ear phones - old telephone cord - twisted
Posted: Nov 13, 2009
How do you keep your cord from twisting? Mine coils up like an old telephone cord.
Maybe - Twisted Sister

Though, I have not had this issue with ear phones, I always had the same problem with phones when I worked in offices. Someone pointed out to me that I flipped the phone around (somehow)when putting it to my ear, so after repeatedly doing so, my cord would be a twisted up nightmare. Try to make sure you are not rotate them when you put them on and off.

Lanier, Telephone Service Help-sm Jul 09, 2011I am not sure which area to put this, as it isn't technical assistance I need, so I've put it here on the main board.
I receive my work through a Lanier station. I have been through the ringer with my telephone service provider a few years ago and was eventually told that if I ever dial the number again I would be black listed and never be able to have any service from that company again (Windstream in 2007). I was eventually able to get in touch with the higher ups a ...
Are You A Telephone Communicator Or Email? How Often Do You Hear From Your MTSO? Sep 17, 2010As an MT, I avoid the phone like a hawk to everyone! Friends, family, and coworkers alike, during working hours and during non-working times as well. I HATE wasting my time talking on the phone period. To me, my time is valuable and equates to literally pennies on the line. Just wondering about how much communication you get from your MTSO and how much of it is actually pertinently top of the line necessary and/or how much can be weeded and cut out. Are you being micro-ma ...

C-phones Nov 20, 2012I work for a hospital in California on my C-phone. Over the last week, ever since Comcast demanded that I add a second line because I was using over 5000 minutes of long distance, I have not been able to dial into the hospital. I can call the hospital number (long distance) but when I get the prompts asking for my ID and password, the system will not take my information from the C-phone. Yet, when I call the 800 number (for emergencies only), my C-phone worked ...

C-phones Vs. Internet Platforms. Jun 12, 2010I think migrating from C-phones to Internet platforms was a mistake.
Over the years I have worked on both Lanier and Dictaphone C-phone accounts as well as about eight different Internet platforms. I'll take a C-phone account any day. C-phone accounts normally involve using a professional grade word processor like Word or Wordperfect rather than an amateurish proprietary thing that resembles a word processor but often lacks the features of a professional word processor.Addition ...

What Type Of Ear Phones Are MTs Using Nowadays? Jul 09, 2014What type of ear phones are MTs using nowadays? I keep breaking my head set (the wires break inside and I have to hold them just right to use them). It never occurred to me that the 15,000 (slight exag) ear buds I have in the house (young kids from every electonic ever known to man) has a set. They seem to work fine. Is there any reason not to use ear buds versus my old style stethoscope ear phones? EBAY actually had an ad for Apple ear buds for $2.99 including free shipping! I cou ...

On two occasions, I said something out loud, like what should have been a silent question (working at home too long, I now talk to myself, ha ha) but on BOTH occasions, my job emailed me the answer to my question within like five minutes of me saying it and I was just wondering.
