based on cooperation, quality, or anything else, just whether your team leader thinks you are wonderful and so does Deb, but if you are on Deb's list, you get nothing, so just stay quiet in your corner and say nothing or she will slam you.

I think the "R" actually stands for reserved. nm

My sympathy was reserved for the women and families they betrayed. sm
I felt no sympathy for the men at all.
Pets
I encourage you to stay with your pet in your home. If you are stupid enough to put animals above the welfare of humans, we, the rest of the human race, can do without you.
I do not want to be exposed to someone's animals with their ticks, fleas, dander and fur while I'm trying to ride out a storm in a shelter.
You have no right to inflict your animals on me. I do not want my tax money going to feeding and housing someone's pets (unless they are a helping animal, like a "seeing eye" dog or one of the dogs and monkeys that help disabled people.
You idiot animal lovers who put your pets before people need to put up the money to build/rent your own shelters for animals and leave the rest of us out of it.
There is a forum for Pets under
If there is a board for a particular topic, the topic is supposed to be taken to that board. I will be emailing the Administrator.
Anyone have pets that pester more than sm
the family, phone or doorbells? I swear my 2 dogs have it in for me today. I didn't take them for their 1/2 hour walk this morning and now they are being absolutely horrible. Won't leave me alone for anything. Yikes, what a mistake. Yep, this is the absolute worst they have ever been. One at the door staring at me and the other under the desk pawing my leg. I've skipped the walk for 2 days now. Tomorrow I won't and I bet they leave me alone! Shame on me. Full moon maybe?
neglected pets
...funny you should bring that up. I have been so
busy with school and work, my normally sweet cockatiel birds have been monsters!! I have a large office and a couple of months ago they decided they wanted to stay there so I moved in there. What a pain! They sense when I'm stressed and rushing. That's when the screaming starts. I had to leave my office for a half hour, and when I came back, the new telephone cord was chewed off, my papers were chewed and shredded, and one bird was shredding my reference books!!! They are so demanding. If I don't pay attention to then for a half hour before I start working, I will pay dearly!!! But I do so love them!
family pets while working
Have a chair behind my work chair and I HATE when at 2-3am, my cat wants my attention and all of a sudden I feel this "tap" on my back ..no one else here but me but I swear everytime he does that it scares me to death lol
Katrina's Displaced Pets
As most of you know by now, lots of the evacuees are refusing to go because they don't want to leave their pets behind. For all you you pet lovers out here, I've found two sites that are trying to help out in this area that I thought I'd pass on...
www.hsus.org (Humane Society of America)

Has anyone ordered pet meds from Entirely Pets?
My dog has Cushings and is on $200.00/mo worth of meds and we are going broke between them and the $1000.00/year testing needed, not to mention shots, etc. We are paying about $80.00/month for one medicine. I found it at Entirely Pets for $32.00/mo - a big savings. The package they show is the exact same as what we get from the vet, the dosage and the # of pills is also the same. I read the description and it doesn't say anything about it being a generic or anything else that would raise a red flag. I checked this med at 1800PetMeds and it is $60.00/month there.
I'm going to ask my vet tomorrow what she thinks. I don't think she'll have a problem with me getting meds from another source but I'd like to hear feedback from an outside party too.
Just stayed at Drury, they allow pets.

I have Mohawk and it does great with our pets...sm
It's neither the cheapest nor the most expensive carpet. Look around your area for a discount place as you can oftentimes find name brand carpets at a reduced price due to overstocks, discontinued items, etc.
I so hoped they would. I felt for that little boy and others who had to leave their pets.
.
Not to mention extremely dangerous for your pets - sm
especially the flea collars, shampoos, etc. Totally agree. Awful products. Should be banned completely.
Tarro for ants (keep away for Children and Pets)
Worked great for me - like nothing else!
Better yet, keep your pets indoors in a/c and out of parked vehicles. nm

I actually hope these innocent pets get homes more than I care

I wish more people would spay, neuter and take care of the pets
they've already got instead of expecting everyone else to deal with their problem. I get tired of the loose animals running around our neighborhood. People just dump their animals because they can't be bothered to care for them. We've got hundreds of cats running around having kittens all over the place. The kittens wind up feral. My pets are "rescues", but I can't take on any more. I won't, either. It's like kids. Don't have more than you can properly take care of. Don't expect me to take care of the problem you created either.
They are giving good stuff to pets and newbies, and if you
gave them your blood for a year they think they can walk all over you.
I do dog sitting but screen owner and pets carefully. I won't take just anyone.
:)
It is amazing how pets really become real members of the family, isn't it?
Gotta lov'em! :-)
As per your request, Pets and Entertainment forums have been added.
When pets are not confined or supervised, things like this should not be a surprise. nm

I am SE. We used to get bonuses. nm

SE bonuses
if I were you I'd be asking some questions
but bonuses are just that (SM)
Bonuses are not guaranteed. They are supposed to be based on certain criteria, example, if the company makes money, if your performance meets the criteria, etc. It is the deafening silence that speaks so loudly.
BONUSES
Last year we got 50.00 gift cards to Target or Amazon and I sent a group gift to the office staff from Hershey's - it was a computer monitor made out of chocolate which I personalized.
X-Mas Bonuses
We're having a luncheon next week at the office. They have secret santas and we're getting $300 bonuses. This is the first time in 3 years that I've gotten anything. When I was an IC I didn't get a card or a Merry Christmas.
Yes, good parents have nannies for their little pets, kiss their brothers
like they are boyfriends, keep vials of their ex-boyfriend's blood, bounce from relationship to relationship, and break up marriages. Not that Brad is without blame there, but married is off limits. AJ's own father has voiced concerns over her mental status.
Dinner and pets aren't the same as a medical emergency. Capiche?

