Do you believe things happen for a reason? sm
I interviewed and tested for a in-house job in January. Good paying job with good benefits. I was told I would be called no matter what. Never heard anything. Called and left messages. I have a prepaid Tracfone and ran out of minutes and couldn't afford any more until this past weekend. Found a message on there from this hospital from the end of Feb. I called back Monday and was basically told I had the job, that they were very impressed with me as I had done the best ever on the test. Today she calls back and tells me she is sorry, but unbeknownst to her they had offered the job to someone else a few days earlier. I am so upset. If I had gotten the message earlier, I would have had the job. I'm just beside myself. She said they might have another opening later on if they can get it approved. Yeah right in this economy? I'm hoping down the road I'll find out this was for the best, but right now its a bad blow and I'm beating myself up. I do have a job now that I hate and am basically living in poverty. Thanks for letting me vent.
We are all human and things happen! No big deal. Just tell them
you will be taking test sometime during the week. No need to pressure yourself and hurt yourself for a test that you can take anytime.
Are you referring to a specific company? If so, which one. We know these things happen, we need

They used to give out $25 Amex cheques -- give them time. :-) nm
That used to happen to me with SPI all the time
I quit SPI at the very beginning of 2007 (late January or early February) and I was still getting calls late at night to work all the way up until the beginning of August. I kept telling them over and over again that I quit a long time ago and now work for another company. I finally got so fed up with all of their late calls (the final straw was when they called me after midnight on a Friday night in August to do a stat job), so I called their main office the next day and told them that if they contact me one more time, I will report them for harassment. That stopped all of their communication with me right away and I haven't heard from them since. Maybe if you try that with OSI, it will make them get the point. Some of these companies are just plain incompetent.
Give it time, sweetie, give it time.

That always used to happen all the time at MQ when most of us were statutory.

You smell things? Give me a break! You
are really reading way too much into a simple post. I am in QA, and I do not work for the range I quoted. However, I know that many companies are now offering peanuts in the ranges I quoted, or lower with paying by the line. My friends are QA, and keep me updated with the insulting range of pay offers. Sorry, not an exec and not looking to lower anyone's anything! Stress out much?
Anyone working for Landmark right now that can give any info on things there. nm

It is only a matter of time. VR is a lawsuit waiting to happen.
Good example. Thank you for your honest input.
So many things, so little time
Nitpicky, micromanaging, bad leads, IMs through the roof, do 1 day this way, next day another way, never a good word your way but lots of bad ones.
Yes, I am. Things are slow right now, but I have been able to get it every time (sm)
I don't know for sure, but since they are advertising for 44 MTs for the new acct, I'm assuming some are already being hired, and that's why it is slow. But we will be inundated soon, so I can live with it. I like to do more than minimum, but I can manage on the minimum. It will pick up real soon!
Been with SS for a long time. Things are getting better and better.
All of management has been working very hard to improve things and I have seen big changes with a lot more to come. So far all of these are to benefit the employees.
I have to agree. I have been with MQ for a very long time and things just keep getting worse and
worse. I can imaging this new pay plan that is such a guarded secret will not be to our advantage that is for sure unless you are willing to work 24/7/365 which is what they expect now to make money. You are constantly jumping from account to account and ASR has picked the good dictators out so it is a constant string of mushmouths left that ASR cant understand, etc. etc.
Give yourself a little time ---
to get used to it; it really is pretty user-friendly. If you're having problems, give the trainer a call; she's always been very willing to help me out, and give me little 'tweaks' to use.
I would give them a little time....
Lots of things going on at the current time with the new hires and new accounts, plus the weekend is coming up. I would think the beginning of next week would be reasonable to hear back. Good luck!
Give yourself a little time; however, just
consider the transcription part of it......do you enjoy the worktypes given, can you make a decent line count....do you like the platform? If you answer yes, then give yourself some time. All new jobs are overwhelming at first.
Personally, I can usually tell if the job is for me within, at most, 1 week.
Good luck with whatever you decide.
Give it time
When did you start? Give it a couple of weeks, it does get better. Will it ever be as lucrative as straight typing, no, but it's not that bad either. I actually like editing better now. I just try to work a little faster to make up for the slight difference in my paycheck.

Give them time, they will respond.
I wish you all the best!!

lol I'd give it a little time. Who knows how many tests they
Patience is a virtue.
She cannot give up her full-time job
currently because she is testing the waters. There are a lot of posters on these boards stating they feel like job hoppers. I do not think she is giving anyone a bad name. You personally make your own bed. You must be QA. QA can get on a power trip and just never let up. I have not tested or worked for a company yet that does not ping you on something or other. It is just insane out there. No wonder people want to get out of this field. Posters slamming other posters is negative and certainly not positive. We should be empowering each other, not assuming variables on other MT's situations when we really do not know. No offense, but that is just plain nastiness in my opinion. 
Give yourself time. You are familiar with
your old account. You have to give yourself the time to adjust to new formatting, dictators, etc. with any new job.
Just give them time. Remember, there
are 100s of people seeing these ads and sending in resumes.
Give them plenty of time. I think most
places are overrun with resumes at the moment.
It's not that the pay is never on time, it's just that they don't give you an exact date; o

