Can you listen and type? And, do you have anything on your resume that would lend credence to your ability to listen and type?
I had a friend a few years back who did corporate transcription. Unlike medical transcription, you didn't need any kind of certification to do the work. She made very good money at it. I was in a job that was starting to hit the skids and she suggested picking up transcription work. I tried to apply, but everything on my resume at that time was food and beverage management, so the supervisor gave me short shrift. If you have any kind of a clerical background or an English degree you might consider checking it out. Lately I've considered re-applying now that I'm in a more "legitimate" position.
And no one grew into anything new, we just became the worst of what we were."
