    The nursing home I used to work in had cameras everywhere and I always thought it was standard for the industry for monitoring potential elder abuse. Nope. They used it to micromanage, get a call randomly one day “the door can’t be propped open with a chair” on a day when the AC wasn’t working and it was ungodly hot inside and that was the only moving air in the place. Or the time they tracked people going into the kitchen to accuse them of stealing food and fire people that had been there over a decade. Or now from what I’ve heard from people still there, using it to monitor people on their phones and a single time you’re caught it’s termination on the spot.

    Healthcare sucks but it can always be worse.
