Today I had a dictation by a woman; I think she was the first one I've heard so far. Going by her, I don't like women dictators! Of course I'm kidding, but she had an accent that was so thick I couldn't even tell what it was! I "did" the report and I have absolutely no idea what it is about! Something GI, I think. So, looks like I finished up those easy ones from the last 2 weeks and now I've gotten hit with some real ones. I thought the same thing when I heard my first dictations. I guess the point is that I'm learning the terminology and some day it will all click. It won't matter that they are talking too loud or too low, or that they are eating, or talking to someone else in between sentences. I like to think of myself as a bear gathering food for hibernation. Someday I will be able to sit back and just let my fingers get to work and I won't have to think that much about it anymore. Beside, what fun is there in just getting something, most of the fun is in the pursuit!
