ESL vs USA

I know that just the sound of an account containing more ESLs than English-speaking docs is enough to put dread in the best MT's minds, but lately I have discovered that I much prefer an accent to arrogance. I would much rather transcribe for an ESL doctor who at least tries to speak clearly than an English-speaking doctor who knowingly slurs, skips and flies through his dictation. I have English-speaking docs who get more blanks sent back to them than text and yet, will they even consider changing their method of doing dictation? No siree!! So any more, when I am told that there are quite a few ESLs on a certain account, I no long flinch. I know some ESls are a nightmare, but not too many of them have that I don't care how I sound attitude, and I have seem many of them turn around quickly when they receive dictation that is full of holes.
Just wondering if anyone else out there experiences this from time to time. Thanks!
