Most who come on this board wanting advice or help are only interested in the "secret" to getting that part-time job making $40,000/year with no experience or education. THAT JOB DOESN'T EXIST.
Take the time to read all current and November posts on the Main Board and the New MTs board. There IS some good, realistic advice there, but you'll have to read ALL the posts to find it. If you're not willing to do that kind of research and be that thorough, you're probably not cut out to be an MT.
There are no quick answers, no easy-ins, no easy jobs in MT. We work very hard and are required to actually comprehend what the dictators are dictating in order to catch their mistakes, VR's mistakes, and prevent our own mistakes, and we have to do it at lightning speed. MT has always been stressful work, it's just that now we get to do it for half the pay.
