Look at the Company Board. Names given

Board names or not, some people, myself included...
don't care to discuss what they make. Why should we? It is such an individual thing and based on so many factors that is is impossible to draw any meaningful conclusions.
The type of work, as well as the MTs experience, ability to research effectively, retention and overall knowledge and intelligence, self-discipline (and much more) are variable, to say the least.
What others make is totally irrelevant to what someone else may make.

Why in the world is this crazy board so addicting?
Anybody know? I am spending more time on here than I am working! What is wrong with me?
On job board "New World Trans" ...I am wondering
firstly what kind of company they are when they cannot spell the word "pedal" correctly and also 7 cents CAD??? What is the CAD? Something fishy about his ad.
When people use last names for first names.
You can't tell what sex the person is, and it just sounds so pretentious and stupid.
Hunter, Tyler, Taylor, Cameron, Morgan, Parker, Porter.
Really soap-operaish and annoying.
Well they DO have different last names. nm

re: looking up names
If the doctors do not bother to spell the patient names and the offices do not bother to provide me with a patient list for the visit date, they get a verbatim spelling of the name and a note to please check the spelling of all names. I don't have the time to dig around on the internet looking for their patients names and I do not feel it is my job and I do not expect my subs to do it. If they provide us with a list, yes, I expect them to use the list but otherwise they get what they say for names and the office has to verify the names. If the company you work for pings you for QA issues by doing this, then I honestly would find someone else to work for.
looking up names
oh, believe me I do get caught with that all the time and it sucks!!
Let's not name names, please.

names??
I'm applying to several presently...any chance you could tell me which bad ones those are?
first names sm
I am called Grammy by my grandchilden and "Mom" by my sons. However, my daughters-in-law were told they could call me by name as they have their own Moms. One does and the other one doesn't call me anything. I always sign cards, etc., "Mom and Dad and then our last name, so they will still be part of us, but these girls obviously are not as close to me as their own moms. If they did call me Mom it would be okay, but I don't think they think of me in this way, I would be honored if they did. It's difficult. Most of my son's older friends call me by Mrs. and a few, very few by our first names and it's okay. I don't like being too formal. You'll find with grandchildren at some point they will try to use the first name and we always snicker at it,it's just something each of them tried very, very briefly, perhaps once or twice; don't make a lot of it and it's a phase, they get over it quickly if you take it lightly and go right back to "Grammy and Grampy." As long as they don't make derogatory remarks and show respect, I think you have to play it by ear. It's not always easy.I prefer professionals to call me by my first name, a lot ask you on their forms what you wish to be called. I always use my first name, as I think Mrs..... is too stuffy. To each their own, I guess.
first names
I don't care what they call me as long as they are respectful which they all are. I have four girls and we have a house full all the time.
pet names
Shadow is Lab/Golden retriever mix (looks like a black lab)
Sugarbear is Golden retriever/collie mix.
Mr.Whiskers is a stray wire-haired terrier.
Callie is the Queen of All - our calico cat.
names
cat, Simon
cat, sushi, nickname, shooshoo
dog, spanky
I keep a log of every job and their names...nm

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!

What is the Main Board for? All general topics seem to get moved to the new gab board.

We have those names in our town too.

Blame the names
on the 911 system. To help keep dispatchers from having to deal with sound alike names and sending emergency services to the wrong street the 911 center in most areas gets the final say so on whether a street name is okay or not.
When a small rural county I lived in went with the 911 system those of us who lived in the small cities had to rename some of the existing streets since there were streets in the rural areas of the county over 50 miles away with the same names.
Not street names, but how about....
the STUPID names they give the different models of new homes... When we bought ours, they were things like El Capitan, El Sonoro..... etc. We bought the smallest and cheapest model and my DH always said that we bought the EL CHEAPO!
street names
Used to work on Blue Rock STREET...lived with my folks on Blue Rock ROAD...which has about 3 blocks of what people think are Cheviot Road...goes back to Blue Rock Road....then 5 miles away, next street over is OLD Blue Rock Road Road....creates havoc for delivery people
Street names
We have Easy Street and Boardwalk in our subdivision.
I use Superpages to look names up.
Same as checking in a phonebook..no other personal info.
patient names
This is a problem that I am currently struggling with. My accounts are not 'searchable' and some docs don't spell out the patient's names. I have QC'd these many times with a note AND my e-mail address asking QC if I should be sending all these reports to them minus the patient's name, or send it to them GUESSING the spelling, or just spell the names phonetically and NOT QC them. About 15 requests now, and NO REPLY!! Very frustrating!!! Otherwise, the account is really good. I am new, so did not realize that other platforms gave credit for footers, headers, etc. I know on DQS you get a fair line count on just the body of the report. Don't know about the rest.
Patient Names
You'd be surprised how many facilities have the patient's name on the report. Its not that uncommon. Depends on the facility and the company you work for.
the names are usually bleeped out...sm
for privacy reasons, as are dates, hospital names, etc. Anything identifying would be bleeped out...at least in my experience...
names bleeped
It is a test run so I am just not sure what they would want me to do. I have worked for several companies that use the doctor's names in reports but not the patients. Even at the local hospital they used the doctor's names but not the patient's name. What would you do on a test run for employment?
There are quite a few names that come to mind
for people like you. Who are you to try to slam me?
My income knocks me out of getting a lot of the "breaks" you are implying. I'm not taking advantage of any of you, period. I earn my way and always have. My children and I have never been on any type of assistance, EVER, and only 2 years have I ever qualified for EIC.
My income alone is more than most couples in this area. I see 2-wage-earner homes taking advantage of MY tax dollars, thank you very much.
You can just shut your foul mouth and stick it where the sun doesn't shine!!!
At least we have stuck to our names
and people know who we are unlike most posters on this board who change their name on every single post! I guess they like to be easily forgotten.
Funny Names
Harry Butts - I used to work with him - but he died. This was not the Harry Butts proctologist from Houston, though, it was another one from the Tarrant County Hospital District (Fort Worth)
We need to know the names of these companies.
There are too many that pay late or do not pay on time and some are very popular services
Thanks for update. I don't know any of those names, only
saw a few minutes of it, but I'll be watching or taping from now on.
The ugliest names...
Bertha, Gertrude, Janet, Janice, Harriett are horrendus.
The prettiest? Kiersten, Mandy, Natalie, Ursula, Natasha, Lana, Kiersti.....
ugly names
I used to work with a woman named GayDonna -- yes, that was her REAL name!!!
doctor names
Does anyone know a website where I can type in the name of a doctor with a "sounds like" feature to try and find the correct spelling of a doctor's name? AMA wants the doctor's last name ('required' it says). IF I KNEW THAT I WOULDN'T NEED THE DARN WEBSITE NOW WOULD I??!!! But it allows you to do a "sounds like" for the first name, which is not particularly helpful AT ALL. If anyone knows of any websites that allow this would you please enlighten me? I thank you so much!!

Thanks to you all very much for your help. I've made note of all these sites.
