Fill In The Blanks
(My friend isn’t feeling well, so my boyfriend and I pay for a taxi and take them to A&E. When we get there my friend runs to the bathroom and I go to the counter to check them in. There are two people, a man in a suit typing away and a woman in a nursing uniform who looks less busy than the man. I decide to try going to the less busy person first.)
Me: *stands in front of the nurse, who stares blankly at her screen for a few minutes*
Me: “Excuse me?”
Nurse: *blankly stares at me*
Me: “I need to check my friend in?”
Nurse: *blank stare*
Me: “They’re unwell?”
Nurse: *blank stare*
Me: “They need to see a doctor?”
Nurse: “Oh. Right. This man will help you.” *motions to male typing on his computer*
Man: *blank stare*
(I’m really glad that wasn’t the place where people go for emergency treatment or anything.)
