Scene at the Doctor's Office

Doctor: "Hello, FishyGirl. How are you feeling?"

FishyGirl: "Well, I have mastitis, so my breast hurts and I'm exhausted. Otherwise, good."

Doctor: "What makes you think you have mastitis?"

FishyGirl: "My breast hurts like crazy, I've been running a fever, I'm exhausted, and my breast is pink speckled. I think my milk supply is down on that side, too."

Doctor: "Have you had mastitis before?"

FishyGirl: "Yes, I think this is the fifth time."

Doctor: "Well, it sounds like you have a handle on these things, so why are you here?"

Doctor tells FishyGirl she would have just called in a prescription, and then writes a script for a very grumpy FishyGirl, who then had to take it to the grocery store to get it filled while she shopped with the rest of the last-minute people for an hour and a half. Just what you want to do the night before Thanksgiving when you are exhausted and your breast hurts, made worse by bureaucratic idiots who could have solved the problem a day earlier at far less expense and no wasted time.
