On any front - Just me


Posted: Nov 10, 2013

Here's my observation for a Sunday for what that's worth  Wink

No matter what aspect of Nuance you work in, be it MLS OR QC, you are never good enough, never fast enough, never perfect enough, you are not the mind reader they had hoped they had hired.   If you pore over a job to leave fewer blanks, you are too slow. If you try to meet production, you leave too many blanks.  Oh, and don't try to point out errors on the account specifics cuz chances are they will never get fixed, yet you are supposed to know them (once again the mind reading factor they failed to mention).   

As far as team leaders (once again for either MLS or QC) , they are bossy, pushy, self-sanctifying and not available for your questions, emails, phone calls (but don't you ignore them and their flood of endless email).   The ones that do not perform to this standard must be weeded out post-haste.

And a tidbit of humor for the day as well:  "Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress; but I repeat myself."
Mark Twain 

excellent summation - also... sm

Complete lack of appreciation for all we do and having heavy ESL accounts with extremely difficult dictators, for which they refuse to provide any samples. It's insanity.

addendum - Just me

As an addendum: For QC's, you either too harsh or not picky enough. There is no winning this game.

Never good enough. - burnedoutco

You said it well. I have gotten dinged for mistakes on their templates, some of which were actually not really mistakes, just what the QC thought it should be. So we have to correct the official templates now? Yes, and be a mind reader. I don't work extra because it is just too stressful. I get the vast majority of my "errors" reversed but it is just taking too much time.

Doctors And Front End SR
Apr 27, 2014

Hospital where I worked before being outsourced kept a friend of mine on for QA. Now they don't outsource at all. Using a program like Dragon and the doctor dictating has to edit his own report. And QA is auditing the doctors! If the report is not accurate, the doctor is written up. No more blaming the MT for their mistake. ...

DSS Voice File With A $ Sign In Front Of It?
Jul 29, 2011

I agreed to do some work in coverage for someone and the doctor sent files directly.  He uses an Olympus recorder that uploads on AS-4000 Pro Player platform.  Once uploaded, it sends each voice file out by encrypted email.  So I got the .dss file but it comes as .$dss In addition to the voice file, there is an .html file that contains the header information for the recording.  I downloaded the DSS Lite Player, but it doesn't recognize the file.  Before I start d ...

Webmedx Presents Award To Providers For Front-end Speech Implementation
Sep 17, 2010

This article was from July, I just found it. It may have been addressed back then, and if so I missed it. Here is one part of the article: "Currently in use at several Webmedx customer sites, the ability for physicians to capture documentation using front-end voice recognition and then self-edit their work reduces costs by 60% for every transcribed report."

Any Input Appreciated Re: Front-desk Optometry Office Work

I'm a former MT who decided I couldn't live "peaceably" with VR (LOL) and left MT a few months ago.  I've had some trouble finding a job outside of MT since then, though.  I'm willing to branch out, but I suspect that after many, many years of doing MT, some employers aren't willing to take a chance that I'd be happy long-term in a less-challenging job.  (The applications I most often get a response from are medical-type jobs.)  Maybe they'r ...
