I will not compromise my pride for anything that involves cleaning up after other people like a loser. No way.

If you don't have a problem with it, that's your life to lead.

How da_ _ humiliating
They should be sending them only to the MT that transcribed the report for corrections. And again, as I have always said, if the doctors were'nt so lousy at dictating, this problem would most likely go away. They are, after all, the first "assumed" responsible person. Give us all a break... but I am happy to say that this doesn't happen with the company I work for.

Humiliating? How can you say such a thing?

I don't think there is ANY job in this world that is "humiliating". Some people have families to support, and even if they didn't, an honest dollar is an honest dollar. I don't understand how anyone can say such an awful thing.
