I don't think I work for the same MTSO as you guys, but same kind of situation. Email this a.m. saying ONE MT was out sick so needed help and I swear I'm the only one that got thrown at this account and am falling SO far behind (there are almost 200 sitting in the queue now). These are all from the past TWO HOURS ! Really ??? This hospital is THAT BUSY ???

I will never do OT again until they put me back on my - sm

original schedule that I agreed to upon hire & take me off of this crap schedule they forced on me. I feel screwed over and deceived, which doesn't inspire me to pitch in when they're backlogged like I used to always do. They're obviously hiring more people, so hire them for the crazy hours you changed us to!! It's not that hard to straighten this cluster back up.

OOW,POC,TSM, Helping On Other Accounts...
Jan 17, 2015

IMO, this new contact sheet is another way to make someone appear as though they have an important job... Did all accounts start this?  Maybe it is just mine.... It is 2 pages of emails, protocols, instructions...it has been revised numerous times in the last 2 weeks...we are supposed to print it---I am running out of ink--I have printed it every time it is revised to the "final." If I still have to email that I am OOW, and then wait for a reply on what to do, how does this help me? &nbs ...


Helping Doctor With EMR--funny
Feb 24, 2012

You gotta laugh so you don't cry!  My son works with hospitals on computer programs, and he sent me an amusing YouTube link to watch.  I thought some of you might be able to relate.   At the YouTube site, do a search for "Jane and the Doctor."  The subtitle of the video reads, "Jane tries to help a doctor place orders in the EMR."  It's animated, but it was clearly done by someone who knows a thing or two about EMR implementation!    ...

Helping Is A BAD Idea/Demeaning Emails....
Feb 04, 2015

I will never help on an unfamiliar account again--no matter what.   Why would I want to work on an unfamiliar account when I will get paid less for everything I do in a week because I have to send jobs to QC on an unfamiliar account? Today is my day off and I am reading emails that are demeaning, threatening and just plain mean.  I have done this job for 17 years and after all that time, I feel like I must be so horrible at it, that I am going to get fired.   Using phrases such ...

Average Per Hour With 0.75 Or 0.375 Versus $12.00 Per Hour
Mar 31, 2014

My transcription job was always paid by the hour. I was laid off and they recently offered me a temp position with them making $12.00 an hour.  I was also offered a positon that pays 7.5 and 3.5 cpl.  The $12.00 is employee status for a small local company I worked for over 9 years.  The other is an IC position.  Do you think I would make more with the $12.00 an hour or the per line production rate?  I have never done production by line work so I'm not sur ...

There is extremely loud static, so much so that we cannot even hear the dictator except for maybe 1 or 2 words in a paragraph? Do we abandon the job or send it to QA or.....??

How Are We Supposed To Know What Someone Else Does?

(!?)  If I can't hear something, I just can't hear it.  Period.  It's after I've done my research.  How can I predict if someone else's ears can hear it?  Maybe, maybe not?  I think they're just asking us to be superhuman.  The bottom line is that with all these restrictions, I'm d ...
