AN EMAIL I RECEIVED

Thank you for your interest in employment with Prudential! On September 30, 2009, Prudential upgraded to a new electronic job application system.

If you would like to be considered for a position at Prudential, please create a new profile. Any job applications, resumes, and/or cover letters that you submitted to Prudential prior to September 30th, were not converted to the new system. Going forward, you can check the status of your application by logging in at any time.

Thank you.

(1) Don’t you just love the “caring”. It just screams “we control the monologue”.

(2) Not me. I haven’t applied there in a long time. Bet everyone got the same date.

(3) Create a new profile? Ya gotta be kidding. It takes a half hour to answer all the screens. No, not that desperate for rejection.

(4) “Thank you”. My data wasn’t important enough for you to migrate. Some thanks.

Why would anyone want to deal with them?

Just wait until the economy turns around and the good candidates are scarce again. (Assuming the gooferment gets out of the way!) People have long memories.

POLITICAL: Fixing healthcare? Not gonna happen with the gooferment involved

Your Doctor Serves The State, Not You
by Michael Scott, MD

*** begin quote ***

While I agree that physicians commonly order tests and perform procedures that are medically unnecessary, this fact is due to two main reasons the author completely fails to mention: first, the tort system, which terrorizes doctors in their practices on a daily basis, and second, that patients have minimal if any financial stake in their care. As a consequence, they demand everything in excess, and are often angry when we suggest a desired test or treatment is not indicated, no matter how much time we spend trying to educate them. When people don’t pay for something with their own money, they hardly care about costs. They just milk others for all they’re worth, because after all, that’s what they perceive everybody else is doing to them, too.

*** end quote ***

Clearly, the current insurance system is broken. And, isn’t going to get fixed anytime soon.

We clearly have to get the lawyers out of suing the doctors for everything that goes wrong. They are docs ; not gods.

We clearly have to return to the days of yesteryear, when insurance was insurance. Car insurance doesn’t insure oil changes. And, patients have to pay a percentage of the true cost; not a “co-pay”!

We have to make health care insurance like auto or life; disconnected from employment.

Finally, we have to get the gooferment OUT of health, health care, and health care insurance completely. They can’t do anything right. It’s in their nature. (I still haven’t heard of then doing ANYTHING effectively. Never mind efficiently!)

Argh!
