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.   

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. 

It's so hot, I may just work instead. 

I have over 8 years experience in clinic transcription.  Any companies out there that hire for weekend work only?  Must be at least 8 cents a line.

 I work Tues-Sat normally as this was the time slot my employer needed coverage for.  However, I work for a very flexible company.  They are great.  I really hate the idea of working all day Saturday so they let me break it up over the weekend any way I chose.  I, like most of you, have a family and life outside of work but the good Lord  was smiling on me when he let me become a part of the company I now work for.  They are very flexible and will really work with you on schedules without penalizing you if you need time off for pretty much any reason as long as you give them warning that you need to be off as well as make up your hours.  I think the bottom line out there is that you are going to be treated as a professional if you behave as a professional (at least in my experience).  Anyway, my 2 cents worth.  I am finally back with a company that allows me to produce quality work and feel like I am a person and not a drone as well as being compensated as I should be with my transcription experience. 

Do you work on national holidays if they fall on Friday or Monday? Thanks in advance.

*this is a repost. don't know what happen with my other post.

We are even getting some in our small town of Ruidoso.  I can't believe the negative postings I'm reading on this board regarding these unfortunate people.  I'm really surprised.
