Yesterday was hard....making corrections as fast as I could right up to the deadline...only a few undone. Pay is correct, but accounting codes are not. Hours worked got paid as holiday, etc.

Today is much better. I made a good point about why I was putting in so many hours (I don’t think the boss believes me) making corrections...I showed her ALL the stickies, done and awaiting, and told her each one represented someone’s corrections.

Today I’ve been showing her WHY they are wrong...the new system doesn’t like anyone working on a holiday. So everyone that did needs to be fixed. “Here it is in black and white.”

Today is better. *HUGS*

MY DADDY IS A DANCER

One day a fourth-grade teacher asked the children what their fathers did for a living.

All the typical answers came up - fireman, mechanic, businessman, salesman... and so forth.

However, little Justin was being uncharacteristically quiet, so when the teacher prodded him about his father, he replied, “My father’s an exotic dancer in a gay cabaret and takes off all his clothes to music in front of other men and they put money in his underwear.

Sometimes, if the offer is really good, he will go home with some guy and stay with him all night for money.”

The teacher, obviously shaken by this statement, hurriedly set the other children to work on some exercises and took little Justin aside to ask him, “Is that really true about your father?”

“No,” the boy said, “He works for the Democratic National Committee and helped to get Obama elected, but it’s too embarrassing to say that in front of the other kids.”

Hiya NRA....actually I'm thinking I need a pea subsidy & a government funded study on the cause & effect of improperly removed band-aids as to how that relates to society on the whole. :) *hugs*

As each big chain’s contracts run out, Express Scripts will on 0 orders do the same thing. So Express Scripts will be the single provider via mail order of Tricare Meds.

And God help you where the drugs come from. And if you need an antibiotic today, you will be waiting a week for it from them.

We are already seeing shortages of certain drugs. I take a Diazide water pill, drug store can no longer obtain them, they switched me to Merzide...crap stuff, doesn’t work even when they nearly doubled the dose.

And Express Scripts is a B to deal with if you need a flagged name brand drug because the generic is causing you problems or doesn’t work as well for you. Hospitals and doctors are next, as Tricare and Medicare are admined out of the SAME office. And pay the provider pennies on the $1. Now they want to pay even less.

The worse part is that 0 is going after the CPO’s/SGTs with 16 or so years to do them out of their pensions. But they won’t go after the top heavy cocktail admirals/Generals who have secured their retirement already. Same goes for the other branches, and we are still fighting 3 wars. 1 of them very unnecessary.

Time to bring our Troops home, and let the ME go to Hades in a hand basket, as you can not change fanatics. No sense in getting any more of our Treasure killed with 0’s dumb A ROE’s.
