Bite me

Okay - I know that being told that I have a medical appointment that may run over into work hours by an hour is annoying.  But for crying out loud, do NOT act like you can guilt me into either moving it or canceling it.  It is an appointment that was set up by the auto scheduling at the VA.  Not a lot that I can do about it unless I want to wait weeks and weeks to find one that is convenient for you. 

Uh, no. 

Yes, I know that my last appointment there ended up running almost the entire day.  It was for my initial visit.  I had an initial interview with the NP to go over my medical history and problems, lab and blood work, and EKG, a second consultation with the NP and a trip to the pharmacy.  There was a lot to be done, and unfortunately it takes time.  Suck it up.  My girlie appointment is at 1030, and work isn't until 1200 that day. I should be in by 1300 at the latest.  Considering that it is complete full coverage for all medical - including prescriptions - at no cost to me (or you), I'm not going to bitch at them about it. 

Of course, this is the same call center job that mentioned that I need to wear hose with skirts.  Uh, my skirt is one one that I have to be careful not to step one because of the length.  You could see approximately one inch of flesh on each foot. Oooohhhh. My bad. What the hell was I thinking not wearing pantyhose to a call center in Oregon when my skirt was only ankle length?
