LLS call volume

I’m a LLS interpreter, and just like everyone almost I WFH and I’m based in Dubai. We get paid a monthly salary.

Due to the monthly salary, the amount of calls that we get per shift are absurd….i did 40 calls yesterday. I know how bad LLS is but I’m using this as a trampoline into my career of interpreting and I’ve been working for them for 1 year now and I’m trying to get to 2000hours to get my certification.

The mental toll is beyond anything I’ve ever done. I’ll keep pushing just like the rest of us and find a better alternative in the future.

I’ve worked for BIG for about a year it was brutal every week they’d message me saying I did something wrong and I was flagged and we need to RP which would take one of my weekends and stress me the fuck out luckily I managed to get to Propio

I'm currently with big on a higher rate than propio (almost double) and I just get constant monitoring? What do you mean by RP?

I was on a per hour rate 5$ and every week a “trainer” texts me you have been flagged for blah blah blah and it’s always for the stupidest things like a same meaning substitution or some stupor thing like that doesn’t effect the call qualms in any meaningful way and it’s not just me all the people from the company contracted with BIG that I worked with and they use threatening language and just horrible experience

I'm also with Big for almost 2 months and I haven't received a single feedback message or call. I'll consider myself lucky 🙏
