Health Problems Being An MT

Posted: Sep 11, 2014

I'm a relatively new MT and already I'm having a constant ache in my arm and shoulder. It's a strange sensation that I can't really describe. Never had problems physically before until I began being an MT. However, it didn't come on until about a year and a half of being an MT. For those who have been an MT for,say, 20 years, I don't know how you do it. You don't get health problems from working at McDonald's or Wal-Mart, I don't think. Typing 8 hours 5 days a week, though, creates a problem. I didn't anticipate this. I also didn't anticipate making minimal wage. That's why I've made a goal to escape this for good by starting own business. It's not going to happen overnight, though. It will take at least a year to escape.;
