No Jobs in South - txmt

Posted: Jun 15, 2012

Is anyone else having problems getting work in the South region? It seems since Memorial Day it has been slow. Every morning there is no work and even in the evening there is no work. Where is it?

has been low in north as well - its in India

I've had the same experience for 3 weeks straight. Went for months without NJA, now cannot get in 1/2 my time.

I don't understand things, apparently accounts have gone to EMR, but they've added accounts to make up for that, but there is still no work, and I've heard people complain about mandatory overtime, and they are constantly hiring..... I'm confused. What I would really like for once is if anybody knows anything USEFUL... a ton of replies whining and complaining aren't going to help. Does anyone truly know what is going on with the South accounts?

was told the big account went EPIC. I was informed that I have been moved to a new region (West), but haven't heard from new supervisor yet, so don't know where to log in today.

O. M. G. I'm in the western region and I HOPE they are not - adding more MTs to our BOB

We have NO FREAKING WORK and if they are adding EVEN more MTs to accounts that already have no work I'm literally going to flip my lid.

Wow, what gives? - (SM)

No work (or low work) in the North, South, AND West? What do you think is going on? How does a company this size run out of work so often?!

Oh don't think for a second the company runs out of work ... - anon

It's US that runs out of work. The work flow is very carefully controlled by the company - my CCM told me that most of a facility's work is shipped off to India, and only a tiny, tiny bit stays here in the US for us domestic employees to do. In the whole scheme of things we only get a single-digit percentage of the work that is available.

I believe that - there are lots of service centers

way more than the 4 we are most familiar with, and a lot of them are in India.

India - MT

Not sure that is correct. Awhile back someone had MM figures for the amount of work offshored last year and I think it was about 45%, which is much less than what I had thought.

Not sure India presents a threat. More like - technology.

I wish someone would come out and say what the future holds for the profession.

Probably the same as the future of our country...in the toilet....1/2 of us will work to support the other 1/2 who does not.

It is insulting to all of us with the way that MT pay has gone down the drain, it is frustrating and aggravating to look for a "decent" job these days, trying to work out which companies will treat you fairly, which ones lie about their platforms, work, etc., and not only do these companies not want to pay us what we are worth but now I see that MANY companies are requiring the MT to have or "be willing" to purchase hundreds of dollars worth of equipment.

Ask your CCM tonight to temporarily help out in the South if you are NJA. I hate to draw people to my accounts and risk running out of work, but considering these accounts are going to go late in a couple of hours and they have already threatened to leave if TATs aren't met, it's worth the risk. I just wonder who the bonehead is who handles workflow. I wouldn't think it would be that hard to look at the statistics and move some NJA people to fill in some gaps.&nb ...

I am wondering if the MTs working in the North region, which was recently pooled into one big region from what I understand, are getting enough work. I know if they are doing it in the North, there is a strong probability they will do it in the South, so just wondering if its a good thing or a bad thing in your opinion to pull work from a centralized work pool. Aside from the fact that working on multiple accounts can be a pain in the a** since all want different things. All an ...

Here I sit twiddling my thumbs because I can't work my regular schedule. When I signed on today, the audio was so low I could barely hear it. Muddled through the first report, straining. Second report comes up...same thing. Tried everything I could think of to no avail, unplugging speakers, turning off and on, etc, rebooting. Called Tech. They identified no problem. Said to send to QA so perhaps they could??? No reply from CCM (more than likely because she's bombarded with emails from ...
