You know what i hate?

After multiple calls... let's be cheerful... After multiple calls expressing why I was unhappy with the situation, I get a call saying they made a mistake, and the appointment was still on.
3 new documents appear in my new online records patient portal/toilet. All three are cancellations for the appointment.
Another telephone call on my part confirms the appointment is still on.
Littlte more than 12 hours...
Just about makes a ginger need a meeting! Gimme the Gospel, sweet Jesús! Lay your hands on my raging quiver and cast it back at Stan! Don't make me do anything newsworthy.

Sorry to hear that man. God bless our for profit Healthcare

You're trapped in the medical merry go round. Been there, but not quite that bad. I had to do a lot of end runs whenever they presented themselves and it still took to 14 months to get all the approvals on a back surgery that had me in constant excruciating pain.

Medical appointment made with a 7 week wait.
6 weeks from making appointment, confirmation phone call.
6 weeks +1 day from making appointment, confirmation email.
6 weeks +2 days from making appointment, phone call offering to reschedule another 17 days after original 7 week appointment wait time because the medical person won't be there.
This is to get a referral to a specialist that will take no less than 2 weeks to get an appointment to see.
That specialist talks specialist talk to another specialist who is waiting to see what they have to say before working on a treatment plan, which will take another couple weeks.
In the meantime I have a thing that is going untreated, and my body is literally attacking itself.
Said all that without a single swear word or threat. It's like watching the tide roll out and waiting for the tsunami.

hang out or hang around they say. 1% is a wild culture.

That would be Tesla. It's pretty much a cell phone operating car with emergency backups should your cell phone run out of power.
Nerts to that! Keys don't need charging or shatter when dropped and I can have pictures of nekkid ladies put on them if times get desperate. Nerts!

India may have the right idea banning smart phones, whats next you have to have one to unlock and start your car? Or open your front door, make toast, set the oven~
I have had many calls this season by someone I can barely understand wanting me to send them money. I dont want to talk about money "why did you hesitate to talk", one whispered to someone near her "I dont know what to do" I whispered back "hang up" she did.

Fuck cell phones. Fuck every company that requires a cell phone to do business with. Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you.
Die in front of me, companies who have not gotten with the whole 'US based customer support' craze. Does that make me a racist? No, that makes me a person who wants to understand the person I am trying to get help from! So, fuck you too!
So much anger... So much hate... So much ginger...

I think this dude was the last of the bikers I have known, never rode with them, but since I drove a pick up and carried tools (and weed) I was always welcome at their flop houses.

Sorry for your loss. Cancer truly does suck ass. Done battle with it twice now. I am fortunate to be here to complain about it.

[Bowhunterwoody]

Sorry man. It does suck.

[Rwise]

I hate finding out I have lost yet another old friend to cancer. He was not in good health and also had MS, he had just found out he had stage 4 cancer just a few weeks ago. Cancer sucks ass!

Had to comment....One thing is for sure - There are going to be some really bad divorces, well thats if they make it that far..Think about it some one had to lie for years why they could not have children or how would that effect a partner when they find out the truth, they will need a Lot of Counseling to get over it.

I personally think hydrogen is better than lithium, only time will tell which way we go.

[Bluey]

Hydrogen has huge potential, but still in its infancy re storage etc..
