2024.05.16 09:59 Defiant_Buy_101 The diagnosis delemia: behind the multi million dollar industry of healthcare monitoring

Chapter 1: the event
It was the fall of my intern year as I bean my off service trauma rotation. This month was ubiquitously notorious for being the most labor intrusive and least productive rotaion of our emergency medicine program. Knowing this I entered with the intention of simply surviving the month.
Another intern and I let’s call them A for sake of ambiguity, we’re the first emergency medicine residents to roste on the trauma services that year. A shaky start would be an understatement. In the words of chance the raper “like my grama with the Parkinson’s playing operation.” Would better describe it. Medically we did well. We were very competent and completed our work daily, but communication and coordination was non existent. Our Cheifs had informed us that Tuesday was our day of and the Trauma cheif residents had minimum communication with us, or our Cheifs as it seams when A and I did not report on Tuesday they sternly made their dissatisfaction known.
I have struggled with insomnia sense the age of 10. Had 2 sleep studies by this point in my life and been prescribed nearly every sleeping aid on the market. The 80-94 hr work weeks of our trauma rotaion only worsened my insomnia. My lack of sleep likely contributed to a less than prime adaptive immune system and 2 days out of my trauma rotaion I contracted strep like symptoms with associated nausea, requiring me to call for a sick day the next day. No the first day that I felt too ill to work. I was not fully aware of the reporting process. I reported to my Chiefs, but I did not believe I could come to work tomorrow with amble time and notice, however I was somewhat delayed in letting their Cheifs know, because the surgical chiefs rotated every few days and I did not know who my was going to be the next day. The second day which I had to call out sick I was able to locate the cheif for the next day and reprot according to our university’s protocol, which requires that if a resident feels they are not fit for work they must not come in and the university must have staff coverage without any fear or implementation of punitive actions.
I had finally survived to the last week of my trauma rotaion and I could see the light at the end of the tunnel. What I could not see was the pile of stress, shitty diet, lack of mental well ness and sleep deprivation which I was pushing down to reach the light. By this time I had seen a psychiatrist regularly for sleep medication. I had mentioned to him that I had been experiencing more stressed lately and feel that I might be depressed. he reassured me that it was likely only due to my circumstances, given the difficulty of the trauma rotation and wish to reassess once the rotation was over. Looking back I had to fill the habit of drinking more than I usually do. My only on nights before I have days off became 1-2 beers every other night. All of this repressed unhealthy shit finally pushed bad on September 23rd. That night I was at work even later than usual, I stayed up later than usual and couldn’t seem to fall asleep. With the stress of only having minimal sleep and knowing I only had 2 more days of trauma left, I took an extra dose of my sleeping medication.
I opened my eyes to the fighting sight of sun beaming in my window and I instantly knew I was late. (Sense I hadn’t seen the sun in a month) . Due to my need for scrupulous sleep hygiene I have been sleeping with my phone of and away for me. I rushed to grab it and watched as the little Apple logo seamed to glow on the screen for an eternity. Then in conjunction with its fading I saw 3 missed calls from my director, a text from college A and 2 missed calls from the surgical director. Still, I was able to calm myself, knowing that resident A had been late to this rotation by a few hours 2 other days and nothing came of it. I called my director back and he asked me to report to his office where I was greeted by my director, my coordinator and another emergency medicine facility.
With the only explanation of: “we just want you to get better”, I was handed a letter, to my relief it did not entail my termination, but a declaration of administrative leave and a requirement to undergo an evaluation at a well known university in Florida.
Lake any other savvy millennial, I did my research. By research I mean numerous google searches and screeches thru the depts of redit. To my dismay I discovered that in order for a residency program to fire you, they must first initiate an administrative suspension. I would soon find out however, being terminated would have been a delightful outcome compared to what ensued.
I spend the next few weeks in the wallos of regret and depression. I indulged in higher qualities of alchohol then I ever have before. I all but ceased communing with peers, and abruptly stoped any physical activity I had once enjoyed. Frightened as I was I was ensured, it will be ok “we just want you to get better”
Chapter 2 The evaluation : guilty until proven innocent I did exactly as instructed and scheduled an evaluation, I supposed that this was either a mental evaluation to assess if I’m fit for work with plans of termination or it actually was an evaluation to better treat my insomnia. To this day I regret my ignorance, and wish I had researched the process more. The Hindi / sand-skrt idea of Hamsa 🪬 is that in order to do any good you must have full knowledge or else good intentions can result in harm. I truely believe my director had good intentions, however but him and I did not have full knowledge of the nature of this evaluation.
Looking back see how easily I could have avoided my troubles by asserting legal aid at this point or even by researching this evaluation process more in depth. If one searches impaired practitioner program which I now know this evaluator works for, the search entire will populate 5 or 6 layferms along side their home website and there is a valid reason for this.
If one every finds themself in this process I employ you to bring a DSM to your evaluation or at least be familiar with the most common use disorders in the DSM-5, because your evaluation will turn into a dance of questions where the evaluator attempts to trap you in a round about way to stating something that may qualify for one of the diagnosis. I have provided an image from the DSM-5 below outlining AUD, which the evaluator concluded that I had the most severe from:
Image
Example***** Here are 10 examples of how he fraudulently assessed me taken directly from his assessment note.
  1. Evaluator: Have you ever stoped drinking in the last year.
Me: yes I stoped every week day, I was only drinking on the weekends, until two weeks ago.
-Evaluator uses stoping and starting every week to qualify for 2 or more unsuccessful attempts to stop in the last year “There is a persistent desire or unsuccessful efforts to cut down or control alcohol use.”
  1. Evaluator Have you ever had withdrawal symptoms
Me no
Evaluator Well Have you ever had a hangover? You know that’s a from of acute withdrawal
Me: yes in college, I had a few but that was years ago and I’m pretty sure the pathophysiology is different.
Evaluator uses this to count for withdrawal symptoms even tho is was more than a year ago
  1. Evaluator: Have you even taken your sleeping medication on a day or night which you drank? Me: Yes, I took my prescriptions are prescribed but I never drank close to bed
Evaluator: qualified this as dangerous behavior with alcohol (where the DSM gives examples such as unprotected sex and drunk driving). The sleeping medication I was on is not a benzodiazepine therefore it is not deadly with alcohol. I personally have seen many patients in the ED who have taken their entire bottle of the medication and drank copious amounts, we just monitor them over night and rehydrate them
  1. Evaluator Has anyone told you you drink to much or been worried about you Me: No I drink much less than my friends
Evaluator what about your girlfriend? Me: well she actually doesn’t drink at all she doesn’t like it. She often buys me beer for The Weeknd’s tho. One time we went to a movie and she got a little irritated because I waited for beer then complained about them not having any craft beer. So she said, “you couldn’t have just said no” and drank something else. However, she apologized after and said it’s worth waiting if it’s my only day off.
Evaluator said this qualifies for continued drinking despite causing significant relation consequences, ie divorce.
  1. Evaluator : you have sleep issues I hear, and your chart says you’ve had depression in the past, don’t you know that alcohol can effect your sleep and mood Me: yes that’s why I never drink within 3 hours of sleep.
Evaluator but you knew this and still drank
Evaluator: qualifies for drinking despite unwanted physical or psychological effects (this should be recurring to effects the alcohol is causing, I have had insomnia sense the age of 10 long before I took my first sip)
7 evaluator you were late for work and told my you had a drink the day before
Me: Yes but I was late because I didn’t sleep and took double my sleeping meds, I will never do that again
Qualifies for 2 significant work or school issues in the past year ( a therapist and other psychologist ensured me that being late on or a few days doesn’t count they typically are getting fired or failing) ( moreover, this would assume I was late do to drinking it’s self and also assume if happened more than once)
  1. • Alcohol is often taken in larger amounts or over a longer period than was intended
He never once asked anything related to this question yet said I qualified in his final report 9. A great deal of time is spent in activities necessary to obtain alcohol, use alcohol, or recover from its effects. The evaluators logic here was sense I was late for work and I had 2 beers the day before I must be taking long to recover from it (this is assuming I missed due to alcohol)
  1. Tolerance drinking more to require the same effect: this he checked as true in his final note however it was never even discussed in our evaluation. I did mention to him that I’ve been drinking more than I had earlier in the year frequency wise, but they said nothing to do with quantity or needing more.
  2. Wanting to drink so bad you can not think of anything else: this is the only qualification of SAUD my evaluator said I did not have.
Moreover, without legal help I was not aware that I could obtain a second evaluation or even oppose going to get evaluated at all, but that wouldn’t have mattered seeing I still thought this was for my health and wellbeing as seen when I was asked why do you think you are here to today, to which I replayed “so that I can be evaluated to see what is needed to get back to work”.
To maks the ordeal more infuriating the evaluator continues to ingratiate himself and lie through the process telling you, “it will be fine as long as you are 100% honest”, “anything you say in here is between you and me” or “you slipped up once with your meds, I know your residnecy program they will probably just want a few more out patient tests”
Two weeks later I received a phone call right before I left for an out of state vacation to visit my nice for her birthday. During the call I was informed that I would be required to complete a partial hospitalization program (PHP) lasting “6-10 weeks” which would coast from 15-50 grand not including doctor visits or housing which is billed separately. I suppressed this inconvenience, enjoyed my vocation and reported when I returned, knowing that I must complete this soon so I may return to work with due to the fact that my payed time off would soon be diminished. At this time I had not yet heard of the organization PRN.
