 Any suggestions on what to do for that mid-afternoon slump? I get so blah about this time of day, it's all I can do to stay awake.

Mid afternoon slump
Thanks for the suggestion. Sounds good to me! Now if I can get my hubby to go to the store for me. I'm to try anything at this point. I think my biological clock thinks I'm supposed to have an afternoon siesta.
any suggestions on how to get out of the slump of sm
transcription boredom?
It seems like a lot of companies are out of work. Could it just be a slump? Are there any with sm
a lot of work? I am afraid to leave little work at MQ for no work somewhere else.
Duh - 4 o'clock slump - How do you write 6 million 10 thousand nm

Yep! Especially late afternoon.. nm

Working until this afternoon, then
cooking, eating, watching movies. I made the stuffing yesterday, all I have to do is put it in the oven, along with other goodies.

I told my Mom just that this afternoon
I typed 2000 lines yesterday and it only took me 6 hours and that averages to be 30.00 an hour...I can't make that working outside of the home...I get paid full-time wages but only work part-time...that would never happen outside of the home either...I am so thankful for my job...no complaining here
Do you know any males you can "borrow" for the afternoon?
It's really hard to do this, but congrats on wanting to! If you can borrow a male, even a 20-something, it seems to make a difference in these kinds of atmospheres, and you get better, more honest answers.
Had a car-buying experience when I was married, the husband came with me when it came time to sign on the dotted line. We found the car, negotiated the deal and I signed. Husband went to his 2nd shift job and I waited while they prepped the car.
Unbeknownst to me, someone else made a slightly better bid on the same car a few minutes later, and since I was alone by that point, waiting, they kept me on the hook 2+ more hours, had me talk to a loan officer with some sad story (we already had the financing)and generally tried to make me back off on the signed contract, AFTER the husband was gone.
I sat and watched soaps for 2 hours, kept my cool, they finally got tired of the run-around, and I drove away smiling in MY new car. The dorks.
So, borrow a guy for a few hours, from somewhere reliable, and have a BALL while you do this!
I agree...call the afternoon before just to be sure...nm

I work afternoon/evenings and 1 day wkend
but that is ok with me as my home situation fits that. I am sure there are places that have days but it seems like most places are going for the 1 day per weekend work situation.
My daughter's elementary school was on lock down yesterday afternoon cause some freak in a red S
truck drove onto school property behind the school (where the playground is) and tried to get some kids on recess to get into his truck! Thankfully the teachers on recess duty were paying attention and gathered all the kids back into the building and the school went on lock down. The police showed up within minutes, but the guy took off before they got there. So now they are looking for him. The news was parked in front of my house most of the morning this morning. I live directly across the street from the school.
It's just scary out there. My daughter who is in kindergarten was matter of fact about the whole thing. All she said when she gave me the note from the principal telling parents what happen was "It was for real mom. We thought it was a drill, but it was for real." Then I thought what a sad state this world is in when our schools have lock down drills now in addition to fire and tornado drills.
I live in a small town too and had a false sense of security until the Amish news and until yesterday. It seems like you simply aren't safe anywhere anymore.
