Another Short Note

[Kathleen Russell]

Things are moving right along, slowly. When you're job hunting, how many placed applications for positions or overflow work assignments, full or part time, is the average now days?

[Kathleen Russell]

Jennie,

Thank you for your comments.

What kind of work am I looking for? I'll tackle that first, Scopist is preferred.
I like the structured formating and the idea of putting my recent study course
to good use.

As far as how busy I want to be, that's flexible.
What I can say is that earning around $100 per week would round out the
short fall with the retirement income.

I have no delusions of getting rich while transcribing from my little corner of the world,
however, a comfort zone would be nice.

I don't know if there can be an average on how many applications you put out there to seek jobs.

I kind of equate it to fishing. Sometimes you throw the line in, and you get a bunch of bites, and then there are other times you may throw the line in, and there ain't even a nibble.

How busy do you want to be? How many pages are you looking for per week? Maybe you could find a company that is willing to give you enough pages that you won't need to look elsewhere, though I always have said to never put all your eggs in one basket.

What I am trying to say is that once you define how busy you want to be, then you may find the right company/companies willing to work with you on a long-term basis.

What kind of work are you looking for?
