my life is pathetic

In Reply to: You sound like a bitter, jealous, uneducated female. - nm

You sound so cruel in your reply. What if you had not found another man who was nice. What if you were still with your rich ex? I cannot believe that you would say such a cruel thing to this woman ESP. when you have been through the same experience yourself!! Not everyone gets a second chance to find a better person and/or life like you did. You need to apologize PROFUSELY to "my life is pathetic." I've had my "down" times, and as YOU should know, it is not easy to keep a happy face and have hope for the future. Again, you just got lucky; not ALL of us get that second "lucky" chance for a better life. Step back and take a look at yourself!!!!!

My life is pathetic. *sm*

I work outside the home and I make a good wage/yearly income.  I took up medical transcription on the side in hopes that some day I could work from home.  I have to travel almost an hour to work each way and I live where we have major snow and ice storms and the older I get, the more anxiety I get about driving in this weather.  My husband hasn't been able to find a good job (he works about 30 hours a week at a dead-end job with no benefits) and I have a son in college.  I find that I work all the time with almost no social life.  I also have friends and relatives who seem to be working more than one job either both jobs outside the home or one job outside the home and then doing something on line.  No matter how much I work, I never seem to be able to get ahead and it scares me.  I do not have an extravagent home nor do I drive a newer vehicle.   What is wrong with us that we have to work more than one job to make a living and how am I going to face retirement?  I am thinking I will have to do medical transcription from home until I can no longer see and just pray that it is still around.  I never in a million years thought that my life would end up like this.  I should have listened to everyone when they said it was just as easy to marry a rich guy as it is a poor one.    


 


 


Life is life....the haven't bonded the same as if it were a 2-year-old!

isn't it just pathetic
Make a buck, make a buck.
Pathetic...
I can't wait to get out of this profession. When I hear someone like you say that you've been doing this for 19 years and you make 8 cpl and say that PROUDLY is just SAD.

Im sure these blood sucking companies who don't give a crap about their workers would LOVE you!
...pathetic.
.
What a pathetic person you are!
So, what you are saying is that the $20,000 that was donated is nothing? PUHLEEZ - If you do the math you big brain, that is enough money to give at least a few hundred families enough money to get food, clothes, and some well-needed necessities! Now, YOU go do the math! It is people like you that are such greedy SOBs and are not appreciative of anything. I know of a family that was displaced and I can guarantee you this - THEY know who is being generous and who is not. In my opinion MQ did what they could! Obviously NOBODY does more than they can - HELLO! You didn't clear your savings account and cash in on any stocks to send money did you? HECK NO!



I know. It's totally pathetic already
It would be comical if it weren't so tragic.  I have never seen anyone with such low self esteem.  She has to come on here and browbeat people who aren't even complaining.  Then she wants to brag(?) that she made $200 in NINE hours????   I do feel sorry for her, but I am getting really sick of listening to her venom.
You guys are pathetic
Can we just wait until we get the darn packet before we start crying like babies -ENOUGH ALREADY!
That's not funny, it's pathetic

What's really pathetic is how people who are so
of their own lives feel some sick kind of vindication and gratification from having the last word on an anonymous message board.

Okay, honey. Go ahead and have your little victory for the day. It's all you have, and I know you are just dying to post a reply!

LMAO

I have a life to lead. Have a good day, but thanks for the entertainment.
LOL!!!!!! Kinda pathetic that I have nothing better
x
Pathetic. Outsider p.o.v.
The "anon" poster ended it yesterday and if you can tell who he/she is with the moniker of "anon" then good on ya. You look pathetic.
i agree, its pathetic
the mass generalizations. i never have understood it. Maybe i have been blessed enough to grow up near and know people of many races and cultures and i see the HUMAN in all of us. sure i have some prejudices, but its more toward those with massive tattoos, klaidoscope hair color etc, fhe things people choose for their appearance, not gender, skin color, age, etc.
you are SO mistaken and PATHETIC
I have worked for her for over 5 years and NEVER had a problem.

Guess going national to find decent transcriptionists is a mistake. All you do is slam, slam, slam. Pathetic bunch a lot of you are. You deserve stuggling with the huge companies and low work and crappy platforms and VR at half the pay.
Oh, my gosh! What a pathetic attitude...

