A lot of fears are irrational, like the fear of gravity of the fear of long words. (Barophobia and Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia) I personally think that the fear of numbers is irrational.

It doesn't make sense for translation. We need professional translation companies, certified translators and proofreaders. It is the fault of management of the translation company.

Maar elke keer dat ik het verenigingsblad krijg, twijfel ik meer. De vereniging lijkt er haast uitsluitend voor tolken en juridisch vertalers te zijn, en dat ben ik niet. Voor de belangenbehartiging heb ik naar mijn idee meer aan verenigingen van/voor ZZP-ers, en voor de professionele en sociale netwerkcontacten gebruik ik mailinglists en sites als LinkedIn en Facebook.
