Its human nature
to hear and see the bad. Bad always trumps good and the saddest part of all, the same people trashing it won't come back to post good things after they've tried it and were proven wrong.
Nature of the job
QA is always loathed.
That's the nature of an MT
No problem... I do believe many of us are very much alike. I am always impatient and especially when it comes to work! I have often bugged my ISP at 3 in the morning LOL. But it got the job done...:)
Its the nature of this particular board because
no one has to actually register and be accountable. There are lots of other nice MT sites, professional, friendly, supportive, and this catty behavior just doesn't happen or isn't accepted. Its not censored out either - as in posts disappearing - but the threads get locked when someone says something nasty. Those posters quickly come back here to there anony turf where they can rag away!
The nature of the business

Just be sure to also get therapy for your cold and thoughtless nature. nm

Just update your resume, be more complete but keep it brief. They just want to know the nature of yo
If you want a job, and they want to know how to fit you for which department, best to say what you can do like basic 4 acute 10 years, etc. Nothing wrong with that question. They are just trying to match your skills with the job. Some MTs have only done clinic notes or psych notes and some have never done ops no matter 10 or 20 years, etc. Put yourself in their shoes and you will find a reasonable answer. IMHO
I understand that, but tis the nature of this profession to expect a slowdown sm
with major holidays -- Christmas, Thanksgiving, 4th of July, Labor Day, etc. Patients do not go in for elective procedures, docs take time off, etc. That's just part of the game. I just try to put a little aside during the feast times to prepare for the famine times.
I think you should give them a chance. They are good people and they do care. I doubt you'll find ANY place that has a constant flow of work, 24/7. If you, please let us all know so we can enjoy too.
He sounds human!!
Yep, he's correct.
Ok - so I had a typo. I am human ya know.

Wow! It would take a human robot to do that every day.
It would take me at least 11 hours to do that.

There is a saying that most Americans are ONLY one paycheck away from being homeless. You say you can identify with being broke and impoverished, like those in India. Well, what if you are REPLACED BY AN INDIAN TRANSCRIBER and you become broke and impoverished AGAIN?
It is one thing to buy flip flops made off-shore from Walmart, quite another thing when VP Cheney's 4 heart bypasses and pacemaker insertions could be vunerable to prying eyes in off-shore in India, or worse their next door neighbor, Pakistan, where AL Quaeda is hiding in the Pakistani mountains.
ANYMORE QUESTIONS!
Can you be human for a minute?
Please, Carlotta, get off your high horse for a minute. You know darn well that accounts have been overstaffed in order for MDI to shine for their clients in regard to TATs. There is a lack of balance going on here whether it is over hiring or something else. There is NOT ENOUGH WORK! We have been out of work for WEEKS! And, Carlotta, you hound the hell out of people and threaten to bring their wages down to an impossibly low rate on a prn basis if they don't live up to their committments in a near-impossible work environment. You are transcription's version of Hitler.
Did you read any of the posts below? Did you read some of the concerns that REAL people, VALUABLE transcriptionists are having? Why don't you or the owner care? You rule with an iron fist, Carlotta. When you try to say how great the company is, it's a real slap in the face for those of us who are out here in the trenches trying be a part of the MDI team and very little in return.
You, MDI, should have an overall feel for the accounts. No, you cannot predict, but you can give us some insight if accounts may be winding down because they are moving to EMR or changing service providers or whatever. You could be decent enough to guide us in the right direction so that we could continue to be valuable to MDI and support our families. No, no, instead we get hounded and threatened about line counts.
Did you read below, Carlotta, how we do go to our 2nd, 3rd, 4th and so on backup accounts? Do you comprehend that we have to mentally change gears to relearn account specifics and the dictators and that really slows a person down? And on top of that, those accounts are SLOW, TOO!
Instead of telling us MDI has the best group of people (management) ever assembled, why don't you listen to the people helping you get your paycheck! Why don't you prove your greatness by being a better listener. Do you realize you are impossible to talk to because instead of listening all you do is e-mail responses that are criticizing and demeaning, to those of use who are sincerely trying to work hard for you.
Come on, please.
My capitalizations are not for yelling, just for emphasis.
Under Human Resources at top, then sm
I think it's under General. There is a link to the updated jury duty policy and then under that is the link to the employee handbook.
guess it IS human. nm

Tickle Me Elmo:
There is a factory in Northern Minnesota which makes the Tickle Me Elmo toys. The toy laughs when you tickle it under the arms.
Well, Lena is hired at The Tickle Me Elmo factory and she reports for her first day promptly at 8:00 AM.
The next day at 8:45 AM there is a knock at the Personnel Manager's door. The Foreman throws open the door and begins to rant about the new employee. He complains that she is incredibly slow and the whole line is backing up, putting the entire production line behind schedule.
The Personnel Manager decides he should see this for himself, so the 2 men march down to the factory floor. When they get there the line is so backed up that there are Tickle Me Elmo's all over the factory floor and they're really beginning to pile up.
At the end of the line stands Lena surrounded by mountains of Tickle Me Elmo's. She has a roll of plush red fabric and a huge bag of small marbles. The 2 men watch in amazement as she cuts a little piece of fabric, wraps it around two marbles and begins to carefully sew the little package between Elmo's legs.
The Personnel Manager bursts into laughter. After several minutes of hysterics he pulls himself together and approaches Lena. I'm sorry, he says to her, barely able to keep a straight face, but I think you misunderstood the instructions I gave you yesterday...
Your job is to give Elmo two test tickles.
every human makes errors.....
we get paid low enough as it is
Could be she has bad days - called being human
maybe it is just the bad applicants with chips on their shoulders and she really does know how to recognize talent from strut talk.
Human? Must be on the cymed side then.
Definitely not the SPI side - those Nashville people are insane.
Firstly, you are a human being, you matter, and you
should never be told to just get out of the business, and whomever would tell you that you take with a grain of salt (because that is useless and usually speak that comes down from management to keep people where they want them).
Until women realize their full worth and potential, this is going to keep happening. Unfortunately, the majority sets the tone and there are too many people willing to work for almost nothing (why I do not know) but in my experience men who never allow this. Sometimes I think we get so preoccupied with wanting to BE like men rather than to make use of some of the good things, such as self-worth confidence but still being women.
Funny but as an aside I see so many young girls out in public and they are exactly the way young boys used to be when I was in high school. The roles have reversed rather than blending the good things of both men and women. That is my opinion
We are all human and things happen! No big deal. Just tell them
you will be taking test sometime during the week. No need to pressure yourself and hurt yourself for a test that you can take anytime.
you're gonna feel like a new human sm
being for sure! Congrats!
Company ok, but the human ratsources and payroll stinks.
They play good game of being KGB, screw up more than anyone else in the company, but never get in trouble, just keep compounding their mistakes. The wondeful programs to keep track of us never work right, but they are so nasty to us that no one wants to work for them. Why is management so blind?
They said they have very few IC positions, and this would be discussed in January with Human Resourc
thus they are going to try to get you to go full-time employee and get benefits and take a lower pay. Did you not notice how she was trying to play up the you will get benes now BS?
Are you required to work major holdays at KS. I know nature of biz to work them. Thanks for info. nm
