I agree with both of them for the most part.<BR/><BR/>Yes I think the sense of loss of control does inform ones sense of "entitlement". The entitled generation grew into a world where "control" was an illusion to many... part of the reason, I think, for the turn to hippidom, the search for the etherial, and the nature movement.<BR/><BR/>And Kim... I love your blog and will refer folks to it... for your sharing your techie perspective. <BR/><BR/>Thank you both for visiting my blog.

Dialysis clinics are required to be a secure facility for HIPPA and other safety reasons, all doors leading from waiting room to treatment floor should be locked so as unwelcomed people cannot enter. <BR/><BR/>If the State (as in public health) were to walk in and see an open door from waiting room to treatment floor it would be a violation. Sorry, we get many a complaints where I work also. And we won't forget you.<BR/><BR/>-Kim the techAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26815389.post-78110000698136397732008-08-12T16:39:00.000-05:002008-08-12T16:39:00.000-05:00hiyabeen keeping up with your blog over last few m...hiya<BR/><BR/>been keeping up with your blog over last few months since first discovered it via another blogger...<BR/><BR/>your comments in this post regarding waiting and 'entitlement' issues struck a chord. i think personally it is more an issue of control and being out of it. having a chronic/life threatening illness one likes routine and the ability to know what they got to do and when so that can live life the rest of the time...when things don't go according to that or someone else changes a part of that routine i think it is actually the loss/lack of control that gets thrown in your face that makes one then get frustrated and angry not necessarily the illness itself....<BR/><BR/>just my thoughts didn't mean it to be such a long response<BR/><BR/>tc hugs<BR/>scampyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
