New TSM in North. Emails hinting at having to change - from day schedules. Anyone planning

A couple of weeks ago, my TSM sent an email about a mandatory conference call, then nothing for a couple of weeks. Then this week, she says she is going to call us with a "short agenda" during this slow time. I can only speculate, as I have not gotten a call yet and work 2nd shift, that she is going to ask for schedule changes and not ask for volunteers like before. Maybe she thinks it is harder to say no over the phone, but we have a whole lot of people in our BOB, why take so much time to call, just do a conference call. This company is just insane. I don't blame her, she is just doing what she's told.
I feel like I read that, but now cant find the email...I will change - cheated

if they force me to, but I will not volunteer. I have been on this job with this schedule for over 12 years and you mean they suddenly have no work for me??!
Not me. I hope she doesn't hurt herself falling off her - high horse though. I have worked for EMT

for a long time and only stayed on after the merge with the information that my accounts, percentage of straight typing, dictators, flexibility and schedule would remain the same. This is our third COM/TSM and really starting to wonder what's wrong with this place.
I'll do whatever I have to at this point - StellarMT

If there was work on another shift, I would do it in a heartbeat. Looking at going back to school to dig myself out of this mess. My poor kids, I feel like I don't see them anymore. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing again and again and expecting a different result. Well, isn't that pretty much what we've been doing for years? We keep sitting here waiting for things to get better, knowing in our hearts that they will not.

Change Of TSM....this One Doesn't Answer Emails I See Apr 10, 2013My TSM always answered emails. Got a new one and won't answer emails. I have emailed twice. What the heck? Why take the job to be a TSM if you aren't gonna do your job? ...
Interim QA Gone - North Or West (or North By Northwest) With Apologies To Alfred Hitchcock ! Apr 05, 2011Ours from the West has (thankfully) gone back to being another MME like the rest of us poor mortals. I found her e-mails to be bossy, snippy, condescending and picky to the point of absurdity. The frosting on the cake was the recent e-mail that said MT's are to be held at fault if the doctor makes a mistake on a lab value, med dosage, etc. Some people get a little taste of power and become unbearable. I, for one, bid her a joyful farewell because ...
Anyone Who Doesn't Have Work Ask To Move To North, North Is Swamped Oct 19, 2013If your bob never has work, ask to move to the north.

I Have Had It. I Get Emails The Other Day Sep 21, 2010that we cannot send reports with more than 3 blanks through on TWO of the accounts I work on.
Right now, I have one of the worst dictators on one of those accounts. She is ESL and she whispers. To top it off, someone is standing very close to her running a VACUUM CLEANER.
I CAN'T HEAR her because she is whispering and the vacuum is running. So, yay me. I will probably have more than 3 blanks because of all this and will have to send it to QA even though they ...
Emails Like The One We Just Got About PTO, Oct 17, 2014all the red tape, the power over our lives, no flexibility anymore, no mercy in case of emergencies or appointments, lists and lists of rules.... I work every single other holiday there is all year long, hoping to take off Tgiving and Xmas. I work NY Eve, NY, Easter, 4th of July, Labor Day, Memorial Day, etc. But even though there's never any work on those 2 major holidays, apparently now we MUST work one of them, i.e., ruin all family plans just to get NJA all day anyway. ...
When I Get Those Emails Saying Dec 07, 2014I feel like saying:
Hey, no thanks, I already have 4 accounts, 2 of which I have no interest in.
Here's an idea, how about you get all those people on my accounts, which I have been doing for years, off of them, so that I can have my work back?
How about you get them off my accounts and give THEM the new accounts? I have enough trouble making decent line counts at all because:
(a) no work because overstaffed on my primary.
(b) secondary and tertiary accounts unfamiliar and pages of new ...

What Do You All Think Of The Below Message. Ccm Emails Nov 23, 2011My ccm sends out emails about her personal life to share. I do not know how far we can go on here but its about her expected bundle of joy in the not too far off future. To me it does not seem professional.

Emails Monitoring How Much We Do May 07, 2012Well, I will not be reading these emails calculating how much time we are working and "goofing off." They will only make me less motivated and quite frankly angry. I am not a robot, there are times after a long difficult report that I have to step away from the computer to give my brain a few minute break. As long as I do the required long count and then some, I will not concern myself with this emails. ...

I have this one particular doc that is not only speaking so fast the tape is cut down to 80%, but she is whispering. Afterall it is confidential info, so lets whisper so you can't hear the mess she is attempting to say. Ugh all in a days work of stress and frustration. Here comes my low LPH. ...
Reviewing Old Emails... Apr 18, 2013Slightly paranoid about being audited now since I'm reporting NJA instead of working 24/7. It's amazing just how many reminder emails we get and how many minute details for each account. I'm forwarding to my email to have just in case I'm ever managed out and need to defend myself along with the good and sometimes bad audits I've had. I'm human. Don't make huge amount of errors, but definitely not perfect...

Watch Your Emails Oct 03, 2013Just recently our QC sent out an email to an MT in our group for a HIPAA error and blind copied all the MT/MME in the BOB. This poor MT would never have known unless others came forward and reported that they got this email in error. Make sure that if you get an email it is only coming to you. I really hope she files a complaint with HR for shaming her in front of her peers. Don't look, don't share apparently does not apply to anyone other than MT/MME. ...

So What Is The Point Of All These Emails Anyway Dec 10, 2014Backlog is such and such, and I care about this why? I have a schedule to work, if there is no work, I sign off because there is no work. If the backlog is low, I can't say screw it and go back to bed, I work until there is no work. And the Smart Summary, I have no idea what the purpose of that is, anyone? Quality and blanks reports,hum, no idea there either. Talk about waste of money and justifying your existence, not to mention wasting my time. ...

Pointless Emails = POD TAT- Sm Jan 08, 2015What is the point of posting the POD's TAT's??!! LOL! I mean really, does the fact that our accounts are in or out of TAT having any bearing on how I do my job. The answer is "NO" More useless information IMO.

Multiple Emails Jan 15, 2015We seem to be getting more and more emails charting our progress, charting our errors, charting how much time we are idle. You name it, these people are chart crazy. I think they like the multiple colors. I am worn out from it all. If they spent half the time actually building us up with positives instead of negatives all the time, maybe, just maybe it would help our production. ...
Where Are All The Shouting Emails? Jan 22, 2015I think I love my new TSMs. I don't miss the all-caps-rage emails telling me work is out of TAT. Do you think that might be why some TSMs got fired? Having too much work out of TAT and being annoying to their MLSs about it? ...
Nuance Emails Feb 15, 2015Many typical Nuance emails boil down to this: Thank you so much for all you do. We appreciate you so much. We are a team. You are so important to the care of the patients. We really need your help, many jobs out of TAT. Please help. We appreciate you so much.
Yet, if they appreciate MTs so much, why do they pay minimum wage and, even worse, require this ridiculous thing called MUP? I didn't know being an MT was a volunteer job. ...

I called support when it first happened as I saw it as a HIPPA infraction as I had assumed that MQCentral was a secure website. He told me that someone with my Medquist email address in their computer looks as these sites and that is how I've been getting ...
