I used to work as a relay operator and I couldn't help myself from taking on the same accent as the voice side if they had a heavy accent.

    I'm trying to figure out what a relay operator does.

    Edit: ok, I guess you probably mean a telephone operator.

    Relay is a service for the deaf and hard of hearing to make telephone calls to non-deaf people with their TTY through an operator that reads the text sent by one party to the other, and then types back what the voice party is saying to the TTY user.
