The French sounding name in other words
it was not like I was a Jones or Smith, you know, simple sounding every day names and if you have worked as long as I have in this business, I have seen dictators get a chart mixed up with another, not that it happens often. That was the reason for my saying it - he could not have mistaken my dictation for a Ms. Smith or Ms. Jones....
This account is sounding like both old MT sm
and the office staff are extremely disorganized. Other than making a list of the patients you transcribed, I would not get involved in any pre-transcription listmaking. That's the office's job.
What should be happening is that they give you 1 jump drive for every 1 or 2 days' dictation ALONG WITH PATIENT LISTS FOR THOSE TWO DAYS. They have patient schedules in the office or a sign-in sheet, I am sure. They can at least provide you with those.
As far as duplicates, state very firmly that due to the state of the records prior to you doing their transcription, they are probably going to have some duplicates and that you expect to be paid for everything you type. This is simply a cost of doing business the way they have been doing it in the past (or associating themselves with) and they are going to have to eat that cost. It's not your problem.
If they give you any trouble with any of this, I would drop the account immediately and let them find a sucker to do free typing for them.
These posts are sounding
sorta paranoid?? Your name is called when someone is ready to see you and what is this about calling a hospital and they say if you are there or not? What pray tell does this matter? Oh, my goodness.
talk about sounding like a dimwit!
they dont arrest someone to ask them questions. They arrested the father. yes, they let him go, but they arrested him because they thought he knew something and was NOT cooperating. They don't hold people for no reason, especially for 60 days. I guess you don't watch the NEWS. They DO have evidence against this boy, they just are not releasing WHAT IT IS. Where have you been??????
You are right, Dano. I apologize for sounding
so critical.
Yes, QA can have problems getting their act together. Most of time, however, I see MTs who absolutely feel they should never be corrected nor forced to follow the client preferences because they have a zillion years of experience.
No one knows it all. It doesn't matter if you have 1 year of experience or 25 years of experience; if the client wants it a certain way, they want it that way, period.
I should have tempered the tone of my post and I am going to ask Admin if they will make a change to it.
MT-NY, I apologize for sounding so critical.
This is a touchy subject, as you can well see.
You're correct - I don't know it all! I have over 20 years of experience but when a client wants it a certain way, they just do.
If it is just one QA person who is doing this, I would take that up with a supervisor. I think I might have responded differently had I known it was just one QA person doing this and not all of the QA department.
In any event, I apologize.
never noticed him sounding dumb, but
the deodorant thing I did not know about. ICK!!!!! That knocked him down a few notches in my mind. LOL.
Still can't stand George Clooney though. Especially what comes out of his mouth. He probably stinks too. LOL.
You're sounding bitter about your cubicle.
Be happy for her, be envious of her (I know I am), but bitter is unbecoming a professional.
at the risk of sounding dumb, what is an ITOP? nm

Geez, you're really getting close to the line of sounding bitter.
May I suggest some counseling? The OP asked an innocent question and you took it like a personal attack against you.
I've been a single parent and mind you I know how hard it is to be in that situation, but if someone asks a simple question like "what does your spouse do" most people who don't have a SO at the moment would have moved on to another thread and never given it a second thought.
Seriously, time to do some self-searching.
I think French just might be
my least favorite accent. Despite my French teacher bragging about what excellent speakers the French are, never saying um, just having fast flowing speech, when dictating in English, the ones I've done have had some serious stammering, poor enunciation, extra words, and many unexplained word choice changes, and it's all I can do not to scream and grind my teeth the moment I hear that accent.
I'd love to tell my snotty French teacher that, too.
French!

French for me too.

You must be French or something because it is

French Ed. major
with English Ed minor and Music minor. No jobs around here in Northern Indiana, and extended family is here, so once started having kids, kind of just fell into this work. Love it, though, love using the Latin I had years ago.
Bob for French fries!!

very difficult... now if I ever hear a doctor with a New Zealand accent I think I will recognize it - very distinctive - have heard it only in a few movies.

French 1st Language dictators
My take is that you are both correct and mistaken. People with French as their mother tongue can be both challenging and reliable to transcribe in English. The challenging part is the omission of certain sounds that are normal to the English-attuned ear. The reliable part is that the differences one hears are usually SO predictable. I belive that with more info I can help you even with your specific problem.
I think Spanish and French are the worst, (sm)
and I even took French. But they have an annoying way of dropping out all recordable sound and just doing something with their lips that a recorder can't pick up at the end of some words that is very annoying.
I have enjoyed British, but every newbie should be warned about their "stop" and "full stop" for punctuation, LOL.
Autocorrect turned french!
Out of no where my autocorrect is french! Anyone know how to turn this off??

Spanish, French do celebrate Christmas in USA
Middle Eastern Arabic people do not celebrate Christmas nor the Jewish people (and Chanukah comes early 12/3 this year so they should be working. Russian Christmas is in January. The Hispanic community as well as the French communities here in the USA, as I know it, certainly do celebrate Christmas. Happy Holidays To All....

I thought the French, Germans, and Russians were hairy.
Would that make them hirsutian?

Hot French bread with real butter, rasberries
