August,,,only 5 months until Christmas - L&L


Posted: Aug 06, 2014

And we all know what Christmas means for all mmodal employees...

OUR ANNUAL PAY CUT!!!

Any guesses what it will be this year?  I'm betting on losing another 3 days of vacation and having SR pay cut to 4 cpl for everybody, even those grandfathered in at 6 cpl.  

At that point social security will be a no-brainer for me.

can hardly wait

Thanks . . - anon

For the voice of doom. Why borrow trouble? No one, that I know of, has a crystal ball to predict the future. I sure hope we don't take any more cuts but have to focus myself on getting my lines in and keeping my QA score up. I am trying to lighten up my thinking so I can get the stress level down in my life.

Christmas is early, I guess. I've just been 'gifted' with a schedule change I don't want. . . for the third time. Can I re-gift back to them? :)

Stress level - Rusty

Let me know how that works for you. I need to learn from you. Tired of taking BP meds and then coughing for an entire 2 hours after that. Stress, not me.................

STILL NO ALL TYPE CHECK FOR AUGUST 1-15
Sep 04, 2010

Still no check...was told it would be sent overnight Wednesday. Call never returned from the woman in payroll who was going to check on how it was sent. Today is Saturday. This is for work done from August 1st through August 15th, and then I'm expecting a second one for the rest of the month. I have worked for Proscript during the same time period, and I have received 2 paychecks from them on time and ZERO FROM ALLTYPE!  ...

Hello, I have been trying to get a job since I graduated last year from Kaplan University Online. I take the online test and fail some how everytime I do it.

Just an update...I'm still jumping through hoops for this paycheck.  Then I'll have a paycheck that should be mailed next week, also.  I'm wondering how long I'll have to wait for that one or if I will ever see either of these checks.  It's only around 300 combined, but that's 300 I need for bills...I have a family to take care of.... ...

Keystrokes Is Going To A "time Clock" System In August?
Jun 09, 2011

So, have you heard that Keystrokes is going to a "time clock" system in August?  If this really goes through, this may be the straw... I have put up with all the other stuff going on there.  I constantly help out on other accounts as well as getting my own work done.  But, if I have to punch a clock, when I have been able to flex for 4 years, I don't think I'm gonna do it!  First off, there is no way I can sit for 8 hours straight.  I get my work done in 4 hours or so and then ...

Been Gone From MQ For A Few Months Now

I've been gone from MQ for about 5 months now, working at the front desk at a local group of docs office.  I learned how to schedule patients and meetings,  take payments, do the office bills, and file claims and bill insurance for patients and I've got to say, I never gave a thought to much of the person working the front desk.  I have been yelled at, threatened, given dirty looks and was once even told that I was an "old, ugly hag".  All this usually happens when ...

Been Gone From Nuance For Several Months Now
Aug 14, 2013

I have to say the stress level went down almost immediately. I went on to be a CNA and though physically harder work, there is room for growth financially and moving up into another position. Not so with Nuance. Growth potential at this place was zero-more like they try to keep you held down as much as possible. I loved transcription when I started 10 years ago, but this company made me dread even looking at my computer. Good luck to all those who are still here. Prayers for you as you struggle ...

4 Months Notice For PTO
Mar 17, 2014

Can someone please tell me how 4 MONTHS NOTICE is insufficient for PTO?!  It would seem that as a manager your responsibility would be to assess and find coverage as required, and with that much advance notice you shouldn't have a terrible time doing that.  Besides, it's not like my shift is the one that's always hard up for extra help.  C'mon!  Don't act like I've put you in a pickle, you have 4 months to figure out a simple 5-day solution. &nbs ...

except to get worse, so I don't regret leaving.

I have done MT work my entire adult life and always thought I would do it until I retired because I found it interesting and challenging, but the profession has changed so much now that I hav ...
