What’s happening to all of the doctors?

It’s more than just the doctors. It’s the whole system. It’s over bloated and broken. And it doesn’t help that the population as a whole isn’t in great health, and expect their doctor to give them a miracle pill to fix everything.

Mornin all.

Apparently siding crews have very large feet and a total disrespect for the Lady's landscaping.
As she cried and wailed upon discovering the scope of the damage I apparently made matters worse by speaking my mind on the matter.
So I'm officially a bad person now. And I shared that with the crew the minute they arrived this morning. Along with a tour of their idiocy.
I'm sure the quality of the work is not on an upward trajectory now.

Been there done that.

Set the rules of not what to do-bad guy.
Point out issues-bad guy

What part didn't you understand-A Hole!

Don't say anything-"WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY ANYTHING!"

It's a man's job to shoulder the flack that gets handed down from both sides.

Homeowner vs contractors
The short list is a long wait list.

My Chiropractor says this all the time.

Folks abusing their body for 50 yrs.
Then they want an instant repair.

We need a stupid 💊 for this.

The love/hate relationship.
She swats him if he goes for the 2nd sniff.
Too long of a sniff.
They'll be almost 11 yrs together in the same house.
Yet we see this, 2 ft away stuff.🤣

Now they're knocking on both front and back doors asking questions.
I refrain from only answering "don't step on the F-ing flowers".

Good morning everybody and happy Friday

Well was happy at first to be one of the 100 where I ordered my XP HF2 coil to have made the cut and get one delivered out. However UPS got the coil close to home then delayed it with no explanation now for days. Tried customer support but got foreign call center garbage that I can't stand that really didn't help. Thinking the morons of UPS lost it. I'm feeling really pissed off as it was one thing I was looking forward to in my lately frustrating and crap fest my life has been lately.

Hardly any doctors in my town this year. They are going with Nurse Practitioner’s instead but they don’t stick around long enough.

Hang in there.

An article the other day a gal explained how she runs a business pretty much automated.
Ordering and such it's almost running itself.

Shipping (!) is a whole nother matter.
Stuff gets ping ponged around in manners only those involved might explain. Not that it makes sense.

In the lantern hobby for example folks chew their nails watching something go out of it's way and to multiple sites and going away rather than toward as more machines and hands get a chance to break glass.
some of the routes traced are head scratchers.

UPS is one of the better in my area.
USPS is losing ground fast.
Not only here but beyond.
Like one of our packages dropped at the entrance to an area of homes.
Meaning road intersection leaving main road in Mississippi.
No not an office or bus shelter or human staffed area. Not gated ect..

This is what I'm dealing with. If they lost it or broke it just state it instead of playing dumb. I'm already angry with things I'm dealing with in life so stuff like this really triggers me at the moment.

I hope it goes better for ya.

Don't yell at someone like I did...
l.o.l..


Relaying stuff to different hubs is more efficient money wise sometimes.
As far as miles and time and directions...Not so much.

And the hung up somewhere I don't have an answer for. Though it sure happens often enough that I hear about it.
My own packages I don't toe tap much over.
Now a new coil ; I'd be pressed against the window waiting.

It's why I'm very angry. I'd be waiting for this pre order for awhile and managed to land one of rhe 100 units they received only to end up with this mess. Hoping it just is mixed up in transit but my faith in UPS is very minimal.

My uncle on my mother's side is 100% Irish. He recently drowned in a large beer vat in the brewery where he worked. Three people jumped in trying to save him but he fought them off bravely. On another note, where has Chili been?

Chili was annoyed on a thread.
Probably taking a breather.

Goooooooood more-like-closer-to-noon afternoon!!! Fog came in hot weather is on a break!

My luck is what I figured someone at UPS corporate gave me a call after I pestered them a lot. Turns out they lost my package and are trying to find it. Yup figures.
