regarding MQ wanting e-mail from supervisors, etc. Why? Who cares what supervisors want?
It's like little kids wanting recognition from their parents. These supervisors for the most part are anonymous. Who really cares about e-mails from them unless they are offering more money or a bonus? There is nothing else I care to hear from them. I do my work with or without them. I figure everytime I get a supervisor e-mail, I am paying for it with my time and I am also paying that supervisor to state the obvious, either the account is behind or caught up. Really, I am paying the supervisor's salary.
New supervisors at MQ
I had an email from my new supervisor asking me to call her at my convenience. I did, we talked 20 minutes or so. I was surprised. This has happened in a long time, but I personally haven't had changes in supervisors for a while now.
new supervisors at MQ
Thank you! That's EXACTLY what I meant! A group mailing! It's not like I want the woman to show up at my front door with a dozen roses! BTW, what's ASR?
Supervisors
I know my job very well and the supervisors are coming to me for the correct information. The only time you see them is when they can't figure it out or to let you know they are still the boss.
supervisors say they do not know
either, are waiting just like the rest of us
Does anyone have personable MQ supervisors, or are they
It would be nice to have a supervisor I know a little bit about, but she just sends out job number updates and asks for extra help when we get close to out of turnaround. When I do call for a question or something, her attitude is more or less "just get off the phone and get work done" and I just have no idea who she is. Its scary knowing someone like that is in charge, someone who does not want to take the time to go over whatever problem you have and listen, its like we're disposable or something. Used to be different before we all got dispersed by region, my main office I could call and chit chat and get favors and it wasn't all about me working my butt off for them, but give and take so both parties are happy. I don't know, its just getting weird. 
Wow. Is this from your immediate supervisors or from the higher ups/HR, etc.? Are you being

Get rid of superfluous supervisors.

Good for you. Even though supervisors and/or
they DO NOT because there is a click among them. If an MT is let go from hospital A and applies to hospital B (in the same state/area) you better believe that A and B supervisors are "girlfriends." I personally am waiting to run into my old supervisor (hopefully with her husband or grown kids) so I can find out if she is still cheating on her husband. Payback is a B**** and she was nothing but a W***E.
Yep. You're right about the supervisors.
supervisor in all that time, Bernadette. Loved her. The last one was so horrible I told her ass off and got fired. Pffffttttt.
there are a lot of really good supervisors, too...sorry to generalize (nm)

