How about WAITING UNTIL THE CALL? sm
Before JUMPING to conclusions?? Holy cow. Unreal. I think it is to announce how well we are doing and talk about all the new work we have.
waiting for the call
I was just telling my husband a couple of days ago it seems like maybe HR is waiting until the very end of the year to tell us what our new rate and schedule will be so there is no time to look for a new job before the new year. Not a word about the merger in a few weeks, not a peep from HR.
Have you had call waiting disconnected? That will cause that.

Call Anthony at the office and let him know you are waiting or if you have sm
S. Cryer's email address, send an email to her and she will help you. She is the one who trained me. If this does not get deleted, it is scryer@softscript.com


I've called them and waiting for them to call me back. nm
 
Any current info on JLG? I took the test and am currently waiting interview call. nm

GIMT - finally, somewhere that I can call home!

thank you Mary and John, Katie, Cindy, Lana.  You all are so great, and I love it!   


Bet you know who this is.  No?  Take a guess, then.


                                       


I definitely want to work.. but not for them. I have found great place to call home where you get..
what you are promised as far as work, pay, and the communication is excellent. MDI-FL should take a few lessons from some of these other companies and you'd have more happy employees. There are far too many team leaders and management out there trying to save face for MDI..obviously.. The rave reviews are NOT from the MTs trying to work for a living.
Hmm...I could live quite well on 0.12 cents per line for doing nothing, but I might call it

You can call it greed, I call it feeling like
I am back in the 80s with the money I am pulling in. SS, retirement check and my paycheck, cha-ching. Not planning on taking it with me, never. Love to travel and have 4 places planned for this year. High maintenance lady here. Ta-Ta.
If you are having problems with your line counts, call Sheila. s
She really gave me a lot of suggestions on increasing my line counts since she knows most of the accounts realy well.
Mine works from home. I know many of them do. .nm
xx
I do believe the recruiter works at home.
Just like us, many recruiters work from their home and are still employees. Hope this helps.
You all have a point. I forget how this at-home thing works. I used to work in-house at a hospital.
and... we got paid extra for working holidays and even weekends and evenings. I am new to this at-home thing and it's pretty disappointing. I think I'm back to the hospital..
Call them......
Since the Warminster office is being absorbed into the Northeast Region, the only ones who can answer that question for you is the Warminster office itself. I've worked for them for years and have plenty of work - my accounts haven't gone anywhere.
Yes. I get what they call
a tiered incentive on my checks and then get quarterly bonuses to boot. I was quite impressed actually. I started at 8.75 cpl and can earn up to 2 cpl incentive plus the bonuses.

We got Labor day incentives too...$40 for the first 800 lines and $20 for every 400 lines after that.

It may all fall apart but right now I'm happy.

If you truly cannot call, perhaps
it is time to find work with another MTSO/company? That way when one is slow, you will have another as a backup? This is, of course, assuming you are an IC. If you are an employee having communications issues where you cannot even call your employer, I would start looking elsewhere.
I could call and say
I could call and say I I couldn't work that day if I was sick or if my daughter was sick, things like that, but I've never done that with the exception of a few weeks ago when my husband had open heart surgery and I ended up not working for 3 days.
I could call and say
But the point is I would never do that. I have to have a very good reason why I wouldn't work.
Why not just CALL them?
.
of course call
but I would take this as a warning: If they don't follow up *before* they actually hire you...
So should I call them? (nt)

I had a guy call me to tell me he was going to
his MTs are earning money, but he would not tell me his company name. I did not answer the phone. That really made me nervous. I will not be giving my # out again.
Call and ask.
x
When I tried to call...
I got the message about the number being disconnected, so I emailed and got called back from another number.
You can call them and ask.
nm
Really not sure, but I would just call them and ask.

Why not just call them?
If I get no work on an account, the first thing I do is call to make sure there is no technical reason for the lack of work. (like maybe I was fired? (locked out?) :))
I would call in and

talk to them.  There is certainly plenty of work and they don't want you to be unhappy.


 


I got the call too
I am concerned because this company does offshore and I looked at their website briefly and they are apparently looking to acquire more companies.
Definitely would call now!!
nm
Call them!!!
I was afraid to pester the company I tested with, too, but after waiting 8 days I called yesterday and got hired.  If you want the job, pursue it!
they call you once and then
you never hear from them again!
I did call...sm
I was told the hospital was low on work today. I agree about communication being horrible.
I just got a call from them....
Yes, Synthescribe showed up on my caller ID and they are all the same people!!!! Makes me wonder what is going on.....
Why not call
And ask them yourself?  Maybe you can switch to a shift they are advertising for, or you can get more work on another account.  Seems to me, that your supervisor would know better than anyone on this board.  I don't plan to work there, but that is what I would do if I were out of work and they were hiring...Just IMO. Otherwise, best to assume they have their reasons and if you don't want to call and ask, well I have no other advice except to say I don't see why you will get any answers here unless of course your question is rhetorical. Good luck whatever happens!
Do call them.
Carol Gilbert is such a nice person and though I have not worked for her I have had dealings with her over the years. She is terrific. I think you would be happy you did get in touch with the company. Good luck.
Call them
I left them a few months ago. I had my refund in about 10 days. If it's been 3 weeks, that's too long - something got snagged up. Call HR or your old supv and let them know the situation - they are excellent about that sort of thing.
Why don't you call them and ask them?
.
Please call them
Whoever answers the phone will either answer any questions or direct you to someone who can. They are very, very busy with new accounts coming on board but will not mind helping you at all.
Yes call them
I was an IC for a hospital for two tax years - the first year (while I was still working there) I had to go directly to the personnel office after numerous calls to my supervisor, and then tell them how much I made so they could type one up by hand!  The second year (after I moved out of state), I had to call the supe twice to get it.  I had the feeling that if I had never asked for a 1099 they never would have reported it to the IRS, but since I was a good do-bee and had paid in my taxes quarterly as I should, I needed that 1099 to get any of it back!
I had gotten a call from....
The Impact Center, and I haven't been with that company for months now.  Isn't communication grand?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I still get E-mail too....go figure!
Can't you call them?
This is a great example why it is so important to include a telephone number on your resume!!
What exactly do you call the 30
day lag then if not a waiting period?  If pay periods are 1-15th and 16th-30/31 and one starts working for you on July 18th, why would they not be paid on the paydate immediately following the 31st?  Why wait an additional 30 days?  Why would you not call this a waiting period? 
I would call them on it
if they told me to pound sand. I would go to the Labor Board, to the IRS and to my private counsel and sue them for wrongful termination. We can be other than victims and--like most bullies--if they are called on their stuff--the will likely back down, as well they should. It takes backbone to stand up for yourself but rememeber--you deserve the kind of treatmentyou will accept. Don't enable their bad behavior. You are quite likely stronger than you think, Good luck!
Call them!!! sm
I started on one of their accounts and it did not work for me due to time, schedule, etc....they found me another account.  They are very helpful, everyone I have spoken with so far.
I would call them on it
Tell them to take it out or you won't sign that contract and state your reasons why it is unacceptable to you.
I was on that call...SM
I was on that call and I listened very well.  They laid off however many MTs, permanently, with no call backs.  And while they did what they felt they had to and no one can fault them for that, and they also gave us fair warning, those who got laid off are now going to be faced with finding other work in a bad job market and bad economy.  These are people with mortgages, kids, single incomes, and they are now adrift.  It is not a good thing.  If you are still at Amphion, then you are one of the lucky ones and I wish you well.  I, however, did not turn out so lucky. 
I would CALL them.