Chapter 3 Guilty till proven innocent: The diagnosis
Shell shocked I arrived to a in patient psychiatric unit and was rapidly cleared to progress to treatment without detoxification. During my 90 day of forced rehabilitation I met a few other individuals who were unjustly and fraudulently forced into treatment. I began to look up to one of these such members of the men’s community, who I will refer to as patient X for ambiguity sake.
Unlike me patient X did have alcohol use disorder. He spent many clinic days drinking to avoid alcoholic withdraws. The curious component of his story is that he admitted his depravity, saught help and through his own journey became sober. The bodies at be, namely his local physician, Health monitoring program, rejected his personal path to sobriety and forced him to undergo 90 days of in patient treatment before he could practice medicine again. When he checked in to rehab he had been sober for over a year.
Ask for Stories of people from online
As for me I spend many sleepless nights pondering how consuming a legal substance in a moderate amount could throw me into significant legal financial issues. My labs my toxicology, my story and my collateral from colleagues from colleagues all indicated light to moderate alcohol use but my evaluators word stood as the word of God.
More frightening was the director of this rehabs acknowledgment of this. The director who happens to also coincidentally be the evaluator, stated to me as well as to staff on multiple occasions: “ I suggest inpatient treatment for everyone who is reported”. “This is safer for me not to miss anyone who could harm patients, and I figure there must be a reason someone reported them.”
I am still elucidating the reason why I was determined guilty and proven innocent, however I can say from my 90 day stent that the majority of the patients at this rehab needed to be there. This program is saving lives of both providers and patients, however it is destroying the lives of those wrongfully accused.
Chapter 4 your lisense rehab or jail : Upon arivil I was sent to a detox hospital underwent a medical examination and was “one of the lucky ones” who required no detoxification and could report directly to PHP. Like everyone else, I spent 90 days in a PHP, being as 6-10 weeks is simply a lie they tell patients to decrease the change of resisting the treatment. When discussing the topic one therapist sated “if we told patients 90 days they would never come.” She then attempted to justify the treatment by outlining the story of a patient she had called who “didn’t make it to treatment” and killed themselves”. It is my belief that it is not the lack of PHP which impelled such professionals to take their life, but them realizing that they now will be obliged to undergo 90 days of PHP, 5 years of PRN monitoring with a loss of autonomy and hundreds of thousands of dollars taken from them that induced their hopelessness. For even if these professionals were truly mentally unstable in their addictions, in every case it was only following a phone call where they were informed they must undergo treatment that they took their life’s. By this time I still haven’t the slightest clue what PRN was.
Despite the security these programs provide for many my 6 main issues with them can be summarized in : 1. Kick backs: evaluators are directors of treatment clinics 2. The reported are guilty till proven innocent 3. The price, the overflow of money these places drag in from both patients and state universities is appalling, they charge separately for every visit and test 4. Although they make the claim that they are individualized, they are anything but. Every patient gets the same stay and treatment from the doctor drunk on the job and the one who was late to a shift 5. They force voluntary treatment. remember that friendly evaluator who promised he had your best interest at heart, so you opened up and told him everything about your substance use/ developmental / family history, well if you don’t stay for 90 days he will be “normally obliged” to tip the board of medical off to you.
  1. The programs have overstepped their intended jurisdiction. -these programs work well if they function how they were intended at their inception. Cite original purpose. Originally these programs were designed to protect physicians and civilians from impaired practitioners; being healthcare workers who were impaired at work. Over the years, these organizations have extended their authority to encompass individuals with substance use disorders When not at work and also those who are in training to become healthcare professionals. Take for example myself compared to a physician who is impaired at work. A doctor who arrived for duty under the influence would surely benifit from the extensive testing, therapy and accountability enforced via these programs. In accordance the 20,000$ per year cost is appropriate when only making up roughly 7% of their yearly salary vs nearly half of a residents. In my case with my loss of income from employment, coast of treatment and monitoring, this year I will be required to pay 20,000$ to work. Yes, I will be losing money to work. Even if did indeed have a substance use disorder this level of monitoring wouldn’t not be considered appropriate.
Dispite all of the miscomings of this System My time spend in PHP was indeed helpful, as I believe it would be for anyone. Time for exercise, a reprieve from work and weekly counseling. A sample structure of my day to day schedule is provided below for insight:
Structure The general structure of these rehabitation centers is as follows: 1. One week of orientation phase, where you are not allowed in electronics or contact with the outside world world. Therefore, if you’re going, bring some things you would like to read or study. 2. In phase 2, you can use your phone however you cannot leave campus. You must stay in the dorm on campus. These shitty 1 room run down apartments with two other roommates will cost you about $1000 a week, they are required for at least four weeks and they are billed separately, no insurance will help you out here. 3. In phase 3 you can commute to campus if you beg your therapist and live very close. Whether you’re on campus or living off-campus, you are allowed to leave up to four hours per day. If you commute, you’ll be required to take a sober link decide you must Breath, alcohol test into every 6 hours. Like everything else in this program you must pay for this separately, a few hundred dollars a week. You advanced to other phases by completing assignments, however, assignments are limited by required built-in time, intrusive, scheduling, and reviewing. Therefore, if you do everything as rapidly as possible phase 1 will take one week phase 2 will take three weeks.
Every day schedule:
7:30: wake up, report to the front desk to inform them that you haven’t ran away yet and take and prescribed medications. They keep all your medications and require that you report to take them; for me this was antidepressants in an attempt to dispel the depression I contracted from being forced into treatment and whatever off label medication they were attempting to treat my ADHD with, since control medications were forbidden.
8 am: community group assessments This consisted of other patients presenting their assignments amongst the large group, on the weekends this was often an hour later and 12 study regularly took the place of assignment presentation.
10 am: process group. This was a two hour group therapy session with 6 to 12 other professionals in a therapist and training or occasionally a licensed mental health therapist.
1 pm: recreation This was generally about an hour of some sober themed craft or activity. Once a week this time slot was used for yoga.
2 pm: this was another time slot used for patients to present assignments as well as for individual therapy sessions. Each patient had one individual therapy session lasting 30 minutes per week.
3pm: This was time allotted to work on assignments or go to the gym on your sex specific scheduled gym day.
5pm: this time was used for guest speakers or another 12 step study group.
6 pm : this was generally an off-campus 12 step group
10 pm: report to the front desk and let them know you still haven’t ran away and take and Medication which are prescribed to take at night, then return to your cot bed in your room with 1-2 other roommates.
I found the community to be one of the most beneficial aspects of the PHP program. I was in a cohort of chill ass professionals of the same occupation who were always there to help each other.
Assignments The curriculum of the PHP consisted of assignment based on every step of the 12th step program. Generally, a patient would be required to complete an assignment on their own, review it with other patients, then faculty and finally present the assignment in front of the whole treatment group. You’re only given one assignment at a time and there are multiple steps to each which all requires scheduling this ensures that no matter how determined a patient is a full 90 days of treatment is required to complete all the assignments.
AA structure -the obsolete nature of AA has been verified in numbers studies, but I will refrain from divulging here and lend that endeavor to Dr. Lance Dodes very thorough discussion on the subject,in “the sober truth “
In all sincerity, if I truely did have a severe use disorder this experience could have been life saving. I only wish I could have used my 50 grand for someone who has spent their life time In addictive without reprieve. My first conversation when I was given my phone back was how I wish my father could be able to attend this PHP.
Chapter 5 reporting and PRN Self reporting What they ask you What you should tell them
There’s a third-party agency called professional resource network. Every state has their own. This agency works as a liaison between you and whatever credentialing service your occupation requires. Essentially they ensure your monitoring after treatment. Stake governments and licensing boards trust them, mainly because they monitor with the highest level of intrusiveness. This alleviates much work for state governments and licensing boards because once an individual is being monitored by a professional resource network, then they are deemed appropriate for duty and no further investigation/litigation needs to occur, as long as the monitored individual completely complies.
Because I was never impaired at work I was never reported to this agency. The general workflow of things someone would report you to professional resource network, then the resource network would contact you, and then you would be required to report for an evaluation at a treatment center, which would inevitably result in a suggestion I’ve treatment at that given treatment center. In my case I was sent to the treatment center without PRN being involved. Thus, two weeks into treatment. I was notified by my therapist that I needed to call PRN and self report. I attempted to resistance given that I did not have a problem and was not individually seeking help. I asked what happened if I didn’t self report. I was told that in order to stay in the treatment program I had to report to PRN. This meant either I report to PRN or I get kicked out of the treatment program and lose my job.
When you report to PRN they will ask you why you are in treatment. They will then list off every substance imaginable, asking you if you have ever tried the substance and when your last use was. Ultimately, they will obtain your discharge information from your treatment center, so it is in your best interest to report only what was found in your biochemical testing. If it wasn’t in your hair, I would argue that you don’t have a use disorder regarding that substance and it’s not relevant. I don’t believe it’s important for them to know that you smoked weed when you were 12.
