aspiration pneumonia (hold the pneumonia)

think i jinxed it. dumb blue. my line count's been lowish the last couple days. i might not get the bump. but oh well! i mean, i'll keep trying for it, keep striving for excellence. i dig this gig and want to be the best they've ever seen.

there are transcriptionists who just do radiology reports. x-rays, ct scans, mris. i think that would be boring as heck. someone finally came up with the great idea of training the radiology transcriptionists to the regular hospital transcription, because we're always behind and they often have little to do.

and i realized something. something i already knew, but i realized it anew. i found i was excited about the prospect of these people trying this new job, while i more or less know the job - maybe they would ask me questions and i could help them!

i realized i like the idea of training people. teaching. just on this small scale, though. i don't want to stand in front of a classroom - heck no. but the idea of teaching a person or a small group of people something seems kind of thrilling.

i don't know how many of the radiology transcriptionists will ask me questions, because i'm relatively new and thus not an authority. even though i know a heck of a lot! but i find myself hoping one or two of them will turn to me from time to time.

so is this something to aspire to? maybe one day i'll be a trainer for this transcription department. of course that means i have to be totally kick-ass at this job, though. so i'm working on that.
