I officially dubbed today as National Tweeker Day. Yes, I know it's misspelled btu when have you ever known a tweeker who could spell? I estimate somewhere around 80 percent of my callers today were tweakers. They were talking so fast I could hear them drooling down their chests as they tried to spit out as many diagnoses and false indications as possible for every single request. A large number of them went to physician review. I probably could have approved a large percentage of those cases if I had just been able to wrench a comprehensive thought from them but it just was not possible much of the time.
In spite of that, I managed over 80 cases today. Between last week and this week, think I made at least an extra $300 for my next check. Of course, not even close to that after taxes. But better ahead than behind or even flat.
My next goal is 100 cases (with an extra hour of work). Think I can do it if I can keep my allergies under control, which have slowed me down a little.
I am having another flare-up of my gastric problems. Nothing severe but not all that comfortable. Wish I knew what I did wrong which may have caused it. Only thing I can think of is too much sugar or the frozen yogurt I had last night. Whatever. Hope it goes away soon.
More stages to the dryer thing. Put the back on the dryer and cleaned behind it a bit this morning. Dryer is working better than it has for a while. Apparently that wire had been partially loose for a while and the full current wasn't going through, so it took longer to dry the clothes. That's good news because I was afraid I'd have to buy a new one or do major repairs in the not too distant future. Some things we take for granted when we have them, like washers and dryers. Until we are faced with not having them. Not a great tragedy. Lived a lot of years not having them. Just a pain when all the laundromats near me close at stupidly early hours, like 6 PM.
Okay, got stuff to do around here.
