Yes, I am very annoyed and frustrated.
I really hate to be a tease, but I also really can't write more about the specifics in public, for my own protection.
But what I can say is this: For practical purposes, I'm actually working two jobs right now. The one that actually requires thinking is the informal one, and it requires so much thinking that it's the kind of thing that requires much more energy than I have at the end of an eight-hour day endlessly flipping through exam papers (not to mention that it would probably pay at least twice - no, three times - as much because of that requirement of actual thinking). It's a massive linguistic headache of epic proportions - to the point at which I'm doing much more than simply editing, but it's not translating either because the writing is, strictly speaking, already in English.1

1 If anyone can think of an appropriate 'job title' for this kind of thing, please let me know, so that I can put it on my CV. Thanks. It feels a bit like technical writing but I have no idea what that actually involves.
