I have been working for 2 weeks now. First week of training, drove me insane but last week was good to be working on live work. I had to send all my work to QA so that they could check to make sure that I was doing it right and correct any mistakes or blanks that I could not understand. Last week was also a little hectic with the holiday weekend. My new schedule is Tuesday through Saturday and went I started working on Tuesday there was an email from my supervisor asking me why I hd not worked on Monday. I explained my schedule and she said that she needed to update my info, they still had my old schedule of Monday through Friday. Well on Thanksgiving I needed to work but was only able to get in a little less than 4 hours before the work ran out. Then on Saturday I also was only able to put in a half day before the work ran out so that bothered me because, no work, no money! Now I have started my 2nd week of real work and when I checked my email the first thing this morning there was a note that I do not need to send to QA, YEAH!!!! Now I just have to be very careful and make sure that I look things over before hitting send.
I enjoy working as a transcriptionist, it is a constant learning process but at the same time it is very hard work, because you have to sometimes translate what is being said, in fact the company is now calling the position medical language specialists, and boy is it another language; so I guess I can say that I am bilingual now, hehehehe. Also working on production sucks!!!! You have to check in and check out on their time clock, but you do not get paid by the hour, only by your production so it bothers me that I have to remember to check in and out all day long. Oh well, such is life, at least I have a job and I am able to work from home which means I do not have to pay a babysitter, which would just take all the money that I had just made. Now hopefully there will be plenty of work this week and I can keep busy.
Now if only the IRS would call......but rumor has it that it will not be until mid to end of January possibly even February, so the wait continues!
