Reduction is not 'gravy'
This is why we are all angry about it. We are not being paid purportately as you presumed. We have stayed on ASR because what is left on our accounts is the pits!!!
ASR reduction is a fact
I have a letter in hand with my new base pay rate which has been reduced by 20% for ME (ASR) work. I am under the Baltimore CSC office and am an SE. I was told I can opt out of ASR but the work is low and MTs who have already opted out are running out of work. So, it is not speculation and if I had a scanner hooked to this computer, I would prove it.
What do you do for stress reduction?
I am 100% stressed to the max, all the time. I wish I wasn't so high strung and jittery. So what do you do to relax and reduce stress? I need ideas.
stress reduction
I have lots of hobbies that I enjoy soI can easily immerse myself in one of those and forget my troubles for awhile.  My favorite hobby is scrapbooking.  I also go to the gym daily and that helps reduce stress as well.
MQ line count reduction
I got that same call and I was furious. He acted like he didn't give a crap if I was mad and quit or not. I didn't know anything about a change in January. What is that all about.
i didn't say the reduction was gravy
i said what you have been getting up til now IS gravy -- you've been paid high-dollar for ASR when you don't have to do anything but edit.
Actually the reduction in SS benes only occurs.
UNTIL you reach full retirement age. In other words, if you take SS any month prior to your full retirement age (in this case 66), then the reduction in SS benefits is affected by your income. Also, if you are under normal (or full) retirement age (FRA): when you start getting your Social Security payments, $1 in benefits will be deducted for each $2 you earn above the annual limit - this is directly from www.ssa.gov, the site regarding Social Security.
My insurance paid for my reduction, nightmares

I can understand why women want breast reduction
done, because this is actually not only a cosmetic surgery.
The weight of hevy breasts can cause back pain, shoulder pain and a lot of other pains.

Had I heavy breasts, yes,I would also opt for this surgery. But I think I would 'chicken out.'
I am just wondering since MQ ASR rate reduction starts the 1st of October how many have opted out
of ASR and how many are just going to continue to do the ASR. I wonder how much work they will push on ASR now with the rate reduction. Watch the accounts fly on ASR.
Other than the reduction in ASR starting Oct 1 the rest of the deal doesnt start until January 1 so
we all have time to move on if it does not suit us.
