My Head Is Swirling! - MT2020
Posted: Mar 29, 2010
So much going on! Got an e-mail Friday that all jobs, regardless of how many blanks it has in is, is going directly to the customer. Got another e-mail about Benchmark, and I have no clue what that is all about. Not certified, don't want to be certified, so if it has anything to do with that - and we HAVE to from what I am gathering. Then they train me for full DQS accounts, and there is never any work on those accounts. My primary was supposed to go SR in January, and no one knows when that is gonna happen. Oh, and did I forget the regular audits? No one told us when they were gonna start, how often they were gonna be done, and thank God I haven't heard anything about them because I'm so self conscious lately about my work its unreal, so no news is good news. They want us to be right the first time, but we all have different titles (MTs, MMEs, QA). Don't you kinda NEED QA? I mean.......Okay, if they are trying to just make us quit, they should know we're not gonna just quit. I need my job, don't know about everyone else. Get really frustrated at times, but grateful overall to have it. But all this stuff is just crazy do deal with. Oh, and the full DQS accounts, you have a pool you can get work from, I think, no one really knows or is wililng to tell me. So you have to learn account specifics for SEVERAL accounts, and you're supposed to be right the first time???? Now these accounts are listed somewhere as my secondary, I can be asked to type for them anytime, and I don't even know them. Can you say pissed off customer calling talking smack about a specific MT with my initials?
I'm rambling and I know I am, but its just like, what next. I wish they would just let me go sometimes. Like they are trying to set me up to fail. Why would they do that? Isn't it better to have MTs who are utilized to their full potential with what they are best at, instead of throwing them here and there? I'm very confident that I am good at what I do, but learning new doctors, dialects (sp) and accounts with so much expected of you is suicide. Forced suicide.
Aghhhhhhhh
It's what they want...everything to go to India. - mrs.krabs
[ In Reply To ..]Just wait until the hospitals start squawking. I can't imagine the university hospital account I used to work on accepting their crap work. Shame on MQ for treating their American ILP's like dirt. Shame on the American hospitals for awarding contracts to MQ and CBAY!

I read EVERYDAY about ppl on this board having no jobs at the Q, not being able to contact their CCM or RTL to get work.

I'm an MME, and in editing reports these past few weeks I'm noticing a huge number of gender mix ups in the reports I'm seeing. In some reports, it almost seems to toggle back and forth from he/she/him/her, etc with absolutely no consistency. It seems to be an ASR issue. I'm not sure why it's happening but what I AM noticing is that a lot of MTs aren't catching it. If I am the MME for your report, I will always correct them while I'm fil ...

Immediately I deleted the email, shook my head and went on looking. What amazes me even more is that these people/companies who offer these horrible wages generally act like they are doing you a favor!! Sad, so very sad .... ...

There is good reason that these ladies sound a little negative. It is not about you, your initiative, or your dedictation. They do know what they are talking about, but they did not even begin to explain to you why, probably not enough room or time! This industry has changed drastically. You can not believe the ads you read about being an MT, great money, work your own hours, train in 2-4 months, blah, blah, blah. None of that is true. This has become a low in ...

Banging My Head Against The Wall

I keep getting dinged for comma usage, and I'm not one to overuse them, though I fully support the use of an Oxford comma. I am old school, and I've been taught the following about commas 1) They go before a conjunction when what could be complete sentence follows. 2) They do not go before or after (unless there is a strange circumstance, i.e, "indeed" or some such wording thrown in) a conjunction w/o a complete sentence following it. My hospitals are "modified ver ...
Head On The Chopping Block Again

I failed a quality audit. I have 3-4 weeks to confess my sins, repent and start bleating their praises. Interestingly, I just got a letter from my MModal life insurance that says it was canceled and is addressed "Dear terminated employee." A prophecy of things to come? Still, I find it oddly depressing. How does MModal manage to birng me down after so long? You would think I would be totally immune to it by now. I know all the logical defenses: ...
