Frustration is setting in...
With this absolutely ridiculous externship job. So they actually got the ok and the grant for whatever kind of research they want to do. As far as i'm concerned, it's all they are just doing to get more money and again provide bullshit service to the patients. But that's another blog on its own. Anyway, with this research stuff going on now, the company wants to focus on getting the research on only the latin population as they don't have any statistics and data for them. So as a result, i'm not even allowed to answer the phone because i don't speak Spanish! How absolutely stupid is that?!!!!!!!!! I don't do anything clinical because their MA is there and she takes in all the patients, does all the injections, does absolutely everything that clinically needs to be done. As for the front office operations, their office manager is there now that she's back from vacation and she sits at the main computer which has all the data and is in front of the window so when patients come in, its hard for me to lean over her to get the clipboard, to get this or that, or check this or that, so she ends up doing everything. Leaves me stuck with doing bullshit all day long! She had me organizing her drawers today! Is that what i'm supposed to be learing? how to organize your messy desk and office? I'm just so frustrated and they don't care much either that i come in late, i take a longer lunch, i take my sweet time completing whatever task i was assigned to do, unless it actually involves a patient, or referrals or anything of that nature, I just don't care! I have two more weeks left and i cant' wait till they are over!
To make things worse, career services at school is telling me they will have a hard time finding me a job because i'm not Bilingual! Sorry for the language now, but you mother fucking assholes, I am bilingual! Just because I don't speak spanish doesn't mean i'm not useful! I can do so much better of a job than so many people, at this point right now, i can do a better job that this office manager! Only thing i can't do is billing and coding because that in itself is another year course to take.
I'm just so really frustrated with all of this. I can't wait to go back to NY. I finally feel i made the right decision to go back. And it'll be a plus that I am bilingual in Polish, because in NY you can find Polish people anywhere you go basically. I won't be turned down because i don't speak spanish. Don't people realize that this is discrimination? And yet i can't say fucking shit about it!
Ok, i'm going to stop because i'll just get more and more aggravated!
