I don't know why the anonymity of a board leads to....sm

folks taking things wrong, as in above post. I was NOT inferring, in any way, shape, or form, that NORTHERN MTs/people/whatever are smarter, better educated, or MORE WELL-ROUNDED; rather, I was one of the first to respond to this posting, and was just trying to explain that even with hospitals, there is a ladder system, the longer you have been doing MT, the courses/schools, the previous jobs, and most importantly, how many specialities/worktypes you are able to do well, THOSE are the things an employer generally looks at when deciding pay offers. I have lived in the South, and also in the West.....no sarcasm was needed, only assistance was intended. Geesh, getting back to work is refreshing.

Welcome to anonymity on the Internet.
If people had to be accountable and post their identities, we wouldn't see a lot of these downright nasty comments. However, that is the nature of the online beast. You just have to learn to ignore the nasty remarks and concentrate on the people who ARE helpful.

Some people just get their jollies being mean and you have to remember it's nothing personal and consider the source. You'll likely never meet these people and they don't know anything about you in most cases, so just let it roll. Often those people are slamming others all over the internet. It makes them feel big, when in reality, they are the most insecure people of all with little to no self-esteem. Anyone who would sacrifice even a minute of their busy time just to be mean cannot be a very happy person.

There are nice and helpful people here, so give THEM your energy and ignore the negative ones. :)
Anonymity rather. Oh, gawd, I'm tired.

EKG uses 12 leads I through XII
:
He often leads parades in Hawaii...
where he chants "No ice in paradise!" - referring to crystal meth - big problem there.
I'd love to give you some leads (sm)
since I was recently applying to find a second source of work.  Send me an email, Jackie, and tell me what you're looking for in a service.
The link leads to PDF download.(sm)
You can then look the form over and see how much applies to your situation. You are the one to choose whether or not to ask the IRS to make a determination of your employment status. The service will know once you have filed the form since the IRS will send them one to fill out and will tell them who asked for the determination.
Leads to same template I mentioned above
There is still no link to a medical staff listing.
Why do they call them team leads?
When they really do not seem interested in "leading" anything or anyone? Yes, I am a tad bit frustrated today!

Don't send me an email to which I answer your question right away, then wait an hour and a half to answer back, if you answer at all. And please, READ the email I have taken the time to send, trust me on this one, its obvious when you don't.*sigh*

I take great pride in my work. No matter whether I feel I am getting paid enough, or treated well enough, I still feel it is my responsibility to produce the best possible results in my position. It is my reputation I am protecting, not theirs.

Is this a lost art? Why do other act like since they work from home they don't have to take it seriously? If you have been put in the position of leading people, guiding them, training them to do the position they were hired to do. THEN DO IT! Don't leave me with more questions than answers! If you agree to take the position of "leader" then don't make me feel is if I am an inconvenience.

No, I will not name the company. I believe this is a good company so I am not trying to bash them. In the last few years I have worked for 3 nationals. Only one had leadership that actually knew what they were training you on and acted like they cared. Unfortunately, their IT department couldn't speak English and I found out they were outsourcing to India, had to leave.

Just my vent for the day!



what leads your believe coding will be electronically?
just curious.
Is QA supervisory? What were your qualifications to get into QA that leads to supervision?
Where do you plan to go from QA?
The 12-lead system comprises six limb (I, II, III, aVR, aVL, and aVF) and six chest leads (V1 to V6)

Thanks everyone for the kind responses. I'm glad I posted. I have gotten some good leads.
And some good advice. Feeling better already!!

cherrypicking co-worker issue (meant to post it on this board instead of MQ board) sm...

I need opinions please...I work on a very small account with just a handful of ladies.  Because of the nature of the software (trying not to get too specific here) we can see who is working online and what reports they are working on in real-time...



We have one cherrypicker on the account.  Instead of using FIFO method, she retrieves the reports by author ID - usually picking the better dictators of course.  She knows I busted her and she did admit to it in on our work e-mail (not too bright) which I am saving just in case she gets out of hand - so far I'm still able to make money since really most of the dictators aren't bad. 



But every night it's starting to wear on me since she's screwing up turnaround time.  I don't really want to cause a big uproar being that it is such a small account and I need to work with her almost every night usually one on one.



What would you all do?  I want to handle this as delicate and professional as possible because we can't really afford to lose anyone on this account.  In other words, I refuse to stoop to her level by cherrypicking right back.


My boss has asked me several times why so-and-so does so much more than I do...I just bite my lip at that point but one of these days I think I might explode and just open up a can of worms....


Definitely one of the other board's people who refer to those on this board as "holy rollers,&
Now go ahead and post your reply - I know you're dyin' to!

Job Board ???
What happened to the Job Board that was at the top of the Job Seeker's Board?  I have not been able to find it for several days.  HELP!
It has been said MQ has own board here,
nm
new to the board

Just wanted some insight I guess on what the whole field is about, i.e. hospitals versus working at home, etc.  I know that sounds broad, but there is so much info on here, it's hard to grasp it all. 


 


 


On this board is the first I have ever
heard of this ASR. So, everybody will be doing this?
You will never believe it according to this board
but I am out of Amherst. Obviously, if you run out of work, it is not the MTs fault, but if the work is there and you can't be productive, I think there is a problem with the MT. I do run out of work as well, but I have never been on this board complaining about it. I find different times to work when the work is there to get my lines in. It is as simple as that.
See job board
There was a job for veterinary ophthalmology listed on the job board late last week, but I think they required a fair amount of experience...
Welcome to the board! nm

Sorry if on this board you can't say
you've missed people. I will be back on later and I am sure, Happy MQer, one of you will too. I look forward to it! xx oo
Please.. what board are we on?
take it to your cronies.
I have only been on this board
a short time myself when things started to go bad. I feel it is an outlet for me because as I and others have stated MQ does not care and we want to speak to each other in some form.

I am not afraid of taking any leap. I am trying to stay with a company that I have been loyal to because I have been with them so long. I do not enjoy jumping from job to job. I do not like being treated this way and it only happened within the last couple of months.

There are no proper channels at MQ. I have tried, believe me.

I do have control over my life that is for sure and I know when I am being treated unfairly and now is that time. I will be doing something about it; but I need to find that other job. I just can't quit, cannot afford to, and who knows how long it will be before I can get started again all over.

I have 20 years experience and have never been treated like this so it is a bit overwhelming and unbelievable that it is happening. I expected to be with MQ until I retired. No such luck now.

I will be leaving this board soon but when people, not saying you, are nasty and do not understand what is going on it is hard to not respond to them.
Has anyone seen the job board

And if so,why isn't everyone going with them? Sure sounds good.


There's an ad at the top of the job board saying this exactly
But don't know anything about the company.
