ultrasound tech horror stories

One horror story is about a misdiagnosis. The ultrasound tech thought it was just a cyst, but it turned out to be a tumor. By the time the real problem was discovered, it had grown and made the treatment much more difficult.

I once had a recruiter who was super pushy. They called me multiple times a day, even during my work hours at my current job. They didn't respect my boundaries at all.

Well, some people talk about the horror of the never - ending group projects. You get grouped with people who don't pull their weight.

And then there are the horror stories of the campus ghosts. Some students claim to have seen strange apparitions in the old buildings on campus late at night.

In a company, a virus spread through the network like wildfire. It started encrypting all the files on the computers. The IT department tried everything but couldn't stop it in time.

One horror story is when a user accidentally deleted all the important data on the company server. The IT tech support had to try every possible data recovery method, but most of it was lost. It was a nightmare as it led to a big setback for the company's ongoing projects.
