My treat to myself today was downloading the test files for a new job!! It's not in MT though, but I think that it's going to be good.
I think I'm getting burned out... I can't believe I'm saying that after 15+ years of loving being in the biz with 12+ of those here at MQ. It's not just the garbage we've been going through with MQ that has given me no will to work lately, I'm really getting tired of sloppy dictators! It seems anymore like every single report has something wrong with it... it's either an ESL dictator, a careless sloppy dictator, volume so low you can't hear, so much background noise, etc. It never used to be this bad.... even the old tapes used to be better than most of this digital stuff we have now. And sure, we'd get those few bad dictators with every facility, but this past year or so I have run across very few dictations that I have enjoyed transcribing... so if it isn't the MT field in general that's getting worse, then I am definitely getting burned out and it's time to move on.
Hopefully getting back into other forms of transcription will renew my love for my profession again.... but I am also aware that it could possibly send me running back to MT quickly, who knows?!!
I can't wait to get to my test files this weekend and see what I think.
You and all have a very Happy Valentine's Day and enjoy whatever ''treats'' you get or give to yourselves!! |
