I have work...16 hours' worth every day, 6 days a week no less. nm

Working 6/hour days, 5 days/week I make
$42,000.00, but the work is there to make more if I want to. I'm in the southeast.
How? By working 12-hr days 7 days/week?

I work 6 days a week every other week
Due to my company's payroll (it runs Sun-Sat), I'm able to work a rotating schedule with every other weekend off. Week 1 I work Sunday through Thursday with Fri, Sat, Sun off. Week 2 I work Monday through Friday with Saturday only off. Then I'm back to week 1 and get that following weekend off.
I've found that I'm more productive with shorter shifts and I have kids in school anyway, so I work a lot of split shifts during the week. If possible, you might want to consider cutting back your hours to 30 hours and just work five 6-hour days in split shifts, 3 in the morning and 3 in the evening.
Yes it was...can't wait for next week!!!-nm
Thanks for your support and yes, I am taking a week off in Aug. Can't wait!!
The last 2 shows were fabulous. Can't wait to see next week's!
just wait, i'm sure they'll get to all of us
that is how some of the nastiness starts on this board, too many rumors and not enough facts. When MQ calls you, if you want you can post your facts, don't rely on others for their info
I'll probably wait until January...
and see what havoc is wreaked on my pay - but at this point there is just so much wreaking already...
I guess you'll have to wait for the TV version then

Wait'll you've been in it for THREE decades,

You know what they say, if you don't like the weather in Ky - wait 5 minutes, it'll change - i
nice to see rain and maybe they will release our water restrictions, of course, now I don't need to water my lawn but maybe washing my car would be nice.
I do. I guess I'll wait a few mintues before disconnecting from the VPN
after I close out EXText. I guess I'm just in too big of a hurry to shut down when my shift is over!
It ain't worth it - you'll make about
$11.00 an hour and no bennies. After 25 years of doing this people are still making crappy money!
16 hrs/day, 5 days a week?.....so you...sm
so what you're saying is you work 16 hours a day, 5 days per week, and so all you do is sleep and work? I don't get it.....have you no life whatsoever, besides work and sleep? *curious* not meaning to sound rude......
7 days a week.

I go to the gym 4 days a week for 2 hours
each. I do 1/2 hour on 2 different machines and then go use the weights for the last hour. I had a trainer when I first joined and he taught me a lot about how to change my routine but his favorite job was the torturing. The gym has a day care that costs me $10 extra a month so I usually go right after I finish work at 1. You need to make time to exercise. It was hard at first to get into it but I love it now.
2500 per day, 7 days a week. nm

I work 6 days a week- only 1 of these has - sm
weekend work and that is by choice - so I could have the weekend off too. Generally though I work Sunday; Saturday is the day we do things together; and Sunday mornings we usually go out and do something. So I have most of the weekend free to recharge and have fun.
I work 6 days a week....
I posted this before, but it got deleted somehow, so I'm sorry if this shows up twice. I work 6 days a week for about 4 hours a day. Sometimes it is 5 hours a day if the dictators are bad. I have found that since I have switched to this schedule, I am more productive since I am not so worn out, and I produce more per hour than I did when I was working an 8-hour day. But I must have at least 1 day off. I couldn't imagine working EVERY SINGLE DAY. Good luck! 
My 5-year-old goes to the sitter 3 days a week....sm
4 if I need her to. The 1-2 days she's home I have lots of arts and craft things for her to do and she'll play with her toys. I do take frequent breaks to check on her when she's here. She is allowed to watch TV 2 hours a day so she'll usually pop in a movie while I'm working or watch PBS.
Clarification: 1200 lpd x 5 days/week...
1200 lpd x 5 days/week =
MQ: $0 incentive
Spheris: $24 incentive/week
I type 16 hours 5 days a week
No cause I want to. Took a part-time job hoping to work into full-time, however, don't make enough with it after 1-1/2 years to make it full-time, so I'm still doing both jobs.. I guess I'm a glutton.. Would like one job to make that amount.
How many days a week does your manager work? sm
Do you hear from them 7 days a week, 6 days a week, 5 days or what?
I work 7 days a week -- see message
I work 7 days a week. I work 30 hours Monday through Friday and 4 hours on Saturday and Sunday. I start at 3 a.m. through the week. Weekends are my time to sleep in -- LOL. I don't start until 5 a.m. My production is way up. I just can't do 8 hour days. I felt like I spent my 2 days off running errands and cleaning.
I have 2 kids who are school age. When I finish my shift, I go back to bed for a couple hours, get up, shower, and eat lunch. Three days a week I go to the gym for an hour and get home just in time for them to start getting home from school. The other days I use to clean house and run errands. It just seems I get more accomplished and have more time to do the things I enjoy with this schedule.
On the weekends, by the time I finish up everyone is just beginning to get up, so I don't feel like I miss out on any weekend time with my family.
August 24th. Can't wait for those bigger paychecks I'll get when I have fewer interuptions!
I've said it before and I'll stay it again, there is absolutely no added worth to being a CMT.
It is a waste of nearly $300 and it serves little or no purpose. You maybe get a penny more a line from a handful of services. That's it. Does it sound like it's worth it to you?
Furthermore, you'd be giving your hard earned money to an organization that advocates offshoring American MT jobs. They even recently were asking American MTs to volunteer their time and pay their way on a $4000 trip to China to train the Chinese to take our jobs.
Then there is the whole problem with the ever-changing BOS. Just when we learn their rules, they go and change them on us and make us all pay 90 bucks for the newest edition.
Uhem, sorry. This subject tends to get me fired up. The short answer would be -- No, it isn't worth it at all.
And then consider when you work 9 hours a day 7 days a week...that adds up to way TOO much!
Doing wrong? Probably only working 80 hours a week 6 days.
Grand jury, 1-2 days a week for 13 months . . .
Yup, 1-2 days ever week for a year, in another city, and they held us over another month.
It was a wonderfully educational experience, though. You'd be amazed at what you can learn from it! Check fraud, postal theft, computer crimes, money laundering, wire fraud, drug smuggling, kidnapping, piracy. Seriously.
You'd be amazed who turns up in the cases, too. It completely changed the way I think about people and businesses.
Hello? With a week notice you can't sock in 3 days of food and water?

