Hi everyone

I was offered a job as Russian language interpreter on a military base in Arizona. I've never had such an experience, so I don't know how much I am supposed to charge them. They want me to live there for a week and to be available 24/7. Room and board are included.

Any suggestions?

thanks!

Anyway you have to know military acronims and all the armament. How did you manage to obtain such an offer?
