Well, what people don't get is they think their situation is the same for everyone, everywhere. Yes, on a holiday, the work was slow and the supervisor was nagging all day to check back, keep working, keep it up. It's a frieking holiday. Some people want to work and go watch the fireworks or something. Not spend their day making sure the work dictated 10 minutes ago is jumped on. Sorry, it's not legal. If you want people on call, you have to pay them for that. If you don't have the work, you have to let them make a choice. You can't frieking run peoples' lives.

to - She's a Dandy
Science of Mind, I believe, was founded back in the 40's. It is nondenominational - you can be any religion. It is a belief principal that religion and science are ONE. It encompasses taking responsibility for one self and putting Christian principals through scientific study into practice. Very powerful and very positive. Does not exclude any one, does not bash any one, just stays in a positive stream.

Fine and dandy, BUT...
Ive been online for my shift for many hours of straight trans only, and Ive only had a few jobs. There is not enough work to NOT do VR.

Although I have always been a huge TT fan and happy employee, I am looking for a new company currently.
