Guilty?

You said Cbay no longer had MTs. That's not true. Now you want to say unless A, B, or C.... well then that supports what you said is not true.
And I have NOTHING to feel guilty about. I'm intelligent and wise enough to know that we live in a global economy. I educated myself and acquired necessary skills and do not feel at all threatened by work going to India or VR or anywhere else. Good MTs can always find work :)
BTW, Cbay has treated me just fine so a better company would need to be defined. I make good money, love the boss, and see no reason to look anywhere else.

Guilty if I work too much, guilty if I don't. (sm)
Not wanting to stir anything up but...The office I work out of wants you (SE here) to do anything extra you can. Keeps them from having to pay out so much in bonuses I guess. Then I get on this board and see others from other offices not having enough work. I feel guilty either way even though how much I do or don't do for my office in no way impacts the other offices with low work.
I am truly sympathetic for those without enough work or having to scratch around a multitude of small accounts to get it though.
im a guilty one too c msg
i work my part-time job as an ic in the morning.
the one im slacking in is my full time job, in which i am paid hourly as a remote hospital employee. i make my required minimum, but i do slack on the incentive every now and then because i wanna watch the news or american idol, or surf the web, etc. i need to stop this because i know i cant afford to lose this job.
Guilty? For what? Having an opinion?
I do not feel that anybody was sold down the river. However, I simply do not do business with anyone who offshores. That is my personal principle and I stand by it. I got a new job the next day and am making as much as I made at MDI. MDI treated me very well, I really like them and I wish them all the best, but the current merger just did not work for me. I wish everybody well, those who left and those who stayed.
Only guilty of asking a simple question
:(
Well, if that's the case, then I won't feel guilty for -
ignoring it from now on, and just following my references and the BOS. I was going nuts bouncing back and forth trying to keep up with the *correction-du-jour* that kept changing all the time. I got one correction the other day that wasn't even a correction - it was exactly the same before and after QA's *change* was posted. Incredible. These people must be getting paid based on how MANY *corrections* they make, not on how ACCURATE their *corrections* are! From now on, I'm not going to waste my time even looking at them anymore. That time is money, something I sure don't have enough of already.
on MDI merger, anyone feeling guilty?
I feel terrible for having copped such a bad attitude, ie, that we were sold down the river. Having settled down and really looked at those Q&A emails and considered our economy and the market and/or world as it is today, I am having a change of heart. The fact that MDI has done such a fine job of taking care of us and the business all this time, lends to my thinking why would they suddenly not care about us? It is not a perfect world and choices are not always easy. I do think we have been spoiled by MDI in such a good way that other companies look rotten. But I am hoping I am not alone and that more MDIer's will give this merger a chance. Happy labor day weekend my friends.
Not feeling guilty about taking new job
Like they said,*business is business* and we take care of our own, right?
It is what it is
Heck no I don't feel guilty. (sm)
All the messages of I am saving your jobs and help out or this account is going to leave, etc. and I busted my butt all those weekends only to line D's pockets...No way do I feel guilty!
No guilty conscience...no martyr syndrome, either.
Our experiences are obviously pretty different, and you think MTs are greedy and self-serving. Perhaps I was fortunate to know a completely different group of people.
I am not arguing my ethics in this, which are just fine, and I am not arguing that this profesion is about dealing with human beings. I am saying that poor quality cannot be laid sqaurely at the door of the MT.
Why do you not hold the MTSO responsible for firing these incompetent greedy MTs or the hospital for not having them removed from their account for having so many errors? Why aren't they expected in your mind to have as much at stake in patient care as an MT?
I truly believe your heart is in the right place. I believe it is inherent for everyone to do the best job possible. What I am saying is the players in this industry, all of whom should have patient care upmost in their minds, are trading quality for money. This is money that they take out of MTs pockets creating a situation that will ultimately further decrease the quality of patient documentation.
The good MTs like you, who obviously care, will leave the profession when YOU cannot make enough money. The MTs that are blowing through reports to make money will stay because THEY make good money. The MTSOs who are not firing these MTs because they are making money off of them will stay because they have a great profit margin. The hospitals will try to squeeze 1 more cpl out of everyone for the year-end bonus, and then more newbies will flood the market coming in without any mentoring or QA to submit a finished document directly to the medical record that the doctor signs without reviewing it because there is another emergency to be taken care of.
