i would call at the high ups every night after midnight to request you be taken off their employee l
keep calling each of them every night after midnight as they do to you until you finally make someone upset enough that they see to it that you are removed from ALL their lists. or you could block their # and do the spam for emails as the other poster said.
I work 2nd shift, and I ran out last night -- never has happened on a Sunday. nm
The post was made on a Sunday night -- no one in the office really to ask then. sm
And it seemed a harmless question. He/she wasn't really asking a policy question ... just a general question regarding when the payday is. Most companies that I have worked for, if the payday is over a weekend, they pay on Friday. Unfortunately, that is not the case here, but at least they are upfront about it, and it says so in the paperwork somewhere.
turn your phone ringer off at 10 pm every night
why should YOU lose sleep because of their ineptitude? Either that, or get an air horn and keep it close to your phone. Get the call, let them have it hahaha!
If pipe burstin in middle of night,turn off water to pipe

It means midnight.

They had an ad out for a midnight shift editor

Mine has been in the bank midnight Friday and
I have promised to pay some bills Saturday morning! I sure hope that I don't get into trouble over this. I know they say we don't get paid til Monday, but if the money has always been there before, why should we assume different! I will be in some real trouble if the money is not in the bank midnight tonight. The bills don't wait til the weekend is over the money is due now. Why would they not communicate a problem with us? Before I have a fit, I am going to assume it will be there. Why assume the worst if they did not say anything right? (she asks nervously).
The memo is 7 am to midnight. So for third shift no coverage on pager.
And for the weekend, no paging really unless their system is down, not ours. Actually, that's less stressful because if we are down we just e mail and forget about it. Of course downtime would help that is paid downtime.
This e mail does not bug me. But, I do have to say I have become increasingly depressed over this job lately and I am not usually this way. I have a feeling I am not alone in my depressed feeling, I just wish I knew why I felt this way. Things looked so good 2 weeks ago... I agree with the aarrg above. Double arrgg for me to.
Sent it Sunday (by fax) then (sm)
immediately got e-mail asking to fill out questionnaire, did that on Sunday too..then haven't heard, am I just not patient enough? Thanks! I really want to talk with them, but don't want to bug them either. Thanks for the info!
She was my coordinator....She was there as of Sunday...
thanking us all for the hard work with TAT! I had my last day thank goodness, my head was spinning from the revolving door of ACs, TLs, etc!
It is Sunday, my brain's day off.

Sunday and Monday
I'm not on the schedule with any of them on Sunday, Monday I only work for one of them. I took the third job because it's a specialty I like and want to do more of. I'm trying to decide which direction to go in - certainly don't want to work this much indefinitely.
I don't care if it is 3 am Sunday morning, get up and
Okay, if i tested with a company Sunday and..
I have not heard anything as of yet, am I safe to assume that they don't want me on their team? This is a company that runs ads just about every week. However, I have not seen an ad this week yet.
VR - next month starts Sunday
VR is a reality beginning Sunday. It is no longer a rumor.
Since yesterday was Sunday, DD would have gone through this morning
If payday falls on a weekend or a holiday, then direct deposit will go through the next business day. Mine was in my bank account last night around midnight.
I work both Saturday and Sunday...
every single weekend. I have for many years. I have 1 child at home. How do I do it? I just do it. I do a lot of things in life that aren't easy, but I get by. I knew when I became an MT that I was entering the medical field, which does, contrary to what some people may believe, operate on a 24/7/365 schedule in most instances. People do get sick/injured on weekends. If you aren't satisfied with working weekends, your best bet is to find clinic work. Then, your only complaint may be the pay, which is generally lower than acute care because the work is considered easier. Oh, well, I guess you can't win.
Current payperiod ends this Sunday 8/26...sm
Payday is 9/3 (but believe that is the holiday so not sure how that works). Pay is every other week on Mondays, so the following PP will be paid on 9/17. PPs run Mon-Sun. HTH
I received the test files Sunday
The dictator is extremely fast and mumbles. Not worth it in my opinion. I emailed her back and politely declined after listening to the files.
under new hire plan, Saturday/Sunday all day, 1cent more
nm
Just the right amount here...sm
I get the hours I am scheduled for. I've been there a few months now. Going fine. Off of OT finally but not running out.
Where do you turn if you have went
to your supervisor and even one step above to her supervisor and still get the same BS - what then? I have begged and pleaded for over a year to be taken off the account I am on now and be placed back on my orginal account. In one ear and out the other. I had no problem with them either until they put me on this account "only to help out." With all the office closing it is like talking to some secret agent when you try talking to a supervisor - you get NO WHERE.
I'm sorry to show my ignorance, but where is SL?
I am very glad that you are happy and I do hope that it stays that way for you. I used to feel the same way. I never had a problem with communicating until all this closing office stuff started. I think as a long time employee I do have a right to know what is going on, but that is just me.
My turn
I returned to KS 3 months ago after leaving and going back to MQ. Talk about a company in trouble? MQ should go into the Guiness Book. I am back with KS and happy as can be. KS will continue to grow because the owner is honest and sincere. I know because of how she has helped me personally with several issues. So, for those who bash KS, ignore them please. There is no perfect MT company in this country and there never will be. For me, KS is home for good. For others, it just may have not been in the cards.
you then turn off the TV - get over yourself...nm

