Good edit. I have sent many, many blessings to Sir Alexander Fleming. Without antibiotics I would have died last year.

The trouble is that most clients don't realize or acknowledge that. I now get offered the same work (technical translations in the environmental field) from old clients, except they want to deliver a machine pre-translated text and pay me half to a quarter of what they used to pay me just a couple years ago for a job that would likely take me longer to rework than it would to do it from scratch. Hard pass. My job is essentially dead now after 27 years in the business.
