People have no patience anymore. I gave a $10.00 donation and I got an email the next evening.

I think since these people also have a transcription service, no one should expect an instant response. Besides, it's more about giving than getting anyway.

great - i will email you later this evening
and let's see if we can find a match for you!
I don't understand. I didn't get email from MT Stars, I got email from offshore people
is what I'm talking about. I'm not a liar and take offense to your insinuation.
I know some people don't like to give money, but if everyone gave
money and they were wise with it, they would have their fairy tale wedding sooner maybe. Maybe she could list things she wanted for her big wedding like her gown and her flowers and you could get a gift certificate from there and then they wouldn't have spent the $$ on something else.
Last year, many people gave & we were able to raise
right at $1700.00 for the Salvation Army Christmas Angel program. That couldn't have happened without people giving to the cause.
MTStars Santa's House will be running until Dec. 20 and I am sure plenty of people will donate a buck or two to help us raise money for Operation Christmas Child.
LOL, 2 other people gave her links to the list
The OP should never have a question regarding dangerous abbreviations again. (It was kind of you to offer, btw.)
What about if you came the evening before and Thanksgiving day later in the evening? sm
This way it wouldn't interfere too much with the actual holiday and their plans. Just an idea on how to compromise.
The way people appear in public anymore--
Reminds me of a T shirt I saw that read-- Too many freaks, not enough circuses. I think slippers are the least of your worry. I think people should at least be covered up and not letting everything hang out for public display. If they want to look like that at home, but not in public.
I just ignore people anymore...they don't bother to listen anyway---LOL
It is hard when you have to take care of the kids (mine are 8 and 14 months), work and somehow manage to have your house not look like a disaster area...sounds fun to me---LOL...in all seriousness though I love my job and that I am here for my kids and I don't have to justify that to anyone...
I think lots of people not paying for the years anymore
If that were the case with 30+ years, my per line pay would be more than what I make now. No more pay for experience.
You know, I dont think people care anymore what MQ offers or doesnt offer, I think everyone is just
sick of all the confusion, dishonesty, sneakiness, etc. You never know what is around the corner so after this there will be something else no doubt. I think I and most other MQ MTs just want a company that they can respect and trust. MQ can offer this package and turn right around and change that. Leopards dont change their spots. It seems like they are intent on running this company into the ground and they are doing a good job of it. I dont see how they ever will stand up against the money they owe all of these hospitals. You still have to wonder what prompted them to send checks out to the DQS MTs for mistakes in calculation of lines. Give me a break. Maybe they are trying to settle lawsuits to get out of the MT business and focus on just technology. They sure dont know what they are doing with the MT side for sure. I think they felt they had everyone up against a brick wall but as accounts leave so will MTs or MTs will just move on to another business as the wages get lower and lower so then all the work can go to India. Older MTs will cut back or retire and younger ones will leave for something else when they see what they have to battle with the work left over from ASR or VR for the small amount of money not to mention EMRs coming quickly.

i hate that expression. makes no sense to me.

she is one scary chick to be raising kids.
Never had this happen either. Email the SH people. They're very prompt with help. Good

Absolutely, will have it set up by this evening.

the last wedding I went to was in the evening and...sm
most of the guests were wearing black. Of course, it was elegant dresses, with sequins and sparkles. It actually made the pictures turn out wonderful, very classy looking. Black can be fun, if you dress it up. If you are wearing say a black skirt, pair it with a flashy top, sequins, etc, if the wedding is at night. As for daytime, I think I'd steer clear of black and opt for something bright or neutral. Of course, this is JMHO, of course. Anyhow, the most important thing is to be there to support the new couple and, most of all, have fun! Best wishes to the bride and groom! 
Hey DP/No Whining...whoever your alter ego is this evening....

Thanks

Sheri, Just made a donation. While the offer of sending the software was a very nice gesture, you do not need to send me anything. Have a very Merry Christmas. Renee
Donation
I am heartened by the quick response of so many to donate to this cause, but I am also dishearted by so much skepticism out there at this situation. I am a skeptic too, but if someone needs help, we should all be more than willing to help out. What if it was you or your kids?? Would you want skepticism to keep your kids from having at least a little something under the tree? Follow your hearts, not your egos from having had a bad experience or two in life. We all have had those. Merry Christmas to all who have contributed so far! and to those who still will. :^) Kathy S.
BOL! ... Put me down for a donation ... ;-)

