Activity Report

So, you might ask “where is the new chapter,” “when is the update,” and for people who I talked to in my discord last week who might ask “why no chapter this week”

Here is my activity report because I feel bad for saying nothing for so long (and also because I’ve some free time)

So I joined as a freelance in a black company with 3 months contract (due 15th july), I know perfectly they’re a black company, just I never expect it’s so black I can’t even take sick leave

I’ve been sick for the last 2 weeks, instead of letting me rest for a day or two for full recovery, the PiC of my division actually comes to my house and drag me off to the office, where I need to do my job as best as I can from the infirmary bed, this happens everytime I don’t say anything, or say I can’t wake up from my bed

No holiday btw, normal workers have weekend off, but the freelancers all need to comes in all day for 3 months, just with a lesser shift time sometimes

 

With this kind of schedule, I successfully finished c9 of goddess’s suffering, but unfortunately, because my PiC get my schedule wrong, where I should have finished chapters 79 of resummoned hero last friday, instead, I was in the very hot office without electricity or internet for 10 hours because the office supposed to open at evening, but I was told to comes in the morning, I can go home, but it’s a waste of transportation money, so I end up sleeping in the guard office

I’ve time yesterday, but I guess I’m too fatigued, so I sleep for 18 hours straight, instead of my original plan of 13 hours sleeping with 5 hours translating and catching up to some novel (I do have 50 line of very liberal translation translated at a 1.x line per day rate, just 100 line left, after that I need to fix those liberal translations to a more proper one)

 

Well, I’m very sorry for the lack of update, just know that these months of lack of update is not caused by laziness (the weekly ones might be caused by laziness though, and I admit my speed drop compared to last year mainly because of laziness), but because my mess up on reading the line between my contract

 

Btw, I can’t leave the company, the cost of terminating the contract is equal to 2.5 months of my salary, so I’ve no choice but to finish it, the pay is super great though, that’s why I join even though I know it’s black company

 

Just for a little side note, the leftover money from this job will be used to take a proper japanese course for my reading enjoyment, but will also affect my translation job

  1. Thanks for the update. I was afraid I would be dropping this one in the stalled folder….. lost a couple other good ones this month too.
    Just remember though, money’s no good to you if you’re dead.

  4. Take your time and, once you escape from the hellish cycle, find some time to come back to TLing if you want to. Hope your situation gets better, and don’t bother working your life out of yourself; you still got the rest of your life to live after that job (money or no money…. but preferably with money).
