First of all, settle down there trigger...

I don't know where the animosity is coming from.  Noone was being hateful about anything.  I think it's a fair enough statement to say to her with your experiences and mine both that it's about even on the amount of companies that pay by report and pay by the line.  Was just trying to let her know that by the report was not the end all to be all out there for rad.  There are still alot of companies that pay by the line. 


Secondly, I am very happy for you that you are making such great money getting paid by the report.  I wish I had the same opportunities in front of me that you have had so I could make the better choice, but obviously I haven't had that.  I would love to get better pay for what I do and have done for so long, but I have had to make the decisions based on the offers in front of me at the time. 


You really didn't need to be so nasty about it...I wasn't trying to say nobody out there gets paid as well as you by the report...I was simply trying to make sure she understood that alot of us are still drudging along with by the line pay.

Trigger Point Advice

I am in need of some advice.  I have been dealing with a trigger point in my right trapezius area for the past 2 to 3 years.  Two injections with no relief, and now physical therapy with minimal relief.  Anyone out there have any suggestions on how to either deal with the pain or eliminate it?  Obviously a long vacation would probably cure it, but that is absolutely not an option.  Even my physical therapist is frustrated.  He's been taping my back to correct my posture.  Using a TENS unit.  Went yesterday for probably my last visit and it has tripled in size since my visit earlier this week on Tuesday. 


This thing is just unbearable to live with.  I love my job and not willing to change vocations, but this pain is out of control!!  Someone has to have some advice for me!!!


Desperate for advice!!


I had back pain for an entire year. They did a trigger point
injection and it's gone. I couldn't believe it. I wish I'd found it sooner.
if you settle with MQ cause the others are no better...sm
doesn't that make all the other ones crappy, too? Every job has it's perks, as well as it's crap.  That's just life.  As for me, MQ works. I'm not saying that it will for everyone, just my own personal experience. 
SO right. People like that, who *settle* are
.
I'd settle for 200 to keep my electricity on.
some people i just will NEVER understand. 
I'd still settle for 5 ft 2 in. Of course I wouldn't mind

be 5'6"+ and having legs that just wouldn't quit, but then I wouldn't be the person I've become and I much prefer who I am to who I might have been. 


Why *settle* for less than you made in the ྌs?
.
You went unemployed for a year to settle for IC work
So you pay huge amounts for your own taxes, benefits, etc. No PTO, no sick time, no holidays.

Good job on holding out there! Way to go!


Pretty sad when you have to settle for a crappy company because all the rest are no better.

I don't work for that company, geez, huney, settle down
