I tell you money does strange things to people. I don't care how good a patient is. The can owe you some money and they will become the biggest bum ever. I'm always surprised. The elderly are the best though. If they owe you a dime they want to know so they can pay it off. It's great.
I bring this up cause it collections day in the office. The day each month when I track down my deadbeats and shake them down for money. I don't use a collection agency, but I might need to in the future. In the past I was scared to piss patients off, but you know if you owe me money you're the bum. I don't know if I really want you as a patient if you're a bum. At the moment I only have one patient over a $100 which is my line for taking you to court. Done it before and I know I'll do it again. Never collect, but it is the principal of the thing. Also with that outstanding it will come back to haunt you in the future.

Hi Mike,
there you are! I was wondering why I'm not getting alerts from your journal. I happened to be cleaning my mail folders, and one of your older entries were saved..so I clicked on it, got to your AOL journal where the new link took me here.
So, how do you like your new neighborhood?
I'm on and off writing and reading journals, but I do know when I'm missing alerts! LOL..
ok..I'll come by sometime again, hopefully soon.
Take care yourself,
Gem :-)
p.s.
I do have an account here, but I hardly come here so I forget my access...
