I had an appointment today. So i scheduled my medicaid cab last week. My regular driver was not available. I got some new, young girl, who was very pleasant. I confirmed that she would be picking me up at 3p. she said if I got done early, that I should call the office and she wood come to get me. My appointment was at 1.30 and I finished at 2.30. I figured that it wa only 1/2 hour wait so why bother calling the office? No big deal I could wait the 30 minutes. 3.05 my ride was still not there, I was going to call the office to see if there was a problem when I got an automated call that my driver was on their way and would arrive at 3.38pm...WHAT?! I immediately called the office and talked to the owner. He said he was on his way to the office and he would call me back in 5 minutes.
He never did.
I called them back at 3.38 . they still didn't know where my driver was but they would get in touch with her and call me back. I told them Fuck that I'll take an uber. I ordered an UBER which would take another 20 minutes. About 5 minutes later my driver finally showed. No apology, nothing. Just Hi! How are you? I told her just take me home.
Before we pulled out of the lot she got a phone call, Guess who?
The owner who couldn't be bothered to call me, called my driver 45 minutes AFTER I originally talked to him.
The ironic part of all this is I had just seen my counselor who suggested that I talk to my doctor about increasing my dosage because I wa depressed. I told her medication is not the problem. Until the situation changes, my depression will not leave.
Since that is not ever going to happen, I guess i am just going to be miserable until the day I die.
