If you were to quit, who exactly should get the letter of resignation go to, because with the TSM, it would fall on deaf ears..Besides I have a fantastic TSM, Im not leaving her, Im leaving this company.

Know what you mean - MModal Livestock

Preferably, I'd like our glorious leader to have to read them, but let's face it, the CEO would never soil his hands with common rabble and the untouchables below him.

As for management, they're basically in the same boat we are. I like my supervisor and my QA supervisor/coach seems nice, though I've only have written like two or three emails to her. I mean I disagree with my supervisor's stated view of the company (disagreed on the phone with her actually, because I apparently lack the part of the human brain that tells the rest of your brain to shut it), but I get the impression that she's just clocking on and doing what needs to be done, then getting out, so I'm not sure she's a "true believer" in MM's dogma.

She has a tough assignment too. Her group is a difficult one. Everyone in her group is playing musical chairs with quality, line count and TAT failures. As soon as the troublemakers improve their scores, the good little children let their grades slip. It must be frustrating to have corporate constantly threaten to do unspeakable things to your team and there's really nothing you can do.

Plus, she has to put up with me and my weird mix of super positive (we can do this team!) and super negative (viva la resistance!) work ethic.

Thanks! We have a lot of - MModal Livestock

hilarious people on this board actually. I think it's the job. If you don't have a decent sense of humor after a couple years in transcription, you'd probably breakdown. I know if I didn't laugh at this stuff I'd have snapped.

A one size fits all M*Modal quitting letter, simply select the options applicable to your situation:

To whom it likely doesn't concern,

I want to announce some changes to M*Modal's transcription team.

I am pleased to announce that [your name here] has decided to leave the position of [HDS/SHDA]. I have held this position since [1 year ago/2 years ago - for higher numbers, simply insert "long, long ago"] and while I [enjoyed/am indifferent to/hated/loathed/regret/am shamed by/will always be haunted by] my time here, I have [finally paid off my debts/declared bankruptcy/finished my education/found a new job/snapped completely/shunned human society/given up on life/joined the revolution/received aid from the United Nations] and am leaving to pursue a new opportunity in [anything, anything at all/unemplloyment/off grid underground survivalism/crime/experimental drug testing/stripping/riding the rails/crying incessantly at the memories/mandatory hospitalization and shock therapy/moving to southern Asia to get my job back] where I'm sure I [will be much happier/couldn't possibly be worse off/will receive much more respect].

I will always remember fondly how [choose any or all that apply or add your own]:

There was never any work.

There was way too much work.

I could never get in touch with my manager.

Management would never shut up.

I thought a lot of those emails from the higher ups were form letters and recipes created as less than convincing simulacra of human feelings.

You forgot how long I worked here.

You forgot I worked here at all.

You forgot to tell me I was fired.

Two different QA people would ding me for contradictory errors.

I'd get so bored sometimes I would wake up falling out of my chair.

I'd get so stressed I couldn't sleep.

You cut my pay each year.

You stole my 401k years ago, but had the gall to keep asking me to put more in.

I would like to thank M*Modal for [barely providing me with enough money to live/ruining my life/stealing precious time from me/inspiring me to escape at all costs] and I wish you luck in your [able leadership/systematic destruction of the health care industry/convoluted schemes/financial debauchery]. I will [never/NEVER] forget my time here.

[Sincerely/your choice of cuss words],

[Your name again]

That's very good. - Dinosaur

I laughed and/or nodded through the entire thing. Good to see you back here, I thought you fell off the Earth!

Haha! That's great! - cheated

Anyone noticed these tests are asking some of the same questoins? My little answers keep popping up when I start typing in the answer. The transcription portions are way too long though. Some are super easy and others are the scum at the bottom of the barrel. I'm beginning to think we're doing somebody's work for them! Now I'm thinking about all the money I could have made by transcribing these stupid test reports. I think one company test ...

I only wish the rate of MT pay matched the MT skills, but why am I complaining? Still have a job ....

Back then, I would try to explain to my young 9-year-old niece that it is all about my preference to stay at home and work full-time, instead of working in Corporate America which I did for many years, and having to commute to work ...

I graduated from M-Tec in Jan. 2011 while working a full-time job. My plan was to keep working, get a part-time MT job until I gained experienced, and then quit my other job and do MT full time. I sent out tons of resumes but received no replies except for one that expressed fear I would get burned out working 2 jobs. After that I got discouraged and stopped looking for MT work for over a year. Now I'm newly motivated (hate my current job) and want to start looking ...

But since the first of the month, my BOB is out of work during my shift (late afternoon/early evening). This has never happened before.
