My day in QA ...

what in tarnation?!

... so far this morning, has been interesting; what has it been 2 hours and I just got two reports done that were STATs at CS level.  I didn't even log in on time, I slept another 30 in, my bad.  These 2 reports had already gone through one of our QA people and they were both absolutely incredible as far as the amount of blanks and gross errors left in them.

Boss called about the time I was trying to finish up the 2nd one; said that particular QA is being looked at, may be demoted, or take a cut in pay or some of other consequences befall for such gross and negligent errors (she was talking about 2 other accounts this QA worked on).  One would have to see to believe the errors, I kid you not ... off the wall stuff like..."Additional desires for Viagra?  this is a female with all the info dictated but no demographics were placed where they should have been; QA left a note that MT did not finish typing but the last hand that touched it was QA and it is their responsibility to ensure a quality product, this was nowhere close.

Heads are gonna roll on this one.

So I am on the other late file on the system, and I have to chuckle at the "gut & butt remark"...

A 58 year old lady applying for disability (in a far away state) who states she has had diarrhea for 12 years? ...Come on now... states she cannot do anything when her gut and butt are acting up.  That was all the information that she provided. (and that's more information that you or I needed to know too!)    

and that makes me a little queasy...!  reminds me of Morning Fluoro as a radiologic technologist doing barium enemas!  Oh the tales I could tell...

anyway, over and out for now.  :) Have a gr8 day. 

UPDATE:  This particular QA was banned from working on this one account (not the one I found gross errors on...but another very picky client that she was messing up on); we receive all work through poolscripts set up for each individual QA person, so its easy to do just pull the client name out of her poolscripts and she will not pull any work related to that one account! This client did have an in-service yesterday that she did attend, so maybe they'll put her back on the account.  :( 

argghh...what is with Chrome browser

and Windows 10?  I upgraded from 8.1.

Can't they play together without fighting?  

I'm having issues nearly every night with stammers, totally freezes, videos not playing, chrome browser error that its not responding taking everything to a halt ... and its not that then my wifi is acting out?  I'm not sure what the Universe is trying to tell me ... in any event, I'm not listening cause if something is acting up I will get it resolved, just like I did with this One Drive crap stuff.  It kept popping up EVERY time I started up my laptop...drove me nuts (it wouldn't take much).  That's the most useless program ever in my opinion and you can't delete it.  I was trying to do some research on this Chrome/Windows 10 issue and while I uninstalled and reinstalled, because I was not the only one having issues, however, I am still having problems.  Its annoying to have browser issues when all you want to do is relax at the end of a long day, answer emails, and listen to tunes.

Any ideas out there in blogdom?

Go ahead, I'm listening...

goodbye July ... hurry up and pass August

August is such a hard month for me, so much pain and heartache. I have exceeded my limit now, but I operate in survival mode and this month, I know, too shall pass. I took Friday off because I just couldn't do it one more day. Tomorrow is already here and I'm not sure I can do it tomorrow. In fact, I'm not sure about anything right now to be honest. Its amazing how strong one can appear to those outsiders and deal with demands of the day, but underneath there is a profound sadness~

Months come and go ~ and still ... the pain is always just a scratch below the surface. Some days I feel myself drowning in my own emotional and physical exhaustion ... Could I absolve myself of all responsibilities and disappear into nothingness, to no man's land, remove myself out of my past, present and future -- from anything and everything that is ... its never that easy. Is death the only escape?

so I just breathe and grieve --- what else is there to do... try to remember or long to forget.

Busted ...

"Don't Look At Me In That Tone of Voice...."

