minus-squareRecallMadness@lemmy.nzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up43·6 months agoI had an appointment booked at my GO. Get there 10 mins early. Everything’s normal, one other person in the waiting room. Other person gets called in. Still normal. Receptionist walks through the waiting room, locks the front door, then shuts the shutter to the reception desk. “Uh what” 20mins pass, haven’t seen another soul. Not tooo unusual to wait 20mins. 40mins, sunk cost fallacy sets in. Can’t leave anyway as the front door is locked. 50 mins later, receptionist comes in “the doctor will see you now, sorry for the wait we had our weekly staff meeting” You fucking what. You booked me in at the time you have your fucking weekly staff meeting?!
