unfreakingbelievable

parental rudeness, coupled with parental incompetence, is pretty amazing to me.

situ:
dr. x must surely understand the value of making an appt!
reality:
dr. x is a very busy man. he will "drop in" when he damn well pleases. his phone goes off 5 times.

situ:
same dr. x has many questions about scheduling for his child. fair play.
reality:
he writes down everything i say to take in our "drop-in" meeting (taking an hour, btw, when i could be seeing students) and then demands to know what his B/C student needs to be involved in in order to get into college, because dr. x is thinking that harvard is an appropriate choice for his son, in the very least.

situ:
same dr. x calls my boss a month later, demanding to know what classes his child should take next year.
reality:
wtf? we had that conversation a month ago. dr. x has no recollection of our last mtg, so i call him back and give him the EXACT SAME SCHEDULE all over again. he stops listening halfway through because his ever-important dr. pager goes off.

situ:
same dr. x calls my boss again the next day. he thinks his kid only needs to make up one semester of english instead of two. and what classes should his son be taking again to get into harvard?
reality:
in the little makeup book, i want to believe i highlighted both semesters. pregnancy brain could fail me here, but SERIOUSLY? wtf. you try to bypass my ass AGAIN, going straight to my boss because you can't make an appointment, nor remember what notes you took, nor manage to focus during our phone conversation? EFF YOU DUDE.

UNBELIEVABLE.

BABY. TIME TO COME.