Chapter 6 The contract:
Before being discharged from a treatment facility, a professional resource network will have you sign a contract. A little known fact which I was oblivious to is that contracts can be negotiated. Though this isn’t it possible, it is highly improbable that you can negotiate your contract since PRN has a power to delay your clearance to return to work.
Contractor almost never personalized, and I have not heard of a contract which is not a five-year agreement. You will sign releases of information so that PRN has access to all of your information which was gathered at the treatment facility. You must have a therapist, psychiatrist, primary care, doctor, and a addiction, medicine psychiatrist. You assign releases of information for all of them. You will be required To commit to: 1. three mutual aid meetings a week which you must log. I log smart recovery meetings. 2. Weekly therapy sessions with an approved mental health therapist from their list 3. Monthly doctors appointments with an addiction medicine psychiatrist 4. Yearly appointments with a primary care physician 5. Monthly appointments with a psychiatrist 6. Daily check-ins on a random drug testing app ( you will agree to weekly urine tests, a peth test 4 times a year, a hair test twice a year and a little caveat that says anything else they deem, clinically reasonable) 7. Quarterly update reports which you are required to obtain from a workplace monitor, therapist, addiction, medicine, psychiatrist, primary care physician and any other doctor you are seeing. 8. You must upload all of your prescriptions into a mobile application every single time you get them refilled and are not allowed to take them until they are approved. 9. Attendance of a PRN group via zoom. This is a local group you are assigned along with other monitored practitioners. There is a fee of roughly 130$ a month to attend this required group. For me all of these requirements coast around 20,000 a year. If you ever have a positive test even if it is the result of contamination from rubbing alcohol or unintentional ingestion of alcohol/ allergy medication your contract will rest to 5 years from the time of positive test. Once your five year contract is completed, you must ask to be released from monitoring. At that point they will search for any reason to keep you under monitoring. This could be dilute urines, daily check ins or a week where you did not attend mutual aid meetings. Every certification and license which you apply for will likely ask you if you were under a monitoring program/ have been treated for substance use. You must give an explanation and check yes. As far as licensing programs are concerned, if you were under the monitoring of PRN, you are safe, however they group practitioners who have had behavioral issues with practitioners who were diverting drugs from work. Therefore, keep in mind that you will be labeled as a sever addict.
7 Back to work and only work. During treatment your only goal is to return to work, however when you return your experience will be drastically distinct from what you remember. For me, I was now working in isolation. Missing six months of my training meant that no other Resident was on the same rotation as me. My coworkers at all formed friend groups. When I returned I was greeted with much concern for my well being. No one would speak to be about my absence, however everyone knew there is only one reason a resident would leave for 6 months then return. My Accdeemic meetings were consisting of attending telling me “I have a target on my back now” and “ I have to preform even better than others” in the light of my time missed. If this wasn’t alienating enough, the majority of Resident events, sponsored by recruiters and my university revolved around alcohol to which I had to give some excuse to why I can not partake with others. I’m fortunate that I do not have an addiction, because these stressful conditions along with the daunting amount of dead and requirements imposed by PRN are enough to make any addict relapse. While I was at treatment, I was in the dative with Samyr stories a physicians whose addictions got the best of them. Physicians who did not make it to treatment, often taking their own life. These stories were presented as a warning. Your addictions will kill you without our treatment was the message. When, in reality I did not hear one story in which the addiction killed physician. Every physician who didn’t make it to treatment took their life after being told they must report to a treatment facility. Perhaps they knew what this entailed and it was not their addiction or getting caught which caused them to end their lives, but the unmanageable and often unreasonable burden that treatment would put on their lives.
9 How to escape So your fucked your in PRN and should be or you should and now your recovered and want to terminated your contract.
  1. You ask to be released early done at 1/2 time ( good luck)
  2. You have “good reason” (no one has ever been let out of contract because of this reason, the verbiage is far too vague)
  3. You serve all your time and they let you out(maybe, as discussed earlier, they would do everything they can to keep you in your contract as long as your practicing)
  4. You can’t practice medicine anymore
10 Layer up butter cup : I cannot emphasize the extent to which legal help is required in this process. You much seek it and seek it early. Lawyers can provide many avenues to you early in the process. Once you have committed to treatment, gone for evaluation or are in a PRN contract , this is very little that you or legal help can do. Spend a few thousand dollars when you are accused and save the 20-30,000 later.
After you have been evaluated if you disagree as I did, then this is the process you must undergo. 1. Hire a occupation, defense, lawyer 2. Prove you don’t have an addiction, this is done by having an alternative evaluator with similar credentials state that either you don’t have an addiction or that PRN’s level of monitoring is not medically appropriate ( this will need to be a multi day neuropsychological evaluation, which will cost about $5000). 3. Your lawyer must draft in writing that the medical level of monitoring is not required such as another medical professional and send this to PRN 4. PRN will tattle on you to the board of medicine. 5. The board of medicine will conduct an investigation. 6. At the end or when they believe they have enough reasonable evidence to the board of medicine will suspend your license or claim, you must comply with the PRN contract to practice. 7. At this time your lawyer will defend you in the state court against the board. This is costly but much less than the coast of a 5 year PRN contract 8. If you win you will likely suggest an alternative level of care such as gonna get therapy every week. If you lose, than you wasted a fuck ton of money and are still bound by your PRN contract.
Overall this entire process has coast me Over all coast:
My finances for this year only including PRN and rent are as follows:
120-200$ every week for testing 480-800/ month
65 every week for therapy 195/month
125 every month for PRN group
About 50-69 every month for 2 doctor apts
So at least 745$/month at the lowest
Treatment at the recovery center coast 20,000 for me out of pocket and
I wasn’t payed for 6 months with no FMLA because I am a first year. At the 1 year mark I will have made 26,000 this year after taxes And payed About 29,000 on PRN alone
Rent is 1,000 so that’s 12,000 a year
Just in rent and PRN alone I will be at 26,000- 41,600 -15,600.
I will be in debt by at least 18,000 at the 1 year mark
Coast of treatment center 20,000 (with insurance) For each year of PRN roughly 20,000 Add that to 6 months of attending salary which was delayed due to my treatment time: at least 150,000 Layer coasts along with other evaluations 25,000 Missing 6 months of residency pay 30,000 Coast of 1 year in monitoring: 245,000 Coast of 5 years 325,000
If my case progress to a trail I will require an extra 20,000 in court coasts
Chapter 11 My secondary eval: Dr sushi After I arrived at my treatment center I challenge my evaluation multiple times. Each and every time I was discharged and often accused of alternate mental health/ substance abuse issues to discourage my advances. I was never given the opportunity to undergo alternative assessment, however PRN guidelines state that you can obtain a second option within 7 days of your first. This is a mute point, however, because you will not receive the results of your evaluation until over a week after it is conducted and the second evaluation must be conducted by another PRN hired evaluator of their choosing. During my stay in rehab I contacted PRN multiple times to attempt another evaluation/ legal help. They warned against both stating they were a “waste of money” and “pointless”.
After completing my treatment with the guidance of many addiction, experienced physicians, mental health counselors and psychiatrists recommendations I sought in a secondary evaluation. I chose a highly qualified professional with over 30 years of experience to conduct an extensive neuo psycho social evaluation of me. One that I was sure would be more extensive than the evaluation I received at treatment and more importantly an unbiased evaluation.
The results from my evaluation not only showed that I did not have a substance abuse problem warranting PRN level monitoring, but also that PRN was falling to allow adequate treatment of other conditions such as my ADHD. My evaluation showed my ADHD was not only untreated by PRNs attempt at using non controlled medication, but also in the top 3% most severe presentations of ADHD. My evaluator went on to explain my results by questioning why my treatment center even mandated I undergo neuro cognitive evaluation. The only neurodiverse findings were my IQ, my dyslexia and my ADHD. However, a neuo cognitive examination can be billed separately by treatment centers, therefore they always recommend one.
Chapter 12 Amongst its greed, intrusive nature and faulty accusations, professional recourse network function highly proficiently at the task they were designed to; protective physicians and patients from physicians who are impaired at work. In this domain they save lives, offer second changes and protect the public. When they act beyond their intended jurisdiction by imposing unnecessary monetary demands on practitionersin training, accuse practitioners without proof or act on behavior exemplified outside of a work setting they unjustly and inappropriately attack the week and innocent.
Proposed reform: As a trainee my universities malpractice insurance covers me for mistakes made at work. If a learner mistakenly harms a patient, then the university stands on their behalf. If the learner does something wrong under a teachers direct guidance, then the teacher is at fault. This makes sense logically as well as pragmatically. The state entrusts large amounts of money to hospital systems and universities to train resident physicians. A portion of this money is allocated to malpractice insurance. This should extend to accused impairment.
Suppose a training university was required to cover rehabilitation and monitoring of a resident of whom they claim is impaired. Alternatively they have the option of firing the trainee. This would reduce the number of innocent trainees being accused of impairment, make the process of rehabilitation more fair and provide a better use for tax payer derived dollars, which hospital systems are given to train residents. The truly impaired could still seek help, less false accusations would be made and with the employers having the ability to fire at the moment of impairment, there would be less chance of impairment at work.

