re: #62 Hecuba’s daughter

About 14 years ago, I was in a suburban Chicago hospital area late at night waiting for open heart surgery the next day when a colleague in one of our California offices emailed me with a problem with our software — so I called him and helped him resolve it!

I’m in Kaiser receiving my Humira infusion, phone rings from work with a claimant demanding to speak to me about the status of their payment which I worked on the day before. Caller will not hang up and demands to talk to me and they will go to their Congressman if I don’t talk to them.

Needle in my arm and I still have an hour to go with the infusion so I have to call the person back, tell them I am in the hospital caller says I am a liar and then unleashes all of Carlin’s 7 words you can’t say on TV. Demands I issue their full back payment. So I used the magic of the iPhone, put the video on and show the asshole that there is a needle in my arm and a IV bag of Humira. Caller says it’s a fake says they will call Congressman.

Sure enough who gets a call on their cellphone? Yes, and it’s from Asshole Gym Neighbors Jordan’s office screaming at me.

Just another day at work…
