You are absolutely right, Flash! I had a horrendous shop on Tuesday. A bank shop that took 35 minutes for the visit portion last month took an hour and forty-five minutes this time. I was really late getting back to work (I scheduled this for my lunch break) and was totally frustrated with the process because I had a narrative heavy report that was going to take another hour or so to type up. The job was not as lucrative as I had originally planned.
However, I took a look at my spreadsheet that night and averaged out my booked income against time spent working MS and realized that I wasn't doing too bad on an hourly basis after all.
I used to see a life coach pretty regularly.... back when they were called bartenders.
