Got 3 e mails that say all areas need urgent help - anon


Posted: Nov 23, 2013

All of a sudden there is lots of work. What is up with that? they lay off people because not enough work and now work is overflowing.

What would be an excellent response to that is - SM

An email that says:

"A lack of planning on your part does NOT constitute immediate attention on my part."

Easy to say when it is someone else's paycheck - on the line. nm

People are posting how they want to be laid off or fired - this would be the way to go SM

is a response like this, worded differently to state something like how you would help but you've already made prior plans because of the low workload every week and you had no idea there would be excessive unscheduled work on the weekends, and so on.

Normally I don't answer - because

My days off I am as so far off and away from work, it isn't even funny. I check my email when I come back in to work and not before, unless, of course, I am extremely bored and need some overtime. I would rather leave the "extra" for those that are running short on hours or part time.

Can someone explain to me what the variances are in the areas?  I know what area I'm in but also have a #6 denoted for my work.  I don't understand what these codes mean in my area (1-6).  My CCM hasn't responded to my question and so I'm hoping somebody here knows the answer.     ...

Once Upon An Urgent Care Visit...

I went to Urgent Care with my fiance last week as he was not feeling well.  They got us right in.  A medical assistant took his vitals immediately. The doctor was in within 5 minutes.  (There was only one person in the waiting room ahead of us and, incidentally, no one yet after us.)  Everyone was very nice, personable, and efficient.  The doctor started asking my fiance questions about his health, as he sat in front of a laptop computer and entered all the information h ...

Misunderstood In E-mails
Sep 23, 2010

Hi everyone:)  Have you ever felt that your e-mails were completely misunderstood by a supervisor?  Recently, I sent an e-mail explaining myself about something that came up, but the answer I received was totally the opposite of what I had tried to explain, and I just sat here shaking my head, and thinking "what just happened."  It made me look like I had deliberately said something that was untrue and tried to cover myself, which was not what I meant to do.  Rather, I was tr ...

S.O.S. E-mails On Weekends
Dec 15, 2013

Why are we always expected to work extra and catch up on overdue work on the weekends that builds up because there's not enough coverage? Here's an idea:  schedule and/or hire the appropriate number of MTs to cover those two days instead of asking us to make it all better when the weekend panic mode sets in, which is every single weekend lately.  Of course in order to attract weekenders, that would entail actually paying a living wage a ...

You have to do the QCare thing when you get NJA.  Then, they send you a ticket number.  Great.  What do you do with the stupid ticket number?  Are you entered in a drawing?  Do they pick random ticket numbers and award the winner some work? Then, days later, you get another e-mail saying it is resolved? What the heck is that about?  Who resolved what?  Did the QCare staff magically send me work?  Do they get some award off of my ticket number for the fast ...

Supervisor Ignores My E-mails??
