Is This What we Get??

Decipher's journey for the hardworking cannot be compared entirely to "Barbados" life. For some of us in Guyana, we reminisce when this newborn industry was the challenge that would catapult us into a career and into the global arena. The pride we felt at our desks was unmatched, though the frustrations flared and tears flowed from late nights and early morning hours of "indecipherable" transcription, the hope we felt was stronger. The will to make this work for us and to see our company go forward, advance and prove our labor an investment. We saw down the road what we would become, where we would be and what we knew in our hearts we were. Pioneers!!!! we hummed under our breaths, with amazing talent and ripe with knowledge and experience, able to "kick ass" even in the face of unrewarded accomplishments. We were too blind with love for this profession and the will to survive and make it viable, that we were taken for a ride.

Four years down the road, it comes to this. Our dreams withering, and hearts broken, cries unheard. What we have worked for has been taken away, maybe even realized in a different place with different people. Somewhere, near or far, someone is smiling, but it is not the few of us that started this whole thing, with sweat and tears and memories.
