What is it with going to a doctor these days ? Whatever happened to going into some small office and some old cranky receptionist would open the little shaded glass window in front of her, you would tell her your name, and then sit on some ugly chair til you got called in to see the doctor ?
Guess what boys and girls ????? Them, there days are long gone and are not coming back. Welcome to 2010 at the disco-doctors office with the new and improved look, feel, and modern day decor. Now we come into a lavishly , large, well lit reception area with only young girls behind the spectacular looking open area they are working in. There is no more one person doing all this, but now there are probably 4 or 5 girls running around doing I don't know what. So, instead of waiting for that glass opening to magically open, your standing there for 5 minutes waiting for one of those girls to run out of steam and eventually come over to you , smile, and ask you if you have an appointment. No......dumb ass, I don't have an appointment. I only drove here for 30 minutes to look at your ugly face????? (why are there no guys doing this job). OK.......here we go........Your finally checked in and asked to fill out a ridiculous 4 page form about all kinds of stupid questions that no one will ever look at. I guess it is only for insurance purposes. When you return the form to Nurse Rachid, she will tell you to please have a seat and that the doctor is running a little late. (what else is new ?)
But alas, all is not lost.....This new and spacious waiting room is equipped with everything. There is at least one huge flat screen TV hanging from a wall, there is coffee in the corner and usually some cookies or other goodies. Some have a nice little display of cold drinks, and there are more magazines with names that I never knew existed.
So with all this wonderful crap going on in the waiting room, and all the wonderful food and drinks, and all the wonderful comfort................There is still one thing that is constant......................Your going to have to wait, as the doctor is running late.
