So, if we have a problem, there is no one to ask unless it is an emergency? - What gives with these jerks?

Is this to set us up for more failure?

Please understand your TSM has vacations to plan, gardens - to plant, shopping to do. No time

for work-related issues or questions. Put yourself in their shoes for a moment, they can't possibly do everything ya know.

I feel so isolated sometimes without assistance? - Any of you feel that way?

Or maybe this is part of the plan also. To leave us completely without resources so we make mistakes and thereby lower our pay even more. Patient safety? Yeah, right!

I actually prefer the isolation, my current team--sm - anon

has a conference set up in Spark so we can ask each other questions. Sometimes it is a help. Most of the time it is a couple of people who are either extremely new or lack critical thinking skills asking questions, which takes time to answer. Then you become aware of the differences in MT styles which will make you second guess all kinds of things you never did before (often needlessly). Just my 0.02. I just like to get my work done and then go about my other business.