2-1/2 hours a day, 1300 lines/day, $150 a day, 7 days a week, IC status

I dont mind working 1 of the weekend days every week.
I just figure people get sick and doctors have to work them..
I prefer working a shorter shift 6 to 7 days a week. SM
I work hard when I work to put out a lot of lines per hour, which is very tiring. Also, my company has a work flow/volume problem, and this allows me to schedule my hours for those times when work is most likely to be available.
Regarding having a life, in a 24-hour day, subtracting say 8 hours for sleep leaves 16 hours, and subtracting 6 hours for work leaves 10 hours every day for "life," a luxuriance of time if you don't have young children or other heavy responsibilities filling them with other work.
The trick (sometimes it is a trick!) is be firm with yourself, and others, and get the work out of the way briskly and on schedule, such as those early-morning or evening and split schedules, and not drag it out through the entire day, sandwiched in between TV shows, phone chats, family duties, and so on.
I type around 2300-2600 lines a day, 5 days a week.
Yeah, it does come out to $6,000 a year.
Yeah, many of us do it on a regular basis.
Yeah, it is worth it to me.
No, there is no magical single tip that can give you that kind of production.
No, I'm not interested in talking about production with anyone because all I ever get back is all the reasons you can't do it. So, if that's your mindset, you're exactly right - you can't do it.
My experience pays off for me and having the CMT gives me an extra income boost (which I save and makes a tidy nest egg padding) and the CEUs are very, very educational and worthwhile.
I figure if a week has gone by, forget it. But 1 recruiter did take 10 days recently to get back

Won't be installing it for a week but I'll google it. nm

Give it up and enjoy your vacation! They'll live w/o you for a few days.You're allowed! :) nm

Is selecting expansions from a list a hassle?
With Instant Text how do you choose the expansion you want from the list at the bottom of the screen? Do you use the mouse to click on it? Do you use the arrow keys on the keyboard?
Give them a week's written notice...I'll be leaving xx/xx, please forward final check to . t
why would you have to say anything else?
I did that with 2 kids with time mgmt and a high school girl who babysat 3 days a week after school

I work 7 days a week because I work 3 jobs.
Workaholic here who would seek counseling if I had the time. hahaha
Anyone work 7 days a week with shorter work
I have arthritis in a couple of places, and I'm having a lot of trouble making it rhrough 8-hour days, even with split shifts, and I end up working most weekends anyway to make up for my decreasing production durng the longer days. I'm wondering if I should just commit to seven 5-1/2 hours days and be done with it.
Is there engineer week? Astronaut week? Veterinarian week?

Blue Cross/Blue Shield or Mutual of Omaha - Which company pays off claims the best w/o hassle?

30 hours divided by four days equals seven-hour days. Most of us have to work pretty much every day

Since you are new, just wait. Newbies have to wait. sm
Just because you said a "doctor's office" that narrows it down. No national work for private doctor's offices. It is all acute care. Just wait. They will let you know how you are doing.
But you WILL have to smell their pot. :) nm

2000 low days, 4000 busy days
Did 43,000 lines last month. 6 doctors.
You can "make a living" if you work 16-hr days, 7 days
and if you rarely buy anything but food and the barest essentials in clothing. My balancing act is so precarious that all it'll take is one of life's little disasters (rent increase, sick pet, major car repair) to pull the rug out from under me. Not a good feeling at all.
Typically this week is a slow week in lots of places
because it is a big vacation week. Typically things slow dow a bit in the summer too because people are putting off elective surgery, but at the same time lots of people going on vacation so it should balance out.
