Okay, so we’ve all been there. Our kids have an appointment for a physical. We go in and plunk down our co-pay and have a seat waiting for hours to be called. There’s two rooms here to wait in. There’s a sick room. And a well room. Now, being a germ-a-phobe myself, I strictly adhere to this. But….there’s always that jackass that doesn’t. That one parent who walks through the door and with their kid hacking up a lung, gunk dripping from their eyes, green shit coming out of their nose in buckets…and sits down in the WELL room.
And the mom sits her ass down in the chair directly under or across from the big WELL sign on the wall and strokes her kids head and says, “I know, I know Jimmy…you have a high fever, the doctor will make you better!” Ughhhhhh. Take Jimmy into the mutha frickin SICK ROOM you dumb ass bee-atch. Now! Take him and his dripping green snot out of here. But no…she lets Lil Mucas Monster get up and PLAY with the well kids who are in turn playing with the WELL toys. UGHHHHHHHH. Makes me cringe. If I had a can of Lysol, I’d spray myself from head to toe.
And what’s even worse than that? THE RECEPTIONIST! She doesn’t say…Mrs. Rude Lady please take Mondo Snot Infested Boy into the proper room…she just let’s them sit in the well room. Hacking. Sneezing and sometimes puking. I’m pretty sure that the office staff doesn’t enforce the rules because by letting them stay that almost guarantees that alllll those ‘well’ kids will come in and plunk down their co-pays again in a week. But this time they’ll be in the SICK room.

OMG! This was the funniest post ever. I was screaming while reading it. LOL! Good stuff…

We don’t have sick and well rooms at our doctor’s office. You take a risk going in to even pick up paperwork.

Oh Lord. I remember those days. Fun times!
Either way, you’re being exposed to their germs… they don’t just stay in one room! LOL In our Dr’s office, people have to walk through the well room to get to the sick room. What’s the point? lol
I’d tell her, in a nice way of course, that she and little Jimmy need to haul butt to the Sick Room. Yep,I’m like that.

Every time we go to the doc. office I feel like dressing my children in hazmat suits to avoid the germs of the snot infested, ill-behaved children who also apparently have never been taught to cover their mouths when they cough, sneeze, etc. SO ANNOYING!!!

UGH, and for what it’s worth, I’m just ballsy enough to ask the snot running kids mom to move his butt to the sick room. I’m not nearly as nice as I seem!

Oh man. I cannot tell you how many times your dialog played in my head while sitting in the waiting room. Drives me nuts when parents do that!

Hmmm, you come across as just a tad angry. lol.
I’ve been there and it irritates the crap out of me too, especially since when one of my kids get sick the other three will be soon to follow. Seriously, people should adhere to the sick/well guidelines, or the Dr.’s office should at least offer a complimentary sterile bubble for the healthy kids…
