a very much appreciated gift certificate, but guess Transcend is too cheap to allow that for MDI

Our gift card and Christmas card were appreciated.. Check this out......
I have only worked for MDI a few months, but I can tell you they appreciate their MTs. Compared to the doctor I have worked for 9 years for and whom USED to give me a $1000 bonus, but this  year.. NOTHING.. I had been working both jobs, but that made me decide to tell the doctor to take a hike and devote all my time to MDI.. where I'm appreciated...
I received a Christmas card and a gift card 2

I appreciated the Christmas card and gift card..
I don't feel that the MDI/Transcend plays favorites at Christmas. I appreciated the thoughtfulness of the signed Christmas card and gift card. Also, I work the holidays when someone on my team wants the day off. This is a good company to work for. I agree with the above posts--if you're not happy, there are other companies who may suit you better. Happy Holidays to all! 
UPDATE: CARD AND GIFT CARD ARRIVED TODAY FROM TRANSCEND. USPS STINKS...
It tooks what looks like over 2 weeks to get there. It could have been shipped to a third world country is that much time. Shame on USPS. I guess you get what you pay for..even at 41 cents.Yikes. Sorry to my employer.
Transcend always sends a nice handwritten card and a gift card
I just got my card today, and it is still five days before Christmas.
You really cannot please all the people all of the time, even when it comes to gift giving. I am so surprised at some of these comments.
Merry Christmas to all!
Christmas card
Thinking back over the years we used to get a corporate card but now I think we only get a card if our supervisor and/or manager decide to remember us, some do and some don't. Since I have had about 6 supers this year, I doubt it. Once I got a $5.00 gift certificate for Starbucks from my super, that was nice but the nearest Starbucks is 50 miles away as I live in South Georgia boondocks. Seeing that I haven't even had a cost of living raise with MQ for 7 years, I don't look for a CHRISTMAS BONUS!!!!! Do you work for MQ? Hope you get one if you don't.....
Christmas bonus/card? Did anyone get anything this year?
I know there is still time but usually we get a card by now.
Acusis - Anybody get a Christmas bonus, card, etc.?

Nice Christmas card and $100 bonus.
I didn't get a Christmas bonus or even a card
glad to see how much we are appreciated by our company.
Did anyone get a Christmas card this year from QT? I thought it was an oversight. nm

I got a gift card from Transcend!
I am very happy about thank and thankful for a great job!
Transcend gift card
I got my gift card from Transcend today too. Its not a ton of money but every year they send us one. It is nice to be remembered.
Nothing from Transcend, although I heard others got gift cards or at least a card. I've worked th
several years so if it was just a case of being forgotten that is still pretty pathetic. How do you forget your employees, especially when you get junk bulk mail from there regarding nothing that involves you..but at Christmas you were forgotten. Oh well, I have work and for that I am grateful so I'll be nice...
Merry Christmas to you too! I think it is great that Transcend sends out gift cards to employees.
I wonder how many other companies do that. Let's see, with over 1000 transcriptionists that is 25,000.
Again, thank you Transcend!
Transcend pays 3 cents per line on holidays, plus sends a handwritten card to all
employees. I have worked for many companies and I have never seen a company that cares as much as Transcend.
E-mail me if you'd like more information.
I got a card and a gift card They are always very good
to us. Transcend has nothing to do with it.
Got a card but no bonus or gift card.

Christmas morning here and not even a Merry Christmas

Christmas
Heard on the new last night that Coca-Cola will not be using Santa's image this year on any of their Christmas products. They will use a picture of a polar bear instead.
Got a card
I got a card last week. Don't know if that is all we are getting or not. WIll know when I get my paycheck.
NO ID or SS card
Only if you are an IC.. If you are NOT an employee, they do NOT need it. They send you a 1099.
That's what the SS card is for!! And your sm
driver's license will verify your signatures and name.
Read up on it at SSA online.
Nothing for Christmas
The company I have worked for for almost 2 yrs send me a $20 thing of candy. The other company I got nothing, not even a Merry Christmas.
I got a card from them. nm

