It's got to end soon, or we're well screwed.
My insurance payment + my jobs contribution (can't say whether or not they lie on the form about their share) is over a thousand per month. And I still have co-pays and shit that isn't covered. I've had a couple of X-rays and and a sling this year. I'm probably out another $2k on top of my insurance. It would be much cheaper for me to pay out of pocket and save the difference for a rainy day.
Fuck the entire insurance industry.
Narrator: "They did not."
Firing squad apparently
I had many teeth ruined by a crooked dentist. I didn't need any dental work for fifteen years after I changed dentists.
I don't know why there aren't government stings for dentists and mechanics. We have them against restaurants and bars all the time.
My wife used to get all grumpy with high school kids (and sometimes even adults) trick or treating. I told her, I'm glad to see anyone that still has that spirit and energy. And if they don't have costumes... They probably can't afford them. Worst case, they're doing something better than the trouble they could be up to.
... But fuck those people that take the whole bowl at houses with no one home.
I hate the bloatware attached to Android phones, so I went with a pixel 8. Pretty good phone, but the camera was defective. They sent me a refurbished replacement. It died from water damage... from a wet hand. On a phone rated for 30 minutes below 5 feet of water, that was disappointing. The second replacement drops signals all the time. Spotify glitches 5+ times per song. Google won't give me another replacement.
Never trust anything refurbished.
Not sure if this is a map from Counter Strike or Uncharted...
I bought cough drops at a CVS once. They were like 4x the price of the grocery store. It's no wonder their insurance sucks. Also, yes, verticals like that should not exist.
The biggest kick in the balls is that insurance still doesn't cover shit. There's still co-pays, tons of things that aren't covered, out of network, maximum use of services, and anything large will almost certainly be denied by default. The co-pays alone are often as much as the service should cost.
Health insurance is a parasite. Profiting (massively) by being a gatekeeper to good health is pure evil.
Health insurance is nearly a trillion dollar industry. There is no way to have a middle man that big and somehow save money.
Their goals are 100% opposed to ours. By denying care and charging more, they profit.
We can't even shop around for a better provider because it's tied to our jobs. The entire system is broken.
Abolish health insurance.
Well, I just spent an hour with customer service. First trying to gain access to my own bill. Then trying to understand why I'm being charged for Pandora Premium "on us", which clearly is not "on us", and I never signed up for (T Mobile assured me I did).
Made me wonder how many others went from a free Tidal account to a not free Pandora account.
Anyone else?
The photo isn't very interesting, but it showcases the problem. I have a 7 Pro and my pictures all look great ... Except when I use the 5x lens. All of my pictures come out with these vertical stripes.
Warranty support says I should try a factory reset. That's a huge pain and I doubt if it will fix anything.
Thoughts? Anyone have a similar issue?
It was probably still worth what you bought it for. Those things hold their value forever, despite bring notorious for being unreliable.
I had a 93' with absolutely no features others than 4WD. No cruise, AC, nothing. It was worth about the same as my 05' accord with pretty much every feature.
The clutch died three times in 30k miles on my Wrangler. The local shop, a Jeep dealer, and a Wrangler specialty shop couldn't figure out why. I finally found the answer in a forum. Basically the brake lines shared fluid with the clutch and there was a small leak. The clutch always failed first so no one ever found the leak.
Also, the Wrangler is the only vehicle I've ever spun out on the highway, and it happened more than once.
