My stupid orthopedic guy makes you pay the co-pay up front but at least they take checks and credit cards. Cash only is just crazy!

EtA: another vote for puking on her desk!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Cash only is just crazy!

Unless the doctor has a little drug problem. Then cash is so much easier to deal with.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I hate them, Tom. Not that that does you any practical good, but my white-hot hatred is all I have to offer at the moment.

But, damn. That's supreme weaselfuckery on their part.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Also, I don't know the ways of your insurance, but that sounds really bizarre.

WORD.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I would have grabbed a pebble on the way back from the ATM and then thrown it at her when I got back in the office saying, "That came out."

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

In cash? I've never had to pay any doctor's office in cash. There's no excuse for that, particularly since credit cards can now be verified almost instantly. The desire for cash indicates to me 1) a drug habit, 2) hiding assets from the IRS, or 3) receptionist is skimming.

I'm afraid the first thought that went through my head was "Cash? Are urologists stiffed that often?"

You have an extremely painful condition, and I think you've been treated shamefully.
