Month: January 2023

I am fed up with being underpaid and overworked at my work from home healthcare position. Overall my experience is vast in the healthcare and insurance field but no 4 year degree. I can check claims, have knowledge of action codes, billing etc. thank you happy new years

On a normal work day, all employees clock out for an hour for their lunch breaks. But sometimes, my bosses will order or make lunch for us. This usually happens when it’s someone’s birthday or a holiday. It’s nice of them to provide lunch, but the problem is that they make us clock out for the duration of the lunch, which almost always goes over the normal hour. On Friday we had our Christmas lunch and it ended up being an hour and 40 minutes. Most of the other employees don’t seem to mind but it bothers me. That’s 40 minutes of pay that I’m missing out on. I want to say something but I don’t want to come off as a jerk.

Well I was more or less ranting about some things Im just fed up with. I went on and on for about 5 minutes and ended with “what fucking assholes”. I turned around and boss is standing there speechless. So I just said “well, now I don’t have to repeat myself” and continued working.

Had food poisoning one night and tried desperately to get the shift covered bc if we call in we ger fired. No one would cover so i went to work sick, puked, and boss blamed my meds. I said no, i think i ate something bad, but he said don't come back until I het a doctor's note saying my meds are properly adjusted – which would cost me $30 for a full diagnostic report. So instead, i enjoyed my weekend off, went to an interview, and got a new job.

With continued health problems and not getting any help I definitely need to make a move. Since I don't trust that I'll be able to get disability in a corrupt rigged system I need to do something. I can't keep doing what I do or I might not survive. I've seen several doctors that are clueless about my illness which is getting worse. Plus I have problems with just about every other part of my body I need to do something and fast. I know I've posted on here and other groups about wanting to do something but I really need to make it happen. It's either that or doing nothing. I get it's hard working for yourself with the hours and money involved but my health is much more important to me than being a robot. I have aches and pains and my aches have their own pains. I…
