Brain rot? - Is it just
Posted: Dec 26, 2012
me? I am working MT part time and another job part time and can't remember ANYTHING at my other job. I am wondering if maybe I am just too used to being able to look things up at my fingertips or if editing has made my memory more reliant on recognition versus more active remembering, or maybe I'm just overloaded. Anyone else noticed memory problems developing in this business?
brain rot - tired old MT
[ In Reply To ..]Actually, darn it, the older I get, the worse my memory gets, and it isn't just work, and it seems that I haven't gotten any wiser either.
Brain rot - me too.... - another oldie
[ In Reply To ..]I think just staring at the screen and inserting a comma here and there and cleaning up the rest of it is ruining ability to recall. I couldn't even remember how to spell turbinates the other day - terbinates? It puts your major thinking processes "out to lunch."
My brain is not - rotten... It is the
[ In Reply To ..]work that is rotten. Just imagine if you were a carpenter and had to spend all day pounding nails with a wrench.
I haven't been able to type 3 words in a row lately - w/o making an error sm
[ In Reply To ..]I definitely need a couple of days off to get my engines refired!
Yes, that - sounds about
[ In Reply To ..]like what is going on with me. I have become a recognition machine rather than an active participant. Scary. But yeah, getting older too...that doesn't help.
