What's wrong with you?

[feisty]

Me? I'm not feeling too hot. I think I'm nailing down a flu. And it's a friday night... and my pals aren't on the computer.................





what's wrong with you?

feel free to add your gripes and moans. It feels good to get them out every once in a while.

My advisor told my fellow classmates that I am not competent enough to be a medical assistant because I am in a wheelchair. She feels I have no right to be in the program, and the physical is set up in such a way to "weed out people like her because she can't stand for 4-8 hours or lift her body weight." She even went further to say--"if I went to a doctor's office and Tanya was my MA, I would demand another medical assistant. No one in a wheelchair has any right to be in this program."

Well, I think she just might get her wish. I can't find any sites to do my externship because I am a "safety hazzard due to the wheelchair."

On a side note, I have some kinda head/chest cold, sore throat, crappy flu thing too.

[feisty]

ok.

and I have to say.

1 word replies to paragraph emails are irritating as well.

GAH!!

[NorthQuad]

Well feisty that's a bummer.

Jadis, I have a rifle, we can go find that bitch, I'm not far from you.

[betheny]

I had some complaints but now I'm pissed off about Jadis's.

But I'll complain anyway. Had a bad kidney infection, the day the foot swelling went down I started sneezing. Cold.

House is a pit, tree not decorated, presents not wrapped. No groceries. Lazy family members. Don't want to go home to inaccessible KS for Christmas cuz been sick, too feeble for all the crip-walking involved. Oh, and stress gives me hot flashes.

Thanks for the opportunity to bitch.

Next?

[feisty]

Thanks for the opportunity to bitch.

feels good... don't it?

Jadis, that really stinks! I cannot believe that in this day and age, there is someone so darn bigoted as this woman. I would report that bag of manure to the proper officials, here it is the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination. And could you tell me why your w/c is dangerous? It a crash cart dangerous? Is a med cart dangerous? Just because its on wheels? Thats just as nuts. Thats just the bigoted medical profession talking. To be honest, except for an outstanding few, I find most average (your standard doctor's office) medical personal REALLY bigoted against people with disabilities (although there has been great strides).

There are people who are post polio, SCI, etc., that I have seen featured in the disability magazines that are doctors, so whoever is feeding you this crap should be given a size 10 combat boot in the butt. Also, the instructor is talking about you to your classmates? That is as unethical as it goes. I believe that is covered under HIPPA isn't it, or some confidentiality laws and ethics. I would have her buttocks in a sling in 2 seconds flat!

Sorry, I couldn't resist it POed me so!

[brocko]

Changed my mind. I got no problems.
Jadis, bad story. Hope you're there when she gets hers.

[CurlieQCarrie]

Where shall I start my list? Hmmm....

1. I have felt like crap all day, and I'm pretty sure tomorrow isn't going to be pretty either. *sigh* Flu.

2. PMS--'nuff said.

3. My room is a complete wreck & I know that it'll stay that way until I feel better. Probably longer.


I guess I didn't have as long a list as I thought. Thank goodness.

P.S. Jadis--I say take NorthQuad up on that offer. What a rude, condescendng bitch. Grrrrr.

I got blue balls real bad, my boys need out and fast. They are planning an escape through my bladder, but i'm trying to tell them, its a death trap, they don't listen. Also i'm feeling rather bloated. Why? I don't know, i just ate 4 bags of beef jerkey, in 3 days. That can't be good for my bowel program. Shit! I need to shit. Peace out Girl Scout.

[keps]

I've got toothache because I need a filling which dropped out months ago replaced.

I'm only going to be able to get it sorted on January 27th though. *sigh*

I'm desperate to eat some peanuts, but I daren't because I'll be in agony. Hoo.

Story Book Disease

I have broken many dreams, but like broken hearts they seem to mend with ease I've traversed the open sea with a grain of guts and a gallon of need but I'm tired and I'm easily fixed a hair trigger in this one's breed
I'm upset with upsetting things and always sad to see the good things leave.

So what's wrong you? so what's wrong with you? so what's wrong with you? she says oh, what's wrong with you is what's wrong with me

Long lost negotiations make in hell to break my nerves
toiled and fought my way to the top, I haven't done but have tried at least to deserve, shiny things on golden jeweled plates aren't just handed out for those in need oh I've learned and I'm learning still that staying idle is the worst disease.

So what's wrong you? so what's wrong with you? so what's wrong with you? she says oh, what's wrong with you is what's wrong with me

I blame myself for breaking promises I made to myself in so called "dire need" but I won't apologize for the cursed words I've laid upon those that I blamed it's no use to toil over this isn't life to be a simple thing? it's a flux, a want for worth that I need to dispel those need.

So what's wrong you? so what's wrong with you? so what's wrong with you? she says oh, what's wrong with you is what's wrong with me

[kkmay]

ok.

and I have to say.

1 word replies to paragraph emails are irritating as well.

GAH!!

If I was your friend, I would never reply with a single word. Hint hint

I'm in the middle of dayshifts - which are the worst and I hate them because I have to get up at 5am to get here for 6:45am. Going out in the morning when it's dark is enough to make you stop and freeze to death like a statue and the parking lot is all rudded from slush that froze ... then I get to go home in darkness and I'm too tired to do anything, but force my way to the front door of the building.

The condo doesn't clean snow very well and last night after coming home from work the visitor spots were all cleaned out and most of the reserved parking - all except my unit number parking spot and the handicrappable ones - I called and left a nasty message about how I had to pay extra for my accessible condo and my condo fees are the same as everyone elses. I actually asked if they had something against me ... out of character for me.

My back is killing me and I don't know if it's the endo or I have stones or something because I've been having troubles with my bladder but I can't see a urologist until February!!! And I'm late for my period but there's no chance in hell I'm pregnant.

I have three papercuts from yesterday at work. That should cover it for now.

Thanks! I feel better!

Jadis - that's bull pappy - someone will be more than happy to hire you - don't give up.

Jadis-
Dangit! SAME thing happened to me about 5 months post. I wanted to go to MRI school (use to do x-ray) but they said the same thing about the standing, but I had to deal with the same kind of bitch you did. It was over the phone and she was going on and on about how it would be impossible and that I was a liability. Even though they sit most of the time AND they have helpers. GRRRR.... I was in tears. Checked with the disability office and they said there was nothing they could do. If they were gonna pull this b.s. why did they accept you in the first place?!? I hope there is a way around this for you.
Why do people have to be so damn hateful? They act like people have no feelings and they have no consideration for what you go through on a daily basis. BTW- what was your reply to her?
