My last day of proofing at a company on Friday, July 19, 2013. My husband asked if he should take my computer outside and shoot it. Yep! It was that bad! So I needed to resign for my sanity, as well as my family's sanity, but I am still a bit sad. I really enjoyed proofing--ensuring files were delivered to clients with great quality, I liked most of my co-workers, and helping (most) of the typists along to become better transcriptionists...
I had been proofing there for a little over two years. It was a great opportunity that came along at a time when my family needed money the most. To be completely honest that is the main reason why I applied for the position. Some of you may think that that's the worst reason, but we were really desperate. However, after the first week or so it wasn't so much about the money anymore. The people that I worked with were, for the most part, awesome and I was helping other transcriptionists and all the while the clients were happy! Somewhere along the way I began to deviate from just doing my work and took notice of others work. It was all down hill from there :(
Then the changes happened...ugh! I really think things would have been better without the changes! Well, I would still be proofing anyway. I admit that I really don't handle change well and the older I get the harder it seems to be. Change in my life has always meant divorce or death so, yeah, change = bad. It seems that I care too much about a lot of things and my heart is always out in the open to be shattered :(
I still type for the company and have a couple other contracts. Just hoping that not "seeing" all the little nuances or whatever, and having more free time will help.