Turn it down!
How many hours a day will you need to work in order to make good money??!! Let them edit their own work for peanuts. I can make more transcribing than sifting through garbage dictations from not-so-great MTs.
I would turn them in for sure! Nothing OSi does
would surprise me. I quit working for them because of all the phone calls to work on my day off, etc. That company is so unprofessional and unorganized. 
Enough to turn me off, too! nm

Why would they turn on her? Because most likely, she's one that
Like these ads that state Must have at least 20 years of experience, no exceptions, must work well independently, must be dependable, must know our software inside and out, and must be able to produce 1500 lines a day (... and oh, yeah, pay is 7 cpl). Sorry, but any self-respecting person would take a job that pays more for the same amount of work! That's a given. This MTSO says she does the same - finds the MTs that will do the same amount of work for less pay and grabs them. Absolutely no difference. It works both ways, show some loyalty and respect and you'll receive that in return. Something tells me if she found an MT willing to work for an even lower rate than the ones she has now, she'd dump her current MTs in a heartbeat so she could rack up more money in her piggy bank. Pathetic. All that said, I don't even believe a word she says. Smells like a troll to me.
Yes, I turn one in.
I have worked for other companies on Bayscribe where I have not been required to turn in a line count, but Oracle does request you turn one in. It really is no big deal.
You do not have to turn one in and you will
Since you are IC, they want to cover THEIR bases with the IRS by saying you have invoiced them, when in reality, they couldn't care less about your invoice; they pay you what they get on line count, not what you come up with.....
Of course, that is completely illegal but it is done anyway. according to IRS guidelines, as an IC you determine pay rate and YOU invoice them for the amt owed you, but they are not following that. Like I said, they are just trying to cover themselves in case someone said anything but on the other hand, wage and hour would definitely be interested in their practices as well as the IRS.
Many do this, however....
Did you turn them down?
After your schooling (as it sounds like you got a job elsewhere).
If so, was it a cpl issue?
Thanks for any further info.
Could you disclose the amount....sm
you were paid? How long ago was this that you didn't have enough work? Also, were you full or part time and what were your report total requirements per pay period? TIA
For ANY amount of money
nm
Not only do they pay late, the amount of the
checks are incorrect and it takes forever to resolve the issue with accounting. I even talked with the owner of the company a couple of times because of incorrect and/or late paychecks. Nothing ever changed, so I left. Beware!
The amount of tax you withhold should
be what tax bracket you are in. If you are in the 15% bracket only hold back 15%.
There are pros and cons on both sides. You just have to find the fit that works for you.
Sorry, but would not put up with that crap for any amount of $$$
nm
Well that's a decent amount of $
NOT to walk away from. Depending on how much you need it though I would still consider not taking it... and not signing.
Then you are completely free to do anything u want without any worry.
If you need the money, however, you appear to have little risk with this contract being prevailed upon in court.
I'd say you don't really need to 'panic' anymore - :) you'll be OK with either choice.
Good luck.
I also just registered the amount of
$1K to $3K is not worth it to give up your career. Forget about it! File for unemployment, which I'm sure you did, and hang in there for a few weeks until you get your first check. But to sell out your potential future career for a few grand? No way! And its still something I would not want to mess with in a million years, as there is a lot of -- stuff -- going on with your ex-company, accounts/clients, etc.
Maybe someone who knows a fair amount about
x
It is a taxable amount.
nm
What amount are you talking
about?
You got a reasonable amount sm
from what I've seen for raises - a full half-cent would be great, but it's hard to give that to deserving MTs when companies can't get hospitals or clients to pay more.
I definitely have sympathy but I'm afraid that you were lucky to get anything at all, unfortunately. I wouldn't feel insulted - I'd be grateful that they were even able to grant a small raise in these tough economic times.
I'd advise you to try again when the economy picks up.
Not that the amount isn't an insult or anything, but
the fact that you got anything more at ALL is pretty unusual, with the current state of affairs in MT. Wages have been steadily declining over the past 10-15 years, and many of us have been getting even further pay cuts recently.
I hear ya on the amount, though. .09 cpl might have been good in 1980, but this is 2009. Although lately, it feels more like 1930.
LOL!!! Okay - here's my posting - your turn!
HIlarious in a sick control freak kinda way!
:)
Thanks for the advice, now it's my turn...
I understand exactly what you are saying and I agree with you.
Please let me share my experience from an MTs point of view. After submitting my resume, then passing the tests (no ESLs), interviewing via phone and lastly being hired, I was very excited to start with a national company. Everything was going fine. Then I started making line count. Eventually my line count took me up to bonus level. Then all of a sudden POW - I'm nailed with 10 other doctors from the same account that I never knew existed. Where were those doctors when I was first put on the account? Now, I make $11 an hour in a profession I have been doing for 8 years. Your getting those replies because all the good MTs (like myself) are finding employment outside of this profession. You may not offshore now but you will because all the good MTs are getting fed up with this crap! If you think 8 to 10 is a good salary, then you type the reports. Better yet, just type the ESLs! 
I had to turn down an MTSO for this. No way would I
nm
Don't forget to turn them in to the IRS! nm

This is when you turn over specific
examples to your supervisor and get some answers. I would keep a record of every inconsistency and send them in.
