MModal Gulag Is Open - Welcome! - <40Days

Posted: Apr 06, 2015

Minimum 1 hour OT is mandatory. If you don't comply you will be sent to Performance Management (PM). Further, you may be sent to the MModal Gulag for additional instruction possibly including waterboarding, bamboo shoots under your fingernails, whipping with a bamboo cane and/or sleep depriviation. You will not be able to eat or have restroom privileges.

You have been warned!

As soon as I read the Snarky E-Mail - I started sending out resumes

I have heard nothing, other than mandatory OT for the week, which isn't happening, BTW..

I am going out on a limb here - anony

Maybe the ones who received the e-mail are the ones who have not been doing the mandatory OT. Don't know but it's my take on the situation.

I don't like the 1 hour every night but don't want to be out the streets looking for something else.

Hobby Lobby in my area only pays $9/hr and Walmart the same. Don't know about Lowe's or Menards. I just know that I am making more than that now here at M-Modal. I am barely making it with these wages so sure cannot afford to go any lower.

Just my take, not substantiated by any supervisor.

I have worked for Walmart and trust me you wont get - treated any better

well, you sawed off your limb - I have been doing it and

still got the e-mail. It was POD Mistress BR's group.

Sorry - anony

[ In Reply To ..]
My HDSM (or POD mistress as you call yours) did not sent out that e-mail to me.

Did not mean to offend you.

I have been doing it for quite some time as well. It is becoming tiring sitting here for 9 hours or more a day. Hoping for some relief soon.

no, I'm sorry. - I was just irritated by the tone

Of the PODM's email. Sorry I snapped at you. I'm usually pretty mellow. :-)

Hey no problem - anony

[ In Reply To ..]
Believe me, I have received some e-mails from my PODM in the past which have made me blow my lid. Thank God I work at home. If I had been in an office, I am sure my language would have gotten me fired. HA! Sometimes they treat us like we are simple minded. I fondly remember the old days when we were treated like we were humans with a brain.

I do the MOT every time.

Maybe you haven't received the news but I have the email to prove it, with the PM threat. Other's in this thread have acknowledged the same as well in other treads.

Sounds like a good time for - Blue Flu!

I've never received a written threat, until today, that said if you don't comply with at least 1 hr. of OT you're on PM.

Ergo - GULAG!

document, document, document - that is all!!!!

I have come on this site for awhile, mostly because this is a place where everyone gets what you do and can understand what you're going crazy over. Try telling your neighbor the ESLs are getting to you today and you get what I mean. However, since I have become an MME (in October), this has become a not so friendly place. I love doing QA work. I have been in this field for 20 years and feel I can and do help MTs out. When I make a correction, it's to give the MT some feedback, ...

Anyone hear any rumblings yet about Open Enrollment? Last year at this time we were already sent emails to "get ready" for it...so far this year, nothing. I heard that other companies were making the spousal/partner "penalty" for not taking insurance was going to go up to $500! We are now paying $100/month...let's hope that won't be the case, as that would essentially be one of my paychecks. Wonder what surprises are in store for us. Maybe we won' ...

You all have it reversed for VR. Those of us that do the VR editing should be paid the hourly wage, not the QA people! We take this abysmal voice that comes in, turn it into something that can be understood, and is perfectlly fine for the patient's chart, but then you want QA to get a hold of it, pay them $12-15 an hour to make is a pretty report, hey who's doing all the work here! I want to be paid $12 to 15 an hour to fill in the blanks, put in commas, periods ...

I was on family UHC Choice and now being forced to MS HRA. My deductable went from 1500 to 6000!! Max out of pocket from 5000 to 20,000!! Instead of paying a $25/50/100 copay for my doctor/specialist/ER visits, its 30% after the outrageous deductable. But they cover routine physical 100% and they contribute $500...bah! Fuming. ...

I would like you to understand that I work because I have to, not because I want to. I was hired for a specific shift, yet there is no work on that shift. I have to flex sometimes up to 12 hours a day to get my required line quota or take a chance on not having benefits, please understand that I do have a life other than working for your company. My question I guess is why do you overhire? I know this is a 24/7 business but if you did not hire so many people then the work ...
