horrible sound and tone

Seems like it just happened overnight. Wasn't this bad yesterday. Sounds like they are talking through a big old thick sock. ...

Most of the dictations I'm getting sound raspy and crackling, with sound weaving in and out. I'm so on edge from straining to hear, I can't wait for this to be over. ...

in a new set of earphones and speakers. How about just addressing the problem with the client!! ...

Doctor is talking about a fistulotomy for a recurrent perianal fistula, s/l C-tone and says "possibility of insertion of a C-tone in case of high fistula. Is it C-tone or C-ton??? ...

From a neurology dictation. Thanks. ...

Patient with Parkinson disease. During exam, doctor dictates "Resting tremor in the left arm was noted with increased tone (s/l in-con-gwent-ly) in the left arm." She is a pretty clear dictator, but I am stumped on this. Any thoughts? ...

New Gastro doc. Sounds like he is saying: "Rectal tone is normal (s/l) 'oh-tuh-high'. There were no masses palpable." It sounds like he's saying it as one word. (No accent.) ...

Dictated on Neuro Exam: "Although she had no clonus, her tone was extremely brisk." I have typed Neuro for a long time and have never heard of brisk tone. Thanks in advance! ...

One crappy dictator after another. Poor sound quality and ESL. I want somebody who can talk clearly. ...

What goes on in India should stay in India. All that is there is horrid, absolutely a sin to ask anyone to make sense out of any of that. It is NOT English...surely NOT as I know it...nor anyone else. Believe me...I worked with an East Indian and she could not understand them either. Total waste of time. This work should be given triple pay and NO count for errors. Lucky anyone tries. ...

OMG, what a horrible time I'm having. This pay I'm not even averaging my minimum. All around the country again. What happened to lock down? I thought I sent 2 reports to QA but forgot to mark the QA box. Not my fault for the blanks but according to what I've been told, if we just can't understand the dictator, we have to send it to QA. MOST of the work I send to QA they can't get either, but its counted against us anyway. W ...

I know there are a lot of comments on here about M-modal being horrible and I have to definitely agreed, it is the only VR I have used so nothing to really compare it to but cannot do many more lines per hour than I transcribe (usually about 275 lph or so), anyone willing to share how much they do on M-modal and how long the account has been on VR? Just my curiosity since I don't seem to make any progress in increasing my lines per hour. Thanks in advance. ...

Hey everybody, I just needed to vent a little bit. I started my first day on my first job, and it went absolutely horrible. I was using the Emdat InScribe platform, which seems easy enough, but they have sooo many templates that the doctor should be using and isn't. My first few reports were okay, but then everything went downhill. I'm supposed to use the templates, but half the time, I had to erase 3/4 of them because it wasn't what he was saying. The wrong templates would load, ...

I have read these boards for the past 3 days, ever since I received word my pay would be cut...again...and that upper management was changing...again. I read through the MedQuist board last night, and then worked this morning. What a horrible day at work I had, the sounds of everybody grumbling in my ears, making me wonder if I should look elsewhere for work. My production was at an all-time low, by my own fault. Then I saw the company board this evening, and read throug ...

Starting rates range from 5- 5.5 cpl for transcription and 2–2.5 cpl for VR editing. This has become unreal. ...

I would just like to say that Nuance is ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE! If you are thinking about working for this company, DON'T! Second, I was wondering if anyone knows who I can call about my pay check. I was lead to believe that everyone got paid on 12/27/2013. That would have been my first and ONLY pay check with them as I quit a week after I started, but I have yet to recieve that pay check. I need to find out when they plan on paying me for the absolutely absurd training that they have you do a ...

it's not just foreigners. :p ...

Sounds like "horrible pincer repair" ? ...

Since I got laid off from Webmedx in September I've been on unemployment. I tried to work for Alltype and couldn't do it. The pay was alright but the support was awful, they just threw me into the job with no training, hardly any information on my accounts, no contact whatsoever from supervisors. I didn't even know who my supervisor was! Has anyone else had a bad experience with them? I worked 2 days and quit. No QA feedback or anything. I don't know if I can MT again. I' ...

HEART: Normal sinus rhythm. No S/L tympanus murmur was ordered. TIA ...

whatever you do, don't work here. they give you work, take it away, you sit here with no jobs all day and then they want you to work on your days off, or want you to work when it is not your shift. support is horrible, won't even give you a phone number to call. have to email and wait, losing time you could be working. just don't do it. ...

Here's a good one for the day. Just got hold of an Asian dictator, who proceeded to whisper and mumble through the whole dictation, with another American dictator standing right next to her dictating. Can you take a guess which doctor I understood more clearly? I'm sooooo sick of this screwed up mess!!!!! ...

Absolutely the bottom of the barrel today...terrible dictators and one after another after another short reports. Line count will surely take a hit today. ...

Nuance is horrible for giving references needed for new job but should have figured. Now they are holding me back from getting another job how nice, glad they can manage ti pay their bills but hold others back frim doing the same!!! ...

Let me preface this by saying that I know that ultimately this is what we're here for, to train the systems to understand every dictator. With that being said, has anyone else noticed that some of the dictators who have been purely straight transcription for years (while all of their colleagues are on speech wreck) are now on speech as well? These are doctors that without several paragraphs stored in your expander program, there is no way you could understand what they are say ...

Mickey Ds and I was SO happy. Well, I do have panic disorder, but maybe all these years what I thought was panic was something much more serious. I had all the symptoms of panic, but it would always start with the heart pounding. I am on something for anxiety and still my heart has been pounding. I am probably going to have to quit my job as bad as I hate to. I LOVED getting out and seeing people, making new friends (even met a guy!), but there is not one job there ...

out so thin that everyone only gets a couple of them a day lest we go completely insane, or at least pay a good hourly wage while tackling it, and still spread it around thin. It's beyond horrible. Of course the other solution would be to have a meeting with the worst ones, let them hear what we're hearing, and try to coach them on even halfway trying to speaking clearly if they don't want a million blanks, but that'll never happen. I also love the ones w ...

I quit with NO notice 3 months ago and sent a scathing resignation letter, the BEST thing I ever did!!! The letter I wrote was completely accurate, reason why I probably did not receive a response. I am so grateful I was able to find a job 5 minutes from my home paying me an hourly rate of $15.00. Does not sound like much but considering that my salary had steadily decreased with "Screwance", it's awesome! No stress, no crappy emails letting me know I made an error, ...

You must be fingerprinted and tell them what you've been doing since the day you were born. Whoever said it is just a cursory background check was lying to us. ...
