When they first came out with the ASR and they were doing the trial basis and you had the option to not do it, I did the very same thing that you did. I may have given it 30+ days, don't remember anymore, and when I saw what a farce it was and how my pay was going to be affected I refused it just like you did and I've never looked back. If you're going to straight type anyway (deleting the ASR crap because it's just so ridiculous) you might as well get full benefit. But you get the crappy cream of the crop dictators who obviously wouldn't survive ASR so it's not like you're doing any better than anyone doing ASR. Where the H___ did common sense go to with this company and with dictators -- forget the written mountain of rules that we have to abide with -- what about just plain ole respect in everyday life?? Come on, docs, residents, PA's, etc., --can't ya even put yourself in the ears on the other side of your sloppy dictation -- would you want to hear that garbage -- I've always thought that they should have a mini course on dictation etiquette -- have the dictator do his usual style of how he dictates and play it back for them to hear -- it might not affect every one, but I'm sure that it would change some of the more conscientious dictators sloppy and disgusting way they dictate. Oh, I better stop, this could go on and on -- when I was living in a city where the group of hospitals whose dictation I did was there, I had the idea of actually going to that hospital with a poster stating something to the effect of Love a Transcriptionist and then put a list of things that would make our job easy (you know what those are so I won't take up space on that issue) and walk each floor to every nurse's station. Well, didn't do that -- probably would get arrested anyway for trespassing -- LOL -- I've said enuf -- all you bros and sis's have a good day and may wonderful dictation come your way and let's keep everyone who's in the path of Mr. GUSTAV in our prayers. |
