Ignore them for awhile.  They ignored you.  If they hound you, NEGOTIATE, and under no circumstances should you give them the papers that they want until you have a BANK CHECK or MONEY ORDER in hand.  (Obviously they will stiff you on a check and then laugh at you.)   That's just my take.  There's "moral," and there's relegating yourself to the status of "doormat."  Don't be a doormat.  Just my take. I'm not an accoountant, just an MT who doesn't like to be stiffed.

Thanks for the moral support! sm
do you believe it... even psych MEDS are not covered on my plan???

(yes, I am presently shopping around for new insurance LOL!)

You raise a good point though... just try doing it w/o a psych referral first. Interesting. Thanks!

All the wonderful and varied input here; you guys are great. Thank you so much.
Oh, brother! It is not a moral issue...

YOU are making it a moral issue.  It is unusual for her, and she is unsure about his statement and is therefore questioning it.  She is NOT questioning prayer.


Very interesting. May I ask how that is seen as a moral issue? sm

I understand being against the procedure and the beliefs that follow that.  I myself am against it; however, I don't see how transcribing a report about it would be morally wrong.  Upsetting? Yes, very.  Not trying to be rude or anything, I'm honestly quite curious.


 


Thank you for any insight.


Join as in moral support, call me and I will be there with my name on the line.
I have called the attorneys and given any information they may need including my name, phone, e-mail address and home address to contact me if and when I can officially become part of the lawsuit. For now, I have joined in the solidarity of supporting the original MQMTs which is better than them just standing out there alone with no support whatsoever. So if the attorneys go to them and say hey, we got a list of 1000 names who have phoned us to join in support of your efforts it's a whole lot better than no one responding the attorneys who asked MQMTs to call in their complaints.

WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?
Legal/Moral issue advice needed

I worked as an IC for a company with questionable business practices and who treated me like a dish rag for about 8 months this past year and when I finally could not take any more, I quit.  In the end I was stiffed for about $1900 in pay but I pretty much knew it was pointless to even try to get my money and decided to leave it in the past. 


Well now, they have just sent me tax papers, evidently they never got my signed forms or lost them or whatever.  My question is do I really have to fill them out and send them back, or should I hold out for my back pay, or what?  I really don't feel like I should do anything for them even though I know that it is wrong.  Does anyone know if I can get in trouble for not returning this form?


TIA,


Still angry MT


Ridiculous. It's not a medication or a procedure she's questioning. This is a moral issue.
She is way out of line to question transcribing that. You're comparing apples to oranges.
