Globo, All you had to do is pay us enough to live
I am a Mandarin Interpreter working for Globo. They recently has been lowering rate by a lot in all languages and we have to either accept or leave.
As freelance remote contracters, it is really hard to organize and fight against them, but we cannot just let them do this.
I've been following Interpreters Voice on linkedin(https://www.linkedin.com/company/interpreters-voice/posts/), which has been taken down. But what they have achieved is quite inspiring:
And they have already attracted some attention:
We can do the same to Globo
I created a discord server https://discord.gg/bEjgYSqtp
Hope all of you will join me and help me collect all the information we need to fight against them.
We can achieve at least 2 things:
- Collect Globo's client information and explain to them what is happening.
- Organize a strike day to let them know that we are more organized than they knew.
If you still care about your career as an interpreter, please join and spread the information. This is for you, for me, for all of us.
Thank you for reading this.
