When I was a medical transcriptionist, sometimes the dictators would eat food or chew gum while dictating. It made the other transcriptionists furious when they would have to transcribe those records, even if they were able to understand the dictator. But it had the opposite effect on me. I would slide down in my chair and get totally relaxed. It was casual, like we were having lunch together.
