Bad service in the ER?
[info]traumawolfe posts a list of Rules of the ER in [info]customers_suck. Complaints start at the first comment, where it is pointed out that s/he ripped off the list from another site. People also point out, at various points and in various ways, that some of the demands/complaints are irrational. Many personal anecdotes are invoked on both sides and I learn more about hemorrhoids than I wanted to.

Others defend the OP and there is discussion of exactly how bitchy a patient is allowed to be.

Eventually, the OP deletes her journal, but the post remains.

[info]stella4809 makes an off-topic post over here and people complain there as well.

I rather think anyone over the age of twenty has comparable "The ER decided someone was faking and they ended up worse" but, yeah, spooge, whatever.

The 'it doesn't matter that you just took a nebuliser twenty minutes ago and are losing consciousness from lack of oxygen, we'll just give you another and send you home' attitude of the doctors in my hospital eventually resulted in me spending weeks comatose in an oxygen tent and the lovely news my parents received explaining 'she'll most likely be a vegetable if she ever wakes up' (and actually using the tactful word 'vegetable' in reference to a two year old child).
