So much typing -.- by J.J on 02-26-2005 at 01:11 PM

During the week my uncle came over and asked me if i could type something up for him. He said he'd pay me $80, and i was like ok ill take that :) i mean, who wouldn't, thats 80 bukarooniez to spend ;)

He said there was alot to type, but i didn't realise how much until he showed me the documents i had to do :|.......my god there was 16 documents each with 2-3 pages FULL of words from top to bottom...i was working on it all day! i wish i had never said yes...

I can tell you that i'll never be doing something like that ever again...

P.S some of you may think that 40 pages isnt much to type in a day, but for me thats alot :P

You should have just scanned them and used OCR to put them into a word document ;)

My cousin was telling me to scan it, but i didn't think i was able to change the scanned document :undecided:

Apparently there's a program that changes your scanned stuff into text in word...if only i knew before :P

oh well...

I used Abbyy FineReader to scan some stuff for the school last year, and it really helped, not free though :/

Well, since it was 20$ an hour, if it took you 8 hours you should've took 160$ - according to him ;)
