Teeth, eyes, and ears....so dumb. Whole healthcare system, so dumb. Private equity getting into healthcare, not just dumb but evil. Ugh.
I am grumpy because I managed to apply for a job Monday afternoon, which I am perfect for--which is to say, I could easily see not being hired for it, but I should at least get an interview. And yet it's been almost TWO DAYS and they have not requested an interview. What is their PROBLEM? OBVIOUSLY they are dumb. (....or I'm impatient, or I've been screened out by their system accidentally and they don't even KNOW I'm the right candidate)
We’re at the first softball practice of the season, indoors because it’s way too cold here for outdoor practice.
Ears, too. So anyone needing a hearing aid is fucked. And since a majority of their patients are likely seniors, they're fucked, too.
Same with eyes! Millions of people need eyewear but senior citizens, who are highly likely to need readers or beyond, are not covered by Medicare for glasses.
I hate the health care system with the heat of a million suns. That have been set on fire. Inside a kiln.
Different rant (since everybody's in the mood): Would it actually kill people to take a glance over their email or Teams/Webex message before they click send?? I shouldn't have to spend 5 times as much time as you spent composing the message determining what you *meant* to say out of the clues of what you actually *did* say!
Given the audience, I know I'm not the only person on earth who proofreads. But seriously, AM I THE LAST PERSON ON EARTH WHO PROOFREADS???
I hate healthcare in this country
So much. I just got a bill today from Quest because DH's PCP sent out his test for flu and related stuff and my co-pay was $458. !!! We could have told them he had the flu.

I am big fan of "your request is unclear. Please clarify."
The shame and mortification that occur when not proofreading generally keep me compliant, but my eldest son is the first to let me know when I don't. I always do with work communication! (here I may post and run, leading to horror later)
I’ve had to reassure several engineers that I don’t read their Slack messages with an editor’s eye. I’m just happy they remember to tell me things!
This looks like a very Buffista thing.

We recently had a team member relocate from India to the US and spent almost all of one team meeting explaining US healthcare to him. It was mostly apologizing.
