before it is taken by those that can (and we/they know whom we mean).  I notice I can have a handful of manure in my queue & it'll stay there until tomorrow.  But a good, easy jobs hops in - it's gone in a flash.  The Leads claim they have the right to do this JUST BECAUSE THEY CAN.  But how fair is it that they have the power to completely control our work flow - pick the best for themselves.  Don't forget, they're also SALARIED on top of what they can scrounge off the MTs, who aren't. 

The last few times my queue jobs suddenly went poof - I confronted the party involved but was given all kinds of lame excuses. (I also cc'd mgmt with the e-mail, as if that made any difference.)  There's one that's especially vicious in doing that. Her new ploy is (we're usually assigned about 3 jobs in our queue - so when I find 4 -  well, that last one was put there so I wouldn't notice her taking out another one I already had & planned on next.  BECAUSE I'M SO DUMB & SHE'S SO SMART! RIGHT?  This is maybe my biggest peeve with this co.  Even at the Q- I always made my lines in less time - 1 job popped up at a time - automatically.  Nobody to do reverse, electronic cherrypicking to her own greedy advantage. But these evil beaches know they're in the cat's seat, that they've got it made. 

and production along with working what are for a lot of people unpopular shifts should not be making up for not being paid for headers/footers if the MT is doing the work to get that information.

A bonus paid for other things (not sending to QA, working midnights or reaching very high line counts while doing the other 2 things) should not be replacing pay lost, it should be IN ADDITION.

I am assuming (and we all know what happens when we assume) that this is because so many of the MQ people are out looking to change jobs that the companies feel like they don't have to work so hard to attract people. 

incentives, beach parties,  and whatever else is going on at Transcend/MDI are only for their favorites.  The only way we know about them is a message with the backlogs saying what a great incentive party they had the day before. 

If they are going to reward their pets they need to keep it hush-hush when talking about it after the fact.   So much for MT appreciation - a broken coffee cup and a calendar and a hint that you are not good enough to participate in their fun things.   

I guess it is because of so many new MT's coming and going.

look at the post below this string by TT2.

As far as the mixed messages you are getting on whether it is a good place to work, I think that if you know what you're doing (I mean really know and not just think you have XX years' experience and so that means you are great) you would have a good time working for this company.

If you have really limited experience as far as types of dictators/type of work and can't do ESL, it isn't the place for you.
