Bubba Had Shingles
Those of us who spend much time in a doctor's office should appreciate this! Doesn't it seem more and more that physicians are running their practices like an assembly line? Here's what happened to Bubba:
Bubba walked into a doctor's office and the receptionist asked him what he had. Bubba said: 'Shingles.' So she wrote down his name, address, medical insurance number and told him to have a seat.
Fifteen minutes later a nurse's aide came out and asked Bubba what he had.
Bubba said, 'Shingles.' So she wrote down his height, weight, a complete medical histor y and told Bubba to wait in the examining room.
A half hour later a nurse came in and asked Bubba what he had. Bubba said, 'Shingles.' So the nurse gave Bubba a blood test, a blood pressure test, an electrocardiogram, and told Bubba to take off all his clothes and wait for the doctor.
An hour later the doctor came in and found Bubba sitting patiently in the nude and asked Bubba what he had. Bubba said, 'Shingles.' The doctor asked, 'Where?'
Bubba said, 'Outside on the truck. Where do you want me to unload 'em??'

I almost fell out of my chair laughing when I received this. I thought it was hilarious, also. I will only wait 1 hr at the doctors office and then I reschedule. My time is just as valuable as the doctors although they don't see it that way. If they would not schedule appointments every 15 minutes, delays would not occur. Thanks for visitin'.
Lol this is good!!

That is funny....and I bit ! The doc's office is really that sad anymore.
One doc I HAD, made you qualify for an appointment by begging with the nurse on the phone. I gave them the boot !
Don't feel bad, I bit too. You had to beg for an appointment.....OUTRAGEOUS!!

Thanks!
i am telling everyone that joke and not 1 person hasn't had a holl yet.
You know, I think what makes it so funny is it could be a true story. I'll bet even some doctors have read it and thought it was funny.
Hmmmmm, one doctor I would 'cause he has a great sense of humor; the other one, nahhhh.
I WANT TO KNOW IF YOU KNOW HOW TO SEND MAIL AND WHY OLD MAIL OF 1 YEAR AGO ON MY BLOG AND NO MORE BLINKING LETTER WHICH WAS GREAT WHY ARE THESE IDIOTS CHANGING EVERTHING GOOD NOW DONT EVEN SEE A STATE ANYONE FROM. WEIRD, I AM SO TIRED OF THE C----
I agree it is very frustrating. I have not had any trouble sending mail so far. I do miss seeing what state in which each person lived and I also miss the feature where I could see who had visited my site whether they left a comment or not. Have you tried greasy.com? It is a lot like the old Blogster and many have moved over there. Sorry you are having problems.