LOL. It's not the same card. I kept the last three. sm
I know that a few years ago, they stopped sending gifts because no matter what they did, someone would complain. I like the cards and get paid well. I would rather make good money year round than lousy money plus a $25 gift!
If Only...What I wish for this Christmas.
Reading posts below how so many MTs just wish or hope that they may get some sort of recognition - a bonus or a gift or anything for their hard work for the year. I cannot say how angry I am - steaming mad - to read the derogatory posters who call these hopeful or disappointment MTs childish or greedy. Its so heartbreaking. American workers for decades regularly received Christmas bonuses in every single industry, period. We all did. Our parents did and our grandparents did. If they didn't, that probably meant they were the bosses or business owners, and they happily were the ones giving out the bonuses or gifts to their beloved workers. THIS IS SICK that other MTs can bash those who still have hope, or those who desperately need the $$, anything. A lowsy $25 gift card might feed their kids for a day. Yet its A-OK in our country that the CEOS and our OWN BOSSES get 6 and 7-figure Christmas bonuses every year, whether they run our companies into the ditch or not. They aren't called greedy or childish. We continue to work ourselves to the point of breaking 24/7, and darn sure do have the right to hold out the most meager of hopes that yes, MTs, there is a Santa Claus, he does care, and maybe we might get a $25 token of appreciation from our employers, who are darn tootin' making a boat load of greenbacks thanks to our labors. Merry Christmas, and I wish if I were rich that I could find a list of all US MTs and send each and every one, newby or seasoned pro, a $25 gift card and a Christmas card. I truly wish I could do that. Maybe someday I will. Don't be ashamed to hope for a present - good grief we get nothing else, nothing.
Christmas
It is coming....already spent mind....
No X-mas card -- nothing...sm
You know last year was my first year with this company. I was surprised when I got a $50 bonus for X-mas last year. This year I wasn't really expecting a bonus because of the economy and all. I did, however, think they would have at least sent a X-mas card. No card. No nothing. No email stating happy holidays. Absolutely nothing. I thought it was a little inconsiderate of them. I wasn't expecting money. I just thought they would send some type of holiday wish.
I got a card
I wasn't one of the ones complaining, but I did get a nice card from my employer. I don't expect anything from my bosses. When I do get something I am appreciative. The only thing I actually demand and expect from them is the appropriate paycheck on payday.
card
I received a beautiful card also from the owner of the company that I work PT for. I also work PT for a local store, only working one day a week, and received $100 bonus- which I was totally not expecting and was very grateful for! It is nice to receive a card just to let you know how much you are appreciated! Thanks AF!!!
Are you allowed to say Christmas?
Pretty soon, everything is becoming so politically correct, we won't be allowed to use the word Christmas anymore. Maybe they were insulted - you should have sent a holiday card instead.
But, no - I don't think I've seen a Christmas card or bonus in years. Boy, in the good old days at MQ, a few years back, we actually used to have Christmas parties - imagine that!
CHRISTMAS IS AMERICAN
When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Majority rules here in America. MOST people celebrate Christmas in this country. If I were in a Japanese country I would expect to see oriental things all over the place and if I were in Israel, I would expect to see Hannukah all over. What is wrong with people? The world has gone totally nuts.
Maybe it's a Christmas gift
in appreciation of a year of hard work. Does Amphion ever send Christmas gifts to MTs? If so, why gripe?
Merry Christmas to you, too!

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to all.
Once again, I'll say that I believe no card is due to the sm
new, stupid, law that disallows wishing people a Merry Christmas. I haven't received my usual card from the other company I work for, either. This brings me to what I think is an accurate conclusion--we can blame the lawmakers for their new ridiculous law.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY. HAPPY HANUKKAH. HAPPY KWANZA.
So, put me in jail, already, lawmakers.
I always get a card and for other reasons other than
work reasons, not even gotten that one yet.
Christmas Gift
Those morons sent me chocolates for Christmas. Unfortunatley my son was here to accept delivery. I would have sent it back. I'd much rather have my PAY!!! They have the nerve to have BONUS pay in their ad for new MTs when they can't even pay the ones that are working there now. I was on their payroll, so it had nothing to do with IC invoicing. I think they guesstimate at lines because they are never close to what I have actually typed. Glad I'm done with them!
Christmas Gift?
My gift was an email from the company wishing me a Merry Christmas and then they sent out emails Christmas Eve and Christmas day asking MTs to log in and work some;-)
What about all the credit card
numbers you give them when you order something?
Last year, I tried to order a Dell keyboard. I must have wound up on the phone with someone from India, and before I could give her my credit card number, she insisted on knowing whether it was a personal or business account.
At that point, I told her I didn't feel comfortable giving my information to her, and I hung up. I will never order anything from Dell again because of this. In fact, I've limited my on-line, over-the-phone purchases since this happened.
I agree with you that we should boycott, but maybe we shouldn't limit it to the healthcare industry. 
Futurenet sent a card..nm

Christmas present
I also received a nice present from mine this week,as well as nice thank you gift at Thanksgiving! I've never received a single, solitary thing from any other company that I've worked for before. I feel appreciated.
I think a gift card (sm)
Wal*Mart, Amazon.com, something like that. It's the thought that counts. It's nice to feel appreciated!
Now THAT is what the spirit of Christmas is all about. (sm)
When I worked in house at a local hospital we used to adopt a family each year and had a blast doing it. We were a large department and would provide food for the holiday meals and all the Christmas gifts. One year we took my little truck with the camper and literally had it filled with boxes of food and presents. One lady in our department is of a religion that didn't believe in Christmas, but wow, did this lady come forward with food products for the family. One year the mother of the family we adopted even sent us pictures of Chrismas morning. That was truly a heart warmer too.
Merry Christmas

Thankful at CHRISTMAS
I want to thank my company Transform for always have lots of work, great pay, great people and just a great place to work. I am not bragging either, I am THANKFUL and would like others to know that there are companies out there who actually do what they say, pay well, and treat their people nice. It's a shame that some others on this board will not allow us to post on the COMPANY BOARD about our COMPANIES.
CHRISTMAS BONUS
I have from a private account.
I get $100 gift card from my doc plus
a wonderful card thanking me for all the hard work I do all year round, and my company sends a $25 gift check.
I got an e-mail Christmas Day
It says Merry Christmas, work is behind and overtime is approved!
