Been doing a bit of Duo Lingo every day for the past 40 days. I know it’s not proper language learning, but it’s all I can manage at the moment. It also appears to be sticking! (More or less.) https://t.co/AVsuWeZLNa
I often have to do transcription as part of my job and that is an insanely low rate of pay for something that takes a transcriber a significant amount of time. Audio where multiple people are speaking can take even longer.
rev advertises itself as being one of the cheapest transcription services around. a flat rate of $1 per audio minute!
you: 🤔 but in order to be profitable, they must pay transcriptionists less than that.
yes that is correct!!!
Huge and crucial thread.
Anyone who’s ever transcribed anything ever, be prepared to turn your stomach at the rates being offered (and then slashed) for this brutal work. https://t.co/O4HUjFaQps
