Mine is a nice man, but that's about all.

And I had the first appointment slot for the day supposedly!<br /><br />For later appointments I normally phone at about the time I should be leaving home to make it there in time to find out how late he is running. The receptionist is good at estimating & always tell you to wait at home for another half hour or hour.Toriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01091419616292144494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-80720411222647511292010-07-29T17:29:34.946-04:002010-07-29T17:29:34.946-04:00National Geographic from 1981?! thats pretty badNational Geographic from 1981?! thats pretty badSamhttp://www.lionesswomansclub.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-44523794697419067772010-07-29T15:45:59.057-04:002010-07-29T15:45:59.057-04:00Wonderful photos, awesome skys

Something a little fishy in that back story, I think.<br /><br />My dentist was always keeping me waiting - up to 40 mins one day - until I complained. This is not like me but I guess it was an off-day. Now, they apologize if I have to wait at all! I call that a result.Stephanie Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03206167025245206754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-26181380940113116442010-07-29T10:31:18.393-04:002010-07-29T10:31:18.393-04:00Hi Gill!

We really try to be on time in our office, and the doctor gets really upset if we're too far behind--We typically are, but when we aren't some patients really get upset, and I don't know why--Especially because it's hardly EVER more than 15 minutes...I also do the magazines in our waiting room, it's a pet peeve of mine to have ones that are out of date, so I always toss out the old ones. Next week I'll be cleaning house on all the July ones--The simple things in life, which includes having dinner ready when you get home after a long day!~Kim at Golden Pines~https://www.blogger.com/profile/02001523468339091407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-84396640226534914472010-07-29T09:12:26.144-04:002010-07-29T09:12:26.144-04:00Here in the states, most doctors have a sign on th...Here in the states, most doctors have a sign on their walls saying to notify the receptionist if you have been waiting for over 20 minutes past your appointment time that is a life saver here. As for the lady in the pharmacy no doctor in their right mind would give more meds like that if she Just got out of the hospital the day before because 20 T#3's would have lasted alot longer then one day.<br />Congrats on texting my DH and I as well as my children text quite abit, especially my children that is the way they seem to communicate these days.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03234371380267493969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-5274900029211066692010-07-29T09:07:38.198-04:002010-07-29T09:07:38.198-04:00Your Dr sounds very much like mine.

So, we are paying for his wasted time, if we don't show up, I wonder if we would be paid if we sent in a bill for our wasting time in the waiting room. I guess I should not complain as there are so many people that do not have a family Dr. <br />Weather is forecast to be nice for the next few days enjoy.<br />PatriciaPiece by Piecehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11947220369390395236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-14405063710818542872010-07-29T08:13:29.518-04:002010-07-29T08:13:29.518-04:00Hope you'll be feeling better quite soon!

I always seem to be at the end of every queue I get into with someone with a much worse problem in front of me. Even yesterday it happened, only this time in the Building Society, where I was in a short queue behind a man who had shredded his wife's credit card, stating that he had too many cards. Trouble was, when he wanted to use it on the telephone to make some transaction or other, he didn't have the right security details so they wouldn't do as he asked. Therefore, he was in the Building Society, trying to get a new card ordered and do the business that he intended to do on the phone. It took forever and I was going from foot to foot, thankful that it wasn't me, but anxious because I was soon going to be late for my next appointment (at the job agency). Have a nice, unstressful day today!<br />Blessings, StarStella Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06699491230987143490noreply@blogger.com
