I have had it with these idiots who can barely dictate for making smacking noises. That is right up there with burping/eating/peeing/chewing gum/driving/mumbling/groaning/ uhh, uhhh, uhhhh/playing with the dog/helping the kids with their homework while dictating. If dictators were held to the same standards of dictation that we are held to as MTs, only a handful would still be dictating. Let's cut THEIR pay when they are idiots and smack loudly after each word. Let's cut THEIR pay each time they do something disgusting while dictating and see how they like it. Let's cut THEIR PAY and not let them dictate until they take dictating classes. Do they not realize how stupid they sound? We are constantly being told do this, don't do that, use very constrained verbage when leaving a QA note, but NOTHING is ever said to the idiots dictating. I say send a report full of holes and leave a QA note stating the obvious: "Idiot talking."
