After much back and forth calling, I was finally able to get an appointment. I get there early because it's been three years, there's going to be insurance and paperwork and stuff to take care of. Door is locked, and you can't get in. So I pound on the door, some little shit comes to answer it and asks me what I want. I'm here for my appointment.

Do you have phone with you? No, you don't have a number from me and I don't take incoming calls from anyone. Took her a minute to process that then she said "You have to wait in your car and we'll wave you in when we're ready." Ok, my car is on the other side of the building. So I wander around the lot for a minute and say fuck it, I have better things to do with my time and left.

If you're going to be afraid of a cold, then go right ahead. I'm done with that shit and I'm sure there are others who will take my money. Looks like I have to find someone new, these glasses are going on 5 and it's starting to get to the point where they're useless.

I thought birds were known for their excellent vision. But yes. My wife recently walked out of OB appointments because they were hardline about masks. She told them she ans baby needed oxygen more than she needed them to tell her she was doing just fine.

I don't think this place is doing the gotta wear the diaper thing, but if they want to be scared, they can do it on their time.

Ugh, went inside the Gp's clinic yesterday for an ECG, first time inside in over 2 yrs because they refused to allow me inside, had to use a one room prefab in the carpark until i thought fck this and had been doing phone consults ever since, bc i'm unvaccinated and according to the Dr the vaccinated may feel uncomfortable being in the same room with an unvaxx and it's about lowering the risk for the vulnerable anyways the ECG machine was inside so they let me come in for it. Derp. Complete clown world. While one nurse was doing the ecg, the other nurse was on the phone requesting an urgent Hospital appointment for an xray/ scan whatever for a DVT (deep vein thrombosis) Clot. Haha ... idiots.

Doesn't it really increase your trust in all these 'medical professionals' who have all these absurd and literally retarded rules for a common cold that was over with last year? Amazing what petty tyrants these people are, isn't it? Maybe you should email that office and tell them to do a Tik Tok dance video.

This was COVID-19 theater?

STILL?

Nah, go somewhere else.

[–] • 1 pt

Yep, still theater. Even had the masked karen walking in as I drove away.

I have to make an appointment myself and I'll do exactly the same thing as you. My Dentist doesn't need one, chiropractor doesn't need masks yet I still can't get blood tests because I refuse the mask.

[–] [deleted] • 4 pts

Ironically wouldnt having a mask on during blood work give off false readings since the hypoxic drive would pretty much mess up all the blood processes in the first place?

[–] • 4 pts

I doubt I'll ever be able to go to a medical doctor again.

You may live longer as a result...

Same here. No more monthly thyroid checks. I know my body really well at this point and can adjust my meds without the bloodwork to confirm it. I'm just glad I did all the testing before the pandemic to get a handle on it. Bummer, though. I experiment on myself a lot and it was nice to get actual number confirmations that my antibodies were going down.

Haven't you heard yet?

The only question remaining is, just how low?

Seriously, go to Costco or BJs. I've had pretty good luck there.

I lowered the bar to 0 and they still missed it.

Anecdotal story:

I work with, sadly, a typical liberal. When I say typical, I mean typical. He and a few other colleagues have a non-work, personal phone messaging group chat thing where we share memes and just make fun of shit, and each other. Good times. He recently posted a text that "he was the proud owner of the 4th update for cv, happy to report cell reception hasn't altered". The next was a redditesque meme "if there's a deadline and enough threat, I'll do anything".

These people are sick, man.

Why is a robotic bird drone going to the optometrist? Shouldn't you be going back to the manufacturer to get your cameras recalibrated instead?

Anyway, yeah this bullshit is off the charts now. It would be interesting to follow that dumb bitch when she gets off work and goes about her day walking into stores, restaurants and nail salons without having to call them and wait in her car. But I'm sure she's just fine with the double standard she helps enforce.

[–] • 2 pts

maybe...maybe....just maybe...I'm not really a bird drone. maybe.

I don't have enough time to stalk people that are a no-value target.

[–] • 2 pts

Good to know I am no longer a target for bird drone surveillance. I can proceed with my plans undetected.

[–] • 2 pts

I said I don't. There are others assigned to monitor citizens. Don't worry, we see you.

[–] • 1 pt

Yep. Every 'service' that pulls that shit and the ones that trailblazer the fuckery over the past few years got the 'fuck off and die' sign-off from us, post-haste.

I'll drive an extra 30 mins to get good, solid service.

I do the same with nigger owned businesses, or stores that have obvious lgbtq-p faggots working till. Have done for the last 6-7 yrs. Fck it, i'll spend my money at White owned/ ran stores and one without faggotry on show.

Was in a lens crafters just over the weekend…pretentious little shits, masks were on. That’s soooo six months ago!

[–] • 0 pt

To be fair about that, the medical wear a mask thing was just lifted not that long ago, but yeah. It's still stupid as hell.
