The chosen few have no problems.

I had plenty. They hound you as an IC to work a specific shift. They paid me wrong, late and VERY poorly as an employee. The insurance is insanely expensive. There are other better companies out there. I'd keep searching.

My STM has not chosen to tell me. sm
She is always pretty tight-lipped. She sent a very carefully worded E-mail the last time I asked for another account stating she would study the situation. Hmph. I know that STMs assign new accounts to those in the groups 1st and it is not until things are out of control and they beg for extra help that others get a shot at an account. I have seen this pattern for years.
Wish I'd chosen court-reporting! -(sm)-
When I was 25, my friend & I were both going to trade school. She chose court-reporting, and tried in vain to get me to take it with her. But no, I chose MT because it was faster and I could get a job quicker.
SHOULDA', COULDA', WOULDA' !!!!
If life were on videotape, I'd rewind back to that year and make the RIGHT choice this time. Too late, now - MTs are screwed.
How AAMT employer of the year is chosen
I've been on the committee before for choosing the employer of the year. MTs nominate their employers by writing letters to AAMT. There is a committee formed of maybe 5-6 people and AAMT sends fed-ex a packet containing copies of all the letters received with the names of the writers and the companies being nominated blacked out to where you can't read it.
This is so that everything read is anonymous and you don't know which companies are being nominated.
Each committee member reads those letters and then there is a conference call where each committee member is allowed to talk about the nomination letters and basically they vote and narrow it down to a winner.
It is TOTALLY anonymous in the process and believe me, I've been on the committee, so I know what I'm talking about. Even when the committee has chosen a winning nomination letter, they do not find out WHAT company was associated with that letter until after the winning letter was chosen.
I'm only explaining this process because I believe the above poster is incorrect when making the assumption that the AAMT prez and Medware being named AAMT employer of the year are somehow connected. It was a total fluke that the current AAMT Prez just happened to work at the same company which was chosen as employer of the year.
The recipient has chosen to share HER letter with us. nm
Maybe I'm paranoid, but sounds as if someone WASN'T chosen...
