Staff Meeting



So I went to work this morning being the good employee that I am. Get to the office and get my op all ready for my first patient of the day and then I attend early morning huddle, which consists of the doctors reviewing the schedule and what patients are coming in and what procedures are being done, while all the hygienists are busy looking at all their charts and what their patients need. Well, everyone knew that there was a staff meeting scheduled during lunch today that MANDATORY so while we are all busy looking through charts the doctors mention that all the patients in the afternoon are fake or at least their appointments are.... Dust my ears, I said to myself--are the doctors being serious--Did I hear that right. We don't have to work after 1 o'clock today--we sure enough didn't. Our MANDATORY staff meeting is to go to lunch and then attend a movie (which by the way was Eagle Eye, hence the picture)--all the while being paid to be present. That's right--our staff meeting was basically paid relaxation. How awesome is that. I've have to say very awesome. I work for some fabulous doctors. Kudos docs!! This was technically my first staff meeting at my new office and I have to say that the rest of the real staff meetings are probably going to suck from here on out compared to this one. I think real business might need to be discussed at those ones, bummer, huh!!? But today was a day of enjoyment and I loved it. P.S. My coworkers are hilarious especially "Jelly Cuff"--who cracks me up every day that she works. And another thing, after watching Eagle Eye, I think I need to return my new cell phone and never be on my computer again. So if you don't hear from me in a little while, you now know why......
