how do they handle you being sick, etc, when you are an IC? Do you get PTO? It has been so long since I was an IC I do not remember. I'm thinking you get nothing and are able to take off whenever you need to. ...
Has anyone received an answer to their requests to take time off before 12/31? I have sent in numerous requests and have heard nothing at all. Just wondering if maybe my emails are not going through. ...
How do you handle this???
I have a few clients that don't tell me when they will not be in the office and then right before they go away everything becomes a STAT. How can I make them understand that without them being there I am losing time and money and that if I knew I could have made alternate plans.
Any advice would be great!

"Accrual rate of 0.02 per production hour."
I guess I am stupid but I don't know what this means. 0.02 what? hours?
Also, does it say anywhere, like on our paystub, how much vacation time we have accrued to date?
TIA! ...
Just great. Even though it says on their little line count thing that I do 488 lines per hour, benefit rate goes down $3.00 an hour. I didn't do that many before so what gives MM? ...
Does anyone know when the PTO balance is updated in ScheduleSource? Is it at the end of each week or at the end of each pay period or when? I'm trying to figure out how many PTO hours I have left for this year after having used a couple of days last week. ...
I attempt to balance my life and have, for the most part, been successful in the past 10 years with MM. However, with the constant MOT for the past several months, I feel like I'm in constant chaos. I can no longer find time to cook, clean, be with my husband, be with my kids, spend time with my extended family, exercise, find time for me, etc. I am constantly tired, achy, and feel physically and emotionally sick. I don't eat properly or on a schedule anymore be ...
I'm trying to use just my balance ball right now. I have some low back problems and find that my posture is horrendous with sitting in a normal office chair; however, just the balance ball alone seems to be a little too low. Overall, it feels more comfortable on my rear end than my normal office chair and I'm definitely sitting up straighter, but wondered if anyone else out there had any experiences, good or bad, with using a balance ball or the balance ball chair setup.&nb ...
To those who have recently left Nuance, how long after receiving your last check do you get paid for you PTO balance? Or do you not get that $$?
I'm trying to be patient as I received my last check last pay period and it did not include any $$ for my PTO balance.
Thanks! ...
I quit today and will have 3 days work in, with a remaining PTO balance of about 2 days. Any idea when they will pay out the PTO and if it will be direct deposited with my last line payout? ...
Can't wait to hear my CCM yell at me for being in the negative with my hours. I am still short 5.8 hours today and my shift has been over for 1.5 hours. Everyone seems to work hard come end of pay period leaving me with no jobs available. How can this be my fault..? There are only 2.5 hours in my PTO bank and regardless if I use them or not, cannot wait to hear her choice of words she throws at me! typically condescending.
Oh well. There was ...
Anyone use a stability/balance ball as a chair while working?
Would appreciate hearing any thoughts on whether you felt it helped you with posture, core muscles, balance, etc. ...
See, some companies do value employees as real people.

Been off for a week and I am having a heck of a time trying to convince myself to sit back in this chair and do it again. I keep trying the 'ol "at least it's a job speech," but I sure don't want to do this after being gone for a week. That is sad because I used to like what I do. Now it is worse than sitting in the dentist's chair having teeth pulled - at least that is temporary and you get to get up after an hour or two.
But I did miss you guys and am gla ...
How does everyone out there handle vacations? If you have your own accounts, not using independent contractors because the load of work is perfectly manageable ... until you want a week off?? Looking for a good way to take a vacation but still stay in business and keep accounts happy!! ...
I put in a request on Teamwork for my vacation about a month and a half ago. It still has not been approved. Are we supposed to email CCM with vacation request also? What is the point of all of these functions on Teamwork if you still have to email CCM for approval? Just an extra step thats a waste of time. Anyone know? ...
I've been in this business for 30 years, but am under employed at the moment and am starting to get bored to tears with having so little work to do. But, it seems that all of the ads that I see are looking for full time transcriptionists.
Surely there must be some companies or MTSOs somewhere who would need an MT to help with part time or per diem work, to help with vacation coverage or maybe for temporary work just to help clear up an occasional back log and such. But, d ...
I was wondering how it's done. I have two days a year when I'm not available to work because of a family reunion. Since most of the fun doesn't start until after 12 but we have to be there very early because of the committees we're on, I hate to waste that time doing nothing when I could be working.
My company does not allow satellite. Is this the only way it can be done? If not, what are the required items besides a laptop?
Thanks in advance ...
I am probably just jealous, but I find it hard to be happy for them taking these luxurious vacations when on my wages I am lucky to go to Price Chopper and WalMart. Tell us you were gone, had a nice time and don't rub it in. It is not making us feel more friendly and "family like", or at least to me it doesn't. ...
Wondering if anyone has been able to use vacation time yet? Been so long since I heard anything. Supposed to be a "benefit" from the Service Contract Act. ...
Let me get this right:
1. We are 8 business days from the beginning of crazy work.
2. We are out of TAT a lot now, client unhappy.
3. You want us to widdle down our saved time off to just 2 days; there are 30 biz days left to end of year.
4. You want roll-over time (only up to 16 hours) to be used by 03/31/2015.
5. Many of us are plannning vacations, thus coverage for pissed off acounts will be even less.
6. Many of us are very very concerned with any mergers/buy-out. NEVER, in my work his ...
The one who gets her/his jollies from kicking MTs when they are down and struggling. It is summer...why not get outside and reconnect with society rather than hiding behind your anonymous computer and picking on folks here. Have a nice day. LOL ...
Did I dream this or did I not see a while back that part timers would still get 5 days of vacation time for the year? I don't see it on my PTO balance. Anyone have any information on that? Thanks in advance. ...
