My dr is starting me on a new drug, so I'm researching side effects. I came across this gem:

false beliefs that cannot be changed by factsSince they have to mark down everything that happens as a potential side effect, just in case they're sued, I have to wonder how bat ass crazy that person was in the first place! Or whether they were just ( Read more... )

I'm going through my morning job search, and I came across this gem in one of the job descriptions:

2.7 Quickly discerns the customer need and promptly prepares a quote, order, return/credit with minimal errors within 48 hours. Four mistakes per month is allowable. [Bolding done by me.]
