UPDATE: CARD AND GIFT CARD ARRIVED TODAY FROM TRANSCEND. USPS STINKS...
It tooks what looks like over 2 weeks to get there. It could have been shipped to a third world country is that much time. Shame on USPS. I guess you get what you pay for..even at 41 cents.Yikes. Sorry to my employer.
Transcend always sends a nice handwritten card and a gift card
I just got my card today, and it is still five days before Christmas.
You really cannot please all the people all of the time, even when it comes to gift giving. I am so surprised at some of these comments.
Merry Christmas to all!
Who is expecting a bonus/card/gift from employer this year or (sm)
plans to send card/gift/etc. to their employer?
I thought a card to my supervisor (if she is still there) from MQ would be appropriate. Actually that is the only person I have contact with anymore. For all the years I have worked at MQ, someone, either supervisor/area manager, etc. has sent a card. Hope it continues. Miss the personal touch of working in an office sometimes.
My second job I don't know exactly how many are in the office, but thought sending a group food type gift if shipping alone isn't a killer. Haven't been with them long, but they are so sweet, I bet they also send out cards and bet they are personally signed and not just printed.
Our gift card and Christmas card were appreciated.. Check this out......
I have only worked for MDI a few months, but I can tell you they appreciate their MTs. Compared to the doctor I have worked for 9 years for and whom USED to give me a $1000 bonus, but this  year.. NOTHING.. I had been working both jobs, but that made me decide to tell the doctor to take a hike and devote all my time to MDI.. where I'm appreciated...
I received a Christmas card and a gift card 2

I appreciated the Christmas card and gift card..
I don't feel that the MDI/Transcend plays favorites at Christmas. I appreciated the thoughtfulness of the signed Christmas card and gift card. Also, I work the holidays when someone on my team wants the day off. This is a good company to work for. I agree with the above posts--if you're not happy, there are other companies who may suit you better. Happy Holidays to all! 
I got a card and a gift card They are always very good
to us. Transcend has nothing to do with it.
I think a gift card (sm)
Wal*Mart, Amazon.com, something like that. It's the thought that counts. It's nice to feel appreciated!
I get $100 gift card from my doc plus
a wonderful card thanking me for all the hard work I do all year round, and my company sends a $25 gift check.
Gift card
Hey, maybe for someone an extra $25 would come in handy. We do not know each others situations. The one thing I do know is the amount of income lost this year as compared with the past.
No, the poster was saying that it would be nice to be recognized, that we are not computers placing words into computers, that there is actually someone somewhere making sure that the work is accurate, on time, and profitable. None of us have our collective hands out..
I got a card and a gift.. as did everyone I spoke to
You may want to wait a few days and take that back.
Did you send her a card or a gift? nm

I got a gift card from Transcend!
I am very happy about thank and thankful for a great job!
Transcend gift card
I got my gift card from Transcend today too. Its not a ton of money but every year they send us one. It is nice to be remembered.
We usually get a gift card for Walmart.. Last year,
I donated mine to a single mom whose 10-year-old was not going to get a Christmas because mom couldn't afford it. I've been a single mom so my heart went out to her and I got a bunch of people to donate items i.e. tree, ornaments etc.. food, gifts etc. I felt good about it and I know my employer would have felt good about me donating it to a family in need.

A card and $25 gift check from TransTech. It was

Did you ever get anything? I'm perplexed why some people got just cards, some got card and gift c
and some of us nothing. I can't imagine they forgot some people but it's starting to look that way. Oh well, at least we have work.
American Express gift card from Axolotl. nm

I was sent a gift card by mistake- addressed to my supervisor
I emailed my supervisor and she said sh ewas expecting a gift card in the mail and to mail it to her. I called the company... they said it was a mistake.. So, I am wondering, did only management get giftcards, or did all employees but me get a gift card. I happily mailed the card to my supervisor. I also sent my notice of resignation to Probity.
Yes, card and bonus check.
It was quite a surprise since I have only worked for them for a few months.
Geez... the "merger" was three years ago and I still got my gift card (today!)
Thank you Transcend - I love working there.
On another note though,isn't it amazing how people can come here and complain about a gift?? Wow.
Got a card and $50 bonus from Transtech last year.
Christmas bonus/card? Did anyone get anything this year?
I know there is still time but usually we get a card by now.
Acusis - Anybody get a Christmas bonus, card, etc.?

