    Got me thinking again about how many people in medicine assume you’re lying all the time, is this projection? Are doctors constantly lying so they assume everyone else is? Why is it so hard to just believe people, jfc…

    I’m so goddamn sick of having to fight a system that’s meant to support me…

      I’m not a doctor, I fix computer issues. But the people having the issues do lie all the fucking time, because they want to shift blame, get faster service, or simply hide the mistakes they made.
      I could imagine it’s similarly frustrating for doctors.

        Reminds me of ER doctors saying that somehow men always seem to fall onto all sorts of things when they sit down naked and those things get accidentally lodged up their asses.

          Yeah, it would be so much better if everybody was just upfront about it during anamnesis:

          How, do you think, did this contraption become lodged in your rectum?
          I put it up my ass.
          Why did you put it up there?
          It was an experiment.
          What was the purpose of this experiment?
          To find out what I can put up my ass.
