Subject: Thats great with your education hopefuly you can get out of this career soon

Because you are reading way too much into it. What the doctor said was maybe just maybe insensitive. Not your problem. When you dictate your reports, be mindful of what we go through transcribing them...I yell at all my personal doctors to learn how to dictate...I figure I'm in paybacks cause we dictated reports on the police dept and I rattled through them like there was no tomorrow. I feel so bad for the people that had to transcribe them now that I know what it feels like to try and decipher the garbage...As my boss says garbage in garbage out...Just type it...
