You did your best. You made some mistakes. So we all make mistakes. Try to look at it from the brighter side - you learned something from the mistakes. Maybe that company is not really the one for you! Keep trying. I know you sound depressed, but don't be too hard on yourself. You will find a place where you fit. Let us know how it is going. You and your fellow MQ MTs have had a difficult time lately. Try not to be so hard on yourself. Good luck!

I am sorry you are so sad. Please don't give up on the MT profession or on yourself.
I can understand being nervous about it.
contact the wage/labor board?
Everybody gets nervous with testing.
One suggestion to manage testing was to make a list of all the places you could possibly test, and list them in order of how much you want the job. Then test first for the job you want least, then second least, and by the time you get through the list, you'll be a pro at testing. :oD
That would have made me nervous.. nm
Yes! I am a great MT but I get too nervous testing and do really bad!..nm

Slow learning curve...getting a little nervous.
I recently left the job I had had for over a decade because I had grown to HATE the company I worked for. Have moved to a different company, one with a very good reputation on this board. So I'm learning a new platform, new account, new dictators including lots of new ESL docs... and I'm learning acute care after many, many years of almost entirely clinic work. Please, somebody tell me I'm going to get up to speed someday. Hopefully someday soon. Back in the day I typed an average of 250 lines an hour.... My line count seems stuck for the last week or so at 140. I've been doing this job for 2 weeks now. The switch to acute care is really shaking my confidence... I'm realizing how much I didn't know for the many years I've been an MT. Just hoping for a little encouragement -- as my daughter would say, "an encouraging shoulder squeeze."  TY!
Unfortunately, this guy had a nervous breakdown and that gravy train came to screeching halt!
