Not Impressed

Yesterday after work the weather was fantastic, so my family and I decided to have a BBQ party by the beach. Few lithuanian family friends came along too. After all the yummy food we decided to play a small football match. Fun, right? Well guess again! My dad managed to rip his thigh muscle, so we had to rush... um... carry him home. As stubborn as my dad is, he refused to take him to the hospital... he even tried to pull a few jokes while being on the edge of passing out. The next morning the pain was even worse, so after a few hours of discussions my stepmum n I finally managed to coax my dad into seeing a doctor.

We waited for an hour in the waiting room, until it was finally our turn. Let it be known that I am not impressed with the services the hospital provided:

It took a nurse about 10 minutes to type in one sentence into a computer (gotta love them ppl who type stuff in using one finger... think she used the other hand for holding a doughnut), while a nurse sitting next to her was playing cards on computer (a huge line of ppl with various ilnesses waiting behind us). Took a picture which ill try to upload once I find my damn cord.

We were sent to another building where a doctor was suppose to see us. Waited there for another hour, until it was FINALLY our turn, n it turns out it was a wrong doctor (not his area of specialties). Right.... so we had to go back to point 1.

After a few minutes of yelling, the nurse somehow managed to organise a doctor who was competent enough to examin my dad's leg. However, the story doesnt end there... o no...

Another 2 hours have passed and there was still no sign of any doctor. More than 10 ppl came n went, and we were still sitting in the waiting room. Long story short, we had to yell at quite a few more nurses (if you can call them that) to get a doctor.

Summary of the day: woke up, took a shower, had some breakfast. Left home at around four, came back at ten. Results? My dad is still in pain, im hungry as hell, and I didnt get that cute girl's number... but thats a whole other story ;)

World- 1, Jules- 0.

EDIT: added a photo of the bitch playing computer games at work.
