Happy pre-turkey day
Since I really should be running and not sitting here at my desk, I’ll leave you with two short conversations from work.
NewTech: This guy’s insurance won’t pay because they don’t like this doctor’s license number.
Me: (looking over her shoulder) That’s because he doesn’t have one on file with us.
NewTech: So now what?
Me: Look it up in the license database.
NewTech: I don’t know how.
Me: (I’ve shown her this at least twice) Log into the portal, click on the link that says “internet links”, and it’s right there.
NewTech: (10 minutes later) This isn’t working. Nothing is coming up. Am I doing something wrong?
Me: Probably.
It turned out that the needed license number was right there on the damned script.
Me: I got an email while I was on lunch from a site that I’ve done some shopping on. One of their featured products is hot chocolate. Hot chocolate with caffeine.
BossRPh: (in reference to an earlier conversation about a corporate memo on how the company has decided not to carry any caffeinated alcoholic beverages) Oooh… I wonder what would happen if you mixed it with some peppermint liquor or Baileys?
Me: You’d get Four Loko Cocoa.
Also, the NewTech phrases of the week include such gems as “you wasn’t”, “he weren’t”, and “most fullest”.
