Not only can I no longer see what everyone else on the "team" scored for the week as a comparison to what a horrible MLS I am, I get little arrows up/down to show me how much better/worse I did than last week. What more can be done to humiliate me? Honestly! Meeting or not meeting the metrics has nothing to do with how it feels to have this weekly scorecard shoved at me. I was given a new secondary account with no training and no one to answer questions--just started one morning and was ...

TSM takes metric reports as gospel but there is no way they can be accurate with the line count and actual hours on server. I am sitting here waiting for work to trickle in. That reduces my line count and I think hours on server because I am not actually producing work that the server counts. Just wondered if all employees receive metric reports and what you think of the accuracy. ...

I know that "dialysis-dependent" requires the hyphen if a noun follows the phrase as in, "The dialysis-dependent patient..." However, would the hyphen be appropriate in this phrase if a noun did NOT follow it as in "This is an 81-year-old woman with diabetes who is dialysis-dependent."?
