If sales are so good and business is booming why not pay your grunts (MTs) better? We are the ones who do all the dirty work so you can take the credit and the benefits and the pay. We are the ones who listen and relisten to the mushmouth, careless dictators who eat, spit, cough, sneeze, pee, mumble, yawn, and more while they dictate. MTs are the ones who get busted for a wrong lab value or missing an incorrectly dictated medication dosage or typing "the" instead of "a" and getting blamed for everything the dictator does wrong instead of training the same dictator under the guidelines you want us to follow. Take money out of the dictator's pocket for poor quality dictation and I bet they do better. Take money out of their pocket and put it in our pocket for listening to their garbage dictations. Stop with the $50 gift cards and raise our pay to the quality we deserve. YOU would not work for the nickels and dimes you throw at us. Congratulations Sales Department. I'm sure there are pay raises and bonuses and cruise ships awaiting your backside while us grunts sit and wait for work to come in, hoping it will be decent and not shred our last nerve while we live in front of our computers like lab rats waiting for a piece of cheese just so we can pay our bills and wake up the next day and do it all over again.
