Its the 'spice of life' right?

I do dislike the way our healthcare system operates. I have to waste an hour of my day tomorrow to go to my family doc to get a referral. It will take 15 seconds. Why can’t this be given over the phone?

The doc could probably use that time to see someone who actually needs to see her.

Thinking you have to poop but instead you just let a really big fart go into the toilet.

Oh well, better safe than soiled, right?

Ranting in a rant thread about another rant channel. Inception?


Anyway, in a discord server that originally started as a rant thread for an MMO. Been in there for a few years, so of course, rants often hit non-game subjects. But oh my god, this one person, thankfully doesn't rant often, but when they do, it's about random fan fiction. Easy to ignore when the rant isn't something you care about, but today, they've posted the equivalent of a novella about it for the last 12 hours. I mean, everyone has their annoyances and what not, but the amount of time wasted on this, like, ignore and move on. Been so tempted to post the Peter Griffin "Oh my god, who the hell cares?" pic, but I like this server and this guy thankfully only posts like this every few months.

My surgeon is pretty youngish. He just phones me. Reception asks if I want an official appointment, fata no, so he will just phone, five minutes and done. It’s beautiful, and it’s not minor subject matter. So I think they have the ability to be like that and choose not too.

My doctor is the same. If I ever need a referral or prescription it’s over the phone.

It’s not a healthcare system issue.

Your doctor is Ben Kingsley?

I brought a cold home from Dallas when I was there at the beginning of the month.

I have been feeling good for roughly 10 days, but I have this couch that will not #### off.

Wakes me in the night

Maybe post nasal drip? Neti-pot the #### out of that thang.

hmmmmm, I never thought about that.


I got nothing to lose

For stuff that isn't important, I just email the nurse dept in my dr's office. They'll email me forms, respond, or call if needed. Don't even need to bug the doctor. Why most people still have to suffer through 1980's style interactions is beyond me. Seems like a waste for everyone.

[Weitz]

You guys think if not going in was an option I wouldn’t have taken it?

[Looch City]

I just witnessed some dumb #### intentionally go the wrong way on a neighborhood roundabout just so he could do a quicker u-turn. While there's incoming cars and everything.

What the flying ####. No wonder there's so many ####ing accidents and people getting hit.

Dumb ####s. Everywhere.

Just remember when you see people driving like that, they also probably vote. "This person is helping to decide the course of our society".

They cant bill the same for a phone consult as they can for an in-person meeting.

I cannot wait for the curves couple to morph once again to try and make a random point he doesn't understand. Even making 200k US seems pretty high for a remote non-profit exec.

Pretty sure they can. They changed it during COVID and then made the change permanent.

According to assdoor avg salary for non-profit exec is $85/yr.

Yeah, 200k is CEO of large non-profit level. Although she is already an illegal alien so maybe she will turn into a criminal next and is actually a money launderer.
