These posts make me laugh. I don't SM

have time to put a target on someone's back and I doubt anyone else doing this job does either.  Many of us have a production quota to meet, just like you do.  Do you really think I am going to slow down my production so I can gather my peers to develop a strategy to make your life miserable?

Ive been an MT for 13 years. I was an IC for 10 years, and a FTE for a local hospital for the last 3 years. I came back from vacation in June to discover my lovely boss was interviewing companies to outsource the MT department. He lied to us - told us not to worry - and then a month later our union received the '60 day notice' letter and we were out on our assess. I took a job as a unit secretary - and a $5 an HOUR paycut along with it, working 3-11 and alternate weekends. Am I crazy to do this. Well yes and no.  I now have unlimited O/T, I'm keeping my awesome union benefits, building toward being vested in 2 more years, and just landed an IC MT job doing guess what: MY OLD JOB. The company that outsourced us hired me. I plan to rake in the bucks in the AM and do the b.s. job at night. 3-11 is half the work as a day job - plus you get the shift differential. Wish me luck !

I used to work in a hospital too.

but I just Googled it and the first hit was a newt--a salamander type thingy.  Killed me!  Was the company named with that intention?  Your company's name was a 3rd hit...if it's any consolation.  

Our insurance went up and was nearly impossible to understand.  I checked AARP's plans, they're comparable to what the company offers at about $25 more including dental and eye, and a lot less confusing.  If the insurance goes up again next year and becomes more incomprehensible, it's AARP for me.
