In Reply to: Is anyone doing anything else at home to supplement MT income? - MQMT

way down towards the bottom of this page was not quite true, under the "straw that broke the camel's back".....thought you were doing really well with your MT work and your big bonuses?  At any rate, I do hope you find something that makes you happy; burnout absolutely does happen; been there done that too!!

well, I guess I won't worry about it then!!! I will add it to the other made up words that docs s

Boy, you sound so perfect. I guess you haven't made any mistakes then, huh? sm
Wow. Even though you have this so-called knowledge about her and her son, or whatever, you don't have to come on the internet to say that she didn't love her son in a "traditional sort of way." What does that mean? We all love in different ways. I'm with most of the other posters on this board that you do sound harsh, whether you want to admit it or not, and even if you DO have knowledge of her past, you definitely cannot tell anyone of us here that you know what she is going through. No one knows.
Will post a pic when they are old enough to guess.

Well, I guess thanks for your post, but as

I said, I have fears, and they are valid ones, thus my asking for honest opinions. Sort of rather passive/agressive answer you gave. Obviously I recognize how unhappy I am, and am trying to come to a decision, but my main fear is that I am fully cognizant that a move to MTing could potentially make me even more unhappy. So, my post!


Yeah, that post made me
laugh too, but for other reasons.  Actually, I have the sweetest, nicest lady who works morning at McDonald's.  Always so cheerful & quick.  The afternoon shift is a bit surlier though - lol
I guess I should have been a little more specific in my post. sm
the only rental property that doesn't house family members is the one not paying. My husband and I have bought property for family who couldn't otherwise get a house on their own. We have huge hearts, we really do. We give our percentage to the local church, every paycheck, and if we do make a cash or lump sum of money in investments we either invest it some more or give, give, give to unfortunate family members. We are very happy to do that. LIke I said, we are able to give to our familly and friends in need and we love doing it. We feel we have been blessed to do it.
If you read my above post, we always have a cushion for emergencies and daily living, but we had to write a big, unexpected check this time. Hence, me asking for advice on cheap food, etc.
As far as my SUV, it is a used, 2002, bought on ebay (we have 4 kids and an economical car just won't fit all of us), so that is why I drive an SUV.

Sorry for those of you I offended. We do have a lot, more than others, but we also give way more than anyone we know, too. We know we could sell a house to make money, but that takes time. The reason we have these homes is: 1. To house unfortunate family members. 2. To sell when each kid goes to college for their college fund.

oops, I made an error in above post

I made a sticky post at the top of the forum. I am not going
to get into specific debate over various belief systems and people's rights.  If you haven't read the sticky post, please do so.
She just said she would post pix and made it sound so attractive.

Your post made me laugh even more than the original! NM

She made a weird comment to the post
of a paranoid poster = 'curious'.

Read the whole thread if you want to understand.
No I don't know these things, I am sorry, I guess I jumped the gun on an MT post. Sorry , really

I didn't post that but if I had to make a guess...

I would guess the poster meant that newbies always feel they have a high accuracy. 


Don't be offended....if that is what was meant.


Ask your QA or supervisor where you stand.  At least you care !!! 


I guess I'm not allowed to post the link.
sigh.
I don't know why I laughed so hard at this post! Guess I needed it.

i made $15/hr before and didn't stay long because i made so much more on production. sm
that was with full benes too. i wouldn't do it for less than $20, but i think even with $20, i'd want benes. are you in-house?
I don't know how it made such a small diff in your invoice... made a $100 diff in mine! (sm)

If it were only adding up to three bucks, I wouldn't sweat it. $100? Yeah, that's baseball registration for my son for this year. I am not giving tabs, returns, etc. away free when it adds up to that much difference!  Why should I charge less for a Return than I would for a"K"?


 


 


If it's different for each report, my guess (only a guess)
would be no. I think the macro would work if it was the same each time, but not sure if it will if the documents are different each time.
Should just post all their open positions in one post and only be allowed to post one of those a day

Yes, I tried to post same last night about 10 times, and it won't let me post.
I used to breed lab puppies (please no activist flames)! I had a champion female white Canadian lab, and people would be on a list for years if by chance I bred her, which I did twice, and so that I could continue her line.  Anyhow, she's my sweet Skye who passed away 2 months ago? At any rate, we had the same problems with kids in the "hood" who wanted to come over and play once the puppies were old enough to be exercised daily and played with.  At first I thought, how cute, right? Puppies and little kids - what better picture! Well, the majority of kids were adorable, but there were always 1 or 2 sick ones who would smack the pups, smash and hold their heads in the dirt (a real common thing, but I don't know why - psychiatrist anyone).  At any rate, I finally had to ban the whole group due to the 1 or 2 creeps, had to call the police, the whole 9 yards, and that's EXACTLY what the police officer told me - next thing is there will be poison meat or a donut in the yard. He told me to always go out and patrol my yard, especially alone the fence line every day before I let the dogs out, particularly at night. I went out with a flashlight.  It was about a month later, but sure enough - poison meat.  Because there were so many kids involved, we obviously couldn't pin point the exact family, but the police went and read the riot act to them all. It would stop and not happen again for a year or so, but every now and again we would find something. My dogs were NEVER out and barking, so it was nothing like that - it was just over the puppies and the cruel kids.... Not trying to freak you, but that's the way these kids and their families are.  You can really judge someone's character by ill treatment of a PUPPY, of all things. And the parents??  They sound whacked.  Please be careful.
Sorry, I posted this post under the wrong post

thanks.
Excellent post! I copied this post and...

it explained the two. The psychosis actually develops after the depression. Scary stuff.

I would be willing to bet the majority of people posting negativity about MQ have been fired by them! I've been with MQ for over four years and am very, very happy. My check is always on time, sometimes early, I always have work, my coordinator is great, I can't say enough good about them. I would recommend you at least give MQ a chance. I admit, I was disappointed when they called me, but at the time, I just needed a job, so reluctantly I accepted their offer. Now four years later, I'm so glad I did. Everyone has their own opinion and experience about each company, and the same is with MQ. Not everyone will be happy there, but I certainly am. Good luck to ya!
made some changes...let's see

yes...you made my day..:-)
Thank you so much...works like a charm.
I have definitely made more
Plus, it saves on the hands and wrists. I never want to go back to straight typing. Still enjoy straight typing, and do about 70% VR editing and 30% typing. Love it.
You have just made me $$$
Yea!!!
I have to wonder if this is made up BUT if you are
be appreciative of the opportunity to become a superior MT by the QA guidance. If you allow yourself to fall into that pit of self destructiveness by playing 4th grade _the teacher hates me/likes me more than you_ routine, you only do yourself harm. Ask yourself...by having the information that someone is _getting away_ with something you can't, how can you _win_? You win by your superior skills. You learn and you thrive and if you need to, you move on. In the meantime, you learn things that you should have taught yourself as the proper way to transcribe 15+ years ago.

probably made her day! (nm)

But maybe if she made that $500
AND talked to her mortgage lender....offered the $500....then maybe they would be more likely to work with her. It was a suggestion, and a fine one. Lets just help the girl out. OK!
