some other kind of work you can or want to do? honestly people, money is not everything and if you are working 2 or 3 jobs to make ends meet you are killing yourself for nothing but paying the bills.

Miserable
Yeah, air conditioner went belly up and the cheap ones are sold out. I would not be working in this if I were not so dedicated to paying my bills, LOL. Know what you mean about being sleepy because cannot sleep in this heat.
I have always had animals in my life (the kids always had to have their own pets and so used to be a full house) and cannot imagine living without a dog and cat around the house and at least one stray or unwanted pet to find a home for (right now a turtle found wandering the streets by a neighbor!).
Stay cool 
I am miserable there and hoping
to get out. I have never made such a low LPH. I was not aware that not being paid for spaces would hurt my production so much, but it has made a big difference. I do like their platform and it was easy to learn, but I still have bills to pay. I used to make 200 to 300 LPH with other companies, make 150 or so with this company. Also they have a program where you can look up previous reports on the same patient or examples of report types or by the same doc, but it always, freezes or goes so slow and I am stuck in my screen. I have heard from some others having this problem. It really slows me down. I am leaving as soon as I can.
Wow, what a nasty and miserable POS
you are. Sheesh!!!
If a person doing VR is miserable, then they need
to check around, find out people who are happy with VR as it looks like most are going that way regardless and then make a choice. No sense in being miserable trying to work with a system. Again, life is just too short for misery.
Come on - This board is not just for miserable MTs.
Understand your feelings, but why do you come here? Not everyone on here is miserable. Do they not have the right to post also. You do not have to respond to them, you know.
It is very informative to see which companies have work, which do not, and for how long. Pay, incentives, and bonuses are also very informative. Who gets them and who doesn't.
Don't shoot the messenger!
You sound miserable....why do you stay? nm

Bet you're quite miserable with that tude.
lol
I think you should at least try to change STMs if you are miserable.
Mine is awesome. Super flexible and super helpful in everything. She gives us the option to flex if we want or take PTO (obviously we could use unpaid if we need) if we would rather. This last week when work was low and a holiday, she told us we should submit PTO request ahead of time and then if we needed we could unrequest some if we were able to make up some hours.
Maybe you could get with a new STM once the new accounts come in? Maybe ask to switch accounts?
You're right. It is miserable to be a US employee anymore.
We treat the immigrant workers and the overseas workers better than we treat our own ... it's the American way, of late, anyway.
I also encountered a QA nazi..She made my life miserable.
She was ridiculous to say the least. Is this company out of FL or UT? It just sounds very familiar.
I am not miserable at all. I am just tired of excuses of why people cannot work! nm

Sorry. That was eTransPlus. TT had the miserable ESLs and teaching hospital that I couldn't

As a former "QA Nazi" undeserved or not, you guys make our lives miserable, too.
Especially ESL MTs who used to be doctors in India who think they know it all and like to threaten lawsuits. Yah, that's the ticket.
"The most miserable group of people in the world"? Great attitude for a Lead.
Hope you're not one for long.
