Same here. I too was expecting (sm)
the 12 foot binder full of paperwork. It really is simplified and also allows you to have many secondaries that you can jump into with ease if need be. When you happen to be in that specific client's report, you just hit a hot key combination and up will come the information for that account - all the formatting, in many times a sample of that particular dictator, etc. It really does remove a lot of the clutter. I think you'll find it to be a welcome change.
Am I expecting too much or am I
This MT has lots of years of experience and has sent out resumes the past couple of weeks in answer to jobs posted here and elsewhere. I am an SE and looking to supplement my income. In the past whenever I would send a resume, I would get at least an automatic reply: We have received your resume, and will be reviewing it shortly, or something like that. Now, I get no response whatsoever. There could be the sounds of crickets in the background.
Could there be something with my e mail? My resume has always done well for me, and even with my added 1 job in the last year. And it isn't like I am applying to jobs which are not looking for people. I apply to the types of positions they seek, and I have lots of experience.
Finally, my question to you is this. I have been offered a job with an American company but they do offshore. I initially said that when I found out they off-shored I had to decline, personal policy of working for USA only. If I get no responses to my resumes now, should I go to the other job which off-shores in spite of my feelings on the subject? Would feeding a family and having money for the holidays be more important than my stance on offshoring versus all USA?
Thanks in advance for your replies to the above. This MT is really kind of confused, I realize there is a recession, but seems like employers are acting kind of strange... maybe it is me! 
I did not get anything and was no EXPECTING anything (sm)
and that is okay with me. People should not EXPECT gifts. Although my boss did send us a letter stating how grateful she was and it was very sincere. I work for a wonderful company and they are great people.
Be about like expecting them
to vote in term limits. Anybody see that happening?
Ms. Manners would say expecting to be thanked for
offputting and not the norm in society. If someone gives you a compliment, you say, thank you, and smile graciously. If you expect the person who gave you the compliment to thank you for saying thank you...you might was well climb on a merry-go-round because the two of you will be doing nothing the rest of the day but thanking each you.
Thank you! No, thank you! No, don't thank me, thank you! No, no, don't thank me, thank you!...
get the picture?
not expecting them to do it, just want to hear the response! lol
Realize not all of these questions are going to have a response I'd like to have, but I do what to know what the alternative answers are. :-)
Yes, I think you're right about expecting downhill with them.
I've been attempting QA with them and not only is the software slow with numerous problems for QA, but the reports I'm getting to QA basically need to be redone. I find it hard to believe that an MT actually typed some of the sloppy, full of error reports I've seen, and 4 cpl is not enough money to sit around redoing every report. I'm afraid I'm finished with this place.
Wow, expecting a gift. CHILDREN expect gifts. Maybe..
your gift is the fact that you have a job during this current economic crisis. If you get something, fine; if not, are you going to quit? You still have 4 days to wait by your mailbox for your gift, if you should get one.
Wasnt expecting anything but got a nice box of chocolates and a card
I shared my chocolates with neighbors because Lordy, Lord, I do not need to be looking at a nice box of chocolates all day, because I wouldnt be looking at it all day - know what I mean? :}
I didn't say anything about expecting ... I just asked a simple question. sm
I have worked long enough at the company to know their practices so was just surprised, that is all. It is nice of you to chime in with your veiled criticism, though. It is no big deal. I just found out last night that I need new tires for my car, and waiting 1 more day to have that done won't kill me.
There ARE troublemakers on this board, but I was not stirring up trouble. I just know that things have slipped through the cracks sometime and was just checking. The faster I get it solved, the faster I get paid.
No matter what, I hope you have a good day and everyone treats you better than you treat them.
What is wrong with a good MT knowing what she is worth and expecting to be compensated
:l
Give me one too! Imagine the nerve of them expecting you to work your shift.
LOL
Who is expecting a bonus/card/gift from employer this year or (sm)
plans to send card/gift/etc. to their employer?
I thought a card to my supervisor (if she is still there) from MQ would be appropriate. Actually that is the only person I have contact with anymore. For all the years I have worked at MQ, someone, either supervisor/area manager, etc. has sent a card. Hope it continues. Miss the personal touch of working in an office sometimes.
My second job I don't know exactly how many are in the office, but thought sending a group food type gift if shipping alone isn't a killer. Haven't been with them long, but they are so sweet, I bet they also send out cards and bet they are personally signed and not just printed.
i proofed a few reports from a filapino and i was shocked at the good quality. wasn't expecting