I'm sure the teen gave me this glare ... and she didn't hesitate to voice her objections at 3 o'clock in the morning to my finding her downstairs with the door open, lights on everywhere and her getting ready to entertain with a girl standing on my porch ... at 3 AM? "We weren't going to sneak out she says...." really? Just exactly what were you planning at 3 o'clock in the morning?! The surprise of being caught on their faces was priceless! Get your butt upstairs ... "Can I spent the night with Kiera?" seriously? at 3 AM you are asking me to spend the night with Kiera? Mind you this kid walked nearly 14 blocks from where she lives? After I had gone back to bed I worried about the safety issue of this kid getting back home that time of night, even though I had the feeling she was not alone. The cops patrol quite often in this neighborhood and I wouldn't be surprised if she got a courtesy ride and if she did, her mother would be informed of such. I would have called her mother myself if I had her phone number. Yes ... it's going to be a battle royale today coz she isn't going to take well to being grounded ... also earlier yesterday she told me she was at the mall when in fact she was at the mall (at some point) but she neglected to tell me she was somewhere else ... (the mall does not have hardwood floors, fireplace and pics above it) taking pictures at someone's house and then posting them to Facebook pretty much tells on yourself ... and was hanging with a friend that she knows I don't approve of ... complete with pictures on Facebook and with the girl with your shirt on just confirms you lying about it.

Really?

Oh the drama! and the update

Well, I can't help myself from watching "The Bachelorette" ... I know, I know ... and tonight's episode was sad for a sweet guy, Chase.  At least he came back to give JoJo his blessing to to follow her heart regardless of him feeling totally deflated.  A true gentleman this guy...but it appears that tomorrow night its the "bachelors tell all" and what a crazy bunch of bachelors this season in the house, especially Chad.  Is anybody else watching or following this?

once you get sucked into watching one Bachelor or Bachelorette series, the next one comes along and you get sucked in again! Who will she choose?  I am not sure what she sees in Robbie and I'm not sure Jordan was for her either ... but it ain't up to me! My money was on Chase.  :( poor guy.   Well it appears that some of these bachelors will be gracing the show "Bachelors in Paradise" coming August 3rd I believe.  You know you're gonna tune in.. I will...hahaha!

Why do I watch such stuff? cause I'm a sucker for love I suppose.

UPDATE:  and the final rose this Monday night 8/1 goes to ...

Jordan Rodgers!  Everybody else thought Robby was the best choice but one has to follow their heart...and that's how that love story played out.

I thought that is what the doctor said ...

 

While QA'ing reports, doctor says "The patient lives in "Boring" with his wife" ... so sure enough in order to verify this, Google says there is a Boring, Oregon ... and supposedly a most exciting place to be! ... according to the sign ... I wonder if the locals think so! ... it never ceases to amaze me the name of some towns and perhaps the stories behind how they got their names...like Accident, Maryland for example...LOL

Caged Up ...

 

Lately its been work, work, and more work and I've felt caged in due to all the services coming into the home directly after work; this is making for some long days.  Little Queenie has not been the most cooperative teen, however considering she was gone a total of 18 months altogether counting both times, what was I expecting? a perfect child with no further issues?  Speaking of caged up, and some anger rightly so, I'm sure she felt rather caged up and confined as well.  Fact is she has a new counselor whom she met for the first time Monday, so I am hoping that at least she can open up and get some feelings out and spewing less anger out.  She put on her Facebook page a 'crying face' and talk about not having her mother/father in her life, only to state that she had a fuss with her mother, who is 3,000 miles away, and I lent an ear to possibly get her to open up about it, but she refused to talk about it.  I am constantly surveying her Facebook and chats (everything I can do on my smartphone) to make sure she isn't inappropriate and/or editing comments made by others.  She does have some really nice kids she talks to online however.   Its only a matter of just a few short weeks before school gets in session again, that will at least give her more routine instead of staying up all night and sleeping all day. I think this is the new teen phenomena, staying up all night on Facebook or snapchat, and then sleeping all day.  However, she doesn't know that I am the Wifi Queen around here and Yours Truly just blocked snapchat altogether and will allow her some social networking but after a certain time at night ... oopsey! must be problems with the carrier, and/or in the line.  Amazing she hasn't caught on yet but there are such things as Parental Controls on the router.  Its been a godsend.

Yesterday it was shopping for school clothes and today will be shopping for supplies.

However, guess who had the night off and no services yesterday? Yep, Yours Truly.  Indeed I felt like a free bird and totally enjoyed it, actually more than I should have! :)