Your are right. All from India. Supervisors communicate via IM.
Communication is difficult at best. Pay is penalized for anything below 98%, which would be fine if your QA work was not done by people in India. You can only imagine what your checks look like. Not pretty.
Hateful notes from supervisors
Some of these supervisors and MTSOs must be the most unhappy people in the world and must hate themselves. No way a normal person could send out horrible hateful notes to their staff. Wish they would get some professional help, just for their own sake.
What traits do successful supervisors have?
I want to know what I can do to become the best supervisor possible. Personally, I have had only one great supervisor in all my years and what I found is that she displayed, fairness, objectivity, a sense of humor, consistency. Can you tell me what your idea of the perfect supervisor is?
You have no idea what the other MTs behave like! The supervisors have learned thru
experience by your fellow nut-case MTs to stay away - leave them alone. Seriously, you would be amazed, absolutely AMAZED, at the rash of hate emails that would be generated back if some poor supervisor tried to be pleasant and dropped all MTs a Hello note! Its SICK, but true. I can totally relate, and am too afraid to contact anyone. Even MTs who seem friendly - they'll thank you for introducing yourself, and turn right around and rip you to a superior for harassment. ITS UNREAL OUT THERE!! If I were you, I would really take the high road and just send your new supe an email and introduce yourself!! He/she would probably really be touched. Again, nothing personal - no, you don't want them on your doorstep, but I assure you, there is a reason you're not getting any introductory emails! Its called the MTs have set the stage for this by their freakish behavior en masse in the past!
supervisors have a couple hundred mt's to "worry about"? please!
if they are smart enough to be a supervisor (?!?) how come they aren't smart enough to send a group e-mail?
based on posts below regarding supervisors not e-mailing, etc
 does anyone know what a work at-home supervisor's job duties area and what salary they are paid. looking for a supervisory job so i can quit the grind of transcribing but need to know more about duties and pay.
Where's all our supervisors on this question who have to work extra to keep
accounts within turn around time. what happens when account falls out and you can't keep it up by yourself?
Lots of supervisors responded to posts below.
Why not? They would learn a lot.
First, I doubt very much that lots of supervisors posted below. Please!
Yeah, an anonymous message board so they are a supervisor if they say so, just as I say I'm an editor. Supervisors do what they are TOLD to do by their bosses. Period. Any company - any industry - any planet. Oh, yeah, a supervisor is gonna read here that a grand total of 2 anonymous MTs from unknown companies want to get friendly introductory emails. This supervisor is gonna learn from this and go to his/her boss and say she should send friendly emails causing whining anonymous posters on MTStars said they want it? You are too funny! And if you a supervisor who would do this, I guarantee you won't be one for long!! You'll be back down at the bottom of the food chain, probably at a new company, wondering why your new supervisor isn't sending you a friendly email!! And would the supervisor who read that 2 Mts wanted to hear from their supervisor also ignore that the masses then flamed supervisors and said they NEVER wanted to hear from their supes? The only thing a supervisor would glean from this board is how the fish in the bottom of the pond fight and bite and eat each other! No one with an half ounce of intelligence in a supervisory position is gonna come here for YOUR help! Now that is funny!! This board has a reputation for being the lowest of the low in the world of MT boards. Don't flatter yourselves!
Has talking to the supervisors not helped up there. What are they thinking.
:
Consider yourself lucky to have supervisors who are fair minded.
dd
how about supervisors who facilitate the cherry picking...
I HATE IT! So unfair.
so lots of MTs are liars and supervisors are superstars who do not appear on MTStars.
Whatever.
even supervisors fall prey to the clics and clans--sm
the others think they are buttering up her good side, to get what they think they want and trying to make others look bad. That happens even on this board, as I had said earlier, before my post was removed. Supervisors fall on one side of the fence or the other, just as well as lay people. Personally, I wouldn't trust any of them. Just do your job and turn a deaf ear and blind eye to all the office politics. Things will be better down the road. Trust in that. Good luck to you.
the work first goes to the supervisors (if they have to type too) and they pick the best. Then filt
If I work during the day I get junk dictation, if I get on later or after midnight the work is normal. These people you call "leads" have to type too and are at an advantage to get the best dictation. I guess they feel this is a bennie. They can't see our face so what do they care, we are like a number in Auschitz to them.
You read my post ABSOLUTELY correct. Supervisors don't need my appreciation nor
do I need their's. We all just want to get paid if you are honest. I don't have time to worry if I am appreciated by MQ. I just want them to pay me for an honest day's work. I guess that shows they like me, they really, really like me. Talk is cheap. I get it all the time from MQ CEO/management, how much I am appreciated. I just want to paid for my time and don't want to hear all the talk. I mean who really cares. So if they appreciate me and don't pay me for my efforts, what do I do with this "appreciation"? Bank it?
Supervisors are a token figure-head for the weak-minded
who need guidance and approval. Why would anyone keep anybody who needed constant help on doing their job employed. I know my job and what is required. No one at this point in time can really advise me on what to do although as NEW supervisors come and go, they do give it a shot in order to justify their jobs. But they come and go and I stay. Buy a clue.
I have heard so many people rationalize cherrypicking and seen too many supervisors not deal with i
It's a scourge on this profession ... like the folks who gratefully accept absurdly dreadful line rates because -- "it's better than nothing"
It's why we're all making LESS than we did 10 years ago, 15 years ago ... made worse because that's even without adjusting for inflation ...
Supervisors aren't reachable through anonymous message boards. You have to actually write them or
call them at work.
Check at a local nursery/garden center for varieties that are bred for your area, then check online

had a similar issue with TWC and they had done some upgrades and the modem I had was no longer compatible. The tech knew what the problem was the minute he saw the modem, only it took me about 3 months and threatening to cancel for them to get out here.
No brainer here. Stop payment on first check before you issue 2nd check.

I have had a check bounce over a boo-boo in the check book...NOT A DEADBEAT!!

