BUNCH - anon

Posted: Jan 12, 2013

Everyone on this board moans about how much they hate MModal and how horribly they're treated, but when given the opportunity to make the company squirm in a crisis, you all lick their boots and can't wait to help them out with the "incentives", which are impossible to meet, so you are working for the same nothing you always make. I'm done with this board.

Who's happy about the incentive? - not me

but you can go if you like. You won't be missed. Actually won't even know you are gone since everybody on here uses the same name as you.

Big deal. If they really wanted to clear out the backlog and not have their customers wait for reports, why not pay us incentive for ALL the reports we type.No minimum required. they aren't doing us any favors, they are still making their big bucks and us little peons are helping the powers that be get richer.

didn't I just say I wasn't happy about it? - not me

[ In Reply To ..]
and weren't you done with this board?

who are you speaking to because I don't know what you are talking about - anon

[ In Reply To ..]
You must have me confused with another anon signer. I think there may be hundreds of us. Don't group me in with someone you "think" you know.

well "anon" started the thread - so it made sense to me

[ In Reply To ..]
since "anon" started the thread, and then an "anon" replied to my post, how was I supposed to know it was two different "anons"?

Not impossible to meet incentive. - Met it before noon!

[ In Reply To ..]
Now, I have 2-1/2 days of an extra 3 cpl which will help greatly since I had no work for 3 weeks. I think I might be able to put food on the table next pay day!

oh really you got 3400 lines - in by noon?

[ In Reply To ..]
well aren't you special

My incentive was half that - Met it before noon!

[ In Reply To ..]
That 3400 is for you, mine was lower. Some have very high ones, some are very low. I did not assign them, and I have no clue how they are calculated.

No, I am not special by the way!

well then maybe you should stop bragging - you think? nm

[ In Reply To ..]
nm

Maybe you should stop complaining! - GEEZ

[ In Reply To ..]
What is the matter with you people!

Well you been on here all day telling us - how you have already hit your target

[ In Reply To ..]
Okay we got it you hit your target. Oh so easy to hit your target. It would take me two full days to hit mine.

And you have been on here complaining all day! - We get it, you are miserable!

[ In Reply To ..]
We get it, you complain all day, you will never hit your target, it is impossible to reach, you are so unhappy, boo hoo!

never said I was miserable - but if your target was as high as mine

[ In Reply To ..]
we'd be hearing a different tune from you.

No you either did not work in December or are a low producer - mine is almost 4000

[ In Reply To ..]
They averaged lines produced per hour for 6 weeks and if you took vacation that actually dropped your line count. Or you cannot produce more than 100-150 per hour and your lines were calculated at the minimum. Either would explain your extremely low number. Glad at least someone is going to make money during this incentive. Since mine was so high I opted out. Only Mmodal rewards the low producers and encourages the high producers to stay on the sidelines.

Im not a low producer - I average 290 lph

[ In Reply To ..]
Maybe it is because I had NO WORK in December, but either way, dont accuse me of being a low producer. I never get rewarded from this company. I have had 4 pay cuts and no raises since 2000. My last paycheck was under 200 for 2 weeks because of no work. Now excuse me if I jump on and get some work, I need food in my house.

If you read the bullets underneath - your calculated rate

[ In Reply To ..]
It states that if your number is below the minimum lines required for your job classification then your goal is the minimum lines for your job classification. I take that as meaning if they give you a goal of 1500 lines, but you are a FT employee your goal would really be 3600 lines before the bonus kicks in. Correct me if I am wrong. They do not make it easy do they.

when did you start, at midnight? - me

[ In Reply To ..]
LOL

Feels like it - Met it before noon!

[ In Reply To ..]
I am pretty sure there will be no work on Monday, and having been out of work for over 3 weeks, I really needed some lines. I just decided that I needed to get it before its gone.

Might be able to put food on the table? It is a - sad day

[ In Reply To ..]
when we work as hard as we do and we can't feed our families or ourselves. I know where you are coming from and I wish you all the best and hope you get a good paycheck next payday.

good riddance - see ya

[ In Reply To ..]
buh bye

Stupid question...but how do you know your target? - clueless over here.

[ In Reply To ..]
Im scheduled to work tomorrow, not gonna work any harder then usual, just curious

Mine was on the email... - me

[ In Reply To ..]
that I got from my TSM about the incentive.

Guess I should have actually read an email for a change - sm

[ In Reply To ..]
gotta love the target they set,,,I have never hit that line count..wonder where they got that from? Like I say, dont care, I dont work any harder then normal any way...have a good one all..

it's in your email - did you get an email?

[ In Reply To ..]
It has an individual target for each MT, along with all the convoluted formulas for arriving at it. Usually it comes out to about what you make in 2 days, so you would have to work 2 full days and then anything over and above that, you get the 3 cents per line, which most don't feel is worth the effort.

I think its more .. - anon

[ In Reply To ..]
like 12-13 hours work so not quite 2 days. But if you work 8 hours on Monday anyway there are 8 hours already done, so you would have to work an additional 4-6 hours spread over 3 days before it kicked in. So you if you work 4 hours each Saturday and Sunday and say 2 hours more on Monday it would be added to about 5 hours of lines. But you also get overtime if you exceed 40 hours for the week plus the additional lines you wouldn't normally get. But to each her/his own.

yeah that would work - if Monday was a regular day for you

[ In Reply To ..]
it isn't for me.

Why are you giving dislikes? Everything the - sick of the games

[ In Reply To ..]
person said was true. This company is so greedy, they expect us to work like dogs to clean up their mess. Come on, we work for CPL, so give us extra CPL for all work done until the mess is cleared up. We shouldn't have to "qualify" for an incentive since it is their mess we are cleaning up.

Hey, I - got

[ In Reply To ..]
the email too and I don't even work on DEP. I will say my goal was cut in half because I had no work. That, I am sure, is how the person below met their goal by noon. Anyway, even if I was on DEP, they can take it and shove it. I would rather have work all the time instead of busting out lines to help them out. I need a paycheck too, but I need one all the time, not just to help them out.
