How annoying. What is it with the flaky factor?
Not transcription related but I am trying to get volunteers to help with a big community theater project and I don't know how many times I get the "oh yeah I will definitely be there blah blah" and I end up with mostly no-shows!!! I mean I know it's volunteer but why lie? If they don't want to, just $%#^ SAY SO.. Can't imagine people doing that to a real job, what idiots.
Seems there are plenty of flaky transcriptionists...sm
out there. I have been working for the same MTSO as an IC for approximately 12 years. During that time, I have found in talking with the owner that there are plenty of transcriptionists out there who don't do the work when they are supposed to, call at the very last minute to say that they won't be able to do the work (which is okay sometimes, but some people do this weekly). They will start the job and last two weeks and then disappear off the face fo the earth. They make the same st*pid mistakes over and over and over and over. My company has a real appreciation for the few of us who actually do an excellent job for them and we are treated with great respect. We get the best accounts and when something happens where we need extended time off (like having a baby!), they will make sure someone can cover our accounts without making us feel guilty. Good luck with your company. I hope you find some good people to work for you! P.S. Apparently "st*pid" is a bad word on this board!
You're right, you could be my neighbor. My neighbor is flaky, too.
