That was fast! Will let you know if I get "dinged" for it. Am being audited and the multiple, multiple things found by the MME's are unbelievable.

It was wrong!!! Was supposed to be mg/sq.m.

This was the explanation:
When technology does not readily allow exponents to be expressed as superscripts...

And then it trails off into nothingness. I think it is a quote from a resource. I am finding that the things that were drilled into me before my account went to India and I was put on a new account and then a different new account and yet another new account do not always turn out to be true for each new account or even each new company buying us out. If I had bothered to read the "Standards" document when I trained for Fluency, it would have spared me a lot of failed audits. For some reason, I thought I "knew it all." A lot of the picky, picky corrections have to do with simple account specifics or standards of the company or Book of Style or things specific to the new platform for which I trained, not just some random whim of the auditor. That is my duh moment for the day. Now if I could just get my font to quite putting in extra spaces. This was never a problem until I started in Fluency. If I am not very, very careful, I will wind up with several extra spaces in a report and I do not know how they get there. Of course, each one is probably a quarter of a point's worth, so I am wasting a lot of time checking for extra spaces. Ridiculous! I think sometimes when I put in a shorthand expander it leaves an extra space,but that does not account for all the extras. Has anyone else had this problem?

So, I'm not really asking for a show of hands here, but have you been "moved" in the last 2, 3 weeks or so to a hospital account in the upper northwest part of the country that is rather a booger-bear to learn? It is INTENTIONAL, you will be FIESA'd to death if you are not already. (You were likely told that they need you there because it is a difficult account to keep staffed, at least that is what they told the last person). Just warning you. Be on the lookout for that one plan ...

Do they really think we believe that all the TSMs "forgot" to relay us that important bit of information at the same time? Don't they know that we're intelligent people who aren't so easily duped? Interesting that the 0.88 announcement comes out AFTER the teleconference meetings regarding the new plan! It's SO transparent that they pointedly avoided having to feel the disgruntled-MT heat or listen to the multiple valid complaints about it! ...
