Um, so are you supposed to open the e-mail and close it down right away to avoid reading their e-mail on their time? It's not like they pay me to read e-mails during my shift, either, so I'm not seeing the problem.
I think we just hit ridiculous. ...
Currently it says there are 161 visitors online. Of all the MTs in the US this just seems like such a smalllllll number. I know it gets up to like 320 that is the most I have seen EVER, and I have been on this board for a couple years (with some longer periods of absence for some reason)...
Just wondering why there aren't more people? I mean, not that I think there should be, I never have enough time to read any of the posts as it is haha...

I have a bad feeling about this one. Some of you may "know" me, i am here once in a while, have been for a few years. I am coder at a very large facility in midwest and have been for years. Last year our hospital installed Computer Assisted Coding and we are implementing it in stages. First we used the annotated fields just to help identifying things that may/may not need to be coded. Then we started getting suggested codes to go with the annotated information. Then ...
I thought in training I was told that it started accruing immediately (full time/full benefits), but looking back through my pay stubs, I didn't start accruing it until after I had been with the Q over 5 months.
I've been looking on MQCentral, but I can't seem to find the answer. I would love to know if they owe me back PTO...which would help a lot since I sit here for the third day in a row with no work!
Thanks! ...
ASR-a is-a stupid-a. So-a I-a have-a to-a waste-a my-a time-a deleting-a every-a "a"-a because-a heaven-a forbid-a that-a MM-a make-a program-a that-a actually-a WORKS-a.
Hope you all have a better day than me! And that's just the first report-a! ...
I was wondering what my fellow MTs think is going to happen starting 2014 when Obamacare kicks in. I had read an article in the NY Post a while back that 74% of MDs surveyed plan to work part time, retire from medicine, or go in a new direction careerwise. Do you think we'll see a decrease in work available, even SR editing work? Do you think that if a great amount of MDs cut back or retire from medicine that would cause our profession to lessen in demand? ...
He spelled cytoreduction for me tonight. That makes me think that someone else misspelled it.
I just worry - in today's climate, if we make enough mistakes will they decide it 's easier to do it themselves if we can't do it right?
It's late and I'm rambling, but I do think about this. ...
Lately after I have done a few reports, EditScript starts to get slow. I hit a key and there is a delay before it does anything. Not much of a delay, but still delayed enough to slow me down. Eventually, it gets soo slow that uploading the current report and downloading the next one becomes next to impossible and I have to close it out and reboot the program. Anyone else experience this or know the problem and a fix? TIA ...
When first time right actually starts working in my area, what kind of message will you get if you try to work outside of your schedule? Will you be able to log in to DQS/DQM? Thanks ...
I know some of you are on lockdown already and for that you have my utmost sympathy and empathy. We are supposed to start tomorrow. There are NO HOURS on the swap board and we have been running into NJA every day since MQ did the management shuffle. I have my resumes out and took some tests this weekend. Hopefully I will hear something soon so I can get off this merry-go-round that just isn't merry any longer. I don't want to worry every wee ...
openings heavily, repeatedly, on every job site, you can bet the next webcast is going to be a doozy. They know they're about to deliver bad news & many will quit in disgust. That seems to have held true this time again. ...
No conscience, this LG, hired to slash, and slash she is good at! l shudder to recount all the I.D. numbers I've seen come and go from her matrices. If you were just switched to one of her accounts, beware, there is only one reason for that! She is on the AB (COM) team last I knew. ...
If you are hired to work a 40 hour week and the work starts to dwindle, does anyone know when you can contact unemployment to collect partial unemployment...have also asked for a secondary account and have not heard a word back...am going on 3 weeks of not getting in my full 40 hours and am so frustrated...am in NJ, if anyone has any info...thanks so much! ...
You'd better be looking very quickly for a new job, because you may all of a sudden find yourself locked out of the system with no warning, no inkling of what's going on at all, no idea there is or was any sort of problem, nothing.
No matter how nice you think your MTSO or manager is, open your eyes if you notice anything amiss at all and do it fast.
Don't keep all your eggs in one basket, I'm very glad I didn't.
If at all possible, pleas ...
Hoping there are some masters in Microsoft Word on the board today.
I have a document to edit that was originally a poem, and each line starts with a capital letter, i.e.:
I went to the
Store and bought
Some milk.
I need to go through and lower-case the words in the document that need to be (Store=store, Some=some).
Does anyone know any tips/tricks/shortcuts that will help me do this quicker? I thought of find and replace, but some of the words actually do start a sentence in othe ...
to respond to e-mails or phone calls? I have never had a supervisor before that just wouldn't respond and I don't know what to do. Any advice would be appreciated. ...
who totally ignores your high priority emals for weeks and doesn't deem you important enough even to send you a a quick answer? What kind of a place or mentality would do that? Makes me feel like I'm just a little pissant. ...
I haven't worked for DTS long, but knew Transcend was taking over and so far that looks good. I have had problems getting straight answers from DTS supervisor since hired, like when the supervisor, TL, and QA people were on duty. The nice recuiter told me she would get me a list without my asking, but forwarded the request to my boss who said she didn't know why I needed this information. Really? Isn't this the first information eve ...
Does anyone have any ideas of what to do about a supervisor who always says, "It is a privilege to work at home". She threatened me that I might have to come in-house to work because I complained about my keyboard no longer being compatible with the new computers. I have to work weekends in-house on a rotating schedule. I also said it is difficult to get readjusted when you go in house because the work station is different. I should have never complained because now she s ...
Thank God the anal, basket case, nutjob supervisor I have is leaving. No more phone calls every time I go to the bathroom. Hope I don't get something worse than her. ...
Who can I contact above my supervisor? I cannot get any kind of response from her about anything. Overnight, my work load dropped by more than half. Literally, overnight. ...
Anybody else get the e-mail message regarding NJA and changing schedule? What are your thoughts?
wondering if seniority will be taken into account? don't know why they want us all on second and third as they keep running out of work as well.
wish they would let us in on what is going on and let us be part of the solution instead of acting like we are the problem.
Sitting here becoming more and more stressed. Family is sick and tired of me being depressed/stressed over w ...
