I have been called worse things in my life! They are a great company to work for (been doing this for 20+ years), but I better be quiet now because people are getting tired of hearing about TT!

        So you don't get paid for headers/footers... just a straight 65 character line - Happy Camper

        Okay, this is turning ugly. These kind of comments are unprofessional - TT2
        These are cardiac procedure notes that will only be 1-liners or 2 on a horrible new account. - TT bonus this weekend referred to re 50 and 100

        How right you are... - Matilda
        Suppose it just adds to the hominess. One big happy - family. Just don't ask questions.

Thank you sweetie!!
I know, you only have to be in this situation to ever think it will happen to you, but hey, we have our health, right!!! LOL!!!! That's what everyone wants to say. People can be cruel, but that's life. I appreciate people like you and sometimes you have to have all of these hardships to be the compassionate and nice people you are. See, you posted and made me feel really good. I appreciate that!!!

BTW, I am NOT your SWEETIE and sm
if you were an MTSO why did you work all those 19 hour days if you are so against it now? Simply because you had to because you were an MTSO. Well the folks that work for MTSOs have to work when the work is there! But then you should know that huh?

Robert's a sweetie.

seriously....Sweetie?.....stop already; it was not much of a brag;
nm

Oh no sweetie. I have done acute care also. (sm)
I also had my own business and did work the 19-hour days. And back then, I was making 0.10 cpl, right out of school! So, I have worked in all fields.

I have been in a position of having to have a paycheck, but that does not mean I am going to jump on the next street corner just to get the money. That is selling yourself short. And that is what the MTSOs have done to this profession; not the MTs who refuse to work weekends.

I've been in this business since 1978, sweetie

No sweetie, you were coming to branching, thank your company by their email.
nm

TT talks sweet, but I have never desired even a store clerk to call me sweetie . . . those niceties
have never impressed me unless they come from my husband/lover.

Give it time, sweetie, give it time.
