Got the home field advantage anytime I swing a bat

Here at the dr office with the boy for his drug retest and I have to say - they suck

We have standing lab orders for the boy to be able to drop in and get tested but it requires a trip through the grinning-idiot-gauntlet.

They have now asked me 3 times for anthony's last name, and when I answer they say "LAST name....?" I get it, we have two first names, fine. Then they check the same file cabinet, even though I told them the orders need to be generated and if they check anthonys chart they'll see what I'm talking about. They, of course, don't listen to any of this. Why would they?

Then they come back because they can't find any lab orders and ask again
"Last name?"
"Roy"
"The LAST name is Roy??"
"yup"
"The L-A-S-T name?"
Grrrrrrr




Because clearly, since they aren't listening to me, it is far more likely that I'm not understanding what they're asking me and don't know my first name from my last.

Clearly, since I'm drooling on the floor that is the most likely scenario. Far more feasible than what I have now said to them 3 times and haven't been listened to once. Better to come back and insult my intelligence than to consider the idea that you're looking in the wrong place or not understanding what is being asked.

This is what happens when you can't possibly understand that you might be the probelm





Fun note: while I was typing this they came back and said they've looked everywhere and can't find his lab results and am I SURE it's under the last name Roy?? I have started speaking more slowly.

Lab O-R-D-E-R-S
Check his chart
Oh, and fuck you.
