Well, I got a phone call shortly afterwards as I wasn't present at the meeting, saying that a meeting has been scheduled for Monday morning at 9am with the two people who are acting as HR. So, that means I won't get to see my employment solicitor friend until after it which is a bit annoying but can't be helped. I'm not nervous, just apprehensive. Thanks for asking

Sock it to 'em! And, umm, 'acting' as HR? What's that all about?

We don't have HR so the people in the meeting are the Head of Accounts and one of the partners. The place is a shambles!

Well good luck! You know you're right and you're prepared so I think it'll go over fine And if not, you've got that meeting with your friend to smooth out any kinks. Disgusting that this is a law firm.

I called a doctor's office to see if I had a bill to pay because we had a strange reimbursment from our flex spending account. I got some lady on the phone who said, "yes I'm showing a $65 balance on your account. You know, things in life aren't free!"
UM wtf? I know things aren't free you idiot dumb bitch. I called to f*cking pay the bill.
Stupid bitch. I know I'm PMSing right now but that stupid comment was so unnecessary!

oh Jenaya, I so emphasize. We have this bill at the hospital that never goes away. We got another bill (last service at the hospital was in jan. 2010). Says we owe $ .??, its so... stupid and we payed everything off in may last year. So my hubby called and they actually hung up on him? We didn't get any bills for months and then it will show up, then we don't get a bill for another couple of months and suddenly it shows up again. Its the phantom bill!

Ew I went through something similiar like that with the IRS. They would say I was done paying and then like 6 months later another bill would pop up. And of course they would charge me interest for that mysterious 6 months that passed! No matter how many times I called and said, "IS THIS IT???" they still managed to find more and more money I owed.
I'm so glad that drama is over with. Let this be a lesson to all, never ever go to some tax preparer that doesn't let you see your forms! I was 19, young and stupid. They frauded all my documents and ripped me off, then they fled the country when they got rich off people. It took me 5 years to recover from what they did to my taxes.

I started chatting with a girl from high school on facebook and she asked me what I was going to school for and I told her I am going to be a doctor. She basically ripped into me saying that doctors are all corrupt and greedy and I'll just get paid off to deny people procedures and that I should not be a doctor in this country blah blah blah. Ok that may be true for a lot of doctors BUT NOT ME! She obviously does NOT know me. I know how it feels to have a bad doctor! I'm trying really hard not to let her get to me but it really sucks to have someone take your dream and just trash it with rude comments.

lol thanks. I am not letting her ruin my day. Of all people to criticize someone's profession, she's a former stripper! Now she's a bartender. You don't see me picking on her for her chosen professions. She's dumb. She doesn't know me. I just ended up telling her to enjoy her health and hopefully she'll never need to depend on us horrible people to save her life.

Which makes me wonder, why the hell am I friends with these people on facebook? I have way too many people on my friend's list that obviously don't care about me. I think maybe I need to go on a deleting spree. It's stupid how many useless people I have on my friends list. These old high school people need to be rid of.
FRICK I'm losing my effing mind! I appreciate my breaks from school but I start to really lose it after a while! I NEED REAL FRIENDS!

As a former exotic dancer and current licensed bartender (although working in another field) let me state that not only do I think Jenaya will make an EXCELLENT doctor, but with your life experience J I think you will go above and beyond and be a COMPASSIONATE doctor. My 2 cents! pretty, woman of many former professions
