Regardless of audio quality, the fact that she came as close as she did
to what it actually was yet couldn't get it shows that she has no idea what a salpingo-oophorectomy IS. Not to mention the other info she gave and the type of report that it is.

My very first day I typed something like 150 lines
for 8 whole hours. My supervisor looked at the line count and made the clerk do a re-count, lol, surely they made a mistake! Nope, it was me. By the end of four months I was off of hourly training pay and on incentive doing about 1600 lines per day. It will come if you work at it. When you first start, your head is in books most of the time too, so this is taking away from your typing. Just keep at it.

How many words=Typed Page.....
Does anyone know the standard number of typed words that equals one typed page? I know this varies, but anyone have an idea?

I've always lost the first lines that were typed when
they come back on and change what they had said. The report needs to make sense and if he is obviously going in another direction, it's just easier to start over. It doesn't seem fair, but that is they way I have always done it. Now, if you had typed a paragraph or so and he just hung up or got cut off, I would leave a QA marker and send it in and get the lines.
