third shift employees - how do you do it

a job opening. Even the company I work for says we are getting more work but it will be more towards the afternoon and evening. I don't do well in the afternoon and evening. By that time (around 4 o'clock) I start to give out. I am tired and just don't do well. I do much better in the morning after resting all night. What gives with this? It never used to be this way. We always had work throughout the day actually and now every com ...

can anyone tell me if MModal still has shift differential for night shift? I know they used to ...

I was just curious about what employees thought of Nuance on Glassdoor. You read several US employee opinions and they reflect the morale listed on MTStars. Scroll further down and read the opinions of the transcriptionists from India. What a difference. They are highly satisfied with their jobs and most have been working with Nuance for 6 to 7 years. The US transcriptionists are very sad!! What a difference..... ...

I've been offered an in-house MT position that I am not passing up. It is night shift 10 pm to 6 am. I've never worked a night shift ever. How should I transition into working nights? Anyone have any tips for working this shift? ...

Thinking of going back FT and quitting my current day job, but it isn't always easy to get on days. (I know the work flow tends to be spread out a little thinner day shift.) ...

Saw the ad elsewhere. Are these companies nuts?! I hope nobody takes that pay. That's equivalent to 1 cpl as an employee with benes FOR QA WORK! I get so frustrated reading some of these ads with such horrible pay. ...

I was wondering if it's really worth it to work the 3rd shift? Does the additional CPL really make that much of a difference. Does the workload stay steadier during that time? I've been offered a 3rd shift part-time job, but just don't know if it's worth revamping my entire day to work this late. Would anybody working this shift let me know how it works out as far as sleep, daytime errands, etc.? ...

I see job ads for First Shift, Second Shift, etc., and modified shifts, and I am not sure exactly what periods of time these are. I figure they are specific hours of the day - like day, swing, graveyard shifts - but what are the hours, generally? I have only worked as an IC with TAT. I am considering applying for some of the employee status jobs but need to clarify what these shifts are. Thank you. ...

I thought I just got booted but logged back in no jobs will load so this means OOW.. already.. I just logged on for my shift.. NOT GOOD AND NOT HAPPY!!!! I believe I am in the South region. ...

wage. this is a dream job! ...

Would anyone happen to know which company has a 2nd shift besides MModal or Nuance? I see a lot of ads for 1st or 3rd, but due to family obligations I need 2nd shift. Straight typing or speech - MT or QA (have done both). Thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction. ...

Has anyone applied for these jobs? She has had the ad for quite some time I see up there. Does anyone know the name of the company? I am looking for something part time, but don't know if I should even bother. ...

Totally unhappy with current company, but do love my shift. Most jobs advertised are for 2nd and 3rd shift. Anyone know of companies that would hire for very early morning or possible split shifts? Too old at this time to think about trying night shift, but could do some evenings. Don't mind weekends at all. Any info helpful. TIA ...

I was just curious if there is any correalation between working 2nd shift and being unable to get to sleep at night? I have been having trouble sleeping lately and wondering if it could be due to the fact that I have been staying on later typing? Wondering if its making it harder for me to sleep because its taking so long for my brain to unwind? Anyone else have this problem? Advice appreciated. Thanks! ...

Is there a shift that is better when working with Nuance? ...

About 1/3 of those 100% QA reports were done by ILPs. Total average earnings per hour: a little over 4 $, but I will be paid at my state's minimum wage. Before my in-house hospital job was outsourced to an MTSO that kept the work in the country for 2 years and then sent it to India, I was being paid 19 $ an hour and also had great benefits and PTO. When did this "profession" turn into a minimum wage job ? (actually, half of minimum wage if ...

I have been working third shift for about three months and am still having some trouble getting used to it. My question is do you work your shift then go to sleep or do you stay up until later in the afternoon and then sleep until your shift starts. I work a 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. and am trying to find the best way to be able to stay awake during my shift. I do not drink coffee. I have tried some of those energy drinks that are sugar free, which helped some, just now wond ...

I am in old SA3. Is this happening elsewhere? ...

Does anyone ever get NJA working 3rd shift with the Q? ...

many of us will be reassigned to 2nd or 3rd shift. If you are assigned and do not comply, you will be considered as having resigned. Hmm... sounds like a way to lay off/fire people in a way they won't be eligible for unemployment. Can't get unemployment for quitting (resigned)! CCM says we have trouble with going out of TAT during 2nd & 3rd shift, mostly on the weekend. Hmm.... I work 2nd shift and I have barely had any work from the primaries - mostly helper accounts and even had ...

I'm considering taking a 3rd shift job, which I've never done before. Any suggestions on making the transition to working 3rd shift from days, staying awake without depending on too much caffiene, getting enough sleep during the day, etc. I also have a puppy that will be at home with me during the day and am wondering if he needs to stay up with me at night so he will sleep during the day also. I would appreciate any and all advice. TIA. ...

If you work a split shift, what are your hours and how is it working for you? I'm thinking of going that route but I'm not 100% sure. ...

Getting bonus incentive would be nice, but at this point just having any work at all would be a welcome change. Haven't had any jobs my entire shift plus ran out on my last shift. Geez.....I hate incentive weekends. Is anyone else having the same problem? ...

Hello everyone! I was wondering if anyone who works or has worked third shift in the past could share with me any advice they might have. I have always worked first shift, but I have been offered a really terrific position working third shift on the weekends, and I am finding myself wanting to give it a try. I know it would be a difficult transition at first, and I would need to focus on taking good care of myself. If anyone has any advice, I would so greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advanc ...

Have been fortunate and always worked first shift (weekends included). Now it looks like those are hard to come by and may have to take a 2nd shift or third shift. Once you do, is it easy to get on days in a year or two with most companies or are you locked in for life? ...

So sorry for the rant, but I am so tired of companies wanting us all to cover third shift, but don't want to pay anything extra when we do and if they do it's something like a quarter of a penny, what in the world is that? I know I shouldn't complain, but this shift is HARD to work, especially when you have little ones. Just a little frustrated tonight, and I know there are people who have it worse than I do, but I don't have anywhere else to vent. Thanks ...

I think MQ, Spheris, Transcend care more about that you are working your shift than any errors. I was so so tired (cause I"m moving) yesterday, I couldnt keep my eyes open and had to take an hour break to sleep. When I came back to work, they dug up all kinds of stupid errors I did just to show me who the boss is. They all do it. It keeps you in line. ...

I searched the new site high and low and nothing states that we get shift diff still. It was like .005 cents for some hours and .01 for others at night. Thanks guys. ...