2024.05.16 09:23 HeartSongAndSage Left on the hook for 5k, blocked by co-liable party. Small claims court?

Last year I helped my boyfriend at the time apply for an apartment. It was then understood that I might move in later, but he moved in alone and assumed payments alone, as he assured me over and over he could do. He had pushed pretty hard and convinced me there were reasons he couldn’t qualify that didn’t matter, he just needed the boost. He thanked me and told me he knew I didn’t have to do it. I thought I’d done an honest person a favor. A short time later we broke up, and a few months after that he told me he couldn’t afford the apartment anymore and was moving out. He told me he would handle everything and since we were on good terms, I saw no reason to doubt him and carried on with my life.
Fast forward to now, I get a letter from a debt collection office asking for 5k. I call him and ask what happened. He acts shocked and says he thought he paid everything. He tells me he’ll get to the bottom of it and call his mom, who is a lawyer. Then, he doesn’t get back to me. I wait a bit and then follow up. From there, it was like a flip switched. He tells me it’s my problem, deal with it myself and to leave him out of it, then blocks me.
I consult the apartment management, a lawyer, and the collection office. I find out he simply stopped paying the apartment and moved his stuff out, ignoring the 60 day paid notice, and racking up legal fees to boot. I also discover that it’s a joint debt, as we signed the lease together. If nothing gets paid, we both get sued. If I pay, he’s no longer liable. I suspect he was advised by his mom that he was free to ignore me and that I would have to do something about it or face consequences myself.
I’m gobsmacked, hurt, and unsure how to proceed. I was advised that if he is completely incommunicado, my only recourse is to pay it in full and pursue small claims court. Is this true? And if so what can I expect?

