Pay for last 2 weeks - sick and tired

Posted: Jan 24, 2011

Just figured my pay on lines for the last 2 weeks. Really depressing. I figured it twice because I thought it just couldn't be right. New Year sure isn't starting off well.

I made 89 bucks last week......good thing I quit smoking!.. - McDs here I come.........nm

how is that all you made? - oh no

[ In Reply To ..]
How is that even possible? Were you not able to make up time for NJA?

Oh dear.

3 days with hardly any jobs and 2 days with hospital server down... - Can only be online during scheduled shift!!..

It is quite depressing.

do we work for the same company? - MQ

[ In Reply To ..]
Dont you roll into other accounts when there is nothing in primary?

What do you mean can only be online during scheduled shift? If there is no work during your shift, you work when you darn well feel like it.

No, I quit MQ a long time ago and work for Breitner now.... - thought it would be better...ha ha....nm

Any chance of getting down time? - mom2huskies

In this case you should at least get paid for down time.

if she worked for MQ, she would have downtime - why post here

[ In Reply To ..]
Granted I am new here, but I kinda figured that you should work at MQ if you post on the MQ board. Only makes sense, but what do I know?

I do work for MQ. - mom2huskies

She should get down time if she works for MQ. I am fairly new to MQ myself, used to work for Spheris.

the other one said she worked at Breitner - Not MQ

was not referring to you working here.

This is a site for US MTs, and that is what I am... - Plus it is a free country still.....nm

The OP posted regarding her pay, and so did I... - The whole site is not MQ only.......nm

[ In Reply To ..]
:(

no one said the whole site was MQ only - but this MQ BOARD is for MQ employees

[ In Reply To ..]
If you have a general comment, it goes on the main board, if you have a company comment, it goes on the company board, if you work at the Q and have a Q related comment, it goes on the Q board, if you have an offshore comment, it goes on the offshore concerns board.

THAT IS WHY THERE IS DIFFERENT BOARDS.

Does anyone read anymore, or even comprehend what they read?

Hello fellow MT's, I saw that another MT posed this question and I thought it was a great idea to get a heads up before I do this. I plan on giving MM my 2 weeks very very very soon and I was wondering if anyone who has given 2 weeks at MM could tell me what happened immediately after they gave their notice? How they were treated, how PTO you have banked was handled, etc. Anything will be helpful. You can private e-mail me if you would like. Thank you in advance, it is very much appreciated ...

What if I don't give a 2 week notice? Is it really gonna hurt me? I doubt they give detailed information about what kind of employee you were. Maybe just dates. I have been with this company since the mid 90s and I hate to just up and leave like that, but I don't know if I can take it another day. Every week its something new. My pay is down to almost nothing. With the type of reports I get, there is no way I'm making 5% and living with my ...

I used to get a phone call immediately upon sending a resume. Nowadays, nothing. I'm amazed that these companies are not looking for good help. ...

Do you think it is necessary to give 2 weeks notice if I am ALWAYS out of work. For example I should be done with my 8 hour shift in an hour and I am not even half way through the day due to being out of work on my primary and ALL of my back ups. I just do not see the point in it. What do you guys think? Thanks and I hope everyone has a great day!! :) ...

and she has time to attend her kid's school function during the workday?

When's the last time you were able to take off to attend something for your kid's school? How much do these supers and schedulers make anyway? It seems like a dream job.

but accounts in my own BOB, I started getting ALL non-BOB today even though apparently there was plenty of work on my primary. So I though, hmmmm, I bet I'm getting audited....sure enough......I looked in statistics and I WAS. Surprise!!! --- after 6 audited reports (very difficult, unfamiliar ESLs and new-to-me work types) I have a score of 97.7%. I guess I failed my second audit. That makes me so bleeping mad!!! So, does this mean I will go on 100% QA immedi ...
