Same here

I can type the whole report faster than I can do all the corrections and can do it right the first time!  That's what I don't understand-- how do they think this is "progress"?  I guess it makes money for them as they can sell all the machines and pay us less than half of the regular amount.

I'm just waiting for them to say "we HAVE to give all the work to the Indians because there are no U.S. MTs anymore".  It is coming.  They just don't (or won't) "get it" that people do not like doing ASR and have to do twice the work to make the same pay as they did when they were actually transcribing!
