yea, i noticed that, but i knew what you meant. : )
to the person who says that basically happiness is a psychological thing, well, you are basically right. BUT (and yes, my BUTT is BIG), as much as i try, its REALLY hard to be happy when your income has gone from occasionally, maybe, hitting $1500.00 per month to now if i'm luck just slightly over $1200.00 per month. my bills (not including groceries) are $1300 or $1400 per month. you do the math. i'm seriously suffering here and i'm looking and looking, applied to 5 or 6 jobs last week, some part-time, some full-time. nothing so far. i even posted on craigs list to do odd jobs for people. i'm getting desperate. i understand why people become criminals. its not because they are insidiously bad people. they are just at the end of their rope. we are going to see a lot more of this if our economy continues this way, which i think it will. but i digress.
the other companies may indeed be as bad as MQ. but that doesn't make MQ not bad. they are part of the problem, not part of the solution. we need more Jerry Maguires out there, CEOs who actually CARE (gasp!) about the people who work for them, and pay them a liveable wage. its down right shameful how much money these people make at our expense. we should rise up and do something. unfortunately, they've got us right where they want us....too poor and tired to do anything but barely survive.
hang onto your spouses, those of you who have a 2 person income. you would not be able to make it alone at MedQuist.
