I am a company employee working at home being paid production, NOT hourly. I have set hours because the company claims I need to be available "if something comes up from the client" and I'm needed. I understand that. When there is no work though, I am still expected to be here for my scheduled hours though I am not being paid to do so. This lack of work has been going on for weeks, my paycheck is no where near what it should be, but I am expected to be available, regardless. Is this the norm?

In this scenario..sm
I would venture taking a guess at one hour of typing per 10 minutes of dictation. I can do 2 hours of dictation in about 12 hours of typing, and that is with knowing my doctors and using expanders. This may take longer with it being a meeting type format and probably various people. Good luck.
Not even close to the same scenario.
Oh, please... that's like saying you should put your dog into a little cage that's only 4x his size, and give him a little exercise wheel and that he'll be fine... after all, that's what people with hamsters do, right? Apples and oranges. Again, talk to your vet.
What about this scenario, folks!
What do you think of a manager of many MTs, who shares intimate details with each of us regarding her situation as a wife as well as sharing details of other MTs with each other, some extremely complicated and highly personal, which I believe were given to her in confidence. Then, having her turn into a professional zealot and alienate us with her emotionless response to us which is such a contradiction to prior interactions that it leaves us spinning and feeling as if we do not know her at all.
I have come upon this before early in my career. And I would say that changing ths subject in the conversation is the answer so to not end up in this web. What do you think though? It is awkward and confusing.
She is new at supervision and maybe it can be chocked up to that but she holds a lot of power over us and some whom she confided in during long emotion-filled conversations, word has it, she has turned against to the point they had to transfer to another department.
It is placing a shadow over the job for me ![](http://forum.mtstars.com/misc/smileys/sad.gif)
ONE Virginia scenario
SCENARIO: You and your husband jointly own a home, both names are on the deed. You both technically own the home 100%. That's right, 100% plus 100% equals 100%. He has NO WILL, but dies, taking his 100% with him. You are left with 100%. If he dies with NO WILL and your name is not on the deed, the house is divided between you and any children. My grandmother, mean-spirited woman that she was, was widowed. Husband had no will. Grandma had a will, and left $1 to one of her children. However, her name had never been on the deed of the house. So, she really did not have the right to only leave that child $1.00, and when she died, all of her children received equal portions of the estate. Because her name was not on the deed, the house was not 100% hers upon grandpa's death, even though she was legally married to grandpa.
The scenario you are describing is often (sm)
encountered when working the graveyard (3rd) shift. If you can steer clear of that shift, despite the shift differential, don't take it on. Long ago, company hierarchy coined these workers "the clean-up sweepers."
Yes, and FEMA went through this exact scenario
for this storm with the same demographics and destruction level almost a year ago with NO and they were told they would not survive, given a list of procedures and policies to put into place, etc., and a hefty grant to initiate all the action...almost a YEAR ago. Nothing was done by NO authorities. Nothing.
He will have his share of blame for this, I'm sure.
but if the same scenario you describe existed 30 years ago, you would not know because

As this is the best case scenario. They aren't allowing
anyone on the first level at all and CNN says only 30,000 people and that the transportation to the dome has been shut down, but they will take people in if they come.
They lost me. That bomb scenario was just too stupid. nm
