In Reply to: What's USMTA? - Emily Ayn
There are a bunch of ideas on the board right now. I posted something suggesting we try to come up with an idea for a name of a new organization, something U.S.-identified and specifically non-AHDI-affiliated.
MTAUS (or whatever it was) flew out of my brain, then one person suggested USMTA. USMTA sounds great but is unfortunately not available as a domain name. But before I could respond, someone had taken it upon herself to start a website using USMTA and to write a description of the organization as well as a mission statement, so that's what you are seeing.
My approach would be a little different. My feeling is that things should proceed carefully, somewhat more deliberately, and with a certain amount of planning--making sure the domain name is going to be available and making sure there is a lot of opportunity for people to read each others' comments and give input, since one of the biggest things I have against AHDI is that they have done everything they have done while no one was looking. This easier said than done with a virtual workforce, but I was thinking that getting a name and then possibly a yahoo users' group would be a way to make it interactive and to wean the whole issue off the MTStars board.
I'm just one MT. I've been posting kind of aggressively on this whole AHDI issue for months now, but I'm certainly not in charge of anything. I just made the suggestion that all the energy behind some of the very angry posts about AAMT/AHDI/MTIA be channeled into a new organization, & I put out a call for a name. I think some care is required at the outset. But it's JMHO.
Certainly if anyone wants to jump on the USMTA bandwagon, by all means, have at it. There's no rule that says there can only be one alternative to AHDI.

Random questions...who does this??
In the middle of a thread talking about whether or not someone should take an hourly shift lead position or stay on production, someone comes in and asks about the going rate for radiology reports???
random calls/drop ins
People just do not understand. I have just had to be rude without apology. I have had so many people call and even though I don't answer still drop by. I have to say that if I am too busy to answer phone then I am also too busy to go to the door. I have had them stand on the door step ringing the bell and calling my phone. More than once I have answered the phone to someone saying they were at my door. I say, "Oh, is that you ringing my bell? Sorry but I am working". They do not like it but neither do appreciate the disrespect. My friends have just learned to laugh it off. I stick to my guns, even with my family No work, no pay, is what I say.
Random comment: No matter how much I SM
hated a particular company, I would not go out of my way to upset workers for that said company. What point would that make?
Why upset former co-workers who might have shared samples, given you support, tried to make you feel better when you were down? I dislike my company, but not my wonderful co-workers. 
Yes, these random QA reports now being done by MQ are being done by QA people that dont even QA the
account and are a pain in the butt. Then they monitor the amount of blanks you have so I will not help out anymore on a new account that needs help because they even monitor those blanks. Who needs this aggravation.
Be honest! If you did not think there were random checks on your reports by QA, would you work
I always strive for excellence in my reports partly due to patient care and then there is my own obsessive-compulsive need to be the best, but having said that, are there those MTs who might not try as hard if they didn't have QA breathing down their necks. Be honest now.
Our 2 previous Dells are now our random computer parts replacement pile. No more Dells. nm
