  • WHO SAYS DEAD PEOPLE CAN'T HAVE FUN?

    I was looking about this urn website (I have no idea why) and I found these little guys.

    After wondering who might fit into such a tiny urn, I realized that you could buy up a bunch of those and poke holes in them with a drill press.  Then when you die, you could have your ashes placed in them then shipped to your loved ones as "salt and pepper shaker sets" for Christmas.

    Imagine that hilarity that will ensue when Aunt Aleesha realizes that she peppered her Christmas ham with your ashes!

  • Post aint just a cerial you know

    There has been an issue at the office about how to properly account for deposits taken for work to be done on a patient.

    The issue is that some people put together an estimate, then, when taking deposit money, they post the work to the account and apply the partial payment.  This causes problems with census figures and also makes it difficult to change procedures around should we make an adjustment to treatment during the course of doing work.  Not to mention the problems that this causes with the General Ledger.

    So to set us all straight, somebody posted a solution to the problem.  It is three steps in the computer, and the only mistake that one can make is if the input the wrong amount for the cash taken in.  Very simple.

    BUT, a member of management didn't like that idea and came up with "a better way" to record deposits.  Their process is seven steps, five of which can create complicated accounting errors, not only for the patient with which the deposits are being accepted, but for other patients too.

    sigh.

  • I Told You So.

    I have written in times past that Hillary isn't actually out of the race for president.  Rather, she has sucked the life force out of Obama and McCain and is running as them. 

    One way or another, she will end up in the white house.

    To lend credit to my theory, several news sites are running a story about how Obama is donating money to Hillary's campaign to "help pay off it's debts."

    Hell, the CNN URL says it all, obama.hillary?
