Translation is not a hobby, but...

I have said it before, and I will say it again. Translation is not a hobby for me. I take it seriously. From the smaller assignments I may be given at work, to the more complex ones that require painstaking research. From the pro bono projects I have done, to the ones that involved a nice paycheck.

Then again, it might be easier if it was.

What are your thoughts on the matter?
