Am I invisible? I had a doctor’s appointment on Monday, one I’ve been waiting for for 6 weeks, since that’s the earliest they could make my next appt. I arrived on time to hear “Oh, it looks like your appointment has been canceled.” Not by me! They said they could see me at 12:30 (it was 10am and 45 minutes from my house). I said that was unacceptable as I had a 1pm appt back in my town and they would just have to figure something out and see me. So they did.
Then today the exterminators were scheduled to come between 1 and 3. 3pm comes and goes with no knock on the door or phone call so I called their office. “Hmmm, I don’t have a record of your appointment today.” Now they are coming next week and it’s going to be free. This is such a pain. I hate to be one of those bloggers who just complains about everything, but I shouldn’t have to confirm over and over again. Ugh.
Oh and the 1pm appt on Monday? That was a phone interview for a job I stumbled upon in my mom’s group forums. I start Friday. I was hired sight unseen over the phone to assist a financial planner at a little investment firm. I’m a little nervous. It’s been a while since I’ve worked, but I’m feeling so much better now and the extra money sure won’t hurt. And the good news? They have a no panty hose policy! It’s a casual office. Like I can wear my Crocs casual. And that is awesome.

That’s great about the job. Could you send a little good job mojo over my way, because I have been looking for three months and I’m tired. :)

Gotta say there’s nothing better than crocs at work. I’m a nurse. It’s comfy and casual every single day I’m on the floor. Congrats on the job. And whatever with the dang appts. Sheesh.

Did you all of the sudden become a superhero with the power of invisibility? LOL! :) I’m sorry that you went through so much with all of that. Often, my OB/GYN would have to go out and deliver a baby and my appointment would either be rescheduled or I’d see a nurse practitioner. Hey, congrats on your new job! I can’t wait to hear more about it. And it’s great that you’re part of a moms’ group!
