Moderator question - Sunshine State MT

Posted: Jan 18, 2010

Hi Moderator,

I posted an answer to someone on the Newbie Board on 01/17/2010, basically just congratulating the person who just finished school.

I received an email because of my above posting from Tonya (mitchemconsulting@msn.com) saying she MAY be hiring in the future and pay is low but to send my resume.

I wasn't looking for a job, just congratulating the poster.

Do you know how this Tonya person got my email?

Just curious.

Thank you for your time!

Probably clicked the button "Reply by Email" at the - bottom of each post

I've done that; it's pretty easy to mistake e-mail and reply - when youre going quickly. Can the buttons be chan

My concern is that it was not from the poster. - Sunshine State MT

I don't mind getting an email from a poster. It was from a MTSO that read my response to the poster. She just graduated and wanted to know if anybody knew companies that hired Newbies.

I replied and told her I personally did not but congratulated her and told her to hang in there.

The email was from an MTSO that read the post and said she had a POSSIBLE position in radiology. She PREFERRED to hire Newbies, not to exploit them, but to "train them in the way I prefer my reports to be completed for my clients" and that the pay was LOW but all MTSOs are low -- is what the email said.

Any hoot, I sent it to the moderator.

Have a good evening everyone!

Please forward the email to me. SM - Moderator

MTSOs should be posting advertisements for their job ads, not trying to recruit behind the scenes via email.

Be wary of any employer telling you up front that they have low pay.

I forwarded the email to you moderator. Thanks! - Sunshine State MT

If you clicked "Reply by email" and an MTSO answered, that means...sm - ??

[ In Reply To ..]
that she posted that "she got a job."
Sounds like an advert for her MTSO.

I am not sure if you are aware, but when i replied by e/m to a msg, the advertizing was in the way to where i could only see the right half of the text box in which I was writing. Hope that can be fixed. Thanks. ...

When posting a response to the OP, it could come directly under their post and not go to the bottom of the postings in that particular list? When a new post comes in, could it be highlighted at the top of the page like it was before? I think people actually like seeing those there so if of interest they can respond then. I know I did. I guess this is here to stay but gosh, with my old eyes I am having trouble seeing the cryptic letters to put in when I post something which means I sometimes ha ...

Moderator, I am fortunate enough to be a thriving MT and I would like to be able to hold conversations with my colleagues. We don't have coworkers so this board is the closest thing to it and I would like to be able to discuss our advantages, disadvantages, compensation, etc., with the closest I'll come to a coworker without being abused. I don't want to be called insensitive, a liar, a suit, etc., just because I am still a successful MT and would like to share it.&nbs ...

We will not be creating a new board for "positive posts only." You have the choice as to what posts you want to read. If a post is too negative for you, simply do not read it. Everyone has a right to their opinion. I will continue to monitor for foul language, name calling, etc., but will not be trying to decipher what is too positive or too negative for your liking. ...

Please note the posts in re: KEYS THAT PLEASE. This company *may* be legitimate but they are requesting as part of a test process files up to 32 minutes long, that I believe are *also* current files. A lot of newer MTs (and even not so new) may not realize this can be a red flag for scammers - people looking to get a backlog cleared up for 'free' under the guise of hiring for a true position. Could you consider posting a warning to all posters to be careful about t ...

How did my employer know I posted on this board? I was sent an email through the company's email system responding to a question I posed here. How did they know my name? Are our email addresses being given out? I did not respond by email or in any way indicate my identity. Is this not an anonymous board? What's going on? If I'm no longer anonymous, how can I feel safe posting here? ...

I looked at all the forums and read all the primary posts (not the replies) and cannot find if the Moderator has addressed this, so if I missed it, sorry. If not, does anyone know if the posts that are falling off Page 1 will be brought back when all the updates are complete and the archives are available? I was looking for something that was posted on the first or second day when the new upgrade had just been done, and realized that what I had posted on the 8th (the day the upgrade ...

Hello, I posted a question a few wks ago asking why I could not see links that I included in my post. You mentioned filling out the Contact Us form and include the link and describe the issue. I did that but did not receive a reply. Then I replied to my original post stating that I never heard back, and did not receive a reply to that either. Can you please address this issue? I would like to know what is happening to the links in my posts. Thank you. ...

This is to the moderator: I posted a note about an hour ago, and when I came back the message was gone. It was about e-mails being misinterpreted. It had no hate in it, didn't mention any names, just wanted to talk about it. It had e-mail in the subject line. If you know where it went, or why it was deleted, please let me know, and thanks! ...

Bringing this to the top because it has gotten a ways down now...but could we please have a board for Happy MT's where we can go and talk with our "coworkers" without being abused? Even in the thread below requesting this, we have been told we are being insensitive for talking about being successful. This is getting quite ridiculous and disgusting. Can we please, please, please have "somewhere to go" to have a real discussion without name calling and abusiveness? The ...

is there a way to fix the search feature to where you can search for short terms? Right now, it won't let you search for terms like 'QA' or 'MDI' etc. because they're too short. It also limits you to one page of results. The Google search box we used to have worked much better. TIA. ...

I'm not sure where to post this... The resume bank is a great resource, but I wish it was a little more flexible. For example, the section where you describe what kind of work you're looking for is restricted to choices on the drop-down menu. Some of us wear different hats and are looking for IC work if we can get it and/or an employee position if it's a good one. So multiple choices or even free text might be more suitable. Just a thought. Thanks! ...

for the Job Seekers board to include a few more pieces of information? * The line rates (both speech and traditional) * The definition of their line, i.e., 65 characters including spaces, etc. * The platform name It sure would be nice to be able to know this minimum information before we all waste our time testing as most of them will not take questions until after you test. Thank you for considering this! ...
