Can anyone tell me how flex time works - MQMT


Posted: Apr 11, 2010

at Medquist.  I may be taking a different job but kind of wanted to keep this just in case I hate it or the pay is even worse, though I doubt that will happen.  Is there a minimum?  Are you just on call for heavy times?  Just there for trades, etc.? 

TIA

There is no flex time anymore - you have to do 24 hours NM

I wonder that too, I was HIRED as a flex p/t and - NE MT

sometimes they refer to the flex part-timers can do such-and-such and I always wonder what in the heck that means? I just have to make minimum (2000 lines per week) but I only work usually 14 hours a week. It works for me since I have a p/t job somewhere else too.

But yea like someone said, I think you can't be hired for it anymore. I was lucky and got in just before the door closed. Kind of like Raiders of the Lost Ark and getting under the cave door before it closes.

when were you hired at that? - humpfff

I was told that I could not be flex part time almost 2 years ago and have asked several times since and told that this position was eliminated.

I sure would love to know when you were hired for that. I always get the screwdriver!

flex time - sm

I recently dropped to PT and also have to do 2000 lines per PP. But I also have to do 24 hours week. I can easily get those reqired lines in working less than 24 hours. I wish there WAS flex PT, I'd do it in a heartbeat!

Flex Time
May 12, 2012

I was just reading over at the Department of Labor website. It seems to me that many MTSOs have changed the original meaning of "flex time"for employees. Used to be that we had X hours in a day to work our schedule.  (example: 12 hours flexible time to work 7 hours).  Suddenly, it is now 8 hours to work 8 hours with strict adherence.  So, one might say this is done in office jobs.  But when I worked in an office for many years, we were on the clock for everyt ...

Wondering What Everyone Does When OOW..flex Or Not Flex Sm
Jan 02, 2015

What do you all do when you are OOW?  Do you flex and come back later in the day, flex to a different day of the pay week, use your PTO, or take time off without pay? I usually flex and make up later in day or another day, but really getting tired of that, but need the money, even as little as it is these days. Makes for very long days, as you all know.  Starting out working first shift and then having work to midnight is awful. Besides, do not feel right about cutting into other peop ...
