Here's a "how yuuuu doin" for W2 - miffedmt

Our hospital was outsourced to Nuance December 14, 2011; I went to work for said company January 2012. I made EXACTLY $30,000 LESS this year. Can you say FOOD STAMPS!!! I know this is a pity party for myself but this is just ridiculous. All I can say is thank god this is just a 2nd income for us to help pay the bills. I am truly humbled by those of you who do this as a single source of income. These companies have GOT to pay us better, for something we went to school for, but I know that is a LONG shot at best. I am really hating corporate America!

30k less, really? - anon

If you don't mind me asking, how much did you make last year -- that you made $30k less this year? I would be in the negative if I made 30k less... as I think most people here would.

This was my first full year with N (having been outsourced to N after working in-house for a hospital in AK for 16 years!!!!) and was making 53-54K a year there. I know I'll never see that kind of wage again, but I start a new job (in-house clinic) making $17 an hour the first of the month. I so can't wait to dump this company!! The stress isn't worth it and neither is the pay! I can make more working a half a day in OT at the new job than I can working ALL day for N!!!! These MTSO's can go to ___!

Just wondering if anybody's really kicking butt doing MT online. I'm currently employed as an MT making $16 an hour with good health insurance, but the workload has become pretty intense as of late (plus, it's only about 75% of what I used to make at my old job). It would be great to get out of that office, if I thought I could do as well online. Opinions? Anybody willing to post what they're really making? Also, are you able to cut & paste, ...
