you really are going to be ill when you see the work that is typed every day. It is much easier and less stressful to be responsible for your own report. At least if you are typing or doing VR, you can have some pride in your work. The only people you'll see in QA are the lazy ones who have no pride and no longer care.

Read carefully
Am I bitter? Nope, I have a very good job with an excellent MTSO. Pay good and on time, plenty of work.
HOWEVER...
Read these boards lately, and actually absorbed their contents? How many MTs do you see on here DESPERATE to find work, at any cost? They can't even get an acknowledgement to their resumes and their posts scream of their desperation. MTs on the verge of evication. MTs wondering where their next meal will come from. MTs getting their benefits cut because they cannot make lines due to lack of work.
That, my fellow MT, is where MY compassion lies. Not for some second-income, I don't need to work at all and I'm turning down jobs that don't fit my schedule. What a slap in the face to our fellow MTs are who struggling to survive!
Where is YOUR mind? Where is YOUR heart?
I'm guessing you're probably one of those providing a secondary income to your family for 'extras' and NOT the sole provider as so many of us are, otherwise your compassion would perhaps go in the same direction my compassion goes.
Read that MQ board? Talk about a heartbreaker. Those women are applying everywhere and having no luck; they're trapped. IMO, THAT is reason for sympathy and heartfelt sorrow. Not someone with a self-professed great job taking up the valuable time of MTSOs who weed through applications for candidates only to find she really isn't interested anyway.
Perhaps you need to look in your own little Christian-based glass house before you start tossing stones.
I suspect the bitterness lies within YOU.
I don't either. I read the email carefully.

read the posting carefully...sm
I specifically put an end date to accepting applications because seems like I get them for the rest of my life. Also anyone who sends one after my applications close gets put on my junk mail list and I never see 'em again. That's what they get for not following directions.
If you read what I wrote more carefully
you would see that I said it is fine as long as they tell you up front. Which they don't. Which means it isn't fine.
In other words, I was being a little sarcastic :)
If you read her post carefully...
She does indeed indicate they employ about 25 ILPs that do this for 'price point' reasons and apparently the client is in agrement.
Absolutely - listen carefully!
Though not at Transcend, I have just recently been a victim of exactly the sequence of events and circumstances posted above. It was sooo hard to keep my mouth shut, with a lead sending condescending, negative, accusatory, power-hungry, and just plain idiotic e-mails. Just couldn't do it, wanting to have my side/opinion/defense known to all the blind CC's - management. The power went to her head, and it was like being assaulted through e-mail on a daily basis. When I made a suggestion, it was rudely shot down immediately.
I wish I had though, because it was my demise. It also was a damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don't situation, though, so I really still don't know what I could have done differently. You have to respect yourself, you know?
Anyway, to the posters who said just keep doing a good job -- that doesn't really matter anymore. There is no work ethic anymore. There are plenty in line waiting for your job. There is no one to help us. We are at their mercy.
And to the suggestion, if you don't have resolution, go higher -- YEAH, RIGHT!!! Management just LOVES that! Look where it got me!! That absolutely does not work anymore - so please, please just follow the rules and keep your mouth shut about everything!
Read their contract VERY carefully if you proceed. nm

I think if you look carefully at the bottom of most apps, you give
I have not filled out a single application in years that didn't request permission for a credit check. Scary, huh?
If I were the company, I'd pick my battles more carefully.
And better still, I'd try harder avoid the conflict by treating my employees like human beings. Happy, well-compensated employees are less likely to post negative comments than unhappy ones who feel wronged or cheated.
I don't think you can have it both ways. You can't continually kick your workers around, and then expect them to keep on licking your hand. Sooner or later, they're gonna bite.
Bayou, why don't you read more carefully. I was correcting my OWN typo ! WOW !
Get a life !
If you'll read more carefully you'll see
I was referring to AFTER she's missed out on a job, having a friend do sort of an audit to tell her what what was wrong with her test she submitted -- not cheating.
