What to do.

I have worked for a multi specialty acute care hospital for 6 years and all was well until recently. Long story short, I feel like I am being jerked around. They say I don’t meet production standards but the production standards change without notice. First it is 800 per day, then 1000, now 1200 but even if you get say 1200 lines per day it only counts as 1100 and something per day because of the crazy way they multiply this, divide that etc. So for punishment I am being pulled in-house to work after the baby is born. They are also accusing me of not routing the reports right. When the moon is full and the fish are biting Dr. Jones wants a copy but when the creeks rise and the humidity is up then he will look it up on the electronic record. We transcribe for over 100 doctors who change their minds and we are supposed to somehow keep up with who wants what and where and who can look it up on the electronic record.
Anyway, I am looking into working part-time for a company after I have the baby as this hospital is 40 miles away which would make an 80 mile round trip and you know about gas prices. I need one that will take out taxes and supply equipment and will allow me to work maybe 20 hours a week working the early morning hours. I have looked at the boards and am nervous about it because they don’t pay as high as this hospital and some people have good experience with the companies and some bad experience and I am just worried about jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire. Maybe MT isn’t for me but I don’t know that maybe pregnancy hormones talking and I am taking this last run-in with my boss too hard.
