that they had lost the account.  They asked that I stay through the 30 days, which I did, and I appreciated the fact that they told me ahead of time.   I'm not going to starve or lose my house if I'm out of work a week, but there are many MTs who would be in a real bind if they lost a week of work.  There are lots of companies hiring so getting another job isn't the issue.  You have to submit a resume, go through an interview and testing, and then if you are hired you have to get setup and go through training, and they may end up having to take the first job that comes along because they need a job.  If we are expected to give a 2-week notice, why can't we expect the same from the company.  

I didn't believe the rumors either, but stopping DD is a red flag that something is going on.    

Christmas Day.  Yes, it was $25.00 (twenty-five).  I lost that much this morning when there was NO WORK.  I had so hoped to have a good paycheck this pay period, and was working very hard to have one -- as I need the money SO BAD.

I was appreciative of the $25, rather than some kind of novelty advertising token with company logo on it, like some MTSO's would give to a prospective client, etc.  Oh, yes, I made very good use of the $25.  I took it and paid my high-speed internet bill, a necessary tool for working my job --  which the $25 was very much short of paying that phone charge.

THANK YOU TT for the $25. 

Have any of  you rec'd anything from TT for MT week gift yet?

2 weeks, but the person I was supposed to train felt like she knew my job better than I did (although she knew squat) and was a pain to deal with, never on time, etc. so I only worked about a week of my notice before I left and told the person I was supposed to train that since she knew more than I did have at it.  Anyway the owner wouldn't pay me for vacation.  I filed a complaint with the labor board and they were more than happy to get my money for me.

Breitner can threaten all they want to.  If you can document that you are owed monies, if Breitner can't prove that you aren't owed monies the labor board will be glad to collect your money.  I would also file a complaint with the Attorney General .   I have heard several people have had payment issues with them while the still worked for them.  If people are willing to let them get away with it by just chalking it up to experience, then they will continue to try to get away with it.  I'd contact the IRS too.   I don't know what Breitner thinks they can do to you - let them threaten all they want to.  A word of advice - DOCUMENT, DOCUMENT, DOCUMENT.  

Forgot about them.  Those sucker were huge!

Another thing, I told my daughter about what my doc said this morning and guess what she told me?  She said when she goes to her doc she is given a laptop and has to fill out her own record.  She said it takes just about forever, which is probably what is going to happen with a lot of the EMRS.  Can you just imagine the mistakes that can produce.  She said then the doctor just reads the computer and doesn't ask any questions.  I never................  Is this what health care is going to come to?  Next we'll probably have the computer making the diagnosis and prescribing treatment and never even see a physician.

Any one else get these things?  Don't they offshore?  I could have swore I saw some things on here about them running out of work. 

Just wondering

Thought about just sending one to the office in general, is this tacky?  I actually am in contact with some of them more than my direct supervisor. 

How do you all handle this, if you send cards at all, that is.  This is a fairly small, very family oriented type company.  If I were still with MQ you can bet I wouldn't even though my supervisors over the years did always send out a card to me on Xmas.  I just never felt very festive when I was working there.

I love aprons - it's kind of neat to get something with your company's logo on it, usually those are things you can't buy.
