In Reply to: If you believe editing is a HIGHER skill, then why are we being paid - LESS per line instead of MORE!
I do not think that editing is a higher skill, it is different. I reject the idea that a l l editing, esp. VR, goes faster than straight transcribing. It all depends on the 'quality' of the VR.
If the quality is bad, it takes even m o r e time to correct it than typing it straight from dictation.
And I dislike the idea that one line VR is paid only half of one line straight transcription.
As said, it depends on the quality of the draft document received on the screen. My experiences till now were not good.

Question was for MissIndigo
She said she stayed put for 2 hours (I believe) and what her line count was. I just wondered how much better it was than normal.
Sorry for the confusion. :)
