Oh the race issue, it's def a hot button topic and a subject of huge consequences, not one that I like to chat about (we saw what happened to the politics thread)
I was in the ER the other evening, and a black gentleman was coming to the docs area and complaining that he hadn't been see in a long time and he was getting upset (it was 45 minutes on a very very busy night) he finally came into the area behind the glass and got in the face of the medical director who happened to be working that night, he then proceeded to make this about race saying that if he was white he would have been taken care of (again, there were 17 people in the waiting room, so him being in a room alone puts him ahead of the pack) eventually, he says "this is bs, I'm a sick dude and need help and this is unacceptable and ends up walking out and leaving AMA) This lovely gentleman on his walk out then sees a friend in a hallway cart and sits there next to this individual for about 2.5 hours joking and chatting with her. So much for being sooooo sick.
I've heard that if you complain to a catholic health facility then they give you free Regal movie passes to help make up for it and try to keep their satisfaction scores up.
So yes, I hate people, I hate the power people perceive they have, and I simply hate ignorance. And the race card absolutely needs to go
