Interpreting Tests

You are interpreting a statewide high school test.  The teacher reads each question out loud and you interpret what he says.  You also have a test booklet so you can read the questions yourself.

A student asks you to repeat number 32, but the teacher is talking with someone else.  You go ahead and read the question, and interpret it from the booklet.

--Did you cross an interpreting boundary?
--Did you assume too much control over the teacher's classroom?
--Or, were you efficiently getting the information interpreted so the students could move onto the next question?

Do I stay or do I go?

You are sent to a long-term health care facility to interpret a 2 hour therapy session.  The session is over an hour into your gig.  Yeah, free to go!  But the Deaf client says, "I need you to interpret something else for me."  You follow him back to his hospital room where he just wants to chat with you.  He knows you have another hour your getting paid for--he said as much--and invites you to stay that hour with him.

--on one hand, you are getting paid, why not stay?
--on the other hand, you are getting paid to interpret, not to chat.  Why stay?
--the thing is, he doesn't have anyone to talk with and he is an interesting person.  Why not stay?
--but, its not your job to chat with clients; its your job to interpret.
