I use Windows XP and uninstalled some program on my computer yesterday.  A few minutes later when I later tried to log into the the transcription program that I use, it would not work.  After panicking for a minute or 2 I remembered the handy System Restore feature. I restored my computer to the previous day and everything works like a charm now! 

It is a life saver! 

If you are there, they can see you, so no violation calling you by name (what if there were 2 patients same first name?)  Only violation is if they DISCUSS your health information with someone else or with you in front of others, you are there, people can see you.  If you want complete privacy, ask to be taken in the back door, directly to a procedure room and leave through the back door.  Get real.

As for the person who overheard you registering, that is just rudeness on the part of the other patient, the cubicles are enough protection and the hospital did their part, the other person was just nosy and inconsiderate.

I have been to offices where the walls were so thin, I could hear both ends of the conversation completely, violation - NO, they didn't mean to make the walls thin or for me to have good ears.

Please tell me you are kidding! Unbelievable how naieve some people are, simply unbelievable!

I have a dear friend who is in his early 50s.  He has the standard headaches and takes his BC Powders.

Last year at Christmas he was going home for the holidays and I had gone by his office to wish him happy holidays, and he was literally laying on the table with the worst h/a ever he said.  His eye was even a little blood shot (like you get with a really bad h/a).

On the way home, he finally couldn't take it anymore and pulled into an ER about 20 minutes from where he lives.

Within minutes they had done a CT and had him on a helicopter to Univ of Ala at B'Ham. 

He had a brain tumor!  Never would have thought it - wouldn't have ever even considered to think that.  He was healthy as a horse. 

So, please go to the ER.  BTW he had surgery and he is doing really good.  But he wouldn't have if he hadn't stopped and pulled into that ER that day.

this kind of response really blows me away. 

Who in the world could afford to wait to get paid until the employer gets paid etc. I would never agree to work under those circumstances. I need AND deserve a regular paycheck. You certainly couldn't call your mortgage company or credit card companies and tell them that you'll pay them when you get paid. That just doesn't fly. I was hired once by a company and then read the small print. You work the 2 weeks, submit your invoice, and then they have up to 45 days to pay your invoice.FORGET THAT. I said no thanks. I feel bad for both of the posters. That's two months without pay. They have NO excuse. Bad business practices if you ask me.
