Only 9 hours this week and full-time with benefits and - No PTO left?? Never had this

Posted: Dec 27, 2012

happen before and I have another part-time job so I can't keep checking back and forth all day everyday to make up time. Anyone else every been in this situation? Tomorrow is Friday and I am not even close to 20 hours let alone 39?? I have put in tickets in remedy, but just curious if anyone else has ever been in this situation and what was the outcome?

I have an hour this week - gonna throw up

My last 2 weeks' check was horribly low, and now this.

Will my internet get cut off or my electric? Either way, I am in big trouble.

The outcome was that I put up with it for 3 weeks - and then I quit. sm

No one bothered to worry about whether I had work or not. I was only receiving scolding messages about how terrible we were making the company look and how upset the client was with all the mistakes on formating and filling in data.

Outcome = Goodbye! What other outcome is there? If they didn't care the first day, the second day, or the third day, do you think they care after a week or two or three?

Unemployment? - Broke

I was wondering if I was the only one considering filing partial Unemployment this week due to the lack of work. I always claimed if I had more than a full day of "out of work" at the last company I worked for (before I quit).

I for sure am applying for last week and this week. - This is beyond a holiday slowdown

I have gotten it in the past, and will do it again.

TSM will add new accounts. If you file partial unemployment, - SM

then your TSM will add those accounts real quick! Happened to me. (and if you refuse a new account, forget partial unemployment)

Nope, never. I have been doing this for 25+ years and I have never been out of work like this during the holidays. Somethings up with MM. Whatever it is, I'm sure we are getting screwed.

I have been on partial UE for a couple of months... - Lee

and no new accounts have been added. I am just waiting for them to let me go. I have been getting about 8 hours per week.

Been with this company for 20 years. NEVER - been like this for weeks.

[ In Reply To ..]
Yes, we had low work for maybe a day or even two, but never for weeks and weeks and adding to months and months.

Something is going on with this company. This is just not right and to have whoever say it is the holidays is a bunch of bull crap.

I have had 8 reports so far this week. Checking all the time and I get no work.

I haven't made by 80 hours per pay in quite a long time (almost a year). I sure there are some of you out there, too. They must not mind paying their portion of my benefits from health insurance to life insurance, STD, an on. What is up with that? I have never had a call saying I have to make my hours up or get called on the carpet for only sometimes putting in 50 hours or less. I just don't get it! ...

I am the one that got the state job and I LOVED it! During one of the training days, we ended about an hour early and the training person actually was concerned for us, because she didn't want us to have to lose an hour of pay on our checks. She told us to let our supervisor know that we lost an hour and ask if we could make that up, if we wanted to, because she didn't want anyone's paycheck to suffer due to her finishing faster than she should have. This was on ...

I worked for MQ full time and then went to part time last year, before finally quitting altogether because of health problems. I seem to remember an obscure policy that if you were full time and then went to part time, you could not go back to full time for a period of at least 1 year. Can anyone verify that for me? IF, and this is a big IF, I were to go back to work for MQ, I would need to be full time. ...

already my primary is running out of work. What kind of omen is that? My backup accounts had very little work as well. One of my coworkers told me PT and IC were told to stay off her primary the other day. I thought we'd at least get 6 months in before we started scraping for work. Is Transcend listed under the TAA? If not, it should be. That's all I'm really holding out for. If they want to pay for me to go back to school, that sui ...

up during the day - working 2-3 hours at a time - or do you work a straight 8 hours with breaks and a lunch? Thinking of going full-time and just cannot sit at my desk for 8 straight hours.

It is so exhausting trying to get your hours in with all the OOW. I can't apply for partial UE because I have another part time job (which also makes it difficult to sit here waiting for work all hours of the day), but I definitely would if Nuance was my only job. The reason I have another job is I get absolutely too depressed being at the mercy of the goddawful FIESA and nitpicky QA. It's absolutely disgusting the amount of OOW, even adding account after account, they are all out of ...

Does anyone care to share that if you are hired at optiscript part time will they let you change to full time easily? I know they are a small company and do not over hire so I do not know how easily this could be done. I am thinking of cutting down to part time at my current employee so I can work part time elsewhere and eventually just leave my current employee once I see how the land lays elsewhere. Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated :) ...
