How many Weekend Warriors do we have here? Those
who particularly work weekends and very little if any during the week?  Just curious.  I'm the weekday worker who jumps in on weekends when the workload is very heavy (which it is today).
Weekend Warriors?
How many here work at least one weekend shift a week?
In general business're running slower than usual but running. NM

Or after a boring weekend when working at a hospital someone asks "How was your weekend?" and

After finally switching my schedule to all weekend, every weekend
Seems like that's the only way I could get work with my MTSO. So, I do it. I am to the point where I will pretty much jump if they say hop,so I can feed my family. I would say it's sad, but I am actually glad to even have work and a decent check again. I am giving up a lot working every single weekend and days at the end and beginning of the week, but its daily work!
I am currently working all weekend every weekend.
I get so burnt out although I do have work on the weekends, and then there is nobody home or friends to do things with during the week because they are all working or at school. I really dislike this schedule a lot. Plus I never get to do anything on the weekends or plan for anything while everyone else is off. I wouldn't mind 1 day every weekend but 2 days plus Friday is really doing me in. Good luck to you whatever you decide. Do think long-term, because when I decided to go for this kind of schedule, I did not consider the repercussions of long-term every weekend day and Friday.
Not the AD but when that other giveaway was going on - sm
I found it once on the WAHM board, so I would presume the Secret Santa can be on any board listed to the left. Remember it looks like any other post....at least in that last giveaway it did; hence it is very hard to find.
Thank you MTstars for doing the giveaway again!

MT Stars giveaway
Thank you guys so much for my gift certificate from Lisa R from Wolcott NY.  It is much appreciated. 
It says you must enter each giveaway to be qualified
I think that means each different one you need to enter separately. that is the way the posts sounded to me anyway.

Excuse me, but I don't see any other MT site putting on a giveaway
for MT Week. I have gone to a lot of trouble to ask sponsors to graciously donate items for our annual giveaway. I have gone to a lot of trouble to make this a nice event, including banners, posts with full details on how to enter and by the amount of emails we are receiving people are managing to enter just fine. Sorry if you don't like my response, but it's just not that difficult to enter.

Thanks MT Stars for continuing the prize giveaway! Lots of fun! It is appreciated!

Yep, the bogus ransom letter was way amateurish and a dead giveaway
Her handwriting samples have always come back as "suspicious" by the forensic handwriting experts.

Yep, she did it.

Yes, it's a game to play. Santa has secretly posted a giveaway for you to enter. When you find the post, click the email link to enter.  A winner will be drawn and contacted. It's that simple.  It doesn't cost anything to participate. 

I should make it clear to everyone that gifts being given do not have to be.  MTStars and sponsors come together every year so that we can offer MTStars Santa's Bag gifts to US MTs who visit the MTStars website.  I am seeing disturbing posts that are somewhat condemning when all we're tyring to do is spread some Christmas cheer.  To those who have complaints, just don't play or ruin it for others who are enjoying the fun and festivity of this annual event.
I'm running XP pro w/sp2 and I keep
my machine in tip top condition w/regards to antivirus, antispyware, firewall updates etc...

everything is running well except for DQS which is still lagging today..


Running
Running and cardio in general is really awesome, but make sure you are doing some weight training.  You will have faster results and not so flabby when that fat starts coming off.  Cardio will burn calories when exercising, but weight training will help burn 24 hours.  Burn the butter baby!!!
He might not know about running a
top notch company, but he knows about being a good lover. That's for sure.
They must be running more than 1 ad.
I saw the first one and now it's got the airplane.
What happens when the do get th EMR up and running
Then you won't have that account.  Sounds like they needs something fast and temporary.  Stick to your current rate.
I can see what is running, but how do you them off?
Thanks
Is DQS up and running now? nm
//
now we see who's running this
You're right.  You're best bet is to wait until payday to quit.  These people are nasty.  Do you think she thinks she can take advantage of you because you're foreign (your words, not mine)?  You obviously aren't that foreign (my words this time) or you wouldn't be able to get the job done correctly.  $10 an hour is not enough for the crap you're putting up with, and you could be doing way better.  IC is supposed to be where the money's at because you don't get benefits.  I say drop and find something better!
Running on MT
First of all, I love your little avatar!    Second, thank you so much for the weblink.  It is greatly appreciated.
It just keeps running...
but nothing on the screen...The Geek Squad said it was the internal modem that you would use for dial-up and they removed that and it started fine...now it is back to the same thing...I am thinking it is the video card as well...I am taking it back to them since I literally just got it back a few days ago...
All boards are up and running.
ll
I agree with the others about maybe running an ad in the
newspaper to see about doing private housekeeping instead of hotel housekeeping.  It pays more and there's less yuck factor.  Also, what about selling on ebay or Half.com?  I supplemented my MT income for a while selling stuff from around the house.  After that, I went to yard sales and bought books and collectibles to resell.  I did OK, but it got to the point where I had to do one or the other due to time constraints.  MT won out because I don't have to package anything or drive to the post office.
and they are running out of work
I have been switched accounts 3 times now, because mine keep running dry.  Promises, promises.
yes, and running water too.

Hey! Me Too. Hospital is running over! nm
xx
running a fan helps too
It drowns out the rest of the noises while everyone else is up and about.
I think they have had one running since 1996!

Running away fast...
Thank you as well NM, I will certainly take your advice!!!

Cheers!!!
Not running out of work

Actually there seems to be tons of work on the account I am on, but I just can't get my line count up.  I know I am doing quality work, just not quantity, and would rather quit than be fired!  It seems like for the first hour everything is great then every report I get is a different dictator.  Just can't get the hang of their Ex-Text system fast enough either.  At my other job, which is online based through FTP, I did about 300 lines/hour during my shift last night, so I am really not THAT slow :) 


I did e-mail my resignation this morning but still have not heard back...At this point, I don't even want to finish in 2 weeks, Just want to be done wasting everyone's time.