Those poor people need help!  What would you expect them to do?  They have lost EVERYTHING, and many of them didn't have much to begin with.  They can't go back to where they lived.  Most only have the clothes on their backs.  Shame on you.


 


pathetic refund back to CEO
you go girl!! tell him you want your postage reimbursed - haha!!
1. Me. 2. Me. 3. Me. 4. Me. 5. Me. Total # in household: 5. pathetic, huh? sm
Also, we have a total of 11 acres - 3 of which have to be cut. Our riding lawn mower broke in the spring, so guess who is out there pushing it? Yours truly.

If I don't do it, it doesn't get done....And I need things to be done for my own sanity. Can't stand a messy house.
That's pathetic that a hospital would pay for such work.
The hospital should be ashamed of themselves for hiring an offshore company.
You are pathetic. I make $35 an hour with
you would make some money.  Instead you want to stir up trouble and complain.  Why not look at what you DO have instead of what you DON'T have? The reason I am in MT is because I make $35 an hour and I can't make that anywhere else.  If you don't believe it, I don't care.  I'll go back to my work now and make some money, and you can sit on this board and b*tch and make nothing.  And it's your own fault!
I find it ridiculous and pathetic that somebody who
volunteers to give expert advice for free, like you, is being attacked by people who are less knowledgeable.
And that it comes to a point that these experts have to 'apologize' for being so knowledgeable, instead to be thanked for their advice and help.

Your writing style, grammar, spelling, punctuation, all are of highest caliber, I congratulate you for this.

And I have never spotted a typo! (I might have missed one, but I do not think so).

Please keep on giving us your expert advice, thank you!
How ridiculous and pathetic, rather slupid!...
Go and drown yourself in drugs and medicaments, we'll see who bites the dust first!

Another Xanax-druggie?!

This really is pathetic. 5 years ago I started out with .07 and they are still only paying that?

You're really looking pathetic here. Notice how everyone thinks so? Move on. nm

I make sure the job is not my life and that it does not take over my life. sm
I have been at this 25 years, even once had my own accounts and worked 24/7 with cat naps to keep going but no real sleep. I really burned myself out. Now I work a regular 40-hour week, but it is not my life. It is a means of making money so I can go live my life. I work for a company that is not all about production. They want us to take our time and do it right. I am doing that, and it feels so good to be able to work at my craft and be allowed to do a good job while I am at work.

But after I get off, I have my family and I take time to have fun and enjoy life. I think that is the key to not staying burned out. You need down time, time to have fun, exercise, relax, etc.

Exercise is very important, too. It rejuvenates the hormone system so you have more positive hormones flowing through your body and helps get rid of stress.

That's what I do.
I'm the one who needs to get a life?


You people are the ones laughing at people behind their backs.  Typical female, backstabbing, egotistical snobs.  Exactly why most of you can't handle working in an office.  Thanks anyway, but my life doesn't include ridiculing people for me own ego.  You go right ahead.  Feel good about yourself.


Never in my life

I guess I have led a sheltered life.  I never in my entire life heard about so many companies bouncing checks in this business!  I would be out the door so fast, there'd be no dust behind me.  Have I just been lucky?


I have a life.
It's not a money issue. I have hobbies but the winters are long and cold and I'm not a winter outddoors person, only summer and I have no child. Kinda of a workaholic.
Yes, I live a simplier life.
Get a life b.
I didn't realize it was intentionally setting a flame by telling people you like where you work instead of the freaks who come on here constantly complaining about their jobs. Most of you only want to hear negative things and not positives, so when someone posts something positive, you jump all over them. I think you need to grow up b.
Get a life.
Whatever fugly trash. If you want more, keep it coming.
Don't even try to top my life
you old decrepit piece of trailer trash. I will win hands down every time. Now go to bed and dream about the love of your life,your horse, Mr. Ed.
No, I sure don't come first in his life.
he does of me.  Seems like his loyalty lies there.  I don't think he ever learned the "leave and cleave" thing.  And our kids are very important to him.  He makes it abundantly clear that I am not top priority.  Sometimes I daydream that I meet someone who really loves me and run away with him.

nothing in life is ever as it seems...sm

you all might be able to *read* all this supposed goodness but some might see it differently.....as some are better readers of others in life, perhaps more intuitive..

