that's right, go ahead, get that yawn out! Its been a long Monday, and a longer Tuesday just around the corner. Ugh.
On the home front, daughter is doing well, 5 clean drug screens under her belt. Isabella is enjoying having her mother around; both are working on crafting friendship bracelets. She is staying in a shelter at night, working with advocates to try to get her help as far as a job and housing. MIL (mother-in-law) wants my daughter to have more visitation with Wyatt because it frees her up to do her running around. MIL is under scrutiny by Social Services due to an incident wherein Rae (my grown daughter) was hit by someone who had a drug grudge while Wyatt was with her, which therein precipitated Social Service involvement by ER staff, causing her not to be able to have visitation with Wyatt (her own son) unless supervised. MIL was letting Wyatt run around with them while they were still using, however Rae is suffering the brunt of that right now in not seeing her son unless supervised by MIL (gawd what a mess still!). MIL's baby (aka hubby to my daughter no good for nothing) is in jail still. One would think five clean drug screens and a full month of sobriety would result in some relief to see her son. She usually hangs out with me during the days as they kick them out of the shelter early.
On the work agenda: more red tape, more watching files closely; too many higher line document files assigned to independent contractors, an increase in expense, but hell an increase is expected with more lines being brought in to proof. We don't have the hourly employee personnel for these long-assed winded psyche doctor reports; everything is going to independent contractors for less pay or being done offshore. Bottom line: The larger the document as far as lines to be paid, don't give to ICs; use offshore or employees.
This stinks. Here's a newflash: In six months I'll probably be looking for a job due to being outsourced.
Yeah, I've read about outsourcing stuff like this. Can't see it doing anything but increase given the pressures to reduce medical costs. One place was advertising to doctors that they could send their transcriptions in at night, and they'd be done overnight in India and back on the docs screens the next day.
