Ah, so! I don't "get" much around here! LOL
:D

To the "get a job" folks
Many of the jobs are for acute care MTs, I would say the majority are. Perhaps the OP is not an acute care MT. If you are not acute care your options seem to be limited.

now i "get" to pay to work for MQ - barfing while I saw this

Retirement is not coming fast enough.

Now I get to pay for faster internet, new programs, down time to learn new programs, either invest in a new computer or pay to lease their computer ($50/mo).....just to get to make less money while I try to learn their new system.

I have freakin lost my mind.

I thought it was bad enough that I never ever saw a raise while working for them. That should have been the big SIGN! but no....I stayed and now I get to do the ultimate slap in the face..........I get to pay Medquist to get to work for them.

A NEW LOW IN THE AMERICAN WORK PLACE.

sorry, "get" into bonus situation. nm

Wow, "get away with" - good gosh sm
please check your expectations! Every MT company in the world struggles with getting the right balance of MTs for their work volumes. You were there for a whopping 1 month a year ago and still sound bitter. Maybe errors were made when you were with Webmedx, but it doesn't mean this is a bad company for everyone, especially at this point in time!

YOU "get over it", however, makes you sound quite intelligent!
how DO you come up with these amazing comebacks?

ROFL

Say "Get Over It" to the auto workers and their families who are getting pink slips. sm

How do you think you would feel if you spent most of your adult life working for one of these companies promising you security if you stayed with them.