Its HOT, folks. Give water 2 pets and check on elderly!
Bonuses at MDI Florida?
I have read that MDI Florida gives bonuses for employees that go the extra mile. I have been there over two years and work hard but have not seen a bonus yet. Do they given them out often or at all? They forgot us for transcription week and do not so anything for birthdays so it would be nice to get something out of it all.
NO BONUSES WHATSOEVER
I will get better and improve my skills in time, as I already have, but if these new things are implemented, I will not be given the opportunity to further improve my skills and get better. I will be canned, I suppose, for not meeting quota. From what I gather on this board, everyone with MQ has a different contract. I am new...you have probably been with them for awhile. I HAVE NO BONUSES WHATSOEVER FOR ANYTHING, NO MATTER IF MY QA SCORE IS 100% (IT WAS 98%). You probably have an older, better contract. Most of us are not whining, we are AFRAID. I actually ENJOY working for MQ (look out, I am ducking as I speak), and would like very much to stay, improve my skills and speed AND make more money. And what the heck is this about not more than a certain percentage of reports going to QA? How ridiculous is THAT? (Sorry for being out of the loop, but I do not receive any communication from MQ whatsoever and only hear these things on this board.) If they make a requirement of only a certain percentage of reports going to QA then the MTs are going to be forced to GUESS what the doctor said when he is coughing, slamming the door, phone ringing, TAPE SKIPPING, cut himself off, unintelligible foreign dictator, obviously said the wrong word by mistake, etc. These things I always send to QA. They are the experts and they should decide whether to leave a blank or risk filling it in, not me. If I was so experienced as to be sure what to do in all of these scenarios, I would be QA!!!!!!!!
What are the bonuses for a good QA?
MQ Bonuses ... How it works for me
As long as I have produced a total of 1600 lines on weekend days (however I choose to do it) and have 98% QA or better, I qualify for bonuses once I reach 6001 lines in a payperiod. Bonuses go up to an extra 2 cents per line. They are paid on the bi-monthly check!
Oh, is that so? We get production bonuses, but none for
xx
I remember bonuses. We would get 10%
a Christmas bonus. I still have my gold Seiko as a gift for my 10 yearanniversary with the company.
Dies anyone know if MQ is getting rid of bonuses SM
for SE and if so, when does it begin? thanks.
I don't know what others make on their bonuses.
Mine is usually a thousand; sometimes in the 900's.
No, I won't be happy about it if the bonuses are cut out. It's not the only thing keeping me with MQ though.
I do more work for MQ than for Spheris because MQ pays me more. Spheris doesn't pay quarterly bonuses and their incentive is limited to 1.5 cpl while I can get 2 cpl at MQ.
Losing the qrtly bonuses will not be enough for me to quit MQ.
When is MQ getting rid of the quarterly bonuses? SM
Does it start before or after the OCT bonus?
We had weekend bonuses
When the work was heavy or for holiday weekends for everyone PT/FT but that was cut out in June completely.
Bonuses and overtime
You're very lucky. Do it while it lasts. Once worked for a company that always did that and out of the blue they changed and went on a hiring spree and then not enough work. Would rather work for one like yours.
Speaking of bonuses...
We were getting $3 extra per rad report when out of TAT, but now it is 25 cents. Talk about going from filet mignon 2 horse meat! 
Sign on Bonuses
When are sign on bonuses, relocation assistance, usually paid out?
While getting more bonuses and flexibility and
Make sure you get the whole picture, okay?
Those production bonuses
have always seemed pie in the sky, to me. They're offered so you bust your butt trying to get there, but why would a company want you to earn that consistently? Stands to reason it would be cheaper for a company to pay two part-time, no-benefit people for 175 lines per hour each than one person for 350 lines per hour plus bonus. Or am I just way too suspicious?
We live in the country in the south - been using it for years with kids and pets - no worries or pro

Good for you, I love people who rescue homeless pets. I take in cats myself

Is MQ still paying quarterly bonuses? SM
I was expecting to get a July 15 bonus. Has this changed? TIA
Company Bonuses/Raises
Any companies out there that still give these?  (especially "Cost of Living" raises...)
Most industries do not gives gifts or bonuses...
I would be happy if I got something from my company, but I would not be upset it I didn't.
Why do companies pay hiring bonuses,
advertise in hundreds of papers nationwide, spend $$ printing and mailing out postcards advertising for new MTs, when if they would just pay their current MTs 1 cpl more, or offer benefits or better benefits they wouldn't have a problem.
It seems like in the long run they would come out better and it sure beats having to screen/train, provide equipment, etc. a dozen or more new MTs/week. If the companies have the $$ for all of the above, why can't they pay their MTs more? They may not be getting the line rate they used to get but the money is coming from somewhere.
