You are not the only one who has worked hard for the company, but it doesn't matter if I like the people or not -- I have to make a living.  Your callous disregard for that fact (along with theirs), calling it something like an oversight or human error is a slap in the face to those of us who struggle alone to support a family on a measly 30-40 minutes of dictation a day, coupled with the fact that we were out and out lied to about the shortage of work.  How can there be mutual respect in a situation like that?

I am glad you support and care for them, and I hope they never leave you high and dry like they have done the rest of us.  I, for one, am done.  I don't need the lovey-dovey family talk when it is all a pack of lies.  That kind of family I do not need.

Just because two of you have work does not discount that the rest of us do not.  I struggled to get 1000 lines yesterday, had to keep dialing back in scrounging for work.  And as others have said here, we have talked to Dorothy and MDI is aware that there is not enough work to go around.  Maybe you two have an account that they did not put too many MTs on.  Apparently on mine they did.  I have been on this account for many years and I have always had work until the last several months.
