Insurance is absolutely, unambiguously, the worst. I had a stress echocardiogram denied by insurance yesterday because they don't think I need it. A test to try to identify a problem, what's my alternative? Wait to see if I drop dead? I guess in that sense I don't need it but c'mon. And I'm on one of the "good" plans.
It seems like "deny everything and we'll save money on the people that can't/won't fight the denial" is actually common practice now.
I hope their actuaries get to experience the bullshit and have time to regret their contributions to human suffering.
Bah, undocumented is my modus operandi. Uncredited is unforgivable. Ill absolutely throw together a ticket and add it to the sprint after I've fixed an interesting problem that kept me from working on the boring ticket that's been in my backlog for three sprints. _
Depends entirely on the self checkout system in use. My local Kroger has a system that's absolutely awful to use. Seconds between placing an item in the baking area and the register acknowledging it, and if you scan another item before it's weighed and acknowledged it'll yell at you. A few times of that and an associate has to come by and unlock it.
Most of the ones I've used at Walmart will handle me scanning and bagging as fast as I want for the most part.
As annoying as it is, I'd rather have visually inconsistent elements rather than broken applications. There's something to be said for backwards compatibility.
My latest bottle is gorilla and it works well enough. But exactly like you said, I don't think I could pick it out from every other bottle I've used in the last 20 years.
Oh no, even laserdisc?
