Why do Doctors clocks run so slowly. Is it so they can fit more work in?
Had to take my Aunt to the Doc this morning, her appointment was at 9.30 we arrived at 8.55 (traffic was less than expected). The first appointment was at 9.10 and both patients before her were in and out within 5 minutes so how come my Aunt wasn't seen till 9.55?
Don't get me wrong I know the huge workload they have and we are lucky our family Docs are all fab but what is going on? Are they sneaking out the window for coffee/fag/pee breaks? Or perhaps there is some secret blogging going on!!!

About Kerri
- Chaotic Kerri
- Well I’m perpetually 39 and I hail from the Granite City. I love animals, thunderstorms, movies, liquorice, and jigsaws. I feel like a gazelle but look more like a Hippo, and I can say the “Peter Piper” tongue twister really, really fast. I live with my wonderful husband (Babes) and 3 kids who will henceforth be known as Peanut, Napkin and Mouse. We have heaps of pets and our friends say we live in a zoo
