It means I can openly bitch about work (sort of) without some Kroger bot coming in and replying.
So someone needed an inhaler, they have our work insurance. Except they wouldn't pay for it until Sunday.
You know
Christmas Day.
So that naturally didn't work. I had to call the kroger insurance help desk and go "Hey, this person isn't going to be around until after christmas, we aren't even open on christmas day"
And this was such a fucking revelation to the person on the other end that they had to do "research" and talk to their supervisor.
Do you know what they told me when they got back?
"There's some 24 hour kroger pharmacies, they can drive there"
Except
- There isn't. Every single store within 25 miles of us closes at 10 pm. Not the pharmacy, but the store proper.
- It's CHRISTMAS DAY
- AFTER A FUCKING BLIZZARD THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE FROM WEDNESDAY TO SATURDAY NIGHT
I hung up the phone immediately without any pleasantries and just gave the inhaler to them going "Check back if you need to pay a copay"
JESUS CHRIIIIIIIIISSSTTT
