Anyone have experience with honor phones on Verizon?

Idk I’m just spitballing. It just seems like an expensive way to misbehave. Chalking it up to stupidity/huberis on his part just seems too easy.

He’s probably trying to tank twitter to align with some political request. The destabilization of the communication platform will disrupt flow of information, potentially, for the next US election cycle and with current world conflicts/tensions.

No joke, I was like “where is the ca… Oh I get it”

Nice to see white2tea out in the wild. Their monthly subscription has been great

Yeah for sure. The clinic staff can make a huge difference and it’s not always the physicians administrative responsibility to ensure that the clinic runs on time. They can influence that, but do you know how challenging it can be to replace physician assistants and/or nurses? They’re in very high demand.

Agree with a previous comment that some docs have a god complex and don’t care about other people’s time.

Overall it would be great if the world aligned with the time slots I have scheduled for activities and appointments, but it’s not always as easy as it appears in semi-complex environments.

Think about it. If the clinic staff are slow to room the patient, the physician likely tries to account for that. Additionally, your doc may have been rounding on folks (checking in on other patients) in the morning - e.g., say they did a surgery the day before, it’s often best practice to drop in to make sure people are recovering well.

All of this adds complexity to an MDs schedule. Not to say that timeliness doesn’t matter or that your time isn’t important, but it’s not always a matter of someone being late - it could be the result of patients not being roomed on time for the last 2 years, so your doc shows up at 8:15 because the clinic staff don’t normally have the first patient roomed by 8 am.
