hating it....

In Reply to: Okay, how many of you can truly say you still love being an MT?... - curious MT

I wish I could say that I loved it, but I am seriously thinking about getting a job back in the real world. I like the work, but staying at home is putting me in a depression. I am such a people person, and since I have been working from home (a little over a year), I have become anti-social. I actually have been offered a job in a laboratory, and I could be home before my kids are off the school bus. I am doing some serious thinking....

no said anything about hating (?) (sm)

It just occurs to me, maybe we should all be on the same playing field. Perhaps employers should offer the equipment to MTs willing to use it.

Then my point is, if that were to happen, can you imagine how many jobs that could weed out...

I would love to try it, only do not have the money to invest...maybe I will ask my employer if they would offer it to everyone...

Hating it...update
Already got a new job! Working part time in a lab/office. Yahoo! I feel the depression lifting already.

Hating Snakes
I would be totally freaking out too! Find it and kill it. I'd go to a hotel until you find the thing. Like you, I would be way scared. I hope that you find it, but in the meantime, you certainly have my sympathies.

to "rant on hating QA"

That's just plain tacky. Last time I checked we were all humans!

Shame on you. No schmooze here, but I thank holy hanna for QA based on many of the horrible reports I get! I hate sending them reports full of blanks, esp. having 20+ years experience!