By flex your time, do you mean the window they give you (sm)
or something else? I can't even get the hours in during the window for running out of work. Do you just mean make up time during the week? thanks.
Give it a rest, willya? You say that every time sm
you post about Webmedx. Maybe they were short on work when you were here, but we sure aren't now... (radiology accounts excluded - I can't speak to that).
I've been there for years, work on the DSG1 side of things, pay on time, direct deposit, more
feedback lately. I have always found the staff and MTs helpful and friendly. Work does fluctuate, but if you have a few accounts, should keep you busy, also sound quality can be an issue but mostly okay.
i think the opposite, give the boot to those who are wasting everyone's time and just don't ge
the quality dropping also drops our pay for good MTs who care about quality.
Give TT some time to see if they can find cheaper plans
I also am greatly upset by the insurance hike, but I have decided to give them some time to see if they can come up with something more affordable. Like many of you, I have to insure my whole family, so this increase is astronomical.
The grass is not always greener. Changing jobs means switching out problems, and yes, some problems are easier to deal with than others. My last job (Amphion), I was so stressed out, I lost a lot of quality of life. I have young children. I can't afford to be a stressed out freak just like I can't afford the expensive health insurance. When I moved to TT, I regained my quality of life. I'm not so tired anymore, and I'm able to be a better mom. That means the world to me. I'll hang in patiently to see if another option can be found for the health insurance.
Give it time, they'll get to you. The grand plan is
my shoulder, it's a block(head). The games they play, the excuses/reasons are old, worn out, and it's aggravating to sit there staring at that NJA cyclops when others are getting the work. Dog-eat-dog is not conducive to a good work environment. We didn't create the situation but we bear the brunt.
Give it some time. I think some people aren't working today and the ice

Yes, pay on time. We give a 2-week schedule. Accounts pretty good
Why would they give you a choice of 16 or 24 hours. Usually part time is anything under 37 hours.
That is extremely odd. Well they must have something up their sleeves. Well I will be working elsewhere part time as well as with MQ as I have no intention of sitting 40 hours with no work from Amherst and be expected to have 150 lph with no work. What is all this window of work time they said they would be giving everyone. I figured all along they would do away with SE. I have already been looking around and ordered a new computer to send theirs back.
"warned" by someone who won't give facts or sign her name. Give me a break! nm

I don't think that could happen at....
Heartland, only because they already have 2 Indian facilities plus a domestic team? Do you think?
It can happen anywhere...
We were told so many lies by the woman who owned our company, who stayed to run it after she sold it. And the lies told by the company who bought the company were just outrageous. I never would have believed this could have happened, or that the former owner would have become so dishonest and manipulative. It was to the point where no one in the company trusted people we'd known and worked with for years. It was really awful and it can happen in any company. I hope it doesn't happen to you at Heartland but look at what's gone on there in the past few years. How much turnover has there been in upper management? If the president, who founded the company, was fired, why do you think anyone at the parent company cares about you? They care about one thing and that is $$$$$$$$$.
When did this happen??
I have been with them for quite a while and have not heard anything yet. Would not surprise me though....I'll have to think about whether to cooperate with this or not. I already know I'm nuts....ha :)
That did happen....
.....at the end of 2004 into 2005 that did happen with my company. It was not an issue of the company not being able to pay, they were trying to get set up with direct deposit at the time. I was a fairly new employee and my first check arrived without problem. My second and third ones did not arrive but when I brought it to their attention, they immediately wired the money to me. Once all the paperwork and computer set up was taken care of for direct deposit, we've had no trouble since. I was rather upset and concerned at the time too, but the people were so down to earth and kind I just knew they would make it right and they did.
If you'd like to email to see if we are talking about the same company, please feel free.
Will NEVER happen

Does this happen often??? because
I was going to use their online application to apply for a job today!
Unfortunately, what seems to happen
on these boards is that certain people feel that it is their way or no way. We are all entitled to post our opinion about a company. I personally would prefer to hear all of the comments, good and bad. I won't base my decisions on what others say but will certainly pay attention to what is said. There is no point in any one getting offensive. If you don't like what is said about your company, then don't read it, but just because you don't like it does not mean that it is a false statement. We each have the right to express our opinion on this board; that's what we do and there is nothing preventing you from not reading it. There is no point in beating the issue to death.
Did this happen to all QA

Did this happen to all QA or just a few

Would you happen to know if (SM)
you must use their computer euipment? TIA. 
Does this happen often?
I just started with TT and so far I haven't run out yet, but I'm only part time. I was thinking about going full time, but not if there isn't any work to do.
,,,it can happen. nm

When did this happen? sm
When I was there they only had one plan that was hugely expensive and no one bothered to ask if you wanted to sign up, although perhaps they assumed (rightly so in my case as a newbie) that one would not be able to make the minimum lines in 30 days.
How did that happen?
