Insert Swearish Rant Here

Plus you can't even reach out to them and say anything about it because the calls are recorded and they have to protect their jobs. Grrrr. Asshole bosses!

@hodge I completely agree. I got Mick Jagger and Jennifer Aniston on the same day a couple of weeks ago. i forget the other 2 names I spoke with. What is worse is the whole speech they have to give when answering the call or anytime you say anything. The same thing could be said in a quarter of the amount of time but they add tons of excessive words. This makes it even more difficult to understand them sometimes due to the accent.

Okay, confession time. One time I did ask this guy if that was his real name (when of course I knew his real name was not Ken). He ignored my question and just went on with his spiel. I'm ashamed of doing that, and I tried to be super nice and polite to him after that. It just flew out of my mouth. I was in some kind of funky mood. Grrr, asshole Hodge.

Luckily, I don't have a problem with the accent. I was in a relationship for a few years with a Pakistani guy. Urdu, the language of Pakistan, is basically the same as Hindi. It's just written in different script. So I'm used to interpreting the accent. And I like the accent. It's quite melodious. It takes some getting used to, though.

No, not asshole Hodge, nothing wrong with asking that at all. You don't have a mean bone in your body so it would be impossible for you to be an asshole.

Sadly, I often have to ask them to repeat what they said multiple times.

I think maybe I was hoping the guy would open up to me, but of course he couldn't, as all these calls are monitored. Thank you for your reassurance. I still wish I hadn't blurted that out, though. It really put him on the spot. Eh, lesson learned.

New to this so not even quite sure if I'm doing this right but I need to f*cking rant because what is this bullshit PTSD and how dare it take over my life. All consuming, personality stealing, friend deleting, sleep craving, child resenting, insomnia inducing, door checking, pill popping - greedy mother ducker! I'm well and truly over it and just want to sleep FOREVER. I do wonder if I am in a dream and this is not really my life, this is not me. Give me the old Kate back FFS - never asked for this bullcrap. Surely this isn't happening?

Venting the bullshit is all we're about, and you're doin' it right :sneaky: Welcome.

 

[JustKate]

Thank you. Now if you could stop the ride, I'd like to get off!

My insurance and my primary care doctor scheduled and paid for me to be flown to another state to get a test done.... I was supposed to fly out on a red eye Thursday night and back Friday night. It was a prelim test for more extensive out of state care.

The clinic in another state just called and berated me saying my doctor set up the wrong care.

Then they said I should have known it.

I actually told everyone I thought it was the wrong care three weeks ago, in writing, and they all said do it anyhow. They didn't let it go --- I was so just tired I said, "fine, maybe you all will figure it out when I get there and let this go and move on."

Now they tell me less than 24 hours before I'm supposed to leave, oh it's the wrong care and I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN?! I'm sorry I didn't know I had a freaking medical degree, and yet gee guys, I TOLD YOU THAT THIS WAS THE WORNG CARE already... and what the heck, how is this my fault? This was THEIR PLAN. Not mine.

I didn't tell them this. Doctors are a trigger and angry doctors are a big trigger. I didn't trust myself to say anything helpful or useful, so I said "oh my gosh my phone battery is about to die (true) I will have to call you back when it has full power. Or you can call me. Thanksforunderstandingbye." (click)

I happily hung up. Ok, so it was all true (I had 3% battery life) but maybe a little passive aggressive. Sigh.

I'm quite happy the whole stupid mess is canceled.

I'm not freaking happy that the insurance company promises what will be a freaking nightmare to get future care covered and that I DONT TRUST THESE PEOPLE AT ALL BECAUSE THEY DONT ACT TRUSTWORTHY.

Heath care should involve SOME care for your patient and not freaking berating them for matters that they should not be held responsible for!!!

So much stupid nonsense! After months of a run around. And this is supposed to be one of the top clinics in the world. *I* was supposed to know they were scheduling the wrong care?! really?! how?! no one told me and when I told them they ignored me. ARGH.
