Bother…

The RSI is now sufficiently bad that Dragon is no longer an option. I've spent a lot of the last two days relearning how to use it. When I say "a lot", I mean 15 minutes at a time, and then taking a break. As it points out somewhere in the manual, you can also get RSI of the vocal cords. And it's a good thing that one of the commands I could remember is the one to turn the microphone off for a bit, because with just having got over a sore throat, I need to stop to clear my throat every sentence or two. It's also getting bloody annoying that the microphone doesn't fit properly and keeps drifting out of alignment. It doesn't help that I've acquired reading glasses since I was last using this program regularly.

I hope that your workplace will Get A Clue and give you the tools you need to minimise RSI.

I'm currently flirting with the edge, and I really really don't want to contemplate how bad yours must be.

I think that I'd have used a rather stronger word than "bother", though it too would have begun with "b" and had six letters. I hope that Dragon soon realises who's boss.

You may recall a sig file occasionally used on demon.service:

"Bother," said Pooh as he hid Piglet's body with Eeyore's.

Poor Piglet. He was always my favourite character.

Bummer! Sorry to hear this.
