Just logged off for the last time! - Done!


Posted: Jun 12, 2015

After 15 years with this company, I clocked out for the final time, gave my notice yesterday afternoon, and it feels so good.

At the age of 49, I want you all to know, you are never too old to find something new.  I found a job with the Federal Govt.  It takes time, but be patient and apply for anything that sounds interesting to you, you'd be surprised at how many jobs there are available that you are qualified to do.  I have even found some transcription jobs available in some states.

While I am most happy to be leaving, I am also sad.  Sad to leave a profession that I have loved, but sad that a company could treat a loyal employee so poorly.  After going through skin cancer, suffering a tib-fib fracture and DVT, 5 procedures all within 5 weeks, to have a company say if I go on short-term disability I may not have a job to come back to or if they do let me come back, it may not be at the same pay (I'm currently at the highest rate), is just dispicable.  Not to mention they had no problems with me working while I was on all sorts of pain killers.  I decided then and there I was done.  It took me a year, but I was patient and found a job that was right for me.

I wish you all well and encourage you to go to www.usajobs.gov, and explore what might be available in your area.  It costs nothing to apply.  Its worth it, you're worth it!

Happy for you! - lovemydane

I wish you good health and happiness in your new endeavors! I have also been with MM for 15 years. The first few years were tolerable and even pleasant with the supervisors that hired me. They started quitting or getting laid off within 5-6 years of my hiring and it has gone downhill since then.

Good luck to you and your family!

Congrats! - ex-MM

I have tried for years to get a federal job, no dice. You are lucky, my friend!!

Are you going to be working from home with your new job? - anon

No, but eventually once I have more time under my belt in what I am doing, I hope to transfer to a job where I can work from home. They do exist with the Gvt. I will not be working holidays or weekends anymore either, and will get PAID time off.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! CELEBRATE!!!!!!!!!! NM - busyandbroke

If anyone knows of a hospital, clinic, or large practice offering remote full-time or part-time employee positions, I would really appreciate an email.  I have the sudden need to help support a family member long term (in addition to myself) and really need to find a long-term remote employee position for the stability.  Yes, I watch all the various employment sites and even individual hospital sites, but I was hoping that maybe, just maybe someone who works for a hospital that does th ...

Overtime Because Of The Time Clock Time Zone Change?
Feb 06, 2011

It has been inconvenient, and maybe a bit confusing at times, to check my time card hours for my shift as, because of my time zone, part of my hours show up on the next day because I work 2nd shift. I wonder if I will get overtime for yesterday, even though I did not work overtime. I had to start work several hours early because of maintenance, so all hours were completed before the hour my hours start showing up on the next day. Fine. But the last couple hours of yesterday show up as today, ...


Anybody Else's Actual Time Worked Not Match Clocked Time?

Ever since they have changed Schedule Source and now it has a display called today's activity with "actuals" hours, this has not matched the hours shown with the time clock punches and is less than the hours according to the clock punch. The difference adds up to a significant amount over time. I am really suspicious about being jypped paywise. ...


MQ Rehire Policy For Part Time To Full Time
Apr 09, 2011

I worked for MQ full time and then went to part time last year, before finally quitting altogether because of health problems. I seem to remember an obscure policy that if you were full time and then went to part time, you could not go back to full time for a period of at least 1 year.  Can anyone verify that for me? IF, and this is a big IF, I were to go back to work for MQ, I would need to be full time. ...

Optiscript Part Time To Full Time
Nov 19, 2011

Does anyone care to share that if you are hired at optiscript part time will they let you change to full time easily? I know they are a small company and do not over hire so I do not know how easily this could be done.  I am thinking of cutting down to part time at my current employee so I can work part time elsewhere and eventually just leave my current employee once I see how the land lays elsewhere.  Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated :) ...

Change From Full- Time To Part- Time.
