How can we edit/transcribe if the volume is highest on the computer, ear phone amplifiers are on, and we STILL CANNOT HEAR! If it comes straight typing and ASR cannot pick it up, why in heaven's earth does the doctor think I CAN HEAR. I cannot! Are these docs being passive aggressive... Oh they don't realize?! That is just MEAN, CRUEL. Forget that I have to make a living wage, but think about just plain RESPECT.
This vent brought to you by me getting too many dictations in a row in which the doc is whispering so quietly nothing can be heard. And I mean nothing.
Thanks for letting me get this off my chest.
Sincerely, an MT who is now testing her hearing b/c she is sure she has lost all ability to hear anything.
