I actually thought this year was going to be the year of the optometrist.
I don't see that as an option...

Year of the optometrist: free glasses for everyone! :glasses:
Year of the optimist: the glasses are half full.
Year of the pessimist: 2020

I replaced the ear cups on my Plantronics 8200 UC headset and it's like having a whole new pair.

@Grey Ooh nice! I imagine if they are worn out then it will really affect sound quality.

Playing with new Microsoft 365 updates, and by playing I mean troubleshooting silly user issues. Got one user trying to use the new dictation feature adn I do not think they understand it will not be a perfect copy.

Sort of? Mostly they're just firmer against my head so they're blocking more noise. The ear cup replacement was just the foam/leatherette part, so no electronics.

I've used that and the biggest barrier is a good mic with no ambient noise.

@Grey Users always skimp on the mics around here.

We used to deploy mics similar to https://shop.nuance.com/store/nuanceus/en_US/Content/pbPage.speech-mike for the radiologists to use with Dragon. If your users are on a laptop mic or anything less than a boom mic (I switch from my 8200 to my Plantronics Focus UC for this reason), then the sound quality is too low.
Be sure to run through the speech learning process.

@Grey Excellent process!

Yeah, all the stats in the world only do so much good if it only gives half of the picture.

On their blog they said there was issue giving incorrect results for very fast connections so they disabled it temporarily.

Started realizing (aside from what everyone has told me about my job) how drained I am after working, and how much I don't really enjoy this.

Start training yourself for development if your still interested in that. Actually you should always be doing that as it gives you more options if you become tired of present role and just makes you more valuable. Rarely is there a downside to learning too much.