DID you check with Social Security& does your son receive a check???
Go to SSA.gov and research the payee options. You may have to use the search engine, but your answer to this particular issue should be there.
I am disabled and while my kids were minors, I had to fill out a form each year on how I, as the payee spent each and every penny of the money they received. I don't see how his mother can justify how she spent his money for things that you normally would pay.
That said, he is getting Social Security right? Is your son receiving a dependent check? Under law, if a parent is disabled and has minor children, each and every one of those children also receive a check until they turn 18 or graduate from high school, which ever comes first.
The check is a percentage of your husbands, so for 800.00, your son should receive at least 350.00. If you have not been getting this, they would pro-rate it back to when your husbands disability started and that in itself, could solve a lot of your financial problems. You can also find this out on their website, HTH
no - don't check out wildblue. check out hughesnet. sm
i was on wildblue. i absolutely HATED it. i paid $400 for install and equipment and bill was $51.51 a month for smallest plan. no bills, had to be direct debit from credit card or bank. wasn't a lot faster than dial up and i frequently went over my download limit so i had to upgrade to the $80/mo plan. speed was no faster on their "fastest plan". they had a 1-yr contract and only 1-yr warranty. well 20 days (kid you not) out of warranty my tria (the eye on the dish) went out and it cost me a total of $275 for replacement and tech call (had to wait a week and a half before tech could come and then he no showed and rescheduled for the next day stating he didn't have the equipment he needed to fix me and the repair order had been in for over a week by that time. no call to say he wasn't coming either, just no showed). they TRIED to sell me the entire package all over again to get me locked into another 1-yr contract and i declined. it was best in their book so your warranty and equipment would be "new". i had to tell them for 5 months to change which credit card to debit from, never could get it right. had to tell them for 3 months when my phone number changed. i could not wait until the day my 1-yr contract was over. have heard really good things about hughesnet. i think it is a tad more a month, but supposedly a lot faster than wildblue and not near as many problems from what i have heard from others. wildblue was down for an entire week at one point throughout the year i was on it. always got lost signals and page cannot be found multiple, multiple times throughout the day. i used wildblue with VPN (with transtech) and could not keep a connection enough to get a decent line count as i was dropping signals too much and it did slow it way down. i finally got clinic work rather than acute care where time and speed wasn't a factor. research message boards for complaints about wildblue and hughesnet before deciding. also hughesnet i think told me a 2-yr warranty rather than only the 1-yr with wildblue.
Check the classified board here and check
E-bay. Some companies will provide them for free or a small rental fee.
check
your dictionary or autocorrect and see if it is set to capitalize the first letter in a sentence.
i think it is just that, though, an annoyance.
Thank you! Will check them out now.
:O
My check was for over $400, but certainly does not
come close to the money I have lost since going on docqscribe. I think corporate should provide us with the statistics they used to arrive and this amount. The @#$#@ crooks!
Thanks, I will check that out. You would
think that would be illegal (to pay for one line count and bill for another) so they would be a little more discreet......
Check for DQS
Wonder if the discrepancy in pay on DQS is MQ wide or just certain regional offices cause I havent gotten anything yet and I dread having to contact my TC. Does anyone know?
Why did you get a check$?
and nobody told us?

MQ DEP check ?
Anyone heard from their MQ office what this check amount was based on and why it wasn't direct deposit like others if you are on direct deposit??
MQ DEP check
reason it wasn't DD, my opinion, is that if we cash it, we are "settling" any past underpayments. It has to do with the lawsuit. I my check yesterday, and I will deposit it probably. By my cashing it, I did not sign or agree to anything and the letter doesn't state anything about dismissing them from any further legal action. I think they sent the checks to make them look good, like they are trying to be honest and forthright about the discrepancies. A little late...
What check?
I have been with MQ for 14 years and I never got this check, is it for everyone?
check
emailed payroll and asked for a detailed printout of how this figure was derived and she said that corporate told her that it would take probably 2-3 weeks (you and I both know it's probably more like 2-3 months). we have a right to know how it was gotten and if I were you I'd do the same so that they know that we're just not a bunch of dummies who just take what they give us without an explanation that will satisfy us.
MQ check
I only glanced at the letter that came with the check but it said something about the DQS counting making mistakes and they were "sorry for any inconvenience this caused." Not a word about there never being enough WORK to matter whether the counting was right or not. Prior to DQS in 7 years I NEVER ran out of work. Didn't hang around long enough to see if their promises were true that we would soon be making so much money that we couldn't spend it all. LOL
check
"legally" any company has the right to withhold payment for 30 days. I found that out by accident, as well. ... through a company also in California. I would suggest, after attempting a telephone conversation first, that you speak with a lawyer and begin litigation. You are owed what you did work for. Good luck to you.
