[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1506957, member: 18945"] In the 70s, we were told we are entering a paperless society. I was at a pre-op appointment today, and watched as they printed off what seemed like a full ream of paper. I signed each one, then had to (using my hi-tech fingertip) electronically sign or initial about 8 different forms on her tablet. So much for a paperless society. What really gets me, is you have to fill out paperwork in the waiting room, then when you get called to go to he back, have to answer the same questions verbally that you just submitted by form 10 minutes previously. Months ago, I had to go to the ER for some heart related problems, answered all the questions down in the emergency room, then when they sent me upstairs, someone came in and asked me the exact same crap over again. "I just answered these exact same questions a few minutes ago on the 1st floor." "Sorry, I have to ask them again for this floor" "Are you telling me, I can converse, email, and skype halfway around the globe in seconds, download an entire movie in less than 5 minutes, they can talk to astronauts on ISS 250 miles in space while they're skimming along at 17,000 mph and ya'll can't get information from the 1st floor to the 3rd floor?" "No, we can't do that." "It's just 2 flights of stairs or a short elevator ride...Want me to get out of this gown, get dressed & walk down there and get you a copy right quick?" Blank look........ :bang: morons abound [/QUOTE]
