She's telling him he can eat whatever he wants in moderation. Including fast food. I'm so fucking furious, because he will legit throw out all of what the surgeon and specialists told him over this.

He's going to be asking for cheeseburgers and stuff now. /sigh

oh God that's awful and utterly wrong!

What a fucking moron

She even went on this whole thing about her favorite candy bars and how she hates fish and ...ugh. /head desk

Kick her the fuck out of there right the fuck now and report her for not knowing what the hell she's doing.

She's already gone but ngl I got her card so I can complain about her. Not that it solves the problem. I can tell him she's only got a BA but it's her freaking job so he expects her to know her shit

I mean I get that maybe for weight loss the in moderation thing works but that's not the same as heart surgery.

Yeah seriously. Ugh. Please make sure you complain about her because that is fucking dangerous since she's considered an "expert"

She told him the heart thing was probably genetic too (it's not. Even he admitted that.) and she didn't know what he was talking about half the time and just ...urgh. I'm so pissed.

Yeah no.

Jesus Christ

wow wtf

People wind up needing heart surgery because they can't eat in moderation, have unhealthy habits etc

And fast food is designed by food scientists to be hyper-palatable: it turns on all your taste receptors in unnatural ways, making you crave it addictively.

The thing is he hates conspiracy shit so he refuses to believe anything like that

It's not conspiracy, it's business.

And I am going to pull everything I can from the library database to show him how wrong this shit is but ugh ugh ugh why do I have to do this this is annoying and screwed up >|

I'm not saying it is, I'm just telling you that he finds anything like that hard to believe

former head of the FDA commenting on hyper-palatable foods

I'll add it to the rest dude but-this is embarrassing- but he's native and he doesn't take things in black and white as proof either

Meanwhile someone who he's been told is in the healing profession he finds it easy to believe. Hence all my fury and headed king

*headdesking

Maybe I can call his cardiologist and PCP to help, but she even said "those guys in the hospital don't know what it's like"

People hear what they want to, sadly.

CHRIST wow talk about undermining jeez

Which is the kind of shit she had NO business saying. By "guys in the hospital" she meant "surgeons and cardiologists" and fuck her. Like I don't get pissed easily but she's done it

In his case it's cultural. He's old fashioned, so trying to change his mind on things never works. But he would have listened to her if she'd done her job right too so in this case

It's 100% her fault. It sucks that he's not able to join modern life but she fucked up. You can't tell someone to go ahead and drink caffeine and eat cheeseburgers when their doctors all say no

But I'm going to try to get the doctors to stress this with him again too. The bright side is he only has money when I give it to him (and I really HATE withholding it cause he's an adult but ugh)

Thanks AJ. And Beren. I'm grateful for the help, I'm just furious at the situation. But I'll definitely point that out to him. And make sure he has no pocket money for a while. /sigh

You need to tell his doctors, they will be LIVID.

^this

Make sure to tell 'em at least, even if you don't have 'em talk to him.

She's doin' a dangerous, dangerous thing there.

She's from a different company so I have to report her to them actually but yeah his doctors are getting calls too. Because I didn't have enough shit to deal with already >|

I'm puppy sitting and doing someone else's job for them at last minute because I woke up today (after legit the first full night -okay day and night I was beat- of sleep since September) to a

phone message that was all "leaving living creatures unattended for a few days, also put $ in my bank!!" And I remember why I never ever want to live here

I mean I'm bit running her fucking errands and I'm not paying her bills, but the dig and the sick client I can't ignore.

/punches everyone

Okay going to shower and get Pops something non lethal to eat and go deal with everything else after. /salute

Wow, who the fuck gave her a lisence? That's unbelievable. I hope you can get her in serious trouble because she does NOT need to be dealing with patients.

Ikr. She was really nice and personable so he loved her but I legit can't believe no one has ever complained about her before

JESUS FUCK she got parking tickets in my car! Those are like $25 a pop around here I'm going to actually murder her

(The horrible family member not the dietician since I legit turned this into an all out rant plurk and it's probably confusing) but WOW I can't possibly get out of this fucking town soon enough

...I'm done throwing things I swear, just what the fucking fuck

I mean I already made sure the second set of keys is hidden now so she can't get the car again but why does this have to be a thing at all ugh ugh ugh

:| Let me guess: she has no intention of paying this ticket she got,

Multiple tickets actually. And my guess is no, since it won't affect her life.
