Ladies lighten up. You really are taking this all too seriously. Our profession is now one that is taking its last swirl around the toilet bowl before being flushed into the sewer of voice recognition and slave labor. If you can afford it, hang on to your daisy dukes, plug your nose, and ride the wave.

    VR is NOT going to be all accounts or all services. It is A wave of the future not THE wave of the
    We have a few accounts on VR and some that tried it and did not like it and some that will never go to it for various reasons.

    VR works in some settings but not all. I personally think it will take about 25% of the work in MT but the actual numbers from the technology companies say less than 10%.

    That is very encouraging.

    Here is another thought. If we need twice the number of MTs in the US to do the current volume and numbers increase consistently, and VR makes everyone twice as productive, we will be better equipped to handle transcription in the U.S.

    The offshore companies are not as cheap as they used to be. Their rates are climbing slowly but surely. There are also a lot of reports on CNN, CNBC, etc that say that they are running out of workers in India, Pakistan, Phillipines, etc.

    I think we will see a swing back to US MTs and back to being a good field to get into. It will just take a little more time. We did not get to this point in a day.

    question on VR editing, wave of the future ?
    it seems that alot of  companies are either there or heading in that direction, before I jump ship looking for greener grass  and consistent work - anybody truly happy working on their VR program?  if I have to get into it, at least I want to get into the right one - can you really double your production?  thanks for your response and help
    My wave pedal would not work..have 2 under my desk.
    Had to buy the compatable pedal for Emdat then ended up hating Emdat....
