1) see a professional, their consults are free.
2)LISTEN to the professional once you see them.
3) Put aside pride.
4) If you DO have to declare, prepare for a bumpy ride. Life changes.
5) If they say to do something else besides going bankrupt, it's not easy, prepare yourself for life changes.
6) FIND SOMEBODY OTHER THAN US TO TALK TO! Get into counseling, a group meeting, a church group, find somebody to talk to. Either way, it's a lonely thing, being in this position.

What do you want a medallion of honor?
Whoa, you did 1900 lines. That means you must have been working an awful long time. I find it hard to believe considering you have had time to come on here all day with your multiple alter egos. What makes you think you are the only one who can transcribe and make money? That is what we do for a living. Get with it. We have all made money today.

No. I don't want a medal of honor.
I want you to find a job you are happy with and shut up. Be productive. Enjoy yourself.

I want you to stop feeling sorry for yourself. You have everything you need to change your life. I want you to realize that.

I didn't work that long to get my production either, just 9 hours. That's what I usually do. It's what I WANT to do.

I'm an MT, not a recruiter. Scouts honor! nm

Anytime a company does not honor its own paydates,
I would never give a 2nd chance to miss it.

If you have anything in writing or email, I would take that to an attorney. They owe you money. You were given a paydate and they failed to pay. I would also take to the attorney a list of dates/times you tried to contact management, who you were trying to contact, at what number/address, and the response you received.

Not honoring paydates is a zero tolerance issue in my book.

I would make sure at the very least to contact the Better Business Bureau and file a complaint.

Good luck.

Also those old vows I took, love, honor and OBEY just do not cut it.
I don't obey any man. Men are totally stupid. I will be their best friend and work with them, but I will not have them running my life. I took those vows as they used to not offer any other when I was married a long time ago. Some men are still under the belief those vows are there. Not!

That's right. Based on the honor system. Makes sense then

I'll go! I'll go!! I won't take hormones and will be ready to defend your honor :) n/m
