I've posted horror stories on here before about my encounters
with medical debt collectrolls (collectors), whom I consider
to be the lowest form of scum on earth, as well as regular
debt collectrolls, who are only slightly higher on the lowest
form of scum on earth scale. The medical ones are still
harassing my terminally ill uncle and his wife, my aunt, btw,
since his insurance doesn't cover a whole lot. Like the most
important thing on people minds when they or a family member
is seriously ill is whether or not insurance covers something
and the collectrolls get their fancy commission. These people
prey and make their living off of the misery and misfortune of
others, they don't care if you've suddenly lost your job and
can't find another, or you or your wife/husband/child/, etc.,
etc. are seriously ill, or anything like that. They still make
you feel like the scum of the earth while trolling for as much
money to squeeze out of you as they can so the hospital CEO
and doctors can still make their BMW payments and pay their
country club memberships.
Anyway, this suddenly came to me in a dream last night and I
wrote it down this morning. I just had to share it with you
once I did, so enjoy!
