Yes, no, no biggie either way

I dont know about it.  Two companies that I worked for were sold right from under our noses.  The rumors were there and of course the major denial.  Denial by the owners, the workers at the main office.  In one case, one week after the owner denied it, there was an email stating we were sold.  Of course no employee is going to spill the beans before corporate gives the okay to discuss it or sends out their own letter/email informing the workers.  However, the ones working with the main employees know, such as the owners secretary, etc., but they are not going to jeopardize their own jobs by telling.  I read with interest how some called their local MQ offices and asked.  Get real, do you think they are going to tell a home worker who they dont even know what is going on when corporate hasnt given the okay yet?  Like I said, I had this happen to me two times..strong denials up until the very end.  Besides, it might be better if MQ is sold, maybe we will all be guaranteed more work..and I would not worry about losing the job..In both of my experiences, they keep the employee on.

    Yup - no biggie

       On your notification, you should have formal instructions about request for being excused from JD.  You are a medical professional, self-employed, and if it creates a hardship you need to state so - do not wait until you are scheduled to appear, take care of this in advance.   Usually, it's the prothonotary's office but may be different in your state.  Just follow the rules in the paperwork you received.  You may again be asked to serve again in 6 months or later on.


          You have no control over what JD pool you are in - worst case - some court cases can take months and most MTs would lose everything if required to sit every day for entire trial. 


     


    No biggie :o). This way I don't even hit it
    It's only air and I'm getting used to not straying too far from the correct key :o). Thanks, though!
    I have. No biggie. It was really kind of SM
    fun for me, because I got to watch it. Amazing to the doc AND me because he couldn't believe what he was seeing. My symptoms weren't even that bad but woweee did I have horrible reflux.
    Billing once a month is not a biggie BUT
    do it on a Net 10 or Net 15. Never a Net 30. You could end up doing 2 months work for free eventually. No account is worth that.
    Loss of Qtr. bonus not a biggie to me. Will stay. (sm)
    I am only part time SE so I really don't get much in the way of quarterly bonuses, on the other hand though I would enjoy having some PTOs accrue and participation in a 401K.

    I will just wait and see what comes. I understand there are some offices that don't get the quarterly bonus, so in an attempt to make everything "uniform" I wouldn't be surprised if they redid that bonus program.

    Speculation and guess-timations are about all we have for now.


    LOL...you're hilarious! It's mindless (harmless) fun, that's all. No biggie. NM

    no biggie, Linda was class act, Heather N_O_T
    When the GROWN-UP kids (in their 30s) don't like the second wife, something is not right in Glocamora.  While I wasn't all that fond of Linda, she was a CLASS act and was the daughter of Eastman-Kodak fame.  Everyone remember the Brownie Cameras from the 1940s-1950s?  That was Linda's family as I remember it or the Eastman's hooked up with the Kodak family right around then or in the very very early 60s.  My short-term memory isn't that good (isn't that the first to go after the eyes start?  *lol*) but my long-term is on target most times.  *lol*
