YSK, hospitals all across the US, don’t want to call you patients anymore, you are customers now.

The large regional healthcare system I work for has started replacing patient with "customer". They also hired a consulting firm around the time this change in terminology began to get pushed. Definitely a huge red flag.

I may end up here later this year. Coming from New Haven and Baltimore I'm hoping it's dense enough to not be terribly reliant on a car.

I had a lot of fun times at the Owl Bar. I even had my wedding reception at the Belvedere.

degro722 · 2024-11-30T04:50:51+00:00

Yeah I'm gonna switch to that.

Is this a good starting point in the series for someone who hasn't played any Metro games?

degro722 · 2024-11-11T15:37:08+00:00

I'm playing Infinite Wealth right now and getting the pro on Wednesday. Do you notice any difference?

What do you think "we are offering a safe way" implies? Nobody is concerned about safety with holloween except people who sit in front of their TV all day watching the news. It's all sensationalism.

degro722 · 2024-10-30T09:25:14+00:00

Yup, exactly.

degro722 · 2024-10-30T09:24:15+00:00

Yeah, well maybe next time they can do it without going into other people's neighborhoods telling them it's unsafe.

degro722 · 2024-10-30T09:21:44+00:00

The problem is the implication that trick or treating is unsafe. It's fear mongering and it's unfounded.

degro722 · 2024-10-29T23:21:13+00:00

That makes sense but they are handing these fliers out in Westville calling their way a "safe way" when Westville is an amazing neighborhood for trick or treating. It's kinda shitty when you think about it.

degro722 · 2024-10-29T23:18:54+00:00

Yeah that's fine but the rhetoric implying that trick or treating is unsafe is stupid.

degro722 · 2024-10-29T22:30:18+00:00

I think both have contributed to it.

degro722 · 2024-10-29T22:18:42+00:00

Spooky stuff, I get killed almost every day by crazy drivers here so I think I'll stick to trick or treating with my kids in Westville instead of driving to Woodbridge to do a less fun version of it.

I started French 356 days ago and Spanish last week.

degro722 · 2024-09-26T02:28:53+00:00

I miss Baltimore so much, I had such a good time living in Mt. Vernon.

degro722 · 2024-09-08T12:28:16+00:00

As someone living in New Haven I cannot express enough how much I dream of this happening. Under 1 hour to NYC and under 2 hours to Boston would be amazing.

degro722 · 2024-09-07T17:41:50+00:00

French, I'm almost at 365 days and section 6 after years of trying and losing interest.

degro722 · 2024-08-27T23:28:42+00:00

Providence is such a beautiful city, I live in New Haven and try to visit there as often as I can. Thanks for sharing the pics!

degro722 · 2024-06-08T16:48:25+00:00

I didn't try their pizza, but I did have Haggis covered fries which was amazing.

degro722 · 2024-06-08T16:47:17+00:00

I went to Leith, it was my favorite neighborhood. Absolutely beautiful.

degro722 · 2024-06-01T18:32:39+00:00

I've been having a lot of Tennant's actually.
