D: So thirty or forty thousand dollars .
E: Yeah .
B: Well , for ten thousand dollars .
C: So , meanwhile D: Oh .
D: What Well , it was thirty times B: Three hundred .
A: Three hundred dollars an hour .
D: Oh , I 'm sorry ,
D: three hundred .
D: Right ,
D: I w got an extra factor of three there .
A: Right .
C: So it 's thirty dollars an hour , essentially , right ?
D: Yeah .
C: But we can pay a graduate student seven dollars an hour .
C: And the question is what 's the difference B: How how much lower are they ?
C: or ei eight dollars .
C: What do you know what the going rate is ?
C: It 's it 's on the order of eight to ten .
E: I think uh that would give us a a good good estimate .
C: I think .
C: But I 'm not sure .
E: I 'd I 'd say B: Ten .
E: yeah , I was gonna say eight E: you 'd say ten ?
C: Let 's say ten .
B: Yeah , give them a break .
D: The - these are not for engineering graduate students , right ?
C: Cuz it 's easier .
A: Right ,
A: these are linguistics grad students .
D: That 's right .
C: Yeah , I I I don't I don't know what the I don't know what the standard A: Six .
C: but there is a standard pay scale
C: I just don't know what it is .
E: Yeah , that 's right .
A: Mm - hmm .
E: That 's right .
C: Um ,
C: so that means that even if it takes them thirty times real time it 's cheaper to to do graduate students .
E: And there 's another aspect too .
A: I mean , that 's why I said originally , that I couldn't imagine sending it out 's gonna be cheaper .
B: No , it isn't .
E: The other thing too is that , uh , if they were linguistics they 'd be you know , in terms of like the post editing , i uh tu uh content wise they might be easier to handle
B: So .
E: cuz they might get it more right the first time .
A: And also we would have control of I mean , we could give them feedback .
A: Whereas if we do a service it 's gonna be limited amount .
E: Mmm .
B: Yep , yep .
E: Good point .
A: I mean , we can't tell them , you know , " for this meeting we really wanna mark stress
B: Yep .
A: and for this meeting we want "
B: No .
E: Good point .
A: And and they 're not gonna provide they 're not gonna provide stress ,
A: they 're not gonna re provide repairs ,
A: they 're not gonna provide A: they they may or may not provide speaker ID .
A: So that we would have to do our own tools to do that .
E: Mm - hmm .
A: So B: Yeah .
D: Just hypoth hypothetically assuming that that we go ahead and ended up using graduate students .
A: I just D: I who who 's the person in charge ?
D: Who 's gonna be the Steve here ?
D: You ?
A: I hope it 's Jane .
E: Oh , interesting .
A: Is that alright ?
E: Um , now would this involve some manner of uh , monetary compensation
E: or would I be the voluntary , uh , coordinator of multiple transcribers for checking ?
A: Um , I would imagine there would be some monetary involved
A: but we 'd have to talk to Morgan about it .
B: Yeah ,
B: out of out of Adam 's pocket .
C: Yeah .
E: OK .
D: You know , it just means you have to stop working for Dave .
E: Oh ,
D: See ?
E: I don't wanna stop working for Dave .
D: That 's why Dave should have been here .
D: To pr protect his people .
A: Well , I would like you to do it
E: Oh , cool .
A: because you have a lot more experience than I do ,
E: Yeah .
E: Uh - huh .
A: but if if that 's not feasible , I will do it with you as an advisor .
D: W we 'd like you to do it
E: We 'll see .
D: and we 'd like to pay you .
D: Not being Morgan though , it 's E: OK .
B: Yeah .
E: Oh , I see .
C: Right .
B: We 'd like to .
E: Well B: Unfortunately D: Yeah .
A: Yeah , six dollars an hour .
E: Yeah .
E: Yeah , I see .
C: That 's a E: OK .
D: And and then E: Boy , if I wanted to increase my income I could start doing the transcribing again .
B: Yeah , that 's right .
D: an an an and be and be sure and say , would you like fries with that when you 're thinking about your pay scale .
B: Yeah .
E: I see .
E: Good .
E: Yeah , no , that I I would be interested in that in becoming involved in the project in some aspect like that A: OK .
A: More .
