Posted: Apr 30, 2010
With the weekend incentive, is OT automatically approved? Can't get a response from CCM.

I was told that the special incentives require OT approval from CCM. Curious if this is across the board or not. They should put this into the e-mail from Medquist.
Same old yada, yada, yada. It seems like they set my minimum at too many lines for me to ever achieve it so I don't even try.
BUT did you read the towards the bottom of the email where it says that the payout is Nov 25 EXCEPT for former spheris employees who will get their incentive $$ ON OR BEFORE NOV 5!!???
This is not fair. But then, when is this company ever fair. ...
Here we go again, incentives offered for weekend and having to meet minimum lines to earn the incentive, but work is popping up so slow it isn't even funny. My time card looks like I just clock in and out for the fun of it. Come on! Where is the work to even make the incentive pay? ...
Our region had an incentive where if you worked a minimum of 3 hours overtime you would get an extra $10 an hour on top of OT pay. Well, I put in an extra 3 hours Friday morning. Predictably there was NJA on Saturday during my shift, only for about an hour or so and since it was Saturday and my shift ends at midnight, I had to take PTO. Per my manager, that PTO canceled out an hour of my 3 hours of OT, meaning I didn't get the inventive. What a scam. Let& ...
My lph doing ASR is the same as my lph for straight typing!! - I'm not a fast typist anymore - hands a bit stiff at my old age. I've tried everything, including only using the keyboard and no mouse. Just too much stopping and starting - at least 3 times a line. And if it's a correction, extra time needed to highlight and type over. It felt so good to get a couple typing jobs as I had some continuity going - none of this herky jerky of stop-start-stop....... I've got my res ...
NJA on a weekend with a bonus going on!!!! What an exercise in frustration. And to make matters even worse, I received a recruiting e-mail from the boss....looking for new transcriptionists. I have been NJA 3 days this week and then a bonus going on on the weekend and cannot even get my scheduled weekend time in!! ...
How do you guys feel about the weekend incentives that MQ sometimes offers? You know, the 3 cents per line more for exceeding a line count that they calculate from the past for you. Do you actually make more money or is it eaten away by taxes, and is it worth busting your butt for? ...
to even make minimum wage. I am an employee with a set schedule. Does anybody know where I can find info regarding minimum wage payments when production work is not available. ...
I have 15 years experience, but can't seem to find any steady work that includes weekends (like Fri - Mon, Thurs - Sun). If anyone knows of anything or has a suggestion, feel free to e-mail me. ...
and yet my CCM sent out a message requesting assistance on one of my accounts for this coming weekend. What the blazes! I have had NJA on all but one of those days she is requesting help for the last couple months. What is she thinking? It is quite obvious that the account is over staffed on a couple of those days and we will not need the help this week. Its frustrating as I am barely making enough to live on as it is due to constant NJA and now she is asking for he ...
I just listened to the monthly meeting and she said ALL employees are now required to work at least 1 weekend day?
Has anyone who is M-F been forced to change their schedule yet? ...
As I watched my family leave and our dog to head to our relatives cabin in the next neighboring state last night, I cleaned the house and did some laundry and worked my last hour typing. This morning I am ready to work my 8 hours and what happens??? NO WORK. You think I would be used to this by now after all these years, but now I am really ANGRY! I have done this when it is Easter, Thanksgiving, Fourth of July, etc.
That is it. No more will I ...
After 12 years with Mmodal, and 5 with YOG, all working a weekend day, I still cannot get change my schedule to at least every-other weekend off. Does everyone work a mandatory weekend day, or is it just T3? TU ...
There is nothing more irritating to me than to call for MOT on a holiday weekend knowing darn good and well that the workload will slow down and work might trickle in for the majority of the accounts, yet you expect an extra hour of overtime... kiss my grits MM
You offer bonuses for certain groups in a POD, send out emails on backlog and MOT for our group, yet I'm getting accounts from someone elses POD, not some other group but someone elses POD... kiss my grits MM
You ding me for puttin ...
Now, I have to sit and play catch up all day, fighting everyone for every job that comes in. This sucks. I have my grandson coming over today and would like to play instead of sitting at my desk.
Have a good weekend fellow MTs, hope you have enough work! ...
I work for the NorthEast section of Medquist and my supervisor wanted to verify all of our hours before we started getting locked-out of working hours other than our scheduled hours. When I emailed my hours to my supervisor, I stated that I wanted to drop my 3 hours I had previously been scheduled on Sunday night since I was having a hard time keeping those hours. Mind you, I already work 9:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. Monday through Friday and 8:30 to 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday. She then wr ...
Can a company impose mandatory weekend work on their employees who work one weekend day anyway? Just curious ! MTs have Friday to Monday to complete the mandatory schedule of say an extra five or 10 hours !!!
...
My CCM has been harping on us voluntarily changing our scheduled to weekend hours, how "it won't hurt a bit" and you may quote me. I already work every Sunday, but they want me to now work a 6th day, splitting one of my other days where they no longer need me to work, into Friday evening hours. How am I supposed to do this when I already have a second part-time job on the 2 days I have off? If they didn't slash my salary by 40%, I wouldn't have to work around the ...
All week NJA. Everyone has hours to make up I am sure. At 9:30 CCM puts out E-Mail for OT and extra hours for weekend. At the time of her mail "work is low" so why are we looking for OT and extra time committments???? ...
