I just filled out the survey. - I wonder if it

just goes directly into the trash, or if anyone actually reads it?
Survey - MTtoo
[ In Reply To ..]
Well, by the way they treat you, what do you think? I wouldn't waste my time. That is just smoke and mirrors to keep the MTs thinking they care or things are going to change and they probably will change, for the worse; as has been demonstrated over the past five years.
why would you wonder that... - last time...

they improved our insurance benefits tremendously and started contributing to our 401 again, and fixed the horrible email system they were using. I know this company is far from perfect, but they changed things from the last survey and I have no doubt the company analyzing the survey will give them accurate results.
But "show me the money" so I can actually fill - poor is me

my fridge and maybe buy a few Christmas presents. Benefits, 401 and fixing a mail system do not add to my bank account.
dont forget the amazing communication - we have been given
I had: _______ ischemic changes. I couldn't make out the word directly before (seriously slurring ESL).
The blank was filled in with "anicteric." ???? Is there such a thing as anicteric ischemic changes? I can't find reference this this anywhere.
I want to make sure before I try to reverse this. ...
people can be so stupid, or oblivious, to the fact that they have an over-abundance of MTs during the week that run out of work on a constant basis but, on the weekends, work is over-flowing to the tune of "help help help".
Can they not figure out that if they would cough up just a few more cents a line for someone to cover weekend shifts, and offer it IN HOUSE first, that this all could be eliminated? Of course, I don't know why it amazes me. These people never were in the tra ...
I was reading the newsletter....employees in Philippines with MM t-shirts and mugs filled with chocolate. What do we get? A big fat nothing, sitting here waiting for work to come in. I can't believe I actually went to school for this (many years ago). Actually, keep your mugs and t-shirts -- I would prefer a raise...and some WORK!! ...
If a doctor says something that a third grader would know is nonsense and the MLS leaves a blank, why does the QC person fill it in? We're supposed to use critical thinking skills, but yet they fill in something stupid when it's blatantly wrong.
Then, we get an email with all kinds of information regarding normal laboratory values and we are supposed to use critical thinking skills for all that and determine when it is normal or abnormal.
Oh, I'm still waiting for my MD degree t ...
Do they actually go into the chart like that? I'm sure nobody retypes the reports with the corrections in them, so how does that pass the Joint Commission's inspection? ...
Does anyone know how long it will take them to respond? Just curious, I am very interested in a few positions they listed open and am eager to hear if I qualify! ...
Got an e-mail from TransTech that the positions for the rad MT job posting on the Job Seeker's Board dated 3/6/2012 are filled, however, the posting is still listed here, so not sure what the real deal is. I'm sure someone from their company will see this post then remove the ad. But, I do wonder if they just don't want to hire and pay a good line rate for an experienced MT. If anyone else applied for this posting, did you also receive that e-mail? ...
I bought a computer that I used for work (100% work, nothing else). I know I file 4562, section 179, but I am having the hardest time trying to figure out where I am supposed to put the information. It's just the computer and nothing else. I read that I do not have to depreciate this, it falls under eligible property. Just confused where to put the info.
I'm filling out the forms by hand. I absolutely hate hate hate Turbo tax and two years ago H&R blo ...
Hi,
I am new to the independent contractor thing, but shouldn't a company that has "hired" you as an independent contrator have your SS and a 1099 filled out by you? Just wondering as it seems to me this is necessary and since it is not being done, it makes me wonder about this company that much more, espcially since others have stated they have not been paid by this company. I guess if they are not planning on paying me they don't need a 1099 or SS# huh? ...
I am interested in learning how many currently practicing MTs struggle to get their lines in due to their being "no work available."
Do you find yourself out of work and having to try to make up lines outside your usual schedule?
Only occasionally? Often? Every day? Seldom? Never happens?
Thanks everyone!Mary

to spell the abbreviation of subcutaneous? is is subcu or subcut? i have this argument every time with QA. could i get someone to help me please?
thanks much in advance!!!!

Just read through the survey without answering the questions. Waste of time! No matter how many of us answer it and regardless of what we say, after it is all over they will tell us that MQ employees love the company. This is just a way to try to placate us and make us think that our opinions count. You can all take turns flogging me if I'm wrong. ...
I am an MT who has been around for 14 years with this company and I have my gripes like all the rest of you. I took the survey and stuck it to them when it mattered. For example, when they ask if compensation encourages people to do their best, the obvious answer is "strongly disagree" right? When they ask if compensation is clearly tied to performance....again "strongly disagree." Whether our answers matter or not, it's our opportunity to vent our frustrations with ...
I had so much fun using words like despicable and abomination that I just couldn't help myself and filled it out 3 times. I expect when all is said and done they will tell us that the vast majority of responses were positive and almost everyone loves the company but at least I had a few minutes of sheer enjoyment. ...
Before the new pay rule game, I made 7.5 cents (3.75 cents for editing). Then when this new pay game started, I made less at 7 cents. However, I find lately I've been actually making noticeably more money with this pay game. You just got to keep quality and pending to QC under control. In fact, I think I now make a few hundred dollars more per month, if I keep it up, keeping quality up and QC pending down. I know some of you were actually paid 8 cents (4 cents for editing), so there is ...
For those who are comfortable sharing this info, what is the pay rate for VR (as opposed to straight typing) and what is the average amount of lines one can cover in an hour at MModal? Thanks for your help. ...
Question: How many MTs really need their jobs and how many just do it for a little bit of extra pocket $$$ (have someone else in the family who is the main breadwinner)? ...
Every time MQ sends out a survey they use it to justify a pay cut or cesspool or other "great" ideas. They twist the results of the survey to fit their agenda and then say- see the MTs agree that ASR is better or they are sick of running out of work. JMHO but I am not filling it out so they can use my answers to make my job worse than it already is. ...
