You need to lighten up. This is a public forum. Take the good, leave the bad.

MQ chose the public forum for us to ask questions.

Do you have any better idea?


They offered a job.  They are not producing the goods.  They don't return phone calls and they don't have any policy manuals for employees or contractors.


There is no other way to ask the question.  They brought us to this place through their misrepresentation of facts.  The fact is they offered work.  So why shouldn't they be looked at for unethical work practices?  I was looking for a job, they offered one.  It's not my responsibility now to go look for another job.  They need to reply as to why there is no work.


Questions like this should be taken up with your supervisor instead of a public forum. sm
I'm sure your supervisor could answer any questions you have. 
Might be public forum but you don't need to insult people
in "just kidding" or not. Now drop the subject. I accepted your apology, now move on. I will not argue the point with you. It is fruitless.
You're an idiot. You asked for help on a public forum
then get angry over the responses? OMG, do you even have a life? LOL

Also, this is a public forum not an actual report I am sending to a client...
so give me a break...shows nothing about how qualified I am...You wouldn't know what qualified is since you are not qualified yourself...
I'm selling my books in the Equipment forum because I am going to leave MT (SM)

as soon as I can.  I am doing something in the beauty field, and it cost me $29 to start up.  I got a $500 check in January, and I just started in December, so I am not to that point yet.  I loved MT, but I am sick of working my butt off for $14-$20 an hour. If anyone wants to know more, just email me.  But in the time of companies offshoring and offering 7 cents a line and voice recognition... That combined with my working so many hours... I don't feel as positive as I once did about MT, and my results with my other business are coming along enough that I will hopefully leave MT within six months.

I always try to leave on good terms, even if

I really dislike the company.  Years and years ago I worked for a small local MTSO.  I wanted to work at home and she wouldn't let me so I quit.  I did tell her I would work PT at home only if she needed help and I knew she needed the help, but she was ticked at me and wouldn't give me any work.  About 2 months later she called me practically begging me to work for her, and I did.


I have applied to a company and been offered a position but turned it down and then have gone back later and applied again, but I haven't actually worked for a company and then asked to go back.


It is frequently recommended here to not quit one job before you have time to test the waters on the other, just in case. 


I would reapply or call them.  The worst they can do is say no. 


 


If you leave Co#1, do it on good terms so you

You not only posted on this forum, but another forum asking for
advice, not once, but at least twice, panic stricken.   If you didn't want the advice you shouldn't have asked and you surely shouldn't have come back her bashing people for their advice.  We are not medical professionals.  It could have just as easily been something serious and because of the lack of $$ you didn't go to the ER and you'd be singing a different song today. 
Lighten up,
 
Lighten up.

I think you need to lighten up.
They are just having fun and I did see posts where others were rude to them as well. I like to look at things from both angles.
LIGHTEN UP!!

It's not intended for young ones.....it's funny to read, but who really goes to Wal mart and does this??? I think it hilareoud to read!! I would NEVER teach my son this!!


 


This is the reason I don't like coming onto this site....toooo much b*!ching from people that can't keep their mouth shut! As a student and my teacher telling me to take a look on this site, I am ashamed by the way that you all are acting!!!!


 


I will tell my teacher that I will never come here again due to this IMATURE actions!


Lighten up. nm

oh lighten up!

Lighten up?
My doctor, I would hope, is a professional and I would not appreciate him talking about me or my body while he is on the phone dictating.  Number one he was wrong in doing that and number two, the person who posted the information here was wrong.  We are making light of a woman's dilemma about her body.  I find it most distasteful and most likely breaking the rules of the hospital where he was dictating from.
LIGHTEN UP!!!
Everybody has an opinion and from the post replies YOUR OUTNUMBERED!  I AM proud of my country and what it stands for and I did vote for BUSH!  Some people have NO SENSE OF HUMOR!
Take it far too seriously? Oh lighten up!
There goes that one nice moment on MT Stars - somebody has to come a preaching how we need to get over something! Ya think we'll all be able to move on from this? Gee, I sure hope so, too. Thanks for bringing us all back to your reality! You got my vote, sista!
Oh, lighten up and don't be such a

It's a joke - lighten up

Oh lighten up, unhappy one

lighten up, I think it's hysterical
It's the family / abdomen part that I'm really cracking up over.
Jeez!!! Lighten up!

She was obviously making a joke.  I don't understand you people.


I posted a post below saying I thought trade schools were underrated and were a very viable alternative to a college degree.  A poster responded by writing that people who feel that way aren't college material.


