I doubt they work weekends, they get all their holidays off - and ours!

[ In Reply To ..]
And, they get all the parties for rebranding, with T-shirts and cups, and we always get NOTHING.

According to PTO policy, they will - Just Sayin

"formally approve or deny the request at least 35 days prior to the holiday." So Thanksgiving should be done by now. If you don't have an answer, I would go up the chain of command.

Wonder if the CCMs know this!! Mine waits until the last minute. - nm

HEARD FROM MY CCM - Here it is!

[ In Reply To ..]
CCM emailed and stated it is time to put in your Thanksgiving requests. If you had it off last year, probably will not get it off this year and if you want off, need to put in your request now.

Oh good grief... LOL. They never have a clue what's going on. Everyone put in - for it a month ago. NM

Submitting PTO Requests For No Work Available
Aug 30, 2012

My manager is always sending out emails that we are required to submit a PTO request (pain or unpaid) for situations when there is no work available in order to account for all of our hours. I don't understand why we need to do this. I put no studies available on my time card when I clock out when I run out of work. I'm not asking for time off and so don't see why I should have to put in a request for time off when there is no work. I would be more than happy to work during these ...

SALARIES OF CCMs

Looking For Information About CCMs

I've been thinking it might be a good transition to make but I don't know anything about what they do really, except ignore a lot of emails. ...


RE: CCMs Getting Sacked.

since I never could get the "new improved" email to work, so I don't know if my CCM got the boot or not.  The account I work on had at least 10 people providing daily work updates, some with only the mysterious name of MedQuist North.  The account was/is almost always behind and they are constantly requiring overtime.  Always made me wonder if any of those folks did any of the actual work other than sending out how many reports were available.  Probably for the best that ...

Reversal Requests --why Do I Waste My Time?

Sent in request, my TM sent in on for next level.  Well, the powers above decided my placement of period and/or comma impacted the integrity of the record and should be scored as incorrect verbage rather than punctuation. The 1 point for verbage as opposed to .25 for punctuation makes that short report a fail.  Give us a frigging break.  Don't know why I waste my time.  Just when I calm down and think "working here isn't so bad", something l ...
