Went to the doctor today, (on zero sleep).
Got there the customary 15 minutes early and had all the forms prepared ahead of time.
She immediately reminded me of the $25 co-pay. Which I paid.
So I sat and waited.
Zackly One hour later, i asked when I was going to see the doctor.
She said, the doctor isn't in the office.
I asked where he was. She said "we're not sure.
I said "he's not here, but you let me wait for an hour without telling me that. How long would you have let me sit there before you told me?
Deer in headlights.
She said, "he might be in surgery". i said he might but he also might be on the golf course. You don't know.
She: Would you like me to page him?
Me: No, I would like you to refund my co-pay, I'm leaving.
She did, I did.
Good thing it isn't life-threatening.
Bastages still got me for $2.50 for parking (with 1 hour free validation) but on the way home I was very proud of myself for not trashing the waiting room and not going to jail.
