I'm sure this will get me booted, but you are a flaming moron, my dear,

How is it you know for sure this "greedy" MT is "him"?  What I mean is, how do you know specifically who THE person is?  Does your system allow you to see who is on at the same time you do?  If not, has that information been given to you by someone in the company?

Again, I'm not flaming.  I'm just wondering how you know to place blame on a particular person.

see another MTs line counts and the job #s that they have done, and how they skip many, many reports, when the work was sent and how the job #s went for each job type, you then KNOW when someone is cherrypicking!!!  It is also great that you are able to go into the system and check out the job #s she DID and know that they were the best of the best dictators!!  Believe me, it does make a huge difference to those of us who do not cherry pick.  The account I work on is relatively small and only 5 or 6 MTs working on the account.  When the cherry picker has her two days off, I really, really make great line counts.  The rest of the week is a real struggle.  I say keep showing the other MTs work. 

This is definitely not someone's hallucination; it is a reality and happens all the time.  Once an MT gets all the proof she needs, then it is only common sense that she should go to the supervisor to point it out and the situation should be corrected.  What I try to do, at times, is go on very early in the morning, around 2:00 AM; do all the "crap" that she left for me plus then be able to get some of the good guys.  There have been times where I've been tempted to skip the bad just like her and leave her the bad!!  However, then I feel guilty!!  Cherry pickers need to be ousted from MT work.  Do the job that comes up and be happy about it!!

Much work!  I would like to add ADHD has nothing to do with intelligence and autistics would never be able to speak out a story as you have detailed, or plan a revenge, especially weeks ahead.  Her previous environment and genes I think win the cause of her behavior, and sociopath does comes to mind, seriously, and children do and are maturing much earlier now-a-days. . .especially females.

You don't know what I know, who I am, what I have experienced, and how I got to where I am today. So, don't tell me what I know or don't know.

Save your excuses for Oprah!!!

It's those causes that keep these people in the whole that they pass down from generation to generation. They need to do what Montel Williams said:  "Pick yourself up by your boot straps."

Let me leave it at that, before I say something I'll regret.

First off, my prayers go out to this family!  You see a lot of this type of behavior in foster kids, who have seen way to much in their young lives and have been effected to no end.

I wonder if they should not try to place Tater in an inpatient Children's psych unit for a week, to get a total comprehensive work up?  They may have a wider base of specialist who can pinpoint, diagnosis then treat Tater along with her family, more so than the psychologist.

Just a thought.

Those of us who have been in the business for a very long time know all of the sweat and hard work it took us to get here, and we know that yours will not be an easy road, nor will it be a very accomplished one if you plan to work at home.  Hospital- or clinic-based experiences, often hopping from one specialty to the next, is the only way to get proficient at this game, and it offers PRECIOUS LITTLE in the way of monetary rewards, let alone respect. 

I agree with Oldster.  Best word of advice I can give you, kid, and I don't even know you:  "Get out while the getting is good."  Find another line of work.  You will not regret it.  This field?   You'll flood the field with your tears.   Best of luck to you, young lady.

we wish we would've done, wouldn't have done, and misgivings in just about every aspect of life, but this is not a dress rehearsal.  This is your life, your children's lives. You have a little girl who DEPENDS ON YOU! to take care of her, to look out for her interests. If you think she is too young to know what is going on, you are mistaken.  Adults just don't give children enough credit. They FEEL things, but  can't express them, instead they internalize, and becomes a part of their being, in their soul, if you will. 

As stated, I had to leave my first marriage, and it was NOT what I wanted, but it was what I NEEDED!  Didn't know it at the time, and SCARED, was I scared!  But most of all, what I didn't realize at the time was that my children had to PUT UP with ME, sad, crying all the time, angry. I thought I was a good mother, but in actuality, I was an enabler.  Always there when he needed me, always dinner on the table, always a clean house, always, always everything to everybody....but not me, and not the mother I wanted to be when I carried my children. 

Life is just way too short... 

In just about every one of your answers, you have "ifs, ands or buts."  Is your situation really going to change? Most likely it will not.  One thing it took me awhile to learn in life is that I am the only one I can change, myself, I CANNOT change anyone else.... I am not trying to tell you what to do, I really have a hard enough time living my own life.  Just relating to you what I see from this vantage.  God bless.
