Posted: Oct 14, 2012

Aha - so I'm not the only one..... - Never been there before

Happened the other night - quite a stretch from the midwest to way up the east coast. Only one report tho and then back to the regular ones. Must be they're testing us out. Never been swimming around in this before. Wonder what's going on.
My North CCM was canned but - sm

Not getting anything other than my usual. Keeping fingers crossed. My CCM and QC were "moved" off my accounts and onto others, according to what she says.
When they were moved, did you get TCM? - fasttype

Did you get the info, like Amy Amick said you would, notifying you by corporate e-mail first that your CCM and QC would move, and you would have a new TCM? Do you know who TCM is? So far, I've heard nothing.
Ours from the West has (thankfully) gone back to being another MME like the rest of us poor mortals. I found her e-mails to be bossy, snippy, condescending and picky to the point of absurdity. The frosting on the cake was the recent e-mail that said MT's are to be held at fault if the doctor makes a mistake on a lab value, med dosage, etc. Some people get a little taste of power and become unbearable. I, for one, bid her a joyful farewell because ...
If your bob never has work, ask to move to the north. We even got an e mail from the head of work routing, stating they need everyone to work. That never happens. If you need work and are constantly out, ask to move. ...
I have noticed something weird going on with the work flow. Haven't run out of work in quite a while and have stayed in BOB but yesterday and today have been everywhere and now out of work. Wonder what is going on. Anybody else? ...
Has anyone noticed how the North TSM is never responding to emails, PTO, important questions, etc. I'm about ready to contact this Joel, the guy above her. You ask for PTO or time off period, and she lets you know 36 hours before the fact if you're lucky. Her initials are JL. I so do not want to go above her, but this is so getting out of control. ...
I need the money. :-( I actually switched 2 days later in the week for Monday and Tuesday because I am actually taking a short vacation, first in a couple years. I am PT, so no PTO for me. Total bummer.
This after a keep working OT email. ...
I think I've been up too long as I was reading the directions for text expansions and dictionaries for this "new" north region being created.
Directions indicates loggin into DocQscribe use new company code and then proceed with copy the above.
I don't ever put the company code in when I log into DocQscribe. I only enter it sometimes when logging into DocQmanage.
Has anybody already logged in with the new company code and downloaded the tex ...
Seems to me that the "new and improved" North area was a ploy to dump us all back in the cesspool. In 8 hours, I had only one job from my primary (which is not off-shored). I just LOVE reading one CP after another! ...
Was the company # changed for looking up the backlog when the north area combined? I haven't been able to access it since. If so, does anybody have the new # to input? CCM still hasn't gotten back to me yet and I want to check the backlog. ...
Can anybody tell me how the backlog looks now? I got locked out and need reset, however, CCM is on vacation and haven't been able to get in contact with the fill-in CCM to fix it. Thanks ...
"If you have no work, change your shift" ain't gettin it. I have worked all of them and still sitting here for hours with NJA with crazy rambling ESL's from the cesspool sandwiched in between.
Happy Monday!
...
Besides getting NJA or jobs coming in 1 at a time, now I'm getting very few jobs from my primary. It's a big account, seldom ran out of work before, and a "do not off-shore" account.
What's going on??
...
CCM said if we're running out of work, we should change our schedules. I work a split shift and never ran out of work before. I suspect there are a ton of newbies all working during the day at the same time. &n ...
hope you are applying for unemployment. MQ is EVIL for not just laying MTs off (when the off-shore more work, which is another form of evil)...but the least they could do is have mercy and do lays offs so MTs can get UI while finding another job. I despise them so bad.
I'm in the West and still have work as we speak, but I am just waiting for the axe to fall. I'm sure the same thing is going to happen to us next. But I will force their hand. I refus ...
I found this on company website under "executive, frequently asked questions, employee FAQs, and then scrolling down the page... Q: What happens with the CBay line of business?
A: CBay retail has effectively been rolled into the North Region under Barbara Allen and Shaw Rietkerk and is operating as an integrated part of our organization. This announcement has no effect on those operations, other than those former CBay customers will now benefit greatly from the combined company assets and ...
Anybody notice this. Was she the one let go? I had an email from her yesterday, not a word all day. Very strange, she usually sent at least 2 updates a day. ...
Ok, this is getting down right ridiculous! They obviously do not have enough work for all the people they have. Why cant they just lay us off? I cant keep signing on each day to nothing. Where is there work in this company? How do some of you get one account and consistent work and I have access to every account in the BOB and have nothing!
I guess it is another 2 weeks with no food in my house. ...
and my supervisor's BOB has been pretty much empty for really the last month or more. I have had maybe 10 jobs of my primary, secondary and so on accounts that Im familiar with for at least 2 weeks. When I do get jobs from these accounts a lot of them have been hard to hear (background noise and such), some of the ASR reports have been horrible with a lot of added words and whole sentences left out. This is crazy.
Then tonight I check the back log and there are 2,000 ...
I dont know how it happened, a miracle, a ton of prayers, just got lucky, but there is actually work when I signed on this morning!
I feel like I struck the jackpot! ...