I just gave notice at my job and all I gave them was when my last day would be. SM
I don't think they even cared why I was quitting. I called the supervisor to tell her in person and she simple said "I need it in writing and when will your last day be". Personally, I like things quick and painless.
My Golden does that same exact thing every evening at the
exact same time, 9:30 p.m. This usually happens after she is finished eating. We leave her bowl down 24/7 and she eats whenever she is hungry, so food never became an issue. She tends to eat mostly in the evening around 9 PM and she gets energy spurts right after. How funny is that!
She is 4 years old and still plenty active. She is my best buddy though. Awesome breed, would never want any other.
Labs and retrievers must have exercise every day. We walk for at least 30 minutes with at least 15 minutes of free run for her in an open field.
Love my Golden!
Why is it that when I work evening here/there, all reports are 15-min. ESL dictations that no one fe

Patience. (SM)
I do not live on this board 24/7. You made some good points in your post above and I will review posts later today as I have time.
Patience
I have worked for Med-Tech in Marietta for 5 years. The only time I had a problem with not receiving a check was due to a postal problem. I know they put the check in the mail but the post office screwed up. Also, they pay on the 1st and the 15th.
patience
Like the previous poster said, make a folder with all your QA corrections. When you get a contradiction, send those to the person in charge and ask which is correct. That's about all you can do at this point.
do you think there will be some type of donation drive?
the post office usually sets up spots for donations, or lets you leave items for them to pick up. my heart was so moved when they did this in our area for the tsunami victims, and driving around seeing all the bags of donated goods made me almost cry.
something I noticed was that mostly the lower to middle class (still exist?) left items. their neighborhoods were full of bags of goods at their mailboxes for the tsunami victims.
Cards that say donation to charity sm
St. Jude's Children Hospital has them, it reads that a gift to the hospital has been given to the hospital in their honor. Very nice, not too personal and no hint that some return gift is expected.
nothing to do with patience or impatience...
it's all about a "war against terrorism." Go get the terroists! not invade a country that had absolutely nothing to do with it.. Now he has a huge problem with terroists in Iraq because he HELPED make more terrorists with a breeding ground and "practice" for wannabe terroists. He could not have HELPED the terrorists more than he did when HE INVADED IRAQ! "War on terrorism?" Now, when we get hit again, and we WILL, our troops will be Iraq. Leadership? No. Idiotcy? Yes! Nothing to do with patience or impatience. It is all about leadership, or the lack thereof! But you people voted for him because of "religious" values. How religious is it to kill thousands of innocent women and children for NO REASON? Now he, and we, are in HUGE MESS, and he doesn't have a clue as to what to do next!
You must truly have the patience of a saint.

Make a donation to a children's charity or
and ask if there's anything you can help them do...like write acknowledgements for flowers so they don't have to face it.
Yes, everyone who make a donation gets to pull from Santa's Bag.

Y'know, patience is a virtue! SM
No one's paid to provide help here and posting links can be time-consuming. I was on my way to post when I saw the comment and almost said "forget it." However, here are some links for you.

I have no patience for the condescending posts!
I've been lurking here for over a year and I'm amazed how nasty, consdescending and judgemental these people can be! Just like I don't do well with an employer treating me like crap, I don't do well with being "talked down to" by the rude posters on this board.
Black IS proper evening formal attire. Sounds gorgeous.

Well I just finished watching Desperate Housewives and Grey's Anatomy. How that for an evening. N

patience prudence..keep notes and continue to try.
Have patience!! Its a brand new program for at home
MTs, and I'm sure the Board of Directors or suits of whatever title are wanting some proof that the at-home MTs are to be trusted. Perhaps in a couple of months, once they know who they can trust to work and who not, the program won't be implemented as strictly as at the start. Sadly, while you may be a conscientious, trustworthy MT, many are not, particularly in house hospital MTs. Been there, done that! Sounds like a good change for you! Good luck!
Most companies won't have the patience for your lack of doing your own work. nm

Sending good karma and patience your way...
Prizes are awarded the next business day. Thank you for your patience!

YAY!!! YAY!!! YAY!!! Good things happen to those who have the patience (I am not one of them)!!!

Personally I dont ridicule, but have no patience
Just saying "It is too hard to change" and "the company is making me poor/homeless/stressed etc is a cop-out. Get proactive and help yourself. And those that do play into the poor victim routine do not help fellow MTs, they just perpetuate the idea that MTs can do nothing to help their own situation.
