Don't Answer That.

 I can be so petty.  *giggle*


Me: "Well, as I was saying, management of Fluffy's problem can be challenging and..."

Client's Cell Phone:  "RING!          RIIIIIIIIIINNNNG!"

Me: "..."

Client (holding one finger up in the air at me as she answers, then turning away from me):  "Hello?  (blah blah blah...)"

Me:  "I'll just go finish up with something else while you take that.  I'll be right back."



And that's when I go get caught up on ALL TWENTY of my active Words with Friends games.  *giggle*

  1. I don't even bother with an explanation. I just leave them in the exam room for 20 minutes or so, and get myself a cup of coffee. I mean, we have "No Cell Phone" signs prominently displayed in the exam rooms. I figure if I give them enough time they'll be able to figure out what the sign says.

    Dr. Wife: AS I WAS SAYING, GEEGEE'S ARTHRITIS SHOULD BE HELPED BY...
    Client: *tells person on other end to call back later* That was rude! I was clearly on the phone!
    Dr. Wife: Well, you decided to yell at me while I was listening to your dog with my stethoscope. I thought I'd be just as polite. You know, when in Rome...*smile*
