Yep..That's what I did. Marrying a millionaire is the only way to go!!!
More than that..he's the love of my life..and makes it all about me 
I was being sarcastic as in who wants to be millionaire..sm
I quit there long ago for *your* very same reasons - tired of pets, games, and unfair workload.
this whole thread is a jib to their taking up space with their **SOAP** box.
sheeze,
We made D a millionaire, didn't we?
You really hit the nail on the head with you post.
I think you're correct. We have to accept that MDI owners have the right to do what they please with their business. I'm VERY sorry to lose MDI, but that's the way it goes sometimes.
BUT.... The WAY in which D handled it was truly horrible. In my opinion, they were devious and sneaky, leaving the work pools empty and saying nothing for weeks. All that time, I figured they had hired extra people for a new account that was supposedly coming on board, and that the new girls had to have some work until their account was up and running. So I just tried to be patient about it. Now, I feel like they made a total patsy out of me.
We did not deserve to be treated the way we were in this deal. We helped to make D a multi-millionaire with our love of her company and our loyalty and skills. She owed us better treatment than she gave us. That's for sure.
Welll....I do have a millionaire husband who IS my nanny..
Heck..he doesnt have a real job.. He can cook, clean and watch the kids LOL
I agree that Dorothy will do whatever she can to
help, but if there is not enough work to go around, then there is nothing she can do about that unless she gets rid of some people. If she switched people off of YOUR account so you could have as much work as you want, obviously those people were switched to another account, so the people on THAT account are going to have less work. Sounds like most of the accounts are running dry right now. There is only so much work and if you have too many people working it just makes sense there will not be enough to go around.
Is the owner's name Dorothy? (And her
That company's probably that new one based in Emerald City, Kansas.
Larry? Sue? Liz? Dorothy? Is that you? nm

To the MT who was *talking* w/ me a few weeks ago re MDI-MD who said Dorothy would be thrilled ...SM
to hear from me.....well, I finally decided to email them about a position. It's sure been long enough, hasn't it? lol I appreciate your encouragement and your help. We'll just have to wait and see if they have a part-time slot for me. I wasn't sure if I ever expressed my appreciation to you then, and I sure hope you see this now and recognize yourself in my subject line. Thanks again!!
Have you talked to Dorothy? I mentioned last week sm
to her that I was having to scrounge all day to get my lines, and she was very helpful -- moving other people off the account and offering to give me a 3rd account. I think if you let her know that you do not have enough work, she'll do what she can to help you. At least, that has been my experience.
And I agree with the other poster ... typically, holiday times are slower everywhere. Most people do not come in for elective procedures and such over the holidays.
Good luck -- hope you find a solution that works. :-)
Email Dorothy (owner) direct and ask
State the problem, how long do I hang on etc/ Get some definitive response. .
For the most part, I agree. Dorothy and I have butted heads a few times, sm
but I do believe that she truly cares about the welfare of her MTs, and is not some evil monster sitting on her throne, deliberately overhiring so she can make lots of people suffer. As you pointed out, it is not even good business sense.
I am not on the inside track, so I really do not know what the plan is as far as continuing to hire new MTs when many are complaining there is no work, but I have to believe there is some kind of plan. I have been fortunate. I was running out of work, and they gave me another account, so I can make my quota. Plus, I just decided I would be stubborn and sit and take the reports whenever I can get them, all day long if I have to do it that way.
I suppose in my dream world, there would always be plenty of work, anytime I want it, with only the best of the docs dictating. But, barring that, I still think MDI-MD is one of the best companies out there to work for, and I wouldn't consider leaving right now.
Speaking of work, I had foot pedal issues last night, so I am behind and should get busy.
Happy New Year, one last time.