2024.05.16 09:08 SAlutaTioNsmybean GREEDY PROPERTY OWNERS

I've been working at a childcare center for a few months now it's an amazing little family run center, all the children there love it and many of their parents have sent multiple children throughout age 0-4. This center is like a second home to these children and the staff, it's been running for 30 years now and some of the staff have been here since day 1. One of the student educators is a 16 year old girl who got into childcare because she was enrolled in the center as a baby and loved the staff so much and maintained a connection. And just like that it's going to be closed down next week due to the property owner refusing to renew the lease, this greedy soulless person is going to knock down the entire building which is an old redone stone house as well as the amazing garden and yard and they're going to replace it with an apartment duplex because the center isn't making them enough money. 30 years of community and memories and growing children smashed to pieces in an instant I can't even contain my rage how can someone be so cruel ITS A CHILDCARE CENTER Im just at a loss the staff and director fought so hard and offered everything they could to renew the lease but at the end of the day an apartment duplex will make the owner more money.

2024.05.16 09:02 BeanBean444 Found a single roach in my apartment (after living here for a full year) - Is my panic unnecessary? Please help.

I’ll provide as much context as possible because, well, I am “full tilt” or ready to tell my landlord I want to void my lease renewal and pack my bags.
I’ve lived in my Boston apartment for a full year now, just renewed 2 days ago. I live right in downtown (near the back Bay Area) in a nice condo building (old building but nice units). There are probably 25 units in my building, I am on the first floor (but there are still units below me). I have never seen a roach.
My apartment has a TON of windows, I’ve had them open for a few days due to nice weather, but they all have screens. Today, after a small light rainstorm (a few really nice weather days before this), I noticed my 3 cats all losing their mind and all of a sudden they ran to the kitchen.
Under my trash can, I found a MASSIVE roach, when I say massive I mean the biggest bug I’ve ever seen, it was like 2 inches long (picture below) - my cats were trying to kill it. I killed it, sealed it in an old candle, wrapped it in a trash bag, and immediately threw it in the dumpster outside.
After this, I searched my entire apartment (didn’t find anything), scrubbed the F out of my kitchen and living room, mopped all the floors, cleaned my cat box, etc.
My apartment is already very clean, my girlfriend and I are very clean people, but I instantly panicked because to me cockroaches = fear and a terrible living situation.
My question is, what type of cockroach is this? Should I be panicked? What should I do to make sure nothing bad happens? And do I need to contact my landlord?
Please bear with me, as I have serious anxiety and I’m entirely freaking out at the moment. Thanks in advance and ANY advice is greatly appreciated.

Organic Farming Certification Requirements: A Comprehensive Guide

Introduction

Organic farming has seen a significant rise in popularity over the past few decades, driven by increasing consumer demand for healthier and environmentally sustainable food options. Certification is a crucial aspect of organic farming, assuring consumers that products meet established organic standards. This blog will delve into the requirements for organic farming certification, covering key factors such as eligibility, standards, processes, and benefits.
https://preview.redd.it/cpunzbcxkq0d1.jpg?width=612&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6fa04777b958f2bd525b3453ec100ad37bdec076

Understanding Organic Farming

Organic farming emphasizes using natural processes and inputs to enhance soil fertility and crop productivity. It avoids synthetic chemicals and genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and relies on crop rotations, green manure, compost, biological pest control, and mechanical cultivation to maintain soil health and productivity. The goal is to create a sustainable and eco-friendly agricultural system.

Why Certification Matters

Certification serves several critical purposes:
  1. Consumer Trust: Certification assures consumers that their products are genuinely organic and produced following stringent standards.
  2. Market Access: Certified organic products often have access to specialized markets and can command premium prices.
  3. Environmental Impact: Certified organic farming promotes environmental sustainability by minimizing chemical usage and enhancing biodiversity.
  4. Regulatory Compliance: Certification helps farmers comply with national and international organic farming regulations, facilitating trade.

Key Certification Bodies

Various certification bodies exist globally, each with specific standards and processes. Some of the well-known certification bodies include:
  • USDA Organic (United States Department of Agriculture)
  • EU Organic (European Union)
  • IFOAM (International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements)
  • Soil Association (United Kingdom)
  • JAS (Japanese Agricultural Standard)
Each body has its criteria and standards, but there are commonalities in the principles they follow.

