I too am like you. I have been a Transcriptionist for 20 years, and I still absolutely love it. I find it very interesting, and I work for a company where I can jump on any time and work. I think my husband gets a little tired of searching for me and fnding me in my office any time of day working. Now, this is not just for the money. I totally enjoy transcribing. If I am having a bad day, I can come back and work and take my mind off of things. It is sort of like me going to therapy but I am getting paid for it, instead of me paying a shrink - - lol! Now, I know what some are going to say..... I need a shrink!
