Like what in the actual f**k? This was advertised on my YouTube feed with a catchy commercial that makes them look amazing enough even I want to buy a set. (/s) I’ve seen some ridiculous things- but now a 40.00 set of silicone dentures? Anyone else run across anything crazier than this?
Having seen someone just post about a concert attended- are there any good ones coming up in WV or surrounding states in the next few months? Any genre really. Anyone else going to Zombie/Manson on the 29th in Burgettstown, PA?
I can still see my portfolio value, and occasionally my crypto loads after a few minutes, but my stock portfolio is nowhere to be found and I need to make some trades. Wtf if going on? It’s been like this since opening bell but pre-market it was normal. Pro is doing the same thing essentially. There I can at least see my portfolio symbols but can’t do anything! Picture posted of what I see on the app. Website is the same.
Had a 78 yo patient come in at 10:55 for 11am cleaning. 6mo prior hygienist didn’t save the appointment and the spot got filled but he did have his reminder card in his hand waving it around. Front desk let him know he wasn’t on the schedule and what may have happened. Guy threw a temper tantrum and said he didn’t “have time for this shit” because he had another appointment at 11:30. Front desk let him know we could work him in the next day at 3 if that would work and apologized for the inconvenience. He said fine whatever and left in a huff.
Next day he walks in to say this, “That was unacceptable yesterday and I expect to be compensated for my time since you wasted it. Will you be giving me cash, check, or voucher?”. Front desk tells him sir I don’t think we can do that, but do you have insurance? She knows sometimes I’ll do 15% discounts instead of 10 for cash pay established patients. He says he has Humana but doesn’t see how that’s relevant- news to us he has it. Humana takes close to 3mo in our state to reimburse and pays horrible out of network so the patient pays up front and insurance sends the check to them. Front desk tells him this. He literally turns red and yells “I’m not paying you a damn thing!”. Storms out the door. Asshole always gives us a hard time, refuses X-rays as long as he can, and blew a gasket when we checked his bp at his last appointment because “it’s none of our damn business”. I told front desk to type up a dismissal letter because if he ever calls back I don’t want him rescheduled for any reason. Did us a favor really.
Is it just me or are patients in general more entitled than ever before and who the fuck does this with any other health professional? Also is it just me or does it seem like the absolute worst about this, even though they’ll tell you its “young kids nowadays”, are usually men in the 68-80 range that would also be quick to call anyone else a spoiled brat?
