I can do about 350 o 400 lph without no noise, much, much less with music or TV as a distraction. I need quiet, and just the dictators voice.

Cannot stand any noise in the background. TV on mute.

Kids and dogs in the background
I have noticed more and more docs have been dictating at home with the kids screaming and their little dogs barking in the background. I wonder if it is because wives are complaining they are never home? And I say wives because it always seems to be the men. I have one Indian doc who dictates from home but he always has this soft soothing music playing in the background. It's actually quite nice!
Legit but I would think you have to get a background in legal
because as a scopist you have to go through a court reporters work, basically editing it, don’t know about the pay but you have to be able to work with legal terms. There is a computer program used but if something does not go through on that, then I think you have to revert to using the old way and that would be to read the tapes (like the grocery store tape they used to type on) so I would think school would be in order for this job but it is legit.
I knew of a pit pull rescue that does background...sm
Checks on potential adopters, an will only adopt to women - no men. My hat is off to pit bull rescuers. Must be very tough...
Good idea, but they do not take anyone with a felony background. sm
With the felony charges from the credit card and the meth addiction, I doubt she'd qualify. Believe it or not, not everyone can get into the military. LOL
What color is your background of your word processor? sm
My eyes are spinning here. I have played with changing my back ground colors, but can't seem to figure out which ones are best for my eyes. Yes, I think it is time for me to go get an eye checkup, but was just curious what colors others have found that suited them well. 
I agree! I have my sponge bob green desktop background
today. Also love that green beer! PS: Spongebob is dressed in green on my desktop, so that counts for me. LOL.
Have to have some noise
I haven't tried music, but I have to have the TV in the background otherwise I get sleep with the late hours I work. The silence drives me crazy.
maybe it's a noise in your van. nm

Too bad fences cannot keep out noise.
I consistently have to ask somebody three houses down to turn down the music they play in their garage... they think because it is a closed-in area that nobody can hear it, but it echoes off the garage door. Most of the time I can only hear the thump thump noise and nothing else, and that is the most annoying part. I've found that for the most part it's renters instead of owners that do this kind of thing, that and let the yards go without watering it or mowing it once a month, things like that.
It's not the noise I'd be concerned about
Is she wearing a helmet that fits? There are daily accidents with children on ATVs. I'm sure she's probably not going fast, but an accident can happen even at 5 mph. If she should happen to flip the ATV, which can happen on an incline at any speed, your daughter could be killed. I don't mean to sound so grim, but it's something to be aware of.
We have an ATV. My 3 boys do ride with their dad and do wear helmets, but it's something I wish I'd never allowed to start. Every time they get on, I feel like I have to hold my breath until they're off.
No music, no nothing, I cannot transcribe with any noise at all.

No noise at all. Can't get into 'the zone' with other

Noise-Abatement earphones?
Does anyone use the noise abatement earphones. I saw them in the store when I bought my last pair of cheapos, and I'm really needing something that keeps out noise, since my husband has started his own business and we are sharing the only office space in our house. Do these really work? The ones I saw were in the range of $35-45 at Walmart. Thanks for any feedback you can give!
Cruise questions regarding elevator noise
I just received documentation for our upcoming cruise and was delighted to find out we have been upgraded to a suite. My only concern is they have placed us near the elevator. Is this going to noisy? Has anyone experienced this before? TIA
I almost have to have some kind of 'white noise' going to be able to be productive. (sm)
In the summer I use fans and in the winter I use a sound machine from Radio Shack or a white noise CD - I am way too easily distracted! :(
Does your town or city have a noise ordinance?
I am sorry, but I hate when people reside in one home, yet they feel they can just run the neighborhood. My parents had neighbors that cursed all of the time.
We just had (live in a townhome) construction workers building a new store in our town "squatting" in the townhome attached to us. My husband was furious. He called the landlord that owns the home. Now, we have at least better neighbors!!!
we called their landlord last summer about the noise
trash and the fact that they had gotten a dog, which they werent suposed to have. next thing you know the landlord becomes their friend and maked deals with them allowing them to keep their dog,.yes, a few of my other neighbors and I have decided that we are going to start calling the police on them. its the only way..Summer is just now getting here and its going to be getting crazy around here. I cant even try to sell my house with their trash....we are moving back to the country...needless to say
