GO FOR THANKSGIVING!

You asked for opinions, so I'll give you mine. I know you have decided you won't go, but here is my take on that issue. You may not like your stepmother or her children. But your father is still your father. My Dad died just over 2 years ago. What I wouldn't give to have him back just for a Thanksgiving Day. You can get over your personal issues with your step family for the weekend and go and be with your father if you choose. Or you can let these "issues" get to you and choose not to go. Your father won't be here forever. None of us will. Love him while you can. Love yourself enough to be big enough to go and see him. You will never regret that. You WILL regret one day that you didn't go, and you won't be able to change it. You DID ask for opinions. That's all. Please reconsider. You don't have to stoop to your stepmother's level. Be the bigger person. LOVE YOUR DAD WHILE HE IS STILL HERE!!!! Be THANKFUL for him.Off my soapbox. Peace.


Thanksgiving
I am a newbie at this and so far no one has said anything about working Thanksgiving.  Do most companies just expect you to work if you are an IC.  I work for a small company in Florida and have not  received any e-mail or anything about what I do tomorrow - should I e-mail them or just assume I do not have to work.  Thank you.

I kkow that a paper route doesn't really count...but if Thanksgiving falls on a regular day, (which it does) then I am expected to "work" that day.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Thanksgiving

Thank you very much. I actually found a pretty good sample. I also found some sites in archives.


Thanks (once again) to all you kind MTs.


Anyone else stressed out by Thanksgiving?
It seems like there is always SOME sort of drama going on in my family whenever we get together - we're somewhat dysfunctional, LOL. I always find myself dreading the holidays and I hate that - I should be looking forward to being with my fam (mainly my four sisters). They seem to always be in a state of crisis or jealousy whenever I see them. ARGH. Anyone relate?
Happy Thanksgiving everybody...

Happy Thanksgiving to All...

Just thought I'd share this site in case some of you haven't seen it.. Turn your speakers up and enjoy! I thought it was cute!

Thank you - and a Happy Thanksgiving to all

I wouldn't wait, since Thanksgiving is such...

a good time to show the house.  All during the holidays, with families visiting and such, is a very good time for homes to sell.


It is absolutely HER job to show your house.  She should also only be bringing pre-qualified buyers.  She should also abide by your request regarding when the house may be shown.  After 3 is certainly not unreasonable, assuming you aren't including weekends in that.  Many buyers are out and looking earlier on weekends. 


In any case, I would call her broker and change agents NOW, if I were you.  Why waste another few weeks, or even days, when it is only delaying the sale of your home.


Just my opinion. 


Why I'm still married - a Thanksgiving story

Not much to many maybe, but my husband still surprises me sometimes.


He works 3rd shift as a dock supervisor at a local shipping company that's only about a mile from our house. He doesn't like to think of himself as "supervisor" because he's always been a team player.


Because they load trucks to ship out the next morning, he had the night before Thanksgiving off, but had to go in at 8:00 p.m. on Thanksgiving night. "Lunch Break" is right around midnight and he found out that one of the younger single guys hadn't had Thanksgiving dinner because he had to stick around to go to work instead of going to visit family.


So I hear a bit of commotion in my kitchen around 1:00 a.m. and find that  my husband had brought the guy to the house and had warmed up Thanksgiving Dinner for their lunch break.


Now isn't that just too sweet?


Of course they left me the dishes, but oh well.


Belated Thanksgiving thought

Thank you to MT Stars for not only being willing to let us express our opinions, but also for not censoring them.  This bulletin board has more frank and direct information regarding working conditions and companies as an MT that without MT Stars, there would be a lot of wool pulled over MTs eyes.  This board is 100 times more valuable than paid boards, because paid boards are so worried about stepping on any toes.


 


Happy Thanksgiving Holiday to all...sm

  and I am sure gonna try to not overeat!! 


ENJOY Y'ALL!!   


Way to go!!! You are blessed.
Wish everyone could be that appreciated.
Those who have both are very blessed! nm

it's not slow at my company - overloaded since Thanksgiving
nm
Cripes - not even Thanksgiving yet, and I've run out of work.
.
God has blessed me greatly too!!


Congratulations on being so blessed.
I work for a national. I don't make $35 an hour, but that's okay, too. I pretty much enjoy my job, I love being at home, have a good supervisor and feel blessed to be able to choose to work from home. I am glad for you, though, and wish you the best.
I could not have been blessed with a more wonderful
father. He is a good, loving, Christian man. Worked hard all his life to take of his wife and 3 daughters. He is now 80 years old and I can still call on him whenever I need him. I live across the street from my parents and have sort of become the "parent" now in that I watch out for them and they, in turn, watch out for me. I am so blessed.
If you were "privileged and blessed" ...sm

I certainly envy you....you're 1 in a million.  Most would not feel that way.  This is just too tough a question as there are so many variables.  I know my decision is coming soon, and I just hope I make the one I can live with.  I actually bought a house with 2 living areas with that in mind but.....as the time approaches and she becomes more and more obstinate and difficult to handle, it's a very scary thought.  I just pray she goes in her sleep still healthy. 