Steps to Obtain Organic Certification

The process to obtain organic certification generally involves several steps:
  1. Preparation and Eligibility
Before applying for certification, farmers must ensure their practices align with organic standards. This involves:
  • Converting Land: Fields must undergo a transition period, typically three years, during which synthetic chemicals and prohibited practices are phased out.
  • Training and Education: Farmers should educate themselves about organic farming practices and standards. Many organizations offer training programs and resources.
  • Documentation: It is essential for certification to keep detailed records of farming practices, inputs used, crop rotations, and field histories.
  1. Application Process
Once prepared, farmers can apply to a certification body. The application typically includes:
  • Application Form: Detailing farm size, location, crops grown, and management practices.
  • Organic System Plan (OSP): A comprehensive plan describing how the farm will comply with organic standards, including pest management, soil fertility practices, and use of organic inputs.
  1. Inspection

A crucial part of the certification process is the on-site inspection:

  • Scheduling an Inspection: They will schedule an inspection.
  • Inspection Visit after applying: An inspector visits the farm to verify that the practices described in the OSP are being followed. This includes examining fields, storage areas, and equipment and reviewing records.
  • Sampling and Testing: Inspectors may take soil, water, and crop samples to test for compliance with organic standards.
  1. Evaluation and Certification Decision
After the inspection, the inspector submits a report to the certification body. The certification body reviews the report and decides whether to grant certification. The decision is based on:
  • Compliance with Standards: Ensuring all practices align with organic standards.
  • Record Keeping: Verifying that the farmer maintains accurate and comprehensive records.
  • Corrective Actions: If minor non-compliances are found, farmers may need to implement corrective actions before certification is granted.
  1. Ongoing Compliance and Renewal
Certification is not a one-time process but requires ongoing compliance:
  • Annual Inspections: Certified farms undergo yearly inspections to ensure adherence to organic standards.
  • Record Maintenance: Farmers must continue to keep detailed records of all farming activities and inputs.
  • Updates to OSP: Any farming practices or management changes must be updated in the Organic System Plan and reported to the certification body.

Common Organic Farming Standards

While specific standards can vary by region and certification body, there are common principles and practices in organic farming:
  1. Soil Fertility and Crop Nutrient Management
  • Prohibited Inputs: Synthetic fertilizers, sewage sludge, and GMOs are prohibited.
  • Permitted Inputs: Use organic compost, green manure, crop residues, and approved mineral supplements.
  • Soil Health: Practices to maintain and improve soil health, such as crop rotation, cover cropping, and minimal tillage.
  1. Pest, Weed, and Disease Management
  • Prohibited Inputs: Synthetic pesticides and herbicides.
  • Integrated Pest Management (IPM) involves Using biological pest controls, mechanical and physical controls, and organic-approved pesticides as a last resort.
  • Preventative Measures: Crop rotation, habitat enhancement for beneficial organisms, and maintaining soil health to prevent pest and disease outbreaks.
  1. Crop and Seed Management
  • Seed Use: Preference for organic seeds and planting stock. Non-organic seeds may be used if organic seeds are not available, but they must not be treated with prohibited substances.
  • Genetic Engineering: Using genetically modified organisms (GMOs) is strictly prohibited.
  1. Livestock Management
  • Living Conditions: Animals must have access to outdoor space, clean water, and organic feed. Confined conditions are restricted.
  • Health Care: Use preventive health care practices, such as rotational grazing, a balanced diet, and clean housing. Antibiotics and synthetic hormones are prohibited.
  • Breeding: Natural breeding methods are preferred. Artificial insemination is allowed, but cloning is prohibited.

Benefits of Organic Certification

  1. Market Advantages
Certified organic products often command higher prices and have access to domestic and international niche markets.
  1. Environmental Sustainability
Organic farming practices promote biodiversity and soil health and reduce pollution, contributing to overall environmental sustainability.
  1. Consumer Confidence
Certification provides consumers with assurance about the quality and authenticity of organic products, enhancing trust and loyalty.
  1. Health Benefits
Organic farming reduces exposure to harmful chemicals and pesticides, providing safer food options for consumers.

Challenges in Obtaining Certification

  1. Cost and Financial Barriers
The certification process can be expensive, including application, inspection, and annual renewal costs. Small-scale farmers may find these costs prohibitive.
  1. Record Keeping
Maintaining detailed records and documentation can be time-consuming and requires diligent management.
  1. Transition Period
The required transition period can be challenging for farmers, as they must adhere to organic practices without the immediate benefit of selling their products as certified organic.

Conclusion

Obtaining organic farming certification is a rigorous process that requires dedication, detailed record-keeping, and adherence to strict standards. However, the benefits of accreditation, including market advantages, environmental sustainability, and consumer trust, make it a worthwhile endeavour for many farmers. By understanding the requirements and committing to sustainable practices, farmers can successfully navigate the path to organic certification and contribute to a healthier, more sustainable agricultural system.

2024.05.16 05:47 Consistent_Ad_6458 Tivoli non renewal - Advice needed

Hi guys, a friend of mine has been at Tivoli since last year, and around April this year they applied to move into a different apartment within Tivoli with me and a few others (we are from other areas around UCF)
We received a mail saying that the Tivoli friend of ours has been removed from the application all of a sudden, with them citing his previous apartment at Tivoli has been ‘unclean’. This inspection according to him and his flatmates was done improperly, since the bathroom was apparently occupied when they conducted this inspection, leading to ‘non clean’ status
What could be done to let him stay with us at Tivoli starting this year? Also, if we were to cancel our Tivoli application, how much of the deposit would we get back? Planning other housing at this point because of all the sudden hassle they have caused us
Anyone been in a similar situation before? Have they been known to overturn such cases of non renewal? The guy has been essentially blacklisted from leasing anywhere in Tivoli because of this

Hi - I recently signed a lease for my first apartment (the first floor of a 3 family house), and I would like to bring my ESA (a quiet, well-trained, elderly cat) with me. I know that a lot of people lie/scam about having an ESA, but I have a legitimate disability and a letter from my therapist verifying this. I move into the apartment next month but I have not yet notified my landlord about my ESA (because unfortunately most landlords would discriminate against me) and I want to let my landlord know about it without us getting off on the wrong foot. I really mean no disrespect to my landlord at all, I just want to be able to live with my ESA as she is crucial to my wellbeing. Any advice from landlords on how you would want tenants to handle this situation? Thank you :)

2024.05.16 05:07 Agnostic_Saint Don’t sign a lease at Zislander

Don’t sign a lease at Zislander
It isn’t like it used to be a few years ago. The new management hasn’t been effective either. They are more concerned about how their leasing office looks more than the hallways and the community. It is all about outer looks for them right now. The leasing office and the model rooms they show to people are fancy but the regular apartment conditions suck.
The trash has not been picked up in last two weeks. They charge 10$ a month as a premium for this service. The roads inside have infinite pot holes. The hallways are always dirty. The work orders take weeks to be addressed. The main gate has never been closed while they advertise the community as Gated.
It used to be bang for the buck. Now the rent has been the highest in last five years while the quality of living has gone down.
Save yourselves some trouble and stay away. I am sorry if you renewed.

