When MQ farmed out payroll to ADP, they couldn't get the paydays they wanted because ADP was unable to accommodate them. I guess either MQ dumped ADP or ADP lost some of their accounts.

Strange that we weren't notified of the change other than the pay schedule (that you have to mess with just to get it big enough to see).

That's a good thing, but....sm - mb

I think I'll like being paid every other Friday; that is, if I stay with Medquist that long. I'm wondering, though, if there isn't some other change to go along with this. I've been expecting them to raise our hourly quota for a while. Maybe that's where they'll get us next, who knows.

Possibly it has been outsourced to overseas. - nm

Maybe I'm just dense, but what about mid-Dec? sm - Tink

It shows on the 2010 payroll schedule posted in MQ Central that the last pay period ends on 12/15, but on the schedule via MQ mail, it shows the first pay period starting 12/26. Has anyone heard when we'll be paid for the time in between, or did they send out a revised 2010 payroll schedule and I just didn't see it (I don't think I always get e-mails correctly on MQ mail)? Thanks in advance!! =)

maybe it's a 10-day vacation, unpaid of course - nm

I replied to that email - What?

[ In Reply To ..]
asking why we did not get notice of this change so people could plan around it and when are we going to be paid for the 10 days between 12/15 and 12/26. We will see if I get an answer.

Please keep us posted if you get an answer...Thanks! - Tink

extra pay day on 12/31 - WIMT

[ In Reply To ..]
I too questioned the 9-day gap between 12/16 and 12/25 and my CCM sent me an email that said we will get a full check on 12/25 (24th actually because of Christmas), a partial check on 12/31 covering the 9 days and then starting 1/14 we get paid every other week.

You would think Payroll would have sent this info along with the pay schedule. Either they think we are stupid to not realize the 9-day gap or honestly don't care that the MTs live paycheck to paycheck.

Thank you so much for the info! - Tink

I agree with you that they should have sent an explanation...just common courtesy. Seriously, we can't have been the only ones out there trying to figure out how we were going to pay the house payment, etc., with our checks being wonky!! =)

Happy Thanksgiving!!

UPDATE: Apparently there was an email sent - What?

[ In Reply To ..]
out, but obviously not to all, with more information to follow. My CCM called me today when she got my email and then forwarded me the email, Payroll System Conversion, explaining what is going on. ADP payroll system will be converted to the UltiPro payroll/HR system (no more ADP)effective the first of next year. Ask your CCM to forward you this email, or email me and I can copy it to you (don't know if it is allowed to be posted here). We will be paid for 12/16 to 12/26 on a separate check on 12/31/2010 and will have access to online pay stubs, just not with ADP.

it was explained in e-mail - read further down

Sorry, you are wrong, not explained - OHMT

Went back in and looked. E-mail says nothing, just has the new payroll schedule attached.

I hate being right all the time - sm

[ In Reply To ..]
well, I got an e-mail.

So where is the notification that this was being changed? sm - ververyoldMQMT

[ In Reply To ..]
In South region, we have received nothing in the way of notification this was changing. Not that I have a problem, but it would have been nice to send a MQCentral mail about it.

Also, since when was it changed that we have to send any report with blanks to QA???????!!!!! I thought it was 3 or more blanks.. So I take it this starts when??? That December pay period is certainly screwed up....

Pay dates sent in e-mail on MTCentral. NM - anon

I got an email stating the change...s/m - aw

If anyone wants to see it, IF I can get into it without MQCentral saying message deleted, I will send it to you, just email me. Hope this helps.

Well that is just hunky dory... sm - ververyoldMQMT

so, like i said i don't mind every other Friday pay day, but it would have been nice to have been given notice about it. NO EMAIL. I guess us oldies are not allowed to know. I too sent an email reply asking about the 10 days. Now I cannot get into MQCentral mail at all. That's great we will be getting a 9 day paycheck, because I was really frazzling over having to wait until Jan 14. all my bills have been set up to be due on the 25th and 10th. The 10th is where I pay my power bill and it cannot go past the 13th. Geez. why is it that there are some MTs in this company who are priviledged, even over those of us who have been here 18 yrs and have taken every pay cut and no insurance. I am loyal, and don't bash me, but Q why do u treat me like solyent Green....

Well, another day fighting back tears. Thought this paycheck would be a little better. WRONG. I have tried to be less anal about my reports, then I see all the posts about bad audits and get paranoid and go back to being anal. That used to be a good thing in this profession. Now I feel like I am between a rock and a hard place. If I take enough time to correct everything ASR screws up, my pay falls. If I let the noncritical things go, have to worry about aud ...

So, decided to rip the band-aid off early and check on my paycheck in Ultipro. After deducting my pto pay and using actual hours, production pay, Now at just over $8/hr.

I just started, but the date I got was today for payday, yet it is not in my bank. They told me I do not have to wait for direct deposit, that it is right off the bat (rather than waiting the usual two checks or so with any other place). Just wondering if I should make a stink if it really is payday since nothing was deposited. I wonder if it is because yesterday was a holiday. ...

I got an email from HR today that my husband was 'accidentally' added back on my insurance. Note that he has not been on my insurance for almost a year. How this happened I have no idea. That means my paycheck tomorrow will have about $400 deducted from it just for that error. The email basically said "Ooops, sorry about our mistake you will be reimbursed with *next* paycheck." That means a 2-week wait for their mistake. I am not desperate for the money (thank ...

MAJOR VENT. My paycheck from MQ was deposited into my account today and it just sent me into a panic. Pay days are NOT supposed to feel like this - they are not supposed to cause you to put your head down on your desk and cry. They are not supposed to be like this. For the first time EVER I won't be able to pay my rent. I'm a single mom, I've worked full-time with MQ for 14 years, I'm an MME (supposedly at the top of my career game) and I can� ...

I've been working on a couple new ESL's and I literally wanted to put my head down at some points and just cry.

Best early Christmas present I could have ever given myself! Now I can't say for sure that the new company I signed on with as an IC is going to be any better, but a girl can dream, can't she? At any rate, it will be different and will hopefully give me a more flexible schedule so that I can work on that totally new career of upscale cat furniture. I have not finished my prototype yet as hubby may be getting a new job too and we might be moving for this new job. ...

Has anyone elsed noticed that ASR sometimes "takes a break" on Fridays??? I was doing pretty good with my line count for the week, hoping to make a decent bonus tier for this last week before the new pay plan rolls out. Then, BOOM... nearly all reports are straight transcription this morning. Long op notes that I usually edit this time each day (and can get a very good LPH) I now have to type out. Bye bye bonus. ...
