My First Transcription Job

Just finished my first work as a transciptionist! Whooaaa! And mind you, I literally worked on a 15 minuted audio file for 4 hours! Four long hours! My back was aching and I can hardly sit on my chair. The first transcription job was about a guy who interviews a Spanish girl about how she uses her IPAD. It's a back breaking job indeed. But I'm happy. I'm happy though tired because I was able to finish my first job! From 2 am to 6 am I was working on that job. Took my breakfast and again worked on a 2 minute file...and it took me another 30 minutes! Waaah! I hope I get be used to it. If this would be my bread and butter next year, I need to be good at it. I earned P185 pesos today because a minute audio file transcription would earn me $0.25 and since I had 17 minute audio job done...I've earned a humble amount of $4.25 today. Not much but I'm so proud of myself! What a great day to spend my restday. By the way, I'll go back to work again tomorrow at 1:30 am. I hate my schedule! Hopefully, things will be better at work as well very soon. Will update you.
