 I'm an 18 year old British physically male person in Canada. I have been here for 6 years and have picked up a bit of the local accent. My raw accent is mostly British, with some western Canadian inflections here and there. Being an unemployed high school dropout with poor equipment and informal script reading form, I charge cheap rates for short and long scripts. I'm looking to get practice in this field but my rates will track the cost of living, not my experience. I'm an 18 year old British physically male person in Canada.

-My fee structure is as follows. At your option, if the price of the Euro on the day is more than 80 US cents, you may choose to have me charge in Euro rather than US Dollars, for the same numerical price. With a 15 cent per base time surcharge you can also pay in Canadian dollars (when the Canadian dollar is weak this is a good deal for Americans)+My fee structure is as follows.

With a 15 cent per base time surcharge you can also pay in Canadian dollars (when the Canadian dollar is weak this is a good deal for Americans). This accounting change will be automatically applied if the Canadian dollar is weak enough.