Nice Christmas card and $100 bonus.
I didn't get a Christmas bonus or even a card
glad to see how much we are appreciated by our company.
Nothing from Transcend, although I heard others got gift cards or at least a card. I've worked th
several years so if it was just a case of being forgotten that is still pretty pathetic. How do you forget your employees, especially when you get junk bulk mail from there regarding nothing that involves you..but at Christmas you were forgotten. Oh well, I have work and for that I am grateful so I'll be nice...
Worked for them for years. First time not even a card, email, gift certificate, acknowledgment of s
any kind. The new management is so cheap. Hope they aren't counting on the accolades of employee of the year this year. They certainly are not that, and not even in the top ratings. Everything changed this year. And not for the better.
TransTech sent an Amex gift cheque and a lovely card signed by all the office staff.
Very thoughtful and a nice surprise. I love these people.
Got a card
I got a card last week. Don't know if that is all we are getting or not. WIll know when I get my paycheck.
NO ID or SS card
Only if you are an IC.. If you are NOT an employee, they do NOT need it. They send you a 1099.
That's what the SS card is for!! And your sm
driver's license will verify your signatures and name.
Read up on it at SSA online.
I got a card from them. nm

LOL. It's not the same card. I kept the last three. sm
I know that a few years ago, they stopped sending gifts because no matter what they did, someone would complain. I like the cards and get paid well. I would rather make good money year round than lousy money plus a $25 gift!
No X-mas card -- nothing...sm
You know last year was my first year with this company. I was surprised when I got a $50 bonus for X-mas last year. This year I wasn't really expecting a bonus because of the economy and all. I did, however, think they would have at least sent a X-mas card. No card. No nothing. No email stating happy holidays. Absolutely nothing. I thought it was a little inconsiderate of them. I wasn't expecting money. I just thought they would send some type of holiday wish.
I got a card
I wasn't one of the ones complaining, but I did get a nice card from my employer. I don't expect anything from my bosses. When I do get something I am appreciative. The only thing I actually demand and expect from them is the appropriate paycheck on payday.
card
I received a beautiful card also from the owner of the company that I work PT for. I also work PT for a local store, only working one day a week, and received $100 bonus- which I was totally not expecting and was very grateful for! It is nice to receive a card just to let you know how much you are appreciated! Thanks AF!!!
Once again, I'll say that I believe no card is due to the sm
new, stupid, law that disallows wishing people a Merry Christmas. I haven't received my usual card from the other company I work for, either. This brings me to what I think is an accurate conclusion--we can blame the lawmakers for their new ridiculous law.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY. HAPPY HANUKKAH. HAPPY KWANZA.
So, put me in jail, already, lawmakers.
I always get a card and for other reasons other than
work reasons, not even gotten that one yet.
What about all the credit card
numbers you give them when you order something?
Last year, I tried to order a Dell keyboard. I must have wound up on the phone with someone from India, and before I could give her my credit card number, she insisted on knowing whether it was a personal or business account.
At that point, I told her I didn't feel comfortable giving my information to her, and I hung up. I will never order anything from Dell again because of this. In fact, I've limited my on-line, over-the-phone purchases since this happened.
I agree with you that we should boycott, but maybe we shouldn't limit it to the healthcare industry. 
Futurenet sent a card..nm

Christmas card
Thinking back over the years we used to get a corporate card but now I think we only get a card if our supervisor and/or manager decide to remember us, some do and some don't. Since I have had about 6 supers this year, I doubt it. Once I got a $5.00 gift certificate for Starbucks from my super, that was nice but the nearest Starbucks is 50 miles away as I live in South Georgia boondocks. Seeing that I haven't even had a cost of living raise with MQ for 7 years, I don't look for a CHRISTMAS BONUS!!!!! Do you work for MQ? Hope you get one if you don't.....
Well, it seems to me if credit card
Most of the telephone reps have an accent! So, I'm sure they're sitting their with my information too. I'm sure they don't care about my last colonoscopy or Pap smear, but they sure do have my credit card number, social security number, and address. What can someone do with your medical history? Can they steal your identity with your medical history? Let's be realistic here.
have you considered an air card?
Check with Sprint, Verizon and some of the other cell phone carriers. I got a USB air card through Sprint, and the connection is great!!! However, there are several factors that come into play with these, including how far you are from a cell phone tower, but at least with a USB card, you could utilize it with a laptop or a desktop as long as you have an available USB connection. Hope this helps.
I always send a card that says
something about Happy Holidays. That way everybody can feel included. A holiday can mean anything from Christmas to Hanukkah to just a holiday from work.
Did you send THEM a card?
It's a 2-way street.
Kind of piggy to expect a Christmas card/gift from someone. Do you treat your friends and family this way too?
Gifts/cards should be unsolicited.
Yes, I did send THEM a card....sm
I know it is a 2-way street. I don't think it is PIGGY to expect a card from someone you work for. I didn't know that people actually do not recognize people who work for them at the holiday season. I know now. My husband did not get a card or anything either, and we know these people well he works for. He has bent over backwards for these people. I was shocked.
Maybe I feel this way because my mom is a business owner and has NEVER not given her employees a gift, much less not even a card. It is inconsiderate. When someone makes you your money, you should show some consideration.
LOL on the card from the job you quit!

That new time card
Excel - It's only 5 lines and no empty fields to put anything in? My coworker can't even open it, doesn't have Excel on her computer. Anybody got an answer?
and pre-Transcend, we at least got a Christmas card and even
a very much appreciated gift certificate, but guess Transcend is too cheap to allow that for MDI
