # and number and plain numbers and nothing. If the actual Straight Talk needs to be set up this way, do you know where in the book this could be?

thank you for any help
Skipping School
My 17 yo stepson missed nearly every day this semester. Actually, he just turned 18 and has decided to go live with a friend. However, he wasn't a partier...stayed at home all the time...quiet. But he got on the school bus in the morning and then took off to McDonald's across the street, or took the city bus to the Mall and hid out all day. I don't know if he'll even graduate now. Anyway, point is, I am a very diligent parent, but sometimes there is nothing you can do. I'm not saying your neighbor is a good or bad parent, but I've done everything possible, and received very little help from the school system, law enforcement, etc. Once they are 17-18, there's not much you can do. Sorry for your noise problems. If it is really late, and very noisy, maybe you could get Codes Enforcement to do something about it.

I can't stand "cherry-pickers" they should not be allowed to continue in this field, as they make it difficult for everyone. Having used a C-phone for several different jobs - we were told how to skip jobs ( at times it was necessary - not just skipping jobs that we didn't want to do) although some people did and then the feature would be blocked for a while, usually until that person quit and then it would be returned to us. One job was a #8 - return to pool another was a #7 - return to pool. I think that the C-phone can be customized to whatever someone wants - however I have always found the instructions for programming the C-phone to be elusive or nonexistent - that is one of the great mysteries of this world.

No, it is just a plug and play
Skipping reports on C-phone
Although you are not supposed to, you should be able to skip over reports that are not specifically assigned to you. If you can't skip over them, they have likely been assigned to you by the administrator, in most cases the wicked senior transcriptionist. This is what I call reverse cherry-picking or programmed cherry-picking. It makes their day a lot easier at your expense.
keyboard skipping keys
Does anyone else have problems with some of the keys on the keyboard skips intermittently, not all the time, just sometimes?  My keyboard is brand new.  Not the most expensive, but it is new.  What can I do?  Please help.

I will be out of town for a few days and there will be two people covering the account and one has to do one group, the other another group.  Since the docs all dictate from same source for diferent accounts, this has not been a problem till now.

JMO, but you are better off just applying directly to a company and skipping them altogether...

they basically try to fit your experience with a company and you can do that yourself...

If you work from a pool, it's when others are leaving you the crappy reports by skipping over the