2024.05.16 05:00 blackhairdoll (CA) Lease renewal and termination question.

(This is in the Bay Area - Brisbane CA ) So I started a lease mid-July 2022 that ended June 30 2023. The lease says that post lease, the contract renews month to month automatically unless we have something in writing .
At the end of the lease(June 30,2023) the landlord sent a letter that says my rent stays the same and everything else is as-is for the next year - I did not sign anything
Anyway - I have a job change situation. And I need to move out. I gave her 45 day notice to leave June 30 2024.
She is now telling me that since I started mid-July , 2022, my current lease extends until Mid July.
I think my lease ends June 30 this year (heck since I did not sign anything for the renewal, I might be on a month to month). And I have to right to leave June 30.
Am I right ? Or am I missing anything ?

2024.05.16 04:46 kmariehagerman My apartment complex won’t enforce tenant only parking

Hi all, I live in a large apartment complex in Indianapolis, IN. There isn’t assigned parking per unit, but there are areas that are designated as tenant only (specifically those spots are right out front of the unit). The parking spots that are designated as guest parking are by the complex’s office. You must have a parking pass to park in the resident’s spots, and you also must have a temporary guest pass to park in the guest area. In front of my unit there is only 5 spots, which is pretty trash compared to the rest of the complex. There’s exactly enough spots for the residents in my section. However, my neighbors constantly allow their guests to park in the resident spots in front of my unit. It wouldn’t be a big deal except my area specifically is kind of screwed because after those 5 spots is a long section of carports that you have to rent. So if there’s no spots out front I have to walk very far and I often get home around midnight for work so I just don’t feel safe doing that. I’ve talked to my complex about this multiple times and they claims they’ll send a notice to everyone reminding them on the guest policy and they never do. They claim they’ll tow the guests that park there overnight and they never do. What actions can I take against this? I feel like they’re technically in violation of my lease but I’m nervous to make a fuss because my lease is up for renewal right now and I don’t want them to deny me. But they’re raising my rent by $150 so it’s not fair for them to raise it when they’re not even fulfilling their part of the agreement.

2024.05.16 04:26 confusedTA6074 apartment wanting a notice after receiving rental verification

hello! im currently in the process of trying to get approved for another apartment before my current lease ends. the apartment im applying for sent over the rental verification and upon receiving it, my current apartment decided to send a semi passive aggressive email to me and my roommates saying that we need to send in a notice or request to swap roommates ASAP.
One, i’m not ending the current lease early, i’m just not renewing when it ends. i’ve already said that i was gonna cover the last months portion of rent since i’m gonna be moving mid june, lease ends july 11th, and its more than 30 days out from that date. why would i need to send a notice over 30 days out if the apartment hasn’t even approved my application yet?
Two, why would i need to find another roommate when i’m leaving when the lease ends? i waited till now to even start searching so i wont be charged for leaving early. i have no intention of continuing with my current roommates and just planned on notifying them around june 1st.
this seems wildly unprofessional, and im now afraid these apartments are gonna sabotage my chances for approval. i did my roommates a solid by covering june’s rent in the first place and staying on until it expires since im moving out the first week of june.
if it was rent they were worried about, they shouldve said that, but should i be worried about this potentially reflecting badly on myself with the other apartment?

2024.05.16 04:25 Prestigious_Peak8407 Hydro Bill Tanked My Credit

Hi guys just looking for some insight. My current lease includes hydro but when I moved into this apartment I had put my new address on my Toronto hydro account. I realized I was not supposed to do this and contacted my landlord who said everything is fine regarding this so I left it alone. Almost a year later and a letter is stuck to the main door of the building stating that the building will have the hydro shut off because it hasn’t been paid in a year. I get an email about it as well and it states that my name is attached to the entire building and that I owe over 50k. Again, I reach out to hydro and my landlord and the landlord assures me it will be taken care of. My credit has inexplicably tanked throughout the year from 850 to 550 without any dings on my credit account so now I’m thinking it’s because of this hydro problem. Would this be a disputable incident on my credit account?

