Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.
Rules:
-
Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.
-
Respect one another.
-
All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.
-
Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.
Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.

I used to do IT for a hospital and the doctors were the most coddled mfers I've ever dealt with in my life. I would regularly get calls in the middle of the night or the weekend to fix one of their dictation software. Like... Just type, ffs.
While working at the hospital I met many a young doctor. Extremely smart when it comes to their field, but they seem to lack the most basic common sense about something as easy as rebooting a computer. They're also messier than my 13 year old kid. Their private offices always look like messy dorm rooms
Hi, I'm a young doctor who was raised by competent parents. My office is tidy, and I know how to use basic computer programs. I just installed a new SSD yesterday on my home desktop and I can type 100 wpm. I realize that's not very impressive, but just FYI we're not "always" totally incompetent and immature.
As someone who currently works in Healthcare IT, the dictation thing is so true ... It's literally the end of the world to them if they can't dictate, and have to use their fingers and - gasp, a keyboard! The horror!
It's ridiculous. I've watched them use it and it's definitely slower than I can type and I'm not even a great typist. Especially considering their EMR system has a tool to create macros for things they need to type out and they can just fill in the blanks. They don't have time to type but they have time to throw a tantrum and not do anything while dictation isn't working.
