It's been a long day when it comes to the job today. I sat at the screen and did nothing for 8 hours. Okay, I had three jobs, but no matter how you slice it, that's pretty pitiful considering I work for one of the largest Healthcare chains in the southeast. It wasn't any better for the rest of the team with approximately 6-7 other transcriptionists on at the same time I was. The work wasn't there! We had perhaps 7 jobs that came through the VR unit during my shift and not much more than that to come through the dictation unit. I don't know how much longer this will go on - no one wants to pay a worker to sit around and wait, hoping there might be some work eventually to be done. It's scary...
But on the good side, autumn has started off beautifully! The temps have dropped and the skies are this clear beautiful blue. Today was just glorious. Best of all, it's the type of weather for going out on a mill crawl and I can't wait! So for the next couple of weekends, I'll be contacting various properties for permission to walk the area and photograph so I'll be ready to take a mill weekend as soon as Ted clears off a few of his obligations. Finally! New mills for the website!