2024.05.16 04:16 ConclusionAny2022 The more I grow, the sadder I get

I'm 25 now, and for the last 2 years since I've been out of college, I worked non-stop. And I don't mean that in a healthy "get that bread" way. My first job started fine, honestly I was making triple what I did at my dead end jobs before/during college. But as time went on, I realized just what I'd signed up for. I was a one man department, working 13-14 hour days, 7 days a week. At some point during that time, probably about 4 months in, I just shut off. My mind, emotions, independent thoughts. This stayed for a long time. I feel it stunted my growth. Not to say it was all bad. I got married during my time there. Eventually, the only person I talked to in the office outside of work, passed away. Being the position I was (marketing and content creation) I was told to film my co-workers grieving for content, during a ceremony they had put together for him. Everyone was crying. Myself included. When I was told to do this, I refused. The following days i was chewed out by my boss, eventually being told I had 2 hours to save my job. I had to "make him smile" with something I had to make. I went into the half of our office that was under construction, nearly fell from some high as hell scaffolding while filming (only to find out a month after I left that the same scaffolding had collapsed a few weeks later and forced an older contractor into retirement due to his injuries) rushed back and made the most god awful video I've made in my life. All within 2 hours. My boss got in my face, told me it was awful, told me if I wanted to keep the job I had to step up... I quit the next day. Walked in, had all my personal equipment packed by noon, and left without saying a word to anyone. A few weeks later, I found a new job, same position. At first it was going well. I enjoyed it. But yet again, after just a few months, My capabilities were taken advantage of. I don't like to brag, but I do feel like im good at what I do, and I'm proud of that fact. But that second job tried to milk me dry, and I let it happen. I was there for about 10 months and every day was worse than the last. Quickly building back up to 13-14 hour days, 7 days a week. Leading up to the most impossible task I've ever faced. I was asked to make 13 weeks (1 quarter) of content, with 1-3 posts a day. I was asked to do this the Thursday before Christmas.... with a deadline of the End of the week, New Years week. It added up to about 6 working days total. I have never worked so hard in my life. I was awake for 4 days, my only breaks being my drive to and from the office, and working on my personal computer when I got home. I was so tired and stressed I was physically and visibly ill. Once that 6th day came, I presented it to them and they got mad that all the captions weren't written. They said if I didn't have them done by the next day, they "wouldn't be able to fund the department anymore" (I was yet again, a department of 1). I walked out of that office, sat at my desk, and applied for another job. Of which, I got. It took 1 month and 3 interviews, because it was a seriously higher end job than the small businesses I'd been working for. When I got the offer letter, I cried harder than I've cried in a long time. But I went in wary. It was a team of 3 (4 now with me) which was something I wasn't used to. At this job, I found the opposite of everything I'd previously experienced. I anxiously tried to stay late at work, offered to work after hours at home, offered to come in on weekends. If you think of anything over the top and unnecessary, I tried it. But I was constantly shut down. Told that my home time was mine and I didn't owe them that. This wasn't just some employee who told me this either, this was told to me by the department manager, and the project manager across many instances. I didn't know what to do with myself when I got home in the afternoons, or the weekends. I started unraveling from a tight wad of anxiety and emotional numbness. I genuinely started to feel again. One day, about 3 weeks in, I started a show with my wife. I won't say the show, because it'd be super nerdy in my opinion. But it's well renowned as an emotional show that can break you lol. I'd thought about watching it in college, years before, but my best friend had just told me about his practice of "rainy day shows". Shows to watch when you were at your wits end and the snap of a finger from just closing your eyes and not opening them.... if you catch my drift... I didn't feel this was the time for this show, but I decided to watch it anyways, because I have other shows on my list, and knocking one off when you're feeling good wouldn't hurt, right...? This show broke me. It forced me to unravel from what I'd become far faster than I should have. I cried for days. My mind racing a million miles an hour, not sleeping for a few days because I was just thinking and thinking and on and on... I was seeing the life I'd unconsciously built around me... and I hated it.... I live in a shit house that's falling apart, it's an absolute disaster in terms of just general cleanliness, my finances were shot, my wife was depressed, unable to sleep herself just from life in general, escaping to an app on her phone for 13+ hours a day (I know this because the app has an insane 13 hour window a day where you can use it for free, with no interruption, once you get passed that they put an insane amount of roadblocks in front of you to keep using it unless you pay. My wife was hitting this daily), we had become extremely distant and basically just being roommates.With all of this in view now, and my emotions running wild and my brain going twice as fast.... i wanted to change... I wanted to be better... It's been almost 3 months since all this started. I'm greatful to my new job for allowing me the opportunity to confront all of this. But Jesus, it's like the more and more I work towards bettering it, the more I feel I'm drowning, sad and depressed. I struggle every afternoon to just stay alive. My house is cleaner than it ever has been, I'm steadily making repairs and trying to make it a good place to live, I have regular deep conversations with my wife about progress and how we feel, I try to do everything humanly possible to make her feel loved, being a hopeless romantic. I feel guilty for saying all of that though, because I feel there's always more I could do. And while I grow and try, I don't feel it's reciprocated, and she'd be fine where we were 6 months ago. I'm tired. I'm exhausted. But I know I can't stop trying to be a little better every day. Even if I just get sadder and sadder, it will eventually clear up. But it won't if I stop.

2024.05.16 04:05 Queso-is-my-fav2020 Looking for advice, if there's a way to get out of my apartment lease, bought a house.

Hi there, so we recently bought and moved into a house. We had to resign our apartment lease in December of 2023. Our lease officially renewed March 2024 and goes until March 2025. We reached out to our landlord and asked to break our lease after receiving an accepted offer, to start having them look for a re-renter starting May 1st.
We were told we would have to pay $350 to break our lease but are also responsible for paying rent until another renter is found. It's been almost 2 months and only 1 person has come to look at our apartment. When asked if there had been any interest in our apartment the end of April, our landlord told us there were 30 applications. Today when asked, we were told there were none.
We have been listing the apartment on Facebook Marketplace, Facebook groups, we reached out to our realtor for help and we've had zero luck.
My question is, is there anyway to get out of having to be responsible for rent month to month? Our first payment of our mortgage is coming due and we're extremely nervous having to pay for both our mortgage and our rent at the same time.

2024.05.16 03:05 Chris_Kramer My roommate and has been lying about his employment status, and our lease renewal is due in a few days.

My sister and I have an apartment together in SoCal with another guy and the lease has been coming up soon. For a month we had been trying to requalify for the 12 month lease, but his "paystubs" kept getting declined. Eventually my sister and I submitted to reapply on our own and were accepted. We still haven't signed the actual contract yet though. This last months rent came due, and he told us he couldn't pay because his mother was hospitalized and he sent her money to help pay for medical expenses. He was supposed get paid on the 13th, but now his paycheck is "late". Today I found out his phone provider cancelled his service. Out of curiosity I swung by his work and asked about his employment status. They said he was no longer with them. I told my sister, and she's furious that he's been hiding this from us. We haven't confronted him yet, and we want to know if we can legally get him off the lease somehow before the renewal that's due in a few days.

2024.05.16 02:11 Dababolical What are the biggest flaws to this game?

I want to preface this discussion with the fact that I found this show quite addicting to watch. While I looked forward to watching the show every Tuesday and found the overall cast to be entertaining, I was hung up on structure of the game.
While it appears the show was renewed for season 2, I am worried about the long term staying power of the show. Without great casting, I'm afraid it wouldn't be as entertaining or coherent to watch.
Some of the issues I can think of
Problems translating a game of chance to a competition. I think this particular issue causes the show to exist in this uncanny valley, where I'm not sure how to categorize or even feel about the show at times. Alliances feel low impact, but they aren't non existent; and I think this is a byproduct of how eliminations are dealt with.
I think it feels weird to see a game of chance following a competition of skill. I think the way they alter the competitions by injecting randomness works very well, to add that Deal or No Deal twist. I just think the last portion of the episode is where the cohesion falls apart to me. It really robs the game of strategy.
The island serves no greater purpose to the game. Aside from being a nice backdrop to the competition, it feels like they under utilized the island. I know there were some challenges involving the water and the trees, but it seems to be nothing more than an expensive backdrop. I don't need this to be Survivor mixed with Deal or No Deal, but I think the island setting could have been better incorporated.
The game show as a result, overly relies on casting. I know all game shows rely on casting to inject entertainment into the show, but I feel that Deal or No Deal Island depends on it in a way that is not healthy for the show. I draw this conclusion from everyone's opinion on Rob's participation. There are a lot of people who claim they wouldn't have watched it without Rob.
If anyone has any other points I missed or thinks I'm wrong, I'm curious to hear. I really like this show and want it to stick around, but think it has some fatal flaws that will doom it.
