Tip of the iceberg is right.

I suspect most TT employees and most MTs are like me:  I have a MILLION things going on in my life that are much more important to me than MT'ing.  I just do my job, keep my nose clean and try to ignore all the angst and drama on this board.  But this is TOTALLY RIDICULOUS! 

Who's idea was this, anyway, at TT???  Really, did someone get so mad that they did not think through the consequences of this?  I suspect there are many little workerbees like me that just do our jobs and ignore the whole sturm und drang of the MT world who will realize that this is the LAST EFFING STRAW!!

HOW DARE YOU TT???  HOW DARE YOU???  This is AMERICA, G.D.  Land of the free.  You know, as in FREE SPEECH!  Really, I have not been this pissed off in a long time. 

NEVER ASK ME FOR A FAVOR, TT.  NEVER ASK ME TO DO EXTRA WORK UNLESS YOU ARE OFFERING OVERTIME. 

BITE ME TT!
