So fed up with Landmark. - sm
Posted: Apr 23, 2014
This dragging along with no work is getting old FAST. Being told new accounts are going to start then week after week after week...NOTHING. They're not following fair labor laws AT ALL. I guess I'll lodge a formal complaint with the DOL and file for unemployment. I don't know what else to do at this point.
File for unemployment!!!! - nm

To Fed Up - CJ
[ In Reply To ..]How long have you been with them?
Did you get the paperwork? Someone already filed. - me in MT
[ In Reply To ..]I received mine last week. I haven't decided if I should fill it out yet. It's anon, I hope.
I sure wish they'd send me the paperwork - Depressed
[ In Reply To ..]I've been making below minimum wage for a year now. :(
And when you DO get work - it is clinics
[ In Reply To ..]Very boooooooooooooring and unproductive as they are short, no demographics, just awful. I thought I was hired for acute care... yes, it is work but OMG it is dreadful.
Here's what I don't get - sm
[ In Reply To ..]You can look up on line how big these hospitals are... how come they are not busier? Where is the work going? Hard to believe it is really that slow so much of the time. Anybody know?
That's a good question - sm
[ In Reply To ..]The account I am on is a huge hospital system in a large city. I do know that it is an overflow account, but for the past 6 months the work has nearly disappeared. I'm not sure if all their accounts are overflow or not, but it just doesn't make sense how the work just dries up.
Because they are overflow - sm
[ In Reply To ..]LM is notorious for being the "overflow helper". They get accounts when the hospital is short staffed on MTs and the hospital is actively seeking employees also. LM hires MTs for this "super busy" account and the MT for LM starts out with an incredible amount of work. Meanwhile, the hospital also hires, thus having the work dwindle and dwindle to nothing. I am not sure why LM doesn't just TELL their MTs this. Why keep them in the dark pretending that it will pick up.
Kidding right? Because people would bolt, kinda common sense. - NM
[ In Reply To ..].
At least when directly asked - they could have the courtesy
[ In Reply To ..]Not to flat out deny it. If it's overflow then it is... just say so and get on with it. All this shuffle and jive is annoying, to say the very least.
Shuffle and Jive??? - what does this mean?
[ In Reply To ..]What does this comment about shuffle and jive mean?
ahh...it means one excuse after another - nm
[ In Reply To ..]x
Either one excuse after the other or giving people the - run-arounds..SM
[ In Reply To ..]I knew what she meant by shuffle & jive.
Not necessarily - sm
[ In Reply To ..]If LM would TELL MTs that they are overflow only and then just move the MTs around to help out on different accounts, then it seems like it would be much better for both LM and the MTs, rather than hiring constantly, training constantly and having tons of MTs bad mouthing them.
There is lots of work on my accounts at L - Depressed
[ In Reply To ..]In the last couple of weeks they have even asked for help. I wonder why they don't let you switch or just help out temporarily on another account. Makes no sense.

I would like to apply but don't want to waste my time if there isn't enough work in the first place. Thanks for your help. ...

is pretty much a bitch-fest, at least it is some sort of contact with other MTs... oh excuse me... MLS. I have never worked at a place where there was so little contact, no feedback, no sense of teamwork. Yes, too much oversight with TLs hovering over you is oppressive and you may say... that's okay, I'd like that, just leave me alone to do my work... but really, it's tough to feel totally isolated, anyone agree? ...

I worked for Landmark a while ago. Sorry for all the problems the current MTs are having. Have the owners come up with a solution about the insurance issue? Just a thought, but you might try calling your local state representative's office and asking about COBRA and/or an insurance plan run by your state that covers children. You may also have a county agency that can give you information about insurance coverage. Of note, the COBRA payment is usually the ent ...
