I beg to disagree, but unless you are not a professional translator, those rates are damaging to everybody's business, yours in Mexico and mine in the UK. Believe me, there is always someone who can go lower than you, so rather than going for 0.015 USD/word (which is frankly insulting), you should advocate for a decent fare where everybody wins. Anyways, I think I will leave Upwork for good this time.
