But doesn't it help us avoid burnout > if we have the help of others? Normally, yes, but part of my issues come from "having" to lead a group of translators. When you do, you receive lots of translations for review, and their qualities are quite different. Being an unpaid volunteer, I have to make the job its own reward. Add that I have a perfectionistic streak, so what came out of my hands had to be perfect to be worth its while. So, I had to fix every issue and started to lose my patience, to think that it'd be faster if I had done it myself, etc., etc. Eventually that wore in and I got burnt out. Now I don't even want to be near a translation team :-) (There are other issues, but they don't have to do anything with me personally, but with politics, and I don't want to discuss them publicly). -- Jacobo Tarrío | http://jacobo.tarrio.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
