SR is disappointing

you said, "Where did this silly pay system start? Which large company first introduced speech and the half-rate pay scale? Apparently, they set the standard."
I think it is transcriptionists that are setting the standard. Clearly, w/o trained transcriptionists the SR system would fail. It requires a brain, specialized medical traning to edit. Why are we, as transcriptionists, accepting this rate? That to me is the real problem.
The other thing that is concerning is that the SR technology is being adapted because it increases the profit margin of the company who is really the middle man between the clinics/hospitals and transcriptionists...I don't think the savings are beig passed down to the hospitals and clinics, in fact they probably don't know their notes are being produced by SR.

Disappointing service at Martel Electronics
How disappointing to have received such poor service from Martel -- a company we all rely upon for their great products!
The new headset I ordered arrived damaged/defective with an improperly coated wire making the headset useless. When I called I was informed that not only would I be charged a restocking fee, I would have to pay to have the defective product returned. Only after inspection would a new one be sent -- and that would be another wait of 10 to 14 days.
Repeated requests to speak with a supervisor got me nowhere. I ultimately disputed the charge on my credit card and wrote to the Better Business Bureau.
How unfortunate that the only supplier of the Lanier headphones is so unresponsive to their customers!
