6 Things Court Reporters Are Grateful For

It is the season to be grateful and remind ourselves of the many things that we are lucky to have in our lives! Our list of gratitude may look a little different than the average person (who else would be grateful for a steno machine?!) but this just means we really love our jobs!

 

  1. The Steno Machine

Of course the steno machine tops our list! It’s our trusty sidekick, and we would be a bit lost without it. It’s not lost on us that the steno machine is a relatively new machine in the grand timeline of innovation. We are grateful for technology and some of the ease it brings to our lives!

 

  1. Great Clients

We are very lucky to work with great clients! A favorite aspect of the job is meeting and interacting with new people on a near weekly basis. Susan Frye Court Reporting has wonderful clients that are always warm and welcoming when we take depositions. 

 

  1. Flexible Work Hours

This is a great perk of the job! Many of our court reporters are raising children and have the flexibility to spend time with their family without sacrificing their career. It’s truly a blessing to work in a field that honors the work-life balance.

 

  1. Job Security

The court reporting industry is not disappearing anytime soon! Time and time again, court reporters prove to be more valuable than a machine recording a deposition or a court proceeding. We recognize how lucky we are to be in an industry with job security.

 

  1. Fast Fingers

We wouldn’t be anything without our fast fingers! Don’t be fooled, we earned these digits! Lots and lots of practice went into making our hands court reporter worthy. It’s a skill we are grateful we spent time perfecting.

 

  1. Wonderful Coworkers

Susan Frye Court Reporting is more than a group of freelance court reporters. We are a little family! When you enjoy your colleagues and the culture of your workplace, your job is less of a chore and more of a passion.

I have practiced law in central Iowa for over 30 years. During that time, I've had the pleasure to work with Susan and her reporters literally hundreds of times. Every one of them is thoroughly professional, reliable, and committed to quality customer service at the highest level. Susan herself leads by example, and SFCR is always our first choice!
