I worked for MQ all the odd hours they needed me to, weekends, evenings, anything it took to pick up the slack. Now they send updates begging people to work, offering bonuses and the work is still packed up. Why? They have driven away a lot of the good MTs who NEEDED to work and are left with part timers who aren't really dependent on MQ for a living. People who are full time supporting themselves couldn't afford to stay with MQ drowning in the cesspool making half of what they made previously. MQ has really screwed up and it's going to be hard to find MTs because MQ can't be trusted to take care of MTs interests.
