The last time I took my daughter to the doctor's, we had the 8:30am appointment. First of the day.

I was feeling pretty optimistic that we would be in and out by 8:45.

So we arrive at 8:20 and take our seats in the waiting room. 8:30 rolls around, no call. 8:40, no call. 8:50 no call. At 8:55 a side door opens and 8 doctors stroll out with coffees in hand and make their way to their individual consulting rooms.

At 9:10 we got the call to go in.

I get that they might need to have a morning meeting to get setup for the day, but 8 doctors each wasting 40 minutes, and the entire appointment book playing catch-up for the rest of the day, seems like a colossal piss take.

Why not, like, have your meeting earlier.....?

Dickheads. My grandpa was right back in the 90s when he said the country is going to the dogs. A Tory! In a way I'm glad for him that he isn't around to see how badly his descendants are getting rinsed.
