Yes, but I was thinking something as simple as “I’m cold, and I want to turn the fan off,” requiring looking down long enough for court to say it’s a phone. Adjusting literally anything can make it less straightforward, regardless of actual action. But yes, I only see an interior camera as a disadvantage.

It’s creepy. And it may make me an asshole to say, but I’d never want an interior camera in the event of an accident. It makes the following court case so much more gray, since you now introduce the opportunity to say “they were on the phone, talking, listening to music, whatever” and shift what should be a clear cut case into something more.

I have only worked a handful of “traditional” jobs in which ai could do anything major, and even then it can’t replace any job I had (in my opinion). But regardless, in none of my jobs have I had “too many” coworkers. The only time I’d say as much was when a company was hiring to preemptively fill roles they knew were going to be vacant. Although I did notice bigger companies had the perception they were overstaffed, because they also had no communication with lower rungs at all.

I have a relative who is a doctor. Had a claim denied once from someone that was not a doctor. Next: denied by someone not actively practicing in the field. Then denied by a doctor with no experience in that specialty. Only after all of that was it approved. They’ve also been picky about order of operations, such as not covering an MRI because there wasn’t also an order for a CT.

“They said I wouldn’t believe it.”

Stayed at a complex with a laundry room that cost 1.75 for each wash or dry cycle. An apartment with a washer/dryer hookup (appliances not included, but could be rented for $120ish) costed an extra $50 each month. I’d have to go through more than 14 wash and dry cycles both each month for the hookups alone to be worth it.
