Holidays stink anymore.

I get worked to the bone because I don't have kids and a majority of my coworkers do.
People yell at me because they didn't remember to use their shopping card to get money off of their gas.
Why? They were in to big of a hurry to scan or enter it back in the store.
Then they don't watch out on the fuel pad not to hit people, manly me.
Then go in after closing fuel, go to turn in keys the manager in charge, they don't notice me trying to hand him the keys. Sends me out into the store to put back "go backs".
Mind you I don't really know where stuff goes in the first place.
Well, End up taking the keys home. Know I'll get yelled at tomorrow about it.
Worked Thanksgiving, Christmas , looks like I will be working New Years Eve and Day.

At least there's the Lounge.

A place to escape. I'm tellin'ya...

It hard to find something happy or funny anymore. Say hello to someone or ask if you can be of assistance ( in my case it part of what we are expected to do at work) and be prepared to get a tongue lashing.

Don't get what is wrong with people lately.

Signed in today, came to the lounge, and happy.

Have the Lounge, may keep my sanity yet.

Can't sue for Malpractice due to having Medicaid under the ACA?

My sister, still in Missouri, has been told she is not allowed to sue a doctor because she has medicaid and because of the ACA.

She has also been told by a , in my opinion, slum lord, that she is $3000 in back rent. He only takes cash and gives no receipts.Big kicker is no contract either.

Told her to go to Legal Aid. She said they told her to suck it up and pay it. They say they only handle battered women cases. And due to fiances, she can't go to a layer.

Now, I know I maybe a little spoiled living in Tucson, but this sounds funky.

I have not seen anything in the ACA that says you have to receive poor care and no legal avenue to take.

And as for Legal Aid not defending a poor person against a thug as this guy appears to be is bending my mind!

If this is a ploy to get me back there, it makes me want to stay more.

So has anyone read anything in the ACA that says people on medicaid can not sue for malpractice?

And those in Missouri, have any heard that Legal Aid only handles abuse cases?

And she also said that renter's rights don't apply to her because she is in a trailer. Any Missourian confirm or deny this.
