I asked the chatgpt box at the bottom of the screen for additional details, and I think it was lying to me.

> I don’t know if I have ADHD (though I recently had some tests done and am waiting on results)
Are those physical tests as in requiring lab results or questionnaires/quizzes?
I am not the OP, but I have gone through actual neuropsychological testing with a specialist to be diagnosed with ADHD. It did come with a several week waiting period as the results were reviewed and considered against my thorough consultation interview, also completed by the physician.

> Have we taken our cynicism at work too far?
> In some ways, our bad attitude makes sense. Many of us made work our church, only to end up laid off, burned out or underpaid. Now we check out, do less, gossip and snark.
To me, this fundamentally isn't cynicism - it's burnout. Perhaps one could argue, cynicism is burnout on a longer time scale.
If you call someone a cynic, most won't really understand; mildly offended. But when you identify it as "it looks like you burnt out 10 years ago in that project at XYZ and never recovered". I really identify with that.
Humans are weird creatures and "undoing" internal narratives we've built for ourselves is very hard.
Largely agree with the rest of the article.
I agree with you, and so does the Mayo Clinic and several other authorities who all state that cynicism is a symptom of burnout: https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/adult-health/in...

Honest question, is this a paid advertisement article?
unlikely because the NYT is currently suing OpenAI?
UBI when?

Speaking of that, hospitals still use tons of POCSAG (pagers) and splatter medical everything over those. Course it's illegal to listen due to a bullshit 1987 law... but trivial to do so with a RTL-SDR.
One idea my nefarious side had was to get the med records of individuals and get the address's house cost, and send scary calls/text/messages shaking relatives down with scare-calls. (Or, get the info and get in league with overseas scammers who masquerade as the hospital, and take a cut from that. Would be relatively risky free.)
Obviously I wouldn't do that. But it would be trivial to do.
(Long story short, pager infrastructure needs destroyed.)
I've had a career in hospital IT and operations. The challenge is finding a replacement that is as reliable and accessible as a pager. The replacement communications products out there have some nice features (managing on-call scheduling, interfacing with electronic health records, etc), but it only takes a handful of outages to get everyone to switch back to pagers "just in case."
