Depends I would say. I haven't been a NJM customer, but if you pay less per month but out of pocket is high when you have an accident, how much did you save? Of course that 100% case by case and policy by policy situations.

A good chunk of it was.

I fucking hate that thing. I report to the FCC each chance I get.

What’s taking so long?

The point they are making is teachers who provide a much needed service are under paid and education could be better funded where as the police are able to make time and a half sitting in their cars at a construction job without lifting a finger.

One could argue that if we moved budget from the police to the schools, we would need less police because the average education goes up and with more education future adults would have more opportunities and less likely to commit crime.

Your question was

>What's that supposed to mean?

I answered the question put forth. Do you need help understanding such a simple exchange?

Do you not see the part where I told you what it means? I literally started the sentence with "It means".

My post had nothing to do with trump I couldn't less about that man.

It's just general life advice don't be an ass. If you don't like the rules, you are free to to go somewhere else that will let you have airpods.

Or are you saying that anyone should be able to go into someone else's business and do whatever they want?

You're throwing all nuance out the window. The premise is allowed to have any rule they want.

The difference is OP sounds like they did not have their phone out. If they don't see there is a phone, how do they know you have a phone on your person's vs in your car? At that point it's plausible deniability.

However OP had airpod in their ear hanging out for all to see. It becomes a fact that you can't deny.

Now I disagree with this being a HIPAA violation with the small piece of HIPAA I have to comply with from an IT side of things. But that doesn't mean the dispensary can't have a policy that says no listening devices as a way to cover their asses.

It means you're not special and follow the rules.

Having security cameras is not a HIPAA violation. However, failure to properly prevent unauthorized access to those tapes and video of patients going in and out leak on the internet would be a violation since we now know you as a patient visit this medical establishment.

That would be a violation.

Also medical only dispensaries aren't open to the public in a normal sense. Right now if I wanted to, I by law cannot step foot in a medical dispensary. They also have to verify I'm a valid patient as well before I'm allowed through that door.

HIPAA applies to any entity that process patient information and is required to keep that information private at all costs.

Your airpods are a recording device that was actively in use by being in your earsregardless of what you were doing. They are a medical facility.

While HIPAA doesn't apply to you directly it does apply to.them. there can be an argument made that they are in the right.

Now someone is going to counter with cell phones. A cell phone in your pocket is out of sight and no way to prove if your phone is on you or in your car until you take it out. They can't take action on what they don't see. However that doesn't mean they can't have a no cell phones on premises policy.

Either way, just take the L and learn your lesson.

If NY can figure it out, why can't we?
