I think I work for the Grinch...no holiday wishes - MT


Posted: Dec 31, 2014

Not expecting any kind of a Christmas bonus, but no general Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas or Happy New Year e-mails, no Christmas card, nothing at all this year.  I need to get my energy and enthusiasm about getting out of this line of work back! That is my one and only New Year's resolution, to leave medical transcription in the past.  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you hard-working transcriptionists out there! :)

It'll be the best New Year's resolution you - ever made! Good luck! :)

Thank you!:) Now the tricky part...Getting the motivation back to leave transcription. Staying in this job for so long has left me living paycheck to paycheck, so now with a broken down car, I have to put off my job search for a little bit until I have enough money to have it fixed. Then I'll be on my way trying to find an outside job and getting things in order to start school. In the meantime, I'm going to try to look locally (jobs are few and far between in this town).

Well Wishes
Feb 09, 2012

I am not a religious person so I didn't want to be hypocritical and go on the prayers request board; hence, I am here to get hopeful wishes and good vibes sent my way.  I'm trying to get out of the MT field (like many others).  Thus far, I've had no luck returning to my prior career field and am concerned that no one wants to give me the chance because I've been out of it for so long.  Which, really I don't blame them.  I came close to getting one job ...

Bowing To Physician's Wishes
Jun 24, 2011

Just got an E-mail from our QA person stating that a physician is complaining that we are not sending CC's to the PCP that he gives at the beginning of the report.  Now, I do realize that this information has been placed into the Client Profile under specific instructions for this physician, but sometimes when you are working on the same facility and feel comfortable you stop looking at the CP for every single MD.  This is not a facility I type on often, and apparently it is not j ...

Holiday Pay...sm
Dec 30, 2011

Here's the deal...my company says if/when you work a holiday, they will give you the equivalent hours in PTO to use later on (you work 8, you get 8 PTO).  I checked with my state's DOL, and they said absolutely incorrect. You must be an exempt salaried employee for them to do this. They must pay regular employees cash money. The DOL also said that unless the company is a licensed health care facility in my state, which they are not--they only contract with ...

Holiday Pay -
May 26, 2014

I generally work every holiday, and most of the time the work is rather low, but today it has been rather brisk.  Thinking that I might actually make a decent wage today, I was trying to remember how our holiday pay was set up or if Memorial Day was counted as one of their "holdidays."  After searching my own files as well as ENRICH I finally found it:  It is.  We get the enormous increase of.... wait for it....  25%!  Wow.  So, for editing that's just ar ...

Holiday Pay Differential
Nov 27, 2009

Last holiday (Labor Day) I was paid a differential.  It is usually time and a half so going by your base you will see an additional line on your paystub of holiday lines:  ex.  if your base rate is 0.08 you will see holiday pay 0.1200 x 1000 lines.  As far as I know, we have not received any notification that we do not get holiday pay.  ...

If You Don't Have PTO?  Does That Mean You Have To Work The Holiday?
May 28, 2010

Hi.  My CCM sent out an email saying that work loads were going to be low because of the holiday and that we could take PTO for Monday if we wanted.  My question is what if you don't have PTO?  Does that mean you have to work the holiday or can you still request it off and just not get paid for it?  I would ask CCM but she said she would be very busy and wouldn't be able to keep up with emails. Thanks ...


Holiday Pay On Monday, 07/05/10
Jul 26, 2010

I have always gotten paid time-and-a-half for holiday pay on the Fourth of July, which is one of Medquist's holidays (or so it is listed as and always has been), and was told by CCM we would be paid time-and-a-half for that Monday's work done since even though it wasn't the fourth, it is when it is nationally celebrated.  However, on today's paycheck I did not get any holiday pay at all!!!  I went back several years to check and I always got paid this way for w ...

So How Much Of That Holiday Pay Did Y'all Make?
Jul 05, 2013

Did all of you have a wonderful holiday with your family or did you get to sit in front of your computer all day waiting for work to come in?  If the latter, then here's a suggestion. On Webclock punch in when you started waiting and punch out at the end of your shift, unless by some small miracle you got enough work to make more than minimum wage for your shift.  It's legal, it's truthful timekeeping and they must pay you for it.  This will at the ve ...
