Thanks for checking the comments… we've been trying to reach you about your car's extended warranty.

You have one new message and four saved messages. Message one: "Hi. I'm just getting used to the new system. I was in it all last week, but now my password isn't working. I tried all my old passwords and all the ones on the naughty sticky-note on my laptop and none of them worked. Please call me back and give me my password."

• Password manager is a Post-It note.
• Every system we use lets you reset your own password.
• She didn't say what system she was talking about.
• At the time, we had no systems about a week old.
• We don't have access to user's passwords.
• She didn't provide a callback number.
• She didn't leave her name.

While not even his patient, I went along to a family-member's appointment. It was maybe their tenth session. Time's up. Therapist starts nudging for signing next to a laundry list of appointment dates that even I know never happened. Uh, what are you doing? I'm watching you commit insurance fraud. I'm sure many of his other patients just signed in the box. So dramatic fraud and brazenly taking advantage of people is just part of the routine for some people.
