Shit. It has started. The other day, a patient brought a gun in to the clinic.

This story reminds of one on notalwaysright.com, a site for sotries about dealing with irate customers and the like.

A cashier at a store relates to the poster that she's had several customers get out of paying by threatening her with a gun. It even has the obligatory business about "the right to be an asshole", etc. And yet, evidently, no one called the police, although it had happened repeatedly.

Oh, and of course, the poster made sure to mention their imaginary, vicarious generosity, as they told the store manager she should get that cashier a gift card or something.

Nice pull! That thread has gotten so long, hard to navigate at times.  Thanks!

I run the connectivity and infrastructure group for a company that connects 3 major hospital systems, all of their branches, providers, clinics, primary care offices, labs.. ALL of them. I've been doing this for 9 years, this spans 8 states and several hundred locations... and I also oversee the voice, paging and alert systems for said facilities. Not ONCE has anything like this ever happened. It's part of my job to see every emergency page or 911 call that is executed. There have been threats, fights and even a couple of knives... but not once have I heard of a gun being drawn, especially as described (which is defined as armed robbery).
Bull effin bunk.

There was an incident at our area's major trauma hospital several years back where someone walked in, pulled a pistol, shot and killed a patient.  So it does happen I suppose. 

As for the dummie... this was a bouncie story that fell flat and she had to walk it back.  Someone walks into my place of business and waves a pistol, law enforcement will be involved.  Dummie's story stinks to high heaven and is not entertaining in the least.  Got to have cops, bushes and evil rethugs getting converted to make a good bouncie.

I miss the good dummie bouncie spinners of yore.  Now that was some entertainment!

Hmmmm, the alleged perp was in the state narcotics DB? Sounds like perp might not legally be allowed to own a gun.

This clinic does not have a policy to call the police when someone waves a gun and demands drugs. 

Not a place I would want to work at, the clinic "manager" is reckless and puts patient safety at great risk.

There should be a police report on this incident, I would assume...

71. You're a PA, and you didn't call the cops?

Were you not concerned for the safety of your patients, let alone your own safety?

I call bullshit, Sir or Madam.

Frank Cannon cracks another case.  Well done, sir.  Treat yourself to some gourmet food, you deserve it.
