Is this DMTOK? About what?

I have been there since the beginning of this project - 9 weeks off around Christmastime, so this week to 2-week hiatus is nothing compared to that, though it's really not convenient. Don't worry, we will be back soon enough and going "balls to the wall" again.

Thank you for the reply. I just needed some reassurance. I can't tell you how much I love this job, but I also really need to work. I really want this to work out!

The work will be here soon. Try not to worry! But.... - Sm

You do know that this is just a temp job right? This project is lasting only until end of October.

you're welcome - devilsadvocate

Yes, THIS job is temp but we have been told several times there are others in the works, so hoping that for ScribeRight's sake and for OUR sake, they get more contracts to keep us busy for years to come!

If not, I have another job to supplement this, so I will pick up more from that one. But thanks for being so positive and taking the wind out of everyone's sails :)

Last I heard, we should have work through the first quarter of next year. I'm truly not worried about that part. We will get other contracts.

Where did you hear about work through next year? - I only heard there was work thru October

Did someone in the "powers that be" let that information spill?

I'm wondering too..... - DMT also

I've never heard of any guaranteed work beyond October. I'm sure they are looking for other contracts, and certainly hope they find them, but nothing has ever been guaranteed except this current contract (to my knowledge).

Also, since we are ahead and have been doing some work that was scheduled later in the year, I also wonder if that will move the October deadline up even more? Whatever happens, I took this job knowing it was temporary and could be gone soon, but I'm very happy with the company and hope they find more contracts soon.

I have seen a few posts from fellow DMTs on this board (and wish we had the chance to talk while working to ask questions of each other!) and wanted to ask a question of you here on the board. I have had to send a couple jobs to QA to ask about a med or allergy for which I haven't found a match. I've noticed the comments are less than complimentary. Are you finding that comments received from QA are more degrading or condescending rather than helpful? Or is it just me? ...

For those of you working as DMTs, are you starting to worry about the scheduled conference call? All of them, it seems have worked hard to be sure things would go well, and we would have work, but this lull is about to do me in. I want to hope for the best, but I am wondering if they are going to let some of us go since they overhired, or let us know the work will either not be coming as scheduled or not coming at all. I guess I am imagining the worst case scenario. What do you all think? ...
