aside from the QA-MT question--sm

it is my opinion, and just my opinion, that if you are not happy in the work you do; if you don't absolutely love it; cringe every morning when you turn on your computer; use your time off for sick days; etc. then it is definitely time to consider a drastic change. MTing is not as bad as some say it is. My opinion is that it all depends on who you work for, and also that you get out of it what you put into it. I make decent money MTing and love my work. I always do my best because I take pride in what I do. Stop cleaning up other people's garbage and take the plunge back into clear waters. You won't regret it. But then again, that is just my opinion. good luck to you! If it was me, I wouldn't be wasting my time asking other people for their opinion about what I should do...I'd be gone already! Just for my own peace of mind.