LOL everyone in my life has always said....sm

Everyone in my life has always said I should be a *comedienne*...... they ALL cannot be wrong as they all do not know each other.  I do see myself as *entertaining* others.  *winks*


However, I don't like lazy people.  I'm the first one to help on these boards, unless they really don't help themselves.....just the way I am.....


Be well.......loved your reaction!!  Oh and the one under it, who also LOL. 


It is her life, but you can still try to help her
I agree, abortion is wrong, she would be making a bad decision that she might later regret very deeply. It is her life (but not just her body involved anymore--there's another living being whose body is growing inside hers), but you can still try to help her. She may not want to listen, and if not, then you've done what you can and she has to live with the consequences of her own decisions. There are many good resources available, such as National Right to Life at nrlc.com (http://www.nrlc.org/abortion/index.html) and various Catholic organizations, with a lot of information available about the negative effects of abortion. She won't get that type of info from Planned Profithood--they just want to put as many women through the mill as they can. Learn about it yourself and then share the information with her. You may at least be able to persuade her not to kill the baby but to put it up for adoption instead. She may also be interested in the negative health effects of a promiscuous lifestyle (such as increased risk for cervical cancer in women). Good luck to you.
WHY? Get a life.

Well, it's his life, isn't it? (sm)
Sounds like you're more upset about the lack of respect than your son's happiness.
your life
It sounds to me that you are one of those people who takes care of everyone but themselves and as Dr. Phil says, you must be getting a payback from it.  I don't know how old you are, but you sound young.  One thing I know for sure is that you will never change your brothers so don't even bother trying.  It's not your job.  Let them live their lives and you live yours.  If you are choosing to do what you are doing, i.e.working working working and giving giving giving then so be it.  Not everybody is like that.  You have to ask yourself why your mom keeps allowing you to do as much as you are doing for her without helping herself.  I'm no expert but if you continue on this way, something's gonna snap.
Life
You have probably reached your limit. The most I have worked for is 3 companies at once and I did not have a life to speak of outside of work. I am working for a national now - and you have to break your neck to transcribe a line - they may pay higher than a small local company - but their line lengths or the ESLs prevent you from transcribing per hour your real potential. I wouldn't take on the neurology group unless I was just desperate for the $$. You could take it, though, and subcontract it to your friend - with her as an IC. Check the IRS website to get the specifics on subcontracting or "hiring" an IC and what it means to your bottom line. Hope this helps.
Get a life!
MTs come on here to vent and our fingers get to flying and we don't sit there and edit our posts. We do enough of that when working.
Life after MT at age 58
  For those of you who are happy MT'g, I am glad for you.  This is for those who are not.  Just to let you know, at the age of 58, I am going into a customer service career for an auto company's financial division, and will be making more than thirty thousand a year - so yes, it can be done.   My only qualification was that at one time for about five months I gave real estate a try - not my forte, didn't like the driving, people not showing up, etc.  So yes, you can still do something else, don't give up if you really can't tolerate it any more.  There is hope! 
I also have a life ---
that is why I want to work smarter when I am working and get it done so I can live my life...
You need a life...

Actually, that's my life, not like : ) - nm

Thank you, I will be out getting a life (nm)

to Wow! Get over yourself , a job and a life.sm
This is my post that you criticize; it has 2 'tiny' typos, namely 'd' instead of 's' and 'a' instead of 's':

......'because I find it faster my way, ONLINE.
You are using bookd, the old-fashioned way?

Expensive and much too slow.

I checked the yesterday'a and today's questions in the afternoon and found - as already said - only 1 somehow unjustifiable question.
To check 1 day would have been enough.


I research ONLINE
with fast and accurate results. The internet is literally swamped with resources and references and is the fastest way. You should try it.
Are you still looking into books? Way too slow.

So, do not blow this out of proportion.

If you have the urge to teach and to guide, open your own MT school and give your advice there.'

ARE YOU SO BORED AND UNEMPLOYED THAT YOU HAVE TO PLAY 'TYPO POLICE?'

great too, but only in this life!

oh well. no one said life was fair
you just have to make what you can out of it.  There are many, many other subjects that can be debated as well.  That is what makes life what it is; a great variety of people and view points.  Enjoy the day.
