it may not be worthwhile; we'll see. What's good about it is that it sounds like the work is so easy, completely different from the medical work I was so bored with, speech that may lack perfect organization, but the speaker is speaking clearly so an audience can understand. So many of the MDs had given up on reports of quality and were just going through the motions of dictating reports, it seemed. And another thing is the complete flexibility. An email is sent when work is available, and you reply if you want it. The downside is that I may be at work when most of the work is offered, so others may beat me to it. What protects this work from VR is that you have to divide the text by speaker, and I guess a machine can't tell who is speaking and add the name. The rules sent out aren't exactly the same, but they don't look hard. Except the "rule" of "use fewer commas." Actually medical transcription companies tend to say that, yet nobody ever specifies which of the rules I learned to ignore. It' so vague, and not using all the commas makes it read so dumb to me.
