Buscando Trabajo: Day Ten

Mi amiga C_____* is still out of work and now she has a broken arm to boot. If you thought unemployment was frustrating, try making due with a broken limb. Or trying to get a new cast on said limb despite having no insurance.

Modern hospitals are frustrating enough for those of us who are lucky enough to have health insurance. For those of us who don't, they're a nightmare. You wait and wait and wait and answer questions and then answer more questions and then wait and then go to another area where you get to wait again and answer still more questions. Then if you're lucky, a doctor sees you and asks you the same questions you've already answered twenty times over.

And despite all these questions, the doctors still make mistakes.

I'm worried about mi amiga. Hopefully all this will seem like a sueño malo by next week, but until then...

* Not her real name.