Consider yourself very blessed to be making
8 cpl and only an MT since January. I have been an MT for about 7-1/2 years and working for the same well-known national company for 6 and still only make 8 cpl. I have taken on a part-time job in a completely different field to make extra money and am even contemplating making the other job fulltime and working even less than I do now the national. I don't know of any what to increase your earnings as an MT.
I agree - blessed

I agree with the positives.  I too make awesome money (3-4K) per month and besides that have been able to watch my children grow up and be here when they get home from school.  It is less stressful on our family life and allows more time to spend with my husband at night.  I too do not have to buy clothing, minus the jeans to go into the office to pick up work, and do not have to worry about when the kids are sick, can still work, etc.  It has been an extreme blessing in my life, and I will do it as long as possible.


I don't think there are many jobs where you can make great income, have flexible scheduling, wear jeans to work or work in pajamas, and make dinner all in the "regular work day."  Not to mention I type outside in the summer by the pool, great idea!!!! Makes for a nice office!!!


Blessed in many ways here as well.
If we sit back and count the many good things that have come I would have to agree they far outweight the "bad" things.  My kids were off all this week from school.  I went to pick-up work and the office manager says to me "Your children are off all week from school?"  I said, "Yes due to the holiday on Monday and then conferences all week."  She says, "Well I guess that's okay for you since you DON'T WORK" as she's handing me a stack of "work".  She goes on to say "But what about all of the other mother's who have to work?"  What do they do for daycare?"  I said, "Well, I guess it puts those mother's in a very tight spot?"  Hmmmmm.....  Funny the perceptions people have of us work-at-home transcriptionists.  It is almost like if you do it from home it cannot possibly be work.  Let it be known that I love what I do, but I still consider it very much contributing to society.  By the way, thanks to your sister that factory stays doing what it should be doing, and thank your sister for ME personally for putting in the time and showing that she cares by going to work each and every day no matter how tired she gets!  Thank you for sharing....
You are blessed, for sure! Enjoy it! nm

Count yourself blessed....sm
A long time ago, before I ever started with national companies, I could have written your post almost word for word. I felt that I "needed" to go with a national company because it seemed to be the thing to do. If what you are doing works for you, then by all means keep on keepin' on. You are one of the fortunate ones who likely will not be affected by all the new "technological advances" that MT has made.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all MTStars members! Have a great day!

Happy Thanksgiving from all the staff & moderators at MTStars!

I was blessed with long lean....

muscular legs, which I still have, even at 45.  I can sit cross-legged like a kindergartner listening to a story, BUT, lately I can't get up without hobbling around like a newborn horse for 5 minutes.  It's like this horrid painful stiffness.  What the heck is it? 


Wow..you guys are blessed beyond belief! nm

Yes, blessed, but that doesn't mean you have to be stomped on
and treated unfairly. A person can understand and acknowledge that they are blessed by having their job, etc., but that doesn't mean that when situations become unbearable that they can't stand up for themselves. No one said they didn't want truth. The definition of truth is honesty, not nasty comments, verbal abuse, calling a person "manipulative", telling her she has "no right to complain", belittling her feelings, concerns, telling her that her feelings don't matter, calling people's opinions "absurd", all of these are quotes from posts and none of that is TRUTH. One person even posted she should "stop griping". She has a right to do so. Yes, you have a right to your opinion, but you don't have a right to belittle her feelings and thoughts and talk to her like she is trash. Someone comes for advice and encouragement and you treat them like dirt? The definition of truth is honesty, "sincerity in action, character, and utterance". The only truth we have seen from this thread is the truth that some of you have not one ounce of good character. Opinion does not always equal truth. If any of you have children, I hope that you don't teach them to talk to other in this manner. What a disgrace!
WOW! What a great MTSO. You are blessed!

Whoa, are you blessed! You see offers out here for 6-8 cpl

Those who are so insecure that they make things up are not blessed, however.

Sure - let's take a look at some of the many benefits that illegal aliens have blessed us with, s
Street gangs, graffitti, drugs, skyrocketing healthcare, depreciation of property value, welfare fraud, illiteracy. The list could go on. What they actually have to offer (cheap labor) pales to what they have given our country to deal with. I'll take expensive vegetables over expensive healthcare any day!

If you really look at it, Proverbs 31, that woman was blessed and amazing. She sm
did it ALL! She considered a field and bought it (on her own), she provided jobs, food, clothing for her maidservants, she was found at the markets early in the morning *(buying food and things for the home, I suppose). To me, this chapter tells me that as women we can do it all if we put our mind to it and that God expects a lot from us. I think about her "buying" the field to plant her harvest (no mention of husband/male whatsoever) and that helps me know God's will for my life with regard to work and homemaking, taking care of the children.

She was considered blessed. If we took better care of our bodies then we would have the amount of energy this woman had.
I turn on the news and realize that I am safe and blessed.