Dano objected to the rudeness of that poster, and now everyone is ganging up on her simply because she thinks people should be treated nicely and with respect.


Precisely what IS your problem? 


Oh woman...lighten up .sm

... and get a sense of humor!  This board could use more giggles and less crabs.


  


lighten up - I have gotten a lot of help on these boards (sm)
We're just having a fun day.  Are we allowed?  I've also noticed that many of the questions that have no answers posted are the ones that have already been asked and answered ad nauseum.  Check archives.  People get tired of repeating the same things over and over.
Oh Lighten up, it IS funny...

Can't we all just get along?    It's not like Dick Cheney is your dad or anything.... If they didn't set themselves up to be so perfect, it wouldn't be so funny when they are shown for the normal human beings that they are.


Just tryin' to lighten things up! nm

The guy was Russian, Ms. PC. Get off the soapbox and lighten up.
Believe me, the people you so condescendingly "defend" wouldn't defend you if you were getting beaten and robbed before their eyes, as a matter of fact, it would be them doing it.

Keep your "holier than thou" to yourself, as well as your misplaced pity/guilt/anti-Caucasian sentiment.
Geez, people, lighten up!!

That was funny, TechSupport. 


To the OP, with the job market being what it is, MTSOs are inundated with resumes when they advertise.  Keep at it and if you find a company that you really think sounds like a good fit, keep pinging them with e mail, call them if you can get a phone number, and be really aggressive.  The squeaky wheel that stands out is what is going to get their attention.


Good luck.


 


ASR funny to lighten the mood...sm
Must be the bitter winters. LOL

 

Allergies/intolerances - sulfa and Minnesota. 

Should be sulfa and Minocin. 

geez you guys are bitter. Maybe she's trying to lighten

Maybe she just has a fun personality?


You're turning this lighthearted thread into something entirely too deep. Lighten up.

I am sure she is kidding-it would be sick if it were real. Lighten up let a smile be your umbrella.

Lighten up! I don't see anything wrong with discussing "the Zachary segment" sm
I am a huge AI fan and plan my whole day around the show. Thank Goodness it only comes on twice a week!
"perhaps" poster above is right. Peace and Love will lighten your load. sm
I once worked a summer holiday shift by myself and transcribed something so awful that I tear up when I think about it today. It was the death of a 3-year-old, and I got ALL the 5 dictations regarding the course of this little girl. Give me the "vanity" surgeries on holidays anytime. It is not up to us to make a judgement about who "deserves" treatment, it's just our job to transcribe it correctly. The work you transcribed may have been boring, but that lets your mind drift to loving thoughts about your own family and how you will all be together soon. Like the above poster says, turn your mind to loving thoughts, even for the patient you have prejudged, your heart rate will lower and believe it or not, the day will pass more quickly.
OMG - now THAT is something the public - nm

Public
does not know.

I mentioned to my personal physician that transcription was being sent to India. He was surprised and concerned that this was happening.

Maybe we just need to educate the docs who mostly just dictate and don't know where it goes.

Sheesh. Lighten up. It WAS funny. You don't scan the enitre report, or whatever! It was amusing i

Actually, you don't have to answer that...


While I wouldn't do any of these things I thought it was a total HOOT!! Lighten up you guys. (nm)

Public TV is getting to be just as bad as cable.
Good old evening family sitcoms are just smut and garbage.  We have a Netflix membership, so I fill up the queue with kids or family movies that I've researched and approved.  The kids have been watching those all summer when they feel the need to watch TV at all.
MQ is a public company
under plenty of scrutiny right now. Are you saying they would tell a select group of employees before making the info available to shareholders? That is a violation of SEC rules. Your story is not credible. Unless your source is on the BOD, they know nothing.
No, public school in the U.S.
They had a MENSA group at the school, and we even got to CLEP college coursework.
Yes, but those pay more than public schoolteachers.
Our local college easily pays adjunct faculty twice ($30 hour) what public schoolteachers make.
When you are working with the public (sm)

there are always people who are sarcastic.  Yes, sarcastic will be among us, just like the poor.


By the way, what is your point besides needing to lash out at someone today?


I think in most USA public schools....nm

Maybe in public VIEW! lol
Article I read said it was Barbara who decided to suggest firing Star because Rosie had said the only way she would join the View was if there was no Star! That and she was annoyed by her antics over the past year. So, yeah, real class that Babs! Maybe she's been hanging out with white-trash-with-money-Rosie a little too much? Maybe next they'll ask Britney Spears to join the show. LOL!
